Kagrenac posted:Cats gather and steal a lot of materials over the course of a quest and have lots of useful moves to steal more stuff/heal or buff you/disrupt the monster. The main benefit a dog has other than getting around is letting you safely sharpen while riding it which doesn't apply to gunners. It never even crossed my mind to hop on the dog to sharpen in the middle of a fight. drat

boz posted:The two hit 2 bug one does crazy good damage, and it's super good for something I don't see everyone online doing. Oh cool, being extremely effective at making monsters mountable is a very good reason to use that move. That wasn't very clear from the in-game description of the move, but makes it more than worth using over the cocoon. So are monsters that aren't the target of the current hunt more easily mounted? Because I've used the ability several times without it working on the hunt target

Followup question: When I got to high rank, Utsushi mentioned some quests to learn additional switch moves, but I can't find those quests anywhere now. How do I get the new moves?

Talk to the annoying dude that calls you "Ace" in the hub. He gives you a series of quests at hub rank 4.

It really bugs me that the game highlights most of the NPCs with things to give you/request but not all of them. I wish there was just a minimap with clear icons for everything to do in the village and hub. It took me ages to even realise that the tiny desk by the dango cats was the canteen.

Binding "fast travel" to the select button made the whole villager quest thing a much better experience. Hit select, see if there is an icon next to the area name. Go to the area, and generally when you load in, whoever you need to talk to has a literal color coded speech bubble right next to you. Also, set detailed map in Quests to select as well so you can fast travel easier. I also will swear by the setting to push R3 or whatever to use an item on your radial shortcut. Lots of stuff that makes your life a lot easier that the game doesn't tell you. Theotus fucked around with this message at 11:38 on Mar 29, 2021 |

homeless snail posted:The secret of greatsword is, not doing the slow stuff most of the time. For one, you never want to move with your weapon drawn longer than the distance of a roll and a tackle or two, when you need to reposition you sheathe and move, which is easier than ever in this game with the ZR+A silkbind that's a big step while sheathing + a damage boost. Second, you never want to let the recovery animations play out, they're almost all either dodge and/or tackle cancellable. And third, you don't pull out the charge until you get an opportunity to hit it without being punished. Which means usually GS is all about hit and run using fast wides and overheads to work around their attacks until you see an opportunity to hit them with a charge open up, and then how good an opportunity it is dictating how much time you can use skipping or comboing charges (almost always skipping the basic rear end charge, sometimes skipping the strong charge to go straight to true, or just doing a strong if you're short on time, or a double or triple combo if you're wide open). Also remember you can always tackle out of a charge if it looks like its going to go bad, tackles have guard frames and it will often set you up for another safer charge to punish their attack. I see. Thank you for the write up! Unfortunately I unlocked blast charge and now only want to play gunlance more but I’ll keep this in mind for eventually

I can't imagine giving up the palamute just for being able to sharpen while I move to the next area. Maybe once I have all the camps and great wirebug points unlocked I'll try running palico instead.

I've been having a blast so far, but gently caress Hamon the passive-aggressive blacksmith. I've taken to using the Hub smithy just so I don't have to hear him go, "some hunters are here for hours, so I'm used to waiting" every 15 seconds. He is literally the only thing I don't like about this game.

I miss the food porn, feel like hunters would definitely eat much heartier meals than a couple dango sticks. I also miss the forges being busy with people/felynes smacking things with hammers. Both of the forge options in Rise are so quiet! Also, is the in-mission item box gone? Once in a while I forget to re-up my item set and don't have as many potions as I'd like.

It’s also where you can grab a meal if you didn’t eat before the hunt. Did a couple of rampages this morning. You get so many tickets from them you can start pumping out charms non-stop once you get to the final hub tier. Happy Noodle Boy fucked around with this message at 12:56 on Mar 29, 2021 |

In World I feel like every single filler quest unlocked something, a canteen ingredient or other village upgrade. That doesn't seem to be the case here although I'm still on 2 stars, does that change? Not a huge deal but I do enjoy the satisfaction of Unlocking.

I'm sure food porn will make a return, but I like the wacky different implementations. Portable 3rd will always be special for having a bath (which worked like dango) instead of food.

Requests and deliveries and really few and far between. And I miss getting an automatic Arena quest every time you captured a new monster. It felt like part of the fun of trying to capture it first time.

I hope the first or second update adds a bunch of variants and subspecies. It seems so barebones right now that they would need to add quite a bit to make it have anywhere near the content of launch world or cross.

As someone who primarily has experience with world I love the variety of monsters in this. A bear? An Armadillo? An umbrella? A monkey that throws fruit? loving awesome. World was cool but it definitely suffered from having two or three basic skeletons with a bunch of different poo poo tied to them.

I wouldn’t mind if they padded the numbers a bit with some different colored variants. I liked my pink rath GL from world. But, I agree having the completely different types is really fun. I’m hoping we see Malfestio in one of the later updates.

Yeah I can’t fault the number of monsters in the base game at all. Perfectly fine number, the main thing I want from updates is a few more avenues for getting the rare drops from hunting and hopefully the layered armour system cause I am regretting picking a lady right now with how much armour looks dumb as hell on her.

Non primary target mons seem to be way way easier to mount ... and this makes for a very easy means of getting free shinies from your target and staggering it

I’ve joined a few hunts where someone goes out of their way to mount the other 2 monsters then bring them over to the fight and yeah it makes the shinies rain. It’s pretty fun seeing the hunter on the map just loving off, messing with a monster on the other side of the map, then that monsters starts ZOOMING our way.

I think it's important to note that the last few "from-scratch" monster hunters, including world, had their Complete versions ship a few more months or a year after the base game. In Monster Hunter 4, the base game didn't even ship outside of Japan, what we got was the final release. I would suspect/hope that Rise's final edition is DLC like Iceborne, rather than a whole second release.

I thought you could only ride monsters a short distance from where you mounted them - at least in my case the dumb bastard always trips within seconds. People are running them across the map?
