Lovely Senorita posted:what's the time between grabbig your first palico and grabbing your first free gather quests? if there's one thing to do off the bat, it's to get the most tedious of the gathering out of the way Zero. You can start the game and immediately recruit a palico. Gathering quests are available from the start in the guild hall as well.

Mortimer posted:http://gatheringhallstudios.com/2016/07/mhgen-database-v1-0-for-android-is-now-released/ I can't recommend this enough, I used their apps for MH3U and MH4U (they used to publish as "daviancorp") and it changed my Monhun life. You can look up weaknesses and drop rates, key quests, plan your hunts by comparing weapon upgrade paths and the drops you need, build weapon and armor wishlists, even see what nodes in which zones to farm for certain mats. It's way easier to browse on your phone than any of the sites and of course it's a great option for plane/subway/etc travel. I probably sound like a shill but you really should download this.

I didn't get a chance to try it last night at all.

Bananasaurus Rex posted:Far as I can tell, the odds are near identical when it's 9% for carving compared to 10% for capping. 10% and above carving wins out. But by then the item isn't really considered "rare" anymore. This is a good and useful post.

Bummey posted:You kill the monster, sure, but you're just a working class hunter with a contract, which the bourgeois guild facilitates, prepares the base camp and provides token supplies, goes to admittedly great risk to save you from death when you get knocked out, etc. so of course they're going to claim the corpses, process them, and give you your pittance as wage. Yeah, I thought this was canon from a couple lines or some artbook or something. The guild takes the majority of the monster, but you get first pick of parts. Naturally, you can carve them off yourself (the parts you get are the best non-destroyed parts), or if the monster was captured, the more refined dissection allows you to more easily get rarer parts.

Banking on the nostalgia of the lovely-rear end dromes and their cloned armor sets is more marketable tham bringing back the actually neat -aggis. The sooner you accept this, the sooner the healing can begin.

I can't believe I'm so hyped for this, I already played 500 hours of MHX and this is just the same poo poo except in my native language, but still I'm chomping at the bit. If you're looking for previews of all the weapons/styles/monsters, RisingFunGaming is doing a playthrough of MHX where he's using every weapon/style combo (eventually) and showing off the various forms of the large monsters in the game. Check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2GOE6mLyog He streams the game a lot too and is generally pretty knowledgable about it so I recommend his channel if you want to see some half-decent play and get some good tips and tricks for MHGen.

I used these on my old 3DS XL, and have been using them for my N3dsXL ever since they came out. They are amazing. I my hands went from cramping constantly to being able to play as long as I want. The only issue I've had recently is right around the hinge where the top and bottom pieces of silicone meet, they like to not fit right. This may be a product of my 4 yo playing Kirby a lot lately and his general misuse of the system. (I don't let him use it any more, he has his own now) Even that little hangup was easily solved, I only use the bottom silicone piece. 10/10 would buy again forever.

Did they seriously take out the Great Jaggi clones and keep the Dromes Sure, lets take out the better looking, better animated, better designed, and much more fun to fight monsters in favor of these awful monsters from Gen 1. God dammit, Capcom

C-Euro posted:Dammit I got nothin to do tonight but I'm busy tomorrow evening You should never get close to losing all your stamina while charging. Like it might happen once and a while, but it's not worth getting a skill for it. Hammer skills kind of sucked in 4U. KO King was worthless in 4U as it didn't stack with the kitchen KO skill. Don't know if that was fixed for Gen. Maybe someone can chime in on that. Stamina Thief is nice I guess, but I'd rather go for offensive skills. Weakness exploit can be useful, since you should always be hitting the head, assuming the head is a weak point. And that skill was buffed back to its original state in this game. Other than that, just offensive skills. I would say evade or earplugs as well, but you can just use Adept style.

voltcatfish posted:I had to stop using the IG in 4U because it was far too good of a weapon. According to Gaijin Hunter it got a 15% or so motion value reduction across the board, which is pretty substantial. Considering that it's still a very good weapon, yeah, it was definitely overtuned in 4U.

You'd probably have to buy a second (European) DS and make a European account and bind it to that to be able to buy from it.
