Hunt monsters, that is the entire point of the game, well and autistically crafting armor at endgame but you'll get there later. For weapons it is all about what is fun for you. Each weapon has strengths and weaknesses but they are all viable. Try each one out to see what is enjoyable for you. Early on you may want to focus on 1-2 weapons to cut down on farming for materials, but that is up to you.

Lance, Greatsword and Hunting Horn are objectly the most fun weapons.

why what's wrong with it?

I tried Sword/Shield Greatswords and Lance and didn't like the short range of the sword, how clunky the greatsword was and the lack of rolling with the lance

I tried the Guns and kinda liked them, but don't want to keep shelling out for ammo atm

>>255594810
It gets used a lot and newbies have a habit of tripping over people with their attacks. It's a perfectly fine weapon if it's used correctly

>>255594810
Because tripping everyone when you are using the Spirit Combo not only is annoying, it will decrease your team overal DPS when the monster gets KO'ed or trapped and everyone goes ape shit.

Using it offline is perfectly fine, sure, but online? and fighting small monsters? hell no

how did that even happen

>>255595271
too bad, don't walk into my sword swings like a moron then, unless you're also trying to cut the tail you shouldn't be anywhere near me

>>255595503
I'm curious about this now. Longsword is one of the weapons I actually like using in MH. If you don't use your spirit combos, what else do you do in multiplayer? Is there a skill you can equip that prevents the tripping or..?

I cant wait for the Insect Glaive, but the Charge Axe looks the most satisfying to use especially with those charged attacks.

>>255595410
well it did

unless I managed to throw another one and not even notice I really can't explain why it happened

No there isn't.
It's generally just better if you pick a different weapon for multiplayer.
Granted it might be possible with a large(er) monster with multiple hit points (Lao, Shen, Hermitaurs, Ceanataurs, etc.)

Being a LS user I know both the ends, giving and receiving.
It hurts inside to know that I got to HR solely from using a LS and sometimes a bow.

>>255596109
MH3U has clunky underwater combat, 4U doesn't and also has two new super fun looking weapons, as well as fluid movement and more monster variety. 4U also has online functionality.

I suggest waiting for 4U just because Smash Bros is coming out soon and you'll be able to occupy yourself with that first.

>>255595674
You use your vertical attacks You have an infinit combo; use it X-X-A-X-X-A-etc. You only every use spirit guage attacks when there's a massive opening and you're not going to trip the shit out of people.

>>255596148
There's knowing discretion to not trip everyone who are also fighting the monster and knowing when and where you can get spirit combos off without fucking it up.

>>255595674
There are ways to avoid being tripped but unless you are playing with your friends you will most of the time stumble with players that wont give a damn about tactical positioning.

Large monsters allow LS users to position far from other players, but when you are fighting a Zinogre/Qurupeco/Narga or any medium to small sized monster the guy with the LS will trip everyone when using Spirit Combo

I remember some years ago, me and my friend were hunting Azure Lao in MHFU with end game gear; believe it or not, it never reached the gate, but not necause we killed it, it fucking turned around and started walking backward in the last segment. We didn't see how it happened because we used farcaster to get to the gate earlier, and after a while of waiting, we got back to check.

Shit.

So "The entire monster"? Unless you're fighting something the size of Duramboros or Jhen, they will always be an extreme nuisance due to their attack arcs whenever using spirit combos and the fact that so many of them spam their X+A after every vertical, and it is wide as all shit. Even if you're focusing on the head, the radius of the swing is tremendous and is more prone to trip up everybody in the party than help.

>>255591617

As much as I love gunlances I dont really like that you cant shoot them as fast in MHP3rd as you could in MHFU, starts to reload if you press too fast

Anyone have the PS3 english patch of MH3rd?

The links are gone from the translation site.

Weapons I've tried:

>Sword and Shield
One of my favorite weapons. Takes a while to kill anything, but I love being able to attack swiftly and move around.

>Switchaxe
Second favorite. Everything dies so quickly.

>Hammer
I got to HR and then dropped it. It's a nice weapon, but I just can't get used to it properly. Whenever I'm not playing with my friends it's a mess. KOing monsters is really satisfying though.

>Dual Blades
Dropped almost instantly. I found them boring.

>Great Sword
Just like the hammer, satisfying but just not my cup of tea.

>Lance
Wasn't impressed, but I didn't really give it a chance. Maybe I'll reconsider someday.

>Hunting Horn
Just picked it up. I have the feeling that I won't use it for long, but who knows.

>>255603808

I love the combo they added in MHp3rd where in the end you slam the GL down and if you press shoot it empties all the ammo on it

>>255606875
The one thing that makes underwater combat utter shit is the lack of any depth perception so it was hard to tell how close you were to a monster to attack it. Most underwater based monsters also dodged bowgun shots really easy because they don't stop moving and you're slow as shit in water.

If you moved faster in the water and there was a method is checking distance properly, it would be fine.

>>255606738

Was just wondering if 3U is still worth it with 4U being not that far off.

Where are my Switch Axe bros at?

Evade extender, aggressive rolling is best.

MHFU: Daimyo Hermitaur and Shogun Ceantaur, hands down. I almost shed a manly tear when they weren't in 3G, and I almost pooped a little when I heard they are coming back in 4G (FU had a tonne of cool monsters though, way better selection than 3G. Also, Chameleos gets an honourable mention too, if not for the crabs he'd be my favourite)

MH3G: Nibblesnarf is pretty awesome, I like the idea of a Turtle/Mudpuppy/catfish monster.
I really wish they would dial it back a bit with the "spiky dragon-ish" style monsters. MonHun needs more variety in the enemies, FU had all sorts of different shit, and 3G feels like it should be called "Dragon Hunter"

MHFU: Great Forest / Tower
I really love deep, lush, colourful forests, but the Tower gets huge bonus points for just being a really cool looking, interesting area with lots of stuff to look at and think about. It feels like it is actually the remains of an old civilization.

MH3G: Misty Peaks, hands down.

Monster Hunter really needs to focus on having more fleshed out, cooler areas with more variety and colour.
Honestly, I'd even just be happy if they started porting forward all of the old maps with a retexture just to try and add a little more variety.

This is bad advice depending on the gunlance type you're using. If it's Spread, then by all means do exactly that. For Long you really want to use shelling as combo extenders for poking, and to a lesser extent much the same for Normal, but with a greater focus on slamming and full bursting.

Dara is infamous for stalling the fight with meteor showers and constant swallow attacks. That, and his Glaive outclasses everything because of blast attribute.

Honestly given his sentiment I'd suggest english-patched P3rd, or maybe Tri on Dolphin.

Slime is cool in theory, but ultimately cheap.

>>255598529
The only thing that gets me is the bit about the 5.2 modifier. The modifiers are artificial inflation of how much damage a weapon does and makes it harder to compare weapons. MHP3rd did it right where they got rid of it.

They just need to do away with huge monsters that don't have gimmicks.

P3rd is no easier than Tri.

>>255618178
Tonfas handled blast alright until you start thinking of it's aftereffects

>>255618341
It is CONSIDERABLY easier than Tri though. Even with just the Greatsword or SnS, Great Jaggi dies a good 3 to 5 minutes earlier than it does in Tri, and this is the prevailing experience all throughout the game. Also pretty sure that's where the Barroth nerf started.

>>255618654
The Barrioths were nerfed based on Tri hunter reception.

>>255618654
Giving the beginner monster a less obnoxious amount of health means the whole game is easier? You sure about that m8?

>>255618341
Actually it is, alot easier in fact. The defense system is so screwed up that nothing can harm you except for a select few monsters. Raw damage was ruined and made more casual thanks to removing the class and elemental divider. Monsters stagger twice as fast as they did in MH3 and also exhaust slightly faster. The only fights I have ever even died once to in MHP3rd was Green Narga, Brute Tigrex, and Ukanlos. Not including event and custom quests.

The Barroth/Barioth nerfs were too extreme, no matter what way you look at it. Barioth especially so since it went from an actual threat designed to trip up veteran hunters to a weak ass pussy cat that trips if you so much as sneeze at him. Hell, if you flash bomb him he doesn't even start leaping around the area anymore, he just sits still and takes a beating.

Barroth was done slightly better but honestly the extent he was nerfed to did a lot to throw away his title as the game's first wall.

Great Forest for me, one of the prettiest maps imo.
Only ever played MHFU btw (love it)

>>255620145
The very first thing that happens when calculating the damage a weapon does is to divide by that arbitrary number.
Previously, for example, a hammer might have a damage rating of 520, greatsword 480, lance 230 etc and a respective divider of 5.2, 4.8 and 2.3. So you hit a monster and what happens before anything else in the damage calculation is that hammer is divided by 5.2 down to 100, the greatsword by 4.8 down to 100 and the lance by 2.3 down to 100. MHP3rd simply removed this bullshit and labelled all the weapons with 100 damage.

>>255620440
Capcom made Glaive's sharpness mediocre to bad in order to encourage hunters to polevault often.

>>255619815
>>255620104

So spread GUNlance have more damage potential(using more shots than poking), long is for gunlance (poke shot poke shot) and normarl gunLANCE is for more poking and less gunning and have little damage but is more acceptable online?

>>255620931
Yep.

>>255620749
Are you kidding me? Have you even played MHP3rd or are we talking about different games? I know what the divider is. You can't deny how much shit staggered and died without blinking an eye. No amount of wiki pulled information is changing that.

That's a problem with the health thresholds on the monsters.

The weapon damage is mechanically the same between classes as it was in games before and after.
You said the divider was absolutely needed, I'm just saying that it ultimately hasn't changed. That doesn't mean that there weren't balance issues elsewhere in the game.

>>255620773
Even so that doesn't mean that they should spam it, merely that they need Razor Sharp.

Oh ffs the divider is also the class multiplier. That's the issue. You are getting more bonus from Attack up in MHP3rd than you should, that is what I'm getting at.

The only advantage the super pound has over the triple pound is ESP.

Triple pounds and golfswings are superior.

>>255622342
Duly noted.

>>255622163
the divider applied the same to attack ups though, taking the divider out literally changed no mechanics

>>255622452
also timing. if you can time a golf swing for every time rathalos turns around and faces his head at you than more power to you, but most of the time charging a superpound is more feasible

>>255620931
Yep. That said, poking isn't bad, especially if you're using Queen Panoply on a poison weak monster or have the right elemental weakness, it's just on the lower end of the weapon's absolute damage potential. Compared to other weapons it sizes up just fine. Top level Spread with Load Up and Artillery Lv.2 just decimates everything, but people in multiplayer will absolutely hate you for using it because they'll be sent flying for 50% of the hunt. Given that shelling was boosted and poking nerfed in 4U, this chart will become especially relevant very soon.

That said, proper usage and timing of Wyvernfire and Full Burst on a Normal don't put you too far behind. Fun fact: Full Burst adds a 1.1x damage modifier to your Normal shells. With Load Up, you've essentially got 1.2x (six shells rather than five) on top of 1.1x (full burst) on top of 1.2x (Artillery Lv.2)

Long gunlances are the most balanced of the three, though, in terms of multiplayer friendliness and gameplay style. Decent charge shot damage, no bonus OR negative shell modifiers on full burst, and its boosted move is entirely unrelated to your shelling in general.

considering load up and artillery is already pretty point-heavy on a blademaster set, what other skill do you usually run?

i always run sharp1 guard2 and artillery, i can't see fitting load up into that as well

>>255622805

I've been using the hunting horn pretty much exclusively since I've started 3U, looking at picking up an LBG or HBG set to use as well. What are the best bowguns that I should be looking to build?

It had proper online, though.
You could just talk to people and form tight groups to help each other.

In any case, people really forget how 2nd gen also overhauled the game.
They play FU, see all 1st gen content together and think that the game was the same until it.
Tri wasn't the only great evolution.

You speak like we knew better back then

Then Dos came with new weapon types.

But Dos was so full of bullshit since it was really hard and you needed materials to upgrade armor, and you couldn't upgrade armor/weapons past certain points because you needed online materials.

Only if you were Japanese, though.
Most people only managed to experience 2nd gen with F2.

And really, most new weapons were poorly balanced until P3rd overhauled them. Unless you wished to experiment, your most used weapons up to FU would be very likely to be just Hammer, GS and HBG.

GS/HH
Brachidios

To be honest I never really use Guard 2 that much. It encourages too defensive a playstyle. Learn to dodge and you'll almost never need to guard. Evasion +1 or Evade Extender can help very much.

If you're running a Spread gunlance and mostly using shelling, then sharpness doesn't matter a whole lot either.

Artillery is a five slot skill, pretty easy. Loading is where the pain is considering it takes two slots to get one point and three slots to get two. I highly suggest rummaging through your talismans to find that.

Unfortunately I can't really suggest a set without a whole lot of mix-matching, because there is literally not a single Blademaster set that actually has Load Up on it and Artillery is such an easy skill. Grab Athena and see what you can dig up.

i havent played in a while. but my skills all added up to perfect 10s and I was so happy with it.

Is it weird that I'm really excited to see what MH5 is like despite not even having any 4th gen experience yet? Fist weapons pls that aren't anything like tonfas 'cause those are whack

Can someone explain what happened? Do tranq bombs work on a timer? How did he fall asleep?

>>255625579
>ask for first weapons
>dont want whack shit
That's an oxymoron.

>>255625680
You beat him into the threshold for capturing while he was still in the trap and had tranqs applied to him. That's always been possible.

>>255625680
well sometimes people will throw tranqs at the monster when fighting then place a trap and he falls asleep right away

>>255625772
I just don't want DMC style infini-flight. I want fast impact weapons and punching monsters to death. Also would be cool if you could mix and match left and right gloves though I wouldn't really expect that last detail.

>>255625680
the tranq bomb is a sort of debuff that lasts some seconds. i always pre-tranq and then get them in the trap. insta-nap

>>255625680
Here's how it works.
Tranquilization is a status effect. Each bomb builds it up, but over time it fades. You require only that the monster be below a certain threshold of health and above a certain threshold of tranquilization, as well as being captured. The order these things happen doesn't matter. You could tranquilize a monster before it steps into a trap, and then beat it to death and cause it to sleep -- all within a very short time frame, mind you -- and it would still work.

I suggest waiting to see the monster limp, or getting the Capture Guru skill and watching the monster's icon on the map if it's painted to see if it's flashing before actually attempting capture. These will yield the most consistently positive results.

>>255625680
These will be completely arbitrary values but it's how I've always experienced tranqs to work.

Imagine that each tranq bomb gives the monster 55 points of 'tranquilized' status and that once a monster falls into a trap, critically injured and with at least 100 points of that status, they get captured.

Every few seconds the amount of status the monster has amassed from your tranqs decreases, so if you wait too long to trap, the monster won't be captured.
And you can just throw two tranqs a few seconds before trapping the monster and it will also instantly fall asleep.

Oh yes, it was only in japanese

That didn't stopped me, i still played the hell out of it.

Dos was so hard i had to use the weapon type that was most easy to kill each monster. Not to mention most new weapon types were fucking useless, like GunLance or Bow.

I had to use Gameshark or Actionreplay to do Online quests.

Good times.

You can live without Load Up, it just helps is all. In fact, trying to fit it on any set in 3U severely messes with your chances of being able to actually make the set.
