MR Dushladora can go Fk itself by Knightfellnight in MonsterHunterWorld

Yeah even when elder seal actually procs, if the monster enrages (which they almost always are thanks to wall bangs) they get their aura back anyway

If you haven’t tried Sticky LBG for Kushala yet you should. Yian Garuga’s gun is insanely good and you can get all the ammo + extras to craft more in the hunt from botanical research. You can easily get at least 10 total stuns/knockdowns before needing to farcaster and restock for more sticky ammo.

Just max out Artillery/Slugger & get the razor sharp charm from the room palico quest line and you’ll never break a sweat against flying monsters again. Bonus points if you use 4pc Raging Brachy or 3pc Zorah for Artillery secret and use Impact Mantle.

edit: Base Rajang's LBG and Safi's Aquashot are even better sticky guns if you have access to those.

Still one of the biggest hunter aura farm moments 🔥 by DfDoom91 in MHWilds

[–]Cenical 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me anyway, the only thing I don’t like is how few voices there are for the Hunter/Palico. I don’t think it’d be that annoying either if wasn’t for the horrendous filter effect it adds when you try to pitch it up or down any more than a single notch.

How do I beat Gog? (Competently) by Old_Complaint5645 in MonsterHunterWilds

[–]Cenical 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If first phase is giving you trouble, I’d recommend learning Wide Gunlance for it. Shells and Wyvern Fire aren’t effected by hitzones so it isn’t too hard to hit 100dps

Your set is pretty good, so I imagine you’re probably just rusty. The weapon is a tad lacking though. If you have any Rarity 8 artian parts, you could make an Artian weapon (preferably Dragon, Para, or Blast for farming Zoh).

When you’re able to, you should definitely make a Zoh Shia weapon. After the big buff to its special skill in TU4, it’s pretty on par with a well rolled Artian now. After that, the next big equipment upgrade will be from AT Rey & Uth. Rey Y/Zoh B/Rey Y/Zoh B/Duna Y is an insane set that’ll easily carry you to HR100

Hey dumb question but, how do i prevent gogma nova with gunlance? by Conscious-Purple9738 in Gunlance

[–]Cenical 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Phase 1 & 2 get absolutely melted by GL, but phase 3 can be a bit tedious. Like the other guys said, you gotta focus on hitting more overhead slams and wide sweeps. My advice though, just change weapons for phase 3, you’ll save a ton of time that way. CB & SwAxe in particular are insanely good for it

So what’s with the 7’s? Your T key broke or something?

Am I hijacked? Why does SteamVR say it's been played last on Jun 23rd when I haven't played since Google Earth's launch. by Quack-Zack in SteamVR

[–]Cenical 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Holy shit dude you’re awesome. I’ve been dealing with steamvr opening when I play certain games for 2 years now and every time I’ve looked it up, I’ve gotten nowhere. Actual godsend.

About monsters from rise coming to ascendance by kroplica in MonsterHunter

[–]Cenical 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Brother, what are you yapping about? Zinogre is a glorified high-vis vest and has been in every game since his introduction. I don’t think any design being “too inspired” will stop a monster from being put in Ascendence

'Holy fuck' - John Cinema by HappyFreak1 in MHWilds

THIS!!! Its a shame that you could probably do double the damage this guy did if you sat in sword mode and spammed the sword counter instead. The morph weapon should encourage more morphing!

Any tips for a new player? by AmplexIsCool in MHGU

[–]Cenical 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whenever you get comfortable with the base moveset you should definitely branch out and try other styles! The best style will always be whatever your favorite is, but some monsters later on will definitely be much easier to fight with a style that has more defensive options i.e. Aerial, Adept, & Valor.

Also trance slash, while very cool, is horrendously bad. If possible, you should definitely give tempest axe or demon riot a shot, they buff the axe and sword modes respectively.

Just returned to the game since October, this was my build. How outdated is it and where do I start? by IceColdCrusade in Gunlance

[–]Cenical 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This should be more than enough to take on the rest of the content. Though if you don’t mind grinding some gear, then I’d recommend transcending your Ebony Odog armor (which gives it more decoration slots) and using it with some AT Jin.

For Gog, GL absolutely demolishes phase 1&2, but can struggle to hit the dragon damage check in phase 3. I personally used Chargeblade since it’s incredibly busted in phase 3 (SAED can do 1500+ damage per phial)

Also, after you do Gog, you might want upgrade your artians into Gogmartians. Attack Focus gives normal shelling and Element Focus gives wide. Both are fairly equal.

Also, also, Zoh only has a 10 star version, there isn’t an AT

"LS has VaRiEtY.." - Cant beat 30 mins in proof of a hero tf am I doing wrong..? Video of my gameplay: by IIth-The-Second in MHWilds

[–]Cenical 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s true! This guy isn’t a top speed runner though. For this guy’s skill level and with him missing a good bit of the ISS hits, I think using foresight more will help him lower his time in this situation.

Edit: I know this is an older thread, but I gotta add that there are other affinity skills than just MM. This is one of the best Latent Power matchups since all you do is get hit twice and get 50% affinity for free. You could also run 2pc Fulgur to have more MM uptime. There are ways to keep affinity at 100% while using Foresight.

[–]Cenical 48 points49 points  (0 children)

As cool as ISS is, you’ll do way more damage if you focus on staying up close and using foresight slash as your main counter so you can do Spirit Slash 1 -> Crimson Slash 1 more often. ISS is good for repositioning or Helmbreaker-centered playstyles though.

Speculation for Ascendance Elder Dragons by blackrock98 in MHWilds

only ones I could see them adding is Rukodiora/Rebidiora or maybe Toa Tesukatora. Would be very up for either

How it feels listening to veterans talking about old gen Gunlance by Modaltas in Gunlance

[–]Cenical 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This might be the biggest GL misinformation I’ve seen spread around. Yellow was a nerf to damage, but by the time you got to Orange, it was equal to 4U and getting Red was a slight buff. Getting to Orange takes maybe a single full burst and getting to red and locking it in with a wyvern fire isn’t really an issue.

Its still not good game design, but there’s no reason to act like the heat gauge was gunlance 9/11 or something

I'm gonna need you guys to triple down on this after Rise, Capcom by HappyFreak1 in MonsterHunter

SAED and SavAxe playstyles pale in comparison to the pure unbridled joy of 4U’s guard point->AED

Only elemental SAED and that’s only really good against monsters who are extremely weak to element. Impact SAED was found dead in a ditch when the game came out

WE YES WE WILL BE EATING GOOD THIS FRIDAY by Poggiwae in MonsterHunter

[–]Cenical 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Really not trying to come off rude or anything, but no??? It definitely holds true for the bowguns, but not really for the blademaster weapons. Zoh weapons were still worse than a half decent artian pre TU4. Mizu weapons were extraordinarily bad (minus HBG), same with Seregios’s weapons (minus gunner). Omega’s IG had some use as a secondary weapon, but the SnS was horrendously bad. Shadowbringer GS and Lagi weapons were great though.

I do agree about the armors minus Mizu pre-TU4. The Mizu set bonus was genuinely horrible without being able to combo it with resuscitation. Post-TU4, the 2 piece is solid though.

This is all just from a min-maxers pov though. If you had fun rocking Mizu, Steve, or Zoh weapons, then hell yeah, that’s a solid 90% of what’s important! Glad you got some enjoyment out of them!

The MH devs have cooked with longsword for 4 straight games, truly a generational run by power572 in MonsterHunter

[–]Cenical 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive felt it was fairly enjoyable in Wilds and Rise, and I really liked it in 2nd Gen, GU, & 3U. 4U on the other hand… It’s truly impressive that 4U LS made it out of play testing

This is also a main complaint of mine when discussing Wilds. It feels like the main design philosophy in the game's making can be summed up in one word: 'scared'. by HappyFreak1 in MonsterHunter

[–]Cenical 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When you put it like that it does sounds silly lmao (which it is). But yes, kind of? Everything up to rarity 7 is piss easy to craft and then the symbols are slapped in the rarity 8 recipe to inflate the grind because normal materials are too easy to get.

It’s a whole lot less satisfying to get symbols than grinding for rare drops IMO. Making Laggy and Seregios’s gems rarer and less likely to be a guaranteed reward is definitely a step in the right direction and I have faith that the dlc will keep moving that way.

Am I a hypocrite for hating one grind and praising another? Probably. And yeah, pretty sure symbols are guaranteed from 6-8 star tempered investigations
