I recommend doing the port high rank alatreon first. He does less damage and has more hp instead.

Also, I recommend using a slime weapon. He doesn't really have a consistent elemental weakness, so slime is nice to use against it, Poison or high raw is fine as well.

And yes, have mega pots and nulberries.

Warflare Demolisher is great once you get to it, especially if you're adverse to making a ton of different elemental bows.

I beat him wearing Rath. Soul and using the fish LS. I don't know what you're working with, but make sure to take full advantage of the binder whenever you can.

Bring nulberries and combo books + honey for even more potions.

If you don't know what weapon to use, and you're using anything other than bow, use Brachydios weapons. Slime is a good cover-all type. If you're using bow and have access to Awakening in some way, Kelbi Bow will carry you to G-Rank.

When the session starts it's always fine, but when things get a bit more intense and you need very quick movements, it turns into a pain in the ass. The teeniest, tiniest bit of sweat can also make it completely useless.

Swaxe is the most balanced weapon. It has reasonable speed, damage, and reach with a phial burst

Killed Gogmazios and attained bronze G yesterday (after a few failure attempts, and when I did kill him, I only had 1 minute and 40 seconds left. Soloing it may have been a bad idea).

Deciphering those scroll things and maybe going over some of the quests I skipped. I also want to make the Gogmazios armor set, 'cause I think it looks cool.
>What's the best monster and why is it Zinogre?
My favorite is a toss up between Gigginox and Gore Magala.
>What weapon are you using?
Switch Axe and Great Sword for the most part recently, but I've dabbled in pretty much everything. The only weapons I'm not comfortable with are HH, IG, and lance.
>>
>>317294389
SA has a really good tail niche. They're a bit weaker than the other power weapons, but they aren't a detriment. Also if you're using the right SA they are really good at status, surprisingly.

If you have an old 3DS you should just get a CPP for it and play on that. The CPP makes the 3DS comfy as fuck to hold and the circle pad is in a much better position.

Been playing 4U for a couple weeks, maining CB and really liking it. The game is getting more and more grindy though - I had this problem with 3U, where I stopped when I got to G Rank because I got bored. The difference with this is there's online. Should I try doing HR online stuff in 4U, or will it be deserted given everyone will be in G?

Depends on the player, that is a matter of opinion.
It's consistently removing difficulty and challenges then the game isn't fun anymore for those that wish to be tested.

For those that just want to experience the game, then sure it's getting better and better.
>>
>>317298302
MH hasn't simplified its gameplay aspects to nearly the same degree as the COD franchise
I say this having played both the first CoD on PC and the first MH on PS2
though MH is probably more guilty of rehashing than CoD, as CoD currently is a vastly different game from the first WW2 games in the series
>>
>>317298471
Star shitter is still popular. although GX hunterer is up there
>>
>>317298904
You're kidding right? Exhaustion, Weakness Exploit, and Mounting all trivialize the game, simplifying it. Even X is making it easier with base evasion +3, free supers, and free IG pole vault.

I'm sorry, anon but MH is being simplified to the same degree. If not more.

The only simplification I remember from cod is you use to require health packs to recover health, then in 2 they just gave you health that recovered over time.

The base game still plays exactly the same

No monster is getting better, they all play the same. The only difference is Frenzy/Apex and MHX drops both for just HC which is just frenzy. Monsters still follow set patterns, if you knew Narga's pattern in 3u you know it in X

That came in CoD4:MW, which was regarded as one of the better shooters on /v/ during it's time and on par with CoD2.

1 shot weapons existed in CoD2 as well, (Springfield, Trench Gun, Any bolt action rifle to the head). Map sizes were already tiny in Cod2, infact mw had bigger maps than most cod2 maps. They also had killcams, so really all you have is weapon mods and radar.

So Narga from X demo doesn't play like Narga from 3u? Do you really wanna argue that anon? You seem to be extremely defensive, I love monster hunter. But I can see why people are dissapointed with each iteration. The game is capcom's biggest cash cow in japan it makes sense to make it more accessible. You don't have to try to sell the game to me, I already enjoy it and been playing X demo for a while. But I'm not a blind fanboy willing to defend it at all costs either, I can see both sides.

Eh I know the feel man. I've been using a GS in P3rd. I'm just kinda bored after 10+ hours.

I really like both games. They're totally different. I don't know why people compare them so much. The main thing they have in common is that you're in third person and there are weapons.

The fuck?
>>
>>317300823
Because they play extremely similar to their other renditions, if you know how to deal with a Rathalos in a previous game you know how to deal with a Rathalos in the next game. The monsters aren't really getting better, unfamiliarity to a monster is challenging sure, but that doesn't make that monster better because you don't know how it plays.

You're like people who would argue Gore Magala is a hard and challenging enemy, and I guess if you were first fighting him sure, but after a cart or two you would understand his moveset well enough to clear it. Frenzy just gives monster more damage and defense, and Apex is just the same. Patterns are still similar enough that it doesn't matter.

Monster difficulty is stagnating while Hunter options are continuing to increase with each game.

Honestly just the fights with giant or seemingly impossible to kill monsters are the same as Demon/Dark Souls.

Both are incredibly important in each games. Only Dark Souls is open world. Demon Souls is linear as fuck.
>>
>>317301176
Yep and what you said is why I'm getting terribly bored of Monster Hunter. Sick of the same old after playing 2-3 different versions of the game.

MHX looks like it'll spice it up a bit, we'll see.
>>
>>317301560
>But all those things are completely different in both games
ok, i guess i haven't played dark souls and monhun, and i guess the thing that attracted me to monhun wasn't watching videos of gameplay in which carefully timing attacks against gigantic creatures with weapons of various speeds/draw times/what have you is an integral component.

>>317301805
i think you're just being oddly obtuse.
>>
>>317301176
with that logic the only thing that made the older games difficult is that it was the first instance where you fought those monsters
and MHX has special variants, which are vastly different from apex and frenzy, they're basically glorified subspecies
>Frenzy just gives monster more damage and defense, and Apex is just the same
also false
they get more attacks, they're much faster and unpredictable and there's the whole wystone thing.
and Apex takes that even further.

Someone who doesnt understand GTA or Mario Kart might think this is reasonable. What you are doing comparing Souls and MH is identical to the above statement.

figuring out shit.

monsters hit harder.
monsters have faster cooldowns on attacks.
monsters have more moves.
planning the fight based on gear (and accompanying skills) is important.

am i guessing this right? yet this is not fundamentally different. it's not like you go from pressing triangle in a 3rd person game to take 500 miliseconds to swing your sword, to driving a race car.

that triangle tapping (and holding and whatever depending on your weapon) is still there. you just have to be smarter.

and to me this is highly similar to dark souls, except you press R1 and R2 instead. i can't think of many games with combat similar except them and lords of the fallen.

Dark Souls is open world. You just play it. It doesn't explain shit before things go down, and the game consists of going from safe zones to combat areas, then bosses fights, where you yourself have to navigate and find where everything is. You can also use a normal long sword to beat the game is you go balls to the wall with it, if you really wanted. Bosses are generally one time things. You beat it Mario and Luigi once and never deal with them again until NG+ or another character. All it takes is a lucky run where they were retarded and boom, you're done.

Monster Hunter is mission based. Before every mission you're given some level of information on the task you are about to take. The game makes it a point to tell players to go into every situation properly prepared or they'll suffer from the environment first before even seeing a monster. When you actually start a mission, you go from the safe zone immediately to the fight area. No wandering, no black knights, no death trap maze. Mission prep, fight. If you don't upgrade at least your weapon, you will time out on later missions due to monsters becoming increasingly difficult. You WILL be fighting every monster multiple times, even within a single hour of playtime. As such, the game expects you to memorize the ins and outs of every one of them.

I can see why some people compare them; they're both combat focused and put pressure on players to actually get skilled at the game. They both have weighty combat...sort of. Only the GS really feels heavy. Even the hammer, CB, and SA are nimble at times.

If you're only claim to Dark Souls == Monhun is the combat, then that's a weak as fuck association that ignores literally everything else about both games. Nobody went through Blight Town and thought "This reminds me of hunting a Gigginox!"

Also while Dark Souls has weapon variety, the difference between thrusting swords and curved swords is nowhere near as stark as say, DB vs SnS.

the most important aspects of both games is the combat though, which is why i pointed out that they have similarities.

i wouldn't like either game if their combat were different and i imagine most fans of both series would agree. that's not to say they don't have distinct characteristics that are are important in a fan's overall enjoyment of either though. again, what made me start playing monhun was seeing the combat and seeing that the weightiness or timing or whatever was important like it is in dark souls. and i'm satisfied with the game right now because of that (i main GS btw).

you seem to agree with me on the combat (that they're similar - not identical) and that's pretty much all i was arguing.
