Recently announced exploits show promise for delivering ways to play X, though it will take time to develop them.

>>127129573
>>127130450
He just intends to ruin the threads for people who filter him. But what actually happens is - we now have a tripfag slave who eagerly makes new threads, but his posts inside the threads still remain filtered.
>>
>>127130739
I believe reverse psychology requires more subtlety than that.
>>
>>127130845
The subtlety needed depends on the emotional control of the person being manipulated.

I know it's got garbage elemental resist and Crit Eye -3, but it looks like a fun challenge armor, want to make it pretty bad.
Problem is, I plugged it into athenas to see if I can plug any other skills, and it doesn't let me make the set without carving or fate talismans/gems despite the set itself already having those skills at max.

The fuck is that happening for?
This a bug with athenas or is the set on kiranico wrong?

It has no slots the only thing you have to work with is your charm/weapon slot. I would say we is the best thing you could get from just a charm but it already has that. Just look at your charms and see what skills you can get from only them and possibly weapon slots
>>
>>127150387
>I know it's technically nerfed because everything else got KO buffs but what else is wrong?
Pretty much that. There are weapons that hit harder, hit faster, and KO better. The only reason to use it would be style points, but even then, so many weapons also look cooler.
Don't get me wrong, I love a balanced, varied party, but 4U just isn't the place for hammer.

The story introduction quests where you fight a monster are basically easy mode, the ones at the gate (there are two difficulties, then an invasion mode later) are harder. The ones at the board just require different things (Kill within a time limit, get a specific rank, capture, trip the monster, break a part) but use whichever difficulty it decides for the gate selection.

The difficulty you unlock after clearing the first at the gate usually adds attacks to the monster as well as giving a more limited selection of items at the camp. Yellow Caeserber gets a really long roll, a second dig attack and likes to start comboing out of his tail's mud sling, as an example. Chramine's slime slinging starts turning into sentient slime bombs. Velocidrome just generally gets angrier and hops everywhere. Gendrome turns the desert into a smokescreen by running round while Genprey try to attack you (he is so much fun now)

Would love to help but exams are really close and I have a semester project where I basically did jack shit due in late January. We can maybe get in touch mid February if you like or didn't find anyone. Actually I also would like some feed back on my conversation skills as I hardly speak English in here and everyone thinks I'm good enough just because I don't have their hilarious (and sometimes sexy) accent.

GS is if you want results, like how Grongigas was in 3U if you played that before this. Coupled with a skill you SHOULD be using at G-rank with the GS, it KO's pretty consistently.
But as >>127151245 said, if you're better with hammer or having more fun, you should stick with it. Just know that you're doing sub-nominal damage compared to most people you will be hunting with.

at least with three talisman slots I could gem some 5 slot skill like Speed sharpening in, with a 2 slot weapon.

brings me to my second question
is there any weapon class that doesn't absolutely Need any skills?
I haven't played all of them enough to determine that.
like swaxe needs EvadeExt to be good, IMO.

What's up with the "named variant" monsters in X? Are they proper subspecies or what?
>>
>>127151739
Subspecies are more like "what ifs", they're side-grades. "Agnaktor but ice-themed", "Tigrex but more emphasis on roars rather than charging", etc etc.

Named Variants are straight up upgrades for the original monster (a bit like Silver Rathalos)

What do you mean? I've only had one and it was easy as piss. No large monsters even and only one egg instead of the usual two.

>>127154145
People hunt rajang because it's tied with deviljho for highest chance of giving you the highest level of relics/charms, and has about half as much health as jho and dies a lot faster. Statistically the weapons you can get from any monster are identical, but certain monsters give certain skins of various weapon classes. You aim for two monster GQs with the monster that has the skin you want in the first slot and rajang in the second, or double rajang if you don't care about the skin cus you're a shitter. Then ideally you try to get one where one of those monsters is in the first area when you leave camp to make grinding them a little faster.

>>
>>127156118

If that guide is dubious at all, it's got nothing on the conjecture you're pulling out of your ass. Modifications to 4U's numbers were absolutely not made, and every bit of data in the 4G Bible (where the statistics come from) and the wikis is directly applicable. If something was wrong, it was the 4G Bible itself.

Is it really? I never see people run anything other than Drome/Rajang and Jho.
>>
>>127158178
Dread baelidae, the variant you fight somewhere around level 30. It's a real bitch of a fight, at least with HH. It has short telegraphing and likes to interrupt any attack animation you start to make, it moves around constantly so it's hard to hit with anything that has a lot of commitment, and it can both poison and paralyze you.
>>
>>127158291
>I never see people run anything other than Drome/Rajang and Jho.
Because they're faster/easier
>>
>>127158537
Yeah, but why I mean. Every time I've ran Rajang with people, at least one person carted a few seconds into him going to area 3 after leaving the cave.
>>
>>127157625
What conjecture? Be specific. I'm familiar with the source material, as I do remember it from around the time 4U came out.
>>
>>127158291
Garuga has the same skins as Rajang but gives comparatively shit rewards, comparable to shit like Daimyo Hermitaur.
At 140, Frenzied Garuga is a relentless engine of destruction because of how much bullshit there is in its moveset and how persistent on going after the same player for several attacks in a row it is.

>>127158786
Well, for people who know what they're doing at least. And the rest emulate the ones that know what they're doing.

All of your post was conjecture. There's nothing you can point to that backs it up, from the part claiming that what I posted was somehow false, to there being no modifications, to the guide being accurate at all. Which, as other people have been discussing, it's not. Dual quests ARE better at getting rates compared to single, which is one of the things the guide opens with saying is false.

You know, I questioned a lot of things about Rajang when I first fought him in Freedom Unite.

Deviljho at least makes some sense, other than the dragon breath. A monster being constantly hungry is kind of realistic, and captured monsters are easy pickings. Hamsters sometimes eat their own young (for example), so a dinosaur eating its own severed tail is believable.
Rajang's just all over the place

>implying Rajang and jho don't skip leg day and arm day respectively

I only say it because very few monsters have gotten cutscenes showing them fighting against other monsters. Brachydios was shown punching Agnaktor. Rajang's been shown being Rajang. Diablos has been shown having a fight with another Diablos. Yian Garuga has only actually been shown chasing Kut-Ku. Deviljho's been shown hitting things because it's hungry. Uragaan's been shown rolling around in a competition with another Uragaan.

Just take any of these monsters and give me a fighting cutscene that isn't just Brachy punching Agnaktor in the face and the poor fuck flopping over

Shaggy HBG is 220raw, 30% affinity

Normal up is x1.10, for a grand total of 334 true fucking raw, holy dicks.

The big reason is because of it's white sharpness, Seregios goes from Purple to green far too quickly. It's pretty even though.

I want to agree because it limits my choices of bow between Steve vs Relics.
On the other hand, power shot type with ridiculous raw and affinity.

I'm relatively new to the series playing through MHP3rd (started with a bit of MHFU).

Don't go in a straight line because higher difficulty Hermitaurs start trying to pop up in front of where you are so you'll run into them. Change it up every now and then by zigzagging. This goes for several monsters that like to dig, too
>>
>Have everything to craft a weapon

MHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>
>>127178496
For Daimyo Hermitaur (the red one), try running a decent distance away and then running circles around where it burrowed, that usually works for me. For Shogun Ceanataur (the blue one), you can actually see the dirty fly up where it's burrowing underground. You just need to learn the timing between when it burrows to you and when it attacks and panic dive it, which is where you put your weapon away, sprint and press dodge, so your character "hits the deck," giving you about two seconds of invincibility frames.

If you mean Shen Gaoren, which is a much bigger crab than those two, I can't help you because I'm not that far yet. This is Shen Gaoren

Yep. Welcome to monster hunter. You'll have to keep trying.

Don't worry your head about armor. Just make whatever looks nice to you, but the most cookie cutter "good" skill is Attack Up. You can go for that, if anything, but you should probably focus on defense more as a new player, so you can stay alive longer while you learn how to play the game.
>>
>>127181454
Are there pierce bows good against those? I only mentioned Ukanlos and Gogmazios since the Uranus Herald has fire, power shot and Pierce L5, and I'm still not sure it surpasses Kama against Ukanlos since it's so weak to being shot in the face.
>>
Just started playing... Seems like knife and shield is the easiest noob friendly weapon, but, it takes too long.

I switched to Switch Axe and liked it, but, defense was pretty much just sheathe and run.

Switched to Charge Blade and haven't look back since. It has defense (especially with auto-block talisman), burst damage and all that jazz. Seems like the most balanced weapon for someone new - thoughts?

>>127185139
Oh, follow up on this actually since I missed some of your post.
Switch axe is one of my favorite weapons, but the defense for it is pretty dependent on having evasion skills, like evade extender or E+1, or actually being skilled at evasion frames. Same deal to have fun with lance, actually.

Charge Blade is the only weapon I haven't mastered yet, the only weapon I can't enjoy at all. I just don't get it. It looks like shit and way too complciated and Monster Hunter was supposed to be down to earth at one point, its whole complexity seems forced and I bet at least 1/4 the attacks you have are more or less useless. I don't understand how guard points can be a game changer, except for very, very specific monsters and situations. Doesn't help that the in-game manuals are fucking terrible. It also says one guard point is the "morph into axe mode attack" but isn't the "morph into sword mode" attack (just pressing R when in axe mode) the actual guard point?

It's a needlessly complicated, shitty looking clusterfuck of a weapon that feels fanmade (just like almost everything since MH3U, be it mounting, those terrible zones with cliffs everywhere, anime monsters, MMORPG grinding). And I'm lucky it's actually a piece of shit even in its own fucking debut game with GS achieving much, much better times.

I geuss it will remain the only weapon I'm not good at. Trying around with this piece of shit just leads to me saying "nope, let me get my Dual Blade" after two minutes.

>>127182454
>Seems like knife and shield is the easiest noob friendly weapon, but, it takes too long.
It's neither the easiest most noob friendly weapon (it doesn't have any kind of charge gimmick apart from the useless backhopcharge attack, but actually using it correctly is not only more skillful than using most weapons correctly, but also very unlikely to come naturally to a new player since good SnS use relies on total aggression), nor takes too long (it has high dps and is the sixth-fastest weapon in terms of average TA times, just a bit behind DB). The game does present it as the best weapon for beginners, but it's really not and that's probably just based on not having to know a gimmick to use it. Gimmicks take like two minutes to learn, though, so that's not a big deal.

>I switched to Switch Axe and liked it, but, defense was pretty much just sheathe and run.
I'm no SA expert but from what I know it's an evasive weapon. Instead of sheathing and running or taking damage you use its excellent sidestep with evasion skills to slide out of harm's way or precisely iframe combos, with evade extender providing the added benefit of mobility in axe mode since you can move around by evading.

>Switched to Charge Blade and haven't look back since. It has defense (especially with auto-block talisman), burst damage and all that jazz. Seems like the most balanced weapon for someone new - thoughts?
CB is kind of like a bizarro-SnS. Its gimmick is the most complicated by far but yes, it's very easy for a new player to just pick up and use well, provided you know the basics. It's also the third or fourth strongest weapon in terms of TA times and easily the safest to use in the vast majority of cases, since it has passive blocking during most of its animations and easily creates openings. As others have said you should drop auto-block though and just learn to time guards/evades better.

Wiedlung a 500 pounds weapon around like it's nothing (back then they actually tried to make those weapon seem heavy, see GS), doing all kinds of fancy shit, literally morphing into a shield, into a sword, into an axe then into a shield again is a lot more unrealistic, whatever you want to call it if you think anime doesn't fit.

There definitely are some advtanges and improvements here and there but MH turns more and more into shit since Unite.

>>127190548
>And keep them grounded instead of hyper fucking active assholes.
But then maybe hammer wouldn't be completely useless anymore.

It's almost impossible to get a full combo in with hammer and even if you can get a full combo in, you still do less damage than a GS.

But you can knock a monster out? You can do this with GS too, and still cause more damage despite having wasted one skill on KO.

I honestly have no idea what I want out of MH anymore.

I played the game so damn much that I don't just want a rehash of what I have been playing for ten years.

But at the same time, the stuff they have added isn't super great.

The only thing I know is that I would really appreciate them bringing a new game to consoles, Sony, Nintendo, it doesn't matter. I'll fucking suck Bill Gates dick if it means I can play MH on a console again.

Will probably check out MHO, but I have reservations about it, since its chinese as fuck.

It's terrible.

Nothing wrong with rehashing when it's done right and with the needed love for detail.

Give us all the actually good monsters, dump those terrible first gen PS2 sit. Give us Lagiacrus, Zinogre, Rathalos, Nargacuga, Gore Magala, some more old monsters and many new monsters that are actually fun. With good graphics, in HD, on a proper system with a normal controller, good internet, chat and keyboard support, a 100 men lobby.

No new terrible weapons that are way too complicated and unrealistic, no Guild Quest shit, just all the weapon classes we already have. Fan favourite areas like Misty Peaks, Forest and Hills, Moga Forest and new ones that are not infested with gimmicks.

It's not hard at all.

Too bad you retards buy every single terrible gimmick-infested rehash on a 200p system instead of just waiting for 5.

What do you consider to be a casual? Nothing in that chart makes corresponding sense to my definition of casual. Why would a casual care one bit about story/premise?

It only spammed random mines like that in the higher level GQs.

So you unfortunately had an awful stroke of luck that one time. That's what randomization does. Shit happens. Next you're going to imply that being flawlessly combod to death by a monster which would have a roughly 1 in a million chance of happening also makes the game "unplayable".

You don't need an awful stroke of luck to get hit by random mines, especially in GQ quests. You need one to not get hit.

>Next you're going to imply that being flawlessly combod to death by a monster which would have a roughly 1 in a million chance of happening also makes the game "unplayable".
Getting "le combo'd" requires you to actually get hit in the first place by a regular monster attack which is almost always perfectly avoidable. Bad comparison.

I've hunted plenty of G-rank and high GQ Shagarus, not once have mines been a problem to me, even when using a greatsword. You're probably getting hit by the patterned explosions whenever Shagaru does one of his stomping attacks, or you actually have awful reflexes/timing and don't just roll away/through any unfortunate random explosion spawning underneath you.

>Getting "le combo'd" requires you to actually get hit in the first place by a regular monster attack which is almost always perfectly avoidable. Bad comparison.
If you're perfectly capable of NEVER getting hit by any monster, then you're perfectly capable of dealing with Shagaru mines, considering I do get hit once in a while yet have zero issues with mines.

I think you're just a case of having to get better.

Not this guy but even superpound takes longer than those orbs need to explode. And I'm not even sure if one roll is enough.

The superpound animation takes about a full second. Mines should take about 1.5 seconds to explode after appearing. Even considering the very millisecond you start your animation, a mine spawns beneath you, you still have enough time to avoid it.

So you are actually extremely lucky. No need to defend something that's literally random and almost onehits you. Again, there are wind-ups, you can't just dodge every single time.

Considering I can't even recall being hit by mines, no, I don't consider it luck. However, I don't often hunt Shagaru with a greatsword or hammer simply because he's usually too fast for slow weapons. That may also attribute to my lack of issues with Shagaru. Consider using faster weapons.

>You are actually working for Capcom, aren't you?
I wish.

>How about you help me level up my Shagaru GQ and we see how well you dodge them while being actually productive?

In Monster Hunter: DPS minmaxer, greatsword is an ideal weapon for Shagaru. But this is actually just Monster Hunter we're talking about. You're having issues with avoiding mines because "the GS charge recovery is too long". Use a weapon with faster recovery time. This is not rocket science.

GS is ideal anyway, you just suck at the game. There probably isn't a monster in the game GS is more ideal for, except for Tigrex or Rathalos, maybe.

>You're having issues with avoiding mines because "the GS charge recovery is too long". Use a weapon with faster recovery time. This is not rocket science.
It's annoying but a) mines are annoying anyway and you can get hit with all weapons and even when sharpening or whatever and b) GS is still easily the best weapon for him anyway, doesn't matter if you get hit more often. That's how overpowered GS is.

If you defend literal random shit, you are retarded. I love monsters not getting wrecked by GS but the random mines do not achieve this. And even if they did, it would just be the wrong way. Capcom should actually try to design good and balanced monsters.

>What is this even supposed to mean? I've probably played more 4U than you have, friend, and have likely solod everything you had to crawl to this thread begging for 3 players to carry you in order to clear.
Then I wonder why you told me you play MHX. You actually own MH4U. Then you can actually show me how easy it is to not get hit by random mines using a GS because it's clearly my fault and I need to get good.

Although it's pointless at this point because you already admitted you don't know shit about GS and don't even use it for Shagaru. So I have no I idea why you replied to me in the first place. Whatever. Attention, I guess.

Do people really clear caravan quests or am I supposed to only do key quests?
>>
>>127201309
When did that start? I'm just curious how much of a head start these chinese people had.
>>
>>127201421
You can clear only key quests if you want to rush for something specific, but clearing out every quest is nice and unlocks other stuff too. I've currently cleared out everything below G2 in MH4U, working on the remainder now.

What monsters can you fight in MHO? Can you use a 360 controller? Does it look actually good? Does it play like Monster Hunter? I heard hitzones don't matter or something.

>>
>>127201185
My level 11 and 18 cats went to level 16 and 21 respectively when I finished the 6 star Yukumo arena quest (Jho + Tigrex and Narga).

Can you actually solo anything in high rank?

What you should be doing is finishing every nyanta quest possible, which raises the levels of recruitable palicos significantly. Last I checked was probably when I only did all the village nyanta quests, where the palicos for sale were all around level 20.

>>127201421
I clear everything because I like playing the game. Do you like playing the game, Anon?

What >>127201659 said, basically. There's a bunch of extreme hunt-a-thons to unlock at the very end of the village quests.

The Elite 4 on the tower top, low rank

Deviljho + Tigrex and Narga
Rathalos + Garuga + Tigrex + Narga + Zinogre
Blangonga + Lagiacrus + Brachydios + Gore + Seregios
All of these are high rank and in the arena.

Unless you want to imply that these quests aren't actually fun, you madman.
>>
>>127201791
You don't have to clear everything when you like a game. Like most games MH has lots of boring parts/quests.
>>
>>127202117
I like all the parts though.
>>
>>127202191
Then you are legitimately stupid.
>>
>>127201678
>What monsters can you fight in MHO
They've got a decent mixture right now but they're still releasing monsters on a schedule similar to Frontier, so as to keep people interested.
>Can you use a 360 controller?
Yes, but it's recommended to use a controller while sitting in front of your keyboard because inventory management is kind of a pain in the ass right now with controller. I assume they'll fix this soon but for some stupid reason navigating inventory and storage with a controller just means moving a cursor across the screen with a joystick, but everything about controller while in an actual hunt is perfect.
>Does it look actually good?
It looks extremely good. It looks better in game than it does in trailers because you can force anisotropy which for some reason isn't in the graphics options. One of the best looking games I've ever played.
>Does it play like Monster Hunter?
Yes, it's a lot like a cross between old gen and new gen with some of their own comfort tweaks added to the game. I've only used Greatsword thus far but I think the moveset is perfect. Although I think there are complaints about other weapons which I understand but can't speak to.
> I heard hitzones don't matter or something.
I heard that in the past too but it's complete bullshit. There are hitzones just like in all the other Monster Hunter mainline games and it has all the same quirks like bounce off hard surfaces with bladed weapons affected by sharpness. Most of the stupid memes you heard about the game being bad were from being talking about the CBT phases they haven't even played.

It's great and I fully endorse playing it, at least from the perspective of someone who has only used greatsword thus far.

Why are G-rank hunters such edgy tryhards?
they suck, most of them do, they wear armors with gunner skills or skills that bennefit weapons they don't wear (like having fast charge and using dual blades), most of them hit the monster when someone is mounting, i saw one of them do a great sword charge while a guy was mounting. niggers always get in themselves killed, i'm talking about fucking G gold crown hunters.

Not only that, but they never fucking talk or listen to anything, i've tried to capture an azure rathalos for about 5 quests and they always end up killing them no matter how much i tell them to stop hitting the monster.

They don't try to hide how much they were carried to G-rank in the slightest

atleast say Hi back you edgy fucks

Nah, that's just the phase where you're still new to a specific MH game. When there actually are many, many things you need. In a few hundred hours you'll only need one specific thing at the moment and you want it as soon as possible, this is th e moment you want to strangle one of those braindead gooks at Capcom believing this shit was a good idea.

I'm HR11 and I started out at the beginning of OBT.

I'm beginning to see how they've planned MHO, too. They've spread out the difficulty of the game over about a month or two of playing, instead of giving it to you all at once.

At Royal Hunting Ground level bulldromes are back to doing 60% of your health in a single charge, and I've heard that in Extreme mode they'll bring back friendly fire.

There's something somewhat similar to that. In order to get "Unstable Area" missions sometimes you have to join and leave queues unless it appears for you by chance, and while that's tedious is far less tedious than what that person is describing. The way Unstable areas are handled is very questionable.
>>
>>127203354
When some monsters are bound to them and you have to waste 10 minutes quitting random quests so you get to fight said monster which you just want to fight because you enjoy it or because you need something or want to check something, it's not autistic to be annoyed. You must be some special kind of autist to not be annoyed and see how it's a huge, huge flaw, though.

Gunlance and bow are possibly the strongest weapons earlygame and the worst lategame. Sad but true.
>>
>>127204779
there were some really good gunlances in 3u, but overall and in the other games you're pretty much better off with a normal lance.

unofficial opinionated tier list for mh4u:
meme tier: insect glaive, chargeblade
top tier: greatsword, raw damage hbg, elemental lbg
hard to use right / ??? tier: bow
good tier: lance, hunting horn, status dual swords
solid choice tier: hammer, switchaxe (in solo)
underpowered (but fun? maybe?): longsword, gunlance
>>
For real though, someone make a mhx room.
>>
>>127204779
Switch Axe, it's just mashing the same button in sword mode and you can hop to the left or right almost always, with Evasion +1/+2 it's like cheating, you can't die. Very easy to learn. GS is just waiting when the monster isn't moving for two seconds than hitting the monster's weak spot. You don't have to charge it all up. Even easier to learn and very powerful. Sword and Shield. You can drink potions, use traps and bombs without having to sheathe your weapon. And you can just detonate bombs by hitting them and then rolling away without getting hit by them and having to recover. Not sure if you need Evasion +1 to do this, though. You have a shield and can dodge almost always.

Those are the best go to weapons, I'd say. Also try to focus on one of the monster's legs when it's a regular monster. It will trip every 40 seconds like this. Don't attack the biggest weak spot (usually face) when it isn't really safe.

Gun Lance isn't easy to learn and at the end there aren't really many monsters in the game it's that great for. It's a pain in the ass to cut a tail with bow and gun lance, too, which you want when you are still fresh and need all the rare materials.
>>
>>127205062
I forgot sns, it goes in solid choice tier. the weapon balance is pretty good except for the meme weapons, the underpowered weapons, and nobody knowing how to use bow. I've only seen a few people ever do well with bow, and I think they probably had statmodded gear. It's like half the time the bow is a rape machine and the rest of the time it fires foam arrows.

learn to use bowguns though, anon. you won't regret it. it's like an entirely separate game from blademaster.

>>127205278
Bowguns are the best for farming specific parts, I'd say if it's your first time playing and you're maining a bm weapon it would definitely pay to maintain a second set of gear for gunner with hbg or even lbg as a secondary because the ease with which you can break parts and cut tails (with slicing s) with a gun is absurd. Then when you're done breaking shit with normal and slicing you can switch to piercing and penetrate it until it dies because guns are fucking fantastic outside of late g rank where a monster breathing in the same area as you can oneshot you in gunner gear.

>>
>>127205370
>But I liked them so much...
Well there's no such thing as a weapon that isn't viable, you can solo almost anything with any weapon, except maybe for serious bullet sponges like event Gogmazios. So use whatever you want. Just be aware that you'll be doing inferior damage in g rank unless you use one specific bow (the seregios bow) that plays different from other bows and imo isn't as fun but has like 60% more damage output than the second best bow, and that if you use gunlance you'll also frustrate teammates if you shell and blast them away from the monster.

guns have very good dps, some great utility if you can bring along status shots, and are safer in groups.
They take a lot more practice than blademaster weapons to get good with, but if you put the time in it's definitely worth it. I recommend playing online with a bowgun at first to learn how to aim / when to reload, and then applying your skills to solo, learning when to shoot and how to dodge.
regarding elemental light bowgun use, use kiranico or ping's dex to find out what your enemy is weak to / which part to aim for. otherwise you won't do much.

I'd love to take you on some hunts to teach you, I'll have my 3ds back in about two weeks. Stick around, new friend.

>>127205419
this. Lategame you might as well be playing naked as gunner. If you get touched by a monster, you die. very few exceptions. On the bright side, G rank is all multiplayer, and in multiplayer you can let your blademaster friends take the aggro.

you can be autistically attentive and tryhardy while keeping it loose and letting the gameplay flow. A lot of autists I've met are the opposite of robots.

must have been a glitch or a lie, the only quests that drop gore mantles from quest rewards are "Guild 10: Advanced: Monster Hunter!" and "Event 9: The Candle of Darkness" a low chance at one mantle from each.
Candle of Darkness sub quest has a chance for a mantle, but that would be on a separate page.
Other than those, mantles are from carves / tail carves/ head breaks / shinies.

You know that one variation of the Sword-to-Axe morph attack where you morph without sticking the shield in front of you first?

MHX gave it a guard point for all styles. So you have two variations of the sword-to-axe morph with guard points.

Anyone willing to help me quickly minmax a set of armour for gathering quests in MH4U? I'd do it with ASS, except the helm I'd have to use doesn't show up in the calculator.

I'm trying to get:

>Gathering God
>Pro Transporter
>Heat Cancel
on to one set, with a 3 slot weapon and a +6 charmer talisman with no slots. Felyne Hairband X with the +13 Charmer is pretty much mandatory, but it won't show up in the calculator for me so it's throwing off all my calculations.

I'd ideally like to squeeze Speed Gatherer onto the set in future if I ever find a +7 Charmer charm with 3 slots, but that's just a dream for now.

>>127211898
Buff Elemental to be higher than the Power Phial buff, to compensate for the fact raw is still more valuable than elemental. The end result, giving it enough of a buff, would put the two about equal except on hitzones with really good weakness to the given element. Remove all awaken phials, especially fucking Dragon, completely, just make more Dragon element Elemental Phial axes.

I'll throw in my two cents too.

>What monsters can you fight in MHO?
http://gamer.qq.com/p/game/mhoboss/iProductID/39?ADTAG=innercop.games.39.discuss

>Can you use a 360 controller?
SnS can't use items while unsheathed unless you hit the key on the KB. Controls also feel slightly different from mainline, but they improved it a lot last patch. In this area the game feels like it's WIP.

>Does it look actually good?
Best of any MH game, bar none. It looks as good as any recent AAA title, or better.

>Does it play like Monster Hunter?
It is very, very casual. There are damage numbers, which I hate, but you can switch them off. There is no friendly fire but some anon above said it's in the later difficulty. There're no ledges or mounting.

>I heard hitzones don't matter or something.
This is untrue.
>>
>When you fire a cat in MHO it sends you a mail wishing you saying it enjoyed its time with you and wishes all the best

Ok, the firing animations were bad enough but this almost makes me wish I didn't do it.
>>
>>127201678
Hitzones definitely matter, and this is where the damage numbers really shine. They are definitely non-MH and you can turn them off, but the damage numbers show you how important hitzones are.

It plays a lot like MH, but a lot of it is a tutorial and all of the main story is casualized. You get increased difficulties and monsters add combos and attacks at higher levels and at higher hunt difficulty. Visually, it looks really good. MHO's exclusive monsters are all really fun to fight. Like Chramine is already my favourite bird, though if Blue Kut-Ku had Konchu Bowling in MHO it might have taken back its first place spot. It's definitely a MH game, it's also definitely more casual than most MH titles are. It's not something everyone would enjoy, but I do enjoy the game and it's something I'm quite happy to play alongside the main games.

Not him, but I just find that even though the graphics of MHO are really good, the ANIMATIONS seem pretty, well, stiff.

MH4U and MHX have very fluid movement animations. When you run, you look you're running. In MHO, the running seems like the characters have doll joints. The monsters also move around kind of stiffly.

I don't know why. Even though they all (I assume) use the same engine.
>>
>>127214038

>>127214062
Some animations are stiff, some are pretty good. Like you said, running (especially in the villages if you go down any steps) looks really rough. Certain monster animations are a bit off, too, but other animations look really good.

Dual Blade animations all generally look fine, as an example, because most animations are from the main games. The offensive dodge you get in Archdemon at level 15 looks really good, so does the Ultimate skill you unlock at the Estrellian intro. For monsters, I'll use Chramine as an example. It uses a lot of the same attacks and animations as the Kut-Ku and Gypceros families (for obvious reasons) and their animations are generally okay, but its exclusive attacks (eating dirt to sling slime, the explosive AoE and using wind to roll slime towards you) all have decent animations. Gendrome sprinting around the desert to kick up the sand also looks pretty good. Other monster animations (basically anything Bulldrome can do, Baelidae swinging around) really look off, though
>>

So I just noticed that Dinovaldo pretty consistently LOVES to follow-up his exploding ground fire puddle attack with a tail slam attack.

I'd have no problem with this attack except that the explosion from the fire puddle COMPLETELY OBSCURES MY VISION so I can't time my Bushido CB block properly.

Whoever designed this monster deserves to be hung from his balls.

>>
>>127215851
Every level of variant quest has a different spin on it, some more dickish than others, and there's a bit of a difficulty jump at level 5

The level 10 version is both ember dinovaldo and regular dinovaldo on ingle isle, in what I assume is a final-invitation-style thing of the regular one spawning either after a certain amount of time or immediately after ember dies

Pretty much all of them have at least one quest that locks you in with two monsters, four of them have respawning bulldrome on the tower and tigrex has it in the polar field

Smoke bombs got nerfed adequately, the worst part being that the vision impairment actually ends before the visual effect does, so you have to time smoke bombs now.

Pretty sure they also last about half as long as in 4U.
>>
>>127216753
If they don't both spot you on the way in probably, but I hear smoke bombs don't last as long as before

HC tetsu and lagombi apparently get gamuto in the polar field instead, while HC daimyo gets rajang on the tower

>>127215584
Duo monsters is by far the dumbest thing in the game, still. Barely has anything to do with luck and instead is a luckfest. The camera is way too close to the character, you don't see shit. Even when fighting only one monster the camera can be a pain in the ass, when the environments are important or when the monster is extremely big so it's blocking the camera.

Not to mention monsters clip through each other or upredictably push each other around.

And yes, it's just one more thing Capcom is trying to force GS on us because with its hit and run tactics it's clearly the most suited weapon for duo monsters. And they even nerfed the smoke bombs? It's like there is a God Eater spy trying to ruin Monster Hunter from inside.
>>
>>127216352
Always hated it, doesn't change it looks incredibly silly and has autismo music. It's still doable and sometimes even somewhat fun with fast weapons.

How did it all go so wrong?
>>
>>127218651
No one should have told you that. You can trip pretty much every Elder Dragon, but the smaller ones (Kirin, Kushala, Teostra, Lunastra, Chameleos and Shagaru) are all fairly easy to trip they just take a bit more effort than most monsters do. Other than an angry Deviljho, since you trip him and he just staggers straight into trying to bite you
>>
>>127218651
His front legs, not wingarms. Besides making him trip, they're also a very weak hitzone so it's a great part to target.

And "people" was actually just one Anon who thought when an elder dragon doesn't trip by attacking their hind legs, it never trips.
>>
>>127218436
They could /easily/ change this and even make those fights fun and tactical. Just add a dynamic aggro system, for example, if only one guy attacks the monster it should attack the people in the room it already saw attack less frequently and at some point completely stop attacking them, maybe after a minute or two, until the tank left the room or someone else hit it. It wouldn't break anything, it would make the game more fun and tactical, it would be a solution. There, needed 5 seconds to come up with this. Capcom can't come up with shit like this after 10 years. Why do video game developers get paid? They're a bunch of degenerates.
>>
>>127218727
Aren't arts actually fun? I iimagine the super attack for the long sword is useful and fun, or those counter attacks.

And what you mean with zero variety? It has all the weapon classes

And why do you not like MH4U locations?

>And why do you not like MH4U locations?
Cliffs instead of even grounds. The most idiotic addition to this day.
>>
>>127218945
They're weaker than your regular attacks and have obnoxiously long animations that make them impossible to actually use. So no, not really.

And what I meant is that there's only one weapon of each class that's worth making. You make like two armor sets and 14 weapons and you've basically finished the game.
>>
>>127219010
You can, it just that some "trip" in other ways.

Teo/Kush and the like can be head staggered in which they fall over after the rear back regardless of KO, thus being their version of a trip, however a leg stagger will just make them rear back then return to their neutral stance.

Was really damn helpful back in the early days when you could deactivate their auras with the head stagger.

Used to be that you at least wanted to make the best weapon of each element, as well as the best raw/blast option for most weapons. Not anymore. Now Tigrex and variant Dino are the only thing you're allowed to use.

Not all hunter arts are bad and several are even pretty good, it's just really hard to beat the utility of a fast charging, free perfect evade that either auto sharpens or instantly sheathes your weapon
>>
>>127219010
Shagaru - Stagger front legs (not wingarms)
Chameleos - Stagger hind legs (might require two staggers per trip, not sure)
Teostra and Kushala - Stagger head
Mohrans (final showdown only) - Stagge front legs or sound the drum while he's in the process of body slamming the dragonship
Dalamadur - Break either claw (requires 3 staggers), can be done twice
Gogmazios - Stagger front legs (not wingarms)
Kirin - Stagger body twice
Lao-Shan - Stagger hind legs
Osutogaroa - Remove all bones from both tentacles
Caedeus - Stagger small fins

Not sure about Alatreon, Amatsu and Yama, haven't fought them in forever. I think Fatalis and Miralis are the only monsters you can't trip, save for a fairly long recovery time when staggering their hind legs.

Variant monsters are fought in their own quests that go from lvl 1 to 10, with increasing difficulty and slightly different requirements

i.e. lvl 1 ember dino is just a regular hunt, lvl 2 is a capture quest, lvl 6 is a hunt-a-thon, lvl 7 is on the tower with a respawning bulldrome, etc.

Each level of variant quest rewards an appropriate proof item(i.e. ember proof 1, ember proof 2, etc.), and these are used to make and upgrade variant equipment

So, nothing changed about spamming lvl 2 charges on monster heads with crit draw every 10 seconds? And it's still super simple?

Still OP then.

I'm talking MHO specials, not talents or regular moves. They all have ridiculous windup times and aren't practical save using them on tripped monsters and situations like that.

>worst monster roster in the history of monster rosters
It's slightly larger than the initial roster Frontier had, and it's in open beta. They have plenty of monsters they can bring over in content updates. The exclusive monsters are fun, Chramine is the most fun bird this series has excluding 4U's Blue Yian Kut-Ku's G-rank bowling skills, but he's pretty close because he plays soccer with slime bombs. Estrellian is fun as fuck. Baelidae is fun as fuck. The issues in the roster come in monsters like Cephadrome and Bulldrome.

The run is exclusive to Dual Blades, exclusive to Demon Mode and matters very little. You could skip it entirely and not feel like you're missing out. You spend more time in Archdemon than Demon Mode so you rarely notice it. If you complained about the evasive double slash duals get at level 15 you might be complaining about a relevant skill but there is absolutely nothing wrong with that dodge.

>Can't read anything
You hardly need to, the only thing you really miss out on due to the lack of translation right now is the story (which does not appear to take itself very seriously when you have Chramine throwing a boulder to floor a glider, with the NPC faceplanting into a cactus) and very few quest requirements which you can solve just by using google translate on a single word whenever you're confused.

Are you commenting on the game without ever playing it, by chance?

"Dumbposting" implies that any of the complaints directing at MHX are somehow wrong.
Prove how they are.

How does one download and play MHO?

Which Switch Axe in MHX is the best for pure raw damage?

I know that in MH4U, it was either the Ceadeus or the Seregios axes.
>>
>>127131584
You are fucking faggot. PixelEater started SOUL posting and irc channel wars. Go back to reddit honestly.
>>
>>127220563
Oh. Right.

>zero weapon variety
>zero armor variety
There's more than enough variety and viability in both. "Viable" does not mean "the highest amount of raw damage possible even if the 2nd best has 10 less raw". It's a matter of visual taste. As for armor sets, every armor set has their own armor skills which are all perfectly usable in one scenario or another. This is all preference. The point of the game is having fun, not being an autistic minmaxer who treats the game as a competition.
>zero challenge
These words are only ever uttered by people who never hunt solo, except to stomp through low rank village with g-rank equipment.
>hunter arts are universally bad, to the point where the only one worth using is an instant sharpen
This is just objectively incorrect. Every hunter art has great side effects, choice depending entirely on personal preferences and sometimes the situation in which you want to use it.
>monster roster sucks
The roster has the most variety in any mainline game thusfar.
>areas suck
Nothing wrong with any areas. This is uttered by Tribabbies who are unable to fight on elevated areas. Simply a case of the bad.
>balance is even worse than before
It's much better than ever before, since what imbalance the game has is now limited to hunting styles instead of the weapons themselves, and has a much better chance of being properly balanced out in the next installment, and even then I don't really see many imbalances except for for the unnecessary +3 evasion on Bushido and the strength of aerial in group hunts.

SOUL posting and irc channel wars were the best things to ever happen to this general.

People like you are the reason why this general is the worst thread on 4chan. Tripfagging and know-it-all attitude is a very bad combination.

>>127221159
"Personal preference" doesn't exist. There are only correct and incorrect choices.
>>
>>127221159
>There's more than enough variety and viability in both.
Not really when one specific combination just completely outclasses any other to a ridiculous extent. Not having an ultra-critical setup with a natural white weapon makes you effectively dead weight.

>zero weapon variety
unless you are a speedrunner, there is plenty. you can still get fine times with non tigrex/dino weapons.
>zero armor variety
see above, there are many fun and viable sets to be had.
>zero challenge
ferocious/outraged monsters hit harder than apex, level 10 variants are comparable to 140's. many of the variant quests before level 10 are fucking CRAZY to solo.
>hunter arts are universally bad, to the point where the only one worth using is an instant sharpen
all of the "generic" arts besides the sharpen art are generally bad. the weapon specific ones are usually good and most are really powerful at level 3.
>monster roster sucks
opinions. i like the roster because gravios isn't in it. the new monsters are fun to fight barring gamuto.
>areas suck
highrank areas suck because they're from 4u. good thing most of the variant quests and all of lowrank takes place on the old remastered maps.
>balance is even worse than before
balance is the same as it has always been. GS shits on everything by a huge margin.

X is at the very least no worse than 4u.

>>127221994
>ruinous Tigrex
You use the regular Tigrex GS.
And "meh" white is more than enough with battle ready evade to constantly extend it. By the time you drop to blue the monster should be mostly dead.
>>
Can you minmax faggots go minmax in a game about numbers instead of MH? WoW is really good one for that.
>>
>>127221910
variant garuga set with dual blades, purple rathian set with a status SnS, just off the top of my head

then you have the silver sol fuckery and variant rathalos/dinovaldo sets.

that's already a ton more than 4u which was star knight: the game
>>
>>127221910
Like Crimson Arzuros armor against a trip happy monster while using any close up weapon to make sure you actually receive plenty of trip damage.
Or regular Dinovaldo (S) armor so you don't have to care one bit about your sharpness and can just hunt in full relaxation.
Or any set that incorporates Tremor Resistance and Mud Negate to dumpster on a Gamuto or two.
Or everything about Nyantas.

>>127222214
Or any game that's about PvP or competition for that matter.
>>
>>127222390
>variant sets
Yeah I sure love having two offensive skills and no way to add more.
>4u which was star knight: the game

>actually counting gimmicky shit
Why would I use any of those when they're strictly inferior to Silver Sol?
>>
>>127221249
Actually, people like you who mindlessly shitpost because they're unable to contain their autistic triggers are a lot less desirable.

>>127221271
The only incorrect choice at matter is the choice you made in playing Monster Hunter in the first place.

>>127221356
Good thing I don't hunt with autists who throw tantrums the moment their clear time is in danger of being 10 seconds faster than possible.

>>127222547
Because this is a game.
Games are a past-time.
Past-times should be fun.
It should not be a stressfest or a serious competition.
Losen up.
>>
>>127222452
you have tons of clownsuits in 4u aside from star knight, im fully aware. doesnt change the fact that the best set for the highest damage weapons was star knight, barring GS.
>>
>>127222631
Minmaxing is fun. Knowingly gimping yourself isn't.

For you.
I find it irritating.

Also a skilled player can easily best an average one even if they have sub-optimal equipment.
Playing to your own tastes can be better for your survival and speed sometimes that just going for numbers.
>>
>>127222708
You'd have to either be a mathematician or genuinely autistic to get a dopamine rush off maximizing numbers, and I very much doubt you are the former, my friend.

Agree with everything else but this is bullshit. THose areas are plain annoying, breaking up your combos all the time, slowing you down, making you jump when you don't even want to and so on. Especially online when you can't control where the monster is. It's horrible. 4U areas need to die quickly.

>unironically using the term minmaxing in a game where you cannot allocate stats
>>
>>127223029
In this case it would be allocating skill points with the slots/armor pieces that you can use combined with weapon statistics.

Same difference.
>>
>>127222839
again you provide no actual proof. you're pulling numbers out of your ass.

these weapons are comparable in damage to other weapons, the difference is that they have natural white.
>>
>>127222959
That's the point of them. They're not meant to allow you to combo or have regular flat surface combat. That's the whole gimmick of it. Whether it's likable or not is another story, I personally dislike it because I think mounting should be gutted into the ground even more.

>making you jump when you don't even want to
This is the only thing I agree with and quite frankly gives me cancer, but I've learned to avoid those accidents as much as possible. At this point they're just a hazard like fire geysers though.

>>127223029
That's the saddest past. They still try to despite being unable to do the literally version of minmaxing.

>>127223125
