It's pattern memorization at best, and while bosses can ruin your shit in a few short hits, that's because they're largely poorly designed combat-wise and otherwise very easy to cheese.
I don't find Dark Souls or Demon Souls fun. At all.

Deviljho, Stygian Zinogre, many Elder Dragons...
Also, Magala doesn't really do dragon damage. That's virus damage, which is something completely different.
>>285051708
The sharpness on Pecospander+ is even more booty and it's got more raw behind it to boot, plus there are more things weak to fire in the early game than there are to water.
That said, the sharpness on Dragonmaiden Axe and Axe+ is also booty and it's got even more raw power, plus poison which is honestly 2gud in this game.

Someone hasn't gotten to G-Rank.
WHO S+1 IN LOW RANK HERE?

I prefer using ioprey greaves.

Disregard that, I suck cocks
After one of my friends needed frills I found an assload of jag claws in my box

>>285052916
I might be.
I initially used Alloy Greaves because they went well with the Ceanataur armour, but the Ioprey Greaves black baggy pants and similar colour boots to gore armour fits better in my opinion.
Killed 12 Najajajajajaja-snakes for their beak, zero beaks. Yet, I'm still having fun. I hate myself.

You should get one every 7-9 quests.

How do I get abilities?
>>285053443thank you
>tfw no mh4u on vita
>>285053525
Actually, fuck, I messed up my math.
You'd get one every 7-9 quests just from carving.
You'd get one every 4-5 quests from carving, face, and back. 3-4 if you gather from at least one white shiny.
Give some actually good tips for a complete noob to the series who is finishing the weapons training missions. I am leaning towards the Sword and Shield weapons.

Got that glorious pink rathian knight set and the Prathian Charge Blade.
Pink Knight!
>Browse box
>2 fucking Rathalos Plates
Seriously!? They look just like scales, I had no idea. I only hunted like 5 of them.
Any ludicrously powerful weapon/armor I can craft with these?
>>285053739
If you really want to learn to get better, and do some actual training:
Undeploy your cats, pick one monster that is at least a challenge, Rathian, Nersc, whatever you want.
Fight that monster, over and over again, alone. With every weapon type (or at least everyone you care to play seriously) Take a few hours and just fight it, in a cold place with cold hands if you can (better for training, always do progression in a warm place). This wil lteach you true recognition of a monsters patterns. It's the easiest way to "get it" and understand how you need to move. The removal of the cats means the monster focuses on you alone and you can't cheat and deal damage when he is distracted.
Once you have done that, fight the monster either with cats or online, and try to translate what you learned about how he moves solo, but see how they move when doing those same patterns away from you, there could very well be different openings.
You don't need to do this whole spiel for every monster, but it's a great way to understand the rhythm and flow of combat in order to not get hit.
I did this on Barroth, P.Rathian and I. Lagi on 3U, and each time I was on a plateau, but managed to really learn something and become a much better hunter.
Also try it without any traps or flash bombs or any of that. Only you, your weapon and armor, and the monster.
>>285053561
Skills are activated when the points threshhold on various stats reaches at least +10.
If you go into your status menu, then flip the page once left. there will be a table of various stats. Press Y to examine them for a general idea of what each one will do when activated, and if they can activate further.
When you forge new armour, press L to flip the info page left and see what points they add to. Then press Y like in the Status screen to see how your skills would change if you added that piece, and what the skills do by highlighting them again. The green-highlighted column is the piece you're currently looking at, press Y and highlight the areas where it adds points to find out what they do again.
>>285053739
SnS is a glue-yourself-to-the-monster's-ass weapon. Medium or heavy weapons can get away with not attacking 24/7, but to do maximum damage with the SnS that's what you're going to have to do.
The XXAAA combo does more damage than the XXXXAAAA combo.
After an attack, pull the slidepad back (relative to the direction your hunter is facing) and press A to backhop and automatically retaliate. Holding the slidepad (back) will cause the hunter to stay back. Letting go of both the slidepad and A will cause them to rush forward and cut. Holding A will perform a charged attack that can hit once with the shield and another time with the sword and is pretty good if you've got the opening for it.
SnS can use items whilst unsheathed. No other weapon can do this. R+Y to use them.
SnS will not be a particularly strong weapon early game compared to other weapon types, due to its reliance on status and element damage to make up for its cripplingly low damage-per-strike compared to medium or heavy weapons. Once you've got a good collection of elements it starts to come together, but a good all-around SnS in the early game is the Gypceros SnS, but before that the Seltas one is also good.
>>285054237
Yeah, figures. Same with all my other Plates. They sure took the fun out of rare drops.
>>285053739
if you're leaning SNS pick up a sword 'n shield with status ailments like poison/sleep/paralysis
SNS is a weapon for spreading affilctions, later in the game you will be fighting an explosive dragon called Brachydios, get his SNS because it causes Slimeblight which is pretty much a small bomb.
Also adding what >>285053990 said, don't try to do everything with just one weapon, different monsters have more or less effective weapons.
>>285053525
Now some jackoff said you gotta break the face twice. That the beak scar isn't the actual break.
>>285053739
SnS has "extended super armour" on its X+A distance-closing rushing slash This means that - while ordinarily taking some teensy flinch damage or getting buffeted by a gust of wind cause you to flinch, get knocked over, or otherwise have to recover - you get to ignore most things but the stronger hits for a short while after the running slash, even extending into the following combo for a little bit. It doesn't last long, but it can be handy.
>>285050456
this is true at low/high rank. At G rank anyone can die at any time unless you aren't helping at all
>>285054371
It is. It doesn't break twice.
>>285054590
Beginning to wonder if that damn Ceanwhatever armour is even worth this torture.
>Raging Gore Magala is harder fight than S.Magala
How and fucking why.
>>285054719
>Sharpness +1 when combined with gore and torso up legs
>Razor sharp with speed sharpener otherwise
Yes. It's worth it.
>>285054325
When is an appropriate point in the game to begin doing this? right off the bat? I have been hunting Great Jaggi for it's armor at this point.
>>285054719
It's not. The Cenataur SU combo is long dead.
>>285043742
You can't be serious right OP?
>>285054787
Aaaaaaand you lost me.
>>285054724
Bigger and flatter arena than you fight Gore.
>>285054805
Completing any set of armour will always yield you various skills. Great Jaggi armour has, what, Speed Sharpening (sharpen in one swipe as opposed to 4) and Halve Stun (meaning it's easier to get out of stun)? Pretty handy for a newbie.
>>285054946
Where did I lose you?
>>285054724
Did you know there's a Chaos Gore Magala ;3
>>285051223

>>285055015
I do, and I have no doubts that it will be tougher than Shaggyman.
>>285055086
Well excuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuse me, Princess.
>>285055006
Is there benefits to have armor that doesn't match? Or is having an armor set generally the best way to optimize your equips in the game?
How are there still people who don't know about armour skills?
The game tells you about it explicitly and even if you skipped all of that for some reason, how could people not wonder what all the +s and names mean on the armour pieces?
>>285053645
I was saying the same thing until I got MH4
>>285054509
/v/ won't play the game up to that point when it can just shitpost.It would complain about artificial difficulty once it hits Tigerstripe Zamtrios
>>285043742

Smash Bros
Anyone who claims 4U gets hard in G rank didn't play MHFU.
>>285055160
Early game, the best mixing and matching armour set is done with gore magala chest, waist, ceanataur helm and gauntlets, and any kind of boots with the Torso Up ability (which doubles the points on any chest piece). This yields Sharpness +1 which typically either extends the current level of sharpness (good for weapons with absolutely miserable next-level sharpness) or unlocks a new level of sharpness altogether.
In the endgame, mixing and matching certain armour pieces together becomes more viable and in many ways more important, but having full armour sets can and always will be viable.
In the early game, it's probably easier to stick with full sets for the time being. Between charms and decorations you've already got plenty of customization to work with without having to balance multiple pieces of armour for a custom skill set.
>>285055382
Anyone who claims MHFU's G-rank was hard never played MH2.
>>285055183
There are always dumbasses who can't read. Always.
>>285055382
As someone who has played FU, a number of event quests in 3U were already harder than anything FU had, and G-Rank in 4Uis way harder overall than anything FU had. Sorry.
>>285055382
>back in my day you had to walk fifteen miles just to kill one narca!
Yeah grampa we know you had it much harder than us
>>285055006
Which parts Cenatuar, and which parts Gore is that Sharpness thing you said. I'm so fucking new it hurts.
>>285055562
Literally false according to all credible series veterans.

A third of the people in G-Rank are like this. They won't understand when you try to tell them they need a Wystone to effectively fight Apex monsters or that they don't have a single active skill, and will proceed to cart on something as simple as a Seltas the moment they have to fend for themselves.
Wait, are you telling me there isn't a way to change your weapon in the Gathering Hall?
Grade A retardation right there.
>>285055697
Oh shit that looks pretty nice.
>>285055664
Because there's no such thing as player skill increasing over time.
And why should I believe any "credible series veteran" on 4chan over my own experiences?
FU's monsters were way too predictable and too easily goaded into certain actions. They may have had the occasional too-big hitbox or too-quick attack, but the shit tier AI destroyed a lot of the challenge. Even shit with more than one monster in an area was easy peasy if you actually used more than just one weapon and knew how smoke bombs fucking work.

>In the early game, it's probably easier to stick with full sets for the time being. Between charms and decorations you've already got plenty of customization to work with without having to balance multiple pieces of armour for a custom skill set.
So do I save my armor spheres instead of leveling up my armor until I find proper armor?
>>285055854
The only thing that actually disconnects you is going to Snugsnug Isle. You can go anywhere else and visit your home just by tapping the world map, an area, and your house then immediately teleport back by doing the same to the gathering hall.
I can't actually think of many times that the game has EVER let two hunters change equipment in the same room together.
>>285056008
No, the lower rank armour spheres are crazy common, you'll be drowning in them before long if you don't use them

You better not be talking about the Palicos. Those guys are super useful, they're like having half an extra player with you if you know what you're doing
>>285050627
>I don't find Dark Souls or Demon Souls fun. At all.
You're THAT pathetic. Egads.
>mfw just fought against Dalamadur for the first time
Holy shit. We lost the fight but I'm still immensely satisfied with the hunt. Based Japan finally gave me the chance to know how it feels like to be Conan the Barbarian.This is exactly how I always dreamed a fight to feel like when I look at those old D&D arts with a few miniscule warriors taking on a huge dragon/monster.
The west will never ever give you a satisfying fight againsta big monster where you actually feel the weight and scale of it. This game is pure ecstacy and awesome.
>>285056068
Ok last question. When is it a good point to make a new weapon as opposed to upgrading the start game one?
>>285056008
Blue and green armour spheres are too common to give a shit about holding on to.
But yes, don't spend them on your Derring Gear.
Also do yourself a favour and buy Leather armour. You can get the full set for only 500z, and it gives you Spirit's Whim (pickaxes/bug nets break less often) and Gathering+1 (you can occasionally gather a tiny bit more from any gathering spot).

Really?
>>285056217
that's exactly how I felt playing FFXII
>>285056268
Whenever it looks like a good option.
There are so many factors involved that I couldn't possibly pinpoint a point in the game when you should do it.
You'll be wanting different weapons for different monsters a lot anyway. Elements and status effects can make a big difference
>>285056268
That's largely up to your discretion, but a good point is when it has a higher level sharpness or great enough difference in the attack power value.
Different weapons within the same class can have vastly different properties depending on the weapon type.
>>285056271
Thanks for the tip maybe I'll craft one for gathering purposes. I'm working on G. Jaggi armor. I only need one more piece for the set.
>>285056301
The more risk you take, the easier / safer it actually gets. When you play super duper defensive you are just giving the monsters more time and chances to wreck your shit.
>>285056210
>Combat isn't difficult or engaging, just largely either cheesable or pure bullshit
>Exploration/adventure is largely trial and error or guided via FAQ
Yeah, it's no wonder I don't find it fun.
>>285056431
You should always have Leather Armor for gathering purposes. Nothing sucks more than to run out of pick axes halfway through your harvest tour and you may not want to bloat your inventory with a billion different kinds of axes / nets because you want item space for the stuff you are gathering..
>>285056431
Like I said, you can literally buy Leather Gear from the armoury, no crafting required. It's the guy to the left of The Man, and he'll just straight up sell you Leather armour fro 100z apiece. No hassle, no material consumption, real reason not to do it as soon as possible.
>>285056554
>>285056554
I made a monster hunter thread if anyone wants since I'm assuming there're a few MH players in here

That's pretty much it, best give up now. Write a review on the game while you're at it.
>>285056758
I use sa/sns mainly
cb fags go home
>>285056758
Probably because CB exists now and it's basically the same thing with more damage and more options
>>285050627
>Every thing that moves is trying to kill you in this game once you leave the safety of the town.
Pattern memorization is true but so is skill,weapon,armour and experience of the player.

>>285050831
>>285051056
If you kill the same monster enough times MH becomes piss easy even when soloing
>>285054509
The only reason i might not be able to do a G rank is if the timer runs out before i kill the monster,i subvert this by using weapons with a high crit rating.
>>285056968
CB is better than EVERY weapon though because it was designed by a 12-year-old, and it plays absolutely nothing like SA.

>>285056873
When you do the quests to hunt proper monsters.
Pretty much every rank of quests until late in the game is 2-4 shitty and unnecessary "kill 5 jaggi"/"collect 6 bullfango cocks" and then a bunch of quests for large monsters. The large monster quests are the one you want.
Frankly I don't know how this question even comes up as of MH4U though. It takes maybe one hour max now to start hitting decent quests even if you're just doing them one by one and not skipping the shitty ones. Previous games had way more dumb shit at the start.
>>285057183
That set was made for carting, climbing and rolling.
>Speedrunning/Getting carried through the entire game
What's the point?
>>285057138
>High crit rating
What the fuck are you talking about? Affinity? And timing out solo? Play more aggressively, I soloed up to G3 without issues. You just sound like you suck at MH.
>>285056758
I do too. Might learn how to use CB eventually but I'll still main SA

Affinity increases chances of critical hits.
He thinks continuing to attack G ranked mons when they go into rage mode is a good idea.
Some G missions have you kill more than 1 mon then again these were designed to be played with friends and not soled.

God, Soulsfags are the worst.
The Monster Hunter is more challenging, more rewarding, and the combat has more depth than the Souls games.
The only reason I would play Souls over Monhun is because I like games that have a world I can explore.

The usual. Shit that can be applied to most weapons.
>>285058316
3U was a damn fine game, so much so that I'd still consider playing it with 4U out. The old monsters they reintroduce in 4U just aren't as good as Tri monsters.
>>285058571
Not even close. The only truly original monsters in P3rd were Jinouga, Arzuros and Nibelsnarf, in 3U Brachydios and the final boss. 3 stars into MH4 and there's more content than ever before.
>>285058207
I know what affinity does. I also know that affinity crits are a 25% damage increase. They don't make a significant difference, although they do help on certain weapons. And yes, you can just attack stuff in g rank while enraged, you just need to learn their attack patterns. Like I said, I soloed up to G3. And believe it or not, the game is designed for solo play to be viable. Multiplayer turns even g rank into a cheesefest.

Its always people who get comboed because they don't realize they can delay the standing animation now.
>>285058990
They actually do make quite a difference especially with GS OR LS those are the weapons that hit the hardest.
I like to play it safe and not attack em in rage mode.
That feel when your brothers dont like MH,cant go online to play Mon Hun with strangers.
>>285058461
Disregard all Soulfags there Bosses have health bars none of the Big mons have health bars you have to guess how much HP they have left.

That didn't work when I tried it. How long is the MOI?
>>285059643
>Clones
No more than Barioth was to Nargacuga, or Agnaktor was to Lagiacrus, I assure you. Lagombi was far more mobile than any of its Pelagus cousins, had ranged attacks, and could snow you. Volvidon had tremors, paralysis spit, attacks that could reel you in, bounced around, and could essentially backhop at any point in time. While the three were equally weak and shit monsters and shared a rough body type, they absolutely were not clones.
>Leviathan in the air
It shared a rough skeleton and one or two moves but was an overall way different fight. It also had many unique moves.
You have no fucking clue what you're talking about, at all, and yet you feel comfortable judging games you haven't even played. That's really, well, frankly it's pathetic.
>>285059724
I just feel like its bad game design for monsters to not have cooldowns on their skills in order to maintain diversity. Its either annoying or boring (not difficult) when a Khezu yells 3 times, or a Rathian non stop turns and charges across the map out of range.
>>285059978
You can't delay it forever.

When you get sent flying onto your ass, just release the inputs and don't do shit. You'll just stay laying down.

And take damage like usual. I noticed.
>>285057138
>If you kill the same monster enough times MH becomes piss easy even when soloing
how is the same not true for DaS and DeS
>>285060239
Only if you lay there for too long.
>>285059980
That's fine if you like to play it safe, play however you want to. I just prefer the thrill of keeping up the offensive when a monster enrages and shit gets serious. That doesn't mean that I don't know when to back off, I just know when I have openings.
>>285060239
You take damage while laying down, but no enemy is going to be on your ass that fast. You're invincible during the delayed getting up information. So lay there until they turn to you, then start getting up.
>>285060085
MH4U's G Rank unlocks monsters so they will use their strongest moves in succession if they see an opening.
Have fun.
>>285060520
Doesn't stop a Rath from wallraping your soon-to-be-corpse against a wall for a static 10 second hitbox.
Some actual questions I couldn't find good answers to:
1. Does the strength of hunters for hire depend on the HR / unity / or gear of the people you get the guild card from? Or does all that play no role and it's basically just random?
2. Can you hit a monster more than once with the same attack? I ask because, using a GS, I noticed that when I charge-attacked a Gore Magala my sword first hit its wing (hitlag) and then hit the tail beneath the wing, severing it (another hitlag).
So can you hit multiple "zones" on a monster at once?

Is this MH thread? How the hell do I unlock Catch and Release and See the Lightining in 6 star caravan quests? I read that I need to do Howling for Blood, but that didn't unlock them. I really want to hunt Kushala Daora dammit.

You posted the wrong Ys game for that opinion. 7 bosses were a snoozefest.

>Avoiding the same 3 easily avoidable attacks for 20 minutes
You're describing MonHun, anon.
>>285064021
Wat? I need to do online quests to unlock shit in Caravan? I didn't read anything like that in Kiranico.
Time to school all the kiddies in this board.
Monster Hunter is the single deepest, most challenging, most skill-based game ever created. There is not a single other game in any genre that comes close to the level of skill Monster Hunter requires.
This is why Monster Hunter threads are the best, most intelligent threads on GameFAQs. Only the smartest, brightest, and most patient people post in them. Essentially, the very best of humanity posts in them.
Conversely, the only people who don't like Monster Hunter clearly don't have the skills to handle its depth. It is too hardcore for them. That's okay though. Games like Halo exist for people like them. Monster Hunter fans are too good to hold grudges.
>>285043809
This game's G Rank is pretty fucked up pal.
But the LR is the easiest it's ever been. You'll learn when you get to level 120+ GQs
>>285064004
DaS is fun, but very exploitable and lacks difficulty on repeated playthroughs. MH monsters are nuanced and randomized enough to make every battle feel unique.
>>285064089
>Spending 20 minutes with any monster
Casual detected.
>>285064004
That's simply wrong.
I can play through DaS at SL1 and naked.
MH G-rank stuff can give you a real run for your money, especially apex monsters
>>285064070
They weren't the best but they still kick the shit out of MonHun bosses.
>>285064201
>>Spending 20 minutes with any monster
>Casual detected.
This. MonHun is easy as shit. Every monster dies easily in about 10 minutes tops. There's no challenge in it.
>>285064362
In my time people at least put some effort into baiting
>>285064201
>MH monsters are nuanced and randomized enough to make every battle feel unique.
>half of the bosses are just reskins of the same dragon with one new move
>rathalos, rathian, khezu, cephadrome, monoblos
>every battle feel unique
>>285064441
What does Monoblos have to do with Rathalos other than them having two legs?
>>285064362
MH works in the way that you can either struggle for 10 minutes or have extremely intense 5 minutes.
>>285064441
What's your reason for never playing MH, anyway? Are you mad or simply bad?

You guys should try G Rank Rajang with me something. Iirc it's level 116. We could also work on my level 119 Zinogre or 123 Deviljho, I need their mats and don't feel like soloing. After all, you're the prohunters here.
>>285064585
It really won't be intense. MH isn't hard.
>>285064610
>Co-op
Fucking casual. Make that two SSJ2 lonehanta and git gud
>>285064209
that just means you know more about DaS then MH.

>What's your reason for never playing MH, anyway? Are you mad or simply bad?
Man, I knew MH grindbabbies were delusional but straight up lying? lol.
>>285043742

>>285064610
>levels
Since when monsters have fucking levels? Is this monster hunter or rpg now?
>>285064697
Nope.
DaS is just much easier once you've seen a boss. I love Dark Souls (and all Souls games, really), but it's definitely and by far easier than G-rank MH
>>285064872
>Rephrase into actual arguments or fuck off.
>What's your reason for never playing MH, anyway? Are you mad or simply bad?
You should have quoted the guy one above me if you were actually interested in actual arguments.
>>285064697
nah, G Rank in this game is much more challenging than most games ever. Simply because the monsters are smarter, have more moves, stopped taunting so much. Of course, if you know the monster you'll do well (I can get G Zin down in 7 minutes because I know it) you'll still do fine, but it's still pretty difficult on a technical level.
Especially G Brachy, it got all of Deviljho's and Diablos" power since their both pushovers now.
>>285064907
Yeah thats because dark souls boss' are actually difficult whereas Monster hunter high rank shit are just damage sponges that dish out insane amounts of damage.
MH is infused with real "artificial difficulty" then DaS is.
>>285064880
MH has always been an RPG. Stats are generally more important than skill.
>>285059724
Nah, Capcom never fixed the vertical hitboxes on a lot of moves because how every monster used to be. Now you can be 10 fet below a Rathian and get hit from a fireball that hits the ground above you. Or my favorite ones are Gore Magala's fireballs that wrap around the area and clip through ledges like heat seeking missiles.
>>285065087
> dark souls boss' are actually difficult
They really are not.
Only redditors circlejerk over "le dark souls so hardcore" memes. It was never true.
>>285065097
But where do you see monster levels?
Why so insecure, DaSfags? It's not like MH fans come into your threads for validation.
MH is harder, deal with it.
>>285064880
When you get a guild quest, you level it up each time you do it. You have a chance of getting a really sexy randomised weapon and Define Armor Spheres. At the higher levels. However, at higher levels the monsters will begin to get frenzies, apex and VERY strong, as well as gain more HP.I like it
Makes easy monsters like Zinogre harder and hard monsters like Brachy hell.
>>285065008
Don't shift blame. Your argument was literally "The game isnt hard." so you don't deserve to have a retort that is any better.
>>285065125
>khezu's lightning balls just go through walls
lol
>>285065173
>brings up reddit for no reason
Oh you already ran out of things to say i'm sorry I shouldn't of exposed you so hard
>>285065220
I'm not shifting blame at all. I'm just pointing out your posturing is completely transparent. Of course, you demonstrate it again by not actually paying attention to the discussion at hand. Good work, bro.
>friend brags about beating monsters in under 10 minutes
>play online with him
>ends up carting because he is an aggressive little bastard
Why do people like to rush hunts so badly? I don't care if you can do the quest in under 15 minutes all I care is that we win and it was fun.
>>285065220
> Your argument was literally "The game isnt hard." so you don't deserve to have a retort that is any better.
And everyone else's argument is "This game is harder than Hurr Souls" which is equally as laughable.
>>285065181
This x1000
People just wanted to shit on + help each other, like every other MH thread. But for some reason the Souls fags feel like every sarcastic post like >>285050456 is real, and then insist on shitting the thread.
lol, they probably couldn't even finished Ninja Gaiden on Xbox. That was difficult.
>>285065176
It shows it on the quest, they get their own quest sheet. You can do the levelled Guild Quest or normal ones.
Jesus, Deviljho is fucking nothing now. That nigger used to scare the shit out of me, but he was a piece of cake even though he was frenzied.
>>285065304
It's fine if you're a redditor, just make sure you stick to r/gaming for your "daaaamn dark souls is so hard! I just beat O+S wooow!" stuff
>Just went to try Apex Rajang solo to test the waters
>Picks up a boulder the size of a small house
NOPE
>>285065404
Because taking more than 10 minutes on a boss is for casuals. Git fucking gud you shitter
>>285065474
You have to prove a game isn't hard before you prove it is hard. Thats how burden of proof goes.
>>285065487
He starts dealing damage in the levelled quest but he really isn't that tough anymore imo. Actually, if you're a veteran he was never tough. He's more of a noob killer.
Rajang on the other hand..
Rajang is scary. Scarier than it has ever been imo. Still beatable, but getting hit is so punishing because it's so aggressive
>>285065484
Ninja Gaiden is far harder than any MH game.

Stop trying so hard to fit in here, seriously.
>>285065693
I know, I'm saying the Souls fags probably didn't finish Ninja Gaiden, I should have clarified. Ninja Gaiden is one of the hardest games I've ever played.
I get the feeling the people who claim G rank is easy are probably playing with 4 overgeared people using Para weapons with traps.
>>285065801
It's like 1 shitposter who has never even played MH

Welcome to MonHun threads.
How big do you think His Immenseness' dick is?
>>285065801
>4 overgeared people using Para weapons with traps.
So 4 people who got gud. Got it.
>>285065771
I dont understand why you people say this. Threads on this site revolve around conversations between individuals. Wouldn't it be weird if threads consisted of 200 people who only made 1 post? It makes far more sense for people to make 4-5 posts per thread.
>>285065993
You dont need to get good with 4 people. Anything in the game is easy with 4 people. They got geared, not good kek.
>>285066081
It would be totally fine if the thread was actually talking about the game instead of throwing shit to each other about "muh difficulty"
I heard that if you level up a low rank guild quest enough it will turn into a high rank quest. Is this true? If so, does that mean that, for example, if I fight a Kirin, i'll start to fight its high rank form?
>>285065781
>>285065693
It's hard, but soloing MH's endgame content was harder.
The only game I can think of that's harder than MH would be Battletoads. And certainly not god hand, DMC3 and whatever else you have in mind.
