Redirection is a fun skill

#

Reject Strongarm
Embrace adept 2.0

heady goblet
#

It's just Valor LS, but cooler

icy stump
#

Redirection, strongarm, or yes?

heady goblet
#

Yes

icy stump
#

Ayo

#

I think redirection works better with Surge slash, cause all 3 surge slash finishers have a longer animation than just parry->charge attack on normal charge combo

#

And they're comparable to charge->parry->TCS in terms of animation length

#

Also ngl
I like sacred sheath more than special sheathe cause it's basically just valor 2.0

#

Like literally, if you do the sacred sheatg release parry->X->R->R It basically does the Valor LS parry follow up combo

icy stump
#

YO NOVEMBER 16S THE DAY

THE DAY WHERE WE GET TU3 INFO

#

A Lil under a week!

#

Ayo!

#

Let's go!!!

icy stump
#

I required more things to keel

#

Chaotic gore magala would be funny I think

#

Also, they got the VA for Fiorayne to host it

warped hawk
#

I see Monster Hunter World / Rise's back on sale

#

šŸ¤”

heady goblet
#

You should Kill Animal

#

Get Rise/Sunbreak though, that game's a blast

warped hawk
#

I think I might get Rise

#

I had it back in the time but then refunded it SOLKEKW

heady goblet
#

You should definitely play Sunbreak

solemn orbit
#

wondering I I should try to see if RIse would run better on my pc than on my switch

#

haven't finished sunbreak on switch either

heady goblet
#

I wish there was more armor pieces like this in MH

icy stump
#

Espicynas is like that kinda

icy stump
#

Just had a anime moment

heady goblet
icy stump
#

I mean it don't got the poofy bottom bits

#

But they're both coat looking things

heady goblet
#

The Espinas sets don't even cover the front half of the waist

icy stump
#

Fair

icy stump
#

Yooooo

I can get back to valor HBG

#

I didn't wanna use gunner weapons cause I had my control setup to type 2 (old school R aim, A shoot) and I dint wanna reset that everytime so I just ignored the guns, till I remembered

Waggle aim exists

#

Now I just gotta figure out how to deal with that damn overheat gauge

#

Then I'll be cooking

solemn orbit
#

thinking about getting rise+sunbreak on pc to play it there instead of switch but

#

how's the region locked really ?

#

I seem to find conficting stuff

solemn orbit
#

alright found my answers

#

highly likely that I'll be playing it on steam instead of finishing it on switch

warped hawk
#

I've got the game (again)

#

MH Rise, for now without expansion

solemn orbit
solemn orbit
#

@warped hawk sell those

#

(and let's keep mh stuff in here instead of spam as well I geuss)

#

and if,by any chance,you feel like the stupid lines the hunter says in every hunter as much of a pain as I do,you can disable it in settings

#

if it doesn't bother you now after a few hours it will

#

ahc rap they got sent to the normal chest

#

@warped hawk don't use the two sets "obi black" and "guild cross"

#

they're higher than what you can make so there's no point,you wouldn't be learning the game

#

you can use them as skin though

#

the freakin look great

#

another thing the game doesn't tell you,sbout the silkbugs

#

using the "free aim" version of the silkbug jumps takes longer for it to be usable again

#

when you don't need to use that one rpecisely,use the other 2 versions

#

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

#

AND NO DEFENSEUR GEAT EITHER.

#

weapons included

#

MayShrug it's quickly shite anyway

icy stump
#

Also fun fact

The horizontal ground one takes into account the angle of slope your on
So you can use it to yeet yourself longer distance if you do it up off a ramp

solemn orbit
#

or howeve it's called in other langages

solemn orbit
#

headfirst into a tree cause it's george

#

and don't forget to try every weapons

#

and pick up EVERY LITTLE ITEMS ON YOUR WAY

#

it WILL save you from needing stuff a lot of the time

#

no potions left in your inventory ? craft from grass,you pick them up everywhere anyway

#

plus in Rise and world you can jsut...go and pick up items from your chest in the tent at the base.you can put stuff in,too,so go on and be a greedy gremlin grabbing everything

#

YES INCLUDING POOP.

#

POOP WILL SAVE YOUR ASS.

solemn orbit
#

@warped hawk and in case you didn't notice,you can use items while riding the doggy,including sharpenning your weapon

warped hawk
#

So where do I go?

solemn orbit
#

everywhere

#

talk to them when tehre's a yellow thingy

#

then go back to the lady that isn't in the gathering hub for quests

#

village quests are basically a long tutorial to ease you into the game

#

do her hunts,and keep talking to people as you see thsoe yellow,blue,or red bubbles

#

those bubles appear when an npc want to talk to you

#

he'll be somewhere in there,look for it you'll see big speech bubles when you're close to them

#

and yes they could've made it simpler to locate them but it's a huntin ggame not a questing game anyway

warped hawk
#

So for the start I just talk to her on quests?

solemn orbit
#

you talk to her and do the hunts she gives

#

yes

#

then it will be the other girl's hunts

#

that'sbasicaally the game,really.

#

you do the hunts

#

you gather items to prepare for the hunts...in the hunts (but there's expedition if you need to gather stuff only)

#

make armor and weapons for the hunts from the hunts

#

and that's the game loop

#

simple,pleasant;much unga,very fun

#

if you can't find a precies ressource/loot from a monster,check...uuuh what was the name again...gimme a second

#

crap I forgot the site with the best list for monster hunter

#

ok found it

#

kiranico

#

it's great

icy stump
#

Yeah Albert if ya get any questions feel free to ask

#

On like weapon tech/monster Mus if ya want/need

solemn orbit
solemn orbit
#

oh,if you want to try items to see what they do before a hunt

#

you can use them in the training room

#

any items you used there aren't taken off your inventory

#

so go ahead and try stuff in there

icy stump
#

Same with weapons

#

You can test stuff there too

icy stump
#

TiL you can parry a espicynas nuke with redirection

#

I'm always going for that from now on

warped hawk
#

I will play once I get some more time

solemn orbit
#

play whenever you want

#

it's a long game anyway,have fun and take your time

icy stump
#

Apparently MHR is on sale on steam rn

#

Am I really going to buy it again?

heady goblet
#

Do you want to hunt together?

icy stump
#

I mean yeah but re grinding all the way through LR/HR seems kinda boring

solemn orbit
heady goblet
heady goblet
#

Pog

solemn orbit
#

feels weird to play ùmonster hunter with my xbox controller again

warped hawk
#

Axalu, I've got Rise too yesterday šŸ˜†
I mean again, as the first time a few months ago I refunded it

solemn orbit
#

after so much switch controller

solemn orbit
#

@warped hawk

icy stump
#

So after going back to MH4U for a bit, all I can say is....

dark ivy
#

The middle square is hilarious

solemn orbit
#

oh right,news tomorrow

icy stump
#

OH GOD I FORGOT STYGIAN

#

CAPCOM PLEEEEEEAAAASE

#

I need my hellhound

#

He's best boi

solemn orbit
#

also

#

where's my electric pony

#

kirin doko

icy stump
#

It's a damn shame how terrible his set was in IB

solemn orbit
#

and if namielle could come back

#

that'd be great

icy stump
#

Chaotic gore tho?

#

Ballin

dark ivy
#

I love Namielle to death

icy stump
#

Those weapons are the fuckin coolest

dark ivy
#

But I’ll be the first to say I think it should stick to World

solemn orbit
#

the freakin armor

#

it's so cute

dark ivy
#

Also skill-wise Nami armor sucks

solemn orbit
#

it's like a perfect cross over with splatoon while also keeping its own identity

#

I love it

icy stump
#

Elemental accelerate would basically just become elemental burst

solemn orbit
icy stump
#

Combine it with elemental exploit?

solemn orbit
icy stump
#

OH BOI

dark ivy
#

The problem is, if you were to include that, you can’t have it be outclassed by something else

icy stump
#

Oh, another thing

#

GIB ADRENALINE RUSH GEMS

dark ivy
#

Elemental Acceleration was worthless with Safi’Jiiva armor existing

icy stump
#

I neeed it

dark ivy
#

And that’s on top of raw already being king in Worldborne

icy stump
dark ivy
#

Just as long as it’s viable

#

All I care about

#

And viable doesn’t mean ā€œmetaā€

#

Just don’t make it worthless

icy stump
#

Me, but with attack boost

#

Espicynas armor my beloved

heady goblet
icy stump
#

Ey, they gave espicynas weapons dual fire/poison for everything

#

So it's possible!

heady goblet
#

Looks like TU3 is gonna go hard

icy stump
#

The new risens look like redirection bait

#

Can't nuke me if I backflip it you stupid hellfire cat

solemn orbit
#

oh for fuck's sake

#

IU got baited

#

they showed all those cool event armor

#

only to the plushy weapons to be paid dlc of course

#

I had my hopes for half a second when I saw them

dark ivy
#

Am I the only one annoyed by the Anomaly Investigation level increase to 200?

#

It’s such an arbitrary grind

solemn orbit
#

dunno,I didn't play sunbreak enough to get there yet

#

and jsut restarted on pc as well

dark ivy
#

The grind is probably more tolerable with a dedicated Buddy Hunting party

solemn orbit
#

mostly solo hunting myself though

icy stump
#

That means lv 200 crab is possible

#

Rn I got a lv 96 crab

icy stump
#

That dumb sonnuva bitch dunno what he's in for

dark ivy
#

I love da crab

#

Everyone a boss until Shogun Cenataur rolls up

icy stump
#

Shogun is fun to bully

#

With LS

#

Just

Parry everything

solemn orbit
#

compiling shaders every update on the graphic driver,my greatest nemesis

#

that said,if anyone knows how to fix the weirdly slow saves in mhrise,taht'd be neat

icy stump
#

I'm trying my damnedest to relearn HBG, BUT DAMN

#

Crouching shot ain't no siege mode

#

Crouching shot can't obliterate shit like siege mode could

#

Or rather
Because of the cool down its hard to do

#

Not a big fan of needing to throw myself into the monsters firing range to actually proc counter charger to get a good recharge time but ah well

solemn orbit
#

I find lbg mucj better

#

I went back to it for my pc save

solemn orbit
warped hawk
#

How do I get those and how do I get up

solemn orbit
#

wait,no you're not

#

from the angle in there,look at the wall north west there's where you can climb

#

but I still believe you're looking at the wrong wall;gimme a second to go there and how you

#

launched that quest,screenshots incoming a bit

#

@warped hawk

warped hawk
solemn orbit
#

here's your solution ya goofball

warped hawk
#

Thanks

#

I can't say I like this quest

#

I know it's meant to teach how to wallclimb and wirebug

#

But meh

solemn orbit
#

yeah,if that can reassure you...fetchquests are begining quests mostly

warped hawk
#

though that's fun to an extent

solemn orbit
#

you might get some sidequests stuff to fetch stuff,but that's it

warped hawk
#

climbing I mean

#

not finding stuff

solemn orbit
#

you bet your ass I ignore as much of those quests as I can

#

at least there isn't as much eggs fetching as it used to

solemn orbit
icy stump
solemn orbit
#

lbg though

heady goblet
#

Bow though

icy stump
#

I (can) play pretty any weapon sans lbg

solemn orbit
#

I went back to lbg

icy stump
#

Even then
I can sorta play lbg

solemn orbit
#

in my switch playhtrough I played most of the lower ranks but got fully into HH after that

#

with some side db and bow

#

and HH/GS for master rank

heady goblet
solemn orbit
#

all in on lbg this time

#

it's so fun

#

the volvidon hunt was fun

#

everytime he tried to roll away the epxlosive thingy stuck to his back sent him flying

icy stump
#

I got a really funny volvidon clip I gotta post here

solemn orbit
#

ooooh magnamalo hunt in village quest already

#

woohoo

warped hawk
#

I like MH so far

solemn orbit
#

did you try every weapons ?

#

you got one of each in your chest

#

perfect to try them in the training area

#

(boat in the place where you get more dogs and cats)

warped hawk
#

How do you access Training Area?

solemn orbit
#

also,kill everything and skin it at least once

warped hawk
#

No, not yet
Just Dual Blades and Gunlance

solemn orbit
#

:D

solemn orbit
#

of course,there will still be a time where you hit a wall

#

(village quests are literrally easier,only low rank + monsters don't have as much HP as hub,it's the long tutorial basically)

warped hawk
#

crafted new Dual Blades

#

crafting system feels confusing on a first glance

#

like

#

I have skills on my armor

#

But what do they do

solemn orbit
#

rise has a MUCH more simpler system for skills than the older games

warped hawk
#

Is there a way to have that pop-up with what your switch skills are? I had it in demo

#

But not in the game

#

And I forgot what switch skills are on dual blades

warped hawk
#

And how do you get into that stamina draining mod

#

e

solemn orbit
#

try the different switch skills in the training area

#

also

#

checking the skills at the smith on sets/pieces of armor is right stick button

#

or CTRL on keyboard

#

you can also check it with the same button in the menu

#

equipment

#

and then same buttons.

solemn orbit
solemn orbit
#

man I forgot how much of a pain it is to cut a tail with just slicing ammo

icy stump
#

Ok, ngl
Tilt aim makes IG with kindest slash the most fun thing ever

#

Being able to flick aim where I'm going to yeet myself is a godsend

#

Especially against certain endgame bosses
(If ya know, ya know the two I'm talking about)

solemn orbit
#

the one thing that made aiming much better for me in monster hunter,and just aiming in general

#

are the analog on the elite series 2 xbox controlers

#

tension put to max

#

feels nice and heavy,finally I can aim without spray and pray

icy stump
#

Fuck that

Embrace the waggle aim tako

#

Embrace shenanigans

icy stump
#

Ok genuinely
How the fuck do SA players manage their sharpness?

#

I somehow managed to burn through a entire bar of valstrax sharpness 3 times over in a single hunt

icy stump
warped hawk
#

I've tried Hammer

#

I don't know what to feel on it

#

That LT + Y overhead flying attack is so great if it hits

#

But I don't get how the charge mechanic works, I don't feel like it adds a lot?

#

I'll try Long Blade now

warped hawk
#

Me using that parry on Long Blade

solemn orbit
#

but didn't feel like it on rise

#

also

#

that's exactly why I said you should try all weapons

#

like this you'll know wich one feels more natural to play for now

#

you can always jump to another later anyway

#

doesn't take much materials to make stuff in rise

#

EddieCatThumbsUp .

solemn orbit
#

oh,btw the dual blades has a switch skill to make counter

#

it got a bit nerfed so it's not a broken as before

#

but it's still freakin good

icy stump
#

Hammer is pretty simple
Hold R for normal charge
Lv 1 (press and release basically) is side slap
Lv2 (hold until one flash) is a big uppercut, good for hitting high heads, caution is advised for multiplayer tho, cause it can yeet people
Lv 3 (after 2 flashes) is either a big slam if standing still, or a spin if you release R while moving

The spin can be cancelled into a uppercut by hitting X, which gets better damage the later you do it in the spin, although not doing it leaves you vulnerable because of a over spin

solemn orbit
#

Unga giving you a detailed list of reason for the Unga name.

icy stump
#

If you hit A mid charge you switch to a strong charge, which basically just means all your hammer swings do more damage but also take longer to charge up

#

Similar animations to all the moves, except the strong LV3 has no spin

#

But to compensate the standing lv3 does big fucking damage

#

Fun fact tho
Whenever you switch charges you instantly go to LV3 tho

solemn orbit
#

what Unga means is

#

Git Gud

icy stump
#

So if you want you can just keep swapping to keep hitting the monster with lv 3 charges of both the normal and strong variety

#

This strategy gets even better with a switch skill you get in SB, but that's that's different animal entirely

#

Then if you know down the monster you can Mash The right face button (B I think on Xbox controls?) To do a long 5 hit combo for also big dick damage

Thing is, you have to land all 5 shots to get the combo to work

warped hawk
#

Thank you

icy stump
#

Anytime

icy stump
#

Oh also. Most important part of hammer

It does ko damage, so if you smack the monster in the face enough you knock it out and get a free damage opportunity

Charge attacks are best utilized for headsniping

solemn orbit
#

if you use a hammer you aime for the head anyway

#

no question asked.

#

same with HH

#

GS is just go and cut the tail if first if you're alone,otherwise head

heady goblet
#

Hammer really do be the worst KO weapon Soldge

solemn orbit
#

SnS is gud

icy stump
#

Hammer feels the best tho

solemn orbit
#

doot though

#

doooooooooooooooot.

heady goblet
#

Bow being the best because it's been overtuned af since world

solemn orbit
#

melee bow is fun

icy stump
#

Spead bow plus dodge bolt tho

solemn orbit
#

clearly the best way to hunt with a bow is to repeteadly smach the head with an arrow in between shots

warped hawk
#

All noted, thank you

icy stump
#

Ya try GS yet?

warped hawk
#

No, not yet

icy stump
#

Honestly I'd say that's the best weapon to learn on cause it forces ya to learn the monster patterns and stuff

#

Cause in execution it's piss easy

#

Hold Y on Xbox controller to charge, let go to do big hit

#

The hard part comes with positioning yourself to part snipe the monster

solemn orbit
#

and the hearder part comes witht he true charge slash

icy stump
#

Thankfully you can hit B mid charge to tackle (which has super armor/damage reduction) so it's not as punishing but still

solemn orbit
#

that can stop a monster charging at you if timed right

#

nothing is as satisfying as pulling that shit off

icy stump
#

Honestly, TCS is more of a farce than anything

#

Cause ya gotta like
Think 15 steps ahead to pull that shit off, as opposed to normal GS's 3

solemn orbit
#

gotta unga smart

icy stump
#

Also if you ever do play GS, always keep in mind

A lv2 hit does infinite more damage than a lv 3 whiff

#

Ironically normal Charge GS is one of the least Unga weapons in the game

#

surge slash on the other hand

#

That's Unga as hell

solemn orbit
#

still gs is fun

icy stump
#

Yeah

solemn orbit
#

I prefer HH

#

but HH is missing slashing damage

#

and I play solo a lot

icy stump
#

TCS is admittedly infinitely better when strongarm is a option, but that's a bit down the line

#

Honestly, Strongarm with charge combo is kinda boring
Strongarm with Surge slash tho is basically valor LS, but cooler

solemn orbit
icy stump
#

No
L+Ratio

icy stump
#

I think I'm hitting that point in my SB career where I actually start to get good at the game

#

Also change my mind
The best part of CB is getting the monster to run head first into your shield to knock themselves out

fiery fox
#

Help (ā€³ćƒ­ć‚›)

icy stump
#

Switch or PC?

#

Cause that's a fuckin bet right there

#

I got one with a anomaly monke
Kush
And valstrac

#

Also TU 3 is out lol

icy stump
#

Ok chaotic gore is ballin

icy stump
#

Ok read his set skill list

#

Chaotic gore unironically might be the most busted ass set in the fucking series If I'm understanding how it works correctly

heady goblet
#

What it do?

icy stump
#

Because it can (from how I'm reading it, spoiler marked in case ya don't wanna be spoiled):
||-give unlimited stamina
-dummy high damage
-dummy high crit rate
-extra damage on crit
-and make you FUNCTIONALLY IMMORTAL||

heady goblet
#

I need some screens

icy stump
#

More technically
||it's got 2 new skills, strife and berserk||

||berserk makes you lose ALL your health when you swap to blue scroll, turning the bar red, but as long as you have red, you can't die||

||strife gives a damage buff depending on how much of your HP gauge is red, if all of it is, you get unlimited stamina||

heady goblet
#

Unga

#

Send some pics of the skill descriptions

icy stump
heady goblet
#

Unga

icy stump
#

Skip like halfway

heady goblet
#

I don't want to watch a Rage Gaming video Unga

icy stump
#

Man
Right after I got my espicynas set to peak efficiency too

heady goblet
#

Seems like an interesting set

icy stump
#

My brother in Gog

You become functionally immortal

#

With a insane damage boost with the whole set

heady goblet
#

Unga

#

I don't think anyone besides you is gonna run full set

icy stump
#

From the bit of testing I did with the arms (which had berserk)
You don't actually take damage when you get hit on blue

#

It still just ticks down normally

#

On top of that
Anomaly fights just get trivialized by that, cause when you get hit by bloodblight, you Heal on hit
Healing is a option while on blue scroll, it's not negated or anything like that

Ergo
You can stay on blue for pretty much the entire fight

heady goblet
#

Strife doesn't look scroll specific

icy stump
#

And get:
A shitton of affinity
A shitton of raw
UNLIMITED stamina

heady goblet
#

Also

icy stump
#

Strife is not no

heady goblet
#

Where is the stamina coming from

icy stump
#

Strife

heady goblet
#

I didn't see that mentioned anywhere

icy stump
#

Strife lv 3

heady goblet
#

Interesting

icy stump
#

If you have enough red you get unlimited stamina

heady goblet
#

So the skills are basically tailored to bow

icy stump
#

This shits tailored to everything

heady goblet
#

Yeah, but bow is definitely going to benefit the most from it

#

Since it increases elemental attack

icy stump
#

Well also bow is like the best weapon in the game on top of that

So naturally it's a "rich get richer type deal"

heady goblet
#

It'll probably get pushed back to top 1 with this, yes

#

Since HBG probably won't benefit from this too much

#

What MR lock is Chaotic?

icy stump
#

Oh also
Food for thought
With all that affinity the full set can pretty reliably hut 100% affinity

Slap masters touch on there and viola

Your sharpness bar lasts way longer

#

Hes MR 10

heady goblet
#

110?

icy stump
#

No
Just 10

heady goblet
#

Oh

#

I'll hunt him over the weekend then

icy stump
#

Same lv as the first fuckin anomaly research quest with the azuros

#

I literally helped a person beat the game today and get to MR 10

They can get it

#

Right now

heady goblet
#

Man

icy stump
#

And become functionally immortal

#

WAIT HOL UP

#

DBs

heady goblet
#

I can't wait to theory craft with this set

#

True

#

They'll probably see a major buff from this set

icy stump
#

Like, all the other sets look kinda shitty compared to chaotic ngl

heady goblet
#

I mean, fair

icy stump
#

Risen kush seems neato tho

heady goblet
#

But how far are mixed sets gonna be pushed with this

#

Because

#

You only need 1 berserk and 3 Strife

#

And then everything else can go wild

icy stump
#

Risen kush got a funny new skill

heady goblet
#

Do these skills get decos?

icy stump
#

No

heady goblet
#

Or is that TU4

icy stump
#

The kush/toaster blessings got decos tho

#

OH WAIT THAT REMINDS ME

heady goblet
#

Also

#

I really like how relatively balanced MHRS has been so far

#

But that might just be bow gaming

#

I actually

#

Really want to stop having to grind shot types

icy stump
#

Gourmets fish right?
Basically let's you get kushes set bonus for a time? (Natural regen past red)

That can regenerate red HP through berserk somewhat
So, ergo
Kush 3 set bonus/recovery speed 3
Further reduces how much HP you drain to stay berserking

heady goblet
#

Can't you just let berserk run?

#

Or does it kill you

icy stump
#

You can but your red hp ticks down

heady goblet
#

Unlike Dereliction

icy stump
#

Once it runs out you die

heady goblet
#

Ah

icy stump
#

It's basically dereliction, but only on blue

heady goblet
#

That a fair bit of time to play with

icy stump
#

Also if you switch back to red half of your red bar becomes green again

heady goblet
#

Imagine there was a skill that only healed you on scroll swaps

#

Ah

icy stump
#

Quick breath is literally right there

#

Just get bubbly dance

#

Bam

heady goblet
#

So can you just spam scroll swaps to heal back to full, I imagine

#

Fun

icy stump
#

Well, no, cause you'd have to roll to build up bubbles passively, but yes
In theory you can kind of do that

#

Idk
Man I think chaotic broke the game balance

heady goblet
#

It was gonna happen eventually

#

Just wait until we get the Ahtal equivalent in MHRS

icy stump
#

Like on paper this build sounds waaaaaaaay better than anything else in gamew

#

Which is wierd considering how balanced the risen armors feel

#

Relatively speaking

heady goblet
#

Chaotic gaming

icy stump
#

Like chaotics set feels like a frontier set

heady goblet
#

How large is the affinity increase?

icy stump
#

Well it's got crit eye 6 at base

#

So thats 30

#

Dunno about strife

heady goblet
#

Is there a Wex+ deco? Please say there isn't

icy stump
#

If you use the chaotic GS with bloodlust and beat the frenzy that gets 65% affinity

#

So right there, before anything else
The set has a 95% crit rate

heady goblet
#

Beautiful

#

Absolutely balanced

icy stump
#

There is not wex+ deco

heady goblet
#

Not at all broken

icy stump
#

Also the set has 2 lvs of crit boost by default

#

Because we need MOAR DAMAGE

heady goblet
#

Lol

#

Lmao

#

Man

#

I can't wait to get my fucking hands on this thing with Harnistaj on the weekend

icy stump
#

Also a lv of elemental exploit!

heady goblet
#

I am going to shit damage

icy stump
#

Because fuck it
HAVE MORE DAMAGE

heady goblet
#

The set will probably be
Bers 2
Strife 3
CB 3
EE
And some QoL

icy stump
#

Genuinely, I have half a mind to use the new melding thing, specify attack for the skill, get as much attack as I can on there, and throw on some masters touch/a lv of crit boost

#

Literally shit damage

#

As in

#

I lill go take a crap
And it'll be bigger dps numbers

heady goblet
#

I can't wait to hear Harnistaj's reaction

icy stump
#

Oh also, I dunno if I mentioned this but

The fucking set has max resuscitate/resentment too btw

#

Because again

#

WE NEED MORE FUCKING DAMAGE

heady goblet
#

True and real

icy stump
#

Also the set has a shitton of 3 slots

#

Yknow what that's for?

heady goblet
#

Damage

icy stump
#

Handicraft
So you can get purple
FOR YET MORE FUCKING DAMAGE

heady goblet
#

I can't wait for crit conversion to drop on the next TU

icy stump
#

What's that do again?
Convert extra crit chance over 100% to damage?

heady goblet
#

Yep

#

1% = 1% more crit damage

icy stump
#

Oh fun fact
We got a redirection + deco, so you can max it out for one measly 4 slot

#

Thing is

#

WHEN THE FUCK AM I GONNA NEED IT WHEN BERSERK EXISTS?!?

#

Like I wanna use it

#

Problem

heady goblet
#

Build diversity

#

Like why mixed sets exist

icy stump
#

Redirection don't play nice with scroll skills in general

#

Dereliction? Kiss your accrued damage buff good bye

Furious? Enjoy cutting the infinite stamina period short

Mail of hellfire?.... actually doesn't conflict that much

Berserk?
everyother time you redirection parry you essentially lose half your bar

#

I'm just kinda besides myself at this point with how absurd chaotic gear is

#

Can't wait to get my grubby Lil hands on it

heady goblet
#

Same

icy stump
#

Oh also chaotic gore got a fun fight

heady goblet
#

I am going to cook up the devil's sets

icy stump
#

He has some uh
interesting moves to say the least

#

Glad to say
His themes back

heady goblet
#

Cool

#

I wonder when we get the batshit fights

icy stump
#

Anomaly lv 200 prolly

heady goblet
#

I meant single monsters

icy stump
#

Oh that's right
New Qurio armor augments AR tied to living past 120 now

heady goblet
#

Bruh

icy stump
#

Apparently they at least made I easier to grind all that out

#

Can't wait to just go berserk all over a anomaly furious rajang/scorned magnamalo and go "lmao, imagine needing to worry about silly shit like HEALTH?"

icy stump
#

Tomorrow I grind out the chaotic gore gear and do some proper testing

#

On one hand I'm kinda hoping it's less busted than expected

On the other having a op set sounds funny/will make grinding to that damn anomaly lv 200 much better

dark ivy
#

Rise up Gunlancers!

#

No longer are we beholden to Lucent Narga pieces

#

We got Sneak Attack decos now

icy stump
#

Oh you'll prolly like risen kush armor come to think of it

#

REALLY?

#

Hbu adrenaline rush?

#

Please tell me we got adrenaline rush

dark ivy
#

It’s a Level 2 deco

icy stump
#

WOOOOOOOOOO

warped hawk
#

I saw a patch

#

What it was

icy stump
#

IM GOING ON THE FUCKIN WARPATH TO GET THAT NOW

icy stump
warped hawk
#

I mean the contents of patch
I didn't read the notes yet

icy stump
#

They pretty much just added stuff for endgame

#

Iirc not to much balance stuff

warped hawk
#

I see, thanks

dark ivy
#

I heard through the datamine grapevine that eventually Anomaly Investigations will go up to Level 300

icy stump
#

I assume adrenaline rush decos are tied to new anomaly lvs?

dark ivy
#

Probably

#

Gotta grind for new endgame mats

#

At least I have a shit-ton of content to work through when I get back to the game

#

I got a little burned out around Level 70

icy stump
#

My favorite thing about chaotic gore is bringing his GS into any normal hunt against monsters with frenzy and just kinda getting UNLIMITED C R I T

dark ivy
#

Chaotic Gore is pretty stoopid with that special effect

icy stump
#

Also love those weapons cause they make brutal strike inherently better

#

It balances out the weapon better

icy stump
#

Ok did some proper monster testing with berserk

#

Couple of things
-beating bloodlusts unique frenzy is best done while on blue scroll, because since it heals your red health, but you only have red, so your red health is essentially doubled, acting as a free max potion in general use scenarios
-berserks drain seems to scale up over time to make it so you can't just stay unkillable the whole hunt
-getting hit doesn't do damage in the traditional sense, but it does seem to spike up berserks drain rate for a bit

#

Also gourmet fish/kush blessing 3 with recovery speed maxed seems to be a good way to keep yourself up and kicking with the set, even better if you get super recovery dango

icy stump
#

This shit nerve wracking but also fun as hell

#

Also I think the getting hit increasing hp drain scales with the initial damage
One hit from risen kush massively increases drain

#

However tbf
That was me going into the fight with un upgraded armor, so the def prolly will be more manageable

dark ivy
#

Okay…

#

Chaotic Gore doggo armor is pretty sick

icy stump
#

Yeah

#

But the actual set is mental

dark ivy
#

Looks like it

#

Rise / Sunbreak in general seems very generous with power creep

icy stump
#

You aquire a quantum state of invincibility, yet also destructability

dark ivy
#

And players though it was bad in Worldborne

icy stump
#

Honestly, I feel like rises was pretty reasonable so far

#

Like the new skills are good, but they don't completely blow the old ones out of the water

#

Then chaotic happened

#

He alone kinda throws that whole idea out the window

dark ivy
#

Well, with Worldborne it was a matter of quantity

#

Compared to previous games Hunters could afford a lot of skills

#

In Rise / Sunbreak, shit just be OP

#

I’ve always felt pretty absurd

solemn orbit
#

I have seen the error of my ways

#

and I will now go back to the holy weapon

#

holiest of all

#

the DOOT.

heady goblet
icy stump
#

We were on our last cart btw

#

I think I peaked

icy stump
#

Mans gets ratio'd in the fattest way possible, for the worst hot take
(Question was if chaotic gore's were permanent)

#

Don't cap Chaotic Gores everybody

icy stump
#

Sickos

solemn orbit
#

right ? who th ehell uses lightmode.

icy stump
#

I'm never doing join request chaotic gore again

solemn orbit
icy stump
#

They keep capping it

solemn orbit
#

I really should catch up on my pc save

warped hawk
#

Why you're awake so early SOLKEKW

solemn orbit
#

all tghis fun stuffa dded

#

and I still didn't finish sunbreak on switch anyway

icy stump
warped hawk
#

I'm sorry šŸ«‚

icy stump
#

Nah its all good

solemn orbit
#

most of the time when it happens to me it's when I go to sleep

#

...I think I'm not mad about it anymore

icy stump
#

That shit woke me up

#

I was like "my nose feel funny"
Then it hit me

solemn orbit
#

yeah,I had it enough time to notice quickly

#

"ah,something's running down my nose...wait a fucking second it's too liquidy and warm fuck

#

and that's why I ALWAYS have tissues on me

#

happens like,twice a year or something

#

but when it does it's a fucking mess

icy stump
#

I get spontaneous bloody noses

#

No one expects the bloody nose inquisition!

solemn orbit
#

yeah,like out of nowhere for no reasons with no warnings ? pretty much what I got,fortunately it's still rare

#

I jsut got gud at noticing whne it starts flowing before there's blood everywhere

icy stump
#

Today I managed to solo risen kush in 17'35 with zero carts

#

Today is a good day

icy stump
#

I fought risen toaster today

It's no longer a good day

icy stump
#

Risen chammy/kush is fun cause they feels like they add alot to the base fights

Risen toaster is "hur dur, more Unga bungsplosions go brrr"

icy stump
#

Fuckin hate risen toaster
But thank God I got all his shit so I never need to fight him again

heady goblet
#

Unga

#

Why did you not tell me the Chaotic Gore HBG is fucking cracked

icy stump
#

I didn't look at it

#

Now that I DID, idk how it's so fucking cracked

#

The ammo table confuses me

icy stump
#

Yknow
When you really think about it

Chaotic gore magala is just a gore magala that's permanently stuck puberty

#

No wonder why it's so angsty

heady goblet
#

It's a bit more drastic than that, but sure

icy stump
#

Always remember
Capping chaotic Gore is literally the worst thing you can do

heady goblet
#

Indeed

#

Killing Chaotic is always a mercy killing

icy stump
#

Funny how I'm willing to give him even that much, considering how bad the normal magalas beat my ass at first back in 4U

heady goblet
#

I mean

#

Do you really want the eternal suffering of a creature potentially weighing upon your conscience

icy stump
#

That fucker kicked my ass 9+ times in a row

heady goblet
#

Sounds like a skill issue

icy stump
#

I've yet to encounter a monster to beat me that many times subsequently in a row

icy stump
#

Back when I didn't realise physically making a HR set actually had benefits, so I just upgraded my LR rath set until I hit G rank

heady goblet
#

On another note

#

Do not get grabbed by Chaotic Gore Magala

icy stump
#

Oh yeah
I know

#

That grab is fuckin brutal

heady goblet
#

Harnistaj got 1 shot by it

icy stump
#

I love the animation on it tho

#

Really sells how batshit insane gore gets

#

When it goes chaotic

#

Also
Fucker has triple Geyser

heady goblet
#

True and real

#

Make it a Quadruple gyser

icy stump
#

Wait he shots 4?!?

heady goblet
#

No

#

But he should

icy stump
#

That would be funny

#

Also gotta say
Listening to cannonball while in a full chaotic gore set is a fuckin mood

#

I'm not fighting the monster at that point
I'm fighting my own health bar

#

Smacking The monster is vital to keeping that up, so he gotta die

dark ivy
#

Needed to get a damn SD card and cause of Internet issues it took all night…but I finally got TU3 downloaded

icy stump
#

Chaotic gore is cool

icy stump
solemn orbit
#

I should try to catch up on my pc save before crossplay hit for strive

heady goblet
warped hawk
#

I'm just slowly going, didn't play much recently

heady goblet
#

Same, been Sin gaming

solemn orbit
#

nah I'm good

#

if I do'nt waste time I'll catch up soon

#

but I'm doing a bunch of stuff at teh same time

heady goblet
solemn orbit
#

catching up on some books I haven't read yet,drawing practice,back to electric guitar as well (my finger hurts)

#

all that sure takes time

heady goblet
#

I want to hunt together sometime, Tako

solemn orbit
#

as soon as I'm caught up

heady goblet
solemn orbit
#

for the record,last time I played I unlocked and I think I did the second village "special test" thingy to skip some of the low rank upquests

#

once I go back there,it won't take long to catch up

#

it's not like I'm going to redo every hunt this time

#

not until I'm caught up

#

also,I should do soem sidequests thingy (like getting the other 2 submarines)

#

the sooner the better

heady goblet
#

Can I have the roughest estimate possible of when you'll be caught up

solemn orbit
#

around 2 wqeeks ?

heady goblet
#

Here's hoping

solemn orbit
#

nah honestly I have no fucking clue

#

the more I try to give myself a schedule the less likely I am to follow it

#

I still have almost 2 re zero volumes (light novel) to finish as well...mangas are quick to read,novels take more time

#

plus I'll need to remake my old calamity horn as well before going into sunbreak

#

since it's so fucking good for like half of it

solemn orbit
#

ah,I had it wrong,it's the 3rd special test I have unlocked

#

now I'm gonna beat the shit out of it.

heady goblet
solemn orbit
#

there are 3 special tests in village quests that makes you skip gathering hub quests

#

that way you get in high rank faster if you don't feel like going through all lower rank,again

#

and I don't give a shit this time since I did them on switch before anyway

#

ah,just remembered

#

...do you know if it still asks for a lot of HR rank grinding before getting to sunbreak now or...?

heady goblet
#

I don't think so

#

You might still have to do Allmother though

solemn orbit
#

that was the stupid part about rise,all the stupid HR grind to unlock quests

#

yeah all mother is fiiiiine

#

and done

#

to high rank now

#

oh right,calamity quests...ugh...

heady goblet
#

Rampage LeoPain

solemn orbit
#

he ded

#

I sure forgot how much of a pain those quests can be solo hu

icy stump
#

So you can just skip all the post-game base rise stuff

solemn orbit
#

I'll see what I do when I get there

#

ot like there's much of a point re grinding rise endgame anyway,especially since I did it on switch before sunbreak

#

still hoping back and forth between GS and HH too

heady goblet
#

@solemn orbit how goes huntering?

solemn orbit
#

I did one HR quest

solemn orbit
#

yesterday

heady goblet
#

Okay

#

Now do it again today

solemn orbit
#

shh I must hurt my fingers first

icy stump
#

Peak MH Brain

solemn orbit
#

no we make an exception for this one

warped hawk
#

... why
And why you're horni y'all ConfusedMayFace

icy stump
#

Em posted the art

#

MH brain says kill

#

Kill=/=horny

#

Tako horny

#

No kill=horny
Kill=no horny

heady goblet
#

@solemn orbit how goes the huntering?

solemn orbit
#

I finished a first hrset of armor and weaopon upgrade

#

I've still only done 1 hr keyquest though

heady goblet
solemn orbit
#

shhhh I've been setting up software for my electric gutiar now tha tI'm back at it,plus drawing

#

plus I just got blazblue cf

heady goblet
#

You're gonna be pressed on that pre-crossplay goal

solemn orbit
#

the moment I set that goal it became less likely to happen

heady goblet
#

The offer for help still stands btw

solemn orbit
#

yeah,but naaaaaaaaaaaaaah,I don't like getting carried

#

at all

#

I'll prolly play it a lot next week,I think

#

once I'm more setttled in other stuff

#

after all,while my arms tire less quickly witht he stick,they still get tired

heady goblet
#

What do you think causes your arms to tire so quickly by the way?

solemn orbit
#

oh,they don't tire quickly anymore withthe stick,it's all good,it was jack-o's crazy input I wan't used to that absolutely killed my shoulders

solemn orbit
#

now they're finally back to a normal state,I guess

#

plus I'm not exactly the sporty type

#

the little workout I did on my own plus the sticd was enough to bring it back to normal

heady goblet
solemn orbit
#

I've got good legs since I don't have a car and barely ever use the bus though

#

but my breathing is shite I need proper gym training

solemn orbit
#

first lvl of hr completed

heady goblet
#

Very nice

solemn orbit
#

sure is easier for me to play HH than GS hu

#

hunt went from 15 min to 10 minutes

heady goblet
solemn orbit
#

I thought I was going to main GS there but nah back to the doot

#

the ol' reliable

icy stump
#

Apparently rise is coming to literally everyother platform in January

#

Here's hoping they just say fuck it and give us crossplay

solemn orbit
#

ah yes,monster hunter rise coming to ps5

#

after I got it on pc

#

at least so far it's running mostly smoothly on my pc,but my pc's nota s good as ps5

#

(pc running the game at a 50/60 fps so far)

warped hawk
solemn orbit
#

it's your first monster hunter you'll learn

#

also

#

still in low rank/village quests ?

warped hawk
#

Yes

solemn orbit
#

have you tried getting good

warped hawk
#

No

#

It was 3* level quest

#

I got 800 gold less

solemn orbit
#

it's fine it's fine

#

gotta start somewhere

#

...don't worry you'll be hit with worse soon enough

warped hawk
#

How do Light/Heavy Bowgun and Bow differ from each other?

#

I want to try something ranged

solemn orbit
#

loads of different ones

#

bows have a more variety on the type of shot and sue coatings

#

(pierce bow,spread bows...)

#

lbg has more mobility than hbg

#

just try them all in training room

warped hawk
#

šŸ‘

solemn orbit
#

lbg and hbg are a pain to me

#

so many bulets types

warped hawk
#

I crafted a bow

#

Now I need to look at where I can get coatings and arrows?

solemn orbit
#

you can make them

#

look at your crafting list

#

also buy them

#

you don't use them all the time anyway

#

unless you're going melee and using the one that makes melee arrows hit harder,but that' with specfic bows

#

that's how I play bow when I do

#

also,bows have a specific range to hit their full damage

#

also

#

different type of arrows for each bows at different charge lvls

#

gotta keep all that in mind

#

bow isn't as complicated as lbg and hbg but still

heady goblet
#

Bow is also the mobility king post Gen 5

solemn orbit
#

buy a bunch and then you keep picking up items to craft and that's it

solemn orbit
#

I don't even use dragon piercer

heady goblet
#

Good

#

Dragon Piercer is actually the worst thing Bow has

solemn orbit
heady goblet
#

It's designed to take advantage of Bow's Raw, but all it ends up being is subpar

solemn orbit
#

I think I had a fun clip from rise bow let me check

heady goblet
#

Bow is also the best when it comes to cool win screens

solemn orbit
#

alright nevermind choppy clip cus switch

#

:/

#

it's jhust 30 second of mizutsune bullying with melee bow poor thing can't hit me

#

:x

#

I should still check if I can post it

heady goblet
#

Lemme find a decent clip I got

solemn orbit
#

ooooh it fits without compressing

#

neat.

heady goblet
#

I think you'd really like the new Bow melee

solemn orbit
#

sunbreak added more fun melee stuff ?

heady goblet
#

Yeah

solemn orbit
#

I haven't played it in sunbreak

#

I might move to bow again then

#

huhuhhuh

heady goblet
#

You shank the monster, and then the arrow sticks inside the part you shanked to deal bonus damage

solemn orbit
#

but HH though

#

hmmmm

#

hmm...

#

also I do feel like a glass cannon when playing bow

solemn orbit
#

I'm either never hit or getting destroyed

solemn orbit
heady goblet
#

I do not have my spread bows done, actually

#

Mainly due to my desire to never hunt a Khezu again

heady goblet
#

Yes, that monster

solemn orbit
#

khezu's not so bad in rise

#

it's not like in older stuff where he could stunroar three times in a row then charge at you while you're recovering from it

heady goblet
#

I actually just think they're boring

solemn orbit
#

sounds like coping

solemn orbit
warped hawk
heady goblet
#

I believe it's default UI in Sunbreak

warped hawk
#

Right, it's switch skills?

#

That could be why

heady goblet
#

Yeah

solemn orbit
#

hmm,sin't it in sunbreak though

#

when you unlock the change switch skills

heady goblet
#

Yeah

solemn orbit
#

I'm not sure I saw it before that

warped hawk
heady goblet
#

How's your huntering going btw Tako?

solemn orbit
#

I did one hunt today

#

it's okay I completed enough key quests in high rank yesterday plus the emergency quest to unlock the second lvl of hr quests

#

and did kulu ya ku set for HH purpose

icy stump
#

There is no greater relief than beating a pain in the ass quest with almost no time/one cart left

#

I got a endgame furious rajang lv 120 investigation that has a max time limit of 30 min and 1 cart=fail

#

PAIN

#

That shit good tho, cause I gives a whole ass research lv everytime ya beat it

#

Slight issue

#

ya have to beat it

heady goblet
#

I would argue triumphing after an absolutely brutal Soulsborne boss feels better, but that feeling in MH is definitely close

icy stump
#

There is no greater panic than seeing "10 minutes remaining" and you notice it's health ain't even in the blue yet

#

Then right as you get it down to blue you get the "5 minutes remaining"

#

Bruh, I was Sprinting after that monke

heady goblet
#

No, but you can't tell me that working on a boss for sometimes weeks at a time isn't more satisfying after finally overcoming it

icy stump
#

I mean I guess, but that's like, accrued over a day/couple of hours

#

I speedran through the stages of grief in 30 minutes

heady goblet
#

No I mean like sitting down for 5-6 hours a day every day over the course of say 3-4 weeks for example

icy stump
#

Like I was doing it with someone else, and that was scary too, cause they could just randomly drop dead

icy stump
heady goblet
#

Defiled Chalice Amygdala

#

And I heard someone took 2 months to beat Midir once

#

And that's just regular runs

icy stump
#

Those like endgame bosses or...?

heady goblet
#

Yes, but the average boss kill can take 3-4 hours

#

The harder ones can take 9+

icy stump
#

Geez

#

Oh also fun part of the super furious George investigation

THE PERSON I WAS PLAYING WITH DIDNT HAVE STUN RESIST, SO I HAD TO GO SAVE THEIR ASS A COUPLE OF TIMES

heady goblet
#

The longest I've ever heard of someone taking to beat a boss in Elden Ring was for a roll only challenge run, where he took 3 weeks of 40+ minute attempts to get past the first phase of the final boss, and several more to beat both phases with the final attempt taking I think maybe 2 hours

icy stump
#

Geez
