Even if someone joins my quest and carts, I'm still glad they joined something I wanted to do. Admittedly I tend to shower everyone with lifepowder to make sure the quest succeeds. I've got hundreds of it after production-linung the wycoon for the materials, even given handfuls of it to people in the gathering hall before
Well if you do the mix is XZXZZ. I used the Z greaves since it gives more or less the same skills as X but has 1 more gem slot which means you don't need a weapon slot.
Would you guys up for something else when done?
Just did my first multiplayer quest, HR2 now
One thing I don't really understand is what's shared between players. Obviously the Supply Box is shared. But is there a limited number of carves/gathers to go around? Also, carts are shared right? So if one player carts 3 times in one quest, the group fails?
Everybody gets the same amount of carves online or not unless you have a skill that allows you to get one extra (carving master from armor skills and felyne carver hi from the canteen)Just did my first multiplayer quest, HR2 now

If the monster have weakness to an element and you have a weapon with a corresponding element, you should go with elemental damage. Remember though that it'll be more effective to hit a specific body part that most susceptible to it.
I have it set up as one of my touchscreen shortcuts.
So 300 more element on a weapon is better than 300 more raw, if the monster is weak to said element?
The thing is, I haven't touched Hunter Rank yet, so we would both start from scratch when it comes to Multtiplayer.
Thank you for your help
Try the caravan campaign first, especially learning the basics- weapon combos, making a potion, cooking a steak, catching a fish, trapping a monster, buying and upgrading armour, that kind of thing. The online community is great at helping you kill stuff quickly, but really you should know that stuff first, rather than expect people to teach you stuff that you can learn on your own time. Once you can beat a large creature on your own, that's the time to go online, where you'll learn even faster but not be a total liability. At that point, being online will help you progress through the game really fast, but if you jump online first, while other hunters will be doing much of the damage, you won't have much opportunity to learn the 'tells' of each beast yourself as the other players will be beating the basic creatures senseless. Also, there are plenty of upgrades only available in the caravan campaign.
Leave it for now- there are specific quests for delivering eggs later on.
I've got about 18 lances

Ultimately you don't know what upgrade materials you'll gain first, so I find it takes the grind out of the game- I keep a wide variety of weapons and just upgrade them as soon as I can, without looking to upgrade anything specific. The monsters are so varied that the advantages of pouring your time into grinding out an upgrade path seems slight compared to enjoying the variety of weapons. My favourite lance is a giant shark paired with a no-swimming sign, and it isn't the most powerful (in terms of raw damage) by a long way. My second favourite is a giant crab claw on a stick, neither are what I would have chosen if I'd have looked at a table of 'best' options.
