My son setup the Wii for unknown reasons and I've been playing Tri as a palette cleanser.
Its really rough. Too many QoL downgrades to list! Combo books! Annoying small monsters! Cha Cha! Torches! I forgot how bad some of these were!
But then there's easily craftable decorations you can slot into armor starting early on in Low rank! Why did this ever go away. In both world and rise its late into HR before you either get a decent deco to drop (world) or they allow you to craft something even partially worthwhile (rise).
Side note I'm probably one of the few folks who kinda liked the underwater stuff.
The deco thing feels like a side effect of changing the armor skill mechanic away from a 10-point threshold. You can craft decos in LR Tri but I don't know what it would accomplish.

Upgrading tiered skills, adding a good QoL skill, or both with a talisman. Even canceling a negative skill with a single + deco.
Its more that the system can be meaningfully interacted with very early on.
I just hit 70 tonight, coincidentally. Cleared him with no carts but it took every healing item I was carrying (no restocks) plus a couple of vigorwasps and whatever else my buddies and skills could regenerate.
I need to fight it again to upgrade my ice/blast duals*. Not looking forward to it.
There's a reason I just used lance on HR... giant attack zones don't matter to giant shields... but I don't have a lance setup together for MR to deal with it.
Edit: Got it on my next try, took 25m because the body is a terrible hitbox but where I end up after dodging its shit. Went pretty smoothly... the thing never tried the ambush though. Just a slog to beat it safely since the weak spots are kind of right in the danger zone (except the tail, but once that's cut off the tail stub is a small hitbox and you hit the body more often)
it's wild how much more i've been enjoying hammer since i jacked the raw damage up so much
definitely feels like a case where absolutely bonkers damage beats out comfort skills
right now my ingot greaves are rolled with an extra 2-slot and a point of hellfire cloak, I think i would give my left nut to replace that hellfire cloak with another skill that fits my build
opening up one more 2-slot, my gais hammer would pick up wirebug whisperer 3 without sacrificing an attack boost, and on the goss and anjanath hammers i could run AB6 + Master's Touch 3
my favorite thing is that as i roll more and more absolutely wild qurio armor rolls, i keep moving the goalposts in just a way that i end up one tier 2 slot away from perfection
i rolled peak performance off gold rath gloves and got the smaller slots upgraded to a tier 4 and 2 + flinch free, got coalescence to roll on the lunagaron helmet, attack boost on the shagaru chest
which gets me everything i want, and wirebug whisperer 3 and defiance 3 to boot
and attack boost 6
these motherfucker ingot pants are standing in the way if my dream
Made the full lucent armor last night. Maxed crit boost, WEX, and agitator lets me hit 100% crit on a few LSs. (the threshold is 35% - Shagaru, Barioth, and Inheritance hit that, albeit with lower RAW). Lots of fun stuff on this set...
Yeah, same in World, at this point it is only being included so people don't get up in arms because of it not being in game, even if they never use it either.
I have never cooked while on a mission in Rise. Motley Mix renders the bbq spit useless.
Radial menu also reduces/eliminates the need for things to appear in the item bar. I have whetstones on speed-dial; I don't need them getting in the way of my scrolling.
I actually have cooked a few times in Rise. Usually it's when I'm on an expedition, or the occasional time that a regular mission goes real long. I usually don't need to bring rations beyond the four from the supply box, so I don't.
i managed to roll charge master on my ingot legs and subsequently critical eye on a rathalos coil which puts me at exactly +1 tier 2 slot on my Gais hammer set
Oh its basically my sizzle reel with some neat little editing thrown in here and there.
Get the charge from MHW and the shield charge from Rise to line up in a 3/4's view was a thing, but it looks p cool. Also the windmill dance with my palico.
I am working on that, though. Been knocking out quests I haven't done yet slowly but surely and it feels like doing every non-anomaly quest once will be enough to get there.

Is Mizut still your buggaboo?

And somehow me and my son have never had a hunt with Galleus (GS) where he didn't die embarrassingly fast at first.
I usually take the twins and give them horns.

wait, but why would you want that?
not being able to cook on the battlefield? madness.

Motley Mix does not help you dodge Narwa’s ultimate.
Yeah and your chores are doing the same quest 4 times because people in different towns asked you.
Also there are five "towns" but you don't unlock the 5th until much later.

is it just the end of gurren lagann
also discord and capcom are doing a thing starting next week, if you stream your game in discord for 30 minutes, you'll get a code for layered armor.
But it doesn't count if you stream the Switch version.

I forget how enjoyable having a creative outlet is. Let me know how it came out
120?! I still haven't hit 100!
