    Helmet on MR magnamalo samurai set ruins it with the dumb wig hanging out the back.

    Thankfully you can replace it with the LR/HR one and it becomes perfect.

    Goldthian having no 45 hitboxes except it's tail tip (and head when enraged), but a 44 hitbox, feels like a troll specifically aimed at Dualies. No spiral slash for you!

    if it's anything like world, the head hitbox will change to 50-60? when broken, but good luck getting there

    Yeah, when Rathian goes nuclear reactor mode and it breaks, her face becomes soft like mashed potatoes.

    I think the head hitbox goes super soft only when it's in blue-fire mode, which can happen whether or not it's enraged.

    right but the hzv should also change when the part is broken, in addition to the enrage. but that's how it was in world so mmv

    Gold Rathian was 1000% easier than silver rathalos. Where silver has fast, erratic attacks in multiple directions, gold seems to mostly do the same kind of stuff as a regular rathian. Specifically she spams the 'hang in the air and do a 360 tail flip twice in a row' move and its laughably simple to avoid for anyone getting to this point.

    I just did the MR allmother and that's still a really fun fight, and heavenly dance along her entire length is possibly the most satisfying thing in the game.

    You probably could've skipped Ninja given the general aesthetic of Rise/SB.

    honestly, it wasn't super easy to find a good ninja aesthetic i liked. there's a lot more samurai armors than ninja ones i feel.

    Fair. I think my headspace was that the base starting Kamura set is already straight from Naruto. That supplements the Utushi's set(s) and Narga, with maybe also the Chameleos head if you have the corresponding body type.

    wait, is the utsushi set paid DLC? As for chameleos, it's only the HR version that looks remotely ninja-y and i didn't have the mats for that.

    utsushi is from a subreak quest I think

    They released a new wave of paid DLC cosmetics and since i always buy them with my accumulated gold coins/Extra leftovers from other purchases over time i bought the Fio and Utsushi layered armor sets

    I expecting them to be the armor.

    They are not.

    Equipping these layered armors completely turns you into Utsushi and Fios models complete with hairstyle. Regardless of gender

    they added the voice packs too so you can do a full cosplay

    i don't really care but i can imagine there's lots of people out there who want to play as fiorayne

    (world had some full body skins for some of the collab quests, like the RE2, Witcher, and Horizon events)

    how complicated a process is modding

    does it mess up every pstch or anything

    i'm tempted to add that one and the multiplayer damage counter but if it requires any maintenance or effort i won't bother

    Well I had another mod installed (60fps cutscenes) and I didn't have to update it with the most recent patch. If you use Nexus Mods, they have a mod manager that keeps mods updated automatically for you. (Not using it now, but I've used it before and it works well).

    So far, modding the game is just a matter of dragging and dropping some folders into your game, nothing is overwritten.

    Edit: Word of caution: if you go into Nexus Mods, you will see a stupid amount of "naked hunter" mods.

    so i can gauge how well i'm performing in multiplayer hunts and then grow increasingly toxic and competitive and start kicking people who aren't contributing enough and then finally hit the end stage of toxicity where i begin kicking people for doing more damage than me

    I decided to dip my toes into multi this week after playing through all of the content up to this update solo.

    Investigations seem to go fine, and much quicker than doing them solo.

    Individual hunts, on the other hand... I had one a bit ago where the targets were a Gold Rathian and Furious Rajang. The Rathian died just as I got on the scene, and the Rajang was right there, so we got it down to weakened state fairly quickly. And then someone captured it. Meaning we got nothing from the Rathian, since no one had a chance to carve it.

    Like... why would you do that?

    Better to cap than to risk carting I guess.

    Also I am at 5 51+ anomaly investigations cleared with no A5* targets. This is stupid.

    I haven’t been able to really grind in this title update at all. I think I may just need to stop monster huntering for a while.

    Edit: I've put a lot of hours into 2 separate games and I just think there's nothing new enough for me to jump back in right now. I might even wait until the next TU.

    you really need to do multiplayer to make much headway into the investigations; investigations seed similar investigations so playing solo you're gonna climb the ranks on the same few monsters, never work towards the rotating targets, etc

    if you just do a multiplayer search, you might find an active investigation for your target, you'll get your own for it afterward, and then you'll start getting other investigations of the same tier from that

    it's honestly a weirdly hostile progression system

    in the meantime i've gotten some pretty nice rolls on stuff; extra attack boost on the malzeno legs, chain crit on the rondine chest, lost rapid morph but picked up chain crit on death stench legs, which is a very nice trade, similarly traded resentment for rapid morph on the final boss chest piece

    targeting the kushala blessing and teo blessing pieces next, since the blessing skills are irreplaceable but the pieces themselves are kind of ass.

    They have their own augment pool that can't roll random skills and have a higher chance of slots.

    I just did some hunts with the swaxe and I'm really digging how easy it is to move between morph states now. Can't wait to get to the later game to do all what you just did in that vid, it just looks stupid fun.

    Beat Scorned Magnamalo, farmed like 10 seared bagels to get a couple mantles, now have most every endgame viable dual blade and access to most A5* monster. Think I'm gonna call it until the next TU.

    The good thing is that the anomaly quests and the variant monsters let me get that last bit of MR farming in and were quite fun, and online anomaly investigations felt way less chunky and nerve wracking than solo, and the flexibility and boosts to weapon power were nice. The bad thing is that in spite of all the flexibility added, it still feels like 3 and especially 4 slot decos are a joke, which makes a whole lot of potentially viable gear unviable, and weapon upgrades are a tremendous chore for dualies and their (checks notes) 5 required and 3 more viable endgame setups.
