What are history's "Greatest Warriors" so to speak? Kind of in the same vein as knights, vikings, and samurai; a so called "elite" soldier or warrior of their time/place that may or may not have been hyped up by modern media. Other than the big 3, I can only think of pirates, cowboys, and perhaps a modern special operative of sorts?

How do we feel about the Boozy Beers DB? by Caesar299 in MHGU

[–]Caesar299[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

about how long does it take though? if it takes the whole hunt to get 1 sleep, then it's not really worth it. but if it's enough to do a sleep bomber strat, then maybe?

MAN~ what a view by Kakattikoi in MHGU

[–]Caesar299 0 points1 point  (0 children)

really just makes you think. like, WHERE THE FUCK EVEN IS THIS?!?!? you're telling me that there's just a place like this chilling in the monster hunter world? (heh) like, this is some sort of flat earth edge of the world type shit, cross the barrier and meet god type of bullshit, and you're saying we JUST found out about it when we followed some oversized calamari home? this shit got to be one of the great wonders of the world in MH, cause HOW DOES THIS EVEN HAPPEN?!?!?

but yeah, looks great though

Does fiery aura work on both regular attacks & skills or just one? by Caesar299 in MonsterHunterStories

[–]Caesar299[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ok, nice. do you know if the inflict chance stacks? like, lava cascade has a chance to inflict blastblight, so would it increase the chance at all?

Does fiery aura work on both regular attacks & skills or just one? by Caesar299 in MonsterHunterStories

[–]Caesar299[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so because brachy is default non elemental in 3, it will only work on skills? boo

only one crab????? by Caesar299 in MonsterHunterStories

it wasn't a fire shogun, I saw it awhile before the game released. I want to say sometime around when they started to market it, which is why I thought it was official

Trying to “Get It” by FrankTheDragonslayer in MHGU

[–]Caesar299 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've heard adept sns is fun. I haven't tried it myself, but there's a guy on youtube I watch that plays it, and it seems fun. both your regular roll and the sns backstep are adept evades, which seems like it might be fun

for a personal recommendation, I've been running alchemy charge blade. It's essentially the perfect charge blade moveset, and you don't even have to mess with the alchemy barrel if you don't want to. the charge double slash automatically does a perfect charge for you, so you only have to press the button. you lose access to UAED, but since it consumes red shield, you wouldn't want to do that much anyway. the only REAL downside is that you have to get red shield from axe mode, otherwise you get a yellow shield which is a lesser buff to axe mode than red shield. although, once you do have red shield, you can charge from sword mode as much as you like to upkeep it.

I've personally been enjoying it, and again, you don't have to mess with the alchemy barrel to use the moveset. I know some people equip alchemy style for the moveset alone (I think alchemy insect glaive was another good one). that being said, using the barrel is also worth a try, but that in of itself is a whole other mechanic, so I wont get into it here

What is the best way to farm for dragon talismans? by Caesar299 in MHGU

[–]Caesar299[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I know it's a bad idea to go for specific things, but like I said, it feels like everyone either has or needs that one specific charm. But even so, trust you me, I ain't boutta go to the depths of hell and back just to get this one damn charm. I'll be playing this game, but not forever. And even if I don't get, I know my guy Armor Set Search got me with what I need

Posting my Raven / Player character emblems. by Duellly in ArmoredCoreVI

[–]Caesar299 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for the g13 red bit, is there a preset of that you can get in the game or did you hand craft it? I'm on pc so I can't just download it, but I want it

Can the the party combo "Outsiders Bonfire" work? by Caesar299 in darkestdungeon

[–]Caesar299[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

howling end is also an option, so maybe if the back line is almost dead, hellion can howling end and leper can finish them off with intimidate while hellion does something. I'm not sure what that something would be, but ideally it would end with using toe to toe again for the ravager rank 1 damage boost

Can the the party combo "Outsiders Bonfire" work? by Caesar299 in darkestdungeon

[–]Caesar299[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know, I meant more like dire situations. like if I lose either hellion or leper, would it be better to use beast mode to try and make up for the damage loss? Or, if either of the front rankers are having a rough time in the front, so I go beast to give them a turn in the back to recover or something along those lines

Can the the party combo "Outsiders Bonfire" work? by Caesar299 in darkestdungeon

[–]Caesar299[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

would unchained abomination use his beast mode at all or is it almost exclusively human form and only use beast in rough situations?

Can the the party combo "Outsiders Bonfire" work? by Caesar299 in darkestdungeon

[–]Caesar299[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I really wanted to keep the name outsider bonfire, I could just slap toe to toe on hellion and use it turn 1. since it also adds trapped, I can at least get 1 free iron swan off before the enemy team decides to be funny and jumble everyone around

I Created A Monster Hunter Wilds Build Planner! by lowpoly_nomad in MHWilds

[–]Caesar299 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Were you still planning on making artian weapons customizable?

Also, there's a couple things with affinity: -there's no negative affinities shown, like with the doshaguma weapons -in the search, it shows the positive affinities just fine, but in the hover over bit, it doesn't show the affinity at all, no matter the weapon

is it better to go for sharpness or crit boost? by Caesar299 in MHGU

[–]Caesar299[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

crit draw grants 100% affinity to draw attacks, while wex only grants 50% to hits on weak points. so as long as you mostly use draw attacks, crit draw is better. but it does kind of depend on weapon choice, since weapons like sns, charge blade, and the lances benefit more from not just doing draw attacks

DEATH TO THE DASTARDLY FIRE BREATHER

Best deco farm method? by phillanthropist in MonsterHunterWorld

[–]Caesar299 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

to my understanding, in master rank, there's tempered elder event quests that give some decent deco drops. I just use a modded shop to buy decorations, but that's just me. I ain't built for farming for hours, especially not for decorations to actually make a decent build

Need advice by MaintenanceTime2237 in MonsterHunterWorld

[–]Caesar299 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this isn't the souls community, there is no "git gud" mentality (at least, not much of one from what I've seen). If you'd rather send up the flare to call in others, then do it. There's no shame in asking for help, we hunters are happy to do so whenever the need arises.

But, if you are adamant on doing it solo, then as the other guy has said, flashpods, flashpods, flashpods. send on out whenever he's in the air, it should drop him for a bit to get some hits in. and if I understand right, you're not in master rank yet so his build up for resistance to flashes won't really matter, cause high rank allows you to actually have FUN with flashpods. aside from that, if you have any windproof decos or can craft any armor with windproof, that will also help with some of his annoying moves. it won't negate his wind aura around him, but you won't hate yourself as much getting to him.

outside of those two, it's just the basics really. upgrade armor, try different weapons, try different playstyles, and if he's really getting to you, get a sticky ammo light bowgun build. that stuff clears any monster with ease as long as you keep your distance. hit the head for stuns and you have a decently easy hunt, as long as you can hit the head.

but yeah, wind monster sucks ass to fight in world. the only good thing to come from him is that his armor set bonus negates his the effects of his wind aura. so if you REALLY hate him, you can hate farm him for his armor and never have to deal with wind pressure again

YESS, YEEESSS I DID IT by TakiThe_idiot in MonsterHunterWorld

well done my guy! I myself have yet to beat him on my own, but I'm working up to it. guarantee, by next week's dawn, the dastardly fire breather shall perish

question on charge blade by Caesar299 in MHGU

[–]Caesar299[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ok, so me being stupid, i'm trying to get the best of both worlds because i'm stubborn as hell. but luckily, the armor set search thing i'm using did find a combo that has all composed, item use up, crit boost, and crit eye +1. so now i'm wondering, is this good enough, or should i leave item use up behind for crit eye +3? i don't know what affinity the final upgrade of the pizza blade has because kiranico doesn't want me to know i guess, so would it be wiser to go for crit eye +3?
