First for X is casual garbage,
I miss underwater because it created a situation in which gunlance could be relatively good.
Xth for what the fuck am I even doing edition
Pic irrelevant
Do you think it tickles when Cham uses her tongue to steal your items?
>>125402441
It tickles like a truck
>place bomb for Nibelsnarf to eat
>cha-cha blows it up
Fucking dwarfs!
>>125403082
Throw a sonic on the bomb, you'll never go back.
>could not enter room
Is this because they made the room in a full lobby?
>>125403249
What do you mean, friend? What happens?
>>125403514
Snarf bites where you throw the sonic bomb, eating the bomb instantly even if it was on the other side of the map
So why did upgrading weapons in MHX get completely changed compared to previous games? I'm not really complaining, but it feels pretty odd compared to the previous iterations.
Also, is damage/element displayed in raw numbers now? It seems like it is.
>>125403576
I will have to try that out. Thanks!
fuck i cant play online anymore anyone know whats up? im on emunand 9.5
>>125402441
>her
Chameleos is male, ya dingus.
>>125404297
How much do they pay you?
>>125403973
>pink
>thinks it's male
Topkek. I bet you think Pink Rathian is a boy too don't you? Weirdo.
>>125404454
I'm pink and I'm male.
>>125404454
Please, Chameleons is genderfluid stop triggering me with your poor use of gender pronouns
>>125404390
Not as much as what they're paying for MHX shilling, but I get by.
>>125404829
>MHX shilling
literally where. its just a few shitposters calling the new game garbage and like 5-10 people playing together
>>125405316
And then we have shitposters like you calling out on MHO. Like pottery.
>>125405508
I'm not the same guy you replied to lad
I dont hate MHO, I actually think it looks good graphically
>>125404829
that should be a hunter art holy shit that was cool
>>125405667
And I was being sarcastic.
>>125405906
I cant detect sarcasm through text friendo
What are theweapon tierlistlike in MHX now?I hear SnS is finally not shit, might wanna main it again.
>>125406382
It was pretty obvious sarcasm m80-O.
If a guy is responding casually to something serious like an allegation or something there's high chance the guy is being sarcastic. Not even going into the content of the reply even.
>>125406547
CB and GS got nerfed, LS is worse than nyantas and bow is top tier.
>>125406726
So what are the current standings?
I know it's subject to change because the game is still fairly recent, but I'm just curious as to where the weapons stand at present.
What if /MHG/ made a new monhun game?
>What kind of monsties would you have besides the originals? (New stuff, not what old ones to include)
>What changes would you make to current weapons/what new weapon type would you add?
>Where would the game take place? What kind of hub zone/which preexisting hub expanded and how?
>What would you change about the interface or gameplay systems? ex:quests,monster pathing, player limit, loading zones etc
>>125406547
CB is a Narga killer
Not an Outraged Narga, not even Tempest Narga, just vanilla Narga. That should tell you what became of that weapon in Cross.
>>125406547
SnS is beyond OP now due to SPIN2WIN granting complete invulnerability, and the coatings are insane. Bow is an absolute monster too, especially with that new hunter art that allows it to easily chop tails off AND deal fucktons of damage at the same time.
CB is nerfed, and IG got toned down. I haven't really messed with IG enough to give an informed opinion though.
MHXR's new NPCs. Pretty much hinting that 4th gen monsters will be in the game.
>>125407623
クソゲー
>>125407623
How does lagi armour imply 4th gen?
Choose me a monster waifu.
>>125406895
>new weapon
ive always thought having a whip type weapon would be cool, could have coatings and be in between melee and range with long multi hit animations a le ds could finally finish my simon belmont cosplay
>>125407973
Congalala.Enjoy your having shit all over your dick and bedsheets
>>125407973UnknownRathian.

And what is her name?
>>125406630
I'm not too sure of that good ol' buddy of mine
>>125406895
KONCHU AND ALTAROTH BOSSES
WITH ELEMENTAL VARIANTS
LS should have 2 spirit levels instead of 3. Improve the damage on spirit combo.
Underground with more dwarves.
Remove rajang.
>>125408080
I think a ball and chain weapon would be better and more fitting for MH, but I love the idea of long reaching Blademaster weapons.
can the lance not bushido dodge?
>>125408763
Phones in MH is a long lost technology from the Ancient Dragon Wars.
Name is Elemia.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7WCs3KNHoa4
What the fuck is wrong with the serves right now, I can't stay in a room for half a hunt before getting any one of 6 or so errors and getting DC'd
>>125409056
It can bushido guard.
Do SnS coating run out based on time or number of hits?
>>125409097
>Elemia
Meh, I thought its gonna be something with the Sha like my nameWriting it down now.
So Los CB or Lavasioth? Lavasioth is looking better since there are absolutely no other CB with proper raw at this point.
I don't understsand, how come Bowguns get a food buff for their shots( normal shot buff or aditional atk up) but bows get nothing?
>>125409876
If you can negate the negative affinity then Lavasioth CB
>>125410258
Temper
>>125409849
How can you blacklist someone who killed you and wearing your skin?
>>125410371
>If you can negate the negative affinity
nice meme
>>125409528
what's the point though?
It's just like counter but doesn't last as long, guarantees a counter hit, and makes it difficult to quick block into shield charge.
>>125410390
Enjoy half your arrows hitting red arms when you aim at Rajang's face
>>125411183
Yeah.
>>125408080
>>125409013
Weird.
I always had this idea for a weapon that boiled down to a flail weapon that could detach its ball mid combo as a one time ranged attack. Until you go and hit the ball to pick it up you'd have a quicker but weaker chain whip. Other hunters could smack the ball with their weapons to send it rebounding around the map to hit the monster too.
>>125411486
>ball keeps getting knocked around and now you can't find it
>it comes rolling over you when a random Konchu smacks it
Yeah, no
Gave up on MHX and started a new game of MH4U. Jesus christ, this is a good game. I always said MHFU, MH3U and MH4U were equal but now I'm starting to think MH4U is the best out of all.
On my first playthrough I made the mistake of minmaxing too hard, grinding too much equipment and using the best weapons, but now I'm more relaxed and oh my god is it amazing.
>>125407801
>mfw that helmet model isn't available for 136-140 relics.
Sunken Toilet and Volcanic Toilet for best zones of 2015! I'm glad you love your slopes Ichinose!
The zone is so great Uragaan has to literally tunnel to get from zone to zone!
>>125411743
4U is all about LR&HR, its G rank is garbage.
>>125411743
Good, enjoy the screenshakes!
>>125411714
Not him, but a simple and obvious solution would be to have a very blatant and obvious arrow that shows where the ball is on screen, just like how there is an arrow showing you where Vega's claws or Millia's pin is on screen when you play Street Fighter or Guilty Gear.
Oh boy, is it already time for retarded weapon ideas?
Lately I've been thinking about a railgun-like weapon that shoots throwing axes that can have coatings applied to them.
And keeping the theme of axe weapons having a transforming gimmick, there could be a close range "chainsaw" mode, at the cost of it rapidly consuming the applied coating.
>>125406895
MORE DROMES! KONCHUDROME, GIGGIDROME THAT'S BASICALLY A JUVENILE GIGGINOX WITH LESS POISON, ALTAROTHDROME (ALTARODROME?), RHENOPLODROME, ETCETERA! ALSO THE FLAGSHIP IS A BIG AND POWERFUL RAPTORAL BIRD WYVERN BASED ON THE THERIZINOSAURUS!
HUNTING HORN GETS A COUSIN IN THE OCARINA MACE, WHICH PLAYS A RANDOM SELF BUFF AFTER A COUPLE SWINGS!
RICE FIELDS, MOTHERFUCKER.
MAYBE ONE AREA IS A BIG CONTINUOUS AREA THAT REQUIRES REAL TRACKING. YOU CAN CLIMB TREES AND STUFF TO GET A BEARING ON YOUR LOCATION, AND THE MAP IS SO BIG THAT YOU HAVE TO MANUALLY OPEN IT.
>>125412624
You know it is. What would it look like?
>>125411714
Thought about that too, not that it'd be possible to balance.
The moveset would include a circular swinging attack with a very long reach while holding r and moving.
With the ball attached it'd build up momentum so you could release r to launch the ball with proper timing, and with the whip it'd create a large hitbox that would automatically catch and reconnect the ball to the chain if you needed to intercept the ball from ricocheting around.
>>125406895
I'd just do the same shit Tri did. All new monsters, 100% new areas, the only returning monsters have a completely revamped moveset and all the weapons get new moves.
Fuck content, fuck recolors, fuck G-rank and fucking fuck "balance".
>>125406895
every quest will be either egg delivery or kill 50 vespoid, I will also add hunt-a-thons except with gathering. There will no no monster hunting at all, oh wait, I just described MHX
>remember that gore magala you killed? it disappeared
>implying i didn't put it to sleep, take it home, and rip apart its body for materials
>>125413354
it was a hologram
>>125413354
>implying they actually use the monster you captured to get the materials you're rewarded with
The majority of capture quests are people who want a live creature, so when you capture a monster the guild provides you with parts from other hunter's kills that they couldn't carve off in time. It explains the tails.
>Bowgun needs a tail to upgrade
I thought we were over this shit. is Slicing S still fucking useless? MH4U btw
>>125413706
Slicing S is usefulon one LBG and nothing else.
>>125404829
MHO does some neat things but I don't think I can support anything by Tencent
>>125407623
I'd love to play that but I can't.
>>125413967
Neat? But sealing the monster's movement is the worst part about MH. Hammers are tolerated because there's no way you can do it more than twice per hunt.
>Alatreon can be tripped again like in Tri.
This instantly redeems the monster.
>>125414158
>not regularly getting 3 KOs with hammer
MHX niggas, what style is generally considered best for SnS?
Currently rolling Guild because I'm too old and lazy to experiment with the others, but I'm checking out the pastebin and on paper it seems Bushido is pretty gud for it.
Thoughts?
>>125414535
Striker.
>>125414535
Striker since SnS is babbymode anyway.
Brachy DB worth honing for attack?
>>125414557
>>125414624
What do I lose from Guild asides from the backhop?
>>125414742
Respect since now you're using an OP weapon
>>125414821
Don't give a shit, Striker it is then.
>>125414821
>you're using an OP weapon
how exactly is it op?
I was giving striker sns a shot while you two were talking with a 180 raw and it took longer than the "worse than nyanter" longsword for me
>>125414880
Good thing there aren't many players that follow /mhg/'s meme ethics
Post more lewd huntresses!
>>125413967
They say the same about Capcom.

>>125415534
True. I'd love do have some smooth jazz rooms sometime instead of all these damned greatswords and bowguns. Screw the op weapons.
>>125415687
>>125415960
Why aren't you hooking up a gameshark to kill monsters in one hit? In fact, why not just sell the game and watch someone else play it on youtube?

100% new content, bring back seasons and day/night cycle.
Subspecies are not a different monster but a rare occurence that yields a bonus when hunted, bigger when captured
Tri style armour upgrading, X style weapon crafting
Weapon customization, "replaces" styles, stuff like custom bowgun, mix & matching DBs, CB/SA/GL Phials/Shells aren't stuck on the weapon.
Elemental GL shelling, shelling scales off raw/element. can instal a Sonic shelling instead of WF. Power phial removed.
All returning monsters/armours are reworked/redisgned
Main village is a big city, Arena would play a bigger role (urgents, contests, story events)
Calendar with fixed events (2 quests = 1 day) like contests, tournaments and (breeding)seasons
"Exotic armour", ask the smith to craft an armour with the design of an exotic village(old design for nostalgia)
Quest rework, Urgents are solo only challenges, like arena quests,sometimes story relevant hunts, they are unlocked after a bunch of any quests.
General QOL changes, mainly around the item box, sets, decorations and inventory but also fluidity changes around Guard and crafting.
Element rework : 100% damage on neutral resistance, less on resist, 0 on immune, more on weak, Element splashes work like blood: the bigger the stronger, if immune the element won't be shown.
Ressources are research points : You can purchase items, decors, monster info books, monster damage charts, weapon motion values, armour customization options (more than one colour to change)
Zenny has a lot more use and is a lot harder to max, arena contests are the best way to earn it, it can buy houses, decor, special purchase-only gear, your own cook (Would work like FU's kitchen while the public cook would work like 3rd gen Kitchen)
Switch Axe complete rework, axe mode more fluid, based around SWITCHING often, leaves "phials" like CB
Bowguns have Element and status like Bows.

HH rework : holding R while attacking plays the song instantly at the cost of stamina drain.
Felynes NPC only meow once when you talk to them, Palicoes only meow when a hunter would.
Charm crafting, "special permit" unlocks max stat at the cost of rare mats, special weapon crafting works the same way: a max set of points that you can allocate however you want, you can then select a weapon skin and a colour.
Free hunting is Tri style merged with Treasure hunting.
>>125417786
CBG would be a separate weapon.
>>125418005I recommend making the room right then.

Why is Tamamitsune's waterbeam the coolest attack?

Ok thanks.
>>125419563
Because of its ability to one shot you in early armor.
>>125412624
Pardon the unoriginality but, I have an idea of merging the GS and LS into a single weaponcalled the Charge Sword.
Attack in LS mode to charge Spirit Phials then discharge them in GS mode.
>>125419938

The fuck?
Will the sticky get updated for weapons?
Bow info still has no power shot info.
How do I into bows?
>>125423208
It depends... are you making a guide?
>>125423239
Sure, tell me everything I need to know about bows first though.
>>125423458
They're very shooty.
Why do people level up Zinogre guild quests? It's just not right to put people through that I tell ya.
>>125423516
It became a dank meme thanks to May's bravery.
>>125423458
A bow is a flexible arc which shoots aerodynamic projectiles called arrows. A string joins the two ends of the bow and when the string is drawn back, the ends of the bow are flexed. When the string is released, the potential energy of the flexed stick is transformed into the velocity of the arrow. Archery is the art or sport of shooting arrow from bows.
Today, bows and arrows are used primarily for hunting and for the sport of archery. Though they are still occasionally used as weapons of war, the development of gunpowder and muskets, and the growing size of armies, led to their replacement in warfare several centuries ago in much of the world.
Someone who makes bows is known as a bowyer, and one who makes arrows is a fletcher —or in the case of the manufacture of metal arrow heads, an arrow smith.
First time being gunner. I have read and practiced a lot, so I have an idea on how shots work.
but, holy shit. Has pierce always being so superior to normal shots?. I always use Normal 2 and aim for weakspots, but even with pierce 1 I can feel I kill monsters faster, and make them flinch a lot more.
Has his been the case for every MH, or did capcom decide to make pierce clearly more powerful this time?
Well, I guess it figures, being able to carry only 60 Pierce, and combination rate for pierce lv2 being low as fuck compared to normal lvl2 or lvl3
>>125424056
>Has pierce always being so superior to normal shots?
Not by a long shot. There's various factors that dictate which is better.

Sharpness+1 and atk up M

To use with dual blades in 3U.
>>125406547
SnS has never been bad. It's always been a jack of all trades weapon, and even moreso in 4U.
The way it is now is borderline broken because it didn't get any less good at being a jack of all trades weapon to compensate.

>>125427782
>backhop > shell for offensive evasion
damn that seems situational as fuck but pretty damn cool
>>125427803
Striker Style allows you have 3 special attacks.
>>125427901
It's not offensive evasion. It's basically a double hop and doesn't use any bullets.
>>125427803
>>125427938
Oh, there's more.
Striker Style (ストライカースタイル) gives the hunter three Hunter Arts to use in combat at the cost of some of the hunter’s moveset. While using the Striker Style, the Hunter Art gauges will fill up whenever the hunter takes damage in addition to when they deal it.
Meanwhile guild style allows 2 arts, bushido and aerial allow 1 art.
Striker isn't necessarily the shittiest, it's just the most customizable art. Considering it doesn't even allow for sideways fade slashes with Longsword, I'm not going to bother with Striker, ever.
>>125428035
oh it doesn't actually do any damage?
well that's disappointing
>>125427085
>>SnS has never been bad
I'd love if that were true. Bottom to below average tier, which it has come in for many titles, is literally not good.
>>125428110
>things shitters say
>>125428042
Striker tends to be the worst style, but some weapons like SnS and SA have really nice strikers that don't lose anything of real importance
>>125428079
You use it for the invincibility frame. But frontier also have offensive guard as an armor skill.
>>125428110
It was by far the best weapon in 1st gen. Since then it's been average at worst. I think you're still looking at it from a kill time perspective. Kill times for SnS are indeed subpar, but it excels greatly in other areas. For instance, using items. I've saved so many shitters from inevitable death by being able to pop lifepowder or dust of life instantly. SnS is probably right up there with Hunting Horn as an amazing support orientated weapon.
SnS is the safest melee weapon by far. It has short attack animations and the ability to shield. Do the rest of the maths there. Combine this with a status effect, and you can be really reckless when it comes to applying status
SnS is also the best mount weapon in 4U with the exception of ridgeless areas, where the IG is obviously better.
The only thing the SnS is really bad at is cutting tails and hunting Gravios + Basarios, that's basically it.
>>125428263
What does the SnS lose? I was thinking of just going Guild Style with SnS.
>>125428461
SnS loses the backhop.
>>125429025

Did he come across to you as someone who knows what he's talking about? Tripfags aren't figures of authority, they can be shitters too.
It being convenient at saving shitters isn't it being good, it just means you're playing with shitters who need to be carried. Kill times is something he's already admitted is subpar, and there's the extremely shitty range.
Thank goodness it's been buffed now,
>>125428461
I'm not a beginner, I don't need a "safe" weapon. It's something I'd recommend to newbies given how versatile it is, but once a player is better andskillcan compensate for lack of shielding, convenient item usage etc. there's no saving the shitty reach and lack of damage. It was always pretty shit until MHX.

>>125430579
Yeah, my bad there.
>>125430005
You are way too defensive about namefields for it to be healthy.

How can he drink that when he is wearing a helmet? That pic makes no sense, Anon.
>>125430579
When developers decided to give THE gamebreaking change to GS, they decide to nerf SnS to eliminate any form of competition with it.
>>125430830
>he
>>125430828
That may be so, but SnS is still a below average weapon for most titles.
>>125430986
But I already said that.

Noted.
>>125429763
The only thing the backhop was good at was making an infinite combo, which isn't something a roll can't do. In fact, there are better combos for SnS for better damage output, such as X > X > B > B repeat.
Backhop a shit.
>>125430005
>bad range
SnS has better range than DB and hammer, outside of superpounds. Any range issues you may have with SnS are eliminated with an X+B charge.
>>125430159
Safety has no dependency on whether you're new or not. Read my posts again. You can afford to be a lot more reckless with a safe weapon, allowing for dealing status damage very proactively.
>>125431657
Yes, and those bad ranges are made up with much superior damage. SnS had no middle ground. It had bad reach, bad damage.

Did Bluntness made it irrelevant?
How's long sword in mhx? I'm using bushido ls and getting pretty nifty times, but I am interested how well it fares on the tier list.
>>125431657
LBG does status application faster and safer. Asides from general survivability, convenience of items usage and babysitting, there is literally nothing SnS could do better than any other weapon.
It was strictly a newbie friendly weapon that became more and more subpar the higher you went.
>>125431707
>SnS, the jack of all trade weapons, has no middle ground
But that's just plain wrong. SnS' reach is inherently short, but thanks to the weapon's amazing nimbleness, it isn't a real setback as you are able to reposition yourself constantly to stick to the monster better than Zinogre dick can stick to Zinogre knot poster's butt.
>>125432010
I know. I specifically have been saying SnS excels as a melee weapon in these fields. All ranged weapons will always be safer and better at applying status due to being ranged, and being able to use multiple status effects. I left them out of it for this reason.
that feel when you have to wait 15 days to get back online cos of console ban

Yes, it's a shittier DS.
>>125432458
But if we look at Japanese TA times, we can see that it's as good as the LS :^)
>>125431775
of course not
data collection for this game seems to be slow in general
>Ferocious Gypceros is physically incapable of doing anything other than charging with no breaks between
Might as well have just made it a Variant.
>>125432549
What's wrong with ls?
>>125432458
And it's a shittier LS, and a shittier hammer, and a shittier hunting horn, and a shittier DS in all of their specialized fields.
Since you're obviously fucking retarded, I'll help you out here.
>"Jack of all trades, master of none" is a figure of speech used in reference to a person that is competent with many skills, but spends so much time learning each new skill that he/she can not become an expert in any particular one.
>>125432735
Might be because alot of people are dissatisfied with MHX in general. The TA side of MHX is slow too, depending on other weapons.
>>125432756
>Outraged Najarala has its dig attack sped up.
>>125432458
except DS and most other weapons are now strictly worse than SnS.
SnS is now:the best KO weapon and one of the top 3 damage weapons.
>>125432978
i dont agree with this, aside from shitposters that don't even have the game, people have been enjoying mhx
it's more likely that people are just too busy playing the game to do data collection
How IG upgrades work in mhx?
>>125432953
What role can an SnS play in a four-man party? Being a specific jack of all trades role is useless because any shortcomings for a single player can and will be made up in a party. Want a balanced "jack of all trades" party? Mix it up by having a user good at dealing damage (GS etc.), a user good at stat-application, a HH for support, and long reach weapon if you want to farm tails.
The fact that your SnS is the jack-of-all trades at the micro level (or so you say, I think it's just shit) means that it is shit in the macro level where much of the hunts will be in parties. In solo play, where damage out put is key, it'll lose out because of it's piss poor damage.
Your Gen 2-4 SnS is shit, deal with it. There is nothing a SnS can do that other weapons can do better in a group.
>>125433534
You use monster materials to makes your weapon stronger.
>>125432756
I call it the Shining Flash Crest Gypceros
And whenever he charges, he also clacks his lightcrystal so by the time he stops charging, he releases that flash.
I could have come up with a better variant name more in line with the MHWiki's dodgy translations, but oh well.
What weapons are nyanters out damaging?
>>125433265
They're talking about Gen2-4 though, pay attention. No one's going to dispute MHX SnS though, coatings plus Hunter Arts plus very fast gauge buildup makes it a very potent tool.
>>125433669
None.
>>125433669
Until I see solo nyanter speedruns proving otherwise I will never believe they are anything other than bottom of the barrel joke weapon tier
>>125433551
>Monster Hunter is a party game
There's this bad meme again.
>In solo play, where damage output is key
You have to be shit if you can not kill a monster in the alloted time with an SnS, even in g-rank solo play.
>piss poor damage
No, not piss poor. Subpar compared to other weapons. It's still plenty of damage.
Oh boy, now we need clawfag and khezuposter to shit this thread up even further than it is already!
