Yep! If it's anything like MH3U, you could get around 80 hours of solo time, and that's excluding re-doing quests/monsters to get better gear.

I take it the silence means there isn't xD
IN terms of skills for the weapon base...or just fashion?
Either, if you have examples for both I'd appreciate them being a newbie to the series =].
I used to mainly play great sword and sns, but I got kinda bored with constantly running around and dodging, so I finally started learning Lance, and holy shit, it's like learning everything all over again,it's such a different way of combat.
I really enjoy it, though. The feeling of just blocking through everything plus the precision and reach of the stabs is very refreshing after blade weapons for so long.
I love how the sparks fly, too. Lance just looks so intense and powerful!

Yeah, but everything is on Wiki. You need to look for most information, but you need to know the right places!
Head here for weapon progression stuff - this is an example for the Insect Glaive.
And head here for a site that can show you what monsters drop which materials - this is an example of Sharqskin Scale.
Good luck!
Apparently I'm wrong; very sorry. You do need the frozen map.
But I swear I got to it pretty early on... apparently at the beginning of 4*.
Yep, just unlocked that place, woo!
Thanks! Time to upgrade!
Much of it is just making the early sets from the monster encounters you manage to beat and are happy that you could farm them a few times without much difficulty. Early on make them all but many people head to the Rathalos set as their first main set. Its also the first set that kinda requires you to work hard to get your plates etc.
Then you start to fight much harder monsters and then you start to pick item sets that benefit your weapon skills, or supplement you class weakness.
Some are better than others, depending on the weapon you use.

Go here and start to filter the list based upon Gunner or Blademaster, then start to check the armour skills each set gives you.

Thank you very much
They got nothing on bullfangos.
Yes. Every multiplayer quest can be done solo.

Village quests and HR quests monsters have same HP right I assume? So doesnt really matter which G Jaggie quest I do
No. The Great Jaggi in the guild hall has more health.
The best feeling ever is playing matador and getting them to attack the monster you're hunting.

Does anyone know how/where to find a gendrome? I've found genprey everywhere but the gendrome is nowhere to be found!
Really wanting to upgrade my sword

Capturing it also gives a 15% chance of getting a feeler.
Breaking its glowing horns when in rage mode has 100%, I think mounting it twice should do the trick.
I still need 2 more. :/
Here!
I'm a monster hunter newbie. I've just been learning the ropes. I recently unlocked the expedition stuff and I've been doing the gathering missions in the new land.
I was on my way back after a free for all harvest quest thing, and I was trying to find the entry point and ended up climbing into some kind of nest. was an evil leaping mammal thing up there. I decided to fight it.
battled it out for a while, but didn't have many healing items and when it was apparently low it went into some kind of apeshit berserk mode and I died.
I've been using the longsword, after stints with the hammer and greatsword. it seems to be a good compromise between usability and power. I have a bone sword upgraded several times. I'm wearing mostly raptor armor (or whatever those things are called).
here's the big question I'm still stuck with: how do I change what items are in the two quickslots on the touch screen?

I have the mats to upgrade to either the Gore SnS or CB. Is one any better than the other in their respective type, or are both equally good?
So I unlocked the actual kill mission for Gore Magala last night. He's the first monster to cart me twice so far. Dude is really fast and I was blocking too much with my charge blade, that small damage you take from blocks adds up pretty quickly. I also need to use guard point more but I never think about it in the heat of a fight.
I think I also need to farm him a bit for materials for a new charge blade, so that should be a great time.

Nice!
Need one more. Don't know if Immaculate is still around since his post was like an hour ago
Felt like there was a lot more multiplayer happening back with 3U

Thanks guys. It was basically a death sentence going the entire duration.
Usually upgrade the one you use the most or the one that leads to another weapon you really want.
Crazy people usually just make and upgrade everything.
I'll help out.

Question about online.
So even though I'm on 4 star quests in single player I have to redo all the low quests in multiplayer to get my rank up?
I only played 3U single player so this online stuff is new to me.

Anyone?
Not all the same quests but yes, you pretty much have to rank up your HR to get access to the better stuff. If you managed to get through most of the story, you should be skilled and geared enough to steamroll them.
You may as well team up with others and get ranked quickly.
Start>Customize Panels>Options
In a sense, but not all of the quests will be retreads of the single player ones.

Took down Yian Kut-Ku (capped one), two Kecha Wacha, and a Velocidrome, all in one Expidition!
Yeah I can help you out.

Yeah, I use both but main the SnS. I was just wondering if the Gore CB is too good to pass up. Otherwise I'll make the SnS I guess.Usually upgrade the one you use the most or the one that leads to another weapon you really want.

Elemental Atk Up if you have elemental bows.
Abn. Status Atk Up if you use Poison, Sleep etc more.
You also pick skills that link to what bow skills you have, since bow have different coatings and charge abilities. The bows are usually pierce damage, so increases to that help.
Focus (I think helps with charging). Faster you get up the charge scale, the more damage.
Capacity Up Helps with more charge levels, which can make an extra level on a weapons charge.
Evade helps if something charges you. (Stay as mobile and do hit and run for most bow encounters.)
Unless the CB is a massive step up from what you have, usually safer to go with what will help you progress, skills/damage wise.

What does "Gloves Off" do? It says greatly increases weapon attack when certain conditions are met. What are those conditions?
Also, anyone down for some HR3 to HR4?

Really? I know that's the bread and butter combo for GS, but that doesn't take into account the new super swipe at all. I thought with that people would start looking for new ways to use the GS, but I guess not.
Cheers.
