Ciaphas posted:While I'm at it, is there any reason to use any attacks other than standing XXX or standing charged smash? Sure is! The side slam attack with A does reasonable KO damage and can combo into the second two hits of the XXX combo afterwards. Does slightly less damage but dizzies a monster faster. The no-charge R attack can be comboed after for a second hit and can go into the triple pound for 5 hits total. The half-charge dash attack combos into the side slam by hitting X, then goes into the normal combo. It also does a ludicrous amount of KO damage and the dash is a great way to get in and get a couple of hits off, then either keep comboing if it seems like you can get away with it or bail if you can't.

Evil Mastermind posted:Got my full set of Wroggi armor; I don't think I can put off fighting Qurupeco much longer. That's the "Dirty Baron." You can actually buy it after unlocking enough things in the game. If you want to upgrade into it, the path is: Hunter's Knife->Soldier's Dagger->Commander's Dagger->Hypnos Knife->Hypnos Knife+->Dirty Baron Interestingly enough, it appears to lose the poison ability at the top level. However, it's still there if you awaken/free element. You end up having 550 poison, which means you're hitting with poison more than every other hit, at 55 status a pop. If you fight anything weak to poison (most brute wyverns) it'll be super effective.

Social Dissonance posted:That's the "Dirty Baron." You can actually buy it after unlocking enough things in the game. If you want to upgrade into it, the path is: how does poison work in that regard? Do you do extra elemental damage as poison or is the 550 poison only working towards giving them the poisoned status? Just how strong is poisoning monsters that are weak to it?

Just how strong is poisoning monsters that are weak to it? Higher status damage just applies the status faster. Poison does damage based on the target afaik, not the amount of poison on the weapon. Poison is great against monsters that are weak against it, especially if you have a lot of long disconnects during the fight because it will keep doing damage even if you can't get to them (if only Rath wasn't resistant, dang world tour).

what day do they release new dlc? Are these brand new or were they in tri as well? This is my first monster hunter so its all new to me. I really enjoyed the last 2 Is there a skill that prevents me from flinching when a rathalos lands near me? I finally beat him in sp with lance, but i was having some trouble getting close. He would always dash at cha-cha so I left them at home and the fight was suddenly easy. Fauxtool fucked around with this message at 08:45 on Apr 1, 2013 |

I think the skill you need is Wind-Res, which you can get on the Alloy Armour. You may need 15 points for his landing, the armour only gives 10.

Hello chums, I have a quick out-of-the-blue question. I just started working at a game translation company, and at lunchtime a couple of the guys play Monster Hunter 3 together on 3ds. I've never played any of the series. If I was to get a copy, would I be able to jump in and join them? I think they're pretty high level. I don't really want to have to spend 500 hours catching up to them. Is it do-able?

If these guys are cool, they will help you through content you're having trouble with, help you rank up, and speed up the farming process to help you get better weapons and armor. I've personally dragged three people through Low Rank on Unite because I was happy to get more folks up to speed on the series. That said, there's a ton of single-player stuff you can do on your own spare time. There's really no rush for you to "catch up" unless they are being jerks.

So uh, looks like the Kelbi Bow is as insane as expected. I was using it while doing Hallowed Jhen with some other foolhardy goons and on our first attempt (without getting the dragonator on the first phase) we killed him so fast his head fell behind the invisible wall and we lost half of our carves. Let this be a lesson - with great slime comes great responsibility.

It was Nintendo's PR, actually. It's a shame (and a bit annoying), since my colleague got a download code for Luigi's Mansion from the same PR. I was a bit salty about that. And oh well; It's maybe ~13 hours of play, I can recover that.

Fauxtool posted:Is there something in the farm I can make spider webs with? Nope! I believe the peddler in the port sells them occasionally, though. Use Shock Traps when possible since they're way easier to make. I think the only trappable enemy they don't work on is a charged up Zinogre. Pitfalls don't work on some but I don't remember who. Nibelsnarf and Diablos maybe. Pitfalls also don't work underwater. Pitfalls will hold enemies longer and also expose monster's heads nicely for you to beat on, but as far as capturing monsters go either works fine. Ignimbrite posted:You cannot cut tails with a hammer. Anyone who tells you this is either trying to waist your time or has been farming for brachydios gems too long. (there is one exception, you can take off a monster called Duramboros's tail with a hammer but it's more like breaking a hunk of it off opposed to physically cutting the end of the tail off like every other monster) Doesn't Royal Ludroth appear before Baroth? His tail is also way easier to cut.

Nibblesnarf is apparently immune to pitfalls, but Diablos is not. On the other hand, Diablos breaks free really quick when enraged, and since it's tell for capture is to basically enrage from a passing breeze...

I know there were plenty of weapons for the DLC missions; but was their any armor? I'm hoping for a G-rank Yukumo set to come out. Also I've been unable to get a team together for the HR DLC; what's the reward for it?

You bastard!  All joking aside, Hallowed Jhen is insanely fun, even moreso than normal jhen. Having a crazy madman in Van Helsing gear wielding a slingshot does reduce him into a sniveling wreck though. That crazy kelbi bow.

I started playing MH3U this weekend. I was reluctant to pick it up at all largely because I remember quitting MHFU on the PSP four or five years ago in disgust and hatred. I vaguely remember getting stunlocked to death in a corner I couldn't get out of because I had gotten hit out of a dodge roll I was doing to specifically avoid getting trapped by, and the hit actually not only reversed the direction I was going in a physics-defying change of momentum, it also caused me to pass THROUGH the monster, into a corner. I get a bit mad remembering it after all this time. Despite that, I got mh3u. Mostly because this seemed to be the one exclusive that the Wii U has really going for it. A big reason I got past the aversions I had is because the U has proper, built in network functionality, so the next time I have to face a giant pink cockmaster kut-ku horribly undergeared as is the way it goes, I expect I won't have to do it alone. I'm about 90 minutes in, at this point. I've greatsworded goats, dinosaurs, bugs, and velociraptors colored like they had their DNA tinkered with by a ricer detailing garage. I'm rediscovering old stuff I knew and new stuff I didn't. Overall it's like getting on a bike again... only the bike has 45 gears, three independent handlebars, eight pedals and a siamese cat tied in the spokes that screams when you go downhill.

I'm actually fairly certain no monster is immune to any traps in this version, as I've yet to see one fail even in cases where I assumed they would. Burrowing monsters can still destroy traps, though (shock traps at least).

I beat Ceadeus, took me four tries on the chase scene just to get to the actual fight. Beat him on the first try, but I nearly timed out. Felt like a boss. Now High Rank is making me feel like a little bitch. I was wondering when Monster Hunter was really gonna start. Almost when you least expect it to. I need to expand my HH collection a little more. Missing some element's, when damage values are really starting to matter.

I kept trying to get the Helios Z armor but had no idea that the female version was a different name. I fought Goldbeard Ceadeus a dozen times wondering why the hell it didn't unlock. However by the time I found this out I had all the parts ready to make the full set of armor. Also what's the second quest to fully upgrade your drinks? I got the first one from beating five star Jhen, but is the second one linked to village progress as well?
