Man it's annoying when shit runs away. Just killed the poison spitting thing and good thing I happened to test out bow on that mission lmao made it so much easier.

Was going to stick with it but I might go hammer or Lance just for the charge I really hate running after stuff lol.

Also, fuck the random Trex that keeps interrupting my quests.

[Rhyis.]

i have not played or posted in this thread in a while but i am here for my dual blade brothers

Probably another dumb question. How do I check the materials I’ve gathered so far from an expedition? Like hides and stuff like that. Can’t seem to find it anywhere on the menu.

I'm not sure if there is an inventory screen for monster material. I could be wrong though.

Item box > Sell items > R2 (or whatever the button is for PC to move to the next list) > full list of all your ores/hides/gems/whatever

Keep shit on you at all times. Literally. Hitting a monster with a dung pod or 2 will make them run away.

Feel like such a scrub. Can’t do shit online cuz of everything is “your hunter rank is too low” lol.

So last night my wife was making me help her with thank you cards so I played on PC with mouse and keyboard without controller. Holy shit are the keybinds retarded lol.

So I tried out some simpler weapons and kept doing great jagras to see which I did best with, greatsword 10min dual blades 9 min and hammer fucking 4:50 lmao. I was afraid to try anything more complicated than those because of the keybinds, although I did try charge blade in the training area and I was doing saed much easier which doesn't even make sense.

This gonna be $25 on Black Friday in a lot of places if anyone still wants to pick it up.

[Boyiee]

Okay I'm gonna do hammer and bow, maybe db's mixed in.

What trees should I craft first for each? Just go bone with everything or kulu hammer?

[Krandor]

Really just use what you like as you go along, just making sure you're using up to date gear as you advance in ranks.

Hammer at the end game is really only down to the Nergigante and Diablos ones. Nergi is a late offshoot of the Iron Hammer, and the Diablos hammer comes from the Kulu one. So keeping those upgraded as you go saves you time farming later.

Bow and DB both have a lot of useful weapons because elemental damage is so good for them. Whatever tree you're working on chances are it will lead to something useable later on.

The general rule in monster Hunter games is that faster hitting weapons care way more about elemental damage, and thus have many useful weapons, whereas slow hitting weapons (GS, Hunting Horn, Hammer) really only care about raw damage and will probably only have a couple viable variants at end game if you're min maxing.

Exactly what I needed thanks bros

[Boyiee]

Welp I fucking sucked at barroth took 27min even with hammer maybe I will do bow.

[Boyiee]

Okay bow and db's are op as fuck bow did it in 19 and that was a lot of time hunting and chasing and db's we're 13min with most of my attacks bouncing off lol.

[Boyiee]

If I cut a tail off do I have to loot it right there or will it be a reward at end or will palico pick it up?

[Krandor]

Gotta carve the tail

[Rhyis.]

worst early mhw moments are when you cut off a tail then capture. you probably wont have time to carve dat tail in 20 seconds unless youre directly on top of it

Maybe you focused on the head since you were using hammer and it's on most monsters the weakest point. Barroth's weakest point is its tiny forearms. It's not that hard to reach because the hurtbox is generous, but if you don't aim for it, the hunt can get quite lengthy.

[Boyiee]

I did lol

I knew, hahaha. Next time try the upswing (second level charge) approaching from the side more or less. You'll get a nice hit on the arms. You can also just wail on the legs and do the circle combo on the arms when it's down. Either way, you'll do much better knowing its true weakspot.
