I like the music in World but it really reaches another level when you have your own playlist and a guitar solo or breakdown or chunky-rear end death metal riff lines up perfectly with an anjanath roar

Ran some tutorial quests this morning both docked and handheld- having not played the demo I am very surprised how well everything is running, figured it would be a little choppy, though I am just in the starting areas. Coming from World/IB I expected the graphic quality to take a serious hit but they're really not bad. Already with like 2 missions knocked out I absolutely love the wirebugs and dog, they both feel so precise and control well. What good additions. e- page snipe have my favorite killscreen from World

Wrapped up the 3rd special license quest this morning and man is Almudron a dick. I've only fought it twice, but both times it gave me much more trouble than I thought it would using lance. Maybe it was cause I was playing before I fully woke up but I was having a tough time discerning where, aside from the head, I should be hitting it. Half of the hits around the neck seemed to bounce off and I swear some of the hits around the tail were bouncing too. Any tips? Also, is it still safe to assume for lance that raw > elemental? Saw a few people on reddit say that that's kind of out the window now but haven't really played around with any elemental weapons yet.

 Grabbed my first WEX 2 talisman over the weekend and it's this guy Definitely nice versatility, but looking at 3 slot decos feel like I'll just end up throwing a 2 slot in there.It's nuts how much more confident I feel in my damage with this and the narga lance, feel like I'm getting back to where I was in MHW.

Guilty posted:So this is my very first monster hunter game that I've stuck with, the series always seemed super clunky and frustrating. I always hated the Lance, thought it was so slow and frustrating. Then I just saw these two videos and slapped together some bullshit Lances and cobbled together bits of armour and proceeded to set a new PB on nargacuga (5min45sec), just imitating what these guys did. Holy hell is this fun. Now I just have to learn how to use insta block and drop all these points in the guard skill from my build

Heroic Yoshimitsu posted:What’s the current go-to armor for great sword. I currently have a bunch of random stuff that just so happens to have a few of the _ Draw skills, but certainly there’s better. Right now I'm running (I believe) close to meta for the goss GS: Zinogre helm Anja chest Rath bracers Anja belt Ingot leggings and I lucked into a WEX 2 with 3/1/1 deco slots. This lets me hit 7 AB, 3 focus, 3 WEX which is generally what you want to aim for. I think people who are using the narga GS swap out ingot for rajang leggings. The charm you have will largely dictate the rest of your armor, so if you don't have a WEX charm the skalda belt covers you for 2 points but you are short a couple deco slots.

Zore posted:So I was slightly mistaken about the location, I got it from the nest at West Eutelle Forest not Wendwood! Sorry about that. This game rules and I'm already getting caught in my traditional monster hunter loop of barely progressing the story cause I keep wanting to build armor and now hatch new monsters. I should probably at least unlock all the gene editing stuff.

Super happy to find Tobi has jump so I can comfortably replace Ranmar in my lineup, but it's movement while riding is soooo annoying. I know it's basically a squirrel but this thing was slinking all over the place in World/Rise and was super fluid and snakelike and now it's got an irritating hop animation  Playing on Switch- I just finished up the 3rd act and noticed coming out of one or two fights that the game really hung on a load screen for a good minute or so. Has anyone else gotten something like this? I think it was before and after fighting legiana.

Feel silly for not realizing this earlier- you can use stimulants on your character and maxing each out at 10 is a pretty substantial perma buff to HP/Attack/Defense. Can probably grind them out easily before the end of the story, too. Does anyone know a guaranteed spawnpoint for Zinogre?

Then three turns into the fight a loving Bageljuice shows up. That was fun. I'm wrapping up quests and upgrading gear/genes before taking on the final boss of the story and lucked the hell out and got a Nergigante- this thing is absurd. It's level 39 and already has a higher attack than the rest of my party which are all level 46-47. I love my cactus-pitbull-lizard

Finished Stories last night and was super impressed by it, felt like it nailed exactly what I want out of a Pokemon game but with the mechanics of something closer to SMT. Kind of amazed that I didn't really get bored of the combat even after like 60 hours. Overall just a joy to play much like the mainline games. Also holy crap I can finally drop Kyle AND Ratha from my party

Was thinking him as well, but I kind of feel like having another rider would work better as it would offer more opportunities/flexibility for double attacks, no? Also could just be imagining it but I feel like rider party members are more likely to heal then hunters. Any time I was teamed up with a rider if we dropped below half HP it seemed like guarantee we got a potion/life powder. Kyle played it REALLY loose in the last few hours and I found myself having to heal him a handful of times, though maybe that was more about him being a bow user and insisting on using charge at every possible moment.

Another one jumping back into MHW after winding down on Rise/Stories. I finally finished the Ice Borne story and made it to the guiding lands which I'm enjoying in a boss rush kind of way, I guess. Was able to take out raging brachy after a few attempts and it was totally exhilarating- definitely the coolest fight I've had in a monster hunter game as I really started learning the moveset and saw where I could do full TCS punishes, etc. At this point I'm happy with my GS gear, masters touch/2-piece R. Brachy and the lightbreak sword, and now I'm just on deco farming. As far as endgame enemies should my next goal be Safi? Alatreon? I know Fatalis is going to take some time and I'm only at MR 90 so it'll be a little while. Cause I don't really play online I figure Safi is going to be a hassle but I'm under the impression I can slog through it on my own? Also, on a whim I decided to check out sticky LBG. I'm really happy I waited until endgame to do this cause it's so braindead easy that I absolutely would have never learned even the basics of this game, otherwise. It just feels like cheating it's incredible.

Evil Kit posted:After the final update Safi now has 1p scaling so it shouldn't be too difficult, though you may need to learn the fight a bit. Don't be afraid to dip into Online play though to find Safi lobbies, groups are more often a hit than a miss in those. Bananasaurus Rex posted:LBG ruins Safi. First phase you can do rapid sticky to break the wings and back. And maybe the head once. Then switch to elemental rapid fire and shoot its legs.

I'm shocked how easy some of these LBG sets are to put together and how cheap the decos are. Kind of refreshing after playing GS and lance for so long where you NEED specific skills, then on LBG you just need to make sure you have one or two things and one of them is always spare shot.

Yorkshire Pudding posted:So how is Rise almost a year out? MH:W is one of my top 5 played games of all time, but the demo of Rise didn’t really grab me. Most of the weapons I used didn't feel as heavy or punchy compared to MHW. I thought maybe it was an issue of playing on the Switch and tried the demo out on Steam, but swinging a greatsword or jabbing a lance just feels so much better to me in World compared to Rise. Silk bind attacks were also interesting for a bit, but with certain weapons I realized I was just waiting for openings to spam them nonstop and not really using the weapon to its fullest, otherwise. I also didn't find the levels in Rise were anywhere as immersive or fun to explore. That said I am a fan of horrible mazes like the ancient forest and genuinely like the busywork of chasing scoutflies and picking up tracks so idk maybe my brain is just melted. I'm still buying Sunbreak and there's a good chance I buy it all over again for PC cause I'm a Monster Hunter degenerate at this point.
