2 spots
What if monster info books actually gave useful information?
>>143518547
life would be marginally better. Would be cool if after buying the book it started filling in info based on shit you did or how many you killed so that guides didn't feel so mandatory.
>>143518547
It could have been so
>>143518547
haha
Info like how does congalala's pelt smell like?
haha I'm just curious haha
do you think congalala has ever accidentaly swallowed a hunter? haha
I wonder how Congalala smells inside haha do you think he ever gets embarrased after farting?
>>143518852
>8-4 actually doing something good after they've censored games like Fire Emblem
I refuse to believe that image is real.
>>143519017
8-4 did fantastic work on 3rd gen, for starts.

This should've been in the OP a long time ago
>>143519017
The localization director (andrew alfonso) did a whole presentation about it
>>143519178
>actually know their target audience
>want to do helpful things like make tutorial quests fuck off and give hitzone charts
How the hell are these the same guys who thought Fire Emblem was played by children and thus censored it?
>>143518852
>Monster hunter giving info about how the game works..
YES.
Holy shit, how are we even supossed to play monster hunter without Kiranico/Wiki/dex/gamefaqs/expensive gaming guides.?
>>143519076
Honestly just been waiting for it to actually come out since it's more exciting actually being able to use it.
>>143518852
No, but Hunter's notes should get more than 1 page per monster that give additional info like hitzones and small stories about them similar to MHFU's books by the bed.
Have requirements for each page that include
>specific quest/request
>capturing it
>hunting the sub
ect
Does Generations have online multiplayer? I heard somewhere that a recent MH on 3ds only had offline multiplayer.
>>143520347
You heard wrong, casual.
>>143520347
mhgen does have multiplayer I think you're talking about 3ultimate which only had lan on 3ds
>>143520504
Thanks, obese fedoralord.
>>143521140
No problem, shitter.
FU tigrex is fucking bullshit
>that tail hitbox on his charge

No shit it is not recent, that's why he's been told he heard wrong-

Why do they think slapping AoE on everything makes it fun and challenging?

The WoW legion beta is looking great
I want rock steady to be a good skill again!
When can I start playing online without being seen as a shitter, at which armor/weapon tier?
>>143526661
its usually agreed that caravan deviljho is a good point to start doing online since you should hopefully have decent gear by then and also have an idea of how to play your weapon
>>143526816
By Caravan Jhowho is frenziedthe player is very close to the end of the story anyway, so they might as well wrap it up.
>>143526661
you finish the master's test
>>143527623
He can't even do the Master's Test without ranking up in Guild
Same goes for the Caravaneer's Challenge
Wow, hunter! Fighting that big monster sure looks exhausting! I bet you'd like to take a nap!
What is the best weapon to solo black gravios with? I hate this thing so much.I can definitely solo it but I am not having fun doing so trying to get another pallium
>>143528350
High water + Water Attack+3
if not, High Dragon + Dragon Attack+3 (weaker since only the belly is weak to dragon, unlike water and the legs)
>>143524704
Is that Stories?
>>143528492
No, I think it's one of those Felyne Village games.
>>143528350
Water CB with Guard Up if you have no shame. If you don't have Watatsumi (Dah'ren) or Maximinsect (Seltas), surely you have Ceadeus Regalia at least, right? When Naked & Afraid is done it's like one of the easiest Rarity 10 weapons to obtain.
Alternatively, HBG with no limiter that supports Pierce S Lv3.
>>143528350
> Use Memeruin Baguette + partbreaker

beating him completely takes too long, did this and got my pallium in like 10 tries which took probably 15 minutes.
>>143528350
A rapid fire water lbg.
Fuck Black Blos.
>try to make a new set for the shiny new weapon
>for the love of god can't get a halfway decent looking set with the skills I want
>monster flies 3 areas away to eat
>>143529717
Are you using advanced search? You can single out the uglier pieces that barely have higher defense than another piece with mostly the same essential skills and slots.
>>143530170
Yeah I know.
That clownsuit is the best looking one to give you an idea of how horrible the rest of it is.
The best thing I can do right now is farm charms I guess.
>>143530084
>It's an expedition where the monster can't fight between the second and third areas, and has to go between the first and fourth
>>143530296
What skills, might I ask?
Sometimes you gotta pray that the pigment selection actually does wonders for your armor, too.
>>143530597
Sharpness +1
Razor Sharp
Horn Maestro
Evade Extender
Bombardier
It is for the Teostra Orpheée.
I love how it sounds.
Grisdrum with awaken is probably a better blast HH
>>143525923
Preach.
>>143530751
Ditch Bombardier and Evade Extender and you're good.
>>143528140
What's your point?
>>143530887
Guess I could ditch Bombardier.
Don't like playing HH without Evade Extender though
>>143530991
Why? You walk as fast as you move with EE, besides it's as hard as awaken to get on a good set, you won't have good looking gear with it.
how the fuck did evade extender on HH become a trend
how did it become a common thought that the weapon with the highest unsheathed movement speed needs a mobility skill
>>143531119
I am just used to the positioning I guess.
You evade so much with the HH.
>>143531605
No..? XA wait XA is the combo, you only evade if you fuck up and don't input the idle XA but the moving SA.
>>143530751
>Grisdrum with awaken is probably a better blast HH
One guy in the previous thread was telling me this and suggested I dropped S+1 to get Awaken for it because of the fuckhuge white and abysmal purple. Fair enough too.
But someone please tell me how well Species-confused Magala stuff reacts to pigments because this is getting kinda ridiculous.
>>143531549
Because you rarely ever put the weapon away.
Try it sometimes instead of just looking at how HH works. Seriously try a set with Maqam sedition and tell me it is not amazing with Evade Extender.
>>143531693
You evade after every single song if you aren't stupid.
Because of all those extra frames.
>>143531818
>You need EE to cancel attacks
>>143531709
>Fast unsheathed speed
>"But you dont sheathe!"
>>143531707
I just made the female chest to test it. Pigment just changes the lines on the front of the body
>>143531993
>>You need EE to cancel attacks
Never said that.
But the anon said you don't evade much with a HH.
You fucking do.
Especially if you play it aggressive. Which you should.
>>Fast unsheathed speed
>>"But you dont sheathe!"
I do not understand how rare sheathing means you don't evade.
You move fast on the field. With EE your positions is even better.
You are saying you are already fast enough and you don't need it right? Is that the argument.
I am saying that is stupid.
Its like saying GS does a lot of damage therefore you don't need really AuL
You focus on the things the weapon already does well and make it great.
>>143532021
Not even the wings either?
That's a shame since I remember the high rank Gore armor being drastically changed by pigment, I used it with white and used the prance gesture to look like some kind of stupid moth with the flaps of cloth on the arms and all
Would you befriend a Tama?
>>143532352
Nope, didn't notice any change on the wings front or back
>>143532367
I'd like to go hunting with Tama!
>>143532309
Nope, it's like saying GS has shit mobility thus it needs EE.
It's pointless to put EE on most weapons because you actually use the rolls to reposition, with EE you move too far, and it's even more pointless on HH since walk even faster than all the other weapons, fast enough to dodge things by walking out of the way.
When you actually need to dodge you'll be using iframes, not distance.
>>143532538
Tama is not for hunting, Tama is for petting.I did that edit too, it makes me happy it's still being used.
>>143532568
Do you actually use the HH?
It really sounds mostly theoretical with you harping on about the fast movement.
>>143532739
Yes I do, and I tried EE on it and it's a hindrance more than anything, without it you can stick close to the monster and you don't need to move too much to hit it.
Crossposting from /v/ buyfag thread
new MH figs incoming
Kirin sluts confirmed, other hunter set they will be putting out is Kaiser
Also klepto cats, reg cats and even the Ace Palico apparently
>>143532721
You wouldn't want Tama help you hunt? There's time for petting too.I think I'm the only one who actually reposts that image.
>>143532858
alright I'll give it a chance.
But for the magam sedition specifically I tried without EE and it is just shit.
>>143532951
where can i pre-order the kirin slut?
>>143532951
Is that final? That pose is awfully boring and it looks stiff
>>143533083
It's a proto sculpt, it will get articultation, and Revos are super poseable
>>143533065
Dunno, but I would keep an eye out for pre orders because I bet it 's going to sell out faster than a carried frenchy carts on a 140
>>143532986
Because Tama's only job is to look cute.Well, it's good to know someone likes it enough to repost it.
I just bought a power save so that I can have a female character with g rank items without having to fight my way through to g rank again. But I still feel like im going to cheat myself out of th mh experience even though I have already started endgame. What do you guys think about this?
>>143534943
free yourself from the RNG
>>143535043
Haha
just droped my 3ds and now it keeps randomly turning off, while im saving up for another should i play frontier G or online?
wake up /mhg/, it's real hunter hours!
>>143532436
Well shit
That said, any other weapons that benefit from Awaken and don't really need S+1?
>>143537035
ara ara hunter-kun~
>>143536956
>REAL NARGA HOURS WHO UP
>>143537268
zzzzzzzzzz...
>>143536956
>Tama will never wash your mouth out with soap
When you're having a hard time getting a rare, do you like to do the math to see how long ago you should have had it so you can get upset? I do.
>>143537696
I gotta keep killing it
Depending on the monster, if the farming group is constantly failing then it kind of kills some interest
So I just fought Ostgaloa in the gathering hall to get into high rank. It took me about 23 minutes to do solo (95% solo since I dced early on). Is that a normal time? I felt like that took way longer than it should have. But that could be because I'm not entirely sure what to do in the fight as I was mainly focusing on his tentacle heads.
Trying to search up much info on the fight itself doesn't seem very easy to do either as not much about it is really talked about.
>>143538121
Yes, pretty much
first phase he doesn't expose his weakpoint much and you are stuck fucking around with his Hydras
>>143538232
Doesn't sound like something I'd want to farm alone at all then unfortunately. He seems to give decent sharpness weapons.
>>143538121
i can do it in 10 minutes with a slightly optimized setup
you really just need to be super aggressive, his tentacles are massive weakpoints and his mouth and rainbow spot are even bigger weakpoints.
save the ballista binders for his second phase. attack his tentacles until the blue around his mouth is gone and then attack the mouth until he falls down, then give the rainbow spot everything you've got.
>>143538839
>rainbow spot
I was doing the urgent that lead into high rank, I don't think I had that form/phase.
>>143538996
oh, well.
the spot can still be damaged in phase 1 i think, if you manage to kill both tentacles before he respawns them. he'll slump over and you can run around to it.
pierce HBG or boomerang nyanters absolutely obliterate him in both forms, if you have access to one of those.
>>143539447
I did killed both tentacles and he did fall or something, but he didn't reveal a weak spot (but I just may have not looked for it). I was using aerial DB from when I was doing HR3.
>>143539517
>aerial
yeah aerial is really not conducive to good kill times in general.
>>143539629
Yeah it was more for fun on the previous hunts. Well, I'll probably just take a break from Ostgaloa.
Does having rainbow armor in 4U mean you're a pro?
>>143539684
Not really.
Is there anything cuter than her ?

Should I continue playing FU or move onto 3U? If 3U,Wii U or 3DS?
>>143540228
Move on to P3rd instead.
>>143540228
Do you want to play 3U and already have it? then you know the answer.
>>143540228
It depends if you want performance or online
3U N3ds you can get do vid related
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NF4aHnWp7Y
but it has no online unless if you own a Wii U
>>143528579
Is it wrong to feel romantically attracted to Rathalos?
>>143540630
No, i too want to rape those faggots.
>>143517908
hey fellow hunters, I was just wondering if you could give me some tips on dual blades usage.
I'm good at taking a lot of the heat and attention from the monster and using evasive manuvers to come out unscathed. While also getting a good ammount of burst damage when I see an opening with a good combo but I feel like I could be doing more to help the team out. What do?
>>143539684
Not really, it means you're a completionist though.
>Still can't figure out what fucking quest is missing to fully complete G3
That silver check taunts me. I'm pretty sure I have to do every interception in the Battlequarters quest to get 100% but I don't remember which ones I did already so I don't know which one I'm missing.
>>143540770
>>143539684
I'm glad I almost never actually see any glowing neon jackasses online. Anyone who cares enough to put in the effort to unlock it is probably smart enough to realize that it looks stupid on almost everything.
>>143540374
Wonder if the same trick will work for Cross since they fucked it up and made it run 30 with dips again.
I mean, seriously, they got the engine running at 60 FPS near constantly, even with 4 other people on screen and everything exploding but they shit that away in Cross. WHY? 60 FPS would have made all the new fancy particles and effects even cooler.
>>143540902
I think it still works but you can't go past 30FPS, only reduce the dippage.
>>143540958
So it's hardcapped at 30, fug
MGS3 runs so nice with the N3DS mode patch and so do all the other games that chug
>>143519017
>>143519367It is played mostly by children in NA.
>>143540902
>I mean, seriously, they got the engine running at 60 FPS near constantly, even with 4 other people on screen and everything exploding
Was there a game after 4G/U and before MHX I didn't know about? 4U dips constantly on N3DS even in singleplayer.
>>143541623
install ntr man and raise the clock speed, its as easy as running a .cia
>>143541721
>they got the engine running at 60 fps near constantly
>you just need to hack your system to make it work
uh huh.
>>143541721
4U already runs in N3DS-enhanced mode, unless you're talking about another NTR plugin I've not heard of, the "overclock" plugin won't do jack.
>>143541873
eat a dick cunt i was just trying to help you since you were bitching to the other bloke about your frame rate drops
>>143518547
Monster pages really should have more information. Especially their drops and the rates, that's such an important part of the game and everyone playing it up until now has had to rely on the internet to find out quickly where to get what they need. Just put that info in the game. Same for gatherable items but putting the rates for each node would be a bitch. They could just have an info page for every zone and then a list of every item that can be gathered in that zone for each rank range.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_0sZJyCArfg
Can we put down this 60fps meme please?
>>143518547
Nah, better just leave them as useless thrash and sprinkle some stars on it or some shit.
>>143542581
nope this general is full of artists and kids so good luck with changing their minds, even in the most minute of ways.
>>143539684
Nah, just means you're not irredeemable garbage and you know how to combine farcasters. It means less now that people can easily blow through it in G rank gear. They should have moved it to The Master's Test instead. It looks really awful on just about everything. Looks okay on the star knight cape, other than that it's pretty ugly unless the spot is some really small detail like the gem on the diablos helms.
3U or 4U?
>>143543049
FU :^)
>>143543049
I honestly enjoyed 3U's endgame more, and it didn't have fucking ledges, but it's dead as fuck and I'm pretty much done with the game.
>>143543049
4U. As much as people like to complain about ledges and mounting it's way way better than the disgustingly awful underwater garbage in 3U. However 3U has better maps and some neat monsters. If you want a good bit of what 3U has to offer without the underwater nonsense then Portable 3rd is good. It doesn't have as many monsters but it has the maps without underwater.
>>143525575
That is the most stylin' kill i've seen.
>>143521346
He's sluggish as fuck. Only his rage mode is scary, he gains quadruple speed and quintuple damage.
>>143543820
>Only his rage mode is scary
So you mean the state he's in 90% of the time?
>>143543967
>90%
Looks more like 60% to me.
>>143544069
It's been a while, and the majority of my memories are of Land of Tremors, so I might be wrong.
It still feels like Tiggy spends most of its time being pissed at everything.
>>143544182
>Land of Tremors
I pussied out and haven't even tried that one yet.
Is there a reason to use any element but blast?
>>143544280
Use a Farcaster and try and deal as much damage to the Tigrex in area 1 as possible.
Once they meet up they're gonna be BFFs and dungbombs don't do shit in FU (well, they work like a flash on Khezu, but that's not what you want).
>>143544280
>Ran so many players through Land of Tremors I eventually got to the point where I could handle both Tigrexes at once with relative ease
Reliably doing the Tigrex Roll was so damn nice.
>>143540770Why only gay crops? Honest question
Give me back my Tri Lance already. God fucking damn it, that was the most fun weapon ever, you could've made it a Style in Cross but nooooo
>>143544870

>>143544870

p.good
what type of charcoal did you use?
>>143525575
Did the barrel even do anything?
>>143547374
To start the aerial dodge I assume since you need to roll an "attack" to activate it.
>>143544329
Diminishing returns, the longer it takes the less effective you become. Element is the better choice in the long run. It doesn't really matter though, the time difference isn't going to be so drastic that it makes a ton of difference in a normal hunt. Not everything has some insane weakness like gravios where water is basically anitmatter to it and rapes the shit out of it better than anything else.

You're too late. Try HotS or something, it's just more comfy.
>>143547921
Its mobafags.
Aren't they infamous for being the biggest cancer in all of vidya?
The fuck were you expecting?
Any game that has any sort of competitive gameplay will always be nothing but cancer.
If MH had pvp like so many people suggest this general would be no better than any moba or dark souls or whatever.
>>143548009
only going to play so the faggots in school will be happy that i play with them and then mabey i can use that as leverage to make them play monster hunter
>>143547921
MinMaxers are the cancer killing MH, real men go in blind with whichever weapon they feel like using and figure shit out on their own.
Note that this only applies to single player, multiplayer is a whole tumor on its own.
>>143548092
what grade are you in
>>143548092
Why in the world would you want to play mh with mobafags?
>>143548092
No you will not and you're stupid for playing games to impress people.

Fuck off blogfaggot
>>143548098
>not fucking around on your own for a bit
>getting to multiplayer then learning how to min/max your favorite weapon
>>143548065
I don't think I could stand MH if it had a built in PvP system.
At least with speedhunting it stays its own thing that you can ignore or pay attention to at your own volition.
Weapon wars would go nuclear.
>>143548220
>impress
dude stop projecting

>>143548160
tafe dunno what all you guys call it, im studying an advanced diploma [/spoiler}in fucking your mother
>>143548243
Just imagine them balancing the weapons around pvp.
In fact we actually don't have to imagine it at all.
We could just look at souls general as the closest example to Monster Hunter with PvP
One of the worst generals on /vg/.
>>143548413
That's called "flunked out of highschool." You're under 18, right?

No way you are studying anything.

>>143548710
Because they only use GS
>>143548710
It draws a little fast. It should have a slower draw.
You can play it pretty strong and risk free with Quick Sheath.
>>143548473
Yeah better post monster porn than falling into the degeneracy of arguing about weapon balance.... oh wait
>>143549417
Yes actually
This place is far from perfect but that is nothing compared to pvp cancer.
>>143549464
By that logic in the spirit of preserving the sanctity of 4chan no game ever should have pvp. Let's just delve into speedrunning rng cancer instead.
>>143549603
No.
That is not what I am saying.
I am saying MH should never be balanced around pvp and there should be no pvp.
The threads on 4chan being absolute dogshit is just an extra that comes with it.
>>143548243
>the worst weapons for actually hunting in 4U would be the strongest in pvp, and vice versa apart from IG being high tier and HBG being top tiergodtier would be GL and SA though
>>143549690
Well it will be the first ever weapon balancing in the series.

He has to use the stationary infinite (XA in 4U, XX, in X/Gen) since he loses out on the double slash due to Striker.
I'm kind of pissed about SA actually, I like the weapon but I wish there was more to it.
>>143550989
It needs to be reworked with more incentive to actually switch between the two modes. Just remove the sword gauge and have each mode buff the other for certain amounts of hits, amount of time, maybe they power each other up for enhanced movesets and you have to keep switching as you fight to maintain it. Just something, anything other than constant sword mode. It's so fucking boring.

oh
I've been using swaxe every installment since MH3 and i think it's time to move on and try something else, mainly because as >>143551142
said it looks fucking boring atm. I might try out DB since I'm familiar with sidesteps already, but I dont feel like chugging juices every hunt.
>>143551323
CB, my friend
you're forced to use both modes, especially in X
>>143544405

Top kek, you don't need it at all.
And you don't often have to reposition diligently with side dashes, you move a lot and have a good range with spin2win.
>>143552608
4U is also more popular among kids. Why do you think pubs are so shitty, ignorant and absolutely selfish?
>>143552667
You make it sound like pubs weren't always retarded.
>>143551142
Frontier has some interesting...liberties taken in regards to Swaxe. Don't know the entire moveset but one of the styles at least can power up axe mode and there's also some parrying stuff.
Axe and sword both need more moves that help define their own roles and encourage frequent switching between them, so it's not just about pressing the same fucking buttons with the occasional side hop; as they are now the two modes have some really simple movesets. Something also has to be done about power phials practically always being the definitive one to have.
If it weren't for the quickdial AEDs and mashable shield thrusts I'd say CB would've done a reasonable job at defining its modes in 4U, too bad it gained a shit rep. I have no idea how it plays like in MHX/Gen apart from hearing Guild sucking massive dicks. Bushido/Adept on paper sounds nice though, just guardpointing under a different name when the situation calls. Haven't heard shit about the arts either, guess I should look up speedruns
>>143551323
>3rd gen
Going from 4U to 3U recently, SA just feels stupid boring and also doesn't have as many extras like the roll into axe upswing or the sword double slash and the sword > axe morph you can after that in 4th gen, and yet it's considered quite powerful. So what fucked it over in 4U, weapon powercreep?
>>143552608
Look around you.
>>143552940
SA was always a boring "fill all niches" weapon like the CB.
>>143551142
How about just make it like charge Blade and give it actual combos from Axe mode into Sword Mode's phial burst.
Also, instead of making the gauge fill over time make it start at 0 and build up from Axe hits.
I thought 4U started to get the idea of what SA should be when they added the powerful End-combo at the end of the Axe Infinite

You have to break the belly to sub quest out.
>>143529521
How do you more consistently not get hit by his fart clouds when he is walking and shooting lasers?
>>143552940
The three Swax styles are split between third gen moveset + some nice extras for Earth, enhanced axe and mobility/evasion on Heaven, then enhanced sword and defense on Storm.No one uses Earth style.
I use more Heaven personally, and having that fade slash with iframes at your beck and call is glorious, though I should set up something to work with Storm as well as get better with the parry.
>>143553213
>LBG
>fart clouds
I don't think I've ever gotten hit by the clouds when LBGing. Beams, charges, rolls, sure. But the clouds? Not really.
Stay farther away?
I mean, elemental ammo doesn't have a sweet spot (it technically does, but only for the insignificant raw damage, IIRC), so as long as you hit the right spots (and by right spot I mean the belly) you're doing good damage.
Battalion Strafer with Water+3, Earplugs, and probably Partbreaker due to Helios/Selene stuff, should serve you well. Go for Extender if you really need it, otherwise just stack more raw boosts.

Did he just load phials from Sword and go into Axe Discharge 1?
>>143553913
>element Discharge 1:
Consumes 1 phial. A small slash to the down right, deals one explosion. This move is alright. As you can guess it wouldn't be cost effective to use it more often than necessary. Notably it is available to you by pressing A immediately after a guard point, if you want to start that combo. That scenario doesn't come up often, but even pros use it once in a blue moon if the monster is about to do a huge backhop and there's no time for anything else.
>>143553887
The only one memeing here is you.
>>143554456
>This is apparently in 4U as well
How the fuck did I not notice this
I usually X or XA after loading
>>143554456
You can go from Discharge 1 to AED
>>143553526
So when I'm getting hit by those it is because it also walks towards you at the same time. So I'm obviously doing something wrong I just don't really understand what.
>>143555085
Don't be afraid to sheathe your LBG, it's got one of the fastest sheathe animations in the game and you're obviously more mobile when your weapon isn't out.
Get a feel for the range of its farts and ensure that you're never that close to Black Gravios. There's no real advantage to you being that close anyway. Also take into account that the farts are always after a beam, so you do accidentally time a roll badly or something.
Once it starts doing that attack, try to circle around Black Gravy. I'm pretty sure it cancels the attack if you're behind it.
And again, Evade Extender (or Peak Performance) might come in handy.
>>143518547
not sure if it was present in all the series books on him, but I didn't know until I read his 3U book that you could get plesioth out of the water by using a frog instead of enraging him with a sonic bomb
>>143555536
I guess I don't sheathe very often.
>>143555962
Doesn't someone in the village say something about Plesioth and frogs? One of those flavour texts.
Might even be the Guild Sweetheart.
>>143555962
All of them usually have a "He really likes frogs" line somewhere in them.
I know Gobul had one too.
>>143552608
Half you fucking morons aren't even out of highschool yet, so I'm gonna say /mhg/.
so I found out a while back that X has the same portable 3rd system where handicraft has two levels (extend and increase) as opposed to the regular skill system. Do the weapons in X accommodate this change by having little pieces of white/purple sharpness?
>>143556583
yes and it doesn't matter because the only weapons you will ever use already have maxed out sharpness
>>143556981
Except for the Tama weapons you'll make in order to farm the Ember weapons. After that, handicraft is pointless.
>>143557239
>Tama weapons
It's better to go ice
>>143557286
Whatever Ember Glavenus is weak against. I just made Tempest shit and called it a day.
>>143555962
It's in FU as well.
There are other tips, like gypceros immunue to shock traps or chickens not liking noise.
>>143554456
it's the fastest way to charge your shield outside of a perfect guard in X
>>143556583
P3rd didn't have two levels of Handicraft, it just had Sharpness+1 as a 15 point skill.
>>143556981
this meme never gets old
>>143553213
You should be nowhere near gravios when he's farting. You can also easily dodge lasers due to the shitty terrain, just watch his head so you know how he's going to fire.
Bring combos but you should be able to break the belly in a full clip.

Do any of the emulatable MonHuns that can be co-op'd actually work when connecting from say Europe to Australia? Been trying to get a friend into MonHun but they don't own a 3DS currently and they highly like the idea of co-op huntin' but 250-300 ping has been fucking us over.
>>143566746
I was doing P3rd pretty well between West Cost US/South America/Australia with Hamachii.
Really depends on the level of shitternet you'll be dealing with.

I cannot contain my rage. The Seltas' flying attack didn't even knock me down properly so it could do it twice in a row without me having any invulnerability for it.
>>143566962
We couldn't get it working with Hamachi and opted for an evolve room that was already hosted and all we got was constant break away from party sadly. Guess I'll have to wait till he buys a 3DS.
>>143565496
>the last console monster hunter title
3G? Was out in Japan for several months before our March release.
>>143566746
I'm a kiwifag and I've been playing with Europeans on 4U just fine for the most part as far as connection quality goes. Though not always, when it shits the bed it's mostly when four hunters are involved.
If the netcode is the same I can't imagine emulated FU or P3rd going much wrong

>Lance is the strongest weapon.HOW? I mean they raped it since Tri..unless they un-raped it! What's the deal?Unless they made elemental lances THAT good, because X/Gen doesn't have G-Rank wacky races tier armor for raw lances..
>>143567515
Well I know from experience there should be minimal to no problems on the 3DS itself. But PPSSPP and P3rd seems to be a no go for us.
