Are you at higher level ranks quests yet? The difficulty goes up again.
Finished the level 4 quests.
Any tips on fighting Lagiacrus ?
He kicked my ass when I used the long sword.
I'm not sure what place on his body is best to attack. He's got that tail swipe, coiling attack and that quick lunge move.
Does he have an elemental weakness? Is it fire or something ?
I may try taking on Gigginox first before dealing with Lagiacrus again.

This method seems to have worked for me for the past week.Teknoman said:

Any tips for a gun user? I just picked it up last night, and I am just getting the swing of it. I like the versatility once in a team setup. I also like healing people by shooting them in the face.

I like fighting him with a long sword. I attack him on his chest,Hiltz said:
Unsheathe attack (x), poke (a), slash (x), side slash (x+a+direction away from where he's facing). The last one lets you avoid most of his frontal attacks. The middle slash (x) u can skip if u feel you're short on time. Bash his chest until it breaks. Then bash it some more.
If you wanna play dirty, bring a trap + bombs for when he goes to ground, which he always does once, or so it seems (unless u kill it before!).

So any word on how well/bad this game is doing so far?
Teknoman said:
I was waiting to complete my Gobul set before playing online so my HR is still really low
But of course after I posted that I got them the next two times fighting him and completed the set. I have a remainder 24 gobul fins and 20 gobul spikes after completing the set :lol
Time to play online and hopefully have a better experience.

i'm doing that flooded floor quest right now! and yes your right in attakcing his chest, it has cutting damage value of 45, higher than anywhere else on his body. im starting to really learn all his tells and moves now, but i still cant really tell if he is hurt when he is in the water. when he swims he always seems to twirl in circles as he moves forward. With R. ludroth that shows he's limpin but i'm not sure if thats right with Lagi

There's definitely a difference in the way he swims, he's smoother when unhurt (duuuh, not very helpful, sorry), and he makes an annoying whiny moan thing when he's limping, although its not very loud.dsister44 said:
Where have you been, dude? I managed to get some decent stuff done online today, but it's hard to find good teammates! Faust is cool, but most randoms are kinda difficult to play with.
Like he said, what quests have you done so far? Have you done thed0c_zaius said:

edit2: yup that triggered it! time to finish this offline. after I fight bigchin....

It's hard to describe but when he is "limp-swimming" (swimping?) you will DEFINITELY recognize it. Four of us were wondering the same thing last night and then it actually happened and we were all, "Ohhhhhhh...okay."

I'm putting Quru on farm simply because I LOVE how the armour looks.

So an icon (not the microphone/speaker one) appeared on the top of my screen during online and there's no indication of what it means.

It MIGHT be the cat that builds your furniture.
Good games with a few dudes from this forum. I have problems with short term memory, so forgive me for forgetting your names already (Lance B, A-somethingorother, Sora, ISHU, and two others).
Good times, need to add you fellas to my friend list so I can commit your names to memory :lol

Ah, just found that.
Yes, a cat finished making furniture, let's inform the player with an icon of an exploding cornucopia on a stand. :lol

Yeah...my nephew and I were puzzled by that last night as well.
Awesome game, but completely fucking strange at times.

Guys I have a big question regarding the Wii. I dont own one, and a cousin is lending me his wii. Im going to buy MH3 and the control, but what will happen if, for example, my cousin ask for the wii in 1 month? can I backup my save and then use it a new wii?

Just be sure to have one of those flash card thingies to copy it to when he takes it back.

I'm back at uni which means wired internet only. I'm gunna order aNintendo USB adaptor from amazon but until it arrives I can do nothing. Gives my a chance to get some practice in the offline mode. Most of the monsters in the online 3* i've never met so i'd be pretty useless at them anyway
btw, do we have new arena and event quests or is it still no mercy and querepeco?

You sadly cannot copy the save file to an SD card -- I tried it myself the other day. I'm not sure what else you could possibly do, though.sotodefonk said:

So I fought my first Gigginox today (offline) and I must say that is the creepiest, nastiest, most unnerving nightmare fuel beastie in the game. I ultimately ran out of time and finished via subquest.

I'd LIKE to play with other people, and I was able to a few days ago, but yesterday the game suddenly decided that it didn't want me to play with other people and hits me with a 11669 error whenever I try to join a city. Other people can't join my cities either. This did not happen at all until just the other day.
Gigginox is wierd with his ass-face and face-ass, but the wings are the clue, so no problem there. He's actually pretty easy and I've had no problems bludgeoning him even with my -30% affinity Carapace Mace. He kills his own minions constantly and I just ignore the eggs unless I need to do the subquest, but even then, Gigginox kills his eggs, too.
Gotta say, the Khezu was a much worthier foe, and his lack of music made him that much more grotesque and unnerving. Maybe Gigginox+ will be what his predecesor is, here's hoping.
I'm gonna farm the hell out of that poisonous wimp, btw.

Because it's a reboot, the few things that did make it in were all redesigned and a lot of the game systems were altered.
When they're trying to reel back in the pacing and importance of every creature akin to MH1, why would they go down a route that has them cramming things in ala MHFU?

Always a chance with free events?
With that said, I'm really enjoying the new monsters although it was like "coming home" when I got to tangle with a Rathian last night.
