He can be put in a pitfall but not if he is coming from underground because he destroys it I think.

That said, some monsters are immune to Shock Traps as well. There's one monster that escapes me right now that actually regains stamina if it gets caught in a Shock Trap.
Zinogre. It charges him up, but it does still work on him.
I think it charges Lagi too.

im hr4 already, just trying to get the wroggi set
That sounds awesome. Doesn't the Diablos armor have crit draw? Maybe I should make that instead of Rathalos for my GS.
It's probably kind of sad that I'm honestly considering picking up the 3DS version of the game just so that I'm able to play while visiting my parents' house over Easter, haha. Saturday night without the option to hunt feels like it would be maddening.
Also, I take back what I said earlier about Duramboros being an interesting fight. He's an ass.

Seems like Diablos X is the only armor that has +10 in Crit Draw out of the box.
Other armor that includes Crit Draw and their point totals: Artian X (4), Ingot X (2), Dober X (3), Grand Hyuga - Female (2), Bnahabra X (3), Brachydios X (3), Barioth X (4), Grand Yamoto - Male (2), Lagiacrus X (2), Rhenoplos X (3), and Rathalos X (2.)

When do sub objectives start in quests? Are the conditions secrect?
What's the difference between Diablos armor and Diablos X armor?

I wish there was a Psychic Jewel 2 with 3 points, I can get up to 14 with my current slots but I need one more to have the monster displayed at all times. =/ Hate paintballs and maps taking up spaces in my inventory.

That's unfortunate. When do you unlock the X armors? I guess I'll stay with aiming for Rathalos armor.
S and V armor sets are High rank. I think X and Z are G rank. Also, V and Z are subspecies armor sets.

Actually I think it might correspond to the upgrade levels, maybe? Like if you upgrade it with armor spheres it might become X?
I don't know, haha. Don't listen to me, just thinking out loud.

I got mine by re doing the Great Jaggi capture quest.

Can someone back this up? If I can upgrade the basic Diablos armor to X rank or if it is a totally different set.

Ah I see. And it is "U", but the guide makes it look like a "V."
Sorry, seems like it's different.

Sorry man, quest took longer than I thought. Not gonna be able to help out.

Oh well, Rathalos armor looks cooler anyway. When can I fight Rathalos in Moga Village? I haven't had a queat with him yet.
Sorry about all of these questions! I really should just buy a guide. All the different versions of monster hunter make the info confusing as hell.
You can fight Rathalos when you get to the 5 star quests in the village.
His design is fine, I just tend to run out of patience for him really quickly. It felt weird to marathon him and then go out and clobber Volvidon in ten minutes even while taking a number of needless hits.

Same, sad to see them go. Loved ending a quest early with subquest when things were going south too lol (Or just to leave with all the goodies in my inventory)
Kinda wish that this game had a weapon master of sorts in Mogi town to help train how best to utilize your weapons. Had no idea how the combo chain worked with my longsword until I saw some youtube video and the in-game "Hunter's notes" in the pause menu does not at all describe it(just basic button functions). Just a training dummy and a simple explanation tutorial on how the advanced functons of each weapon works would go a LONG way to getting newcomers more in-tune with combat.
I can't fathom how many dual blades users have no idea how demon gauge works, or again that the long sword can be buffed three levels with its special gauge based on landing its charge combos.
Also, why aren't the elemental properties of Long swords listed on the crafting menu? When I agonized over choosing between chainblade and Wroggi sword last night, I was shocked to discover that each had hidden elemental attributes when comparing each on gfaqs(Lit vs. Poison). What the hell?? Other weapons show elemental properties.

I've been doing it quite often, got some good elemental ones.
It's a great weapon. Everyone kind of discounts it and considers it noobish but it is just a good solid choice. The jump slash combo feels great to pull off.
What you probably saw on the gfaqs guides were weapons with latent elements. There's a skill called Awakening that brings out elemental attributes to weapons that normally don't have them. Plenty of longswords have default elements too.

Anyone have an armor suggestion for an archer? I want to make high rank armor that supports my bow but the skills I'm seeing support gunners. Fast charge would be good but the 3 sets available to me that have it are... well I don't want to look like an iron teddy bear, vampire cosplayer, or the Pumpkin Queen for some small town harvest festival.
The bow feels really neglected in the support skills department. Any suggestions?

SnS is a pretty good weapon. If you pick the right one for the best monster, it can be a great advantage. I used to take down Barioths with a SnS, because it gave me great mobility and it had good strength mixed with tons of Fire elemental damage.
I'm debating whether I should put the time in to farm up another low-rank armor set before stepping into the high rank missions. Rolling Qurupeco for my horns and Barroth for basically everything else, and I'm not sure if I'd be better off getting myself some Barioth armor, or just start by crafting up some sort of early high rank set. No idea yet what worthwhile skills there are to be had in that, though.
omg ive been trying to get somebody to help me rank up to hr3 on my urgent for so long, and i finally found a group to help
it was me, SnS guy, and DS dude, VS Rathalos and Rathian and the fight was getting so long, just about twenty minutes
we had them both limping, and they went to area 8 to sleep, and after waking them up, i managed to kill Rathian
DS dude only had a sliver of health left but was managing some great dodging (he ran out of pots), and SnS guy had already died twice so it was all or nothing
THEN RATHALOS WENT APESHIT AND KILLED DS DUDE
I THINK I'M GONNA CRY ;___;
I WANT OUT OF THIS HR2 GHETTO ;__________;

Opened a room Freeplay 3, Lobby 9, Room Name GAF HR3, Password:
Use dung bombs on Rathalos so you can fight Rathian alone. That makes it pretty easy.
Health Horn is your friend, and everybody else's friend too!
To make things a bit easier bring some dung bombs and keep them separated. It's more fun to fight them in the same area together, but it can be the cause of some accidental deaths, lol. If you're just ready to be done with it, bring the dung and keep them separated and kill them one at a time.
Look for something with Loading/Load up. Looks like Ceadeus and Jho armors, though.
Na, monsters are so wimpy in those. Got my asschaps from the highrank one.

Are they the weak versions or something? It made it sound like you fight 3 at once? I haven't booted them up yet, but I was going to give it a go.

Finally on High Rank in village and tavern but I'm so fucking broke right now. I feel like I'm short on money in this game all the time
No they're super wimpy. I did the Uru one last night hoping to get some parts but you kill them too fast to break any parts so you can't get any good rewards. You don't fight them at the same time, kill one then the next one spawns.
