#Monster Hunter: Wilds

maybe maybe
my issue is that I like most arms
coils will be easier, most look terrible with the rest
lmao fair
It is kinda lame that I'm wearing higher level layered armour than armour 
but I don't want to let go fo earplugs
LMAO I did the same thing
Cant you gem earplugs in
you gotta get them to drop first
I keep gemming in speed eating
Is it the best choice no probably not but also i don't wanna stand around 10 seconds healing
yeah I've no way to get earplugs except with armour skills right now
only one to make me switch to a higher defense armour is monhun endgame ||Tempered Gore Magala||
getting 75% or just straight up one shot is rough
I figured eventually I will want to be on the top end but right now
I mean I have rarity 7 available and I'm wearing rarity 6 maxed
my armour skills are a mess
I have this right now (with bow and IG equipped)
I still need to make a set for bow 
I think the stuff I got frmo the 2 pieces of ||Nu Udra I am wearing|| is kinda whatever but it works, i didn't have much better on the previous bits
I ditched Earplugs on Bow because I'm running Evade Extender and the new perfect dodge is pretty good
that's why I'm running extender LMAO
I am terrible at perfect dodging so 
and Leaper
I do have evade extender exclusively on the talisman
and adrenaline rush for the buff after the perfect dodge
my talisman is divine blessing
I have the increased healing talisman
my glam (late game)
my set gives adrenaline rush
highly recommend doing this quest if you are HR21+
I'm surprised you didn't mix with some ||blango|| parts that have the same vibe
very nice either way
I crafted the hat 
I KNEW it
I actually like the chest a lot
the hat has a piece atop I don't love
this could be me... but I need the ||mistcloak||
it's really good but people voted for the ||odo|| one
yeah it's great too
(late high rank) this is my incomplete bow set, I still need some of the decos I want
oh nice nice, I'm using the ||nerscylla|| bow
currently set like this
but I need so many more decos lol
Oh today I finally managed to consistently do the IG vaulting properly
i am running this rn
that's the same longsword I'm using, though mine's lower level, just fought ||rey dau in the quests that you have to kill 3 monster near the villages|| so just unlocked rarity 7.
goddammn that attack
oh yeah Burst is one I want for my Bow
I'm running ||Rey Dau|| bow because I'm farming ||Rathalos|| for the higher tier of the ||Rathalos|| bow
Apparently it is! The bow of that set just hides it hah
without the waist from the armor set It is uh, an interesting view from behind let's just say 

very nice ๐
I need to change my loadouts to include demondrugs and armorskins (and dash juices for bow)
though I'm not sure how long their effects last
I still have to go and actually build a load out
I keep getting inventory full stuff mid mission and going in with like 2 potions
if it's the same as previous games iirc it'd be mega demondrug lasts the full mission, powder lasts 10min, seed 2min and pill 30s
okay yeah about the same as I remember
and they all stack except for might pill and might seed
I am so glad I got this burst set because I was using a really narrow one that only boosted damage against paralyzed targets
so it's pop a mega demodnrug at the beginning, then powder and seed when meeting the monster and a pill when it falls over/is on a trap
though I don't think I'm at the point where I need to start popping pills lmao
just the demondrug should be plenty
So like... this game is genuinely very fun (with the exception of some annoyances like archaic menus, bad multi-player, etc)
However...
This is not a visually impressive game in any way. If we are being generous, it looks like it could have been made 5+ years ago
That wouldn't even bother me, except for that the performance is SO incredibly ass to get these outdated graphics
Why is is so hard to run for seemingly no reason at all? Devs really should hold themselves to higher standards than this
I think it looks pretty good tbh
Performance obviously is kinda ass but j wouldn't say it is a bad looking game at all
The monster designs, character designs, weapons, and monsters all look quite good
But the textures and physics and lighting etc are all rather poor for a 2025 release, and that's what actually effects performance. There is no reason the game needs to run so poorly
The game looks like a 2025 AAA if you can somehow manage to make it run
So I fully disagree ๐
Yeah
What weapon is that? Lol
I like how the longsword looks
I don't see the appeal tbh
at least for longsword
I guess three 3 slots for 3 gems is pretty good but still
you can get pretty good numbers I think
idk whats the highest rarity you can get on them
I currently only have rarity 7 parts as highest
The ice sword I have is better than anything I can access at the time
yeah, was the same for me
Has like, 30% affinity, 300+ ice damage
but it's R6 and now I have R7 weaponry
answer to that ||for now it's 8, same as the highest tier on the trees||
gotcha
I think like, if you get perfect parts and perfect level ups it can definitely outperform most weapons but like
I got too lost in the farm and I'vev been capped for quite a while 
it's so much RNG and you can't influence the RNG on levelups in any way I'd rather just run my normal weapons
maybe I'll try to make a full crit one
I think the RNG is part of the appeal
who doesn't like gambling (you included lol!)
and also just that it gives you one more thing to grind out
which means more reason to keep playing
which is all that monhun is
that said I feel wilds progression is so much softer than previous entries
risse not counting, i didn't play it
I like it when like, in PoE at least it's fast, you spend three hours doing twenty maps, grab a bunch of orbs and spend the next five minutes right clicking on your item cycling links to try to get a 6l
I haven't been compelled to farm anything specifically and have had 0 issues with having outdated crappy equipment
or you can get some crazy effects
I'm not a big fan of incremental RNG for a +5% buff ๐
especially if farming it is slow
well you need to kill strong monsters for these parts so it's just giving you an excuse to farm those monsters
I already got what I wanted from them tho I don't want to keep farming them for something I don't want ๐
Just beat (final boss) ||tempered arkveld||
||somehow I found it both easier and more fun than the regular version? Or maybe I'm just better now||
||He didn't run away nearly as much||
I managed peak appearance finally
Queen
end game ... I have found a new ideal appearance ๐ I guess it's time to make a bunch of loadouts
ooo big pog!!!
Yo what's the chest piece?
||arkveld||
||it's all a mix of arkveld and g arkveld, with dragonking eyepatch||
||the chains are
||
I finished the main story and don't know what to do now
what's your HR?
In the like, 50s
oh yeah then pretty much ||just hunt tempered monsters until title update 1 in april brings some more monsters including mizutsune and I'm hoping some Elder Dragons||
I hope we get new elders
In general more new monsters
||more octo and crabs and spiders||
Does anyone know if this game is in a playable state on PC yet?
I mean
I'm playing it just fine
so your question is kind of ...?
What PC?
and what do you consider playable?
I've heard multiple claim that it has so many performance bugs that it was an outrage that it was even released
I can't see your cpu there it seems but yes I think you should be fine
Oh wait I can
i'm blind
I'm playing with lower specs than that
That said playing with all on highest quality is a bit of a lottery
I'm playing with most things on high and lowered some specific things like cloud quality or far away shadow quality
So... as far as I'm aware they're adressing the bugs but I'm not sure there's any optimization being addressed
the list of fixes are standard minor bugs you get on most launches nowadays, like "thing A wasn't functioning as intended when in a specific condition" but I don't see any related to performance.
btw @humble flower I just noticed this while reading the updates
so ey
My performance is already more stable than it was at launch
Incidentally, how good IS my rig?
Yeah I worry about saying "yeah you'll be fine!" and then it not being true 
Well they do give you 2 hours to refund the game on steam right?
I say try it and if the performance is too bad refund it
yeah I guess
Pretty solid rig ๐
I think this should run just about anything released nowadays on high without trouble
I certainly hope so. I spent nearly 4 grand on it
huh?
4 grand???
was it prebuilt?
OR maybe 3, I can;t remember.
You can get a much better PC than that for even 3 grand.
I had Canada Computers build it for me after purchasing all the components from them
That rig is probably worth like $2000 if you built it 1-2 years ago
It's still a bit expensive but it makes sense if it was built for you
A bit less now because of newer releases
(USD to be clear)
Canadian dollars $3k makes a lot more sense lol
I just checked, and it was closer to 4. But whatever, I could afford it
When was this built?
that's still around 2.7k USD
Which expensive but not 4k USD 
4k USD would be a scam
no matter when
January 2024
Yeah... you can get a 4090 build for less than 4k lol
yeah
Glad I got it back then rather than now. Who the hell knows how much it would cost now
Well, the same rig would be cheaper =P
anyhow I do believe you should be all good
Though I don't recommend the ultra high textures pack
everyone says it's trash
I also don't think the game needs it
Not necessarily. hashtag: elbows up At any rate, is the deluxe addition worth it?
the all high specs looks really good as is
no, not really
you get this in the deluxe pack
Which is... well
I am worried because that 4070 Ti is probably an 8 GB VRAM card
a couple of cosmetics for some things
And MH Wilds is notoriously hard for 8 GB VRAM cards
Probably will have to lower the textures. Thats the only thing I'm concerned about
And definitely don't get the ultra high textures pack it will likely crash your PC if you try to use it woth 8 GB Vram
Yep
My dedicated memory is 12gb
Yeah you should be ok
So is deluxe purely just cosmetic? Or is there some functional stuff as well?
I think only cosmetic
the layered armour is not actual armour just visual
but I'm not 100% sure on that
the rest is purely cosmetic
Even if it isn't cosmetic it will be quickly outdated amyways
That's what I figured
yeah not worth
but yeah it is only cosmetic
here's the english version of what the deluxe pack carries
you can get cosmetic dlc pacsk if you want
I'd say that's playable, personally
oh now that I finished the story these <expletive removed> add the hub >_>
oh you need to complete the story for it
boo
cowards, the lot of them
I think they mean the LR story
way better than mine
even then
boo the cowards
haha
actually I don't know AMD CPUs so I don't know if your CPU is better than mine
I have a i7 10700F, 16gb ram and a RTX 3060 and the game never gave me any trouble (other than once or twice hitching for a fraction of a second and some texture loading, both while in the base) on medium
well the update says that there's ||mizutsune|| but also ||that there will be a monster above tempered monster difficulty||
yeah, really hoping it's more than one
though it would be funny if they added just one ||elder dragon||
I don't think it'll be more than one on the next update
there's a spring and summer update planned
and I don't think we're gonna get that much on spring
only thing I even kinda want is a set of ||gore magala|| armour and even then I don't really want it lmao
it has good skills for me
I think mostly I want to have all the weapons I like and want at rarity 8
and that's where I'll stop
well
with the according loadouts for them
done that 
well I don't have r8 bows yet tbf
oh right practice bow until I can take a ||tempered arkveld or gore magala|| without quest failing would also be cool but eh
not something I particularly care to do either
Oh I did ||gore magala|| with my bow
I did with longsword but I'm trying to get good with the bow now
Okay, I'm seriously not liking the controller scheme for this game. Why in bloody hell is the dodge button 'A'?
You get used to it
Like, any game like this that doesn't include the option for a controller scheme at least superficially resembling that of the Souls games and other action games like Horizon gets an immediate Gibbs slap from me. I don't see any justifiable reason for not including that option
I understand the need for some familiarity but also the monhun combat isn't really like "standard" combat and never has been
that said I do believe the options for changing controls are kinda trash
I mean it's standard for the era and region of the game
well not even region
triangle attack, circle other attack and x dodge was standard PS2 controls
God of War is like that (though square is main attack and circle is grab)
Prince of Persia is like that
Shield button being on the opposite site as the usual souls layout felt awkward to me but that was just, first few tries
Yall don't even wanna know how bad the pc controls are sometimes...
why do you play everything on keyboard ๐ญ
I don't play everything on keyboard!
Bowgun is just better on mouse and keyboard despite the controls smh
Radial being better on keyboard is definitely a take lmao
Aiming bowgun is nice, and scrolling through ammo types is way easier
mhm
other things are nicer on controller though
I was terrible with IG vaulting but it's much easier on controller for me
most meless are perfectly fine on both
I can't imagine playing on keyboard
scrolling through your active items sucks on controller
i never use mantles because they are so out of the way 
well switching with f1-f9 is much easier than having to hold something to then use the dpad to then hold rb to then use the joystick
while keyboard is f1 > 2
done
lb + rt auto uses the mantles
oh really?????
yeah, it's c on kb
roll credits
Idk how to swap the mantle that gets used with that command though
I haven't looked into it 
I was using kb and i swapped to controller because some stuff just doesnt work well (as in, some inputs it isn't recognizing)
and I was like "where's my mantle key!?"
Baddie with her baddie friend. (I have played like 5 hours lmao.)
Okay I have a hot take
Playing Wilds is making me really in the mood to play World
I'm trying to work out what Wilds adds to make it a better game than World
Like, I can point at having a fun dog and the wirebug In Rise
Seikret is just dog again and there's no wirebug
All the stuff Wilds does is to streamline stuff but I didn't mind actually hunting the monster in my monster hunter game
Oh with the big exception that they added a bunch of story to get in the way of the monster hunting
Wilds combat is so much more fluid than world, is my conclusion
It definitely feels fantastic to play, but then I've enjoyed most MonHun games so I may just have rose tinted glasses of previous games
skip button for cutscenes
This makes a world difference to me 
Actually, I think I do like the focus and wound features
That's something it adds that I do like
Its a huge part for me, I'm not skilled in combat things, even after hundreds of hours i still had trouble sometimes bringing full combos on to the monster
Namely because id be looking in front aiming in front but my character would hit behind her
Like ... often enough
This is completely removed in wilds
I've reached in wilds in 3h the skill level it took me 200h in world, needless to say that ofc the skill using the weapons remains
So its not from scratch every time
But from generations to world I had the same troubles
Wilds allows for the learning curve to be more skill than some rng issues.
||except if you're hit with arkveld chains which I'm pretty sure have a messed up hitbox||
I thought I'd hate the wounds and focus attack mechanic but it is pretty fun
Ye the wound system makes fights easier but not easy if that makes sense
I struggle with counters tho
Anything's that's not the combat itself is worse imo though, but it does make up for it for me.
I have felt a need to go back to iceborn
I disagree, the monsters are way cooler in my opinion, only thing I wish was different was the tracking
The monsters are the same ๐ค
But I didn't mean design
I should imclude that i really like the weapon and armour designs of wilds
What do you mean?
Most monsters are in previous games
Really? I know ||conga, less cool spider, rath and ode are from previous games but both tentacles, cool spider, big dog, railgun, chicken, frog, drill and fat water dude are new no?||
||I'm not sure who is who with that naming||
Does Wilds have the same control scheme as World did? I could have sworn I did remember World having a more traditional Souls-like control scheme.
||xu wu, black flame, lala barina, doshaguma, rey dau, quematrice, chatacabra, balarath? forgot the name of that one, uth duna, I think||
||with less cool spider being nerscylla and ode being odogaron||
it's like 50/50
Yeah
Either way yeah I like the monsters and weapons and armour designs
I should have specified
I want them to port 4U to the PC ๐ญ
btw current starting screen (late game stuff)
thats certainly a look
||xu wu|| looks fantastic
my girlie
cute
I just got this game
what's the helmet?
butterfly something?
lol
oh yeah just butterfly
Guys I got carted by a fart 
You got farted
This is a very cool outfit ๐
But I can't help but wonder if most ladies of the night usually are baring more skin than that to attract clients ๐
See, I want the Arkveld armor so bad, but like, man.
Is anybody in here crown hunting??? I have plenty of investigations to trade!
oh i'm so far behind i don't even know what that means ๐ฉ
Each monster has an XS and XL variant! They're pretty rare and used to be a huge pain in the butt to collect. But in wilds your binoculars will tell you if a monster is a gold crown or not
oh cool!
And if you find one in the wild you can save it as an investigation and the size gets locked in. In previous games you couldn't do this either
So you can share the investigation up to 3 times each
I will let you know if I see any! Though I'm not interested in trading but I can share
So far ive only seen one gold though
So not very successful
Havent seen any tiny
Yeah the smalls are usually rarer. And they give you a scripted Doshugama large
Yeah I've seen that one ofc
Ive only seen one gold besides the scripted, ||A xu wu|| but i did the 3 investigations already
Ill keep an eye out next time
I don't really use them at all either, used them once to get the achievement xD
but also i don't really go on surveys I just do investigations from camp
fair lmao
I saved a couple of investigations for ||tempered|| monsters to farm some mats
I thought about crown hunting or sharing but eh
I don't really feel like it
Yeah but you can save them from the map overview from camp
So I have no clue about crowns
lmao yeah I did it from the map
I have like 20 saved
Specialy with high rarity jewels or gems
Which is coming in handy since I need like 30 ||hunter symbols|| of each
oh right I gotta farm some of those to finish my weapons x_x
especially ||IIs and Is but also a few IIIs||
I need mostly || Is ||
wilds endgame ||interestingly the easiest ones to get for me are III because the Hirabami and Ajarakan optional quest gives them||
Yeah
This one is giving me most trouble, not that I've gone on a grind yet or anything
yeaah
Wilds endgame ||iirc Rey Dau and Uth Duna also give IIIs and the Raths give IIs so they are pretty easy, I is the more annoying one lmao||
Yup
I save em as soon as I see them
It's star based afaik? 5 6 7 (i guess 8 will give same as 7)
I have no idea tbh
I haven't killed an 8 so idk
I have one saved
... i felt all fancy for using stars then i got
from failed spoiling
|| 5โ-> I, 6โ -> II and 7โ - > III|| is what i had said
ooo nice nice
Well, I mostly say it as a tasteless joke, but I want my character to lookโฆ how to say this without triggering the filterโฆ c*nty?????
I want my character to look skimpy ๐
And she does, might switch for the chainmail Mia is using
REAL.
I want the arkveld armor but Iโm not in endgame yet so Iโm not going to FARM IT yet
I was considering that too
I really like the legs here ๐
and like i can't have a mistcloak if I swap around the chest...
and ||the golden bones look too cool||
Nod
... I suppose this is an option too?
mega gay vibes, fun
With the chest mia is using
I like that one 
I've got a few fun layered armor loadouts rn, but this is the wildest one one
That's pink
sure is
the helmet looks kinda like antenae which fits the vibe very well
strongly reminds me of aigis from p3, including the stumpy legs lmao
I was undecided between making my character look like a stereotype I like or like someone really cool
so I went with both ๐
simply do both, thats why you can register layered armors ๐
late game armour ๐
really tempted to switch shirt and legs for the ||blangonga|| ones tho
maybe for the title update 1
this one's interesting
Stormlight all ||shallan core||
hmm cooler though
veilcore
this looks like she's the leader of a gang lmao
and of course the one with too much skin
hell yeah
very nice
its just such a fabulous hat
The lili barina armor is just so based.
I finally got to high rank areas so i can get style without getting two tapped
That lili barina coil is so impossible to style if you donโt properly handle it
It, for some damn reason, comes up to like right underneath the chest.
Instead of being a, yโknow, SKIRT.
Seriously... what's the palico gear lol
Uth Duna palico gear.
Thanks!
its a very high waisted skirt lol
Wait you can adjust it to be lower?
No wonder it looks so much better on your character than mine
No, you can just make it fit better by styling it.
no you just have to match it with something that it works with
The Lili Barina tops fit it pretty good.
yeah basically, it only works with itself lol
Although I donโt like the female-looking top, because the cape is just so GOOD.
Itโs less dramatic than theโฆ yโknow, Rathalos armor lmao
I really like using the gold crown headpiece. I spent so long crafting my characters face, I wanna show it off lol
See, I used the Rey-Da crown with the rathalos armor to balance it out
there's also a head piece that is literally just an earring lol
All the crowns are good
Tbh, the Nerscylla armor is also a gundamโฆ
So, maybe Rathalos ainโt that bad.
Still, Arkveld armor?? Gorgeous.
i think its interesting that the odogaron mask gives you black hair in a braid
Iโm currently so mad that Iโm stuck at a point where Wyveria is CLOSED.
And the Conga armor just gives you a literal mane of hair
I really dislike this. I didn't put the hair I wanted to then be given hair in the helmets
I really like the mask but the hair is just a big no for me
I really like the hair
but I wish you could dye the black part
it does remind me of a Warframe character
it was the first thing I thought of lmao
I think my favourite palico armour is the ||nu udra|| set
it's really cute ๐ญ
that's the one I'm using
I really like it with this weapon too, it makes it look kinda silly
Modded hair go brr.
ooh, nice
When do I unlock the ability to change armour colour?
High rank, when you get layered armor
Danke
I seriously cannot for the life of me understand the Charge Blade mechanics in this game. Sometimes a button does one thing, other times it does something totally different
hm? I've not had issues
Do you mean like, mid combo?
CB is a little weird because trigger is guard in sword mode and morph in axe mode but like, thats it
Like, sometimes RT turns it into a whirlygigg, other times in seemingly the exact same situation it just causes it to be sheathed
And I can't figure out how to properly trigger the ultimate whirling ground explosion combo
so, the saw mechanic (the axe rolling) happens when your axe is charged
and you hit, and then hold
but LT is focus no?
your shield has to be charged to do the super amped element discharge
yeah, you need your shield charged and at least 3 phials I thikn
Isn't right trigger block
sword charged: sword does phial damage. Shield charged: you block better and get access to the big attack. Axe charged: hold the button to do extra hits on all your axe swings and phial attacks are cheaper
That causes it to drain one phial then I hold Y+B, not all of them at once
(he edited to RT after)
press y+b for amped element discharge, hold for super when shield is charged
I don't use the super much tbh because it uses all your phials and I'd rather just do the full elemental combo with spinning axe mode
You can't do the discharge unless it's charged, I know that much
then I'm not sure what your problem is
Wait, how do you charge the shield?
guard and hold heavy attack
same way you charge phials, but you hold instead
charge phials and keep holding, charge shield. charge phials and then hold light attack after, charge sword (but only if shield is charged first)
I have been playing MH rise since I'm kinda done with the content in wilds and damn I miss having two weapons ๐
your shield icon on the top left needs to be shining for it to be charged. It uses all phials you have (or any ppower you've not yet put to the phials)
your sword will also shine when charged
and axe icon lights up for spinning axe mode, ye
Your axe gets charged by doing a focus strike attack I believe (this is necessary to do the savage axe attack, which is the one that makes it spin like a saw)
there are two ways actually
what's the other?
perfect guard and then do morph attack
lol
i get it pretty often
the dream is to morph to shield, hit the guard point, and then go straight back to axe after the attack ends
its a good idea to run rapid morph for that
guarding also charges phials!
btw all of this is in the ingame guide
it doesn't go full indepth but I'd recommend checking it in the training area
I'm trying to learn swaxe now that I've got chargeblade mostly down
its got some satisfying counters
axe mode has a good offset attack, and sword mode has a counter
you also have this for the combo
Tho afaik you can skip the follow up? Or was that in world?
I have trouble remembering I'm doing it by memory now
I have a really good swaxe but I've never played it, it will be next to learn
you can skip the followup i think yeah
I tried out swaxe in rise after wilds and its so bad comparitively 
my point is that if you just do y+b and nothing else normally it won't actually do the entire discharge, which might be Fanghur's problem?
I've never ever tried it lol
I'm currently getting warmed up to the sns again
like half the moveset is new to wilds I think
or it might have been in worlds and then not put into rise, dunno
offsets are new for sure and it would be much worse without its offset
I am pretty sure I will not be able to hit anything if i go back to world after wilds ๐ญ
I know, the wounds and spinny finisher on IG are so big a part of the playstyle, I can't imagine going back
Also just the UI update of your reticle showing what extract you get from the part you're pointing at is huge
I have learnt IG on wilds entirely
but yeah as far as chargeblade goes I feel like there's two ways to play it, either you're spending most of your time in sword mode charging up and then using super discharges, or you're spending most of your time in axe mode dealing consistent damage with spinning axe, and then switching to sword to block attacks
Also I fought a new monster last night ||the uwu octopus|| and I am very in love with its armor and farmed it four times immediately to get the drip
and my preference is spinning axe style, using rapid morph to guard with the morph attack and maintain my spinning axe mode
YES, this is the way, the armour is 
you're going to need to be more specific
naaah only one is ||uwu||
I don't think I like the new armor/weapon skill split
||xu wu = uwu||
ah i see
||xoxox uwu||
armor skills feel underpowered and I wish I had more weapon skills
It is utterly dumb that I have to speak to someone and click 5 times to be redirected to a qr to then redirected to a website to see the freaking rewards of the weekly quests
why
The UI is real bad
ugh
the UI do be real bad
also I think bowguns have been simplified too much
I really love trying to use loadouts
ah, i did notice this
there's some good in how they've simplified bowguns, but its gone too far
How do you assign them? How do you edit one? How do you quickly remove junk from your inventory and restock supplies? Don't worry, it's extremely unclear
I was pretty excited to use bowguns with the new focus system but then... there isn't much to do with them which is a bit boring.
so I basically mostly only use the bow for ranged
just because i have more fun with it
everyone seems to like bow in this game
I was trying to use them for a while, but honestly I'm just doing items manually now because it's honestly faster
what is stopping you from adding one line here
to tell me the reward
ONE LINE
nope, it's 3 clicks away
as someone who's basically a bowgun main for the last 4 games:
Universal ammo pouch is great. I am 100% happy with inventory management being removed from bowguns entirely. (other than for crafting I suppose)
spread normal and pierce being unlimited, also great. making the level of them part of the bowgun instead of having to haul multiple levels of ammo around i also like.
however
Yeah all of that is great
I don't like recoil being fixed for all bowguns.
having to manage different recoils for different ammo types for different guns, and having armor skills to compensate, was cool!
now its just
oh spread has massive recoil, never use it ever because there's nothing you can do about it
WELL
If you have spread in rapid fire you can move while shooting and it's kinda fun
I won't say it's good
but that's a choice 
yeah but its still bad
yeah, it's just interesting haha
and thats only for lbg, hbg is just "guess I'll die"
yeah... hbg is pretty boring for me
you do a lot of damage but there isn't much combo to do just hope you got the timing right to not get hit
I also don't like the change to wyvernpiercer on HBG, I liked it being one massive shot you have to commit to
now it does barely any damage, you still have to commit quite a bit to use it, and you just kinda spam it until its gone and are disapointed in the end lol
If you want a big explosion do gunlance
gunlance is very fun, idk how it was before though
I mostly played cb with bits of other things here and there in previous games
I feel like the oversimplification of recoil is a consequence of the armor/weapon skill split
because nobody would ever want to slot recoil down when they only have 3 gems to put into weapon skills ever
idk its made building armor less complicated but also less interesting
I don't really have any problem with this
I know it's unlikely but I want a monhun collection ๐
give me 4U on PC in a good port and I'm happy
I'd be happy with 3U, FU or Portable 3rd too but 4U is the goat
Okay, this is a bit of a petty criticism, but I seriously hate how in both World and Wild, the attack direction is keyed to the direction your character is facing rather than where the camera is aimed at. If I had a nickel for the number of times Iโve instinctively entered into an attack only to have the character attack in the complete opposite direction to the monster, Iโd probably be able to buy a nice steak dinner, or at least a double double.
Isn't that literally what focus mode is for
(you can set focus mode to be a toggle in the settings if you just want it on all the time)
No, that just highlights where the monsters are injured/vulnerable. If your character is facing away from where the camera is pointing, and you hit attack, you'll attack away from them, it doesn't force your character to attack where the camera is pointing. Like I said, it's a petty criticism, but still annoying considering that a lot of the attacks last a few seconds.
Does it not? I'm 99% sure that your character attacks where the big reticule is aiming
It highlights the monsters injured spots and also let's you do precision attacks on those spots
It occurs to me that this may be weapon dependant and may just be the case for Insect Glaive?
Yeah it does this for the most part
If you are already locked into an animation it might have you finish it before changing where you aim but
You can very easily change where your general swings are at with focus mode
yeah focus mode is exactly for that lmao
Focus mode forces you to look at the monster unless you're somehow exactly backwards, and ocassionally doesnt with ranged weapons if you're at a really bad angle
Besides that you're asking to not have to aim in a combat game... (which barely requires you to aim anyway)
Focus mode is literally just so good, I probably should put it on toggle so I can have it on all the time
Its the first thing I did
Honestly, I don't know why it is even something you can turn off. There is literally zero reason anyone would ever want to fight without it
I can personally attest that I'd hate it if I could only attack on the direction the camera is facing
In fact, I can't think of a single action game that functions like that
Just off the top of my head, what if the enemy moves faster than the camera rotate speed? You'd never be able to hit them
There are plenty of reasons to not be constantly permalocked? What kinda game forces you to lock onto an enemy?
Imagine a game in which you cannot change targets or simply look at something else? This makes no sense
(In fact there have been some games that do this and get immediately shot down until they give options to NOT do that)
The only reason I use focus mode in monhun is because there's certain moves that can only be done with it (for IG, the combo that gets you all three colours). I wish I could do the move without using focus mode but I can't
I use focus mode because I suck
which is why I've changed it to be a toggle instead of a hold xD
but that both options are there is great!
I keep Focus mode on hold
I use it a lot with sns
I have no idea why you guys keep saying that it forces you to be permalocked. It isn't true. I literally just fought a monster with it on and I was still having to lock on using the thumb button
They mean that it would suck if you were permalocked in focus mode as you suggested
I don't see why. The only difference it makes is that injuries become highlighted
Fanghur, did you miss the discussion of all the other things focus mode does?
- highlights wounds
- directs attacks towards where camera's facing
- unlocks focus strike moves
- some weapons (like IG) have additional functionality in focus mode
Like for insect glaive, your kinsect behaves differently in focus mode than when you're out of it
Focus mode causes your character to lock onto where the camera is facing, and do attacks in that direction. It doesn't lock the camera onto the monster and force you to always face the monster. Notice how as you're moving the camera, your character is constantly turning to face forward with you? That's focus mode.
Not being in focus mode means you can look around with the camera without dragging your character to face that way too (for instance if you're looking for interactables around the arena)
Okay, then consider my earlier criticism amended accordingly: Why the hell wouldn't they have at least made it so that the 'highlight injuries' function was always on? That's what I was referring to in my original comment.
Probably because you can't meaningfully interact with injuries unless you're using the focus strike?
Imagine players getting frustrated because they can see the injuries but can't do anything to them (because they've forgotten focus mode exists and aren't triggering it)
I mean it's just another mechanic, you might not like the mechanic but there's no purpose to highlighting wounds outside of focus.
You can in fact see the wounds and break them without focus but you can't do the special attacks on them.
If you don't like the mechanic that's fine but there's not a whole lot of a point of highlighting them outside of focus.
I said that twice... ignore the second one 
Yeah like, they're visible on the monster even when they're not highlighted. You can see a dull red and usually some visible damage at the spot where the injuries are, it's just that they glow brightly when you're focused
yeah, in fact you can see the spot where you are making a wound as you're making it
And for some reason my focus mode seem to keep spontaneously turning off even though I have it set to toggle
Which is a pain in the ass
you can still break them normally
just takes a bit longer than a single attack and you don't get the very strong break attack
That makes sense, I suppose on IG I'd consider breaking a wound with something other than the focus strike to be a waste because you're not getting the extracts
almost every weapon gains something from breaking the wounds with focus strikes
I've only broken them without by mistake 
With some weapons it isnt that worth it but then with most you got some with amazing effects/damage whatever
I think they all deal extra damage + iframes
So I'm not sure with which is it not worth
Gunlance focus strike is kinda hard to use because you gotta aim at the wound for the whole duration of it
that might be the only one actually 
hmm... git gud?
sword and shield is fantastic, bow is okay, hammer is fun
I use the bow one for the iframes sometimes
The bug yeet is unsurpassed ๐ค
I love to yeet my bug into the nasty gore of an injury. It's enrichment for him
cb lets you charge your axe to legit go brrrrrrrrr
longsword lets you skip an entire charge
https://youtu.be/dsoS5gd3gV4 dont mind the video title but, here is what i mean by having to aim it lol

To God be all the glory.
I have mastered the gunlance in wilds
LS one giving you a full charge per wound break is crazy
barely need to grab red charge the hard way now
His little rock will protect him
Everyone loves the pickle
It's the funniest guy
I love it when he comes in and deals more damage to the monster in 10 seconds than me and my friend in 40 minutes
we also eat the monster afterwards
just gotta down a dash juice and it's smooth sailing
Rolled credits! :3
Midriff moment? Midriff moment.
nice
any gunlance gamers?
Hii
Gunlance is fun :)

Officia...
okay so
first off:
meh.
Title Update 1 stuff ||mizu is cool I guess but the hub comes too late and bro why on earth are you putting it after the story? the whole point of the hub is that you can just do the hub and not the story, putting it behind the story is really dumb||
||also where the hell are the elder dragons||
||this is not a lot of content||
but also
Title Update 1 stuff ||Title Update 2 teaser|| ||ashdjasjlkdjaklsajfhLFHALKGSHJAKSLFLKJ YO THEY DID IT MY BOY IS FINALLY FREE I'M SO HAPPY||
this is literally exactly how they did it in world.
It was in an update right after release too.
I have many things to say about World
the very few of them that are good are mostly related to mods
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
they're doing exactly what everyone thought they would do, splitting the series into classic-like and world-like
||Zoh Shia Zoh Shia Zoh Shia!||
if you're problem is that MH World 2 is like world... dunno how to help you there
Title Update 1 trailer big spoilers ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐
||YO THE ZO SHIA ARMOUR||
I have to say this is the amount of content they said they were going to do for the update
BUT ALSO
ARMOUR FROM THE UPCOMING UPDATE
aaaaaah
It is extremely funny to me that you tagged this as big spoilers and then I opened it (haven't watched the trailer yet) to see absolutely no spoilers whatsoever 
Just somebody excited about a thing that they did not identify
As a first time monster hunter player, I have no idea whatโs going on but Iโm happy you guys are all happy ๐๐๐
see it's also my first game
i just treat it like a fashion game
the monsters are simply there to get me to have cool outfits
That is the correct goal of the game
The mods for armors are... usually hit or miss though.
So much nsfw stuff for modding in this game
although the artian editor is my favourite thing in the universe
I refuse to grind 17 longswords to get my dimensius right
o I wonder if the mods I want are out yet ๐
I've been scrolling mods a lot, so I can probably tell you if there's a specific mod out?
I don't know if I should say them out loud lmao
o pog it's up to Guild Knight
still a lot to go tho
Is it bonkhammer time? 
lmao
also the other one is only for ||anjanath|| yet ๐
also damn
there are a lot of cheat mods huh
Oh, yeah.
Honestly, the only mod that I really used extensively that is 'cheating' is Artian editor.
Because, well, I'm not playing a gacha game with my weapon.
I mean the point is that you don't get a perfect weapon until you have done it a zillion times
back in my day you didn't even craft the weapons, you had to get the .5% drop from a G Rank elder dragon for the last tier ๐
(Title Update 2 stuff)
I miss the cursed tables from 3U
basically in 3U there was the pendants that we have now but they were called charms
and like, when you created a save you were slotted into one of the charm tables, the only way to change was to start a new game from the beginning
and 5 of those charm tables were utter garbage that ensured you would never get good charms
it was funny ๐
Apparently high fps lower your damage with certain weapons
Is there even the slightest possibility at all that anyone could ever complete the campaign of a monster hunter game without taking any damage like some people do with Fromsoft games?
It sounds flat-out impossible to me.
I don't see why it would be impossible
With perfect guards and stuff you definitely could imo
absolutely
don't even need skills tbh
with bowgun or bow it's pretty trivial to no hit some monsters
with practice you could no hit the whole game
Monster Hunter: Freedom Unite
Me, trying to figure out how "wilds" translates to "fahrenheit" to the point that someone would make a "freedom units" joke about it
The real freedom units are chilling with your buds with your psp's hunting monsters together
TRUTH
I bring on this fine day, another outfit:

Monster Hunter: Wilds
I'd mentioned it elsewhere and someone might have mentioned it here, but I will pose the idea; Imagine hunting a Chasmfiend.
hmmm so pretty, I guess i need new dual daggers
Okay, does anybody know whether there's any way to predict when your cat companion will do the "Leave it to me, heals inbound!" thing? If I had a nickel for the number of times I've activated the use of a Mega Potion only for them to then immediately trigger the health bug thing, thereby rendering it a complete wasted potion, I'd probably be able to buy a pack of gum. If there's some indication of when that's about to occur, I've yet to figure out what it is.
There isn't. The cat AI is RNG, however it does have a higher chance of healing when you're hurt. If you're not in immediate death situation you can give it like 5 seconds to see if it does heal you I guess?
Yeah, the indicator is when your palico yells out that it's coming, there's nothing besides that
yeah, I don't even know what's the actual %, but I do know it does have a higher chance to give support to stuff you need, healings when you're hurt, cleansers when you got status on, etc.
if you start using a potion and roll I think it might cancel the potion without consuming it but the timing is tricky.
yeah you can cancel the potion by sprinting or rolling or pulling out your weapon
(basically any that's not being still or walking)
its very simple, the cat will heal you when you need to use a potion, slower than you can use a potion ๐
HELL YEAH
monster hunter is fundementally about dunking on a monster that you've fought 10234643 times so you know literally everything it will ever do
title update 2 ||MY BOY LAGI IS BACK AFTER SO LONG ๐ญ ||
I'd been talking with some MH friends and trying to recreate this armor. The problem is this was made in a hole in the ground with a box of scraps, all the armor sets in MH look too nice.
closest is maybe the kut ku chestpiece, but that is still a stretch.
Oh perhaps some parts of the ajarakan would help?
Jin also has some ribbed bits though the chest pieces would not work
They suggested death stench but that just isn't right. Nor the bone sets.
might want to tag that as spoilers
if the mods didn't suggest that when it was in memes, I won't here. Besides, its from the first book.
the spoiler rules are different here than in cosmemes
I cannot edit it to add any sort of spoiler tag.
Man, I feel monhun has a looot to work on that is not "fight against cheaters"
So it seems according to steam news a few days ago
o nice
I hope they don't crack down on cosmetic mods use
but cheat engine and the 'get whatever you want' ones can go as far as I'm concerned
since it doesn't affect me how others play I don't really care ๐ค
If you want to use a mod that instantly gives you everything instead of farming go for it (idk why you paid 70 bucks to not play the game but that's on you
)
The problem is people with instant monster kill mods joining games and just ruining the gameplay.
