I was about to check the DLC to get the update, and then my Wii U decided to update...
Okay, Granny finally sold me her new stuff... And I've just spent about 2 million z. 400,000 or so on Kelbi Horns, a bunch of Armor stones, and then over a million spent upgrading my armors with all the Tru Armor Sphere I got combining those Armor Stones with all the Meldspar Ores I had in reserve waiting for this moment.

Man, what a roller coaster ride. Totally pushed my luck with my 3DS battery at work, where I have no charger. Got to Zinogre on "Lurkers in the Woods" and the red light went from steady to flashing. Finished the quest and the thing died during the carve minute.
Welp, went back at it again this morning and the desire sensor did me a solid. 3 Zinogre Jaspers in the rewards. I think the ration / megapotion carves took a lot of the sting out of the 'practice run'.

Got so sick of friendly fire last night that I Wyvern'd someone half way across the screen. I couldn't help myself.

Is 350 raw, 140 dragon good on Djho's DS?
It's my first dragon weapon and I figured it wasn't terrible. I hate the Djho gun lance

Jeez, you're lucky.
I machine gunned steel uragaan about 20-25 times in a row saturday to get his gem
Said it before, said it again.
Steel Uragaan can go die in the stinky hole he crawled out of.
On another note, I'm glad all that Meldspar Ore is not going to go to waste.
I'm wondering if Granny will discount the new item she's got anytime soon, or if it'll remain full price.
Grabbed a bunch of Armor stones anyway.

I really, really wanted his armor for my gun lance. I hear his G-rank is even better. I'm sure I'll do it again lol
Made a solo lucent nargacuga video. It´s not the best run. Almost died at the end. It´s pretty decent.

I´m not so advance like you guys, but yesterday I was playing all day. Still rank 5 on history and 3 on multi.
What armor do you recommend to capture a lagiacrus? My Rathian armor suffers with it.

Anything with good lightning defense I would think. I find him to be more about knowledge of his attack sets rather than what armor you are using, especially in HR missions

I mean which of those two is the better Water HBG, not the better armor set for Water HBG. Can't decide. :S
EsotericManiac

oh, sorry, i understand now. let me check that for you
Early in the upgrade list, the nibelsnarf seems to give you a decent boost in DEF. The G Agnak has more types of ammo it can utilize it seems.
http://www.kiranico.com/weapon/heavybowgun/
I would definitely suggest the G.agnak one
A small attack power increase goes a long way on HBG compared to melee weapons
Plus the G.agnak one has much faster reloading, higher capacity for pierce, your main source of damage after element, and can load ice as well, which almost everything weak to water is somewhat weak to
The crouch fire normal 3 on the nibelsnarf would be really good for elder dragons, but I'm assuming this is just a general use hbg and it gets outclassed by a lot of other hbg with normal 3 crouch fire later on

Won't the varying size of the monster make a big difference when you do these runs on a regular quest?
Luckily size doesn't vary enough for it to make too much of a difference. The only thing I ever had problems with is sometimes whiffing upswings aimed at a large one's head with the gunlance but it's easy to make adjustments. Dual swords can reach everywhere that I need to ( ´∀｀
bAs for health, size doesn't affect it, so the runs are still pretty consistent

I always just assumed smaller monsters had less health and that's what skills like Felyne Weakener are for, increasing the chance to have the monster be a small one. >_>

Good news! I have no work today!
I finally got my Japanese visa, so I'm going to be moving to Japan soon, but this also means that work is kinda winding down on this side so they can front load work when I actually arrive in the office.
So! That means for the next few days I will probably be free to play! Which means I'll be playing at more reasonable hours (at least for a short time), and I'm going to make a push to finish HR6 and 7.
Who wants to do some HR6 key quests this afternoon?

For some reason I just hate fighting Lagiacrus. Even more so than the Ivory version. I need to get his horn + but he keeps giving me regular horns.

Fuck poison. Fuck it fuck it fuck it. Fuck it so hard. Why is there no meal you can eat that gives you poison resistance or poison immunity?

What mask? Does the Nullberry mask purge poison?
EsotericManiac
Banned
I believe that is the one, yes. It's blue
There's a dance combo that gives them antidote, which cures poison. You need to do a rare trade for it though.

Are you sure Nulberry Mask removes poison? I remember it failing me consistently when I tried.

apparently it cures blights, so perhaps not
The Technomancer

Oh, well, fuck that then. Its no good to me if forty five seconds after I get poisoned and I've taken a third of my health in damage I finally pop an antidote only for them to do the curing dance a whole two seconds after I do
I am wondering, but what do Tanzia Chips do?
Fully restores any red portion of your health bar. Super sexy. Too bad you can only carry 5.
Wow, that's damn useful. I'll have to start carrying them. My little dudes do that on occasion and I love it, I couldn't even imagine doing it myself until now.
