To see thems you gots to look!!

So i fought the bird thingy with the red air pocket thing, the one that calls other fuckers to fuck you up. The one that was in the demo, i think, maybe? Felt like vintage MH. The thing moved a little bit like a kutku, but with a lot of other moves thrown in there. Anyways, he took a long ass time to go down (45/50minutes). Ran out of cool aid, started losing health pretty bad... started to be short on potions and megapotions... and then... i saw the limp...

WHO'S LAUGHING NOW FUCKER??!,?? NOT U, THAT'S WHO'S LAUGHING!!!!

Edit: Oh snap, i need to come up with a "keikaku"!!

Well, if you read the quest description the guy is basically looking for fossils, so that should tell us something about where they're found.

Can't say I wouldn't have had problems finding them, though. I already knew about the quest from this thread by the time I got around to it. :p

Man, my eyes are burning. I would want to continue playing but my eyes say no.

By the way; has the official EU server been decided yet?

After about six hours worth of playtime I can safely say that I'm hooked. What a game. It's really a shame that I did not have a chance to seriously play Mon Hun games before Tri, but I'm sure I wont miss any other game this game series will produce. :0

I'm also really happy to have bought this game. As a first timer to the franchise, it's hard to know what to expect even with the demo. Thankfully, its one of the most enjoyable games I've played.

- Managed to do the level 2 capture Great Jaggi quest on first try.

-Recently got to level 3 quests (beat that quest where you have to kill 6 of those rhino-like dinosaurs) and have full Great Jaggi armor and weapon set. The only down side is that the sword and shield needs to be constantly sharpened with a wetstone.

- Found Cha Cha and what a strange little guy he is.

So can someone explain the HR system in this game to me? The other games were different obviously but I don't really understand why I cant go beyond hr 1 level quests in the guild hall, and yet I am hr 8 or something. I have done all but one quest in the 1* guild hall, and I THINK the only urgent that I got, I did it and still didn't get 2* quests.

I say I THINK because after I finished it, it said the same quest as event, but didn't say completed. Maybe I read it wrong? maybe it was always event, but either way I should have an urgent by now. I do more quests and the thing tells me I am not eligible for an hr lv up, so someone clear this up for me please.

Is there a way to inspect players with out having to stand right next to them? I can't seem to find anything in the menus, I am almost 100% positive you could in MH1.

I spent the afternoon making my Rhenoplos armor set. I'm now ready for Peco! I'm a bit annoyed that there are no leggings in the set so I settled for those Loc Lac slipper-things. :lol

Didn't have a lot of time to play today but I almost have all mah Jaggi armor. I killed queropeco (OMG, I can't spell any of these monsters' names!) on the first try. Much easier than in the demo and thankfully I only had the stupid great jaggi to deal with.

I'm reeeally dreading water battles =( Like you don't.even.know =(

Does anyone know where to get some of the paintberry stuff? I forgot where it is... guess I'll check the wiki.

Still haven't finished the tutorial parts yet (baby Jaggis are my bitches!), but I've only had a few hours to put into it yet. Hoping I'll be able to play a bunch this weekend.

I like how the blacksmith's reward for giving him iron ore was... telling you how to upgrade stuff. And in doing so, took the material I would have used to upgrade my lame Hunter's Knife.

I seem to be accumulating a good amount of "rarer" crap as I go - couple different kinds of mushrooms in particular. Is there any way to know what is worth selling for cash and what you should be hanging onto for future upgrades/combinations? For example, if something says "you should sell this for money!" am I going to hate myself for selling it a few hours later?

Items come very easy in this game (especially the basic stuff since you can go into the forest and free-roam at any time), so there's no reason to worry too terribly much. The only stuff you should consider not selling right away are animal parts since they're all used in some kind of equipment creation in one way or another. You do get a list of each part that they take as soon as you find one requirement for them, so you can judge whether or not it's something you can use.

Oh, that's good to know. And yeah, I'm going to have 10 well-done steaks and 10 mega-potions ready before I need to use one of them, so I probably won't worry myself too much with resource-type items.

I apologize if this has been said a bunch before but- I'm about 13 hours in and so far I've only taken down 2 bosses! Makes me laugh! This game is too awesome.:D

Got the unique mushroom quest! Though I did not get any of the other mushrooms. MH is soo broken sometimes.

Also online is so much tougher then offline compared to MHFU. I didn't expect that.

hiro... ripe mushrooms? are in the bugs by the mushrooms you have to wait til they eat the shrooms and their belly's turn a different color (be a sparkly thing on ground


the other mushroom drops from the herbivores when they do the same thing

So with all my excitement going around this game, I didn't realize that I accidentally ordered two copies of this game from Amazon. Stupid me.

I don't know if it's difficult or not to find a copy of this game with the classic controller pro but I now have an extra one. I'd figured I might drop a note here to see if anyone wants to buy it off me instead of returning it to Amazon. 60 bucks straight for the unopened box. I lose five bucks either way.

PM me if you're in nyc and you're interested.

also how does bowgun weight affect you?
Click to expand...
A weight of 29 and below will be a light bow (able to side step after firing), 30 - 70 will be a middle bow (able to roll after firing) and 70 up will be a heavy bow.

I was gonna give you some of my stuff but for some reason the menu option wasn't showing up. Does it only show up when you're at a city gate or something? I know I've seen "Give" before.

You can only give item rare 3 or below.

:/ I took out the bugs a few times and only got garbage. I harvested some Choice Mushrooms normally so I figured it was just harder to find the Ripe. Oh well, at least I finished a quest!

Me and my buddy just got this game today and have played for about 5 hours after seeing the videos and reviews of it, we have never played one before. Started off online, then got to kill the great Jaggi quest and have died maybe close to 8 times. We're not really feeling this game, but im not sure if its just our general lack of understanding but it is getting really frustrating. So any pointers? Are we going at this game completely wrong?
