How do I git gud /v/?

Just hit the monster until it dies and don't get hit in the process, easy stuff.

What weapon are you using?
Do you know how armor skills work?
Do you eat before a hunt?
Do you know what elements to use against the monsters?
Do you know what items are effective on them?

Patience and the willingness to correct your own behavior rather than blame the game.

Don't stop.

Truly the darkest timeline
I love 4U but hate 3DS for its fragile build quality

Be intelligent

Stop using greatswords

(You)'re trying, its not working.

Experimentation and paying attention, mostly, which comes with experience. You can get a vague idea of what elements to use by looking at the resistances on a monster's armor sets.

Dodge
Don't get greedy
Hit the monster
DOOOOOOOOOOODGE

Currently fighting a great jaggi with sword and shield (yeah, go ahead and roast me for being a noob). Forgot to eat before this hunt. And i don't really know the other stuff yet

Use Charge Blade if you really need a crutch.

>Good mobility
>Great defense
>Great versatility
>Best K.O. potential in the game
>Great synergy with most skills

You can't really go wrong with it. Just don't get too comfortable with it if you plan on playing Generations later.

Monster Hunter!

I really wanted to like the Charge Blade because I used Swaxe a lot in 3U, but it just never felt good for me.
Ended up picking up Hunting Horn and that's been a lot of fun, though.

Keep playing and you'll learn in time, these games are slow burns.

Armor skills don't do anything until they hit +10 or -10. That +9 Attack and -6 Health armor set won't do a single thing, positive or negative. Some have additional effects at +15 or +20. Armor skills are typically more important than the actual armor value, especially later on.

With the basic equipment, you shouls be able to kill it within 7 minutes provided you don't cart once, hit it often, and sharpen your sword when it hits Red sharpness.

If you're not feeling the SnS you can go back to your hut and experiment with other weapons by changing from there.
You can also upgrade your weapons by gatheribg specific materials.

Be sure to learn when to hit and when to dodge, with SnS you can probably get by with shielding sometimes to maintain your position.

Have you hunted everything? No.
Shut up and hunt.
