Looking at some armor augment results they look definitely not entirely random. My guess it's something like this: You get a number of points, depending on rarity - rarity 8 gets 30, rarity 9 gets 15 +1 of defense or resistance costs 1 +1 slot costs 10 +skill costs 10 for skills on basic list - that's your element attack, element and status resists and whatever else, usually matching size 1 deco skill costs more for rarer skills; wait for datamining I guess - Chain Crit and Heroics are definitely worth more removing skills armor had refunds same points. Skills you'll get are rolled randomly and then the result is adjusted to the right points total by adding/removing defense and resists. If you rolled a rare skill one or more of armour's skills get taken for balance.

There isn't a specific talisman I want or have in mind. I throw poo poo at the melding machine and see what it comes up with for me.

Augus posted:Sick, how high level are we talking here? Level 50+ investigations Incidentally for people trying to unlock A5 anomalies, it works like gathering temepered tracks in world, you have to be at 50 or higher and you need to be fighting monsters in the same pool to get them to drop, so stuff from A4 Pyromancer posted:Looking at some armor augment results they look definitely not entirely random.

Dabir posted:So where do you unlock Spinning Bludgeon: Charge? And what are its downsides over the regular? I believe it's out of the box when you get to master rank. The downsides is fewer hits in your spin, which only matters if you use spinning bludgeon to help stack in more element damage. Honestly, it's great, learn how to use it and try it and see if you like it. I'm still bouncing between it and the regular and playing with what gets me the biggest Numbers on downs (Had a big bang combo do as much damage as an impact crater. Hammer is in such a good spot right now)

Zombeef posted:I assume that, just like save scumming charm melding, you have to force your rng seed to change. Meaning you need to do a quest and save. Most people doing charm scumming just load up the rajang arena quest and die because it's much faster than most options. Think we are back to tables. No one has found a way to reset your seed. Not sure if its one big table or different ones. Base Rise was the same but they eventually patched it when people started getting stuck in loops.

On the plus side, once you unlock one you'll get the rest really fast, just unlocked seven of them off of one quest Also anomaly zinogre is ridiculous once he gets powered up, shredded me with maxed birds

If they can just avoid screwing things up to the extent of MH3U’s cursed tables, I doubt there will be any issue - charms are much more interchangeable now with decorations and the death of the point threshold system.

the issue with mh3u charm tables were that due to a programming error they never rotated and so you were stuck with whatever table you landed on when starting a new game. this is not the same thing.

editing talismans doesn't feel super guilty since I feel like the grind of weapon/armor mats is plenty to do and difficult enough and it's annoying RNG. also, the perfect talisman is giving what, 10% more damage and maybe fitting in something QoL, like stun resistance or speed eating? which does not seem game breaking when anomalies have tons of HP and some QoL skills lower my frustrations greatly

I don’t blame anyone for editing a talisman lol, it’s not a competitive game, enjoy it as you wish. I just don’t see why anyone would take the time wasting half measure of savescumming it. I guess it’s hard to cheat on switch, but if you wanted to “cheat” you should get the pc version lol. So many good mods.

Yeah savescumming would be for switch hunters, I can't imagine there's many people out there with that inclination who wouldnt just edit in a talisman. Maybe they genuinely enjoy the savescumming process??? There's lots of people out there. You never know.

I think you overestimate how many people know how to do save editing in the first place, that and they're probably worried about screwing up their game by trying

If I do higher level afflicted investigations can I get higher versions of anything Ive already unlocked? Or will I have to slay Tetranadon 100 times to see how strong this bastard can get. Love the guy, wanna see him at his finest.

Really wish there were more options for the gunlance. I know damage isn't everything but it sucks that something like the rathian GL decreases in shell level when upgrading it and there's very few shell 8 GLs. Still maybe my favorite weapon and perfectly useable, just expected a little better from the bazel set at least.

I’ve gotten like 5-6 at a time. It depends on how many parts you break and how well you do in the hunt, I think.

It depends on how many parts you break and how well you do in the hunt, I think. Gathering qurio-afflicted things also can give you clues for a new investigation. The system is pretty fun IMO; I've had a lot of success just joining up on join requests for what Bahari wants me to hunt.

Homeless Friend posted:Being a slave to the grind is what the whole dang game is about. You slowly transform into a speedrunner I agree for all things except charm grinding - between the system being obtuse, random, and sometimes even straight up non-functional, it's not really engaging or rewarding to have to deal with it. "If you break the toe, you probably get a chunk of toe" is a simple and satisfying grind. "[however the gently caress charm grind currently works]" is not.

I'd be more mad about the state of GL in the update but I really love the Pyre Rakna one and am fine to continue using it. Its cool sneak attack works but uh the armor seems pretty bad for GL otherwise so I imagine builds using it are going to be really stretched
