Mastery and badges

106 badges sit on a hunter's profile, 952 tiers between them - each earned by hitting a milestone the game never states in one place.

They do not all count the same thing: most weapon and tool badges advance on mastery XP, some count kills of other hunters, and some count damage dealt. Every badge says which on its own page.

Killing another hunter pays 450 at every one of the 6 skill ratings the table lists - there is no mastery bonus for taking on a better player.

Targets are the game's own internal names. Not all of them are creatures you meet in a normal match.
