Royal Ludroth best monster.

Confirmed.

Nope!

Why do I find that image so funny.
>AAAAAA
Holy shit.
>>118586115
I'm going to post my favorite Rudroth pic. Then I am going to stop.I wouldn't want to upset the autists like last night.
>>118585794
>no porn
No, I think Yama is actually the worst.
>>118586203
Because Jho is the best monster!
>>118586085
Yeah, people sexualize Ludroth a lot.
>>118586203
Alright then.
>>118586250
n-n-nevermind I-I actually looked it up...
Reminder to blacklist MASTERLINKX as he is literally an autist. He samefags a lot to promote his shitty circlejerking friends. He's also known for posting CQs with higher than normal rewards on /mhg/ rooms, including large guaranteed monster sizes for easy gold crowns. Evidence here:

What is your "best" monster, then?
>>118585658
Hello /vg/, I'm Hydrophobic and this game makes me whimp.
Why does the cute dinosaur things have to swim around the LAGIACRUS and why do they have to fight back when I try to kill them...
>>118587010
So's your shitposting. Guess which one's against the rules?
>>118586797

>>118587324
You like Epioth?
You feel bad about them?You're the true monster.
>>118587260
Cool! You made it even better. Thanks for fixing it for me anon!
>>118586890
OOO
>>118587380
>>118587383
No, thank YOU.
>>118587380
WITH ALL RESPECT SIR, I GET THE REVERSE LOGIC THAT IMPLIES I'M THE MONSTER AND I'M WILLING TO AGREE.
BUT THE MONSTER, GOOD SIR, IS THAT THING OUT THERE, THE THING WHO IS THE NEW DEFINITION OF SATAN.
SIR. SIR. SIR!
>>118585658
What are the must have skills for Charge Blade?
Also best low and high rank armor for it? I just got into high rank caravan quests and I'm using the Shogun Ceanataur set.
>>118587380
I actually thought that Delex was its' dick.
>>118587539
That's because Delexes are dicks!

As long as the nipples aren't shown, it's fine to post on an 18+ christian image board.
JESUS CHRIST, THE FUCKING LAGIACRUS CAN SWIM FROM ONE ZONE TO ANOTHER!?
WHAT MORE CAN IT DO? CLIMB LADDERS? OPEN DOORS? My quest timer is down on 10 minutes and I still need 2 more monster guts.
>>118588350
>The Lagiacrus can swim from one zone to another
Is this a joke?
>>118588539
No jokes here, I'm fucking serious, fucker knows where I live and has no problem walking me home.
>>118588350
Jesus, anon. You can't be THAT bad at this.
>>118588350
You don't need to kill Lagi, anon.
>>118588647
Wow anon, are you developing feelings for it?
>>118588647
Every large monster patrols through multiple zones.
What the fuck. How did you not figure that out?
I mean, even the Aptonoths roam from zone to zone.
>pinkian is exhausted and just standing around
>'now's my chance!'
>little paralysis raptor comes out of nowhere and, surprise, paralyzes me
>pinky immediately does her swoop and pin and starts eating me
Life is terrible.
>>118588647
anon, pls. this is embarrassing
>>118588650
>>118588696
The cute dinosaur things don't always swim close to shore and when they do, dragon-satan devours them whole.
>>118588701
Oh yeah, the feeling of petrifying terror, it's that time of the year! Paralyzing fear is in the air!
>>118588776
The things with the Raw meat? I though they just despawned when they went off map.
>>118588776
That's the first large monster you even meet, anon. How would he know?
>>118588836
>'now's my chance!'
L-lewd, anon...
>>118588876
Best of luck anon,you can't even kill it in that quest.
>>118588907
>>118588836
That just means she likes you.
Is Maximsect still alright for Black Gravios AED spam? I'm having a lot of trouble getting the S. Zinogre umbrage I need for watatsumi, and it seems like it isn't that big of a difference statwise.
>>118588992
I don't want to kill it, I want it to die off by itself, far away where I can't see it's corpse.
>>118589056
It's not, and Maximinsect looks way fuckin' cooler.
Plus, you don't have to waste Zenith Ls honing it.
>>118589098
Be careful, if it sees you out of water running away it'll throw lighting balls at you.
>>118589193
Lightning balls? Are you shitting me? It shoots lightning?
>>118589246
From it's mouth, yes.
They slightly home in to you.
>>118589246
Did you finish the quest yet?
>>118589323
Great, now it can get me on land aswell.
>>118589331
No, I'm in the home menu to prevent the timer from ticking.
>>118589413
How much time do you have left, anon?
>>118589413
Why are you so cute?
>>118589468
8:33
>>118589483
>Why are you so pathetic?
Ftfy
>>118589641
You just called yourself pathetic, anon.
I won't hold it against you.
>>118589641
Anon, just abandon the quest, and try again. You now know what Lagia can do to an extent, and should be better prepared for the next round.
>>118589735
It is pathetic! It's a fucking game, textures and shit moving around, triggers and what not.
BUT FOR SOME REASON I just can't, I just fucking can't go more then knee deep in these waters knowing that Lagiacrus is in them.
>Sitting 10 meters from shore with a fucking binocular looking at the fucker killing my prey and I can't do shit about it.
>>118589838
I have 1 Gut, it took alot from me trying to get that gut and I'm not giving it up.
>>118588992
Has anyone have a 3ds theme with that pic? I want to use it but if it's already been done then there's no point.
>>118590024
Oh, I thought you were calling that other anon pathetic for calling you cute.
I don't think you have to kill Lagi just yet. He's just a big softy anyways. Throw him a fish.
>>118590140
Can I throw it fish? I have Sushifish? Will it suffice? Will it go away?
>guy tells me to go on quest when they join
>we are discussing something about taking turns
>it was my turn
>dude tells me to go a he was ready to go
>go on quest and he isn't with me
:_:
>>118590202
Go to the area that it's NOT in. If it's in area 10 go to 11, and vice versa.
>>118590351
But then I need to exist in the same water as that thing, what if it comes back? There is no land in 11!
>>118590431
If it comes into the same area, go to the other area. You only need 3 of the guts.
>>118590603
FRIEND, THERE IS TWO WAYS TO 11, ONE OF THEM LEADS TO MORE, DEEPER WATER. THE OTHER ONE LEADS to 10, WHERE IT FEEDS OF ALL THE CREATURES OF THE OCEAN.
IF IT COMES TO 11, IT WILL USE THAT WAY IN ORDER TO EAT MORE CREATURES.
I AM THAT CREATURES.
>>118590828
Go back and forth from 10 to 11, and 11 to 10. The other way is to 12 which has no use to you.
I want this anon to be still here when he meets Ceadeus and Miralis.
NO FUCK NO.
IT HAS LEGS. WHY GOD? WHY DOES IT HAVE LEGS.
THE LAGIACRUS HAS LEGS, WHY DOES IT HAVE THAT? WILL IT GROW TIRED OF IT'S KINGDOM AND LEAVE FOR THE LANDS ABOVE?
>>118590979
Yes, anon; it can go on land, and it will go on land.
>>118590935
Won't I bump into it?
>>118590979
Lagi scared the shit out of me at first when I started to play mh.
How is Guard+ on SnS?
>>118591078
HHHHHH!!! HHHHH!!!!
IT IS LOOKING AT ME WITH THOSE EYES.
IT SEES ME SEE IT.
IT SEES ME SIT THERE WITH MY DERPY ASS BINOCULARS FOR 40 MINUTES AND FOR ALL THIS TIME HE COULD JUST DECIDE, HIS BRAIN, HIS CODE JUST. DIDN'T. FEEL. LIKE WALKING UP TO SHORE AND SCARE ME AWAY FROM THAT HALF OF THE MAP.
WHY DOESN'T IT JUST KILL EVERYONE?
Damn it feels good to be aNorthwarden ritual Knightess
>>118591086
You don't take touch damage, when it enters just leave as quickly to the other area as possible.
Any good Zinogre wallpapers?
>>118591467
I don't care about the damage anon!
I care about the damage it inflicts on my Heart and Soul! To have that creature towering above me, to blot out the sun, to breathe the same virtual air as my character terrifies the shit out of me.
It's not that jump-scare fear, it's true fucking RAW PRIMAL fear that stretches back generations and reawakens to make me feel like shit.
>>118591331
Pointless; what attacks that require Guard+ does SnS need to block?
>>118591806
Well, anon. I don't know what to tell you. If you complete this quest you won't see him again for quite some time. (Unless you do the quest again for whatever reason)
>>118591282
It doesn't scare you now?`
>>118592125
Shit really? I wont have to deal with him? He just fucks off?
>>118592173
No, I passed the game ad hunted him for armor later in the game. You get used to him I guess.
>>118592173
Pretty much.
I just... I just have to swim out there and kill two cute dinosaur things without running into Satan under less then 8 minutes and I wont see him again. For some time.
It would be great to continue the game...
Maybe I should just run for it...
Any rooms up right now? Tired of hunting with randoms
>>118592437
Make one and I'll join.
>>118592298
Use a bowgun to snipe em out of the water if you get scared.
> actually thats what i did as well
>>118592298
Don't forget you have to deliver the monster guts to the box in the campsite.
>>118592437
I'll join too, make one.
>>118592465
I'm at work so hosting is not a good idea
I have come to a conclusion, I will complete this quest! I will not surrender!
IT WILL FEAR ME! IT SHALL INDIRECTLY STARVE FOR 8 MINUTES BY MY HAND! TODAY IS THE I WILL OVERCOME FEAR ITS-
>>118592471
A GREAT PLAN, I SHALL DO THIS INSTEAD, FUCK WATER.
>>118592570
Dont worrry about it bro, theres always a better way! My way will ensure your safeness. But you will have to kill the guy one day or another

Fuck it, I'll burn that bridge when I get there, I'm also terrified of mushrooms, much like the quest-woman.
Well, I thank you all for the help and such!
I'm off to eat and hunt whatever a "Ludroth" is! Bye!
>>118594426
Godspeed.
I've hunted like 35 Molten Tigrex, most of them we were able to break his head and/or cut his tail. I haven't missed a single shiny drop.Still no Dire Blastheart.
Kill me.

Change wep, it tricks desire sensor.
>>118586265
He can't run with a gs. And when he has the sword sheated, why is it upside down?
>>118592906
O--
>>118596208
Anon, if you were being chased by a fucking deviljho in leather armor you probably would sheathe your weapon wrong as you run for your life too.
>>118596208
>He can't run with a gs
You can now

We're still rolling!
>Have GL shots scale from raw/element just like CB
>Elemental shots
This is how we save Gunlance
>>118598143
GL shots don't rely on raw? Whut?
I think it's time the bow got a quicker sheathing animation, because mobility is much higher in this game compared to previous gens.
>>118598214
on shot level..
>>118598786
I'm honestly not sure what you mean. Just getting into gunlance.
>>118598846
time2spoonfeed
They have a separate stat called Shot Level going from 1-5, damage is based entirely off of that
A lvl 5 Wide Gunlance with 200 raw does the same as a lvl 5 Wide GL with 400
>>118599157
I cannot recall seeing that information in print, so thanks for that.
>>118599187
The only things that affect shot damage are shot level, shot type, and the artillery skill.
>>118593470
OO-
Keep on keepin' on

This is a trap right?

The beauty of shots being a thing of their own is that I only need Artillery God to fuck shit up.

How was the weapon balancing in MH3rd? Where there some clear winners, or more importantly, some weapons that werent quite up to par?
>>118604175
Weakness Exploit.
>>118604194
That isnt a weapon, silly anon
>>118604259
WE was pretty powerful back in P3rd, it added 50% affinity whenever you hit a monster weak spot, so this helped level weapon balancing issues, if they had any.
P3rd is such a charming game, I like a lot, even though it has a small roster of weapons and monsters.
>>118604521
Ah, Ok. Been playing it a bit, mostly with GS. Been thinking of doing some more SA, as Im slowly getting burned out of 4u.
>>118604712

Can relic HBGs ever even get as good as livid griscannon? There's, what? Only a 30 true raw difference? I've never seen a relic that can hold as many normal 2 shots either. Would it have to be like absolutely perfect? I'm thinking something with silver bullet would be really neat, normal and pierce on one set
>>118605320
Still 1 spot guys. Come hunt with us!
Hi guys, gunlancing here. Any tips on how to break mosnter parts? I'm having some strange results, like breaking small parts that usually aren't as simple with other weapons and not breaking the simplest things.

>>118612620
Rear crumple zone?
when going with SnS do you go with Elemental or Status
>>118613254
Status is better in groups, Element is decent all round.
It usually depends on the monster you're hunting and who you're hunting with;
A poison SnS will generally always be appreciated for Daora hunts, as will a para one for Monoblos.
>>118613254
Just go with raw. It works on everything!
Don't listen to the shitters who will tell you otherwise.
>>118613620
>have max raw, max para SnS relic
>never even use SnS, wanted DB's

And now with my T.Zamtrios armor awakening it, its insane.Still not my proudest moments
MHX apparently has some new element to replace Guild Quests, but Kojima and Tsujimoto obviously cannot talk about it.
When prompted about it by Famitsu, they simply said "I can't tell you anything specific, but of course we have something in store".

So what you are saying is the garbage fucking relic system is still a thing?
>>118617773
They had confirmed that for some months now, but nothing specific, of course.
I'm more curious about if this one will break the cycle and give us G-Rank.
>>118618281
>hating on relics
Literally retarded. The only thing that needs reworking is GQs and Apex.
>>118618427
No, relics are fucking garbage and need to be completely rebuilt or removed period.
>>118618427
Relics are retarded
Someone shouldn't have a massive advantage over another player just because of RNG
Make relics require gradual upgrades by sinking shittons of resources into them, but you're guaranteed the weapon you want in the end instead and the system would be fine
As it is it's just a dumb lottery that requires you to shoot monkeys for two minutes to play
>>118618553
shitter confirmed
>>118618604
nice, epic, I like it
>>118618504
>FUCK YOU, THE GAME SHOULD CHANGE TO CATER TO MY TASTES

Relics are entirely optional gear you obtain by defeating the hardest monsters in the game. It offers tons of replayability. There is no downside you idiots, especially when crafted weapons can be honed and are the only weapons for TA.
>>118618770
>by defeating the hardest monsters in the game
Yeah, thousands of times.
The drop rates are so damn low that hame basically becomes the only viable way of obtaining more than one.
Solo players are shafted entirely.
Not to mention there simply isn't enough diversity in the monsters you can hunt and still get decent amounts of relics.
Hunting Rajang and 3 other monsters thousands of times for months is not my idea of fun.
>>118618553
>massive advantage
Relics are not that great tbh. Better but not by a huge margin.
>>118618770
>It offers tons of replayability.
Then why did it make 4U's playerbase burn out so quickly?
>mfw there was no /mhg/ thread last night when I checked the archive
Also I need monhun reaction images
>>118618770
Anon, there's two things you should never say in these threads:
>[Something] is entirely optional
>All weapons are viable
Remember that we're in a land where lunacy and incoherent rage prevails over wisdom. Save your breath, well written arguments will only give you a bad spot in this community.
>>118619049
Because most people playing 4U are a bunch of babies who can't deal with grind and need instant gratification
>>118619049
>Then why did it make 4U's playerbase burn out so quickly?
Strange, I never fail to find people to play with, be it /mhg/ rooms or randoms.
>>118619159
>All weapons are viable
But they aren't equally viable.
>>118618770
>>118618715
Spoken like true fucking newfags
Have you ever played MHFU and then Tri and P3rd and actually look at how armor skills were nerfed? Want to know why? charms let the devs be 100% fucking lazy
Care to know what happened in 4th gen? Weapon paths were fucked hard. Want to know why? Because fucking relic weapons let them be lazy
Relics are just as bad as charms and only complete fucking 4U babies would disagree. No, it's not just endgame it fucks crafted weapons hard
>>118619415
Why should they be equally viable?
That'd be retarded.
Half the point of having multiple weapons is to give the players the challenge of discovering which ones are optimal. Perfect balance removes this entirely because you can just use whatever you want.
>>118619503
But you can have way better armor skills in P3rd and 3U than in FU
Most armor skills that got dropped from FU were dropped because of balance issues
>>118619415
>Implying clear times should be the same for all weapons
>Implying each individual weapon should work well for all monsters
>>118619671
They shouldn't have the same clear times, but some weapons should be better against certain monsters than others
Every weapon should have its niche
But in 4U that simply isn't the case, some weapons can do absolutely everything, or just do one thing so well, that they make everything else completely obsolete.
>>118619503
>Charms, relic weapons and relic armor were implemented to give more options to the players and even make hunts easier to some extent
>BAWWWW CHANGE IS BAD, CAPCOM DON'T KNOW HOW TO BALANCE, THEY SHOULD FOLLOW MY SUPERIOR ADVICE INSTEAD
>>118619853
I mean, the same 2 weapons have the best times against 90% of the monster lineup
How the fuck should this be allowed
>>118619995
Why shouldn't it be allowed?
If a weapon's specialty is doing lots of damage, shouldn't it kill monsters faster than other weapons?
>>118619901
Nice ad hominem but charms gives you less variety.
You are forced to build your armor sets around charms instead of the actual skills from the armor? and how to obtain them? Don't even get me started it's fucking suicide bombing and mining. That's right, to build your armors you don't hunt fucking monsters anymore you do tedious gathering
>>118620130
Because how fast it kills a monster is the only thing that you can judge a weapon's strength by
Having lots of damage as a specialty is like saying that its "specialty" is being better than other weapons, at that point you're admitting purposeful imbalance
Especially because the weapon with the highest damage in 4U also have some of the best mobility
>>118619995
Yeah man, how dare HBG heroics solo late G monsters in sub 5 times? or how Gongrigas wiped the floor with pretty much everything? these weapons should be completely removed from the game, this shit is outrageous.
>>118620236
If you hate doing tedious shit why are you playing Monster Hunter?
MH has always been 90% tedium 10% actual fun. It's part of the experience.
>>118620329
>HBG heroics
Heroics isn't even legal for TAs dumbass
>Grongigas
Very strong but not gamebreaking
3U kill times were still a lot more even than 4U where there's a 50% or higher gap between the top tier and everything else.
>>118620394
But the oint is you aren't fucking hunting monsters and you aren't building your sets based around their armor
You are building sets based around fucking charms
>>118620270
What about fun? Where does having fun factor into all of this?
can someone recommend some good Status SnS
>waaah muh balance
MH4U has 4 top tier weapons, how is that not enough?
Compared to the 1-2 of other MH games that's excellent.
>>118620509
>Heroics isn't even legal for TAs dumbass
>Implying people give a flying fuck about TAs
>Unironically using TA times to prove his point
Thanks for the heads up anon, I'll cease to use heroics from now on so I can please my TA Overlords and be accepted in the MH community as a Pro™ hunter.
>>118620813
DBs
>>118620812
Do you seriously have fun using Lance, GL or SA in 4U, when they're either numerically complete garbage, or just outdated and trapped in a game that's not made for them?
>people griping about relic weapons being better than crafteds
Only for a few weapons. And even then, the difference is slight AND you can't hone relics.
>>118620812
MH weapons are so simplistic that there's no reason why you should even prefer one over another based on anything but raw performance.
>>118620951
Perfect relics are better than honed crafteds for almost all weapons.
And for quite a few the difference is actually rather massive.
>>118620813
The Zamtrista Saw and Kyrie Ruin.
>>118620947
>I don't know how to use a weapon, so I'll just label it shit and come up with some mental gymnastics to give me peace of mind about being a lazy cunt
Yes, terrible weapons indeed anon.
*respectfully nods towards you*
How long have you guys been playing MonHun? I've been playing since early 2005 on MH1 when I was 10.
>>118621167
>bow, ds, and probably sns
>quite a few
>massive
Nope.
PLUS: can't use relic weapons for time attack runs.
That being said, everwood a shit, the relic and charm drop system a shit, and mh4u endgame a shit for it.
Woah, the Nerscylla Gunlance is something else. I like how different it is. Can't really understand how it could even remotely work (telescopic stick, probably hollow with the external axe part sliding, but still the inner part should be hollow to let the gun shell fire). How hard are nerscylla part so that this thing doesn't even budge when hitting or firing. Some of this weapon design are far too cool.
>>118621183
>expert users of these weapons still get significantly worse times than even average IG users
You literally have no argument
>>118621183
Nah, gunlance is fun as shit but so is playing Dan Hibiki.
>>118621394
Nerscylla HBG is my gunfu. Nice model AND great firing sound.
