Sure I'm in the mood to wishlist. I want Switch MonHun's plot be about survivors of a natural disaster making a settlement somewhere and they choose to make you guildmaster of the village hunter's guild. By being a guildmaster of your village you can create contracts that both human player and AI hunters can attempt to accomplish. For human players you can set restrictions like time limits, hunting ground season (a set type of environment like more herbivores, prey, ect.), main and side objectives. You can even set main objective to break a monster's part to complete the quest. Also you can set challenge quests and "loan" a preset of items and gear needed.

Except the only thing tri did differently was adding in pseudo-optional water combat and re-skinning the palicos. Every single other thing was pretty much straight up identical to gen 2 aside from massively reduced content. I don't mind that MH team was trying to cycle content to avoid the games becoming a clusterfuck like XX, but they really cut too much out from vanilla Tri.
Tri is looked on poorly mostly because it was the first monster hunter in a long time to receive a console release and basically the first monster hunter to get any significant western media coverage, largely due to nintendo's influence. This meant that a lot of shitters starting playing in Tri, not because they were new, but because they decided to play it coming in from adverts, spots on 'gayming tv shows' and straight up just from it being on the wii.

It chugs during intense multiplayer hunts, specifically with elder dragons. Multiplayer is also unplayable with randoms due to their amazing ability to triple cart at the drop of a hat when facing anything tougher than an Odogaron. Teostra's supernova and Daora's tornado spam can cause stuttering and hangs but its pretty playable otherwise. That said there's also Paolumu's spawn location in Coral Highlands that almost always drops frames to unacceptable levels. Oddly enough spoiler dragon's laser spam doesn't make my computer melt.

Yeah I don't buy it, I'm running Guild greatsword and having about 25 minutes average clearing HR village quests, sure I didn't notice much going into LR but I'm near the end of HR and it's starting to show.
The most recent MH I just got through was p3rd, and the only time I would take about 20-30 to clear a quest was on the Guild Hall, when I was still grinding for better equipment, granted, that one doesn't have HR village.
But if I switch styles I can that time down to about 15-20 minutes by spamming brave or going aerial spam.
I remember getting about 15 minutes hunting a lavasioth in FU G-rank and in XX a village quest with him took me almost half an hour.
So unless there is some proof to this I'm going to take it as I see it, monsters have their HP inflated to accommodate the players new more damaging options because this is the only way they found to "balance" it.
Gravios is probably the best example, I picked brave first time against him because of PTSD and all you have to do is wack his torso with true charges and start holstering your weapon every time he does any attack, then you go back in and repeat, they didn't bother to change him in any significant way, High IQ gameplay that with brave still lasted me some solid 20 minutes of "fun".
But hey, show me Guild TAs to completely blow me the fuck out.
Also what I meant was that the argument of "it's only optional" is a terrible one, both in defense of XX and World, and in the case I'm right about XX then it's an even worse one because if so the game was built around the new arts and styles.

Actually the base HP value is 4000, and the first quest he appears in is Village 5 and has an HP modifier of 0.6, putting him at 2400. That's a Low Rank quest obviously, with his Village 9 having a 1.0 HP modifier for the full 4000 HP.

Going by Kiranico, it looks like it's just a flat modifier for all Lows, Highs, and G's, which seems a little odd since that's rather different from how much more spread out even within the same rank FU's modifiers were. Still, if those are accurate, in 4G's first encounter at Low Rank, he's at a 0.55 modifier for 2420 HP, putting him an ounce above his FU counterpart in terms of raw health.

4U is the more engaging experience. As fun as the styles in Gen and XX can be, they're not really well balanced and styles like Adept and Brave can make the game trivial.
5e2cc9 No.15340962
>>15337757
For most weapon types, using the more traditional Guild style (generally 4U's moveset and controls, aside from a few weapons being a bit different) or Striker style (generally 3rd gen movesets, sometimes with a few less moves, or one of 4th gen's new moves - though a few weapons break this trend and neuter the weapon heavily) combined with the evasion arts to replace the need for Evasion+ or Evade Extender and in some cases a buffing art (like Lance's guard rage, or any of SA's buffs) is a highly viable, if not optimal playstyle. Guild + double evade feels like a faster paced and more aggressive version of 4U, and Striker with double evades and a buff art feels like hyper-aggressive P3rd or 3U. It's still different than the older games, but it's a lot of fun and feels similar. The arts are complained about a lot more than they deserve. The vast majority of arts are extremely weak and nearly useless, especially most of the super attacks, but people here complain about needing to use the attacks to do viable amounts of damage all the time without realizing that using them has little effect on your damage output because they tend to be fucking garbage. The evades are the ones that are actually broken, and there are a handful of good buffs.
The real major problem with the game is the styles, not the arts, because Aerial lets anyone use any weapon to mountspam and easily cheese their way through all of lowrank and most of highrank, bushido style gives you a free evade+infinity and makes it require almost no skill to evade most attacks and rewards you for fishing for evades. And then neither of these even come close to brave style. Brave style gives an absurd DPS boost because of having much better movesets and/or much stronger attacks, and has "Brave Stance" which is a sort of guard+evade hybrid where you just hold down on the sheathe button and stand still, with stamina being quickly drained and HP slowly drained, and then if you get hit you do a pseudo-evade where you still take a reduced amount of damage and do an evade animation. The only way it could possibly be more casualized would be if it let you automatically evade any attack without needing to stand still in Brave Stance and without any consequences for using Brave evades instead of regular evades. Fortunately, Capcom fixed this glaring oversight when they created the Temporal Mantle.
>>15338036
>Monsters have a ton of HP to make up for your arts and styles.
This isn't entirely accurate. They have more HP compared to 4U, but weapon raw values are also much higher than in 4U, and higher tiers of sharpness are also much more common and much easier to get. It's also much easier to increase affinity in XX, and there's also Crit Boost to increase critical damage. Because of this, in XX, you generally have higher raw, better sharpness, higher (sometimes even >100%) affinity, and more damaging criticals than you would in past games - this is the main reason monster HP is higher.
>>15340334
Generations is an anniversary spinoff game, and has a lot less content than 4U. 4U is the better game overall and a much better starting point. Since Generations and XX are anniversary spinoffs, they're both terrible starting points, since their main point was to try a lot of new stuff to shake up the system and partially to be a nostalgia trip for longtime fans.

I think the worst part of MHW is the charm/decoration swap. Skill variety and armor building is already pretty weak with the skill redesign, and they didn't have to make it even worse by locking simple decorations behind RNG and turning charms into boring craftable one-skill no-slot items. On the other end of the spectrum, investigations handing out gems and plates like fucking candy trivialized any sense of rarity to monster drops or achievement in readching the end of an upgrade path.
THe new engine doesn't feel as nice to play either. It's very "AAA" and by "AAA" I mean the camera likes to position itself over the shoulder and your character moves like a fucking boat. At no point did it ever feel like the old games where controls and attacks were tight and precise and mastery was like performing a dance. It was less my own skill with the moveset and more just an explosion of sparkly bullshit that overwhelmed the monster because I pressed X three times in a row.

I like the new engine. sure it could use a little polish and refinement, but overall i hope they continue to use it. They need to work on the online systems though. Pretty pointless to have a bunch of little rooms, and rooms max out at 16 which is also pointless. A chat system that doesn't take 3 clicks to activate with less characters than a twatter post is also a shame
Charms are dumb, but whatever, wish they were craftable, something to use up all the materials they throw around. I'm not sure if a vanity system would be very good either as it would just make the skill system a tacked on thing and everyone is running around as sluts.
The weapon trees need work though. they all look samey, just the base weapon plus shit tacked on. Very few complete redesignes using actual monster parts like previous titles.

To be honest behemoth was a pain in the ass to kill, the fact that monsters later in the game no longer move like fucking robots but instead jump, run and pounce around like kids with ADHD makes the game almost a nightmare to deal with either alone or with a team. Compare that to monsters in the previous games that move around like robots with incredibly simple movesets and therefore had incredibly predicable patters. They were fun to fight too albeit a bit slower, now that MHW is faster in general there are no longer any breaks on the monster rape train.

Can't speak on Behemoth or Lunastra specifically since I haven't touched World in months, but if you honestly think anything else in World is at all faster than, say, Tigrex or Narga, you're simply full of shit.
>now that MHW is faster in general there are no longer any breaks on the monster rape train.
It's also just a completely different style of game at this point, which is why it should've been a spinoff instead of replacing the series.
<In a thread about a game that almost relies entirely on RNG when it comes to getting loot to upgrade and progress through the game
Admittedly, there is the possibility of real world luck just completely fucking you over, but regardless the scale is completely different. Even the rare special parts have at least a 2% chance of dropping, with multiple chances per kill/cap, and then on top of that usually get extra chances from breaks, tail carves, shiny drops, and quest rewards. Moreover, if you're looking for specific parts, you focus on the specific monster. The way Decorations work in World, you get them completely unrelated to what you're hunting beyond tier level (i.e. it's not like if you're trying to get, say, a Fire Resist decoration, you should be hunting fire element monsters,) and since it can pull from theoretically any of the games' Skills, including the armor set Skills, the chances of getting what you're actually looking for get MMO-tier small. Another important thing to consider is that with hunting a specific monster because you want to build their weapon/armor, you're making progression most times you hunt them - there's a real difference between "OK, I got 3 of the 7 shells I need, I just need 4 more and the heavenly scale" and "Fuck, got a bunch of meaningless crap decorations again, that was a complete waste"

All the DLC in world has mad the game harder and harder. Behemoth and Arch Tempered Teostra both game me and my friend a rough time to finish the armor set. It has my hopes up for the eventual G/U version. The RNG shit is bullshit but could easily be fixed by letting you meltdown a bunch of your garbage decorations to get specific ones you just had bad luck with getting.

If I played 3U up to Lagiacrus, did I experience most of the game? I kind of got the impression since he was the big villain and the guy on the front that anything beyond that was filler or post-game. But now I look it up and there's still like half a roster of monsters I never even fought. I just want to know if it's worth returning to after I finish World since I did enjoy it a lot. Also does World ever get bad? So far it feels like a big budget 3U with some QOL improvements.

Had a crazy ass dream where I fought a "Yian Pazuzu". Why have a kut-ku named after a babylonian god? This kut-ku has a very short tail, but stands tall on his hind legs with near-human proportions. Yian Pazuzu has massive wings he folds like arms to make shields. Or he can create fire tornadoes with his breath and one flap of a wing. Also Yian Pazuzu's wings are ionized. So one wing creates twisters with negative charge, the other positive charge. Which means flapping both wings makes thunderstorm tornadoes.
TL;DR: Yian Pazuzu is Kut-ku with an ego who hit the gym and can create fire-thunderstorms.

What's the best Monster Hunter for someone looking to get into the series? I don't mind having to look at wikis or whatever. I understand there's a big learning curve and am okay accepting that.

Portable 3rd and Freedom Unite are both solid starting points. P3rd is a little more refined with a little less content, while FU has a ton more content but can be a little hard to go back to if you're used to the later titles. If you're interested in checking out multiple titles in the series, I'd say start with FU, but if you play only one, go with P3rd.

Go with World since its the most accessible but keep in mind that its considerably easier than its predecessors. If nothing else, it'll whet your appetite for the monster hunting genre. Otherwise look at OP and try one of the PSP games since its easy to emulate, if you can deal with the shitty resolution and textures.
If you want a good monster hunter with decent graphics that isn't World then look at any of the nintendo home console versions, there's one for the WII, one for the Wii U, and one for the switch coming out soon.

3 and World are the best to start at.
Don't be fooled by the fags complaining about World. More than half of the people here complaining about World haven't even played it. The Environment building in World is absolutely phenomenal. I play with a mod that removes the flies. The game is not really any easier than previous games. They just turned low rank into a kiddie pool, so hacks ITT will pretend like the game is only low rank. Then they will point to speed runners as proof that high rank is just as easy.
The one thing I wish World did different is that they change the Tempered monsters into Sub-Species. As tempered they just get a flat damage buff that forces you to play timidly rather than adaptively. Sub-Species came with different move sets and were much better end-game filler than Tempered monsters. Also I feel like decorations shouldn't have been put on the RNG chopping block.

It kind of is, since High Rank in World is the equivalent of Low Rank in regular Monster Hunter games.

I've been a Longsword main since Freedom Unite so I know how bad a spammy LS can be but holy shit the ones I've encountered online in World are truly the worst. No etiquette, no grace, trips only. Almost as bad as the glaive baguettes in 4U. It seems like whenever I use Hammer or SnS there's some LS right behind me to trip me out of a combo. I don't know how they do it.
A close second goes to Charge Axe shitters that go for the head when a Hammer user is on the team because "muh impact phails." I remember this one host during an SoS Daora mission kept going for the head and tripping me out of my charges and big bangs. He ended up triple carting during the tornado spam after putting me through 25 minutes of suffering.
Pardon the blogpost, I just got out of a mission where an LS user kept tripping my out of my SnS combos.

They only heal up to a certain amount I believe, and not too fast, so you can take your time to prepare. But it's still better if you manage to hit them while they're asleep, since the first hit deals double damage.

I get more use out of charging my shield with impact phials than hitting the head with discharge slashes. Maybe because I was a switch axe main and know how to sweet spot I never saw use of impact on head as much. I have too much fun super guarding with round and morph slashes. My main attacks morph between axe and sword mode because axe drop after super guard is useful. Then dodge, and maybe get one phial horizontal swipe (the fastest one) before round slash.

Hammer is a burst damage beast if you can land hits. As mentioned above, the aerial spinning attack shits out damage and can both stun and mount. CB, IG, LS, DB, SA, and Bows are your nemeses when it comes to inconsiderate hunters and tripping potential.
Hunting Horn is the most lethal "support" weapon ever made, it can stun things that are inaccessible to the Hammer's anemic range. A word of advice is to memorize your horn's songs. Even though they're displayed on the HUD in World it's better to have the songs memorized for quick execution.

So is that 8% chance for each horn you break or a 8% chance if you break both horns? I'm going to assume that it's the former.

Worldfags won't know the feeling of having a hunt go down to the wire with you having no resources left, time's running out and the monster just started limping

If you can't read Japanese hurry up and git gud, you'll need it sooner or later you can still figure out with a little mix of pattern recognition and copy/paste. For instance:
http://www.mhp3rd.net/book/deliaburosu.html
Here's Diablos' page, which lists among other things his drops. You know that breaking his horns has a 92% of dropping one kind of horn and an 8% chance of dropping the better kind, which makes it clear that the data you want is
>92%:ねじれた角
>08%:上質なねじれた角
Just copy the runes that are the name of that 8% drop, and head over to the list of all quests for any given level. In this case, since Diablos starts showing up at Village 6, head over to:
http://www.mhp3rd.net/quest/q-mura1-6.html
Use Ctrl+F with the copied runes and you'll find only one quest has it as a reward, a 7% chance at that. Don't know which one? Look at the side that mentions Zenny rewarded/required and a little to the right of that are the monsters that appear in the quest: Diablos and:

So the changes extreme behemoth has are few but considerable. All meteors cause defense down on being hit without guarding. It has one additional move that acts like the pinning ram, cept its a quick headbutt to the ground. Charybdis has a shorter cast time, flashes only work 2 or 3 times.

The more I see of World the worse it gets, was watching my friend fight Rathian and her tail spin has a massive tell now that lasts like a second to or a second and half, completly nullifying its ability as a move to knock hunters away from it since it's so easy to evade it now. Seriously, this one change is enough to nullify everyone that says it's harder or faster because the main combo breaker/area denial attack is this heavily telegraphed. Oh and Bagel showed up during the fight and nuked Rathian for free damage before fucking off, didn't even stay a minute, no dung bombs were used either, it just came, dropped some bombs and flew away after making Rathian's day more miserable than it already was.
Zorah is massively scripted and somehow managed to be the most boring massive boss fight I've seen. You have to stab magma cores in order for the first half and the second half is cannon/ballista/dragonator only while the NPCs don't shut the fuck up about what to do. Long gone are the days of clawing at Lao Shan Lung, navigating the fortress and just doing everything in your power, everything you feel is correct to bring down this giant ass monster before it can destroy the fortress, now all you do is follow the damn script like an actor.

I've actually counted lance poke frames a long time ago while figuring out if X/XX guild style third poke was actually worthwhile when using an element/status heavy lance and I can assure you that that's not true. A perfectly timed counter only loses a handful of frames over a standard poke while step+poke costs you a full second or more at best. Are you sure you've actually played lance? You're not just one of those gen4 eva+3 'lance-main' shitters are you?
Regardless of efficiency, if you're just playing evade+ lance because of its efficiency and not because you like playing it, why not just drop the whole charade and go to HBG or GS, which are usually the most efficient weapons in any game, or bushi DBs in x/xx for full blown auto-play mode. Although it's a bit of a laugh to go all-in with counter lance instead of simply using counters for weak hits or as a last resort to save yourself from overextending, there isn't anything inherently wrong with using it, like how using HH to hit anywhere on the monster's body is inherently wrong. The best plays with lance focus on offense skills anyway instead of wasting 15 points on either eva or guard. However, to get back to the main argument, certainly past gen 1 GL is the only weapon which you would consider using your standard block as anything other than a last resort option, and even then you're better off using lunging charge+hop to get out of the way of stuff.

I can see your angle on that, but at the first barrier they tried, didn't he come up from underground? So he can clearly burrow to an extent, if it's not properly sealed he can probably just shove his way through the debris. Failing that, that also eliminates basically anywhere the hunters would have to stand and fight him, there's no suitable terrain before the stream other than the cliffs, and once he passes those, the cannons would go to waste. There's the ship, too, but if he decides that is a threat instead, at his size, he could capsize it without even trying by just walking over it.

You either have a barrier that makes sense but was impossible to build in the timeframe, or you have a barrier that's makes sense in how it was built but makes no sense when you see the monster shooting fireballs and setting the barrier on fire yet the fire does almost nothing outside of the charged barrier buster attack.

Why are single shot ammos even here, the Jagras rifles are trash. None of them do enough damage to justify slow reload and single shot.
Why didn't they just replace the shield upgrade for a bayonet upgrade so we could melee 2x as hard?

Was just a stupidly balanced quest in general. The monster's not a challenge, they just put an arbitrary time limit on it with health values that simply aren't practical to cut through solo. It's damage output isn't that high, and it's attacks are all incredibly heavily telegraphed.
Admittedly, I can't speak on Lunastra or anything that came after, as I quit playing before she got added, but considering what a cakewalk Teostra is compared to his original self, I don't have my hopes up for her. Either way, it doesn't fix the fact that the entirety of the game as shipped was a steaming pile of shit.

To be fair I hardly had a problem with mh4u until g rank.

b9aaf2 No.15361144
>>15361129
4U also has rather low monster HP values, and the hunter is while not as ridiculously versatile and mobile as in World, still a far cry from the PSP titles and I would say even 3G. Also, a lot of old monsters simply got screwed over with the variable heights of stages, and the employment of aerial attacks and mounting, especially with the Insect Glaive.
>This game simply needs an ultimate version.
While that has the potential to save it in theory, the audience Capcom has clearly showed it wants with World, and indeed has made World so successful, would absolutely hate a proper G Rank. I don't see them jeopardizing their newfound cash cow like that.

I had one where we were fighting a rathalos, and it had me cornered and stunned, until the nippon dude flashbanged it, causing it to charge into the rocks behind me, causing a waterfall to be created and throw us down a cliffface. I had a feeling there'd be one of those beetles you can use your hookgun on there, as it was too fucking convenient, and started aiming and spamming O. I was right and hooked and swung forward at max speed, watching the rathalos slam to the floor. I then vaulted off and hit him full tilt with my hammer. Was pretty cool.

So long as you have ONE bro to play with, multiplayer in MH4U becomes a blast.
Me and my buddy used to do this thing we called the "wombo combo" where he used para-DS and paralize the boss, and by the time it would snap out of it I'd stun it with my hammer, just for it to get paralized by my buddy's next combo.
It was usually enough to get any non-final boss limping since I was using maximized DPS and expecially with a team of randoms everyone had some 30 seconds of free attacks to lay in.

Jho is one of the few occasions where it can get harder depending on the monster.

Yes exactly. I see them break parts off of eachother and being used to solo I have a really good feel for how much HP does the boss still have left, and the random tussling they do on eachother never seems to contribute much if not for an opening for you to attack.
Maybe it's like someone pointed out that since hunters have 100 to 150 HP bosses actually do really small amounts of damage to eachother since their damage is meant for players and not for eachother.

Odogaron and Legiana are the only salvageable monsters.

Getting compliments from strangers that are otherwise silent is the best, man.
>I remember doing this brachidos once with a group of people, they had a cart already, and as I was making my way to the boss they were gangbanging it as it was tripped.
>Charging my hammer I see the beast rise and charge his horn ground-pound that explodes everything, and as everyone is too entranced in their combo to stop and roll, with a level one charge I aim roughly at the head and let go of the button closing my eyes, expecting me and some one else to cart and the mission to fail.
>I swear I heard the explosion, but the battle music never stopped, and as I opened my eyes I saw the brachidos actually stunned on the ground, as the three remaining members fucked him up and catch him.
>As the mission ends and I get a nice gem too, the gathering hub loads in just a few seconds and one of them simply types in chat "nice hammer :)"

XX works fine on standard canary but for 4U you need to get a build that uses addticks hack.

Why is Lunastra so shit to fight without mantles?

>Windpress from moves that Rathian and Rathalos would kill for.
>Flash me bitch. I dare you. *Nukes map with no survivors*
I hate Lunastra more than Yian Garuga due to that fucking moveset. Kushala is shit to hunt in this game too, so i look forward to Arch tempered Kushala being a complete and utter bastard of a fight to solo.
Also, fuck Extreme Behemoth.

Randoms flash Luna because randumbs.
I flash luna to get her out of flame mode.
Yep your retarded.
Also the fight feels like your supposed to use the mantles otherwise its a fucking shitshow of windpress and shit eating from Luna.
Having done a majority of my hunts without them and seeing everyone else using them. Earplugs and kush set 3 piece with SA.
Fuck off back to Overwatch faggot.

Can't
Citra doesn't emulate 3ds multiplayer yet. It only allows emulators to play multiplayer.

citra allows cross region play
b9aaf2 No.15365358
>>15365345
In general, or specifically for Monster Hunter? Because I know other 3DS games can do cross region multiplayer, but not Monster Hunter, presumably because the foreign versions cut out content like manga/anime crossover DLC.

Nice. I'll need to look into getting Citra to work at some point, as well as how to rip .3ds files from a cartridge.

Preventing this and the infamous cases of monsters standing past the transition line while lobbing fireballs, spinning, or doing their fatigued idle animations is one of the few actual improvements World brought.

Heads up, Japanese PSN is having a sale, so Monster Hunter 2nd G (Freedom Unite) and Portable 3rd are both half off, 750 yen and 1000 yen respectively instead of the normal 1500 and 2000. No idea if other PSNs are doing similar sales or not though.
