So when July rolls around and MH Gen comes out, I'm gonna pick up lance again. Sure shit, there will be some monsters I can't tackle with it, so I'll need a backup weapon that's not cheap, but also not hard. Suggestions from people who've played MHX?

I assume you mean for it to be a general purpose SnS build. In which case neither--go with true ruiner or awakened reigning grissword. High raw and miles of white without needing any sharpness skills makes up for not having any practical level of purple, but awaken can hurt its case if you don't have any charms for it.

Servers are up but the translation devs don't recommend enabling the patch until they look through the changes and release a new version in the next few days.

If you want the next quest to unlock whatever monster you need you have to visit people in the villages to get it.

This game is fucking triggering me.

Can someone please explain why I can't break the gypceros' head?

I'm wailing on it with the charge blade, over and over getting AEDs and ultra AEDs on it's head, mounting it and just going to fucking down on this bitch's face, but he always dies before I break the head, and never complete the subquest/get his head as a drop.

What the fuck am I doing wrong?
>>
>>144716985
Use a blast weapon or partbreaker. Or use a weaker weapon so it doesn't die as fast
>>
>>144716985
you can try to go out of your way to ensure that every attack hits the head

alternatively, try a different weapon with more focused attacks, like lance or GS
>>
>>144717517
What's the best GS I can make atm if I just unlocked tier 4 quests in main story? Only done a small number of guild quests for farming velocidrome or whatever.

I was thinking the reaver one but it says -10% affinity and idk what that does yet

It means you're not ACTUALLY breaking its face.
Even then, the drop chance is only 30%, so you might just be unlucky.
If you really need a specific break, try using CB's axe mode more like as GS/SA, taking quick shots at the body part you want to break. And only after that go ham on the monster.
If you're having problems breaking Gypceros' head before you kill it, you better be prepared when the time coems for you to farm Rajang's horns. You need to break both, and they take up like 90% of the monster's total health, so you have to snipe the head throughout pretty much the whole duration of the fight.
>>
>>144719810
Yeah, but since I'm using the explosive ammo types attack a different part of it. I'll definitely break the head every time, my gear is super overleveled for this. If you want after this I can gear down and we can do some of your key quests.

You can talk to the lady by the big gong behind the eating table to change it without remaking the room. The biggest benefit of listing your room under fishing and 7234 (rage) whilst playing allows anons who aren't browsing the thread to easily join your room. It's also good to check if any /mhg/ rooms are up and joining them (Blanche) if you feel like playing.

>>
>>144720794
I spent like half an hour to an hour subquesting the low rank caravan gypceros (~1min hunt time each) trying to two heads and only got one. I ended up doing that material effect quest for the guaranteed drop for the other one I needed
>>
>>144711083
I've always had that feeling, as well. But only when fighting it on land. Underwater, I think it's the perfect size.

>>144711083
Yes, Lavasioth seems to have the appropriate size Plesioth should have had

Alatreon's animations kind of work for it's size

That seems odd, you should be able to recover that data seeing as you can even transfer data through regions.

>>144727075
I believe the difference is that you have to extract the saves first with a save data manager on your 3ds. I just copied my entire SD card before it got wiped. I've yet to ask a reputable forum though, that's just what /hbg/ told me.

Okay so I went from MHFU to 3rd and I've got a question: how the hell is damage calculated/do I know if a weapon has good raw?

Like seriously, almost all of the true yukumo weapons have 160 raw damage but a hammer has got to deal more damage in a single blow than a SnS.
>>
>>144730368
Display raw has never had anything to do with damage dealt. Different attacks deal different percentages of your true raw. P3rd shows the true raw instead of a meaningless inflated number. It makes comparing between weapon classes easier but casuals found it too difficult to comprehend so it was a one time thing.
Damage is still calculated the same way, but inflated numbers are back in later games.

If you were able to choose at character creation your hunter's handedness, would it make a big difference?
>>
>>144732264
Like a left/right-handed option?

Provided Capcom just inverted the animations, something like Hammer and HH swings would hit at different angles for sure. Maybe HH encores would flip as well? CB might have a different AED angle too.
>>
>>144732264

Yes, actually. Off the top of my head, gunlance upswing would hit to your right instead of your left.
>>
>>144732264
It would certainly be preferable to mix handedness for weapons sharing the head. Though most people don't notice it or if they do it's just subconsciously, monsters are also right- or left-handed, so it could have a non-negligible impact solo with certain monster-weapon matchups. I'd love it in theory as an aesthetic option, but I think in practice most people would still just go lefthanded because either they're kids and new to the series and that's the more cool and unique option or because lefthandedness has been a subtle part of the monster hunter aesthetic for years already.

The fuck? The only hitzone you can reliably hit without bouncing off phantom hitboxes from his head or wings is the very tip of the tail.

He means the attack hitboxes presumably. That's also bullshit, maybe your babby GS's giant fucking arc has trouble not hitting them but that's down to weapon hitboxes and adapting your strategy to your foe.

monster hunter stories looks cute af. any more deets on the gameplay?
>>
>>144743772
If the sharpness of your weapon is blue and above depending on the rank. You still have to fall back to sharpen. They burn through sharpness so damn quickly.

But if you break the legs/belly the fight gets a whole lot easier. With SnS I rely on mounting to break the stomach then just go all out on slapping.

hey just got MH4U pretty experienced in the series but I'd like to do something different

suggest a new weapon type for me to learn on low rank

I'm fairly proficient on most of the classic weapons
>>
>>144757660
which ones aren't you familiar with? Because assuming by classic you mean second gen, that just leaves switchaxe (garbage and unlike other weak weapons only shitters use it), insect glaive and charge blade. In that case use charge blade.

>>144758665
Fun

I find them easier to control too compared to previous games

The weapon itself is pretty good. Hills and ledges everywhere are annoying in practice though unless you're doing GQs or something where you can reliably fight in nice flat areas.

So I always pick a new weapon to try in each MH while also sticking to the first one I ever committed to: LS. I hear LS is pretty heavily improved from 4U to Generations because of the way the meter works. Is there a preferred hunting style for it though? I figured Bushido would be popular, but I think I heard that you can only do the roundslash after a perfect evade? Is that too detrimental or do the pros outweigh that con?
>>
>>144761262

I haven't played MHX but

>I can only do the roundslash after evading in the general vicinity of an attack

or

>I can only do the roundslash after filling up my meter and spending 5 seconds waving my gay sword around draining it, hopefully not getting hit and hopefully having something to hit in front of me when those 5 seconds are up

One sounds much easier than the other.
>>
So; Aerial, Striker, or Guild?
What weapon?
>>
>>144762371
Dual Blades
>BIG BOYS TIER
Striker
>above average
Aerial
>Boring tier
Guild
>Kelbi Bow tier
Adept
>>
>>144761553

But is the perfect evade really that easy to get?
>>
>>144763104

Extremely. The window is enormous.
>>
>>144762371
I was thinking of using HBG, but I don't know what style I should go with, Striker maybe?
>>
>>144763104
I play with a guy who can't evade with Evasion +1, and he can pull them off consistently.
>>
>>144763437
Evade +1 is still kinda tight though

compared to dark souls evade +1 is way tighter timing
>>
>>144763664

Well in that case, I'm sure this has been debated excessively, but I haven't beeb around. How does Bushido/Adept compare to evasion +2?
>>
>>144763664
It's tight 'cuz you're not meant to evade THROUGH attacks.

That said, nobody is really sure yet how many frames is the window for the Adept evade, but I'd wager it's a big window (bigger than normal Evasion+ skills) since it's meant to dodge through attacks, unlike the normal roll.

Never seen anyone really tackle this question, would be nice to know.
>>
>>144766724
>you're not meant to evade through attacks

What other way is there to evade
>>
>>144767279
...away from them? Apart from niche uses, you should focus on positioning instead of forcing your way thru iframes.

What are some super common patterns for certain monsters? Rathian triple charge and G-rank teo cloud->detonate are pretty obvious, but I'm more interested in easily missed ones like Rajang's "side hop, spin, laser" or "short kelbi hop, back hop, spin".

I'm learning to GS Teostra in a g-special guild quest and I'm kind of having trouble safely landing big hits on the head. I'm learning to bait out the directional explosions by standing close to his side instead of circling, but my biggest trouble is with punishing his breath attack. It's a free lvl 3 on the back leg all day, but half of the time I go for the face (approaching on his right side once he starts moving left) I get charged right away even if I go for a lvl 2. What I'm asking is "how do you position yourself to hit the face and how do you follow up to avoid getting charged?'
