It's when players time out for whatever reason. I've noticed it happen before when everyone was ready, went into a mission, took forever, then one person had vanished, leaving us 3 left.

Maining Spear with Def Mitama and it seems really strong, might not be the fastest method but most of the time I only have to use 0-1 heals per large Oni.
Having a lot of fun so far
Gonna have to try this. I've been running out of heals since chapter 6 started.
I'm using spirit mitama btw.
If you still need the info, Sickleclaws drop the fire starters.

Yes. I love MH and I'm enjoying Toukiden way more than Soul Sacrifice.

Since I have a self imposed rule not to progress mp further than sp, I'm gonna collect some levels first.

if you like hunting games and got a vita toukiden is a no-brainer IMO. I've spent 150 hours in monster hunter and wouldn't consider toukiden any worse, just a bit different and slightly more straightforward.
can't comment on the endgame as I'm only 18 hours in (switching between single and multiplayer), but people said it takes 100h+ to platinum it. so yeah, buy it!
edit: and the graphics and art design maaan! some phenomenal armor- and weapon-designs + dat oled!
Good, because honestly Soul Sacrifice did not do a good job adequately scratching my MH itch

Yup, this is exactly how I feel. It still can't compare to MH imo, but that is to be expected since it's a first entry in the series. As far as MH clones go, this is definitely the most polished and fun one I have played so far.

Playing SS for 50 hours, Toukiden and MH3U both 20 hours each, I can conclude that SS is very different take on the whole hunting action game, while Toukiden have similar approach to MH but come up with enough differenting factor to set it apart from MH.I personally love all of them since I went into the genre with SS firs, Toukiden second, and MH3U third, but I can see why SS not satisfying enough to fill MH place for many people.

The most disappointing aspect of SS for me was the lack of armor and weapon crafting. Yes, you had different magics to collect, but they all fell into a small set of types. The arm sigils also weren't that satisfying. I liked the combat though.
Even as bow user, I know that feeling. Worse when you fight Shredder family on huge/long linear area.
Yeah, crafting and customization is always a big part of MH, an area that SS certainly lack at.

Agreed. I have already a huge list they can improve upon in kyoku but so far it's good.

SS wasn't really a MH clone to even do that for you (unlike lets say Ragnarok Odyssey and God Eater) as you you don't really go in a "hunt" journey. it's arena/boss fights sort of a game with heavy focus on story for its SP.

Mine is missing a super attack. I'd cuss and stuff when it happens and it happens frequently too whenever I target the hard to reach parts of bosses.
Tell me about it. They always move exactly when I line it up perfectly.
First time on Chthonian, I missed his goddamned fucking beads with my super! I still got them in the end, but holy shit! He like, spasm'd at the last second and my super hit him in the head.
I was just doing MP and missed on Terragrinder, too. You cant wait too long, because they will move, but if you do it too quickly, sometimes they jerk out of the way.
Awesome game though, I'm starting to get into the super versions of each boss now, it still feels fun. I like grinding though. Must say this is a much better game than SS, I platinumed it, loved the hell out of it, but knew it was flawed. This still has some quirks id love to iron out, but much closer to my ideal experience than SS was.
So far Bladewings probably been the hardest, while Chthonian was most fun so far.
I'm an Attack Mitama focused Spear user.

AI is very helpful. It works fine but better play is with humans ofc.
My vote goes to cthonian.
Bladewing ridiculously wide arc attack always get. It is the only boss that get me down without resorting to cheap charge attack.
It's still pretty solid due to NPC companion. They rarely die and do many things competently.

Any kusari-gama tips? Or videos on expert kusari-gama users?

IMO Toukiden is pretty good at scratching the MH itch. I'm finding it not as deep as MH.
MH >>> Toukiden >>>>>>>>>> Soul Sacrifice
I really couldn't get into Soul Sacrifice. Lol

I just noticed that there's a breakable part at the rear end of Viper Queen after she wriggled out of her shell......
Anyways, I am chapter 4, phase 4-2. So far no enemies grind my teeth in frustration more than terragrinder. So bloody annoying trying to target its part when it buries them so often later on and the AI keep attacking it regardless :/

SPT mitama Implosion proved to be crucial if you aim to break all Terragrinder apart. Pretty effective for both drag 'em out and break their parts.

Why don't you wanna play mp? It's so much better and more fun.

I've played through the demo in SP and I've enjoyed it so far. The NPCs do their job well enough against the enemies of the demo. I'll probably jump into MP when I get the full game though, because why not? Might try killing major foes in SP first though. I usually want to beat them myself before anyone shows me how it's done.

Tengu armor right?
Just press start and the home button. The Vita should take a screen shot for you. It help especially if you want to take a picture during a hectic battle.

Why do the weapons have an attack that they don't show you in the tutorial? Apparently dual knives and chain/sickle have an aerial slam down attack that they never once mention in the tutorial.

Yeah Tengu looks awesome. Fits my Chthonian Bow perfectly. Hell's Warden was a bit disappointing after Toukidens poster child.

This. I've been trying to figure out what that slam move is with the dual knives. I can only do it randomly once in a while.

In air left stick down + triangle.
It's in the manual.

Haha wow, can't believe I didn't figure that out. I bought the digital version, so not sure if it comes with an online manual.

I think every retail game when bought digitally comes with an online manual. Not sure though.

you'd think they would put it in the tutorial with all the other moves
then again you'd also think they would put a blacksmith in the online lobby... no wait, at least we have the book reading guy to update us on the exciting lore!
Even the retail version comes with the digital manual. It's actually more extensive than the actual manual it comes with lol.
Muchi Muchi Pink

If have a physical copy with a physical manual but it comes with a digital one as well. It's even more detailed than the physical one...
Edit: too late.
Yeah guild hall misses a lot. I'd place a bet that they fixed this in kyoku.

Well it's not exactly surprising given the limited amount of space the case can contain especially on a detailed game such as this.

Digital is 56 pages, the physical one is 12. Cmon!
