I forgot to mention, the guy doing this video doesn't understand how damage is actually calculated, so his numbers for kick damage are wrong. He divides by the defense multiplier instead of multiplying by it, so he says the kicks do 9 damage per hit when they actually do 5. Also, although it doesn't actually impact the kicks at all, his explanation of the difference between true raw and the inflated attack values is wrong.

OK that's great and all, but that doesn't explain he second part of my question regarding if the Kinsect should just be relegated to buff delivery, because as far as it looks the damage is negligible so elements are right out and so does the base attack command/multiple attacks per deployment. Unless I'm missing something here it would just be better to have it out and in so you can get your buffs up and boost your damage, or am I missing something here?

I mean, it's not a Greatsword, but it is absolutely not lacking offensively considering how many hits you're unloading, especially if you match element. Also keep in mind that it's a melee weapon that can allow you to hit otherwise hard to reach weak points that might be higher up, so pairing it with Weakness Exploit might be more beneficial than on other weapons. Either way, compared to a normal Monster Hunter weapon, it's ridiculously powerful.

Also ignores that the data on kiranico is only base data. Monsters get a hp modifier and defense modifier based on what quest level they are in addition to their rage defense modifiers.

Stop being dumb and pay attention to what the monster is doing. Use your block wisely to guard against its digging, when it finishes a charge wait out the tail swipe then run up & charge a lv2/3 to hit the head or stomach, then roll forwards or block.
If that's too hard you can take some sonic bombs and lv3 charge your way to victory.

Longsword has a fair bit of freedom in Skill selections compared to other weapons. Focus is beneficial for building up the Renki bar, but not as gamechanging in my experience as it is for Greatsword. It obviously depletes sharpness faster than GS and so Razor Sharp or Sharpener are beneficial, but again, not as necessary as IG or DB will find it. Ultimately, it depends on your playstyle, though you can never go wrong with Skills that boost your offense.

I don't think anyone shits on gen explicitly for being easy, rather that evasion arts and styles are broken and completely destroy the core gameplay, and then the latter monsters are balanced around using these new features. G-rank using guild, no arts and no evasion skills is probably one of the harder parts in the series, if only becase every single attack is delayable and designed to track you until the absolute last second so you're forced to waste a ton more time moving then you would need to in the other games. Eva+ is also much more effective in gen than in other games due to the tracking and non consistent tells, but most weapons have a style which lets gives them access to their stronger moves much easier, or entirely new moves. LS for example gets access to a parry move which works against any blockable attack with absolute blocking (no chip damage or recoil) that combos into a extremely fast angle-able modififed spirit attack with a total mv of nearly 200 which additionally combos into fade slashes and doesn't force you through the extremely long sheathe animation of the regular combo, or GS, which allows you to draw into a heavy charge with natural focus that stacks with focus on your armor so you can unsheathe and do a heavy charge+follow up and immediately have your evasion art charged so you're in no risk of getting punished for playing like a retard anyway.
For reference with guild/no arts I might clear an average-ish quest in 10-15 minutes, using them I can push it down to 5 or less since I'm never under the slightest amount of threat from the monster and am able to absolute shit out attacks with much higher mv than I'm able to use (or able to use without getting punished) in guild. The difference is even bigger with G hypers and deviants, some of them are ridiculously hard with guild while using styles and arts just makes them a little troublesome at most.
>>14685085
LS relies on using the spirit meter to have decent damage since it relies on physical about as much as lance and the spirit slashes have the best mv for time, additionally, the r follow up from fade slash is really good for movement and position as well as damage, so focus is actually a pretty good skill to have. It's different to managing stamina with DBs or counter lance, since it effecticely has a direct impact on your mv over time, while stamina management is just a matter of playing differently. Still, in early game extra raw is more useful than better mv over time and most people tend to just spam the full spirit combo or the x->x->a combo instead of using the early r hits and fade slashes, so the points spent in focus are probably better off being put into upping damage.
>>14685108
Switch axe is just a spammier version of long sword with a burst damage attack, axe mode is a lot of fun but you only get good damage by staying in sword mode in hitting the monster with infinite combos like you're playing gen 1 GS. Charge blade needs you to get familiar with the pattern of charge phials -> charge sheild -> counter into discharge, but there's a lot more options for combos and movement than with switch axe if you want to have 'fun'. Charge blade is also pretty overpowered in terms of how easy it is to play once you realise the kick button (which you've hopefully already mapped to start) puts you into guard point state every single time with 0 effort. Still, you can get creative with it and try to sneak in regular phial hits instead of full discharges due to the weird arcs of the axe.

Challenger is always a good skill to have.

Middle blade hit is what it sounds like, 1.05 damage multiplier for hits with the weapon's center of gravity. Pretty good if you do land it or if you want to get even better with gs/ls, but don't stress over it too much. 20 good mid-blade hits = one whiffed attack, so as usual actually hitting the monster (and further more the right hitzone) is more important than losing time or missing while trying to get a one-off 5% bonus to a single hit.

>It's like you've never played a MH aside from 4, start was kick in every single game on the psp and the first thing you should do when loading up a nintendo console MH is to set kick to Start since opening the opening of the menu in combat (for ammo combining) has much more leeway than timing a crucial kick.
You open the options menu and set the start button to function as kick, like it did in every handheld before 3DS where the select button existed to open the menu. I mean I don't know if you're being ironic and snarky llike 'Hah, that's no real explanation dork' or if you're actually illiterate or something, so work with me here.

3b3322 No.14686404
>>14686362
Kick is just a shortcut for r+x with CB drawn so it will either do a transforming overhead in sword mode, or a transforming roundslash in axe mode, it can be used when neutral or to cancel during a combo as well. This is extremely useful to use in sword mode though since the GP comes out the moment you hit the transform overhead (as long as you weren't holding r first), and in 4U you're allowed to select your next action after the guard recoil.
'Kick' is usually a shortcut for x+a with a weapon drawn (roundslash with SnS, fade with LS, phial discharge with SA, melee bash with LBG/HBG etc.) but it's also the only way to kick with GS drawn, which allows you to combo into a side slap for a shortcut to heavy charge, so it actually adds different movement options in some cases.

It really is not, if needing dedicated servers is a selling point to someone coming into the game they're going to be shitters and get carried. At best they'll end up being borderline passable but still spout stuff like 'Solo is impossible!'. Without the boon of populated and dedicated servers (that don't require associating with reddit and using disagreement, cough cough 14691445) all that you're left with is an unbalanced and annoying version of MH3U that doesn't let you play the game around the original dynamic that the series was based on. MH4U is still one of the best titles, but it was the start of the dramatic re-working of monster hunter that led to XX and world, and anyone turned off by every single game from gen 1-3 that would somehow be okay with playing 4U is a pretty big pleb.

How come there are so many people, even decent players, asking how the hell you have two wystones then?
Either way the bigger issue is that verticality isn't easy to mix with the gameplay of the series when it started, which was the dynamic of having a large enemy with almost absolute priority over you that would punish reckless behaviour, but leave reliable time frames to either retaliate or recuperate after every attack they made. A lot of people complain about the water environments in gen 3, and the usual reason is more or less that 'the weapons feel bad to use', but the element of verticality also exists in underwater, which most people seem to overlook. It wasn't as prevalent in gen 3 though as the land segments were left untouched and there was an 'attempt' to balance the underwater segments properly around a three dimensional environment, instead of the pseudo-3D of gen 4 that also removed almost all of the normal play on maps.
This is an argument for mechanics of the series that make the game fun, but you can go further than that and take a look at the style and atmosphere of 4U compared to earlier games too. This is a much more subjective matter, but 4U was one of the biggest offenders of over the top power-suit armors overwhelming the armor options in favor of the (comparatively) low-fantasy aesthetic of the earlier games where you just had stylised plate with monster bits strapped on them for the most part. And I'm probably repeating myseslf here, but jesus christ the way the tech is displayed in MH4U is positively cartoonish. It's not like monster hunter ever took itself seriously, but it's a bit of stretch to compare flexing after potions, over-excitement from making tough, overcooked meat and talking tribes of cat goblins with god damn transforming recliner-cum-storefront-cum-carriage and still say the style is the same.

Good points, I've realised I'm speaking largely anecdotally from my own experience as someone who entered the series when 4U came out, and all but ignored the gathering hall until I'd finished as much of the village as I could.

I don't blame you, I have a bad habit of embedding more things into my sentences than I can actually articulate properly.
I was saying that monster hunter isn't a serious game, and as a not-serious game it had stuff like (Flexing, 上手に焼きました!/Mmm, looks tasty!, Felynes/Melynx) but the degree to which these things are silly or cartoonish doesn't even come close to the level of childishness seen in the stuff in mh4u (e.g. the wycoon's carriage). In other words, I want to say that the style of MH4U is childish and cartoonish, but I also wanted to anticipate the counter-argument that even in the first game you had talking cats and mysterious, ethereal voices commenting on your steak roasting ability.
There's a difference between a wacky Disney film and a bit of self-deprecating humor to remind yourself and your audience not to take things too seriously, and that difference is the point I wanted to make.

Yes it's entirely possible to start from 4U and still become a decent player and enjoy the rest of the series, but it's not what I would recommend to someone who knows nothing aside from what an image is telling them to try. That's why it's down with 3U, they're both valid options but they're not optimal. 4U because of the reasons I've been sperging about for the last hour, and 3U because of the localisation changes meaning a new player needs to be able to moon pretty well, or go through a game where they will get no enjoyment out of their first ever playthrough of village and LR/HR since they'll be able to just facetank everything.

I hated that so much in 4U. Even the airship seemed awfully designed and overly cartoonish, but it was nowhere near as bad as the caravans. It's just so out of place. Even Atrulka's fucking huge puppet "mech" in XX seemed more fitting with the series' tone than the Wycoon's carriage.

Try out 4U and then gen for a little while and you will immediately see the change in quality.
Gen is a rushed game made by a B team that pretty much cobbles up a bunch of maps and monsters from the previous games and smacks then into one. Even worse, gen doesnt even have a G-rank and its new hunter styles mechanic completely breaks the game in some cases.

If I wanted to mess around with bowguns, what charm would you reccomend? I was thinking of using the normal shot up one until I get the gem for it and then switching to either an improved dodge gem or that special ammo damage increase gem. Is ammo capacity more important for bowguns? I have been emphasizing attack at plus 5.
c3b45e No.14710101
>>14710088
Depends entirely on what you are fighting and what else you are wearing. Capitalizing on elemental weaknesses is key to bowguns so you won't be sticking to a single bowgun.
Ammo capacity is useful but always prioritize more damage over it.

>>14710178
Elemental shots are good because elemental damage doesn't have motion values to account for in the damage formula.
All elemental shots have a motion value for 5 of physical damage but the elemental damage depends purely on the hitzone. For LBG rapid fire elemental shots at critical distance can effectively flinchlock certain monsters.

The AI hasn't changed but the fact you cant just block the roar and instaflash the take off with SNS like in MHX+4U makes Azure Rathalos a complete and utter bastard after the 3rd and final flash.
Capcom completely fucked the playerbase due to flashpod cheesing that was down them removing flashbombs with their funny AoE that worked 60% of time everytime. Because of the extreme range you can lauch those retina scorchers via slinger without blinding everyone (Which kept the spam to a minimum in previous games i might add) it was possible to flash lock monsters indefinitely with no negative effects for the hunters and everyone capitalized on this. In short we earned this for making the fights trivial but the complete and utter negation of the flash effect makes certain monsters not worth it to fight anymore.
I don't need to remind you of the hell that was Frenzied Azure Rathalos or Rusted Kushala without flashbombs.

I'm the anon from a few days ago who didn't know he was g ranked, and I managed to beat him within a couple days of making that post. I used Rathalos Soul Armor with Reckless Abandon +2/High Grade Earplugs and Gaoren Coin. I actually don't think it took me that long. I brought 10 sonic bombs, barrel bombs, mega demondrugs/mega armorskins/power seeds/armor seeds and I generally went for charge attacks on his belly. He has enough openings to make that pretty feasible. The thing that usually hits me the most is the hitbox when he starts digging underground, and sometimes I get screwed by the wind pressure from it as well. Usually if I get hit by the wind pressure I'll just stand there and block with my GS and take the chip when he unburrows because it's not safe to try and sheathe at that point.

Sideslap? You mean pressing Circle (side swing attack)? No, I did not know directions and pressing charge made any difference, only combo timings where you sometimes get an uppercut with the GS for example, not sure when to pull them off or how. Granted, I've been playing blind with only asking anons in these threads once in a while recording my progress.

Not really. It sounds like they're doing the PC port in-house rather than outsourcing, and since they're aiming for an autumn release with that, they probably haven't been putting much work into a G Rank yet. Even if there wasn't a port in the works, 4G came out a year and a month after 4 did, and XX a year and 3 months after X did.

Work which they never had to do before and STILL took longer to come out with G Rank versions than the time frame you're talking about.
>They made AAA sales on this one.
AAA isn't a term used for sales, it's a term used to refer to the development/marketing, especially the cost and labor involved, and even there it's entirely arbitrary with no real meaning established. If you want to talk sales, right now the figure I'm seeing for World's worldwide sales is 7.5 million, which is just shy of half of lifetime sales of each of 4, 4U, and Gen. The key difference to keep in mind though is that unlike 4U and Gen, which got US releases months after launch, and 4, which didn't get one at all, World had a simultaneous worldwide launch with an insane level of marketing budget dumped into pushing the game in the West, to the point even here we were plagued with astroturfing shills for months. As a result, an overwhelming majority of the sales for World have been Western - last week's Famitsu places World's Japanese sales as of April 15th at just shy of 2 million, a number that, for reference, vanilla 4 beat in a matter of days, and both 4G and X did in about a month meaning 5+ million sales are to Westerners, a majority with no prior investment in the series whatsoever. The question that remains to be seen is whether that will translate into an enduring fanbase that continues to buy into World sequels, or whether it'll be a flash in the pan like the similar story of Lords of Shadow was to Castlevania.
>You can be your ass g rank is coming this year or like I said early spring at the latest.

I guess part of the reason is to give it space from punishing draw, there's also a minds eye jewel which is also a 4 piece skill turned into a 2 slot jewel. also much rarer

>black diablos
cut its tail and attack the stump, use sonic bombs while its digging then attack its wings, use shock traps to land big hits, hit its legs to keep it tripped up and so on.
>green plesioth
stunlock it with a piercing bow/shots, bait the water gun and cut its belly with a GS or LS, trip it and land a triple pound on it.

ah that's right anon, and that one is basically essential to any set since it's just a flat out 10% damage buff. It's common too which kinda makes it broken.

>XX throws the elite 4 at you in village 2 and 3
That was a nice change of pace, they took a fuckload of effort to beat. Gammoth beat my shit in since I didn't realize I'd be in the cold so long though.

I misunderstood your original comment and I understand why you're upset now. Yea that is kind of fucking silly. World is a weird game but I still like it. I think it's a good base to figure out what works and doesn't work and improve it in the next one. They tried a bunch of new shit and some of it works and some of it doesn't work at all. I think it's up to us to complain as loudly and obnoxiously as we can about its faults before the next one. I get the sense they are easing the dick in for all these normalfags that recently joined the series. I feel Deviljho especially tempered and Kulve felt like proper monsters, I also feel they are messing with the monster AI behind the scenes. Monsters definitely seem to trip less and spam their best moves a lot more recently. I have played the game sporadically because I don't care about High Rank but I definitely feel there is something happening with the AI, and the difficulty of the game in general. Decoration RNG is the worst aspect of the game in my opinion. They finally fix charms and then buttfuck decos by using pure Charm Table style fuckery with the gems.

Does anyone have a copy of regular Portable 3rd? One I can play on my Vita, not the HD modded copy.

What are those ? marks you can search for item at Felyne camps?
They say "I wonder if there is something interesting here" and always finds nothing.

If a Melaru (enemy black cat) hits you in the field and steals something and gets away with it, there's a chance you can recover it at those points.

Yeah, what the fuck, why make the amulets craftable and the decorations random? It's like they expect us to get bored without being able to collect shiny trinkets that are RNG only.

they want you to play the game more even if its artificially by shitty rng

So I can just plop it in like a regular psp iso? Neat, I thought it would give some unreadable error.

I just feel gimped. I got a decent bowgun, but I just wanted either that one gold karma light bowgun or that gluttony bowgun. I never got a chance to try for it again during the busier hours since I was working.

Are you all satisfied with the relics harvested from Kulve Taroth?
I got a great pair of Dual Swords, an incredible Insect Glaive, and a pretty nifty Heavy Bowgun too!
>>14734636
It has been changed. Now there's a finite amount of relics to drop.
