[RaySpencer]

Is there a list out there that would tell me what the 'useless' items are? The ones that you just sell and won't be used in crafting. I assume the Dazzling Crown is one of these items, and Black Pearl too.

 

[Kouriozan]

Can you not get a rustshard on a cursed table? I got one earlier, so that'd be nice to know.

Table 12 and 16 can't get rustshard.
OH WAIT I'm dumb, I confirmed that I didn't have table 12/16/17 in this thread via mining charm >.<

I'm trying to check what charm table I have with mining, gonna take a while.
Right now I'm 100% sure I don't have table 12, 16 and 17

 

[Rize_21]

Can you get ko'd "infinitely"in the Moga's forest or is there a limitation like in the quests?

 

[Haunted]

Best spot seems to be the hidden Felyne village in Moga Woods, in area 4, right next to the entrance where you drop down. I can't find anywhere else that has them consistently.

EDIT: What ARE rustshards? I got two from mining last night, and a special noise played, so I assume they're special.

Rustshards are a rare drop that convert to actual weapons when appraised. Usually it's one of the standard weapons, but in rare cases they're the starting weapon for a special crafting tree branch.

 

[Zornica]

Great game Spieler1!

now euro GAF seems like a wasteland to me... where are you people?

still waiting for zavvi to deliver my game... until than, 3ds version only...


btw:
do I need something special to unlock the giginox boots? can craft everything except those...

 

[nicoga3000]

Thanks for the info on the Carpenter Bugs. Time to go hunt those pieces of shit.

 

[saveweyard]

What headsets are people using for this? I've never owned a headset with a mic, but this game might push me to buy one.

 

[Fistwell]

got another week off

Ended up playing offline after dinner. I'll be around tomorrow.

 

[Alcotholic]

You can get KO'd as many times as you want.

 

[Kouriozan]

I'll be around tomorrow.

Me too, still 5 quest left to be HR 3 so I'll do those.

[gunstarhero]

Doesn't seem to be a lot of talk about using the Lancer - is that because it's "old news" or is it something else?

Just curious - i'm new to MH and am leaning towards the lancer - but dont want to if its a busted class...

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

Doesn't seem to be a lot of talk about using the Lancer - is that because it's "old news" or is it not a good class?

Just curious - i'm new to MH and am leaning towards the lancer - but dont want to if its a busted class...

Lances are still top tier weapons in this game.

Every weapons are good, just use the one you like the most.

I think it may be more the fact that damage may be a little less than desired damage early on and materials are hard to come by to upgrade the weapons as well.

 

[Raide]

Slowly learning the bow. The wiiu pad just ain't good for aiming. Having to let go of fire to aim around is nearly impossible. So glad i sorted the monster target thing.

any particular settings for the pad to make it a bit easier to handle?

also it seems to be the best idea to hit and run most monsters. Just met Wroggi for the first time. Pretty easy if you keep a good distance.

 

[Ragus]

I needed 6 Carpenter Bugs to complete my Wroggi cowboy set. So much time spent in S. Plains and I still have to find 2 of them.

So close, yet so far ;_;

Moga woods, zone 4, felyne camp. Abundance.

I don't have the game yet... but I don't think they have changed it much since Tri and Portable 3rd, Lances are awesome and OP as fuck underwater. There's no way it's a busted class.

Oh cool, I got two sets of rusted weapons. I figured they were worthless, but they must be rad then. Whoo!

Moga woods, zone 4, felyne camp. Abundance.

They sure aren't abundant anymore. I barely get 1 or 2 per trip.

 

[Kouriozan]

This game is quickly becoming my most played Wii U game, once you have learned how to play, it's really addictive :lol
I'll stick with hunting horn, I have the feeling that all my online hunt since I use it are faster, thanks to Attack/Defense boost S.

Only thing I change is make Z buttons function as R and L.

 

[Mr_Appleby]

I completed a Rathalos set last night, pretty happy about that. Is this one worth putting armor spheres into?

basic armour spheres stack up pretty quickly so I think there's no harm in upgrading any armour you like the skills of. I've just started out in this one and happily rocking the basic hunter's set gemmed for autotracker (no paintballs needed!) and I'll just upgrade it for a while rather than get something else.

Best spot seems to be the hidden Felyne village in Moga Woods, in area 4, right next to the entrance where you drop down. I can't find anywhere else that has them consistently.

the two bug points in tundra area one both give carpenter bugs on most runs, for me anyway. There's a gathering quest available at the port from the start of the game- put on your farming gear (leather armour from start of game is fine), run out and search the bugs. Even if you don't get any it's hardly any wait to turn the ticket it and try again. If you want to make some money while you're at it take pickaxes and mine in the caverns for blood stones and golden bones.

 

[Spaaaaaaaaace]

Is there better rewards when you capture a monster instead of killing it?

 

[bitoriginal]

Fuck you Wii U controller battery life

 

[Mr_Appleby]

yes, always go the cap if you can.

I always admired the good lancers... There's just something about standing your ground in the face of a giant ferocious beast with a bad ass toothpick that deserves a little kudos.

 

[Snowden's Secret]

Just discovered the hunting horn. This is a lot of fun to play. Is it worthwhile to pursue?

 

[WonkyPanda]

Anyone up to do some HR1 quests (i'm still farming barroth), and if we're feeling adventurous, lagiacrus?

 

[Ivan A Nguyen]

I need a monster bone+ to make a really good hammer upgrade. I just killed the urgent quest for the lamp fish. What monster should I battle to get Monster Bone + from?

 

[Haunted]

If you have fun with it, go for it! Every weapon is viable. That's what makes MonHun's weapon balance so great.

 

[Santiako]

I got some from Nibelsnarf.

 

[keeblerdrow]

I will. I haven't been having a super experience online so far. A lot of people bowing out in the middle of hunts and no one really HR1 hunting.

 

[Lucid07]

Great game Spieler1!

now euro GAF seems like a wasteland to me... where are you people?

Sorry man, had work to be doing today, only got a few hunts in on the 3DS.

 

[Filth]

I only use the lance. Top tier weapon imho.

 

[noonche]

Is there a consensus on the best place to get the circle pad pro xl in NA?

Amazon ! Lol

Ok. I'll make a room, you can add my NID: WonkyPanda.


I'll edit this again with a room name. Gotta boot it up.

Still need people?

 

[WonkyPanda]

Ya, add me "WonkyPanda" and i'll edit back with a room name. Let me just get my herbs going.

 

[Alcotholic]

In the 45 hours that I've played this past week, I feel like I've gotten further than in the 150 hours I put into Tri. I dont know what that means though...

 

[kuroneko0509]

[Abandond]

Man Cha-Cha almost killed me. It was a Rhenoplos chasing after him and then he runs right infront of me so the Rheno hits him and then hits me as well. Crazy little midget.
