>In addition to the popular franchise’s upcoming 3DS RPG Monster Hunter Stories, Capcom has plans for a new Monster Hunter title and more according to their financial results briefing for the year ended March 31, 2016.
>Keep in mind that two million units isn’t exactly the number Capcom would expect from a main entry Monster Hunter title, but we’ll likely hear about a new spinoff title for the series [for console] in addition to Monster Hunter Stories, based on what was mentioned in the financial results briefing.

Striker gets rid of EVERYTHING the HH needs. HH only has one good art, so you are better off putting Arisen Phoenix. It has

>>151582939
It's even more gross. It regresses HH to the point of MHFU, where it was nigh unusable, and HH has only TWO arts worth using.Harmonize and Arisen Phoenix. Having a third FILLER is nowhere NEAR worth sacrificing the moves you lose.

I see a lot of people complaining about Amatsu's cyclone in X. I haven't fought him yet, but did they change it from P3rd, where all you had to do was sprint away and not run out of stamina like an idiot?

I'm new to this series. If a Greatsword has 100 attack, and Dual Swords has 100 attack, would the DS be better because it's faster?

>>151585532
>>151585686
There's something called motion values that are hidden. These motion values deal a percentage of your listed damage.
Since dualblades attack faster, they have a lower motion value, while greatswords have a higher motion value.
Theoretically, two weapons that are equal in attack should be balanced.

No you didn't. You just had to run away and unless you took way too long to start running and/or were already out of stamina when you started running, you'd be far away from Amatsu when the attack finally comes out.

It seems to me that most people like 4U better than 3U, but I prefer 3U's weapon balance and monster roster and I'll take swimming over 4U's shitty vertical maps any day.
>>151583967
That shit looks like if it belongs to a Disgaea game.
I didn't know shit about MH stores until this thread.
How the hell do you form armor from parts of a monster and then it still let's you ride it.
If I formed a suit of armor from my dog I don't think it would be keen on letting me ride it into a fight.
Does absolute readiness not reload Gunlance??
>>151586024
MH4U was pretty great for endgame content imoRajang was just too point-heavy when it comes to GQs and Apex has its own flaws though
3U/Tri had great monsters, Underwater was a thing (for better or worse), and a not so hardcore endgame, being comfy for many. The monsters usually are what people remembered most, being "better" than most 2nd gen stuff.

I started with FU... and I hate it beyond words. It's a rough game with terrible graphics, AI, Hitboxes that for some reason FU nostalgia afflicted players can't seem to remember correctly (PS: They were complete bullshit!)
Most of the older players think the series sucks now because it caters to "babies" when in reality it was just a garbage game before 3rd gen with an AMAZING amount of content and deep mechanics...
Like honestly I love 3U, I loved Tri, I loved P3rd... I pretty much don't know why I stuck with FU... I got to mid G-Rank made Death Stench armor...
I don't get why people have nostalgia goggles for the older titles in this series... probably because it felt special to be the only ones playing it here in the states LOL... ugh. 3U was great though.

Question for those who use Kiranico for Gen data:
What do the two hit-data sections (A, B) mean exactly? Is it before a part is broken, or is it when the monster's enraged?
For example, I see Dreadqueen's head takes 21 cutting in A, but 45 in B's respective columns...

FUfag here.
I like FU. In the beginning everything wrecked me, from Khezu to Tigrex, but it gets better as you're getting more familiar with the game.
Solo my way up to high rank, there are some shitboxes in that game, yes, but honestly I didn't have much problem with it.
I used a Lance for Plesioth and Khezu and that turns them into punching bags.
Raths in particular are much easier than their gen 3 counterpart because they have less moves, slower and very predictable.
Aside from that I can't really think of anything else that I had trouble with, Tiggy and Rajang maybe, and the elders.

>>151588580
Ah, much better.
>>151588781
i REALLY HATE HOW THE ARTIST DECIDED TO TATTOO HIS SIGNATURE ON TAMA'S FUCKING TONGUE
What the fuck clownsuit do TA runners use to get;
Weakness Exploit: 78 (97%)
Razor Sharp: 70 (87%)
Critical Boost: 68 (85%)
Critical Eye: 65 (81%)
I know a charm +___ OOO is used but fuck
>>151588180
I think something people forget about FU and earlier games (even 3U is an extent) is how predictable the monsters movements were. Yeah they had wacky hitboxes, but you always knew if you stood directly behind a Tigrex he'd do 2 turns to face you (and your lvl 3 GS charge).
>>151589037
That would be easy as fuck with just a sharoness+5 3 slot and silver sol with hayabusa
>>151589037
Hayabusa Feather, Vaik Faulds, the rest Silver Sol.
>>151588854
The lowercase 'i' suggests that you hit caps lock by mistake, but the length of your post says that you just rolled with it anyway.
Or that you hit caps lock and then immediately forgot that the 'i' would be capitalized and hit shift anyway. I can't decide which would be funnier.
>>151589037
It's not really a clownsuit, it's Silver Solmail + Hayabusa Feather.

>>151590027
Depends on the raw of the weapon. crit eye+2 and crit boost is an 8% increase in raw on your weapon. If your weapon has more than ~188 raw, then crit eye + crit boost is better than AuL.
So assuming i have access to all monsters bar deviants, what would be the best choice to start playing glaive?
Is the Hunting Horn worth using for a party of 4 assuming the user is decent with it? What's the damage like?

>>151590640
Do the math.
Hunting horn is equal to about 0.5 real weapons. If the boost from hunting horn's songs to the weapons your team is using sums to .5 real weapons or more, you are not dragging the team down.
>>151591017
But it's true, amigo.
>>151590870
If you enjoy the weapon sure, but don't expect fast run times.
Is HR Shaggy the easiest source of Heavy Armor Spheres?
He may not be the fastest to die, and his quest has a slightly lower drop rate, but there's always a lobby up for farming him, and randoms usually know what to do.
>>151590640
>>151590870
Yes. Every weapon can be useful. HH isn't as fast at dealing damage, but it's got good mobility, buffs are nice, and if you have fun, use it.
Every weapon can be used to great effect. The best weapon type in the game is the one you enjoy waving around the most. Anyone telling you otherwise is a snob for <insert weapon here>.
>>151590640
Dude, HH is useful in party of any size.
>>151591270
It's a hard life not knowing what I like to swing around the most.
>>151591017
its even more true than playing with 4 people though
>>151591237
I'd say yes, Hypers aren't too good for fast farming because they change areas.
A flat arena is always better.

>>151592574

>>151590870
I use HH and I solo all village quests in MH4U, and use it all the way until I finished G3.
I do it too in MHGen, but stopped using it for village after I beat Out of Fry Pan.
2 five monsters quest, twin rajang, and twin rath are 4 quest I cleared without using HH.
So yeah, it's viable, but as >>151591125 said, don't expect fast run times.
>>151582838
I only used it once, during training quest.
Never again.

Absolute Readiness is probably what I would say should be your third if you do Striker Horn. But as cool as it is, and as nice as the skill is, it's not worth it.
Harmonize is the only good HH specific art, and Phoenix is damn good because a HH user should ALWAYS have their buffs, so it's a pretty damn big heal if you've got a few songs on, and all you gotta do is play them again.
Absolute Readiness is NOT enough to make up for what Striker strips from you.
Imagine if you couldn't charge with the GS, or if you couldn't charge your shield with the CB. This is what Striker Horn feels like.
>>151593132

Of course. The less time I have to play songs, the more time I have to wail on the monster.
HH's a balancing act. Play too much, and your damage suffers. Don't play enough, and you aren't being buffed enough (And your damage can suffer if one of your songs is AuL). Maestro makes it much easier to focus on damaging while still keeping up buffs.

The Coil is the least bullshitty thing about that stupid snake.
It's a shit fight because so much of him is out of play as a target for most weapons in the game, because half the time once you're in a position to actually attack him he'll do a back hop halfway across the map, and the other half of the time he'll do some attack that pushes you out of the way because his tail has to curl all over the place for him to make any movement, and because the intended way to fight him is to actually hit a snake in the knees.
>>151594314
Spirit of rage
Whenever you kill a monster, it has a chance to rise back up, possessed by a spirit of rage.
You can run back to camp and turn in a ticket to exit, or fight the monster again. Occasionally the spirit of rage will show itself when you knock it out of the monster.

Barioth is basically nargacuga but with more moves so you make zero sense.

>>151595457
Only 4U gets a New 3DS boost.
I see people sat that the akantor horn is really good, but it has like no green sharpness at all.
Having a higher effective damage output isnt great when there's the lsm to worry about
i imagine you'd have to clownsuit+godcharm pretty fucking hard to get WE+crit boost+sharpness+1/2
>>151595025
Yeah, its legs are the weak point, which is part of why it's so unsatisfying to fight once you know how. It'd be like if Deviljho's arms were half the size they are now, and took 4x damage, while his legs and tail auto-bounced, and he walked upright like a 70's style tyrannosaurus 95% of the time.
There's no real 'baiting' Najarala's bite attack in any meaningful way. You can stand where he can hit you with it and he'll use it sometimes, but he's just as likely to start trying to coil around you, do a tailwhip, do a backhop, or throw out those exploding scale things (which for some reason have massive wind pressure).
And you really needn't bother with the last part; my favorite monsters are either dead or are already the biggest pariahs in the game. My favorite was Lagi when you could still swim, and my favorite of what's left isRathalos.

Maestro is ALWAYS a safe bet for Hunting Horn. But you probably knew that.
My friend used to tell me a joke, which was "The best way to make a HH set is to get a good generic blademaster set and slap on Maestro", which is pretty right, but particular skills that are useful are...
(HG) EARPLUGS: Monsters do next to nothing during roars aside from the roar. This is a great time for a recital, and earplugs help you do it.
EVADE +#/EVADE EXTENDER: You should always be rolling out of recitals to cancel that lag, and Rolling is a good positioning tool. And unlike SnS, Evade Extender is also nice because it can get you out of jams (being close to the head and all)
ATTACK UP (L): There is never a weapon type that couldn't benefit from his.
BLUDGEONING: Just a cool little thing that's pretty useful for certain horns with not a lot of sharpness, which is NICE for the Akantor horn.
KO KING: Faster KOs. Personally, I don't think it's worth it if it's not closed to already being there, but to each their own.
Other than that, just make a generic BM set and slap on Maestro if you can.
>>151595664
yeah but it has just the barest sliver of green on it
thats like what? ten swings before you have to sharpen or absolute readiness.
I mean if it charges that fast then its fine otherwise stopping to sharpen like that seems like a pain in the ass
every time someone suggest evade extender on hunting horn i feel my soul being pierced by arrows
>>151595707
>KO KING: Faster KOs. Personally, I don't think it's worth it if it's not closed to already being there, but to each their own.
Anon.
Anon please.
Stop telling people that KO King is worth the points.
10% extra KO damage is basically nothing.Unless that changed in Gen and I sound like a retard now.
>>151595609
You don't use Sharpness +1 with akantor horn.
Crit Boost, Razor Sharp and WE are the main skills.
Razor Sharp doubles your green, combined with readiness and the green will hold out for quite a while, considering horn is a pretty slow weapon.
The horn has 40% affinity on its own so with WE it's 90% on weakpoints, and Crit Boost because of fucking course.
>>151595707
>which is nice for the akantor horn
It's better to have a specific set for the Aka horn, though.
Sharp +1/Crit Boost/Weakness Exploit
Can't let that 40% natural affinity go to waste.
It's better than Blunt.
So I've been playing a lot of Generations, and is it just me, or does it feel a lot more tedious then 4U?
Like seriously, everything seems like a lot more of a pain the ass.
I'm not the only one who's feeling this, right?
>>151595609
If you run razor sharp and absolute readiness, you can keep that sliver of green going indefinitely as long as you don't hit any hard parts
>>151595784
oh yeah razor sharp exists
>>151595825
Start is tedious as fuck due to the overabundance of gathering/small monster quests.

What?
>>151595804
I'm just speaking in general, really. There's a lot of horns Blunt is good with, and Akantor was the first that came to mine. But yeah, you're right, if you're using Akantor horn, go for a specific set. Bludgeoning is good for the other low sharpness horns.Forgive me, I'm running on a liter of rootbeer and thirty minutes of sleep in the past two days.
>>151595783
I just said that I don't think it's worth it unless you are like...one point away from it and have a few empty slots.
You're right, though, it is still pretty shitty.
>>151595783
I feel like people continuously misunderstand skills like KO King, Status, and the like.
The constant judgement seems to be "It doesn't reduce that number of hits necessary, so it sucks".
But that's not the point.
A monster's recovery for status is really slow. KO King may not lower the number of hits necessary if you hit it perfectly until it's KOd, but the KO King skill will nullify the monster's next "recovery", giving you a handful of seconds to find your window.
It doesn't reduce the number of hits if you're perfect, but in literally any other situation you're better off with it.
>>151596097
You can just eat for Slugger and get the same effect without sacrificing an armor skill for it.
Unless you're one or two points away from it, or it's literally the only other thing you can get (like >>151596061 said), you're better off trying to get something else.
>>151593635
Is charging the shield even worth anything now? GP are ded, AED is still shit, axe mode is still ass

There are conflicting reports on whether Whetfish restore ALL of your sharpness, or only as much as a mini whetstone. The former usually come from Tri topics, while the latter usually come from 4U topics. Does anyone have a definite answer?
>>151596360
There is no such thing as stones or whetfish restoring different amounts of sharpness.
>>151594314
Deified monsters eg. Sky God Rathalos
You know shit like that.
>>151596448
I mean, you're wrong, but ok. Use the same weapon with a lot of green, get it down to yellow, use a whetstone. You'll see it yourself. Whetstones restore noticeably more sharpness than mini whetstones.
is there any way to make palicos stop hitting me when confused?

If you take a comically overpowered weapon and give it needed nerfs, you're not left with garbage. You're left with a balanced weapon.
CB is indisputably weaker than it was in 4U, but as a someone that could never use CB in 4U properly, MHGen's CB feels fantastic.

>>151597085
A direct answer is not a good answer if it's a wrong answer. I don't see how my question was flawed, though. It's plain and straightforward. It could even be answered with as little as "yes" or "no".

Why does the HH's encore animation change depending on what song you're playing? It's so unintuitive.
>>151597368
The answer is that you think you're onto a mechanic that doesn't exist. All three items restore exactly the same sharpness. You may also be interested to know that you can catch Mew if you can get to that little truck on an island and walk its perimeter 151 times.
>>151597405
Length of the original song (though I think that only changes for the 2-note songs compared to the longer ones) and the direction you're holding are what changes it, IIRC.
>>151597405
It's only the 2 note song that gets a different animation. Kind of makes sense, since you've got less invested in it.

>>151598229
Don't ignore the level 1 charge, which is fast and allows you to easily combo out of it.
Side-slap (A) is fast, weakish but fast. Can be combo'd into the second pound and the golfswing.
The first hit of the triple pound is also pretty strong and a worthwhile choice if you can get just one hit in.
Spin-cancel is remarkably solid for some things, like Teo. You can also continue a combo after the cancel.
Hammer truly has no useless moves.
>>151598165
>Do you have to go full elemental damage?
Nope.
There are some really ferociously good raw damage LBG's in Generations.
HBG's have Gunpowder Infusion, which is generally considered to be a larger DPS increase than Full House, and HBG's have (I think?) a 1.12x damage multiplier to their raw damage shots which means they hit harder than LBG's.
You play LBG exactly the same way you play HBG, only with faster sheathing.
>>151598002
>Adept Hammer
>HGE
>Weakness Exploit
>Break claws where applicable
>Break face and go for KO's
Golf swings are always good, and the level 3 Beyblade swing is good for building up KO when a monster is toppled or in a trap.
Roll to cancel charge attacks to you aren't locked into an attack animation.
You shouldn't be getting hit that much; hammer is pretty mobile while drawn, like LS or SnS.
>>151598229
Not that anon, but I have two questions regarding hammer: Why should I use guild over adept if I can consistently get the adept dodges, and should I use spinning meteor or typhoon trigger when playing solo(and should I use provoke at all)?
>>151598229
Still unsure about what style to settle on. I've tried Guild, Aerial, and Adept and I've done poorly with all of them. Doing the bounce with aerial is fun, but I don't want to rely on it.
Would you say that guild is best for hammer?
>>151598298
the transitions now makes more sense because there aren't any skips to AED.
>>151598384
>Why should I use guild over adept if I can consistently get the adept dodges
As someone who has been hammering since FU and got very used to the fluidity of the normal hammer, Adept hammer feels clunky as shit.
Can't easily chain golfswing into a new triple pound, no uppercut outside of the adept dodge charge and the super golfswing is slow as balls.
I can see it working on some monsters (I really have to give adept hammer vs. Jho a go), but I could never main it.

>level 3 Beyblade swing is good for building up KO when a monster is toppled or in a trap.
The lvl 3 attack is for dealing elemental damage (Hammers historically have very strong elemental values, but low synergy with elemental damage outside of the spin) and for timing a Golf Swing since it hits harder than a superpound.
[DO NOT] Use the Spin for KO damage.
[DO] Use the Triple Pound for KO damage.
>>151598384
>Spinning Meteor or Typhoon Trigger
Meteor does more damage and is easier to land, but takes longer to charge.
Trigger does more KO damage and charges faster, but is easier to whiff. Maybe I'm just shit though.
Provoke is very strong for online play, near useless solo.

>play a halfassed hunt with lbg pierce monster dies in 8 minutes
>try to seriously to play with lbg pellet kill monster in 15 minutes
Do pellet shots has a critical distance? I can't find the sweetspot for the damn thing
>>151598517
Spin cancel yo.
As much KO damage as an uppercut and faster than spin-golfswing. Combos easier too.
The spin golfswing is amazing, but I think it's best for medium openings, big enough to get your spins on, but not big enough to get a full triple pound going.
>>151598759
you do the gimmicky aerial pellet with spread up+vault+and 100%crit to make it viable
>>151598384
>if I can consistently get the adept dodges
that's not impressive
anyway the lvl 2 uppercut is pretty important
also being able to do the 2 hit from a lvl 1 charge
having 2 arts (meteor/trigger + absolute readiness) is good too
>no more graphic for throwing paintballs at fellow hunters
>>151598951
>you can't hit corpses monsters now because people would use a corpse to get easy hunter art refills
>>151594626
Did you know why people saveedit the mats instead of make the actual fully upgraded weapon?
>>151598491
That's a good point. Adept dodging is so addicting though, y'know? There are some monsters that it's just such a hard counter to that it's hard to adjust to playing without it. (Jho)
>>151598604
I'll probably stick with meteor or readiness, then. I have a really bad tendency to whiff arts so I usually save them for when monsters are down/paralyzed. Thanks for the tip.
>>151598915
>that's not impressive
It wasn't supposed to be impressive. It was asking how much stronger adept's strong charge is compared to regular charge. And don't you want to return to idle from a golfswing instead of charging, assuming you have enough of an opening to get out another golfswing?
>>151598649
What leg is that
>>151598759
They don't have a critical distance, but the farther you're away, the less pellets hit your (intended) target.
Also anything that's not Pellet 3 is pretty shit, IIRC.
>>151599126
Looks like I'm sticking with my pierce lbg until I get my hands on a steve lbg/a lbg with rf pellet 3 if that exists
>>151598759
>>151599126
Pellet S has a different kind of critical distance.
Rather than distance altering the damage of each hit, the number of hits landed changes with distance. You want to be slightly closer than you'd stand with Pierce S, but further away than when you're fire Normal S.
If you're REALLY far away, only a single pellet will hit. You can see this on flying monsters like Remobra.
i didn't fight amatsu in p3rd
what should i expect in gen
>>151599176
RF Pellet 3 does not exist, and the medium wait on RF Pellet2/1 means it's probably a one-way ticket to base camp.

How much damage loss am I gonna feel if I switch from a Fighter palico to an assist bias? I don't want my hunts to drag but not being able to freely Emergency Retreat when I'm being sloppy makes me feel like I'm slowing down to be extra safe.

Absolute readiness only keeps your sharpness going paired with razor sharp and using it every time right when its ready. I tried out absolute readiness when I started gunlancing cause the description made it sound like it would reload the gunlance which, guess what, it doesnt; but even then it was basically as effective as a a steve weapon evade except 10 times less useful cause its one-and-done and gotta wait until the meter is filled to try again.
Absolute readiness is a meme. people seriously using it are seriously missing out on better options of play.
>>151601219
You make it sound like the HH has many other useful options for Arts.
>>151600590

after a perfect guard, press a to instantly do the charged a attack. the perfect guard itself also adds some charge to the sword

>Giggi better than Khezu
tip toppity kek my friend
>>151603076
Not in Generations.
Load Up makes yellow charge refill 5 phials and red fills 10 phials. Combined with focus which gives you yellow charge from just one Charged A attack, you can pull off ultras in a matter of seconds. Combined with Limit Breaker 3, you can fill all 10 phials with a single red charge which gives you access to a buttload of damage for two whole minutes.
Yet another way you can tell the japanese "slow runners" are retarded is loking at their CB list. Barely any usage of Limit Breaker, 30% use load up and absolutely none use focus.
Japanese brains just dont work too good.

>>151603484
i don't see what's so good about that. ultra has half the mv it had in 4 and the same mv as normal aed, it's garbage. it's strictly worse than just using aed since having to charge the shield every time limits your dps, all you get is the extra phial damage. using load up and focus limits skill points for offensive skills, you need to charge up load up to even start dishing out damage in the first place
keeping red charge is retardedly easy with adept style since perfect guard allows you to charge the shield insanely fast (a for charged a attack, x to instantly transfer all phials to the shield). i've watched cb speedruns where they literally grab red shield and 5 phials just after the monster rages, it's so easy
>>151603603
Khezu, gypceros, kut-ku, and garuga need to be flushed down a toilet. There wouldmt even be nostalgia fags for MH games if capcom didnt fuck up tri by making online rooms 4 people instead of 8 like MH2 on top of removing all the weapons they added into MH2.
Like mechanically Tri was subpar to MH2 but design wise in almost every audio and visual aspect it was clearly the leaps and bounds expected from a sequel.
If capcom didn't fuck up tri then we would have had MH5 by now instead og MH4U and Generations jerking off the older fanbase who couldn't comprehend how to play MH without mashing demon dance and shelling their teammates.

Finding Piercing Boomerangs that isn't innate is rather rare. Keep searching for reds and check every town's meowperson since every town has different cats after each quest.
>>151604994
All the new fights are good because they're design in a non-retarded way:

>no 1 frame charges
>no -1 damage frames
>no chip damage!! not even on hellblade glav
>high motion valued attacks ALWAYS lead to longer openings
>hitboxes that aren't fucking garbage
>>151605516
Because you should've specified that your cat is an assist type. Piercing boomerangs is an innate skill that only fighter cats have, so set your bias to fighter. All cats have 2 innate skills, first one cannot be taught and is unique, second one is one out of 2 possible skills and can be taught. For fighter cats, in the second slot, you can have either Piercing Boomerangs or Demon Horn.

It's an embarrassingly simple mindset when it comes to designing and balancing fights. It's the same as thinking that it's ALWAYS better for windup to directly correlate with damage output - it takes so many interesting options off the table that it would really ruin the entire franchise if it took off as a hard and fast design rule.
Start with the fact that you're basically just saying "an opening is an opening is an opening" and only differentiating them by length, rather than, say, balancing an opening to a high-vulnerability hit zone against an opening to a medium-vulnerability hit zone, or balancing a brief opening to a safe position (where you're open to fewer/weaker counterattacks once the opening is over) against a long opening to a risky position.
Oversimplified design rules lead to oversimplified games. I don't want to play Monster Hunter: Might As Well Be Turn-Based Edition.

I have the waist pigmented to the same color (not in that pic) as the ceanataur armor but I don't like the shape of it in general

The entire RGB spectrum isn't enough?
>>151582452
how long until ASS gets image previews of sets like it did in 4U?
>>151607376
It's difficult to make an argument for HGE / Focus / Crit Draw when you can use Dreadking and get HGE / Focus / Weakness Exploiter / Attack Up Large.
Wind Res is also arguably better than Partbreaker, though neither is particularly relevant.
>>151607938
You have superarmor while charging GS. I'd rather have partbreaker.
>>151607872
I'm guessing he means being able to select both main armor color and trim.
Or something like that, at least.
>>151607872
Not him, but some armors just allow you to change a trim or a small emblem.
Doesn't change much to them.
>>151607872
On 90% of the armor pieces, the color pigment applies to a secondary or even tertiary color; rarely the primary color present in armor piece. Capcom wouldn't be able to get away with changing the color of a set and calling it a different set if they just gave the players the option to fully color code their outfits.
They're called clownsuits for a reason ya know.
>>151608020
Yeah hey me too, but that's not the point I was making.
I said WE + AuL > Crit Draw.
Makes sense?
>>151607938
Fair enough then
>>151607893
Never. The hype isn't as big as 4U's so the dev won't include that feature.
>>151608193
The difference isn't too large. When looking at draw attacks exclusively, the Grimclaw set is marginally better.
It also lookslewder, if you're into that sort of thing.
>>151607376
If you go with full silver rath replacing the helmet with the hayabusa feather you can get WE, CE+2, crit up and focus. You'll need a 1 slot wepaon though. If you use the regular nargacuga GS your affinity will be 100% when hitting weak areas. Even on a weapon with 0 base affinity you'll still have 70% which is pretty good.

mhg can you help me on this?
I was checking the MHX TA speedruns for Hammer and according to the list, Hammer's end game skills most popular are:
Weakness Exploit: 84 (97%)
Critical Eye: 67 (77%)
Critical Boost: 58 (67%)
I checked Ping's dex and its impossible to have these 3 skills. So my question is the endgame Hammer skills? I know Weakness Exploit is a must but which one takes priority, critical eye or critical boost? is it critical eye + 2 or 3? after choosing either 2 which one should be next ? Hg Earplugs?
thanks
>>151609032
Use Athena's instead.
>>151608295
That CritBoost stuff is actually one setup I have as well, with the other being Tigrex Great Sword + Black S with a PunishDraw +6 OOO talisman that I could probably swap for AuM with Attack +8 OOO. So with Guild/Striker which one is actually more consistently damaging?
And when factoring in either Grimclaw or Dreadking, I'm not exactly entirely sure what I should be focusing on for some kind of goal. I haven't really bothered with deviants yet but I'm sure I'll have to grind Hellblade like everyone else at some stage.
>>151608284But I play a male

speed for 30% affinity buff from white essence or balanced if you're a triple buff cuck
EE got nerfed from 2x duration to 1.5x
wide area bug is a really fun meme with a room of IGers
>>151609032
With Hayabusa + Silver Sol, you already have a Crit Eye + 2, WE and CB set. It's far from impossible. Most of the time, crit eye in the TAs is crit eye plus 2 thanks to hayabusa.
As for which one takes priority, you could probably calculate, with different affinities, where the tipping point is. I have no idea but obviously if you have low affinity, Crit Eye will contribute more than Crit Boost.

Baraq Sedition, the SA. Qadar Sedition is also nice, and if you want a Long GL for some reason there's always Tamarod Sedition.
The GS line is sorta alright but is nice to use earlier in the game. Hellblade Glavenus weapons rule the roost for almost every Blademaster weapon, though I heard Zealous Sedition for an LS is supposedly okay. Kama Sedition got nerfed, think Vayu Sedition took a hit as well?
It seems to take more rolls to sharpen though, must be five across all weapons.

>>151610189
And who is the one holding me down?
What's a good Absolute Evade/Absolute Readiness/Enraged Guard Lance set to use?
I am currently using the full Silverwind Nargacuga set, and with Weakness Exploit + Narga Weapon i get well past 100% crit chance with 40% increased damage, but i kind of want a set to use with the Hellblade Glavenus Lance for faster Arts Gauge.
Is it even worth it in terms of damage? 100% affinity and basically permanently 40% more damage with the Narga Lance might be stronger than Hellblade with Attack Up (L) and such.
>>151610207
i like brachydios, fuck off

I can't stand Brachy either but that's because i blow against him
>>151607376
Just go Dreadking with a 1 slot. I don't think anything beats WE + AuL with Focus and HGE. Especially if you're constantly getting follow up lvl 3 charges (which is often initiated during a roar).
With that charm you should make a solid bow set. Even if you never use it, it can get you 5 skills (Load Up, Normal Up, Trushot Up, Focus, Ammo Saver).
Still trying to farm one :/

He's just a shittier-in-every-way version of the MHGen incarnation of Lagiacrus.
He's "well-designed" if your criteria for "well-designed" just means coming up with a list of arbitrary things that a monster isn't "supposed" to do, and making sure that the monster doesn't do any of those things, without actually requiring that the monster do anything fun or interesting.

The HH part is bullshit and they're probably playing wrong, but para SnS has been a thing in groups for ages. With only 1-2 people para SnS isnt important. In a full group 3 paras is useful in a hunt when combined with exhaust oil for KOs.
>>151611714
Nigga you stupid.
Trap/para/KO/mount lock by a single "support" SnS with 190 raw will give the other 3 people so much more time to DPS non-stop instead of having to chase the monster randomly charging from one corner of the zone to another.

Status spam maybe, but you actually do plenty of damage with SnS attacks, unlike status shots.

You really don't need load up with artillery expert. I'd say pick one or the other.
I can't believe I thought as a joke "what if they just made the variant just stay in the air literally the entire fight and flash bombs are the only way to actually get any damage in".
And not only was that the entire fight, the rest of the "fight" consisted of 30 minutes of me running like a dipshit between zones because he'd stay for 15 seconds in one area before running to a different one.

For many of them (level 7 or 8), they have a capture quest.
The problem is, you can't bring items, and the only ones you get are from the supply chest.
Are you seeing the problem yet?

Nah you get a second trap when supplies arrive. If you screw up twice you deserve to fail.
