Centzon Totochtin posted:Radial menu also makes ammo crafting (well all crafting but you probably end up crafting ammo the most often) much easier Being able to craft and use max potions and life powders with a single option each was a huge improvement too. Watching videos of older games where people open up the menu to craft items mid-combat drives me bonkers.

anyone getting some good use out of the action bar™? I'm wondering because I kinda just... disabled it early and have never felt a need for it  I am addicted to having camera controls on the d-pad because I like being able to look around while carving and gathering and I know it's mostly pointless in this game since gathering is just one press but I am so used to it. I put dog summon on the radial menu and I use the radial menu for sharpening, dog and mega potions.

Inzombiac posted:Man, as a hammer player I was having a rough time with that 4* electric lizard. Killed it but it sucked. I use hammer but having come from World, I killed Tobi really fast. The biggest reason your kill time probably went way down is because Dual Blades mean you don't need to exclusively aim for the head and can just sort of go to town on tails/underbellies, which mean you're attacking way more often. Once you fight the monsters more, you'll be able to spend way less time chasing openings because you'll know exactly where their head will be after each attack so you can cut out the downtime that doesn't crop us nearly as much for things like DB or SA.

Centzon Totochtin posted:Radial menu also makes ammo crafting (well all crafting but you probably end up crafting ammo the most often) much easier Gunning is when I started using the radial menu and forget ever going back to menu crafting. Once I got into it for that I started using it for crafting max pots... and then it snowballed from there to the point where I virtually never use the oldschool item menu. It just gets used for context-sensitive items (energy drinks, deodorants, etc) and trapping. The one thing I wish is they'd get rid of the multiple shortcuts, enlarge the radial, and give you more slots. I've never swapped radials and tend to save a radial config for each type of build, so having the middle of the screen eaten by useless alternate radials instead of 4-6 more quick options sucks.

Mailer posted:Guard Dash not so much, since it feels (this could just be me misremembering) like it covers way less ground, but yeah I charge when they bail and that's usually when I eat poo poo to an aoe/projectile. The range is just slightly too far to get there before he winds up another attack. Somnacanth I just kind of brute forced my way through it but being able to zip straight to the monster to keep attacking would be greatly helpful in like 75% of the fights so far. Guard Dash can be chained into either a hop or (more commonly) a Leaping Thrust, either of which will move you forward some more, so it covers nicely that space between "hop to keep close" and "Dash Attack to chase." You are blocking during the GD, so it's a very safe move. And the LT, while it drops your guard, is a fairly short animation, and its recovery can be chained into another GD, so the window in which you're vulnerable is shorter than you'd think. On the whole it's not as fast to cover ground as a Dash Attack, but it's much safer. GD/LT chaining is roughly comparable to another class repeatedly rolling, except you're guarding during the GD part of it, so it's way more safe; you can GD straight into an attacking monster, whereas another class would need to take a safer path toward the monster. For me, frequent use of GD to position around a monster/close short distances is a huge part of what makes Lance click for me. I don't have my Switch set up for any sort of long recording, but next time I play, I'll see if I can save a clip of me using GD/LT against a monster that likes to dart around.

Whats a good way to grind money? HR crafting takes quite a bit and running group quests seems to split the zenny rewards. Do I just speedrun 6/7* village?

Every single time I try to start really learning a new weapon, the same thing happens. “Hmmm, that one looks cool. I just need to farm X monster a few times. Better take hammer to do that as quick as I can!” “Oops I spent all the parts on a new hammer.” I think I have a problem. The problem being I will eventually run out of hammers to make.

mightygerm posted:This is not how it works in Rise. Wide is now the charge shelling build as it gets 2 levels of charged with the most damage. It also has KO damage with the stake, with slugger levels you can KO monsters VERY easily. This also means you don't want to use blast dash with wide and prioritize the 2 step fast WS combo. So if I'm understanding, normal and long should be using their shells on the slam burst, and not doing regular shelling? Or do you regular shell between pokes too?

DeathSandwich posted:Finished Village last night, started HR in the hub in earnest (I got HR Hub when I was HR 3 in Village - Wound up getting the Rarity 4 Kamura Horn - wound up tearing the rest of the Village story apart like wet bread). I ran through all the switch Skill missions available to me got my upgraded Tetranadon Horn for more doot doots and I'm looking at expanding into some other weapons now. It kinda blows. I was trying out the kadachi pierce build from vanilla world for while, then I switched to LBG, Narga pierce 1/2 with wroggi S set, and I wreck poo poo. mightygerm posted:Whats a good way to grind money? HR crafting takes quite a bit and running group quests seems to split the zenny rewards. Do I just speedrun 6/7* village? Hunt literally anything and sell all the mats. It's counter intuitive, I know, but I have to remind myself to do this every MH game. Also, check the trader for the 500pts 10k sell items.

I think it's because I'm just tired today and this series requires energy and thought but I still just can't decide on a weapon to start with. Sword & Shield, Dual Blades, & Bow are all contenders. I quite enjoyed Hammer in the small bit of World I actually played. And in a surprise new contender they managed to remove enough clunk from Hunting Horn to make it interesting to me too.

My problem is specifically "Imma jump 80 feet away k bye" moves. I don't remember that happening as much in previous games, but that could be selective memory. Once they're relatively nearby it's stabby time. Mag is like a combination of Zin and Nerd, but the constant hopping around the entire arena blows me up in a way that actually using the kunai would alleviate. Also fighting him literally once, so burning a ton of stamina on powerguards for attacks that were hyperdelayed, etc.

lets hang out posted:should've taken the hub quest to hunt kestodons, that's what it's in the game for. marks them on the map and spawns a lot more than usual That's good to know! I'm not doing hub right now, still working on village, and skipping non essentials. Your Computer posted:anyone getting some good use out of the action bar™? I put my dogo on the first button, that way mounting is a quick L + B. And in village I put the job board on first slot so that is a quick L+B access..Other than that it's dead to me. Incase it doesn't make sense, I have item bar set to dpad cause I don't like the L+ interaction. And as I love stating, the dpad left and right mapped to back buttons on a power a pro controller.

MP question, If I play "online" in my groups hunter connect and no one is on, the monsters in hub won't be upgraded right? Atleast not until someone joins? Wondering if I can just play in my HC/online and my friends can hot join me if they see me on?

Do you need to use the respective weapon when doing a switch skill quest? Also, I only have quests for a few of the weapons; when do I get the rest? In any case, holy poo poo was it hilarious clowning on Tetranodon with four horns  ing the whole time
