I just slap on poison/fire resist decos on the sets that have space for them when fighting Cham/Teo. Feel like the full sets need a bit more thought to use as counters? Also, there's always layered for dressing up. Does anyone know if there's a way to tie layered loadouts to normal gear loadouts? Or do you need to swap manually?

Layered Armor has its own loadout menu. Which I like a lot better than World tying it to your current real armor set, personally.

Happy Noodle Boy posted:I would like the option to tie layered to armor loadouts instead of having to manage both independently It works both ways in Rise, actually. If you've got layered armor on and register a loadout, then it remembers the layered armor (and color pigments) that you had on. You just also have a separate layered armor loadout menu just in case you want to make a bunch of outfits to switch between whenever you feel like it.

I'd like to have my IG set look one way, and my Horn set to look another, and my gunner set to look another. Involving a second swap isn't the end of the world, but it's bit of an extra hassle. e: Whoops, missed the post above. Will have to try that out.

Do people not know that World also has this Layered Armor menu or something? You can save a layered loadout whenever you're customizing layered armors, just like (and separate from) customizing a gear loadout. I had a bunch that I used to swap between.

Nah GU was transmog. You had to fuse your layered armor and actual equipment into a single piece. Was a pain if you wanted to used the same piece of transmog equipment in two different sets because you couldn't change the appearance between the two sets without making a 2nd piece.

i am not good at this game but i fought (village) goss harog yesterday afternoon and man he had a really bad time. so many shields to the face. i used a lot of healing items though. then i fought HR great izuchi and he also had a really bad time due to a surprising number of shields to the face. his little izuchi followers seemed to be immortal and were annoying. right before he died, i just kept getting pounced and it was frustrating, but then he died so it was ok. im pretty sure the reason i kept getting knocked down out of nowhere was all the little fuckers that were around him

Rise is the first monster hunter game I have played and I am absolutely hooked. At this point I've put about 160 hours into it. I've been thinking about dabbling in World on the pc but I would like to get it on sale. Unfortunately the base game isn't on steam sale but Iceborne is. I was thinking about picking up Iceborne now while its on sale and waiting for world to go on sale. My concern though is that I might not like World and investing in the xpac before trying the base game increases the entry point cost. Should I just pull the trigger on getting Iceborne on sale or just wait and get base world on sale to make sure I like it?

Yeah, I think they're saying they want to play it and Iceborne is on sale but base World is not. So is it silly to buy the xpac on sale then wait on World base to go on sale so they have both but pay sale price on both. To which I say, yes, that is silly. Just wait for base, buy base, play base, then make a decision re: Iceborne.

I'mma have to be the person on the other side saying if you like Monster Hunter Rise and the concept of the MonHun series, you will more than likely enjoy World and by extension Iceborne which is well worth the money investment. The Iceborne story final boss > World story final boss by a mile and for all that people complain about tenderizing the Clutch Claw added a bunch of cool moves to pretty much every weapon (a number of which got kept on to Rise because people liked them so much!) and tenderizing itself is in a fine place now with how long it lasts. Also wallbanging monsters is never not funny.

Batterypowered7 posted:Pretty sure you can overcharge your sword (phials glowing) and it attacks slightly faster, hits harder, and also adds phial damage to the sword, so good for KOs with Impact or just more elemental damage. This is from yesterday, but just in case you're interested. It's not that the sword attacks faster when charged, its that attacks that bounce have no hitstop. You see in the video when he's going nuts with the sword it's overcharged into glowing red. So every attack wants to bounce, thus no hitstop, but since the sword is charged they won't. It does make a pretty big difference in number of attacks you can get in a timeframe.

Don't get me wrong, if you love Rise I am sure you are going to love World/IB. I've just learned the hard way that I personally save more money paying full price for something when I want to play it right away vs buying things I expect to like in the future because it's cheap, even though I'm not interested in it right that moment.

Apex Mizutsune feels like the toughest monster right now judging by carts in pugs, which is cool and good. Though that may partly be because the mission's at night and it's difficult to see well with the colors involved and all the critting LBGs (please tone it down Capcom) - it was actually difficult to see the tells as a GL. LBG don't care about tells. LBG just don't care. But Apex Mizu has cool new moves and hits like a truck too. I didn't do the deviants in GU, so dunno if that moveset is from there. The Elders are cool and good too, love the new Kushala. They've added cool new attacks to compensate for being able to hit it in the first place. In general, this game has a lot of detail: the armors and weapon designs, the weapon reworks, the monsters themselves. Love it.

Honestly if there was an option to turn off allies hit effects and make their minions transparent in-combat I would use it because this game can be an absolute visual cacophony. FFXIV does it for spell effects and it can be a necessity.

Even restricting it to one crit effect per shot instead of showing individual crits for each pierce or spread tick works be nice. I know they're all rolling individually, but we don't need to know, Capcom.

also if you're jonesing for more monster hunter after trying out rise then MHGU is actually an option on the switch as well and frequently goes on sale for 20 bucks. it's absolutely a bit harder to get into, but rise is closer to MHGU than it is world in terms of overall structure and switch skills are actually kind of like a spiritual sequel to the hunter arts and styles in MHGU.

If you're enjoying Rise and want something very similar, you should absolutely pick up Toukiden 2 when it is on the rare KT sale. It has weapons that have some similarity with MH versions, but a lot that are entirely their own thing, the demon claw in it is all but a predecessor to wirebugs and it did an openish world before MH world did, and you also get AI companions that are reasonably competent if the multiplayer is dead (which I assume it is). Monster designs are also pretty much all based on oni and youkai. Sadly you'd now have just missed a sale that was a couple weeks back. I think it got marked down to ~$20.MinionOfCthulhu posted:Almudron is a right bastard. I don’t like you, filthdragon. I like almudron but if I would be lying if I said I ever had a fight with one that wasn't a complete mess of getting bonked by random attacks, chugging potions, and hitting the wrong parts. chumbler fucked around with this message at 21:05 on May 3, 2021 |

GU doesnt have nearly as many quality-of-life stuff and it just is a death by a thousand cuts kinda thing where any one annoyance isnt a deal breaker, but they add up very quickly and it makes the game feel like a slog imo I vastly prefer World over GU tbf tho, the hunter arts are pretty drat cool

Cats and dogs jumping into battle and making blue and yellow status fart clouds everywhere is ridiculous, ngl. Like I love it but it looks silly. I get why they let you bring your buddy to 4 players hunts, so you can ride your dog around. They could have just left them off to the side to idle until you called them though. I get thats an option you can pick but no one will actually pick that.
