Guy claimed he got it on his first carve from his first Jinouga.
Same here with Jinouga. - just farmed him for 5-6 times and complete armour.
Rathian plate is still a no go - I'm ignoring that low-rank armor completely.
One question... the monster intrusion events, how does it get triggered? We're getting the Rathalos + DevilJho pretty much... with or without taking out Aoshira.

Pretty sure the possibility of monster crashing is noted in the quest description.
This game is easy (finished all village chief quest + guild 3 stars using an armor DEF of 17), MH3 is way more hardcore. The evading window for the evade move in MH3 is way tighter than MHP3.spindoc said:
My hunting buddy commented that they ported everything over except the difficulty lol. (and underwater)
The village quests are a joke, the power band between HR 1-3 and H4-6 has a wide gap - but some monsters in P3 are too easy. More likely to see a 3G/expansion for it - can't deny Capcom won't milk this property.
Btw, in adhoc Jhen... we never get to see him on land? As Intended for coop or we just piled shitloads of ballistae at it?

The full Jhen fight is HR6 or 7, which is retarded.deim0s said:

i just did that quest, except no monster showed up after the warning, so i quit and it didn't count me as having completed the original quest! any idea?
i am seriously loving this game, by the way, but i've only really played it multiplayer so far so i'm a little lost by myself.

is there a cutoff? i did wander around after the warning for about 5 minutes wondering what to do.

Something tells me he's compensating for something else.
So what is considered more rare? Plates or jewels? I got 2 jewels from Jhen at the village elder quest. I think I already know the answer but I just want to confirm. The Jhen quest is really fun and epic btw, a stark contrast to the earlier attempts in the series with Lao-Shan. (ugh)
Yeah I'm not sure why they put an end CG sequence right in the middle of all the elder quests!

Hahahaha, yes, yes I did find the farm!
I do have some noob questions though, since this is the first MH where I use the bow:
- Do I do more damage if 4 arrow hit the target, instead of just 1? (My current bow shoots 4 arrows)
- What is the perfect timing to shoot your bow for maximum damage?
- Does range increase with certain bows?

Yes, each individual arrow actually has varying strengths. Top rapid arrow and middle spread arrow are the strongest ones.
Lv3 is the best charge for the quickest kill times.
Lv4 is better if you know the fight is gonna last long, in order to preserve your coatings. It's also there in case you're too busy dodging an enemy attack to fire your Lv3 charge.
No. The only things that affect the effectiveness across range is the arrow type itself. Spread is the worst at long range. Rapid works best at medium range, then the power quickly drops. Pierce is very close to Rapid at medium range, but its power doesn't quickly deteriorate the longer it travels.
Rapid and Pierce work best at medium range, while Spread works at close-medium. Power sucks at close range for any type, so don't go fire your arrows point-blank.

sorry guys, you're really going to have to explain this to me like i'm five years old, because i've tried this quest three times now and it never shows up as cleared. is there some way to quit the quest other than via the start menu, which is what i'm doing soon as i get past the warning screen? thanks...

won't i just wake up in bed?
it's worth mentioning that jinouga never comes, either!

When the warning sign appears, the monster is there (as you'll hear his/her roar) - you just have to scout around a bit.
Keep pounding and bouncing your weapon on Jinouga till you're knocked out, wake up, find him and repeat. Maybe you get lucky cutting and carving the tail at the least.

Hm, this game has some difficulty balance issues. In town quests I got really stuck at Jinouga, yet after that I had no real problems... not that it was easy however, it's just that being careful and prepared can bring you through most fights.
I managed to cut off Doboru's tail using a bow and arrow, default arrows.. perhaps this is only possible because it 'chips' off, instead of being severed in two as with other monsters?
Fucking awesome tho, now I can fight Tigrex and Diablos!!

There's tail breaking and tail cutting, much like how you can break and cut Agnaktor's tail in Tri.

CWCheat worked fine for me with the demo. I assume it'll work the same for the full game, which I do not have.

The US release. I wish they put some some edition with swag bundled, but I musn't get my hopes up.

Finally got my full set of Silver Sol armor, and upgraded it up to max! It looks shiny and great

I also got the special long sword from one of the low rank event quests. I did that a bunch of times because it only takes about 15 minutes if your gear is high level and maxed out. The sword once upgraded is pretty decent too, and makes a nice sound when it's used, heh.
