Depending on the game, it's probably my second or third go-to after Cunting Horn and/or Lance.

I literally have no idea how I'm going to solo Goldbeard Ceadeus when even HR Port Jho is giving me a huge hassle with his retardedly high HP. What's the fucking secret?
>Unlike the standard Ceadeus, Goldbeard Ceadeus cannot be hunted over the span of multiple hunts, and must be slain in one quest.

I'd be worried for Chinese players except they'd just lower the damage to pathetic levels like they do all the other monsters.

>>376484201
>is it possible to solo hunt as a gunner?
Yes, it'll just take awhile (Unless it's a Rathalos variant, in which you will enjoy slightly faster solo times than most other weapon times)

>what's the best bow, lightgun and heavygun?
When you play gunner, you have a best weapon for each situation. You don't get to go hammer/greatsword route and just take the thing with the biggest numbers.

When you do get to the point of 'You can take this gun to everything' levels of equipment, you'll be far enough along and familiar enough with the game to make that call yourself. Until then, get a gunner weapon of your preferred type that specializes in each element and (if you're going with bowguns) shot type. Keep an eye out for bow shot types because shit like Pierce is decent enough to keep around just because there are some super long monsters that get ripped to shreds by a crit. distance pierce arrow.

How come I can't find any other games that are as addicting as monster hunter? I can't even tell if it's addicting or just fun at times, even though I have hundreds upon hundreds of hours sunk into the games.

The only other games I've invested this much time into are, I don't know, pretty much everything by Blizzard, Guitar Hero/Rock Band, League of Legends, Smash Bros and Pokemon. I can't think of anything besides that I've given so much of my time to.

My tastes are casual as fuck when it comes to what I want to sink lots of time into. I am sorry.

>>376484632

Simple gameplay loop.
Go out, hit big thing, come back, do it again.
Then you stack that on top of having goals in the game be more your own choices rather than the game putting up a quest objective for you to complete.

So when you get that final part and finish a weapon, or finally beat a monster that walled the crap out of you, or maybe even got a new best time if you're a TA type. It's a great feeling since it's something you decided on doing and accomplished, instead of just a check box and some pointless numbers added to an XP bar.

You decided what you wanted to do, and you got as good as you needed to be to accomplish it. Not your character.
And that's a powerful feeling.

Also I don't think I'm going to get the latest iteration when it comes out. I didn't really enjoy generations, and g rank grind is always more slog than fun for me. The combo of the two doesn't appeal. Am I the only one?

When I play one of these, I usually start totally over for the "expansion" and use a new weapon and stuff. But I feel nothing for this release, and I would absolutely dread trudging through LR again. I'll wait for a new release.

I've barely used IG in Gen at all, honestly. Same with Charge Blade.

>>376484592
there isn't a gun that shoots all elements right? I think mostly people go for one that has pierce, one that explodes and other that cuts. The only element I see them use is poison and rarely healing but never use any element specifically

To me personally, it's the animation graphics.
In a game where you can't see the monster health with total clarity, there are various quirks to help you track damage. The quirks that can simulate haptic feedback are usually my favorite.

You mean stagger? Which only happens when monster HP reached a certain stagger value?

>>376487009
They rage and get exhausted. Some monsters have special rages that go past a normal rage. Some monsters you don't realize their in rage mode until they hit you and it does 2x damage. They run away when they're weak.

I feel like I use way too much at this point, so it's really just a matter of what the rest of my party uses. I constantly switch between HH, GS, Hammer, LS, SA, IG, Lance, LBG, and Bow.

>>376487221
See >>376487235

I mean why say like it's like a redeeming feature of the small screen MH games when these have been around since the beginning?

>>376487290
You'll never get any good at a weapon if you use that many of them. Just focus on the 1-2 top tier weapons, and then switch to a new weapon with each game (balance changes will shake up the tiers anyway)

I got into the series with 3U and took a liking to Switch Axe very quickly and pretty much never bothered with anything else for future games.

A bit unrelated, but if there was one game in the series you'd play forever, which one would it be for you?

I would say Freedom Unite, but the hitboxes aren't exactly what I'd call fun

>>376487381
That's just my repertoire at this point in the series.

But besides that, trying different weapons is just good to do. Some weapons work better on some monsters, or complement other weapons in different ways. They really aren't that hard to understand, especially after so many games. You're really limiting yourself if you're just going top tier.

>>376487172
Wait what did they do LBG in XX? I loved all the changes to LBG except for slicing shot being internal ammo.

>>376481671
>who babymode here

>>376488104
I'd imagine the usual G rank bullshit where elemental and static damage dropoff significantly compared to raw, and LBG gets the short end of the stick because their best shots are both of those, they're even more ammo-constrained, and they are one hit killed even harder.

>>376488104
Gutted elemental shot damage and nerfed full house to only let you change ammo after your last shot has disappeared off screen. So element LBG does no damage now and explosive LBG is clunky as hell.
I don't know why but anything that's not pure raw got the shaft in XX in general. Element is probably the worst it's ever been in the series.

Anyone know games that Let me smack shit with a giant greatsword (besides musou) ?

>>376488307
What a fucking shame. Adept LBG with Full House was so fucking cool, it felt like the action equivalent of getting an infinite Overdrive build to work in Xenoblade X.

because it is an afterthought. In the post E3 interview they flat out said they wanted to be more story focused and tell a father-son tale or something along those lines

people who main weapon types are autistic as fuck no fun retards.

these games generally have 100 hours of replayability and if you're going to spend any significant portion of that using only one of the fifteen weapon types and all 4 fucking attacks it might have, well then you're just a mongoloid.

MH3U is my first MH game and I had a ton of fun with it.
I have 60 clocked in it and I'm at the very beginning of High Rank missions. Problem is, I stopped actively playing it back in January because I started playing other games and got more invested in them than in MH.
I really like the game and was considering going back to do HR missions, but I think I might be a bit rusty by now.

Can I just go in and tackle on HR missions or should I replay the LR missions to get good at it again?

I think Gunner weapons in general would be more popular if Capcom made more of an effort to remove a good chunk of obfuscation behind them. The mechanics behind bowguns are not overly complex, but instead are poorly explained. Bows in particular are mechanically flawed.

If you're relying on the vault as your main way of doing damage then you're using aerial IG wrong

Prowler is the only weapon for REAL hunters.

There's not a lot that's more satisfying than getting that perfect 3rd charge off on a weakpoint

Speaking as someone who just started getting into Bow, it's really tricky to get used to. I remember trying it out in the earlier games and barely being able to beat even shitty monsters reliably because of how aiming works, especially because it's more finnacky than Bowgun aiming, plus aiming with the 3DS' hardware isn't great in the first place. Coupled with the whole Blademaster vs Gunner armor incompatibility issue, I can imagine it'd put people off from the Blademaster comfort zone. Now that there's a soft lockon in the new games it's not so bad, but even then uneven terrain can completely fuck up your shots if you don't take the time to aim manually.

That said, it's really satisfying once you're used to it. Having Adept evades in Gen helps a lot too. I'd like to thank people in earlier threads for suggesting I try it, I've got a level 2 Teostra Bow now and a decent skillset and I'm having a blast with it.

>what's the best bow
In MHGen everyone seems to recommend the Teostra Bow (Bow of Hope and Valor/Light and Courage). It's pretty damn good, the extra blast damage does seem to give it a real kick even at its lower levels.
