What's the deal with the multiplayer likes? Does it have any impact on matchmaking?
How's the difficulty in HR quests? I´ve been doing early Hub and Village quests and so far it has been mostly pretty easy, only carted once against a Tobi.
I've been wondering that too. My friend and I have been duo-ing the hub quite a bit and we always give each other a like at the end, but does it even do anything?What's the deal with the multiplayer likes? Does it have any impact on matchmaking?
I'm quite certain the (S) stands for Small, meaning you get a small amount of health recovery after performing that melody.I think I'm missing something with Hunting Horn.
Certain melodies have a "(S)" after them and I can't seem to play them. For instance on the Kamura Chorus II the Health recovery ability (X+A) has a (S) after it and despite playing the notes multiple times, I never get the buff.
What did I overlook?
That's fine, but I can never get it to perform.I'm quite certain the (S) stands for Small, meaning you get a small amount of health recovery after performing that melody.
That's fine, but I can never get it to perform.
The X and A melodies perform but not the X+A, at least with this particular buff. I've used other HH weapons that had a different buff for X+A and it's performed. I've also been in groups with other people using the HH and seen the "Health Recovery (S)" melody performed, so I'm not sure what I'm doing (or not doing) that it isn't working for me.
What makes you think it's not working to begin with?That's fine, but I can never get it to perform.

It's a matchmaking thing. You will paired with hunters you liked more when possible. In theoryI've been wondering that too. My friend and I have been duo-ing the hub quite a bit and we always give each other a like at the end, but does it even do anything?
Ahh okay. Makes sense. So I don't need to like my buddy after every matchIt's a matchmaking thing. You will paired with hunters you liked more when possible. In theory
The "online cat" has given me multiple items already for the amount of likes I've gotten.I've been wondering that too. My friend and I have been duo-ing the hub quite a bit and we always give each other a like at the end, but does it even do anything?
Health Recovery isn't really something that stays in an activated state. You don't see it light up red or anything on your list of songs. It just heals you for a certain amount. Are you sure you're not healing? There's also a melody called Health Regeneration, which does stay activated as it slowly heals you over a certain period.The X and A melodies perform but not the X+A, at least with this particular buff.

You'll have to edit at the system level in the Switch (System Settings > Controllers and Sensors > Change Button Mapping).So I’m not really jelling with the controls, I always want to use Y to unsheathed because that’s what I use in most action games to attack. Is there a way to edit controls?
My problem with Sakura Slash is that you have to replace it over helm splitter, LS’s strongest attack.Sakura Slash is the fastest way to get into Red Bar imo. I suck so badly with counter attacking style of Long Sword so Sakura Slash skill is a mandatory for me to sustain Red Bar for a whole hunt effortlessly.
That's fair imo since it would be broken if those two are available simultaneously lol.My problem with Sakura Slash is that you have to replace it over helm splitter, LS’s strongest attack.
For me my big reason why I want to keep my gauge in red is to use helm splitter, its perfect move to cut off tails.That's fair imo since it would be broken if those two are available simultaneously lol.
I'm absolutely loving Heavy Bowgun. Nothing beats waiting for a perfect sniper shot and just getting the kill shot from 50 ft away while the rest of the group was smacking it.
I really like the recovery ammo as well. I can switch to it super fast, and end up healing teammates when they're still on the ground after they get sent flying. I don't really get hit all that much, and recovery ammo costs half a potion to make, so it's cheap and everyone seems to appreciate it.
But yeah, it's just my favorite weapon now. Pierce ammo is completely crushing. You definitely feel the impact when it lands on a very long or wide enemy and ends up hitting them like 8x per shot. Flying enemies can be downed more easily also. And after doing tons of damage, the monster turns to run towards you and you just land your silkweb counter and get even more damage. Loving it.
Pussy.
Sakura slash?! Lol even the names of the moves for the LS are weeb AF
Did i gave you the impression that being a weeb weapon is something that i hate?!Says the dude playing a "Trickster" in a videogame.

Ffs right now i'm playing with a weapon that has a final move called zero sum discharge
Ranged weapons definitely seem more suited for group play. I can't imagine using a HBG solo to take down a monster.I'm absolutely loving Heavy Bowgun. Nothing beats waiting for a perfect sniper shot and just getting the kill shot from 50 ft away while the rest of the group was smacking it.
Ok I’ll try that!You'll have to edit at the system level in the Switch (System Settings > Controllers and Sensors > Change Button Mapping).
Also remember that you'll probably want to swap the A button with B because of the X+A combination.
It works pretty well honestly. The melee attack counts as a block and does a significant amount of KO damage to the head. And my doge ends up jumping on the monster and getting his attention at least half the time.Ranged weapons definitely seem more suited for group play. I can't imagine using a HBG solo to take down a monster.
Why? if i remember well the bowguns have some of the best killing times.Ranged weapons definitely seem more suited for group play. I can't imagine using a HBG solo to take down a monster.
You're in good company, I spent 25 minutes looking for an elusive Barroth, granted he was my hunting target.Fucking hell just spent 20 minutes killing a Lagombi and I was meant to be hunting Great Baggi.
Whelp! After a few minutes my brain started melting cause the controller messes with everything from the system level.You'll have to edit at the system level in the Switch (System Settings > Controllers and Sensors > Change Button Mapping).

The complicated controls add to the difficulty. Sheath weapon and potion on the same button is a head scratcher and I wasted alot at first. I now cycle to empty slot to avoid burning a potion or item.Whelp! After a few minutes my brain started melting cause the controller messes with everything from the system level.
1. I wish they had per game mappings!
2. I just need certain things customized between sheathed and unsheathed. What does Capcom care how I want my setups? Kind of bummed I keep eating a potion because of the default setup...
I think it's useful for playing with randoms. In the courier cat, you can see players you've liked. I only play with my friends, buy I think that you can see the player you have like before on that menu, it make easier to find and play again with someone random that you likeWhat's the deal with the multiplayer likes?

S mean small, for example, Earplug (S) will only work on weaker monster scream, it means the buff won't work with Tigrex scream. For song that is an active song (as in not buff song), it will only trigger once so the text won't be red, you still get the effect though. For Health Recover, your health will recover directly but only for small amount. Another song that is an active song is Echo Wave.I think I'm missing something with Hunting Horn.

That's why you play Hunting Horn! Self Improvement make your weapon won't bounceMan Almudron can be tough even on village quest, most his body super hard and your weapon bounce off but its still fun fight.
I'm just not HH guy, I mostly play as LS or Lance. I just need get down his attack patterns so I can effectively counter his moves. I can beat him in village quest and low rank hub quest but I can imagine this guy is going to give me trouble in high rank quest.That's why you play Hunting Horn!
