Indeed? So this DLC just to make Fatalis more accessible then? I guess that's fine.

It must've been me, though somehow I ended up in a copy of your room still in online mode. Weird.

Man, tonight was fun. Where did the time go? Jesus. MH is a scary series when it comes to that, haha.
Thanks for the games, PK and mzo. First time I played with fellow GAF members; it was great. As expected, of course.
Can't wait for future games with you guys and others!

I know, right? I was planning to go to bed early tonight. lol
Glad you guys had fun. Tonight was the worst for me. So many carts in every room, including me. Randoms just looking out for themselves. I got kicked twice in a row because I needed to change my loadout so we wouldn't have two hunting horns. They didn't wait 2 seconds. Just terrible. Ugh.
If we got enough people, I want do some Crimson Fatalis.

If we don't get enough people, we should try some arena stuffs lol
I'd love to lend a hand, but I'll be occupied at work for some hours.
I did get a chance to practice bowgunning Tigrexes a bit more, though. I've discovered that taking the limiters off the Seregios guns actually brings their normal lv. 2 clip sizes up to something respectable - 6 or 7 shots - which makes them a bit more practical in some cases. Light bowgunning Tigrex takes a couple of minutes longer and uses more ammo than heavy bowgunning him, but I do tend to take fewer hits. Using the Molten Tigrex or Seregios HBG takes about the same amount of time; the Seregios' auto-reload feature seemingly compensates for its slightly lower attack power. And it seems like the main reason I wind up taking hits from Tigrex in the first place is simply because I run out of stamina while dodging so many times in a row. So I swapped in some parts to my armor set for Constitution +1 instead of Critical Eye +1 to see if that makes a difference.

One spot open right now.
I just hope the next wave will have the Samus suit along with some G rank quests already.

Hmmmm that's interesting.
I practiced against High Rank Tigrex with second-to-last in the Rath line (Rapid Fire Normal 2s 4x, Flaming 3x, Crag1 3x), and it went pretty well, but I was still getting hit a decent amount. Being locked in place for 4 shots is just killer. I'm thinking limiter removal may be necessary.

Why do some weapons have a greyed elemental damage number? Is it an "inactive skill"?
Yes, you need Awaken skill to activate them.

Any suggestions for breaking Teostra's horns? I need the Charge Blade and I am missing 2 horns because they are impossible to break.

This. I was really hoping for the Samus stuff. Does anyone know if the Samus arm cannon is actually a weapon and what type it is? Or were there just some images?
The Samus arm cannon is a light bowgun. It showed up briefly in one of the videos and one could tell by how it sheathes and what looked like some sort of rapid-fire shot.
Damn it.

Thanks. Might have to learn some LBG then.
I don't know if it still applies but back in Freedom 2, you have to wilt Teo below 40% health or so to be able to break the horns.
Best thing to do is to get a group going to help you pile the damage to the head.

Those were some good games, but that Chaos Gore still hurts xP

With the Hunters for Hire thing, what determines how well they will do on the on the quest you send them on? Their equipment? Or Their HR lvl?

I believe I've broken the horns way before 40% using rapid fire Crag shots, so I don't think that rule applies in 4U.
But that's a great way to do it if you can gun - get a rapid fire Crag gun and melt his face off.
375 hours, and my circle pad pro battery still going strong.
They should at least make the Caravan Silver Los and Gold Ian G Rank smh
It still applied I think. If Daora or Teostra cut off, that mean soon or later their horn will be broken too, and so does the reverse. But no matter how hard you hit their horn or tail, they will be broken at much later point in the fight.
I want to use my Lance, then I remembered how that thing hit like a truck.
I think Chaos Gore is a ton of fun, but then again I like fighting Gore and he's mostly a harder-hitting variant. I wound up using some Mega Dash Juices on him though just because he really bounces around when enraged.
Yes you should. You life will be easier when you meet Nuclear Brachydios and know how to use at least one gunner weapon.
Indeed. I need to hone my remaining guns for defense ASAP. I got lucky/unlucky so that I almost only have zenith L gems, and I think it would be a shame to meld items with them to gain regular zenith gems.

Anybody want to do HR2 stuff with me? To make it go by faster.
I'm RandomMt on the game.

EDIT: Guess I should also mention that I like to do all the quests, not skip any.

If you need regular zenith wyvern, you could just hit the easiest Apex Monster: Apex Najarala. Zenith L is much harder to obtain, converting them to the regular isn't worth the headache after.Indeed.

Just beat The Caravaneer's Challenge. No carts, plenty of potions remaining.
It was still very tense, though.
You must be let Rajang do the cleaning job on Zinogre.

I only have 3 reg zenith gems i think? I'm not even sure what road to take with honing yet.
Yeah, that seems to be the most reasonable option.

Hey man gg last night. I'll be going for the HR5>HR6 Urgent (Black Gravios) tonight if you want to join we can do it twice.
Jeff Vader
Member
Yeah now that I think about it, would defense honing on dual blades make sense?
Extra 60 defense and a Divine Protection? That makes sense for all weapon except Evasion+3 Lancing.
Why not? It's basically just more defense and a built-in Divine Blessing skill. Might be handy if you're worried about taking some hits.
I'm liable to hone for attack on my remaining heavy bowguns just because I can always swap in a shield if I really need to avoid being clobbered. But one of my light bowguns is defense honed just because I use it against stuff like Chameleos who can hit hard if I'm not careful.

Guess nobody is interested in doing really low HR stuff huh? Understandable. I'll keep the room open for a few more hours maybe.
I used smoke bombs to take out the Zinogre first, without Rajang noticing.
Without the benefit of those, it might not have gone as smoothly.
What's the lobby number (14-digit code)?

I'm actually running around, baiting Rajang to use its Kamehameha beam on Zinogre. Took 15 minutes until Zin down, but it only takes less than 10 minutes to clean up the rest lol
I'll be there shortly.
EDIT: Erm... I doesn't seem to exist. Can you check again?
I didn't check the time, but it didn't seem to take awfully long. It's a good thing they nerf the health of monsters in multi-target quests.
