Pellet HBGs are OP as hell in village. I could lock some of them in place while breaking every single part. Barrioth fell down in maybe 3 mins.
Ill stick to my Pecco gun until I can get better armor and DS with better sharpness.

Beat Brachydios for the first time. Used all of my Potions and half of my Mega Potions. Lost a lot of health, but I didn't get carted, so yay for me. What do you have to do to unlock the 8* (or is it 9*) village quests? Mind you that I didn't complete all of the 7* (or is it 8*) quests yet. Didn't get an urgent after beating Brachydios.
Also, Moga Woods at night, god damn, so dangerous now lol.

I looked up a chart with possible charms and Table 5 (the one I'm on) looks pretty barren. I'm at 18 hours and I wouldn't mind restarting tbh, knowledge of this charm table stuff has kind of tainted my perception of my character going forward. Knowing that there's better, I don't think I can help not restarting so, I was going to ask:
When do you start the timer on your stopwatch? There's a slight delay in the 3DS menu after putting in a new time as it backs out after confirming so is it as soon as you press A to enter the time?

Supposedly retail 3rd party Wii U games don't have CN codes and NFS:MW for the Wii U is the first 3rd-party game to do so.
figures... just funny how the 3DS version has a code (which i regged)... i wonder what the cause is.
Whoops, forgot to say that applies only for 3rd-party Wii U games. 3rd party 3DS games have had CN codes for a long time.

Was going to go to sleep, but then I noticed new DLC.
Started up a NA server, Free Play 03 > Lobby 9 > GAF!! > Pass:
HR3 and up, as that's what the quests need.

Anyone? Is everyone just out and about tonight ):
Assuming things are still like in Tri, Diablos has puffs of smoke coming out of his mouth when enraged. Also, he's horrifyingly fast.
I used bounce bombs a lot when farming Diablos. Go underneath his when he's still and mash the Y button.

Somehow, endlessly farming Rathalos is still fun. I've switched over to LS, I'm liking it a lot! I'm not sure how I'm *supposed* to use it, but I've only been using the Spirit Combo sparingly after I get my meter/color up. Hopefully I won't trip everyone when I finally play multi tomorrow!
Fuck fishing, no seriously. Why did I even go back to that goldenfish quest, fuck the completionist in me too.
Yup I'm using them right now and although the elemental damage is nice, their sharpness drops way too fast, need to upgrade them asap.

Guess how long it took me to hook a spear tuna for the frozen fish GS? Ain't no bait for those.

Why should I hunt Crimson Qurupeco when Deviljho can hunt it for me? >___<
He wouldn't go away so I let him get some moves on the C. Qurupeco, what a inconvenient monster to call C. Qurupeco.

Still need someone?
These are that rare to carve? Managed to get one from his tail the second time I fought him.
Hunting high rank Barroths together with a friend of mine, and who should show up but everyone's pal Deviljho. We're both only just dipping into high rank so I know I don't have the gear to actually fight him yet. Fortunately the Barroth was wounded enough to flee, so we followed and finished it off.
Once that was done we rushed back into the other area and started fighting on Jho just for the hell of it. Just as the quest is about to clear he does his jump-pin attack on my friend, so we're treated with "QUEST COMPLETE" splashing across the whole screen while watching him get mercilessly eaten, and fade to black. Felt like a fitting end to the night.

I'm a little hesitant to get to the more difficult quests in the village. but soloing G multiplayer, you're crazy.

Arena quests are so easy, it used to be a lot more strategic on MH3.

Combine the power/armorcharm with Jho Talon, then carry two upgraded charms and two regular.
You won't regret.
Yeah sadly I only had one which I wasted trying to figure out how to fish (first time playing monster hunter here). All is good though, I finished that and got a sharqskin which I needed too. It only took half an hour...
Also, just finished fighting Rathalos, it was really fun! (when he decided to land). Next time, I'll try bringing some flash bombs. His armor looks interesting too, I think it will be next on my "to forge" skill.
Next up, Barioth or Diablos. Hmm...
I find there's a lot in the cave (Area 6) in the Sandy Plains.
Just got around to buying perception decorations for my armour. Definitely should've done so earlier. Capturing is SO much more simple now.

Woo, T10! I must have done the table rigging completely wrong last time because I ended up on 13 lol
There was one set of fish that made the calculator bug out and not show anything, should I just ignore that?

Picked up the game for 3DS a couple days ago and I'm having a pretty fun time so far. I do have a couple really noobish questions:
I'm using the Ludroth Switch Axe which apparently does 120 water damage. Does that water damage apply all the time, or only when my axe is in sword mode? And is this weapon doing less damage to watery enemies like the Royal Ludroth or Gobul, than a weapon that does no water damage?
Are these "online" missions you guys are talking about the ones handed out in Port Tanzia? Can these all be done in single-player? And do the Moga Village quests make up the bulk of the game, or are they just tutorials for the Port Tanzia missions?
And what is the best way to determine which armor sets to upgrade to? They all seem to have relatively similar stats so far, is it the skills that set each piece of armor apart from one another?
Whew, that turned into a lot more questions than I had anticipated. I would have bought a guide book or something if one was available. Lots to learn jumping into this series for the first time.

It does more damage to enemies that are weak to water. Enemies don't resist elements iirc. It's raw damage will make up for anything not weak to water.
Yes, Tanzia is where the online missions are, but they can be played solo in the solo, or multi port. Beware though, monsters there are way stronger.
Early on, I personally just got armor that looked cool. If you really want to be effective though, go for skills that compliment your playstyle. For example, I just recently decided to go all out with the bow. For that I need full Purple Ludroth armor since it has a skill that will immensely help out with my stamina management.
Skills and weaknesses are what make armor stand out. A full set of Jaggi armor will work with a bunch of things, but also give you a fat weakness to fire.
Hope that helped
