When I'm hunting with /mhg/ and I see someone about to cart unless I lifepowder them, I think of all the inconveniences they've done to me that hunt, and decide whether or not to save them on that.

Thinking of making a set of Fire DBs in Gen since that's what I used to fuck up a few things in 4u. Are the Glavenus DBs decent?

>>159992902
One of Generations' criticisms is that Glavenus weapons are the best at everything.

If it had a vagina

>>159994865
Shot Booster is useless since the very advantage of Pierce 5 over Pierce 4 is the innate mini shot booster.

Ammo Saver is also useless because the bow has Power 1, Power 2, and Element 2 already which is all you'd need.

You also won't be power shotting pierce that much since you need to aim very carefully for elemental zones for pierce bow to be effective and power shot can often go off mark with pierce, wasting your coating.

Get something like
>Pierce Up, Dragon Atk+2, Element Crit, Repeat Offender/Crit Eye+2
instead to maximize your elements.

Stop giving them replies.

Does Striker DB get an additional damage or something like how Striker CB gets additional axe damage?

I just don't see any advantages using it over the one more art, and the only DB art worth using seems to be Wolf's Maw. This on top of the need for Dash Juices seems to make Striker DB useless. And yet I see speedrunners use it.

If it actually gets a damage boost somewhere then I'd be willing to try it out with Mushromancer for free dash juices.

Also, what is a similar enough weapon I can pick up when I get bored from Striker SA?

Brave style details recorded so far

Brave Stance is used by hitting Y, if you hold Y you continue along to sheathe your weapon normally, sheathing overall takes longer in Brave Style, about as long as SA for every weapon
Brave Stance drains stamina at the rate that it will empty a 150 stamina bar in about 5 seconds
Brave Guard does not nullify damage, it just reduces it. It also only "blocks" attacks from the front, and cannot be cancelled into from an attack. You can only use it when you could normally sheathe your weapon.

LS: No fade slashes outside of Brave mode, cannot level up spirit
From brave stance, X does the advancing horizontal slash you do after an Adept evade, while R does the spirit slash after a fade slash.
In brave mode, get blue spirit and new spirit slashes with guard points on them.

DB:

Cannot use demon mode.
Can combo into demon's dance from an unsheathe lunge attack (or demon rush spin2win in brave mode)
While unsheathed, press R to perform the Devil Dash (or True Devil Dash in brave mode), which is a unique sprint that's very fast but quickly drains stamina. About twice as fast as sprinting while sheathed.
Filling the brave gauge enters Brave Demon Mode, which adds guard points to your dash evades that perform a spinning counter and sharpening when struck. X+A does a True Devil's Dance, which is a powered up version of the regular one. It temporarily makes you enter Demon Mode on top of Brave Demon Mode, which means the attack costs some amount of stamina to perform.

>>159999768
>Guard points on other weapons
HNNNGGGGGGG

I feel CB bros' pain though. You'll probably get another nerf, just for the hell of it.

>>159999768
SA: Cannot use transformation outside of brave stance attacks. Brave stance lets you do an axe or sword attack which puts you into that mode
Brave Mode turns your evasion into a quickstep.
Can perform the sword mode double slash by hitting A after a quickstep.
In Brave Mode, the brave stance transformation attacks instead become the axe mode finisher or the sword double slash
Phial Burst becomes much faster, and you do two consecutive blasts at the end. It drains about 50% of your phial gauge, and you remain in sword mode after doing it.

>>159998319
Huh. Neato.

>>160000206
HBG: Cannot crouch fire outside of brave mode. Press X during Brave Stance to perform Brave Reload, which increase brave gauge gain from landed shots for a fixed period of time
During brave stance, just after entering it a spark is emitted from your weapon. If you press X right at that moment, the Brave Reload is fast. Otherwise it's slow as balls and roots you in place for a while. In Brave Mode, Brave Reload also increases damage done.
In Brave Mode, you regain Crouching Fire, which can rapid fire ammo with low enough recoil. In the demo, normal shots could be fired very fast, but paralysis shots had too much kickback. Hold B during crouch fire to run, press B while running to slide, hit X+A while sliding to enter crouching fire again.

>>159997234
You can eventually starting buying Armor Sphere+ from Neko

>>160000206
Also, I'm pretty sure SA's moveset changes are a bit more extensive than that, but they weren't elaborated on that much.

>>160000549
Oh wait, in Brave Mode your regular transformation attacks are changed. Sword->Axe becomes two sideways chops into an overhead chop, and Axe->Sword is the double slash.

>>160001667
I mostly use it for AOE heavy shitmons like Hellmeme, which I've admittedly spent a while farming

I'm switching back to Guild now that that grind is over, but honestly, you might as well have only 1 art
Swarm does fuck-all and Swarm + Bug Blow is absolutely not worth it over infnite white sharpness from Absolute Readiness
Extract Hunter simply has too long of an animation in my opinion; I can only use it during downwtime or when the monster is focused on someone else, but in those times I'd rather deal damage

>>160001961
I'm still such a babby that I haven't unlocked Readiness. I might experiment with adept style sometime, the dodge is really nice.

Is there list of motion values for all hunter arts? Already looked trough the pastebin and didn't find anything.

>>160003917
Brave greatsword looks pretty good too. The guy in the video was playing like a retard walking around with his sword out. It looks like you can essentially play it like you normally would in guild, with more ability to take risky openings because when you roll out of the attack you can get a brave sheath evade instead of eating a tail swipe or some such. For charged attacks the delay before charging would be as if you did not have focus. So you start off a little slow on the charged attacks but once the meter is built you can run up and draw right into quick charge long range strong charges with roundslash finishers. It looks great. I take these videos with a grain of salt, I mean the IG brave video didn't even have red extract the whole time so they're not playing it to the best of its ability. I assume them all to be better than they look like they are, except for LBG because side step shooting doesn't seem useful in any situation at all. Well, one very rare situation: shooting while on quicksand and hopping to stay on target.

I'm thinking about picking up my first Monster Hunter

I will never play online, only solo

>>160005298

>>160005298
>The guy in the video was playing like a retard walking around with his sword out.
You seem to be missing the part where sheathing in brave style takes fucking forever. It takes easily twice as long or more compared to sheathing a GS in any other style.

>>160005298

Brave evades for GS take a considerable chunk of health, I didn't really like it to be honest but I understand it as a valid tradeoff for power

>>160005368
Because once the ramp up time is finished it would be stronger than guild as long as they didn't fuck around with the motion values like with the aerial charges being weaker.

>>160005685
I'm the one they were arguing with. I believe he meant a natural sheathe being slower, not the brave sheathe. As for the health it's not a large amount but it would add up over time and in G rank a little bit of health can make a big difference between surviving a hit and carting. But it still looks good to me. The advantages of the empowered moveset with the full meter outweigh the negatives to me.

>>160005685
Brave GS sheathes about as fast as a HBG, dude. Guild and Striker will still be way better simply because you can use double absolute evasion too.

>>160005851
You have crazy quicksteps and long range charges, and charges that take half as long as normal. What's stopping you from just not sheathing?

>>160005516
Doesn't matter when for a whole minute to a minute and a half you can't do SHIT just so you can then do a little more damage for 2 minutes.
Brave Style is shit.

>>160005797
Go watch the brave vids again.

You only lose health if you hold sheathe button like a moron waiting for the monster to hit.

If you treat it like a GPand use it right before the an attack connects then you'll only lose a blip of health that would heal back right away.

>>160005851
>Brave GS sheathes about as fast as a HBG, dude.

A sheathe that makes you completely invulnerable to attack the moment you push the button.

>>160006006
>A sheathe that makes you completely invulnerable to attack the moment you push the button.

It reduces the damage greatly, but it doesn't negate it.
Also, it only works if you tank a hit, makes you slide around like a faggot, and puts you into a sprinting animation automatically.
Just fucking use guild like a normal person.

Guy took one blip of damage, which is healed back right away a second later.

And that's the health drain from using brave sheathe, not residual damage from lagombi's attack.

Either way, the damage is so minimal it might as well be no damage at all.

>>160006181

Yes, there's some spikes in the balance like Strike SnS and Lance, but in general, all weapons are viable again, we are finally free of Charge Blade 4 Ultimate's curse.

>>160006256
CB wasn't even that good in 4U, GS and IG ran that game
SnS is worse in Gen than it was in 4U
You also forgot to mention hunter arts and styles being mostly useless and 2 monsters having all the useful equipment

>>160006109
Maybe I'll start with 3U

>>160006231
The demo is out? I'm assuming Japan only. There's a Monster Hunter Generations Special Demo in the eshop but I think that's the same demo we had before the game came out.

You barely even notice it as MonHun looks better in motion, the monsters in particular

It's not that bad, to be honest, it only shows if you used to play MH on PSP and made the jump to 3DS for 3U like I did.

Please do it then, because I'll be honest with you, MH is not for everyone. For some people it's an instant hit and they fall in love immediately with the whole carrot on a stick thing going on plus increasingly harder monsters to fight and weapons to learn, but for others it's an acquired taste that often starts with confusion and frustration.

I started as a the latter with FU back in 2008, the game confused me so much that I dropped it for 6 months before picking it up again, but it's been nothing but a fun ride ever since and I'm glad I gave it another chance.

Aren't private demos like TGS demos and such get uploaded to freeshop? Because they are on eshop only hidden right?

>>160007218
well I just completed the easy demo boss
I like it, the controls and camera are a little strange to control but I think I'd get used to it, I use the touch screen camera rather than L

I used the hammer, It took me like 8 minutes I think idk if thats good or bad

>>160008397
You literally just started, don't worry about whether you're good or not

>>160008397

You can resize the virtual D-Pad if you want, and don't worry about clear times in the demo, just find which weapon(s) you have most fun with stick with them.

kinda hard, the water bit was a little cluster fuck

>>160008543
>>160008579
Just killed it

The water bits were sometimes frustrating but overall it was pretty enjoyable
maybe if I get down the controls some more

do you guys you use the virtual d-pad?

Do you mh3u Longsword users still main Longsword in mh4u? If yes, does the time to kill still the same or different?

>>160008579
is there a lock on feature on the main game?

Do you guys think there will be a MHG to MHXX save converter?

>>160010008
Already confirmed. If you mean Generations to japanese XX then I'm sure someone will have a way to make it work. They got X to convert to Gen, I don't see why they couldn't do it in reverse.

>>160009545
I do, TTK doesn't seem to change, you don't have the fade slash into spirit attack combo that you do in 4u and gen, but it's easier to keep the gauge up since landing a round slash at red charge refills it and it only drops one level at a time.

>LBG are safer, have more utility and do more damage than HBG and bows


This what I hate about monster hunter, there's so many cool weapons but you're just making the game harder for yourself by using it

like gunlances, they're so much cooler than lances but they're also worse in everyway in terms of actually fighting a monster

Sometimes the GL's significantly different moveset can an advantage over the Lance, but now the damage is really kind of lacking, yeah. Again, some may be more comfortable with it however.

>>160018635
But there is a reason. And it's the most important one. And that reason is because you find it fun.

the gunlance is harder to use and does less damage than the lance, it's for special snowflake hunters only

What past MGS game did this? Being open world or linear really doesn't decide that the game will have poorly crafted environment, whatever that means.

3DS has lock on because there's no other way to have decent control otherwise. The PSP has L trigger too.

>Being open world or linear really doesn't decide that the game will have poorly crafted environment

Not always true, but mostly is. The reality is reality. Open world games cost more time and money to make a large environment let alone having the ability to make interesting levels.

What's a good 5-slot skill I can gem in for LBG?

But no lock-on, making clawing practically mandatory.

>>160022142
That's not part of the 3DS nor something official.

>>160022608
Clawing sucks. The soft lock is way better.

>>160022039
You can do all that in open world. Level design is level design, separate from the open world aspect. You can have semi open world base like Ground Zeroes or segregated zones base like Groznyl Grad and still you need to think about gameplay all the same. The rest of the open world is just padding, that's why they are barren. The open world in MGSV is just padding for the players to get from Level A to Level B. How they tackle level design in those levels are separate matters.

Also nowadays environment asset are done with copy paste tools and such, making development easy.

>>160022825

If the GL had slightly stronger Shells and overall did more damage, that's all it would need to be better, right? Just a +20 to all the GLs attack in the armory?

I actually like the Heat Gauge so I don't see that needing removing, It makes GL feel even more different from Lance, I think GL's biggest problem is that they simply don't have high enough base attack.

Not that guy but even when the 3DS has the lock on (which is a software feature, not hardware), it still has bad ergonomics on top of the bad analog and dpad placement.

I never played on a non-xl 3ds, would probably be much worse

>>160023558
Would anyone here trade the GL's shield for higher overall attack and less ending-lag?
I honestly would, I find myself side-stepping far more often than blocking, and it still gets to me that it'll always be seen as "Lance but a gimmick". Just make them two-handed bayonets, simple.

Hell you can probably use the dpad like normal more often since you don't have to uncomfortably retract your thumb from your resting point on the analog. The reason why analogs are better on bottom is because you always rest your thumbs on the analogs and you stretch outwards to reach the face buttons and dpad.

>Just make them two-handed bayonets, simple.
Funny, I was just thinking not too long ago that I would've preferred the gunlance to do more damage and have the shield dropped as well, but you're shit out of luck if you think they're gonna change the design of an established weapon so radically like that.

I'm feeling around the device and I think swapping the bits would only work with the 2ds
just how the 3ds is made I feel I have to push up on the device for better grip and swapping them would put the circle pad too low and cramp up my thumb, this doesn't happen with the dpad because you thumb isn't always on it

On 2ds that problem is alleviated due to all the extra distance from the bottom but then kinda gets fucked by bumper placement

Sadly, Japanese developers put too much credence in something's first appearance, same thing happens with Pokemon.
>but fans will get angry!
Some fans will ALWAYS get angry at any change or addition to games, if they can't handle trying out a new weapon/style/character/one of the other hundreds of monsters, then they're not a fan worth pandering to. The developers are hindering the development of the series otherwise.
>Levitate will never be a state for pokemon rather than an entire Ability

What gen 1 pokemon would you retype?

>>160024746
>Some fans will ALWAYS get angry at any change or addition to games
Pokemon you mentioned is the best case, they always release the same game and people whine about the most irrelevant things non-stop.

Meanwhile MH has been changing wildly ever since Tri and people have been okay with it but now that the jump from 4U to Gen is almost nothing these threads have become infested with Pokemon autists that want to force that meme on MH.

Primeape's entire concept and dex entries are the definition of Dark type, it should be Dark or at least Fighting/Dark
Fighting is about martial arts and focused, precise moves. Primeape is about chasing fuckers down and thrashing wildly. That was even its signature move, which was also Normal type

Fearow and Persian are cunts, too, they'd fit being half Dark type.

>>160025157
I think Alolan Meowth/Persian are dark type now, but yeah I can see those changes. They should have done that when they introduced fairy types at least.

If you wanna gank a helpless animal with flashy moves, at least play dragons dogma which has weight to the attacks.

I'm not sure what you mean by that, but if it's that you are fighting helpless animals that only applies to Arzuros and Duramboros.

as a fan of pokemon the biggest problem with pokemon games is they add some new thing, take away 3 great things that were in the previous instalment, and then maybe, just maybe, fix 1 core gameplay fuckup/imbalance out of 20.
And worse is when they try to balance the game by, instead of just fixing the type-chart or improving the stats and movepools of weaker pokemon, introducing a gaudy game-breaking mechanic with an abstract rule that prevents most of the pokemon available from benefiting from it, causing even greater inbalance I'm talking about Megas, of course

Heres a MH picture so this is relevant.

>>160025795
I dunno, it looks more like they are just dancing with weapons while the game slows down when they hit. Also for what purpose did they make a scorpio class?

>>160025795
Is this some kind of online jrpg?

This. When 4U was released, I saw little to no whining about the CB, new stuff like the Frenzy, no real major complaints to both hunter and moveset changes except maybe Khezu (which was a complaint that it didn't change) but after Gen was released I'm seeing a bunch of autists crying about how MH should be this dark and realistic game, or how magical elements aren't wanted (despite shit like the Spirit Blade or Demon Mode existing), crying about FU and Tri and how people want relic grinding back, there was even a guy complaining you don't get 3 kelbi horns from the subquest rewards in the kelbi horm collection quest.

Don't get me wrong, I think Gen has a lot of problems like its gathering quests or how deviants are handled, and certainly not all change is good, but the bitching has become sickening to listen to as of late.

>>160025272
Alolan forms feel like a convenient excuse to "fix" or redo gen 1 designs they were never satisfied with. But again, an addition, never a retcon.
Alolan Gunlance without a shield when?
