3 counts is way easier since you don't rely on visual since it's just timing

FWIW DS don't get much out of Razor (DS sharpness already declines half as quickly), and a flexible s+1 & speed sharpen set is way easier to build

Thought gaijin hunter listed that DB lost their inherent razor sharp in 4U they used to have

quote:

Changes from MH3U
Here are the changes in bullet point form:
(bad) Slightly slower speed (it’s still fast though)
(bad) Sharpness no longer gets razor sharp naturally (yet the sharpness gauges aren’t longer than last game)
(bad) Less combo paths to exit Demon Mode to save your stamina
(bad) Slightly tighter timing on hit detection
(good) gauge goes down slower
(good) no more -30% modifier on elemental power
It looks bad, I know. Especially the sharpness, ti’s the same as saying ‘it goes down 2x as fast as last game”. But the elemental modifier being lifted is big and you can always skill in razor sharp.

I'm picked up a 3ds for this and it's amazing. The lack of water levels is great. My only complaint is the N3DSXL is so small, it cramps my hands. 3U on the Wii U felt nice with the game pad.

You didn't grab an XL? You poor fool! That bigger screen-size makes a world of difference. The other day I found my DS lite and it was like holding a game console made for tiny ant people.

Doesn't the insect glaive outperform dual swords in terms of damage, mobility, and utility as well? From the outside looking in, that sorta makes dual blades seem a little gimped in comparison.

negative, you can only get them in the rewards box or from cats/the veggie elder. potions are better because they persist from mission to mission anyway

So the circle-pad pro attachment for the old XL won't work on the new XL? That's lame as hell and probably means I'm not gonna pick up a new XL till it's on sale or something. :v:

It has a second stick (well, nub, but works great for Monster Hunter camera control) and the extra shoulder buttons built in to it already.........

They're tiny and I don't really like them :shrug:

I was messing around with a new 3ds XL earlier today and I still missed my CPP. But I'm probably gonna end up upgrading at some point for that faster/better processing power and the 3d stuff.

Why wouldn't you fight him offline? You can beat him with any weapon and as long as you have an armor set you're good if you're upgrading it with armor stones.

Both valid points.

Monoblos wasn't so bad in FU, so I am hoping that all the complaints about it are simply inexperience. If the 4U version of monoblos (and diablos too, I guess) are actually as bad as people are letting on I might be in some trouble.

Sizup posted:

Herbs, potions, mega potions, ancient potions, lifepowder, and some other assorted stuff. Sushifish restore a little bit of health, for instance, but are never classified or spoken of as actual healing items that I know of.

Monoblos is offline only.

Max potions are really handy but I feel that ancient potions are a waste of a pouch slot for a single use.

Chew on that... you overgrown son of a bitch.

Guys, I discovered one neat trick for climbing cliffs. Monsters hate me!

Seriously though, if your weapon is unsheathed, and you need to climb a cliff right this second, dodge roll your face into the cliff side and start mashing the A button. You'll grab the climbable wall, and your weapon will magically find its way onto your back.

Don't forget Mosswine Jerky from the Guildhall Store. It refills your red life bar, increases regen rate temporarily, and once you start fighting Seregios it's a fast way to cure bleeding.
