Hunter Art Unlock Quests
UPDATE: Kiranico has updated with This page, listing pretty much the same information there with quest names, so I'm going to leave this list incomplete and direct you there instead. However, some arts that are not unlocked through specific quests do not list their unlock condition, so I'll put everything Kiranico doesn't have at the top here. Also note that some arts have additional requirements such as unlocked HR that aren't listed.

Hub Quests
I won't be repeating any of the arts that unlock for every weapon at once in the chart. All of the arts that unlock through the Maccao urgent unlock through the 1* urgent in the hub (Blagonga) and the ones unlocked through the Tetsucabra and Malfestio are both unlocked through the 3* urgent in the hub (Astalos)
I haven't done any Hub quests above 1* yet and don't feel like cross-checking with Kiranico for the english names so for now all the names are going to be "NA". I'll fix them later.
