Trying out Longsword but the only available switch skills are Soaring Kick and Silkbind Sakura Slash? I can only find that switch skills are unlocked as you rank up but I'm HR7.

I believe you also unlock some by crafting X number of that type of weapon (upgrades count toward this).

Thanks, I think it's 8. I just crafted a few more and Utsushi got a yellow bubble. Third one I have to do the quest for but I got the Draw and ZL+X.

Phone posting so I can't look it up, but it's whatever decent LR armor I was running with a couple of pieces maxed so ~200 defense.

theres no such thing as "decent" LR armor when youre in HR. Dumpster that garbage ASAP and build whatever HR set you can afford and be sure to upgrade it as well. This will give you a MASSIVE defense boost and will stop uragaan from one-shotting you

edit* if youre still having a hard time, building the defender armor and weapons will give you a huge leg up. Do note that the defender stuff was added after Iceborne was released and its purpose was to make HR much easier so newer players could blitz HR and get to master rank. Its kinda like cheating so if you want to get the most out of HR, keep that in mind

Insect glaive continues to own bones. Kinsect canceling is wildly powerful, I can do SO much damage nonstop. Being able to use a blunt kinsect is also super handy.. now I can stun and sever all in one.

Blunt was really strong in Iceborne with the seldom-discussed kinsect boost that let you rapid-fire pound your bug in a monster's face for a couple seconds for a knockdown

the bow damage calculations are busted because they end up doing more elemental damage than they should be doing and you can animation cancel out of rapid shots

No, I’m pretty sure Bow has always worked that way. You don’t add the bonus from each level, you only get the one you’re at. So that Rapid 4 0.7 multiples shouldn’t be applying, and was never meant to.

I’m stealing this immediately.

I built a weakness exploit crit build for Swaxe and while the damage is higher, I can’t stop using my KO/exhaust build. Slowing the monsters down makes such a huge difference in fights when I can just rapid morph in their face all day long

Also is there a goon discord for Rise? Ive been playing with a group since GU but but there’s been a lot of turnover so I’m looking for a fresh start and I’ve never games with goons before!

I didn't know this was a mechanic.

Apparently, yellow sharpness is pretty dire. So much for the egg hammer.


Edit: Seriously, the egg wiggles independently when you charge that hammer up. Without the Pukei-Pukei feather duster, that was the next best thing. Looks like I'm switching to Nargacuga like everyone else.

Rathian Gunlance is a solid pick for shotgun slams, Cornpopper is great for charged shelling.
