Yeah the depth perception is what gets me too. I just get up and close to be sure.
Dodging up and down is usually more effective than sideways.

Yeah right. There are some things that you can do, but buying a game for a Nintendo console is not one of them
EDIT: At least i got him interested in the game and when 4 comes out with online multiplayer, then I will profit from this by having a co-op buddy
The 3ds version is worse too if you don't have the additional circle pad, it's a nightmare trying to move with only one analog leave alone hitting the enemy
I think the L targeting on bosses is quite sufficient... yard trash on the other hand is annoying.
This game is crack, played several hours last night. Currently doing 3 star village quests, killed my first Qurupeco, which was tons of fun when I was out of paintballs.
Bought the Samurai/Wanderer outfit and forged an Arzuros Naginata. Thinking about forging that Streaking with Bullfangos event quest award Lance.

Lancing. Seriously the long reach and safety of a lance can help cure the depth perception problem. Otherwise, you'll just get better with experience. I tend to stick to the bottom of the floor if that helps. I personally don't have a problem with water combat, nor ever did really. Just get up close and personal and you should be connecting your attacks. It isn't much different from land fights.

Hey guys,
Now that i try to optimize my stuff, i'm completely lost. I used to play MH2U & MH3rd (GS) and well, i didn't really optimize, just crafted what i can do.
Anyway, now i'm kinda lost. I'm currently on High guild missions (6 stars) & HR2, and i don't really know what i'm supposed to focus. I'm playing mainly LS, and i don't know which sets should i farm... Do you guys have any idea ? And which gems should i put on that stuff ? Thanks and sorry, bad english

iirc you can request friend when in the same room
If the Barioth set still has evasion skills, that'll compliment the LS well seeing as it can't block. The Lagiacrus set is such a good set for practically half the weapons, LS included.
You don't always have to go against the monster sometimes you have to escape/dodge too and in that case targeting it's useless, try move in the water when there isn't a boss in the room to L-target and tell me if it's comfortable or not.
Super-sized dung is a reward from killing giant Aptonoth, I might add. It's the only way to get it afaik.
You're still pretty early, I would just wear whatever and keep on trucking, but that's just me. As for jewels, you can't go wrong with attack. Perception can also be pretty useful.
I made the Barroth/Barioth ? set last night, I look spiffy.
Barroth is the mud t-Rex. Barioth is the ice sabretooth bat thing.

Added my info NNID to the list so if anyone wants to join up I'm free pretty much all day. I'm still only HR 1 since I haven't really gone online, but I've got gear for 4-star offline quests.
Edit: Oh and also I bought the Brady digital guide and it seems pretty good so far. Some of the pictures are pretty low-res for some reason, and I've found one mistake so far (a monster wasn't in the position they said it started in) but it's pretty good for looking up resources, skills, drops, etc. It's not really a guide so much as a list of everything in the game, but it looks nice and is easy to navigate.

Trying to decide what to upgrade my S&S to. My options are to upgrade my Commander's Dagger to:
- Hypnos Knife
- some other that seemed pretty inferior, don't remember name.
Or I can forge a new one, either
- Assassin's Dagger
- Carapace Mace
- sword made from Bnahabra parts
Recommendations? I think the Hypnos Knife is the only one that has a status effect(sleep), which I've seen people say is very important with S&S.
Also, going to upgrade a hammer as well. Was going to go with the Plume Flint. Is that decent?

I have finished all the two star offline quests. I want to go on a farming trip to the desert. Is it possible to do so just taking an exit from the village like I do when I go to dino island? If not, what should I do? Take the "just explore" quest in order to get there just for collecting stuff?
Also, I bought a book about managing space, did it expand my carrying capacity? If so, by how many spaces?
Thanks.

My Bone Great Sword made quick work of him.
Its weird how the game allows you to go to the main town, I was off questing before I realised there was a tutorial section haha
Dumb question, how did you add you details? I have the spreadsheet up but cannot figure out how to add my details.
Just take the Harvest Tour quest yes.

Right after the spreadsheet link there's a link for a questionnaire where you can put your info in.

Yep, it was a lot easier than I expected! Still so satisfying to kill though, this game is amazing.
And yeah, I went to the main town before I started doing the tutorial stuff. Then I realized that I wasn't ready AT ALL for that, and have been sticking to Moga Village ever since, hahaha.

Thank Ye Kindly!
I was looking at the full list instead of this one.
No problem!
Yeah, I sat staring at it for a good 2 minutes wondering how to edit the darn thing.
Same. That qurupeco fight where it summoned a huge dragon left me terrified when I even think of doing the single plyer version of the mission.

Another quick question, in order to use my Wii CCP, I need the remote right? Cannot find the damn thing anywhere.
The Wii U pro controller charges via USB, yeah.
Edit: And yeah, you need the wiimote.

I did the quest where I had to carry Wyvern eggs, and a giant dragon destroyed me.
Instantly went back to Moga Village after that complete failure, hahaha.
Arg. I wish there was an adapter to plug my Wii CCP into. Seems like I have way too many cables all over the place now.

So uh, stupid question.
How do you get the "AI" teammates that the box talks about on the back?

You'll unlock them during offline quests.

Yeah its far too addicting! Can't believe how much content must be in this game.
haha yeah I've been the same. Could do small quests just fine but was finding the hunting dreadfully difficult. Capcom really should have made everything clearer lol can see a few people getting completely lost.
Nah, you can finish an Urgent and still go back and do the other quests.
Or do the others and wait with the Urgent.
For what it's worth, when you're doing the village version of the Qurupeco quest, he won't summon Rathian. You're way more likely to wind up with a Great Jaggi, especially the first time you fight him.
It'll be there permanently, no need to fret. You can go back and do other quest.
