How does blacklisting work, anyway? Does it you invisible to them and vice versa?
What happens if you've blacklist someone, but you're not the host of the hub?
How do you know if you've even been blacklisted?

>>176172487

>Does it you invisible to them and vice versa?
Yes
They cannot see or join hubs that you are in. It works both ways.

If one person in the hub blocks them then that person cannot join at all.

>>176172487
Just keep a list of the people you hate and kick them every time they enter one of your rooms, not sure if you can block people.

Reminder that monhun is the call of duty of Japan. You people are on the same normalfag casual level as broshooter players.

I doubt that because what happens if you're cool with 2 out of the 3 people in that hub. Are you saying that because of that 1 blacklister you can't play with the other guys?

That's too much power for 1 person to have

Look at it this way, you'd have to fuck up tremendously to warrant getting on the shitlist. If someone blacklists you for petty reasons then there's a chance they weren't worth hunting with anyway.

>>176173310

>Bubble dance

Is that like a g-rank skill because the only thing with "bubble" in the name is something that says gives you bubbles when you dodge.

>>176174465
I play most everyday.
If there isn't a /mhg/ room I either make one or go play with the japs in a turn room for a while.

>>176175096
That's a secondary effect of the skill, you're immune to the slipping but can keep the E+1 effect up all the time.

>Every Monster Hunter game has offered more and more ways to customize your character, but even now, you still need to make that hard decision between armour that you like visually and armour that you like for its stats. Is there no way to allow a little more flexibility or balance between your looks and your stats?
>Kaname Fujioka: “Restrictions in freedom” is one of my game design philosophies. Game mechanics are less likely born if there is truly freedom. Through the restrictions that exist in freedom, I believe we are blessed by player’s thoughts and game mechanics. And more importantly, the number of choices you can make in this circumstance plays a big role. For example, I’m talking about the color swap choice of your armor sets and custom skills such as “Decorations” and “Charms”.
>Where there is a restriction of balancing your look of armor sets and stats, each player will have their own “taste” and thus facilitate communication through feelings such as “aspiration” and “pride.” I do not know yet how these elements will develop amongst players moving forward, but I’d like to keep my attention to these elements of communication.

>>176187947
I just realized how you don't have to sacrifice for anything in X. Skills vs fashion? No, just transmog. Is this enough of an opening to attack the monster? Doesn't matter, you can just adept/brave/absolute evade out of harm. It's like "you can do it all" is X's design philosophy.

>Capcom finds a way to put literally hundreds of armor designs to use
>Does it in a way that isn't mindless like a vanity slot

>Is entirely optional
>People STILL bitch about it

>>176187947
The only time sacrifice ever applied in MH was when making armor sets and sometimes when making weapons, this "sacrifice" didn't really matter since top players only cared about the best possible set and new players would just use a full set they like, you would almost never see a G Crown player using a bad set because he liked how it looks. You can also say there is a lot more decision making with transmog in the game, since now you have to decide if you want to spend the materials for a throwaway armor set and whether it's worth it or not to waste your horn coins and zenny, while at the same time deciding what skills and parts you need on the main set.

Speaking of XX, how do you that awesome looking evade while brave mode? That move that automatically unsheathes your weapon while dodging.

>The core design philosophy of Monster Hunter, Japan's national pastime, whose primary consumers are casual players that largely play on the commute to and from work, is [S A C R I F I C E]
My sides are in orbit

I've been thinking of making a Load up set with Kama Rebellion since Scylla Webdart isn't cutting it for these multi monster quests, those 70 power coatings run out in the middle of the second monster.
I'm thinking of making a set with WE, CB, Normal/Rapid Up, C+2, and Load Up. So essentially I'm trading Trueshot for Load up, and it gives me access to 60 extra lvl2 power coatings.
Is it a bad trade-off? My other option is the Deadeye bow which uses the Scylla Webdart set, but has lvl 1 power coatings instead.

>>176188378
>Is this enough of an opening to attack the monster? Doesn't matter, you can just adept/brave/absolute evade out of harm.
Not to mention they gives rise to lazy enemy attack design. Why put in the effort to design around the core gameplay when you can make every monster attack home onto you with no cooldown in-between since you can just press ZR/ZL to not die?

>>176188560

The HP loss from being attacked is fixed, I believe. Since you have to be unsheathed to utilize this, you can't do it when sheathed.

it's a mistake on the dex. if you make it, you can still only use 20

>>176189070
the dex is wrong

>>176188932
It is not.
You take more damage from stronger attacks in general.
That OHKO move that gets sent your way will noticeably take most of your health if you decide to brave it.

>>176189431
Well alright then

>>176189431
So does that mean that you should only brave for emergency exits?

>>176188948
Try using mad crit build.

>>176189634
In general you can and should brave all you want if it gives you openings.
Just be mindful of your health since any little chip makes all that red health go away.

Some attacks, like Super Azurebolt's head laser sword, you shouldn't brave because you will most likely die.

>>176189634
what

if it's a small hit, then brave evading is no loss. if it's a large hit, braving still lets you take less damage than if you ate the hit

the only times you shouldn't brave an unavoidable hit are for rapid consecutive attacks like deviant diablos's spin or charge into steam bomb, because then you'll eat two hits instead of one

Any tips to make hyper jho hunts not take forever in gen?

>>176189920
>>176189963
Ah,good to know how it works. I'll most likely main Brave LS anyway so getting hit is less of my worries.

>>176190056
Are you soloing? A decent team can take him out in less than 15 minutes. Try equipping Kirin DBs to make the hunt a cakewalk.

>>176190056
Don't use gunlance or hunting horn.

>>176190056
tremor res is mandatory

>>176189801
No good fullsuit options that don't look like shit. Probably going to fullsuit GX White Fatalis when the dlc comes or just fullsuit Nephillim like I want to. Escardora might do as well.

>>176190364
>How do I kill Hyper Jho?
By exploiting all the things that make Jho easy to kill.
His legs take a fair amount of cutting and impact damage, he takes a butt load of blast and poison damage, he has a huge weakspot on his belly for most of the fight, and he'll happily eat meats. Note: I'm not sure if Hyper Jho eats meat.

>>176190364
Stick to the legs,attack the body/tail when he is down,sharpen if you have opening,pop up Mega demondrug and demon seed,spam the spin2win in demon mode for regular attacking,use demon dance for good opening ,only heal if you're really in the verge of death.

>>176190486
>jho
>not element

>>176190486
Hypers don't get tired. So I'm assuming it doesn't eat meat.

>>176190418
That's the thing though, I'm sick of having the same exact skills every hunt using the same set. Transmogging doesn't fix anything for me, it breaks it.

>>176190486
hyper jho doesn't eat meat

>>176190562
play older games

>>176190364
if you're soloing, there's not much you can do but make sure to hit weakpoints. if it's easy enough, you can probably go striker and take readiness, wolf's maw, and blood wind.

>>176190562
>make a set with different skills
>transmog it if it looks like shit
gee whiz that sure was hard

>>176190548
Jho eats meat whenever he feels like it, exhausted or not.

>>176190530
http://mhgen.kiranico.com/monster/deviljho
Yes, that's right. Blast>Thunder because the back legs take 15 Thunder (10 outside of rage), and Blast leads to more trips.

The best MHX T/A times for Deviljho, both regular and hyper, are using Charred Slicers.

>>176190562
Then use different set for different transmog? Transmog A uses crit boost skills, transmog B uses mad crit skills, transmog C uses elemental skills. I don't see what's so difficult about it.

>>176190562
So make a set with different skills?

Like a trapper set with guru. Or a dedicated status set for Para weapons.

>>176190659
Also this.Assuming you are good at MOI, I think you can probably dash through his dragon breath just fine since I can roll on it with a good timing. Don't forget to gem in tremor res.

>>176193349
you haven't played frontier, abiorugu fights mostly like jho and never tries to deliberately position his tail to hit you.
he's a jho clone way more than anything else, probably because jho was so popular and frontier was still in it's "absolutely no mainline monsters" phase.

giaorugu, the subspecies, fights a lot more like glavenus (in part because of the extended tail in ice mode) and has more unique animations, but is still pretty similar to jho with a bit of uragaan sprinkled in.

giaorugu is better than both glavenus and abio in mechanical and visual design, honestly.

Friend, there's no need to bully!
I knew that Hyper Jho never got exhausted, but I wasn't sure of the exact mechanic that caused Jho to eat food. He eats it at random times, I've had him eat food twice in 15 seconds before.

>>176197840
Well, first things first: stay calm. Kut-ku's a tutorial monster, and he takes a TON of damage to his head and wings.

You can beat him in beginner gear without much issue.

Unfortunately, the best advice I can give you is to pull up your socks and git gud. Outside of that, Velocidrome equipment will help you kill him by virtue of its Attack Up armour skill and decent defense, but it also has negative fire resistance so Kut-ku's fireballs will hurt.
Make sure your weapons are upgraded as far as they can go, and always, ALWAYS maintain green sharpness.

Trying to solo a Dreadking with HH is just absolutely ridiculous without flashbombs

Literally no consistent openings for head, especially with the 90 degree fireball

If someone shows me a sub 15 video on Dreadking I, with an Obsidian Horn with 160 attack, and full HR Rath, no traps or Barrel Bombs, I will send you 20 bucks through Paypal and never touch Hunting Horn again

>>176198436
Cats in MHGen are fairly strong if they're kitted out properly. If you're not using a weapon type that benefits from predictable monster movements, e.g. Hammer, HH, GS, then you'll want to bring cats.

>>176200647

>always maintain green sharpness

I guess I gotta farm earth stones to upgrade my bone SnS until I get green sharpness then

>>176200723
>Bone SnS
Avoid SnS until you can get an element on it.
Also, as a rule of thumb the Iron line will have better sharpness than the Bone line.

Getting to green sharpness is your number one priority, so it's probably best to do some mining until you've got a decent Iron weapon.

I can't remember just how early the encounter is, but yes it's completely feasible.

The one in the arena quest is considerably tougher and designed around two players.

I like having my cats on bomb duty if I'm gunning.

Either that or buffing me with inf stamina if I'm using bows

What's considered a "perfect" palico in 4U?
I'm pretty new to the series (halfway through high rank in 4u) and after looking around a bit it seems the best ones for solo hunts all have a variation of 9 lives and speedy recovery.
Am I missing something here or is that literally all I need to look for and do the skills even matter further down the line?
Meownster hunter skills and fishing machine stuff is pretty straightforward, but I still can't wrap my head around what makes a good skill combo for hunts.

Paria Puria loves meat but is also fickle about their taste. One can tell its preference by looking at the color of its drool. For each meat it eats, its drool will change color. Status meat has no effect but its necessary for feeding it.

When you feed it enough, it'll become bloated and will attempt to escape to digest safely. This makes them easy to attack but if you aggravate them enough, it'll vomit back at you. Its vomit can be gathered for various materials, including its gastric acid.

someone explain the load up skill for charge blade

does it just add more phials?

>>176204554
Yellow charge gives 5 Phials. Red gives even more if you use the Phial increase HA.

>>176204665
so basically its shit?

>>176204554
In 4U, I think it gave one extra phial, which at the time was useful for Elemental Phial CBs. In Gen, it grants more phials per charge level.
