I moved up into the high rank quests in solo mode the other day and have finished a few 6-star missions. Any recommendations on a new armor set? It only takes a few swipes from monsters like the purple ludroth while I'm in my low rank wroggi set to whittle my health down quickly. Would anyone recommend the Great Jaggi set as a good place to start?

Jaggi is usually a pretty decent start for entering a new tier. It helps to know what your weapon is when giving armor recommendations though.
I always upgrade my weapons first when entering a new tier and armor second.
The P. Ludroth is exactly why I turned my sights on the Wroggi armor. One night of farming HR G. Wroggi and a few LR G. Wroggi and I'm just a few pieces away. The defense boost compared to my Lagi set is significant, too. If you can farm online, there's a 2x G Wroggi HR3 quest that will make it go twice as fast.

Good gravy, a guy on my friends list is HR 26. Wat.
Those don't show up until you do the urgent for 6* quests.

There will always be low rank rooms usually. And clearing out if them is a breeze compared to 6 star and above so don't worry. Had Will help you out if you can't find rooms
Generally, Narga X is great for any bowgun. I made a Uragaan Z set for my Ancient LBG for the extra Crag and KO damage.
Debating on whether or not to get a cpp for my xl. I usually play on my WiiU but when I do play on my 3ds, I absolutely can't swim or fight well underwater.
Land isn't too bad. My attack angles change some and it annoys me a tad but I can beat everything usually without a cart.

Just save the underwater portions for home, that's what I've been doing.

So now everyone is above me in rank, rather than below. I cant find a single fucking server that is for HR6 quests and not for HR6 key quests. Everytime I open a server, not one person joins...maybe I'm cursed, or maybe I'm just hated or something. Sigh, guess I'm never getting passed HR6. Back to SP I suppose.

Plessy is easier in water.
well I find everything under water is terrible, rofl. I just find moving around him much easier on ground.

I need two conq seals, eu gaf?
What's the rush? HR6 means you can pretty much join any mission you want already. Keep joining those quest rooms and you'll probably get through most of your keys w/o noticing.
And if you truly can't find people you can always solo them. Multiple monster quests are especially easy as they have lower HP. Monsters gain resistance to slime over the course of a fight, so you actually have an easier time w/ multiple low-HP monsters vs a single high-HP monster. Get the artillery mask and lamp masks, buff up Chacha/Kayamba and you'll end up with the equivalent of 2-4 Barrel Bomb+'s that you can fire at your target every minute as well (ATK+/SevenLives/SpeedyRecovery for the Lamp mask, Speedy or Blood Brother for the Artillery).

If you prefer fighting Plesioth on land then try fishing it out with frogs.
What rank are they?
G Rank.

I'm not from EU, but are you doing the Volvidon + Great Jaggi quest? It's the easiest way.
Try to look for a Great Jaggi room, if you find one they are probably farming Seals.

Haha 36 hours in and I just (sort of) figured out how skills work. I had looked at the skills screen a while ago but then just sort of forgot about it.
So a skill gets activated if (and only if) you get it up to 10, correct? If I have 9 on something for example, I don't see the effect of that at all?
I assume I'll start getting to armor and weapons with more than one socket available at some point, and more gems that are +2 (or more?). I don't have full sets of armor yet with gems that could get me to 10. At most I can get +6.
But definitely cool to see how the armor skills work now that I've really looked at the skills screen and watched how things change when you look at different armor.
I can't believe I have played 36 hours of this game (SP only). I still haven't even captured a Royal Ludroth! I have truly barely scratched the surface.

After playing this online and having a local mult MH3U session I'm officially addicted.. I can't go back to playing solo now aha
Ah, finally after halfway through Village HR the LS weapon tree makes sense to me. I've been using the Bleeding Cross+ (Poison) to farm Plesioth for the Plesioth Splasher (my first weapon with blue sharpness, yay!), then the Splasher to farm Brachydios for the Dios Katana, which i now call my own. Excellent!
Now i have a LS for every occasion, plus:
Wyvern Blade "Fire"/"Flame", Rimeblossom (Ice), Rumbalarum (Thunder), Shadowbinder (Paralyse).
I'm quite happy now!
Before i've felt almost always like "Oh, this requires stuff from <insert monster way out of reach here>"

I enjoy the challenge of beating the online stuff solo because the offline stuff is too easy but yes multiplayer is soooo much fun.

I made my G Rank Crimson Qurupeco armour earlier, despite barely having more defence than my previous Jhen Mohran set and a perhaps less desirable skill set I look simply fabulous and in the end that's what matters most, well okay maybe not but i'll enjoy it while it lasts.
After a strong stint of not failing any quests me and my local multiplayer brigade were defeated by Rust Duramboros in a battle of attrition, well at least I didn't cart but as I expected this one seems even more durable than the original.

Yes, although some skills benefit from a 2nd or 3rd level if you have 15 or 20 but it really depends on the skills. Also pay attention to negative skills - so long as you're at -9 or less you're fine but as soon as it hits -10 then you've got that negative skill in effect. Sometimes you may want to slot in a gem for the skill you've currently got a -10 in to bring it back down to -9 so you don't suffer from it, but be careful if its a low level gem as it may bring down one of your +10 active skills down to +9 and make it inactive.
It can be a balancing act...

Play the last 2 quests and you'll be begging to go back online.
I know right, I only did key quests and I'm not really feeling like I want to go back through all those but I want to finally be able to fight Alatreon offline. I'll save that for when I can only play on my 3ds.
Gonna try some G-Rank solo tonight maybe. I think I need the Goldeard Caedus armor first though probably
