Other players were on the opposite side of him, theyc confirmed he literally just flipped around solely to hit me before I even zoned in

So does that confirm monster have awareness of players outside of their current area? I've seen gravios beam the entrance of an area too just to catch people spawning in so it seems to be intentiona behavior.

No, they seem to be aware of your presence as soon as you change zone, and literally ignore the fact that you're on loading screen at the moment, while game loads assets and shit and synchros with players

You'd never squeeze the truth out of Capcom but it they absolutely do. Even playing solo monsters will charge roars before you enter an area and even intentionally move to cut you off on gathering quests.
>>

I actually hope theay have as much of the older monsters as possible, as long as they also have a good amount of new stuff having oler fights available is always a plus for me.
>>
>>336789875
The load time of digital version is like a second and a half, not nearly enough time for gravios to charge and fire and have it aimed at the entrance, or for rajang to do a full 180 and fire the beam, unless they already knew you were coming in and where you would zone in

Oof, straight to the insults. Raw lbg is shit and given your response you know it too.
>>
>>336788730
Either they just start an attack with lengthy animations or they don't know why sleep is useful.

How much attack/sharpness/etc does a Lv3 GS charge actually need to surpass a barrel bomb L+ in sleep damage?

>>336789876
A lot of older monsters like Khezu, Gravios, and Monoblos essentially need a proper rework.
>>
>>336790474
I dunno how multiple lbb+ are resolved, I think only whichever blows first does the triple damage
>>
>>336790474

I'd say it's irrelevant, since sleep provides opportunities to benefit all levels of play.

Though I'd wadger no single attack could ever get stronger than 8BBL+
>>
>>336788598
It is accurate, however. Monhun existed well before Souls, and Souls implements Monhun-esque elements:

>weight to attacks - wind up, wind down and bouncing

>>336790435
It kind of isn't, if you know what bowgun to use and how to build for it. It's just, on a scale of 1-10, with 10 being weapon's greatest potential, raw lbg is 5-8 depending on how well you understand and build it.
>>
>>336791581

Don't forget the awful camera

Seriously if the Monster is by the gate you are entering through, it's basically better to go the long way so you don't have to experience the nightmare of fighting with the camera INSIDE the monster.

And God forbid you lose track of your camera in a Souls game, looking at you Nameless King

How the monster AI works is that it selects a target, and then attacks in that direction. So you were lucky enough to be selected as the target and the attack came in your direction.

I don't play GL, but if shelling in both 4U and X is relatively underpowered compared to poke damage, would there be something wrong if Capcom made shells scale with raw?

They reduced shelling power in MHX further because they boosted poking more. Clearly they're not fond of the idea of just poking or just shelling with the weapon, and want you to do both because of the heat mechanic.

>>336792796
Well yeah, ideally you want to be doing both since otherwise a whole part of the weapon just becomes useless otherwise, and if you do pokes only you might as well be using a regular Lance

Heat is a good idea, but they still probably need to tweak it a bit

I personally think lock-on would be an improvement to monhun if it wouldn't trivialize ranged weapons.

Though I can understand why people enjoy the aspect of having to keep track of the monster's position manually.
>>
>>336793360
>they still probably need to tweak it a bit
Story of Monhun's life.
>>
>>336793360
Seriously, I don't get people who only poke or shell. Comboing with both is some of the most fun you can have in the game.
>>
>>336793457
>if it wouldn't trivialize ranged weapons
Except it would make them worse, really. Ranged weapons rely on manual targetting to attack specific weak points to get most of their damage, way more than melee weapons do. Locking the camera on the monster and aiming separately from the camera would be horrid bullshit, and locking your aim to the camera would be useless.
>>
You should get the full body of the monster you carve, while keeping special requirements for things such as tail cutting and horn breaking.

Being able to look at an armor set and think "okay I'll need to hunt this mon 4 times and cut the tail at least twice" would be much preferable to the grindyness of fighting till the right drops happen.

Try Lance or SnS. Mains of either typically seem to like switching between them.

GS is also worth learning, powerful and also satisfying to play but also uses the draw attack a fuckload.

>>336795462
Red essence with IG is the real deal, the lockdown and other essence boosts are a bonus; do not even attack without getting it first thing. And speed nectar only makes it easier to obtain.

There's many reasons why it's pure cheese in 4U.

And MH only had 5 years to think of differentiating stuffs to add.
>>
>>336797775
Like I said, it's the basis.

But it's far from the same thing.
Not only do you have to deal with the RPG mechanics like leveling up and experience in PSO, but damage also has ranges and is generally set up that there are parts that take no damage, and one big weak point.

MH just took that concept and ran with it. Made the boss fights you see in PSO as the main focus and built around that. Weapons with a far more unique moveset per weapons instead of different animations on light and heavy that you hit three times in a pattern.
Got rid of all the EXP and levels, and then made damage deterministic.
If you hit the same place in the same way every hit will do the exact same amount of damage.

They improved on the basic concepts of Gravios with two entirely new monsters in Tri and then just made the worse aspects of the monster even more infuriating in 4U.

Honestly, they had Gravios just fine before.

A more-or-less stationary monster with powerful ranged attacks and large moves to scare away blademasters.
That coupled with his crazy weakness to ranged attacks, especially elemental, makes him a perfect gunner monster.
But then they make him far too mobile and accurate for his own good in 4U.

I did like the added breaks and how each one sends him into fits.

Basarios is just the juvenile form of Grav.

So depending on how he grew up, it would lead to normal or Black Grav. I think mainly based upon the ore Basarios eats.

That's also why Basarios uses camouflage to hide as a pile of rocks, as his hide is not yet tough enough to escape into lava.

I can't take it anymore. I've soloed all of MHFU, 3U, 4U, but the outraged monsters in X are too fucking fast. Too fucking strong. And they take all fucking day to kill.

I know, but mechanically speaking it's the same general system of "Monster 1, but different." I know that biologically they are classified as the same monster with different ages, but mechanically that is the system.

I like to think the shell of a Basarios is mostly hardened lava on top of it's shell, which is why it likes to bathe in it and the dirt. As it grows, the layers of rock will shed and be replaced, including the red minerals on it's back. Black Gravios have more iron in the rock on it's shell making it darker and much harder.

Truly this will be the death of the franchise, every new monster since 3U will randomly just move back 10 feet.

It's not an attack, there's nothing you can do about it, you just have to sheathe your weapon and chase after them, wasting time.

On top of what everybody else has said, most of the time you're running around with the thing on your back so you can usually superman dive more often. The weapon has like a mere three attacks in FU but is expanded in both 3U and 4U

Be aware that it needs Focus (FastCharge skill tree) to get the most out of your opportunities. CritDraw is just a bonus but not really required.

>>336804661
Daora's Samudra has 30 more true raw. Icephantom has no purple sharpness after S+1, and it's elemental damage is only really going to do shit on something like say Najarala.

I'd say go for Anubis (Diablos) first if you haven't done so already, it's a very consistent general use IG with two slots and very high raw on top of being much easier to hone. Daora's Samudra would probably be better than it for something like say Plum Hermitaur or Savage Jho, just use Calculating Palico to figure out what will do more damage in your setup.

He's not wrong, the music is ok at best. The level design is a joke where you have to go through loading screen after loading screen.

Having to grind the same monsters over and over again is boring while in souls games you don't have to grind at all.

Depends on the weapon, SnS, DB, and LBG have very fast draw/sheathing times

>>336810741
That is displayed raw which for all the different weapon types is multiplied to give you a rough idea of average damage after shit like motion values and whatnot. Its true raw is 160 and the upgrade is 260. They're kinda underwhelming, but at least the first is a free high rank weapon.

Hammer could be considered mid tier or so, but more importantly Charge Blade stole its thunder and can score the two first KOs on a monster stupid fast because of its burst damage and you can punish monsters for fucking attacking.

>>336811320
As far as /v/ and /vg/ are concerned, CB is the weapon that you'll probably get scolded at for using. It does have a high skill ceiling but also a low skill floor. Use what you want, though.

>tfw MonHun is the only game that can even make me purchase an NX at this point

At least Capcom are cool with the shit tonne of free DLC for the releases. I hope Blanka cats come back in Generations.

That is if the NX will be a handheld in some ways or if Nintendo begs to Capcom for a port of MHX_ as a launch title

I hope Sanic cats don't come back ever

Wuh? KO:ing is just the icing on the cake, Hammer is still very mobile, versatile and strong.

Best keep your hopes low. People care way too much about what the NX is going to be, all that matters to me is what games it play.
