Monster Hunter 3 Tri |OT| Animal Cruelty Made Fun

- Start date
Sorry to the guys I was playing with this afternoon/evening. I think my wife was on a mission to keep me from playing more than one quest without interruption. :lol At least I was able to help with a couple Lagis.
I'll be back on around 9 EST. I'll probably help my friend with some 1* and 2* stuff, but if I have more time, I'll be looking for help with Gigginox and Uragaan, and then probably Jhen.
Is there a resource anywhere that lists the actual skill points on each piece of armor? The only thing I see on the wiki is what skills you get from each full set.

If you're worried about typing too slow, make custom predefined shouts. On the classic controller you press - - (to get the chat) and then R to get the shouts. You can change these shouts in the in-game options (3rd tab: online). I recommend you get at least these shouts:Evilink said:
"Hi, no keyboard so I type slow."
"Well done!"
"Ready for capture!"
"Yes"
"No"
"Hold on... typing something..."
"Come to me."
"Good hunt!"
"Ouch, you keep hitting me..." (use for both monster & teammates)
Thanks, posted :lolAnomarad said:
cheers faust and bosch 
that was a really good session tonight. Cant believe that just as the hr requirement for rnak up start getting higher and higher, the points you are rewared with go DOWN! I thought id be clever and stick with the high reward 3* quests, only to find that your points reward is now getting reduced!
the grind up to 40 is going to be a long one, although the monster dont seem nearly as hard to defeat as I thought they would be

It depends on luck really. I wanted a charm with evade +7 for the japanese ver but after 700hrs I never even get one so I couldn't care less and settle for another armor combination instead. Try to be versatile in your armor combination. My experienced hunting buddy had like 10 over clever combinations at HR30 for different situation and playing style. He is a better armor planner than me.Soneet said:

Alright guys, I'm a bit discouraged.
I'm HR 50 and ready for my Altereon urgent. After about 20 minutes of searching for a group I finally hook up with 4 other HR50 guys. I do the quest for the first time with them and holy crap...... He ran me out of all my Herbs, Potions, Mega Potions, Max Potions, Ancient Potion, and managed to kill me once. One of the other party members died twice and we lost.
Perhaps it's my Barioth+ armor and it's negative fire resistance, who knows. I don't get hit much by his fire shot, it's that damn insta-turn-slap that ruins me.
I have never felt so defeated in MH before. After we tried it once more I really questioned if I have the skill level to take this guy down. Is it normal for this guy to make you feel this way?
I guess my biggest worry is that I want to learn how to do him properly with my LS, but when playing with random people I am always so self-conscious about my performance. I don't want to feel like I'm a dead weight to a team of people that know what they are doing.

Playing with a non blocking weapon does make the fight considerably more difficult. My guess would be to try staying behind it, and well, get away before he does his bitch slap, sometimes it's better to miss out on some attacks.RuneFactoryFanboy said:
Also, count on your team's lifepowders
If you like, GAF servers probably won't give you crap, although I don't think there are HR1 hanging around. I didn't jump in until I beat Lagiacrus, but Jaggi might still be a bit to early. Since you'll ruin some monsters.Y2Kev said:
Well if you jump in, give me a call, I'm ACE and I'll gladly help.
EDIT: I jumped in WAY too late.
Well, will I need help? Are the quests more difficult or something? I thought they were just the same quests with the possibility to scale to multiple players.Boney said:
I've only once played any Mohun with another person. I feel like I've always been missing something.
Well that's going to be a problem as a SA user. I guess it's time to get back to ol' SnS for this mission. I guess I'll go back to being a support user online with my Great Baggi SnS. Or is it possible get a Jho Gem before Alatreon?Boney said:Playing with a non blocking weapon does make the fight considerably more difficult.

Well monsters are buffed up and tailored around 4 people, it doesn't matter if it's just 1 doing the quest. So you'll definately need help.Y2Kev said:
You can get Joe gems before that since he appears in almost every high rank mission. Although I still haven't gotten one so don't count on it.PounchEnvy said:
But try to do it with the SA, it must be really fulfilling. Even today we helped Mars and he used a LS and we beat it first try. Just get a good group and you'll be fine. It's way more fun to do this stuff with people who are just as clueless as you though :lol
EDIT: Disconected guys, don't think I´m bitter because a Barroth killed us.
That reminds me. When I first encountered Cha-cha I remember wondering "so, where is the downside? This guy just takes free hits for me?". Then I see him gathering items sometimes and think "Oh, ok, so he takes items sometimes as a form of payment. I can deal with that". And then I find out even later that you can just talk to him and he'll give you everything he has collected. :lol
That little dude is awesome.
That little dude is awesome.
Pretty unfortunate that my period of learning the longsword and playing offline only for a while coincides with his disappearance. Fuck this powderstone quest... "You have dropped the powderstone. You have fainted." Joy...
Wow, I want to know who thought it was a good idea to put this quest in a game about hunting monsters.
Anyone want to share the "trick" to it, pretty please? I just want my cha-cha back so I can move on with my life. :-[

With 150 health and megadash juice (or something, the one that lets you run without depleting stamina), you can make it to the finish line with about a 1/4 of your health left. Maybe there's some fire resist that helps as well? But just 150 health+no stamina loss should be enough to do it.Hawkian said:

Along with max health+dash juice I use a set of Loc-Lac armor for its pro transporter skill for quests like that. Makes it much less annoying.
It's doable with 140 health and no special items or skills, but it's not easy (or fun). By far the biggest danger is getting hit on the way back... Altaroth, Rhenoplos, Uraktor, and oh look, and Uragaan... Took 6 tries.
Gotta call it a night unfortunately... Tonight on monster hunter, I forged a long sword from the shredded wings of dragons, killed a great dinosaur and a deceitful wyvern with it, and then spent two hours carrying hot rocks toward a box. :'(

Yeah, the mellower enemies in Tri makes it so much easier. Speaking of which I need to try another one of those sometime to test out my Transporter +10 talisman. Coincidentally enough I got it by mining a charm during the powderstone mission. Talk about the perfect reward.Tenbatsu said:
Transporter? It makes you run faster when carrying eggs and powderstones. It's really noticeable too. It's not that fast but I always wear the Loc Lac gear for these missions and I didn't wear them once and I was really surprised how much I missed the gear. The boots do look really comfy I can see why you can move faster in them.Hawkian said:
I think I got a plate as well. :lolBoney said:

Buying a hunter set (for the autotracker skill) and gemming in transporter is another way to go.Hawkian said:
