I had to google how to do the wyvern egg quest and saw a lot of guides saying "Oh its in zone 16, you want to find something in zone 17 first" and was really confused because I completely missed a big chunk of the map while trying to fully explore it. This game rules

also the shield bash makes such a good punching sound

the shield bash is cool. it does stun damage so it's good to use on a monsters head after you knock it down by mounting you can quickly rack up stun damage and mayabe have it dazed when it gets up. its not as good as the hammer/horn or gs for that sort of thing but when it works its cool :cool:

another cool thing to do with the sns is that you can use items and the slinger while shielding. this means you can put down BOMBS when you are SHIELDING in between sword combos.

also they added a new move that's any direction + triangle, that reorients your direction and resets your combo. this means you can COMBO INFINITELY by going like triangle x 3 circle x 3 direction + triangle for combo reset or whatever.

What is everyone using for weapons? I thought I was going to main horn this time, but wound up really enjoying the charge blade. Having the practice room with all the combos is clutch.

dual blades. doing the full demon mode midair cartwheel over a monster is so satisfying

greatsword/long sword/bow so far mostly. bow in particular is pretty cool now, i like it a lot more than in generations. i messed with dual blades/lance a little too and liked them

The charge blade is fun but I think I also want a higher mobility weapon.

I just started playing and I chose the katana as my first weapon. It's cool and I like the dodge slash but I might try something a little faster

I started with sword and shield because it’s the boring conventional choice for a boring conventional person like me, but I never actually block anything and just instinctively roll out of the way of attacks instead, making he shield redundant, so I might just switch to longsword or greatsword.

Yeah I'm just starting to get the hang of it. The best part of the charge blade is the real easy launch move for setting people up to mount or trolling people after the monster goes down.

even if you don’t ever use it to actually block you can use items/slinger while your shield is up, which is really nice

Standing still hit triangle or y when you're in ax shape. You do like an upward swing that'll launch dudes.

I’m still really early on (just killed the Pukei Pukei) but I love this game. I responded to an SOS flare and helped someone take down the Great Jagra and it was super fun to do co-op

its a honster hunter tradition to have really terrible "boss" one off stages. well, the magdaros stages aren't really one off they keep randomly popping up once you get to high rank as optional quests and his armor has really high fire def so i keep doing it :gonk:

I love this game but hate the Kirin.

Co-op is super fun and I haven't seen any lag on the PS4, even when playing with Americans or Asians. The cat armors are all incredible.

Some of my most amazing fights have been against odogaron. There is a spot in that area that gets a lot of traffic and any fight in that spot just spirals way the gently caress out off control. It's great.

A odogaron vs radabaan turf war is the sickest thing in the game.
