I spent all last night learning that damn fight. I'm barely to the point where I could farm him; the problem is finding 3 other people who wont get instagibbed by that beam.
I was in a couple rooms last night where a single beam carted the 3 other players and ended the quest right there. Infuriating...
It means that damage contributes to paralyzing the monster. So if you deal enough paralysis damage, you will reach a threshold at which the monster will be paralyzed.

wait really? crap now I need a new armor, maybe Neyscrella, I like the Gundam/Mecha look
Which weapon are you using?
I really do recommend the Veloci armor (assuming Melee), getting decorations to make it Attack Up M. It's easy to get, looks OK, and does the job well.
The iframes on the superman evade are like half an hour long. You can just mistime it, then keep spamming it and you won't get hit. Ideally I'd only want to do it with 2 other people so you can cut the tail and back blade before it dies. Just had a run with 4 people where the tail didn't get cut and you need a lot of tail shells for the glaive.
I'm trying out the various weapons in the tutorials now, and the combat is very satisfying. I have grown to love it much more than in Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate on Wii U and Freedom Unite on iPhone. That said, I really need help with 2 things:
- How can I map things to the dpad and the shoulder buttons? Can I only choose between pre-defined sets or is it freely customizable?
- Why don't the camera lock onto a target when I click the L-button once?

I got through it, but I'm not looking to go back for a while. First fight to make me rage at people when they just couldn't grasp the superman. Which sucks because I really want that glaive
I actually just found out about those 2 items last night when I combine stuff after I finally got my full HR tetsucabra armor lol.

I just got the gem so now I have to make it. Killed it 5 times now and I've gotten 2 tails and 1 back blade. So unlucky.
What is a good Insect Glaive weapon/armor set for High Rank? I'm currently using the poison glaive and high rank Tetsucabra, but I'm sure there's something better. I don't want to bother making all the glaives right now since apparently I'll have to remake them anyway once I get to G-rank.
So can anyone tell me a good all purpose glaive and armor set to get me through HR?

I can only seem to get that to work if I touch the picture of the monster on the bottom screen. I miss just using L

Didn't you always have to mark it by touching its icon first? I didn't play too much MH3 so I don't remember.
I've been using the Magala one for a long time now and kept upgrading it, it has served me well, I am now thinking to replace it with the Hermitarus one because in he long run has more attack

The target camera will only lock onto large monsters after they have seen you and their icon shows up. Touch the monster icon to set the lock.
Yes, this is exactly how it works in 3 as well.
Nope.
I think I removed the monster icons from the touch screen, when I customized my setup. Do you guys know how to map things to buttons?

I'm having problems playing this game online. I keep disconnecting every hour or so which is making it pretty unplayable. I can play PC games online all night with no problem so I'm not sure whats up. Despite being a PC gamer for a couple of decades I'm crap with technical stuff, can anyone suggest what the problem might be?
Help me neogaf, you're my only hope.

I think you can only map the monster mark to a button if you have a CPP or a N3DS. If you do, it will be in the options.

I don't think that's something you can map to a button, especially since it would also require a toggle if there were two large monsters. It's touch screen or nothing. I play 3U with the classic controller pro and still use the touch screen on the gamepad for this.
No. They're always balanced for 2.5 players.

HR7 keys done. A few were pretty dang rough. I got called a noob and kicked for the first time lol. It was more funny than anything, first time I've gone down twice online.
Gonna try out the urgent later then I'll finally be G-rank and I can craft some real armour

So what you're saying is that I've been wearing fake armor this entire time? God dammit.

I meant more like, if I can map anything to the buttons? Will I only be able to use the dpad for camera controls?
I have a New Nintendo 3DS.
Realer than real armor. G rank armor. Anyway, earv, do you want to do HR5 keys or random farming tonight? I don't get out of work until 5pm, so I'm free any time after that!
Any words of wisdom regarding HR7? I am having a really hard time myself, first time I found myself really losing. I hardly have any money, and I thought my armor was pretty good, about 76-82 in defense each. And i currently lack the money to do much of anything. I guess part of it is learning the new monsters, first time I faced that Akantor, his beam and roar destroyed me lol

I'm switching between Charge Blade and Bow and I think i have a blade master Velicdrome set already. I went from that to Tetsucabra.

If you have a New 3DS then you can use the c-stick to move the camera and I believe you can also use ZL and ZR.
You can change what ZL/ZR do in the options. Off the top of my head you can have them move the camera left and right, function as up and down on the dpad, or as a chat shortcut and monster mark. Just look in the control options, it's all in there.
You can also change how the target cam affects the camera and if you want it to require a double tap as opposed to a single one. Beyond that, I can't think of anything else. If you want item shortcuts, you can put them on the touch screen.
What do I do with all those plates when I just want a friggin' tail from a tail carve? Stupid Shagaru Magala! ;/
I wish the thing would make a decent armour, but nope. Well it probably really is time to make and upgrade the Magala IG, since I have quite a few plates from both of 'em.
And I can't decide on which cats to use. Especially since they are so uneven in their performance, the same cat can go from being the quest hero to utterly useless in the span of doing the same mission twice. But they are cute and I like AI companion customisation, so I want to have the best palico there ever was!

the power shot is always 1 charge level higher than the shot you started your "combo" with.
unless your first shot is already max charge, then it's the same.
let's take gore's bow as an example. the charge levels are: spread(charge 0) - pierce(charge 1) - spread(charge 2) - [rapid(charge 3)]
so if your first shot is charge 1 your power shot will be charge 2. however, if your first shot is charge 2 your power shot will only be charge 3 if you have the Load Up skill active which increases the charge capacity of your bows.
damage is as follows: charge 0 = 40% charge 1 = 100% charge 2 = 150% charge 3 = 170%
now, i don't have the math to back my assumption up, but i think you're generally better off doing a charge 1 > powershot charge 2 combo, instead of charge 2 > powershot charge 2 (or 3) because it takes less time and stamina. charge is 3 is not really worth it, so you can safely ignore the Load Up skill, unless you want to use Seregios Bow.
edit: your elemental damage is much more important than your raw damage. you want to have one bow of each elemental to capitalize on your enemies weakness to get the optimal damage.

I was just super cautious. Used my CB shield a lot more than normal. Luckily there were some insect glaive users mounting since a lot of the fights are on flat surfaces. For Akantor at least, if you get hit once, get back to full health immediately. Each hit can do like 70% damage. I had Defense Up L and it still did that much. It's crazy. Teostra seems intimidating but you can get some good hits when it does the sweeping breath attack. When it drops the powder just back up. Kushala isn't that different from Rathalos/ian. Just watch the tornadoes. Dah'ren is the same. Super easy. Had everyone disconnect and did half the fight solo lol.
Main thing is just make sure your health is constantly high and don't take any unnecessary risks. Let the fight drag out if need be.

I recently got this urgent available, is the tell very noticeable for the beam?

Yeah HR is killing me here whether its guild or village. Monoblos, Rajang, Teostra, Anaktor etc all make me faint at least once with armor with about 380 defense and take anywhere from 15-25 minutes. I don't remember 3U being this hard so it's time for me to
I guess
git gud
great tips thanks
I'm a IG user myself so ill probably do the mounting myself lol
For Akantor how do you dodge that massive and long breath beam attack, it one KO me from the completely other end of the stage
and im guessing beating these monster give considerably good amount of armor/weapons maybe?
I guess I just need to be patient and need practice against them

You just have to run to Akantor when it goes to the other side of the map and then stay to the left or right of it to not get hit by the beam. If you know that it's going to the other side of the map after digging underground you have enough time to run across.

I have no idea how to dodge it. I super man dived through it. It seems like it'll only do it when everyone is on the opposite end of the arena. Oh and yeah these dudes can make some seriously good gear.

You should always be close to Akantor. Being a fair distance away from it is a death sentence. To track it's movements underground paintball it and zoom the map in.

Uhhhhhh... why is Gore Magala so hard?
I have armor that maximizes defense as much as possible at this point, upgraded as much as possible, then eat food to maximize it even more.
Gore is up on a cliff so I start climbing the cliff, he shoots a fireball through the ground which comes out the cliffside and knocks me down while taking 1/3 of my health. As I fall down he jumps down so just as I am getting up he claws me to knock me back down. Another 1/3 of my health gone. Then immediately, as I am on the ground, does the explosions move. Fainted.
I like challenge that makes sense. This does not. This creature has never made sense in its appearances in the game thus far. I am not the type to try over and over again at something that requires so much time between attempts and getting such a short, non-learning experience while in the battles since the only rule appears to be that he's ridiculously OP and if you get hit once you're just about fucked.
Edit: I mean just psychologically speaking this kind of boss makes no sense because he's so ridiculously beyond other monsters that if you put up with it, the others seem like a joke afterwards, and the main content of your game shouldn't seem like a joke.

It's powerful but is very limited in where it can hit. Stick close to it's back legs and only a couple of it's attacks can actually hit you. If it's on a higher level just wait until it comes down after you.

Nullberries? That use to be a quick way to make a lot of money in 3U. Farm them then turn around and sell them. even better if your farm is 3 stars
