Now there are no more Kelbi around and nothing wants to respawn? in addition to what people said above, it's worth noting you don't have to complete every quest to progress through the story/Hunter ranks. generally, with only a few exceptions, the "hunt a large monster" quests are the only ones that are necessary and there's not much point in doing the "get 4 Kelbi horns" or "gather 6 mushrooms" quests unless you're really really hurting for money, or just want to relax and chill out. It's kind of dumb that the game doesn't really let you know this, but if you google for "MH4U Key Quests" you can easily find a list of the quests that are mandatory to advance through the game. For what it's worth though, it's totally worth it to knock out the occasional Kelbi, their horns are used to craft some really killer potions that are always nice to have around in a tough fight!

Just finished the plot (at least insofar as the credits just rolled). Man, that last fight vs Kushala Daora was such an incredible anticlimax. I mean, the associated cutscenes with the Ace Hunters were cool and all, but the actual fight was piss easy. I got a little scared when I started it and found a supply box with 12 First Aid Med+ and 2 EZ Max Potions, but I didn't even have to heal, period. It was basically a glorified tutorial for online Kushala and Gogmazios.

HR Tigrex flailed his back against a zone transition while I was riding him, causing me to leave the zone. Tigrex bucked me off a rodeo by zoning me.

Other monsters can do it but Tigrex is the only one who moves that freaking much, at least as far as I've seen. Other monsters generally need to be near the exit, but Tigrex will flail his dumb rear end across the entire area to zone you sometimes.

So I have a set with Honed Blade and Razor Sharp for charge blade use, but now I have no idea which attack skills are the best to work towards from here. It seems like Artillery God, Challenger, and Critical Eye would all be of benefit, but I don't have the faintest idea how much each would help. Anyone have opinions/math on which one is best?

Now there are no more Kelbi around and nothing wants to respawn? Have either your Ace or yourself use an impact weapon, and the drop rate increases dramatically. Kelbi will also respawn, they just run in from zone entrances most of the time.

Elysiume posted:Just wander around, eventually things will respawn. The "kill X [small monster]" quests are awful because spawn rates are way too low so you end up wandering in circles for fifteen minutes waiting for [small monster] to respawn. Plus fighting small monsters is lame. The mini Kut Ku fight begs to differ.

When he frenzies he really, really, acts like he's going insane, it's awesome -- it's nuts how much personality they managed to instill into an enemy through basically a few sentences worth of text, a 10 second cutscene, and a boss fight. There are video games out there with hours of cutscenes and exposition whose antagonists don't have half the depth that a raging Tigrex does.

Had a pretty sick run today with another guy on dual Rathian and Rathalos. They always stuck to the same area but we kept staggering them enough that it was basically two 1v1 fights going on the entire fight. Highlight was me staff jumping to catch a fleeing Rathian, downing it, clipping the Rathalos in the same attack and downing it too, mounting the Rathalos, the other guy killing the Rathian while I was rodeoing, then killing the Rathalos less then ten seconds after the Rathian died. Pretty much the pinnacle of coordination.

So it sounds like the first couple quests besides the key quests are not, you know, intuitive or simple like the first few quests in any other game.

He doesn't mention Crit Eye at all so I guess that's off the list, but it seems like Artillery God vs Challenger would depend on how often you're using phial bursts vs how aggressive you can be when a monster is enraged. Hypothetically, if you got super defensive against things in rage mode and didn't get many hits in because the big scary monster is yelling a lot, then Challenger wouldn't be of much good to you. I guess I can just try each and see if I can feel a difference.

Adhesion posted:As always gaijin hunter is on point: http://gaijinhunter.tumblr.com/post/103946720952/mh4g-charge-blade-and-skills I don't agree with his assessment of some of the skills. Not having Guard+2 means you'll still get blown back when GPing certain attacks, and Artillery Master seems to show up on a bunch of Japanese CB superplays. GaijinHunter seems to poo-poo on Impact CBs too when I've found them to be much more useful than elemental ones IMO

Khezu is the worst. I don't mean worst as in hard. I mean it is a bad and boring monster and fight. Once you get past the creepy design, you are left with a big, lumbering Can't speak on the red version or any others, but that cowardly cat mission with the two frenzied Khezu was just as dull as anything else.

Them kicking things off more earlier worked a bit better this time, since Dah'ren's a big impressive fight that they can't really screw up by failing to dodge or hit it so it's a bit more immediately engaging than "okay hunter, go do errands for me" from the start, but it's still not great at the beginning.

Maybe it's because I spent a few days getting my poo poo pushed in by Silver Rathalos, but Akantor seems like a pretty easy (albeit long) fight. It's just too bad the 3 groups I tried him with tonight couldn't manage to not die 3 times.

The Pony Incident posted:Holy poo poo, I thought I was decent at this game but Gore Magala is just... wrecking me I got wrecked for my first 2 lives and was about to give up hope but I just spammed mounting attacks with greatsword. The first area blows to fight him since you have no room but you can climb those walls and just keep jumping down and he doesn't know what to do. Its really his enrage that is brutal.

I feel like the fight shouldn't actually be that hard since most of it's moves are fairly slow and telegraphed, but inevitably I keep making a few mistakes in a row and now I've failed it like 4 times, so I decided I'm just going to farm armor sphere+'s until my gear's all upgraded then give it another shot.

Save your mounts/traps for his enrage and you can bust him out of it by breaking his face in. Also stay under his dragon ballsack the whole time, all his stuff is dangerous out in front of him, not under him.

I've been using Uragaan, but you have to trade Gravios parts to get it. I'm working on Genesis next because it has Loading, Partbreaker, and Divine Protection. It also has a shitload of slots. The Dahren Mohran HBG is ridiculously good and is pretty easy to craft. Horace Kinch fucked around with this message at 09:31 on Mar 9, 2015 |

Granted, I'm not that far into the game but still, it's annoying. I think this is probably inevitable for most weapons at certain points in the game. As soon as I switched to Switch Axe, I just stopped getting new craftable ones. It's worth checking out kiranico's weapon database though, to see if maybe there's some earlier glaive you can make and upgrade once or twice (or more) to make into something awesome. That's what I ended up doing, and wouldn't have known what to make/upgrade otherwise.

Khezu was always kind of a basic monster, and even with the revamp to its animation set, it's still really showing its age.

Man, the community in this game pisses me off so much. Sure there are the countless things that newbies, randoms, and generally selfish players do like posting urgents or quests they need help on in other people's rooms, but the end game crew makes even more infuriating mistakes. - Posting/requesting/joining Apex level monsters with one or even zero wystones - Taking exmax potions from the box at the start of a hunt instead of leaving them for dead. Granted, you should have max potions with you at all times - STILL not carrying traps - Not having any idea what the hell they are hunting. I kept posting G-rank gold rajang earlier, which is a rare quest that almost no one has, and people just kept trying to post their apex and normal G rajangs - Not eating Moxie or Felyne def hi - Lying about GC levels when making lobbies because they don't know the 'expert' hunter type blocks out players below bronze crown

Think people forget that Gigginox also spent a bunch of time hanging on the walls and ceiling, he's different but he's seriously not much better. 'rear end in a top hat who hangs out of range of 80% of your arsenal' just isn't a good monster design.
