Charge blade has been my weapon of choice for the 25 hours or so that I've played, so switching to the bow has been interesting. I'm not really a fan, I prefer to go right in. This is my first MH so I'm sure vets will have more seasoned viewpoints...but I think they're bad. (Which could be a bad opinion haha)
broski, you hella hatin on this foo'.

Here ya go xD This might help you understand them a bit better. The main issue I have with them is the fact the attacks they do is based on the bow you are using.
Watch how he aims with it too towards the end of the video. He doesn't use a second analog as far as I know as well.

I only play with GAFfers and friends so I'll just leave my mounting shout as "But we just met..."
My mounting shoutout is "Sua mae foi mais facil" which translates to "Your mom was easier" in portuguese
:c
It's not ok to be funneh? :c

So, what are the mandatory sets in this game? Like the sets you get to make the game a bit less stressful. Anyone have suggestions?
And I've heard that Hammer kind of sucks in this one, Is this true?

Speed is justice. It lets you get all 3 buffs super quick.

It's not as easy to get KOs as in Tri, but hammer (and KO damage in general) is still fantastic.
Edit: In response to your other question, check this out:

How can I avoid being blinded/stunned by Gypceros' stupid flashlight head? So sick of that. Breaking line of sight doesn't work. The only thing is being far enough away, which isn't always an option.
That and I also hate Khezu who can stun lock you with his dumb lightning attack and then cart you in 5 seconds flat. Khezu is the first monster I haven't been able to beat the first time through. Thankfully, I'm not the only one.

Block it, roll through it, or dive through it.
Have you heard of Athena's Armour Set Search?

Will I get a ton of rewards if I kill as many Nerscylla during the hunt-a-thon? Trying to farm for HR armor.

Pure speed is the best until you hit G rank, where the bugs start getting really good passive buffs (like doubling extract time) that require hybrid diets to obtain.

Do the Roll/dive moves have to do with invincibility frames?

Beat Shagaru Magala in village today 
Alllmost triple carted. Rushed in to many times, and Shagaru punished me for that. Still using the Kaiser Blade and a Kut-ku/Velociprey combo armor with attack gems to get Attack Up L. I want the Gore CB but I need 2 feelers and I don't feel like farming Gore. I still need to do the Gore Magala urgent online though, so hopefully I'll get some feelers soon so I can forge a new CB.
Have to finish up some village quests I skipped, then it's on to the Daimyo Hermitaur

None, really. But the basic of basic is to get jaggi armor, then tetsucabra armor, then HR tetsucabra armor

Yes. You're completely invincible during a dive. Roll, there's a very brief window, unless you have the Evade+1 (or higher) skills.
Rolling has 2 frames of invincibility at the start of it and you;re invincible until you hit the ground during a dive.

Daimyo Hermataur seems like a good point to start in HR. All of his stuff seems to only require materials that he and the small ones drop so it shouldn't be a pain to farm.
But I'm only going for that Nargacuga armor for now.
Is there a later version of it that has more defense/skills?

Hit my first wall in single player.
Can't seem to beat the 6* Gore Magala quest, "Crazy Stupid Love".
I guess I should just craft something to give me more defense. Still using Rare 3 gear for my gunlance and bow set.
I get one shotted while I'm using the bow. It was fun at first but now I just want to get through this quest.

uughh...
same for me, but at the 8* urgent. that fight is just no fun whatsoever and makes me want to quit. you know, the bosses in the souls games were always the least fun for me, but the story/lore kept me going. MH is just one huge boss gallery. it's a blast with others, but a chore alone. for me at least.
yes, but i haven't tested it yet. i'm using ping's dex atm. no idea if athenas a.s.s. is better.
That Gore Magala is high rank. Yeah, you probably want to make a better armor set.
Seregios? That's one of the most fun fights in the game IMO.

When you hit a wall in single player you should just hop online and make progress that way. Get some better armor from farming online stuff then use that to have an easier time at beating single player stuff.
That's what I'm doing now at least.
Am I just a poor player trying to pin blame on anything but myself, or do Palicoes seem to be the leading cause of infinite combos? Going back and forth on whether or not I should drop this stupid Felyne, or keep it for the once-in-a-day helpful distraction that allows for Whetstone use.
I ask because friggin' Pink Rathian pinned me against a wall while enraged, then charged into it again as my Palico was above said wall, THEN charged into it again to kill me. On that note, I hate small areas -- Give me Dunes every day.

Pretty backwards advice in my opinion. You should be learning monsters in single player to not be a burden on your team in multi player, not relying on your team to carry you through it.

The brachy portion of this gore magala brachy combo orchestra theme is fucking awesome.
Also that gore magala picture is top notch.

Are you pressing anything when getting knocked down to get back up immediately?
Don't press anything to do a delayed wake-up, helps prevent getting hit again.
You could always dung bomb them out of those zones

What does the Stamina Kinsect do? I find Speed to be the most useful, with Attack the second, but I don't find any advantage of Stamina over the others.
Palicoes suck. Once I get 10 to level 20 and my ace to level 30 for the guild card awards the furballs will never join me on a quest again.
no it's not! :<
i get bleed status...wait for him to attack my palico so i can eat meat...he rushes me and stunlocks me to death or gives me bleed again. he's all over the place and all i can do is roll evade, which, suprise suprise, is terrible for bow because you can't charge attack anymore.
guess i better take a break for today, because i'm really salty right now :\

We posting up sweet MonHun music? Brachydios Swing is mandatory.
...Ten to level twenty? Oh jeez. I was hoping there was just an award for the Ace. At least I know it's not just me being beyond salty.
Don't mind me, just someone with 500+ hours who has not once thought to do this. How the frick. THANK YOU for this reminder.
All of it's bleed attacks have to hit you three times to inflict the status ailment. Roll as soon as you get hit with a scale to avoid the other two hits. If you can't get the timing down then just fight it close to an area exit.

So, I always assumed Pellet shots were kinda worthless and really only used for small monsters. I'm seeing a lot of love for it here now, though. What are the benefits of it? I feel like it would be a terrible idea online since you'll be tripping up your teammates.

Is it possible to get the same drops from breaking monster parts by carving them?

Still room? Need to do mine as well
Somethings you can only get from carving/capping, others from breaking parts, but some items (the most common usually) are on both drop tables.
