How the fuck do I get better with LS? What the hell is that little meter under my health now? How do the combos work? Got carted for the first time on Barroth using this piece of shit

I curb stomped him right before this using my Vulcanis. Should I go back to just using GS? Should I try a new weapon out? What do y'all think?

Scratch that, 3DS is dying.

So what exactly is the role of a switch axe? What do you aim for?
I'm playing P3rd and switching between hammer and SA, and while I can really easily figure out what to do with the hammer (and as a result when I'm doing well or not), with switch axe I just feel like I should just be attacking the monster non stop and be in sword mode for as long as possible without having to reload.

Charge Blade is what switchaxe was supposed to be.

Lots of little mechanics and options that let you deliver lots of damage combinations and also having the versatility of movement.

But SwitchAxe ended up being" >Buff yourself with everything. Get into sword mode and spam X

Its even more braindead with hunter arts because you dont even need axe. Ode to reload. Just reload with the hunter art

I'm trying to play a bit with Dreadqueen's set on MHX and I need someone with more experience than me here

Consider the Dreadqueen set + Deathprize as the weapon, replacing the headgear with Sword Saint Earrings for automatic Mind's Eye

Then, considering a perfect Blunt +6 Dreadqueen +2 OOO talisman, it would fill up Dreadqueen for the headgear, while Blunt would reach +10 with the help of a few jewels (A Blunt Jwl 2 for +3 Blunt in Deathprize and a Blunt Jwl 1 for +1 in the talisman)

The main problem here is that, without the headgear, Crit Status only reaches +8 and Critical Eye only reaches +12. Crit Eye can go to +15 with an Expert Jwl 2 on the talisman, but that still leaves Crit Status out there

What should I do? Focus the talisman on supplying what the headgear lacks and throw away the Blunt idea? What other combination of talisman and jewels could be used here?

>>180448704

I'm guessing the town is just going to be a port village to be honest. I'm hoping they go hard on the whole "new world" vibe and make our hunter home a big sailing frigate in a colonial harbor.

Plus they could just sell new expansion areas by having you sail to them.

>>180452496
Why can't monster hunter have a huge open world where you can freely hunt monsters without having to go on a quest? Tri's moga woods where you could free roam was the one thing I really liked about it. Just walk out the village and go gather stuff wild beating on random wildlife and monsters. It was comfy. No quest needed no time limit, just walk around doing stuff.

>>180452669
It wasn't open and had a spawn limit, MHW is nothing like it.

I don't know how damage works in this game

Comparing two Dual Blades, the Light Sword Cypher X (180 ATK, 0% Affinity) vs Garuga Gunsen (170 ATK, 24 Poison, 35% Affinity)

On normal hits ,the Cypher does more damage, but the Gunsen has 65% of crit if I have Critical Eye +20 vs only 30% of the Cypher, so in a weapon that hits a lot like the DB, the Gunsen has the edge here, right?

As for the poison damage, it's not added damage like regular elements, right? It's "as soon as it hits x damage, it'll poison the monster"? I'm not sure, this game is hard, please explain

Yes, it's a map of the Monster Hunter world.

>>180453226
Affinity is the chance to do +25% damage (or -25% in the case of negative affinity) on any given hit. Thus 35% affinity is just under a 9% damage boost.
Status is applied with a 1/3 chance on any hit and wears off slowly over time. Once enough status is applied, the effects of the status actually happen (damage for poison/blast, paralysis, etc). The amounts of damage and the amount of status that needs to be applied varies based on the monster.

So a 9% damage boost over the Cypher would put the Gunsen at 185ish ATK, but like >>180453387 said, the white on the Cypher more than makes up for it. Also, Poison without Crit Status doesn't seem that good

I guess I'll stick with the Cypher

>How the fuck do I get better with LS?
Practice. And don't use poison.
>What the hell is that little meter under my health now?
It's your spirit gauge. Not sure how Wii U controls work, but every time you use an X or A attack you'll build meter. The higher the meter is, the more moves you'll be able to use in your R combo. If you manage to pull off a full R combo and hit with the final attack, then your gauge will upgrade in colour. It goes from white, to yellow, to red. Each tier gives you a larger and larger damage boost to every attack.
>How do the combos work?
X,X,A,X,X,A,.... Is your standard infinite combo. Use this to build up your meter.
R,R,R,R, Is your spirit combo. Does a lot of damage and if you hit with the final attack it'll upgrade your colour. Each hit consumes your meter though, so you'll need to have a lot in order to get the full combo.
Note that you can chain an X attack between the first two hits of the combo, (as in R,X,R,X,R,R) if you need extra meter, but this will of course make the combo take longer so you'll need an even larger opening to pull it off.
X+A will perform a fade slash, which will quickly attack then make you jump backwards, which is useful for dodging attacks. You can fit this anywhere in your standard combo.

You guys know of any fun LR armor sets for Generations? I don't really want to go around using BuJaBuJaBu. I'm a hammer guy, if that helps.

Yeah for games with more than 2 people on the fence whether they should buy or not.

>>180455429
Insect Glaive most likely. Never used it, but it's the flippiest weapon there is in the game. Of course GOTCHA BITCH Greatsword is good too.

The only shilling that happens on 4chan is some indiedev trying to get you to buy his shitty game. Big companies have absolutely nothing to gain from doing it in a thread like this with only 50 ips. Even on /v/ the largest threads only hit 100-200 ips, with the average being around 50 as well. That's nowhere near worth it when for the same amount of money you could advertise on Twitter or Youtube and reach literally tens of thousands of people. It's probably even less money spent per bot actually, since on Youtube and Twitter you only need to program a bot to click the like/retweet button rather than actually paying a human being to write posts on 4chan.

Every "obvious shill" you see on 4chan is just a troll getting a rise out of paranoid idiots like you.

Is it possible for a monster to not spawn ?

I've only played with him for like 6 hours total but he kind of gets on my nerves. Being a total newb is fine but acting like hot shit while sucking is just confusing. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt that he was maybe just raised poorly. Maybe I can guide him to not be a total shitter

often the bigger hits will be mitigated better by resistances

if you're newer to the game, eating for double element will prevent effects and prevent you from taking the more massive hits. It also doesn't require new armor

Match monster to element = more damage is a really boring system to me.

I'd prefer noticeable hunt changing effects that you would use because of the monster's behavior.

>>180459793
The funny is that it's not even HARD to come up with a good system here.

raw = all purpose
elemental = slightly better if used against a monster weak to that element

bam, it's that simple. On almost all monsters bringing the ideal weapon should mean you get a benefit. You go out of your way to craft some dumb thunder gs? You get rewarded for it by doing a bit better against a monster weak to thunder.
Why should one raw sword be best across all fights?

Give all the final weapons and designs that your colleagues put work into a purpose. Make people craft more weapons if they want slightly better results. Make people hunt more varied monsters. So many reasons.

done

>>180460328
literally all they'd have to do is make elemental damage apply on every hit and respect motion value
That's it! You probably wouldn't even have to adjust the stats.

>>180460328
It's even worse with bows
Every game is literally "craft this one bow, forget all the rest"

>>180460530
It's even easier, don't destroy a weapon's stats because it has Element.
Done.

>>180460234
If they had effects like sleep instead of damage that problem wouldn't exist in the first place though.

I'd rather have ice slow or maybe stop certain parts of a monster for a bit and maybe it has some neat uses instead of more damage. Just as a random example.

>>180460653
inb4 fire has a chance to deal extra damage and is always the top choice

>>180459287
I hope they add more relic weapon and armor skins for endgame grinding.

At the very least a really in-depth relic system means a lot more skins see use

>>180460828
>maybe weapons should have transmog as well
I wouldn't go that far. I liked trading/sharing guild quests between players to get the quests which give weapons/armor skins that you want.

>>180460591
It is pretty fucking dumb how few bows actually benefit from load up because it fucking changes the shot type and makes your Shot Up skill useless. It's such an easy fix.

im very interested to see how it could be layed out without looking like shit. with the leveling/upgrading system in gen youll have a base weapon with like five branches coming off of it, and each of those branches will have two or three branches

>>180460328
But then there's literally no reason to use raw past early game.

>>180461567
Maybe a basic spreadsheet? Or images saved with the snipping tool and ported to a spreadsheet? One page for each tree, maybe.

>>180461621
Raw would be best against a few monsters at best, and "all around good" against others.

I'm not talking huge differences anyway, you could always just make your raw gs and be done with it. But if you wanted to shave off that extra bit of time on your hunts you'd be rewarded for going out of your way to make some fire/lightning/etc. gs as well.

Right now, raw is simply too good and there's no reason to use or care for anything else. Because the balance is shit.

my favorite part of this comic is the lack of self awareness showing the two butthurt bing wahoo fags getting mad despite not buying anything

if that was on purpose it's brilliant

so hot drink / cold drinks have been removed

now a hot area will slow your stamina regeneration/health regeneration speed by 30%
your health depletes slower than before without cool drink, you cannot die from this damage

cold areas slow your movement speed slightly and increases your stamina gauge decrease time. cold areas increase your stun gauge increase 25%

separating which monsters work toward which type of weapon was a bad idea

The question was if Attack Up was better than Critical Eye in that situation

not sure i understand the question, but yes, in an armor set where you have no critboost, 15points invested into attack will give you a better return than 15points invested into expert

this is true in gen which ends at highrank with weapons averaging around 200raw. in a g rank game where its not uncommon to see raw averaging around 300, expert becomes better

one more point of interest in gen is how easy it is to fit expert into a mix set because of the feather. just because 15 points might be more effecient in attack, its usually easier to get expert, which is still better than nothing, and easier to make combinations of skills with
