It was a rathian image actually.

Does Barioth (in the XX demo) actually have anything resembling clear attack patterns? It seems like it has at least 3 different attacks it can use for any given situation. Is there some way to bait it into a slow turn or is it completely random?

>>169796671

>>169797052

>>169797080
Doesn't fucking matter, especially if what you're wondering about is its attack patterns.

>>169797052
The multiplayer one has bloated as fuck hp. Why do you think there's no speedrunners that use the multi one?

>>169797135
Of course it matters, especially if he's thinking of memorizing the attack patterns to be used in the single player mode (to make videos, for example). The cats will still be there and fuck up the pattern.

>>169797315
>The cats will still be there
They won't. That's the whole point.

>Deviants still use the dame crappy music
I wasn't really expecting them to change it, but it's still disappointing. Can't believe they'd play that tripe for more than a dozen monsters.

nyan!

what kind of talisman do I need to use alongside the silverwind set. avoid distance above 10 is useless, right? So I will go for crit boost?

File: 1484699684273.png (155KB, 351x338px) Image search: [Google]

155KB, 351x338px

what's the weapon and style that rewards you the most for timing things right?

>>169799727
Silverwind already has crit boost. Weakness exploit (you'll still need at least one weapon slot assuming a perfect WE tali, though a three-slot weapon can free you to have fewer slots or less WE on the tali, as little as tenderizer+5 O-- or tenderizer+2 OOO) or repeat offender (talis can only go to +3, so even a perfect chain crit tali will require a 3-slot weapon) would be the preferred skills. Getting additional skills onto deviant sets kinda sucks.

>>169800180
yeah I have no open slots at all. Im almost done crafting Baraq Sedition so I have 2 slots on my weapon.

Seregios Dissenter has a 3% body carve chance. fugg how many hyper seregios do I have to farm for this?

>>169800348
0
farm normal ones

>>169800348
Fun fact, two slot weapon does not allow you to drop to 2 slots on your tenderizer+5 tali. That could only get you to 9, you need 10 to proc; the gem that gives you more than one point per slot is 3 slots for 4 points. In other words you need at least one or the other with 3 slots if you only have the weapon and tali to work with. Same goes for most decent skills.

>>169801250
armor skills are so complicated. fugg

>>169801857
It gets better. Cus of how charms work, it's basically impossible to get two normally "free" skills on a tali. You can get one of course- AUS or Bombardier for instance- but not in conjunction with another.

I guess the optimal tali would be something like tenderizer 5 attack 10 OOO, but that still requires at least a slot on the weapon to proc weakness exploit. On the other hand, if you want to use a deviant weapon (meaning you ONLY have the tali to work with) you can settle for any skill with attack 10 OOO and socket in 5 more attack for AUM.

Of course there's one sort of saving grace. You can get up to 3 points in a deviant skill in the second slot, potentially allowing you to remove one or two pieces of deviant armour and replace them with regular armour. Thing is, you also lose the side skills this way, so the armour you replace them with has to be able to provide those skills or you lose them- potentially nullifying the usefulness of swapping the pieces out in the first place by using up their slots.

>>169802428
there are talisman with 10 attack and 3 sockets? oh damn I need to farm more

>>169800180
go for mushromancer

>>169802827
Yeah, that much attack is always in the second slot though meaning you cannot have it alongside other skills that can be activated with a tali and no gems needed, or alongside a deviant skill.

>>169803078
So among all of my shit talismans I think the best one is evasion +5 and 3 sockets.
with my 2 weapon sockets I can reach evasion +10 right?

You can swap evade extender with WE using torso up helm, lodestar arm, and tenderizer+3 silverwind+3 OOO talisman.

>>169812357
but I really like evade extender...

>>169812446
Good news! You can keep it if the talisman two more tenderizer points!

Greatsword is the canon weapon and the way the game is meant to be played.

>>169812723

>>169812723
this is too confusing to me. I will just stick to my shit talisman with evasion. is evasion actually a useful skill?

>>169812852
It's good. But why would you use evasion talisman if you're using silverwind? The set itself already has evasion+2. It'd be better to use sharpness talisman instead, though you'd need slotted weapons to get the skill.

Just use Athena Armor set search or this site to figure out which armors/talisman you need to farm to get your desired skills.

How'd you know?

>>169812852
Know that you could have any torso piece in the game at your disposal since you can swap out the SWind Helm for the Cap and still get 10 points in Silverwind Soul. The ASS should give you plenty such results. It's no issue that the cap gives less def because that'd be balanced out by the chestpiece being from an armor that doesn't have paper defense.

>>169813380
when Im using Baraq Sedition I have 2 slots so I could gem it. I dont have many good talismans yet so I just dont know what to do.
using sharpness with the Baraq Sedition Axe doesnt really make sense either, right?

>>169813856
now i dont know a thing about programming but the joke here is that program is fucking retarded right

>>169811652
Oh, forgot about Tigerstripe ZimZam.

>>169814516
Yes

>>169814436
Not really. It's really good at keeping sharpness level. If you play it right you won't need to sharpen ever again.

>>169813856
Couldn't you just modulo divide the number by 2 and check the remainder
Why would you do all that shit

>>169814516
Yeah, the joke in those series of pictures is that the code always does things in a completely inefficient/roundabout way, (in this case the code manually checks for even numbers individually instead of just checking if the input is dividable by 2) and that they usually picture codes you usually see in real life programming students.
It adds to the whole "just learn programming yourself, don't get a programming degree" idea and how CompSci degree is a meme. I think it started in /g/ but I'm not sure.

>>169814823
after a few runs of testing it, I really like it. Its fun to sharpen it mid fight and it looks much better than the hellblade axe imo.
but I still dont know what to gem into it. I could do what >>169813872 said, but it also seems too much of a hassle for a noob like me

How are people getting charms with like attack +13?

Am I just supposed to keep mining until I get lucky? Are they doing pot melding?

>>169816854
coal mining ad nauseum

>>169816854
Save editing. You might some day meet someone with a non-cheated Sharpness+5 Attack+13 OOO charm, but it's somewhere between getting hit by lightning and winning the lottery in likelyhood. And you wouldn't be able to tell the difference anyway.

>>169817069
So basically my att +7 is as best as it gets and I should just stop?

>>169817292
Should have never worked the miens in the first place, just save edit charms like a sane person. It's "immoral", yes, but it sure beats coal farming for hours at a time.

>that shell change

>>169817292
It takes a relatively inoffensive amount of tries to get a generously decent charm doing the Coal Hearted bug, as in a three-slotter with near-max points in a skill relevant to you. Anything more is an exercise in futility unless the starts and planets align, though, and definitely not worth the time in non-G Rank games, since the G version inevitably brings in even better and more desirable charms.

>>169817292
You could try your luck with Sakura Farming anyway to rake in shittons of cash, minerals, worn weapons and Yukumo points. Once you're swimming in millions, if you got a good charm, great, if not, at least you got everything else.

So I just received Tri Ultimate as a gift. I played regular Tri on the Wii, but it's been years and I've forgotten most of it. What am I in for, and is there anything I should or shouldn't do starting out?

Any general advice is fine.

>>169827129
Look up charm tables and prepare a stopwatch.

>>169827129
look up how to lock yourself into a good charm table

>>169810284
Might be easier than regular Shogun, at least outside of rage. Poor tracking and obvious startup on that forward chop combo allows much better openings than the ever annoying sideswipe and power walk.

>>169827184
>>169827221
All these years and people still pretend it matters for the average player.
What other disinfo will be dropped, constant 60fps on the 3DS or input delay on the WiiU?

>>169827574
It's not disinfo, this is actually true. And it matters because some tables don't have rustshards, regardless of your charm preference.

>>169827574
>potentially lock yourself into a cursed table with 800 charms, none of which are good vs normal table with 20k+ charms, some with god tier charms

>>169827807

I feel like DB really aren't that good in LR or first half of HR in 4U. They tend to not have very good sharpness which is really annoying even with the Fast Sharpener skill. Should I just stick with LS until I get to the point where they have respectable green or green+blue?

>>169842580
it doesn't mean a difference it just means basically this
HR8 is what you are set to which is the end of high rank
HR9 is G1, HR10 is G2, HR11 is G3, HR12 is interesting because it might imply a G4 which would be a first, HR13+ is unlocked which includes Elders ect. the G rank Amatsu quest requires HR13.
Or maybe G4 is simply just like HR51+ in Tri where it is nothing but marathon quests + 5 different jho hunts for some idiotic reason

>>169842992
Wouldn't HR8 be G1 then if you hit HR8 after Nakarkos?

>>169844609
Story quests are HR. You can blaze through them in 5 hours tops.

>>169844609
Valfalk may be the G10/G11 urgent, like how Narga, Brachydios and Seregios were in past G games.
The airship and Valfalk are going to be village HR. G-rank's plot snippets have to do with the online final boss invariably.
The only variance in this is Devil Diablos might be on either category. It might plausibly be in G-rank since that's getting more tiers than usual to be dealing with just the end-boss.

>>169844609
he's going to be the urgent for HR9-10. It's pretty much formulated that specific rank is a fight against the flagship

>>169844910
Ouma Diablos is also a story boss

>>169844997
for the gathering hall story. It is also getting it's own system which will be revealed in the next Famitsu. Since the way HR is working I wouldn't be surprised if the Mantis is fought as the HR12 boss while Diablos with access to Steam form is to unlock HR

No. There's no such thing as G exclusive rage mode for specific monsters. As in all past games, G rank is a separate entity from story mode.

I've decided to stop playing Gen now because I want to try out the new stuff but language barrier will probably suck hard and I remember hearing a lot of annoying stuff when X was out and getting translation patches.

>>169847010
I don't think "people that played monster hunter before Gen and enjoyed it for what it was" is quite the same as "hipsters." You might SORT OF have a point regarding people that started with gen but went back and decided gen was shit, except given that gen actually is kind of shit and monster hunter is a great series overall that's unlikely to be an opinion predicated on popularity rather than one's subjective experience. Especially since 4U was hugely popular and the same people mostly love it.

>>169846994
I played most psp monhun games in japanese, it's easy to get by if you're familiar with the series and ask here or on forums what items you need for x armor/weapon, you shouldn't even need to ask these days since there's a pretty good google translate app for mobile, just take a photo and let the app do the rest.

The balance changes have me more worried than any of the actual content.
Not touching striker lance and SA but nerfing half the adept styles into the ground? Really?
That on top of Brave being only good on one weapon and no nerfs to absolute evasions make me think the game is going to get really fucking stale really fucking fast.

>>169847365
"Kind of shit" is dramatic understatement with regards to Generations, and actually means "pretty fucking awful," though, whereas "kind of shit" means "it has a few flaws but is still a good game overall" with regards to most of the series (granted that the titles before FU have aged badly and the first game was never good).

>>169847507
>Brave being only good on one weapon
? Why is it good on only one weapon and why are the other weapons that get greatly expanded possibilites not considered good in this style (as in, not counting shit that gets like one new addition like SnS or Lance)?

>>169847507
>Brave being only good on one weapon
What memelord told you this? LS, GL, HBG and Bow all have godtier brave styles, and GS, DB, CB, Lance and SnS all have brave styles that are good and fun to use.

>>169847509
3U was pretty fucking awful, and 4U could've been good but was ruined by laughably bad balancing and weirdly gimped craftable weapon selections in order to promote relics.
FU was amazing for its time and many of its flaws are exaggerated these days (mainly hitboxes and balance), but it's hard to go back to these days.

>>169847087
It's still pretty much alive

>>169847692
>3U was pretty fucking awful
Opinion discarded tee bee aich.

>>169847640
>>169847686
Bow is the only good brave style, the others have too much downtime (LS, CB, DB), lose too much outside of brave (GS, Hammer, DB), or are just straight up inferior to guild/striker even in brave mode (HH, CB, DB). GL is arguable, after the adept nerf it's the best GL style, but we're still talking about GL here.

Also, I WISH Brave DB was good. The moveset is fun as hell. The 20% weaker spin2win, however, not so much.

>not counting shit that gets like one new addition like SnS or Lance
Both of those additions completely change how the weapon plays and can be used in a large variety of ways. Take away the triple third thrust on lance and brave is basically the lance I've always wanted.

>>169847961
>the others have too much downtime (LS, CB, DB), lose too much outside of brave (GS, Hammer, DB)
You're wrong on the first count and that makes the second basically irrelevant. Bow and GS get into bravemode the easiest but almost all weapons can do it in about the time it takes an IG to get triple buffed generally and the remainder only take about twice as long as that. A lot faster than LS can get to red flashing gauge except with a really good start with adept style (which only takes about as long) even then.

>GL is arguable
These are of course
>low rank monsters
but one is also a monsters with really good raw hitzones, and brave bow and brave GL are taking the best times across the board. Brave GL seems to be genuinely solid if not fantastic (since it's bound to be weaker in g rank because of shelling damage falling off as it always does, unless along with 5 g ranks they intend to give GL 5 additional shelling levels and actually make it a buff instead of a nerf like the heat gauge).

>>169848248
It'd be a good idea for a spin off. Maybe do it MGSV style where you have a big connected map and quests take place on part of it and you can get dropped off near it.

3U was the start of this awful trend of every monster shuffling all over the place with every animation and spending half the fight running away from you.

>>169848930
Water was only close to half the game if you like, only played village low rank. It also wasn't a bad gimmick, the problems with it were that it basically required a wii u or cpp because of the camera and that half the weapons were nerfed really badly underwater while the game was balanced around the ones that weren't nerfed too badly like the gunner weaps or were actually buffed while underwater like lance and gunlance.

>>169849396
There always is, but also there's a larger sample size, more people seriously optimising times and more monsters to test against (plus higher-ranked monsters) a few months after release than there are in a 3 monster demo with no element on weapons that make better use of it than raw like DB and GL shell scaling not yet dropped off.

A downed monster is easier to hit which brings faster killtimes.

What do you have against mounting?

>>169849562
i love G rank, 4u is my favorite. but G rank isn't worth having a shitty gimmick like water.
plus, P3rd's difficulty makes it the best game for learning the series.

i started with 3u. i'm a third gen baby. i almost quit the series because of water and the WAY too long tutorial in 3u.

That complaint at least is valid. You're literally gay if water almost made you quit though. Scientists have proven there is a 100% positive correlation between being literally gay and almost quitting Monster Hunter because of water. It is irrefutable fact.

Did they change brach for mh4u? He keeps kicking my ass, I don't remember him being this hard

>>169849771
>long tutorial
I can understand
>water
not even that hard to get used to if you aren't a shitter, but judging by the way you love p3rd and it's piss easy difficulty you probably are a shitter

>>169849984
He's faster but doesn't hit as hard I think.

Is congalala getting a deviant that is literally the MHO conga sub?

i almost quit the series because i didn't enjoy water and 3u gave me the false impression that water was going to be a thing in all monster hunters.

regardless of my opinion, water alienates several weapons and provides no meaningful change in gameplay outside of that.
it has no reason to exist. it is the definition of garbage.

Shitty lighting

>>169849679
Well for one it interrupts the flow of the fight while you're mounting it.
For another it trivializes a lot of mechanics, basically for free. If you wanted to cheese zinogre's supercharged state before, you had to bring pitfalls and nets. Now you can just do it.
For another, the speed at which you can raise the bar might as well be fixed with how little you can influence it by mashing, and unless you have the reflexes of a grandpa their attempts to fight you off don't matter, which makes the mechanic a meaningless waste of time. The mount will either be possible to win or impossible depending on your armor skills and RNG, so it might as well just be a percentage chance to get the long knockdown when you do a jump attack, since the only difference would be less time wasted.
And to top it off, a lot of people basically only fight normally if jumping attacks aren't an option at the moment, and only use BnB combos when the monster is downed and it's perfectly safe, which is a pretty stale way to fight.

Oh, wow. Reminds me of the lighting in that one area of ancestral steppe, where everything turns blue if you face one way and red if you face the other.
