What is Monster Hunter?

Welcome to the game where in the goal is to kill off these guys with some form of pointy or shooty implement.

Monster Hunter is a series about hunting little things, making weapons and armor from the bits of the little things then eventually using those weapons and armor to hunt bigger things. Repeat until the next game in the series comes out.

And because I'm getting fucking silly with this:

New thread smell, old thread look.

How long now until I can murder a giant invading pickle with teeth and make clothes out of it?

About a month. I am so looking forward to the pickle fight

This weekend I will finish the new thread revamp.

Hahnsoo1

I followed some tracks and found the thread. *eats Might Pill* Let's do this!

Preacher

I did have a scary moment last night when I was looking for Kushala. Went to where I thought he normally showed up, did not see him, turned around and he was literally right behind me.

Hahnsoo1

My favorite quote (as in the favorite thing I said) last thread:

In Monster Hunter, you literally smell unicorn farts in the endgame. I love this game.

vagrant_winds

So, how do we think G Rank will work this time? New game like in the past? Expansion DLC Title Update (with a rereleased physical version)?

Seidkona

I think they will do the second.

navgoose

So, what monster would be best for a super tiny/huge version of in an event?

vagrant_winds

So... I guess Angie is the first fight in this game that's seperating the wheat from the chaff and forcing newbies to learn and adapt. I've seen so much on that fight online, both praise/pride and massive rage.

People either improve themselves and become hunters, or blame everything but themselves and become quitters right about at that fight.

Traditionally, it's a tiny Uragaan. I could see that or Radobaan. Maybe Dodo. A giant Kulu Ya Ku would be hilarious. A giant Odogaron would be horrifying, but probably actually easier than the regular one because you'd have a LOT more room under him to fight.

Tiny radobaan. Super size Zorah (I kid)

Tiny Rathian, Super Huge Diablos.

Tiny Zorah Magdaros. But you still have to fight him with Ballista and Cannons. You fight him in an Arena, spending most of the time slowly luring him to the Dragonator in the Arena.

Spaffy

Here is how dumb I am. I hit high rank yesterday and did not know:

There are different Palico gadgets than Vigorwasp.

Everyone has a slinger (I thought it was a main weapon class) so I’ve never even tried to use it.

There are quest givers outside of the Hubs.

You can carve the pieces of monsters that you break off.

Food at the canteen is made with ingredients you had farmed (I thought you just bought them from the chef)

Bleed Dog's tail whips still get me more than any other monster. He's the one monster that I feel experienced on but can still randomly cart me.

Preacher

Odo's bleed can catch you, on top of that combined with effluvia it can wreck your ass.

So dung pods are the real money/mats sink right?

Dung has always been the most important resource in the game. MOST IMPORTANT.

>.>

<.<

Preacher

I never use it.

Also to "well actually" a post from the last thread. The fire great sword with nergy damage is the Anjy one, the rathalos sword has less damage. But the anjy sword needs 5 vaal hazak teeth.

Beezel

really want a 'blos or Nerg hammer but god fighting Diablos is like doing a fucking book report on The Scarlet Letter.

Sure to get an A?

I'll see myself out.

navgoose

Regular Blos is a chump with bow. But also seems like it is also the least changed monster from my experience in Tri.

I hear variant Blos is tougher.

Juggernut

Jeez. Finally took down the Anjanath with some help from 3 other randos. One of whom fainted.

That was tough.

Seidkona

If there is no Tiny Urgaan it would be a travesty.

Rathian is pretty much the same fight she's always been, but I appreciate that regularity...

Black Diablos also feels similar to her previous variant, but she's still a mega charging triple head swinging bitch.

At one point I had climbed up onto a cliff to try and jump down onto it's back only for the stupid thing to jump up and head butt me in midair, sending me flying backwards.

I think the toughest part of that fight for me was the seeming lack of hitboxes. The butt felt like the safest place to land crits on the tail but the way it stood had most of its back end high enough up in the air that I could only land one hit with an uppercut from my axe before it turned around and did that bs wallow charge thing.

I'll accept Radobaan there though as the new model.

I don't want to live in a world without Tiny Uragaan.

Anjanath just has really annoying movement where his follow through on attacks take him so far away that you can really only counterattack him when it does certain attacks. It's pretty much the same with Diablos. If they get out of a flinch/knockdown lock they just run all over the place until you can nick them enough to make them stand still for a sec. At least with rathalos you just flash them and tell them to take a dirtnap for a little bit. I think it's why I like the jaggi monsters because yeah they jump around like theyre on crack, but theyre usually at least close to you. And Kula just wants to show you his pet rock.

TamerBill

I’ll accept Tiny Uragaan only if I can catch it in my capture net and keep it in my room.

tastydonuts

btw: whoever told me I could use capture nets to break horns. that process is arguably worse than just taking a chance of decapitating the poor things with an overhead smash.

chasing it around and shooting that net for 2 damage...

you are a terrible person and you should feel bad.

Dr. Chaos

I will accept Tiny Deviljho but only if he's edible.

I always feel kinda bad about stone cold mercing the Kula. Dudes just trying collect pots and rocks n stuff.

because it totally sounds like a prank

Dracil

It's just a weaker version of a rock. You can use rocks or capture nets to kill bugs and leave their carcass too.

navgoose

Work bro is having Anja troubles. The weirdest part is how unfamiliar it is for me to have RL people playing Monster Hunter.

How did this one jump mainstream? Not that I mind.

Sonic Blos in the ground and it flails helpless for a bit.

I do not know what sick person encouraged that death by a thousand cuts. But they evidently hate Kelbi. Probably Preacher. >_>

throwing rocks at the Kelbi usually results in body shots, because of how the lock on feature works. which is why I was looking for an alternative means of hitting them on the horn.

I do use the slinger and stuff to kill bugs intact. it just doesn't seem to work with the Kelbi, which I don't want to kill so much as take their horns. Safaris seem to be the best way to get them though because I'm assuming that the Palico aren't just murdering the Kelbi for the horns and if they are my hunter isn't asking questions.

edit: If you tag attack them fast enough to kill them before your kinsect arrives, that also keeps their corpses intact.

Lilnoobs

I've had pretty high success rates with Kelbi horns by using the lance and just poking them.
