Yep yep, I love the monsters design and the area is pretty cool too but the fight itself... oh man.
I was carving him and watching his head horn charge up. I was just thinking, "this is about to be bad"
lol, I love Monhun
probably won that fight 10 times now and I still have no idea what I'm doing and what you are supposed to do
Until HR7 you have to do key quests, than an urgent unlocks, after you've beaten this you get a rank up. After doing the urgent for 7* to what would be 8* (g-rank) your HR is calculated through hunter points which you get for every quest you do (doesn't matter if online or offline) and you've done up to this point - that's why you'll see a jump from HR7 to something around HR30-HR40 after beating the 7* urgent.
you only need to do the key quests for each rank (can be shared), after that the urgent apears (you need to choose the quest to finish ist).
Yeah pretty much this until you unlock the HR (which will happen after the
Dalamadur
Same here haha. I basically go for the tail when it shows up, dodge the biting attack, go for the back and rinse and repeat lol
I think you can get a HR gravios hunt-a-thon just through singleplayer progression

Is Water S still piercing? Last time I played with HBG was in Freedom Unite.

Anybody seen any information regarding Palico skills and their effectiveness? Recently I've been playing with a Bomber as my 2nd pal and while he's at times incredibly disruptive it also sort of feels worth it, but I don't know for sure since I don't know exactly how much damage he's dealing. I see him flinch the monsters often enough to make me feel like it's really good, though.
Also, Meowster Hunters makes no sense to me. I usually put them on auto but every once in awhile I'll do it manually and it just feels random. I made a team where every cat had varying degrees of yellow attacks, and just two of them had red, against monsters with all red attacks.
Get in and every single round I only get the option to use red or nothing. So every round is a wash and I end up failing at the second monster. Not once does it allow me to use any yellow in like 5 rounds...
Prolly just gonna slap it on auto and not worry about it until I find something that can explain if there's a way to do it properly.

oh, yea, that'll be much better for getting my gem. Time to carry on with these quests!
Just do it from the cat in your house, don't have to do anything then. Dunno if there's any downside to that, but it's probably not a big enough deal to go through the minigame.

Starting to get a handle on the CB ... my goodness!
A full shield charged release is so satisfying when done right.
It's like for a moment ... YOU become the monster.

Anybody using the old XL experiencing battles in Monoblos/Apex Seregios to run like on half-speed?

I never add bomber type of Felynes as a companion ever! They're going to to screw up your setup/big-attack when you need it most.
I think you still have to counter the monster moves based on the three colors in the mini-game. IMO, just use the cat in the room to get some scraps.
They moved those Tigrex armor skills to the Brute variant... Tigrex U.
Go Velociprey S and gem in Attack Up L or XL.

Meowster hunters thing is just a rock paper scissors game. I think it's R > Y, Y > B, B > R and white is neutral. There's a little chart thing before you send them out. Just
Beating on an iodrome on my way to work and all I could think of is "why are you even in this game". Why is it in this game. It should have been a wroggi instead, all 'dromes are the same, even their armour looks the same. A G. Jaggi and G, Wroggy with a Veloci and Gen would have been more interesting and a bit more balanced for scrub monsters.
Also the Wroggi set looks better.

The non bullshit hit boxes and monsters getting exhausted now do that. I found brute tigrex to be a lot more difficult

Yeah I killed him first and wasn't sure if he was playing dead so I was circling around him for like 15 seconds waiting for him to wake up
Cool, let's hope it offers more of a challenge

Got 4 of us to HR5 earlier, and each Pink Rathian run gave me Ruby 
Just try walking through it. If it's alive, it's solid.
The fact that he can now start running as he turns around means no more easy head pounds as he turns though.
I did like that addition actually. Still not as tough as I wanted it to be but I look forward to the brute version

So uh can you bait any monsters with frog bait in this game? Zamtrios might be a likely candidate what with his monster list bio indicating its love for frogs but I haven't figured out how or even if you can bait it with them.
Damn Gypceros is a hiding jerk. Stop damn running off. I spend so long chasing him around that the paintball wears off and I spend even longer chasing him again. What makes is worse is that all the areas he is in all all weird terrain, which makes bow use a nightmare.
Finally got that jerk down!

Stay free Darren Moran. Whole party disconnected but I still managed to kill him in about the same time it'd take a full group. Even got an Earth Dragongem for my persistence.
It's the same as P3rd with the current movement additions/upgrades, still a cakewalk tho.

Fought Tigrex yesterday, it's a shell of itself sadly. Seltas Queen was a really fun fight, really interesting mechanics
Absolute truth. I was really looking forward to my first Tigrex but even dual frenzied Tigrexes were a joke.
I wonder if MHFU's broken hitboxes is what made him so scary before. Now I'm comfortable being right under him because I know I can get out when I need to without being dragged by an invisible limb.

Damn good set. Edge lore is amazing. Needs to be paired with something with already awesome sharpness for maximum effect though, due to no honed blade or sharpness+1.
Welcome.
If you don't break it, you can tell he's playing dead because the light on his head (the one that causes the flash) starts flashing before he gets up

That's what I said when I mined 5 machalite from my first blue node on day one.
Edit: Lol. Just got 3 Velocidrome Heads....from hunting 2 Velocidrome.
Something's genetically wrong here.

bad gameplay lol
Has anyone else noticed that Rustshards seem super common now? I don't think I ever saw the "Rustshard at maximum" message while mining in any previous MH games.

I saw that message all the time in Tri. But yeah, they're definitely pretty common here, too. And I've been lucky enough that it's only given me weapons I use. Rusted Lance and Rusted Hammer so far.

I had a dream I got the Pure Scale I needed.
I woke up early to get this shit before I start my day.

The same happened to me too in 3U. completing my Helios X set. Then after that I never got any cloudy moonshard for the next 15 Lucent Nargs
This is my complaint with this game
But then I remember the bullshit that is Yian Garuga
Woah just got to guild 7 and it jump considerably in difficulty. That second monster the Alz something lol his hits hurt and I was literally across the other side of the stage and he did this massive beam or sonic boom of sorts and it reached me from all the way from one end of the stage to the other and it completely one hit KO me. Woah. It's this expected? I thought my armor defense has been pretty good, until now lol. And how do you Dodge this. And damn I also have some weapons and armor to make but low on money. Yikes.
Welcome to G rank, enjoy your stay.
