Because I was on YouTube already, I looked up some of my more favorite MH videos. The Kyu-Kyu-Kyu-Nyaa dancing ones (see my avatar) and such. Ran into this old nugget (cracks me up every time): https://youtu.be/oeU3-0QAbNE
I feel like I should probably learn items if I'm going to advance at all in G rank, what's a good loadout to bring as a charge blader? No idea about sonic bombs, defense nuts and what have you.
My default blademaster set is
Potions
Mega Potions
Whetstones
Flash Bombs
Dung Bombs
Whatever stamina thing
Pitfall Trap
Shock Trap
Tranq Bombs
Lifepowders
Dusts of Life
All four Power/Armor charms
Steam Bombs
Pickaxe
Bugnet
Steam bombs almost entirely obsolete any other status cure item. Only downside is the long duration can be a hindrance when you can't drop a second if you get afflicted again.
Barrel Bomb +, Hot/Cool Drinks, and Sonic Bombs are added as necessary. Drinks should maybe be part of the default set, for convenience, and also because it is not so good forgetting cool drinks.
Max Potions/Farcaster for particularly hard fights.
I should probably be bringing along an attack/armor flute, too...

My standard kit is pretty similar. I don't bother with small potions and carry Herbal Medicines instead because poison is pretty common and burning a steam bomb on it seems wasteful. I also don't "maindeck" flashes, only taking them for the obnxious flying things. I do, however, keep two Maxes and one Ancient on hand because carts (and bullshit chain attacks) happen.
The beauty of 4U is using Item Sets. I have the standard one, one with flashes, one with sonics, one with hots, one with cools, and stripped-down lists for fighting elders or gathering. The only time I need to use "Take Items" is when I want to combine them (e.g., sonics and flashes, or cools and flashes) because I'm too lazy to pre-make every permutation.
Thanks for the rank up, guys! Sorry I couldn't stay on longer — I really wanted to check out Chameleos, too. Being responsible sucks sometimes. Next time!

The new DLC for this month is up and can be downloaded via the "DLC" option at the title menu.
There's several new events, including the ones for Super Mario Bros. and Sonic the Hedgehog, a couple of Challenge Quests, a new Episodic Quest, plus some new guild card backgrounds, titles, and poses.

Double Kirin arena seems like THE WORST IDEA, though.
This is a thing we need to do sometime if I ever get caught up to you guys.
On a related note, I desperately need to make some armor that doesn't conduct electricity.
I really like the look of the Chaos Gore armor and the skills are OK (always like a decent Awaken set) but THREE elemental weaknesses? Fire, Thunder, AND Dragon? Why!?
I was having issues downloading the dlc this morning, friend of mine mentioned he couldn't do it in game, but could do it out of game. So there's that for anyone having problems.
I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.
My wife and I are both stuck at P.Rath as well. We just basically autocart against her.
Wife has been experimenting with other weapons, and I've been grinding Caravan to out class P.Rath with gear.
I honestly don't like the unlock system very much. Like, more unique monsters should be instantly and easily unlocked with six star. I've already killed all of these monsters, stop making me kill even more Tigrex and Rathlos. I don't want to fight them anymore, I don't want their gear. Give me something new!
I know it's all there, it's just hidden behind fights I've already done. Minor frustration.
We had some fun hunts last night. In one hunt, we were doing a Seregios + Rathalos. We beat the Rathalos back to his lair area and I laid down a trap in his little egg nest. Unfortunately, we kill him before he got captured. No biggie, lost a trap. We proceed to a different area and beat up the Seregios, and he flies to go to sleep... to the lair area. We were unable to beat him back to the lair, but before we arrived, he triggered the trap that was left behind. I'm like "Great, now we have to capture him while he's flailing around and not asleep." We get there, and he's asleep! This means that he landed, got trapped and electrocuted, shook it off, then went right to sleep afterwards. It was an easy capture after that. I was cracking up, because could you imagine this from the Seregios perspective? "I'm just going to take a nice little nap and..." *BZZT* "OH GOD IT BURNS TASERBED WHYYYYY?"
We also had a dual Cephadrome hunt where we were carving a Cephadrome right as the other Cephadrome was arriving. "I'll just go over here and visit my friend Phil in Zone 2... OH GOD, PHIL, PHILLL! WHAT ARE THEY DOING TO YOUR BODY???"

You might want to consider gemming in some antidote jewels to get negate poison.
She becomes pretty harmless when you have the anti-poison skill.
Mostly just huntin' monsters.

Also consider seeing if you can get a fire resistance of 20, which will prevent you from having to stop, drop, and roll if she catches you with her blasts.
Honestly, I think having more than two people against Pink Rathian might REDUCE your chance of success. After a point, more people just means more opportunities to cart off of every tail whip.

I think it would be funny if other monsters leave the zone when a khezu shows up just because its there.
"What the fuck? No, that's wrong, I'm out."

New monster- Gigakhezu
fight takes place inside the khezu
everything is khezu
you are khezu
Not just no music. It would be dead silent.

Dragon Toadstools
Because Mushromancy is just the best.
(You can carry 10 dragon toadstools, and Mushromancy makes them Max Potions)

Pfft, set aside like 2 or 3 hours and you can get from hr3 to g rank. Gotta go fast or something.
I haven't had the time lately to play that much.

So instead I just die to black gravios in caravan once every couple days and slowly forget how to play MH4.
I'm going to be home in like six hours and be home for most of tomorrow.
Poke me anytime around there and I'll totally grab some LR gear and run with you.

Any free game time I have I have mostly been playing solo because It's only in small chunks. I am up to caravan 8, towards the end.

Which, well... I'm not that good.
One of the projects we're working on is building her a suit that can slot in poison without losing the other stuff she wants.
