it still ends up broken
even if i extract the game and rebuild things without the update i get "an error has occurred"

>>123757898
g-good luck. Ask /hbg/?

>>123757926
nobody replied to me there
i feel as though something has screwed up during the decryption step
the .3ds i create is consistently 30-40 mb smaller than the .3ds i started off with

There needs to be more armors that show midriff.

>>123758329
i'd rather not have to grab a new .3ds or .cia every single time the guy releases a new update, which he seems to do quite frequently so far
having all the files at hand and being able to quickly rebuild and play it would be far more convenient

This guy

Trust me, downloading it is by far the easiest way.

>>123758409
Swapping the .cia only takes like 30 minutes. You do take breaks, right?

>>123758471
Oh, um, MH4U. Since that seems to be a thing now.
I'm sorry I'm not one of the cool kids

I don't see how the absence of a G-Rank is such a big deal.
It has always been an add-on to extend the life of a generation.

>>123758559
If you aren't a digusting weeaboo / filthy pirate the last games that came out in the west all shipped with G rank, people just got used to it.

I'm right there with you, man. In the feels corner, that is.

>>123758559
It hurts the overall difficulty of the game. Nobody wants to fight a Zinogre that's easier than before.

>>123758478
i dunno about you but after i had extracted sm4sh's update files rebuilding and reinstalling the whole shebang with custom content was a matter of a few minutes
compared to this where i need to redownload a gigatit and then some every time it is a fair bit faster

Never played MH before. Which is the best one I can play on PC?

>>123758539
>>123758658
0 sympathy, I told you people every single day to never update your 3DS and buy one that's on 4.5.

>>123758729
My internet's pretty fast I guess, 2GB is an 80 second download.

>>123758689
lack of G rank doesnt automatically mean its easier

see 3rd and 3u for example

>>123758749
Quite a few contenders for that one, all MH are 10/10. If you want the chronological order, start with MHFU on a PSP emulator. If you're a filthy casual, try Tri on a Wii emulator.

>>123758817
3U was much harder than P3rd which is seen as the easiest in the series though?

>>123758636
Tri didn't have G-Rank.

>>123758689
We've got Special Permit monsters now.
That's a lot better than just putting all the monsters on steroids, if you ask me.

>>123758749
Frontier.

>>123758817
3U had G-Rank.

>>123758749
MHFU and P3rd.

>>123758848
>game with +50 free base defense harder than anything

good one

>>123758918
learn to read

What skills does Garuga armor in MHX have?

>>123758849
3U and 4U had G Rank, Tri was literally more than half a decade ago.

>>123758749
The PSP titles in an emulator, p3rd HD is probably most lenient starting point (you don't want the actual PSP version, it doesn't work without fucking around).

There's also Frontier, but you'll need to either suffer Chinese or Japanese. The Japanese version also needs a VPN etc.

>>123758970
I feel insulted that only shitposters ever reply to me.

>>123758918
He seems to be under the delusion that P3rd wasn't casual, thus he never played 3U and probably nothing else either.

>>123758761
Dad please
MH4U is still fun, I don't need to scramble to get all the newest shiny shit to prove I'm still "with it"

Does your generation know nothing of delayed gratification?

I just got MH4U on the DS, my first MH game since Tri, so I figure I should ask a couple of questions first before I get stuck in.

#1: I vaguely remember hearing something about charms being determined by the second you start your new game? What was that all about? I'd like to not have a repeat of Tri, where I spent 100+ hours mining charms online in that one powder stones mission and STILL never found the 7+ Evasion with 2 slots charm I was after. Anything I can do to increase my odds and reduce the time I'd have to spend mining for charms is a good thing.

#2: Tri for me was pretty much divided into "trying to find that one fucking charm that never drops" and "everything else". Is there anything else that's charm tier I should be aware of from early on in MH4U, especially if I can do stuff early on to help myself in getting whatever it is? Knowing my overall goal and getting the RNG bullshit out of the way early on would be great, I've no problems with getting 2% rare drops from hard monsters or anything like that usually (Hardest was the 8% chance of Stout Horns.) but 0% charm drops were an absolute cunt.

#3: In Tri I played a fairly mediocre hammer user who had some trouble stunning the target and got shouted at semi-often, I'm currently considering rolling GS this time around but the Bow looks tasty too. How are Great Swords in MH4U? How about bows? Are switch axes and longswords still only used by people who want to piss off others in multiplayer? What's good / bad and anything cool amongst the new weapons.

Thanks for any help.

>>123758559
>>123758689
>>123758849
>>123759012
The hardest game in the franchise (Dos) had no G-rank. In fact, its Low Rank was harder than the G-rank in most games.

Tri's Low Rank was also harder than High Rank in P3rd/3U.

>>123757958
No, I'm in multiply items and I can only select herb. Can't specify anything else and there's no quests with the text box on them.

All I can do is select 1, select a cat, select an item, then rounds up to 10 and gratuity.

Is there anywhere I can find out what quest I need to do?

>>123759104
1. Charm table is rolled whenever you boot up the game. You can "savescum" like this by doing charm melding and save/quit until you get a good batch.

2. The only other thing I can think of that compares is relic weapons, and youdon't hvae to worry about those til endgame.

3. GS is good. Bow is okay. SA and LS are UU tier. CB and IG are great to the point that both bad and good players use them.

>>123759104
>1
Not the case anymore. Your charm table changes every time you load your save now.
>2
You DON'T build your set around a single god charm you have 0.0001% chance to get.
You can get top tier custom sets with relatively modest charms.
>3
GS is op, as always.
Bows are a bit underpowered, as always. Kama is pretty strong raw dps bow though.
SA and LS are just fine in MP, but in 4U their dps leaves hopes for the best, outside of relic weapons.
IG is broken. CB is pretty strong, if you know how to use it. Didn't make to the pedestal though.

CB gives more survival options though, thanks to having a block. Both it and the IG locks you in a place a long-ass time when using damaging attacks, though.

>>123759662
Wait, where did you get this?

>>123759649
IG is really mobile with a white buff. It might look weak, just because it's a fast weapon, but the motion values on its attacks are massive.
You don't need to do the full infinite combo every time, a single idle twirl does a lot of damage already.

>>123759965
reposted for the thousandth time/10

>>123759352
>>123759354
Any way to improve my odds of getting a good charm though? If I can get a godly charm, I'm at least going to try for it.

I think I'll go with the GS after all, checked out the IS a little bit in a tutorial video and it looks cool but it's not really my style. Also not terribly interested in being too weak so the bow's out.

How do you get the horn and bombs and shit the nyanter had in the demo?

>>123760119
equip them to your felyne's skill set
you might need to unlock them first, and not every felyne has every skill

>>123758970
The thing is you didn't even need armor in P3rd. It was literally a fashion choice.

Feels good to visit the Deserted Island again after such a long time.
Although I'm glad that underwater combat is gone, I do kind of miss the underwater areas of that map.

>>123760080
The only way to improve the chance of getting a god charm is just getting more charms in total.
You can mine with charm god that one rathalos quest and bail via subquest.
But graven charms you can only get on high level guild quests as rewards. So charm god won't help there.

Don't stress yourself over charms too much.

Moving on to G Rank!

Just beat Angry Bird and just realized I practically never use Sleep weapons. It just seems like such a hassle to bring bombs and bomb monsters, I mean, I want to fight them not cheese them.

>>123759094
no. they're baby boomerd. for fucks sake. These fuck heads grew up in the post war boomtimes. with governments handing the fuckers so much 'free' shit to stay in power. always short changing thefuture. so when your pparents and or grandparents complain about the cost of living or the shitty pension funds or super. just remind them that they are at fault. their complacency greed and idiotic belief that they 'deserved' all their free shit is why we are fucked. you and me. on average have a national debt burden of about a million dollars each. in some countries of the west far more.

>>123761206
X doesn't even have G Rank you goof.

>>123761498
National debt is beneficial, unless you lack industry and export like Greece. Why do you think the west hasn't seen any major wars lately?

in general do you want to deco Horn maestro or aim to armor that has it naturally?

>>123761773
Any five slot skill is better off being gemmed in.

>>123761773

Guard +2 is only needed on something like 30% of monsters. It would be best to have two sets, with and without it.

>>123762424
Oh you goddamn moron, 20 points of purple isn't much. Making it 40 is the nicest damage increase you can get.

I'm confused. There's a village 2* quest on the first page that wants you to collect 3x of a Green Seed. The icon is just a Box, not the seed image.

I thought it had to be Round Acorns, but I can't find any Felynes in the quest, only Melynx. Would someone with the English patch check the quest objective for me? I like to 100% village (as far as possible) before hitting online too hard, and this is hitting me right in the autism.

Yo can someone who has MHX tell me if they continued 4U's attempt at having a vague semblance of a storyline in MH? I don't actually care either way, just curious if there's even a whiff actual plot or if we're back to the usual JUST KILL MONSTERS WHO CARES standard.

>>123769439

No. Its just a giant nostalgia 10th anniversary wankfest.

5 will probably have story again still.

My sides. I still don't get the "Gravios is hard" meme. I'd kill him before running out of primary ammo.

Which monster has the better weapons of its respective element?

Dinovaldo vs Rathalos?
Gamuto vs Blangonga?
Raizex vs Lagiacrus?
Tamamitsune vs... does it even have any real competition there?

He's also pretty fun to fight with aerial DB. 8 mounts during the hunt before he finally died.

Killed him with an underpowered SA, aerial style, in 17. Is DB just really shit in MHX?

Probably needs dash juice to do well. That or I'm just shit.

>>123767723
okay uh let's see

the cute girl selling cats to you allows you to choose what kind of cats she's scouting for
you can either specify the cat's preferred appearance or its forte and target preference
each cat has hard locked support actions which cannot be unequipped (displayed with a red E) and can also learn any of the other support actions displayed on the hiring screen
the numbers indicate how many charges the support action requires, and oftentimes you unlock support options by performing tasks such as levelling the cat to a certain level, hunting a specific mon, etc.

the palico dojo allows you to do quite a few things
when walking up to the sign and interacting with it, two options appear
the first one allows you to let a cat teach support actions or palico skills to other cats (i think)
the second one should allow you to either perform power training with cats (which incredibly quickly drains their enthusiasm), send them in for some relaxing, or have them adopt a new target preference (e.g. balanced -> smaller first for example)
for both options, the very last action allows you to tell your cats to end their action early and become available again

at the palico board you can assign support actions and palico skills to your cats
while the palico skills utilise a point system similar to that in p3rd, you no longer have to wait for them to learn the skills - they can use them right away as long as you have enough spare points
as for the support actions, you can assign as many as there are unlocked slots - just keep in mind that a few actions require charges before they can be used
having quickly tried it, the second to last option on the board apparently allows you to let cats perform ordinary training and get some gains while you are not taking them with you

that's about as much as i know
things might be wrong

When/how to throw sonics at Diablos to make them come out?

>>123770859

FU was my first MH.

Every game since has improved upon it. FU is shit now m8. Accept it.

>>123770976
Throw it when the tailcase is going into the sand. Doesn't work while enraged.

>>123770340
3 open slots

>>123770890
to follow up to this

as there are no "main" and "sub" palicoes anymore, fortes aren't vital to unlocking basic abilities for your main cats
instead fortes seem to specify the pool of abilities a cat can come with
a support cat usually gains actions which focus around weakening or trapping monsters, whereas fighting cats learn offensive actions and buffs
i'm not quite sure if you can freely teach any actions to other cats via the dojo, but if i had to make a guess there might be some kind of limitation based on whether or not an action is forte-specific
e.g. you might only be able to teach "generic" actions to other cats

>>123771068
You think the hunting in X is better than in FU?

>>123771068
Who said anything about that? All I'm saying is MHX is far from nostalgia. Far from even being an "anniversary" or whatever marketing buzzwords they use. It's just another new MH, we have that every year.

>>123771136
Crowns, G, high rank or low rank?

>>123771278

>far from nostalgia
>one of the main points of the game is revisiting Gen 1/2/P3rd villages

>>123771349
crowns.

wow

defense nyanters are literally immortal.

they get a 1 point instant heal that does like 10 to 20% with no diminishing returns

all you have to do is hit the monster and you can heal forever

Has anyone managed to make hbg siege mode work effectively solo yet?

It is my understanding that there's a way to turn as you set up, even if you roll away, so that you end up facing the monster right away.

Is Bushido the only style that can roll right out of siege without having to half-unsiege first, or is that a general improvement to Guild?

How about some frontier for a change?

>>123780383
have you actually played the game?

hunter arts are trash we a few exceptions.

things like the SnS roundslash, the hammer whirl, and the charge blade beamsword are turbotrash

>>123780470
So Frontier = Monster Hunter?
Got it.

I expect styles and arts to stay for MH5, but I also expect that they'll probably make arts take a lot longer to charge and reduce the B-Frames of a roll in Bushido, at the very least.

>>123780713
That's so cute. I'd get them if they didn't cost 80 dollars.

>>123780725
>SnS roundslash that makes you totally invulnerable for its entire animation at any point in time in your combo

>trash

The beamsword, under optimal conditions, will probably be one of the best waking hits in the game.

The hammer whirl is better than any combo you can deal once leveled up and used at the optimal time of "when exhausted, tripped, or trapped".

What, are you just using them every opportunity you get? Because that's the wrong way to use them.

How does Duramboros hold up in MHX? Is he as fun as he was in 3U?

>>123780669
Make a room, I'll join.

>>123780470
Yeah, methodical and weighty like Kelbi bow spam, hame, sleepbombing, DB in general, and a thousand other things.
Okay anon.

>>123781020
You can aerial up to smack his humps while standing now.

>>123781109
To be fair, a lot of people make the mistake of just staying in Demon Mode the whole time, which has the drawback of having much longer attack animations and fewer opportunities to dodge cancel away, unlike archdemon mode.

MHX HR 2 room, going through the keys and beyond. We'll rotate urgents.

>staying in Demon Mode
Nobody does that.

>hasnt played the game

the SnS roundslash was heavily nerfed between what we saw in the trailers and the actual game

you get a few iframes instantly and thats it.

again, they all do fuck-all damage to begin with, doesn't matter when they are used.

>>123781327
Does "mega dash juice" sound familiar?

>>123781020
Literally the same thing. It's an incredibly lazy port of the monster just like Uragaan. Uragaan is a much bigger disappointment though because the "variant" has no changes in moveset besides the rocks it throws and the range of it's attacks

>>123781020

Excuse me?

>>123781387
The SnS roundslash gains more i-frames as it levels up, man.

What do the new SnS coatings do and what new bullets does the lbg have

>>123781401
Does "mushroomancer" sound familiar?

>>123781020
What was the bong name for this thing? Spinny rammy whammy or something like that?

2 slots.

Once we start we aren't going back if someone else joins, so get in now if you want to get these done.

>>123781558
Red works pretty much like power coating for bow, haven't tried blue yet.

SnS feels a lot stronger because of it, probably my favorite change in MHX.

>>123781401
That's a luxury. I've never ever seen someone stay in demon mode.
Unless you count people tryin too hard to get demon dances when they shouldn't.
