They're bath boosts. So you have to manage to luck out and meet them in the bath while having the appropriate relationship level to obtain their boost.

Tatara can give you Armory or the weapon equivalent(Man at Arms I think?) which boosts the rate your armor or weapons "level up".

Shusui has Appraisal.

Shikimi gives Greed.

Yamato increases the chances of obtianing Mitama.

The 6 combat NPCs each give a bonus that affects their weapon type.

I forget Kikka and Yu's abilities =/

hmm. is there a list/site that has all this abilities listed?
there should be a selection in the menu that allows us to know what's active too!

damn. I thought talking to Yamato before every battle would give me that Mitama bonus... lol that's why I kept doing it (and kept getting Mitamas)... only to release it's all a big lie. lol

But I talk to everyone every time I go back to the Town/HQ... not sure if that affects anything

You can see what's active, though ._. these are standard ability boosts, so they're in your ability list highlighted blue like any other bath/offering box boost.

These simply replace the boosts you normally get from the bath so long as you have high enough relationship with the person you encounter. Not sure if there's a comprehensive guide on available boosts, though. Translated, anyway.

Also talking to everyone before going on a mission will help you increase your bond with them. Shusui and Yamato practically require that you do this or encounter them in the bath to actually get them maxed.(I finally maxed Yamato earlier so all are maxed now, woo!)

Yeah it's unique I believe. Looks pretty cool, seems impossible to get the Rosaries from Abyssal Fiend though... no luck yet haha. And he takes ages to take down as well.

I'm probably gonna call it a night Scher, thanks for your help earlier though!

Ha, that timing :p no worries, they were 2 pretty long fights.

I got a rosary drop almost every time I killed him. The hardest part for my heaven set was the golden skulls. I figured the rosaries was one if his common drops.

It's not. I've killed him 5 times and not had any. Got heaps of Golden Skulls from Cerberus.

Strange, just fought him for the first time and I got rosary. Maybe we should hunt Abyssal Fiend tomorrow, as I'm looking forward to create Heaven set as well.
By the way, is Golden Skulls an ingridient for heaven helmet? Out of the set, only the helmet that dissapeared in my list.

If you're going for Heaven's set upgrade (Deity), you might want to save yourself the trouble. Compared to the second best craftable set (not an upgrade):

Today I learned the hard way that, in that solo mission against a Bloodhunter AND a Skyshredder, if you take more than 10min to kill the first the second will come out anyway.

3 missions to go, all solo. Maxing out bows and ignoring other weapons bit me squarely in the ass. Had to make elemental gauntlets to get the mission done.

Reached Phase 9 earlier. Abyssal Fiend has some array of moves at his disposal.

When does Amaranthine King become available? Think I will play up to that point then drop it. I've enjoyed it but it is starting become a bit bland for me. A lot of the battles feel very similar even when the bosses are mixed.

Wohoo, got my pre-ordered copy today. ^^ Imported my demo save (10 hours from it alone?!) and I'm ready to sink lots of time this weekend. Question is, should I play the single player story or try to catch up with you guys on the online quests? I mean, how far in the game are most of you?

I'm on phase 6 and it's hard for me to progress since most people are well past it and the online userbase is tiny. Only like 5-10 servers up max any time I check. I wish ToukidenGAF was even half as big as MH3UGAF :(

You're going to want to get at least somewhere decent in the story due to quests to expand inventory and the like. The final materials chest quest doesn't appear until you reach the final story mode chapter. I'm starting to close in on my 500 limit and just need this damned Flameice dragon to drop for max -.-

I'm only in Phase 7 MP but a number of people here appear to be in 8-9+

Edit: Oh, also there are some valuable features like Mitama levels and the Forge that will require you beat Chapter 5 in story mode, too. I don't think MP phases unlock those either(someone who's focused more on MP than story mode could clarify though)

I've just been rushing through the phases right now primarily through Single Player mode to catch up, myself x.x Just doing enough missions to unlock each phase(until now where I'm stuck repeating this one mission trying to max my storage lol).

I would recommend doing the first couple of chapters in the single player before venturing online. Will give you a good approach to some of the bosses. But you can go online anytime you feel like it, always lobbies with people in the first couple of phases.

If you want to focus on MP, then go for it, though SP can net you some interesting item.

Don't be sad, get glad :D I'm trying to finish off ch4 in mp, but am close to beating 5 or 6 in sp. I haven't the time I wish to have for this game, and I also thought I was just getting left in the dust. Hell I rarely play with anyone here cause sometimes I can only do like 2-3 missions at a time, and it seems it would be too inconvenient for people. I rarely do pubs, either, for when I want to play I want in NOW, and I know the ai won't scree me over. Though, they have been acting reaaaal dumb the last few hunts...

But I wanted to make this totally separate. I'm creating a room now, I am halfway through phase 4. Will keep it open for a bit before I start doing missions the ai way.

I'm quite ahead of that, myself (phase 9), but if you'd like someone just to help you progress a little faster, I can come join you for a couple of missions. I can't stick around for too long, though, because I've got some other stuff I'm trying to do.

I wish it was more apparent when there are hidden enemies. I didn't even notice the umbrapod, and I could still use an item from it.

Edit: Alright, I think that's enough for me, now. I stuck around a little longer than I had intended to. Got some reading to get back to.

If you're looking for Golden Skulls you should just be farming Cerberus instead. He gives heaps of them as well as other stuff that you can sell for tonnes of Haku. So much easier than hoping for Shadow Souls to spawn.

Killing the shadow souls in the training mission counts toward the quest, iirc.

Alrighty, so I'll go with some single player phases/chapters before jumping into the online mode. I wasn't aware that there are specific quests for unlocking stuff live inventory spaces and mitamas.

Also, another question - are there any trophies I've missed when I imported my demo saves? And if so - how to obtain them?

The only trophy you've possibly missed is the trophy for clearing chapter 1. That trophy can be unlocked by simply redoing the last mission of chapter 1.

So I know numbing breastplate comes from an astrapryex or whatever according to the item search, but is it only obtainable in Ch6+ missions?
