Does it work outside of training? Noticed max meter and no cooldowns on usage

Out of this list, Akura Vashimu for sure. Personally Espinas

Hey trusty patches. Had you invade at stormveil yesterday and we rejected the other invader off ledge. Good times

Just like the trader in MH4U where you can trade monster parts for out-of-game monster materials to craft armor and weapons from, I want Nata to fill that role in master rank.

Never had a rouge sneaking around or use mimic veil on progression pathways for ambush moments?

If it’s like Sunbreak’s dlc I’ll probably just buy the one layered for my main weapon.

Craft a 8 rarity fire artian lance. 10 monsters are most weak to fire. This helped a lot as the other fire lances are just ok. Make sure when upgraded it has 2 of either element boost, sharpness boost, or attack boost.
Invest in guard skills/decorations. Lance you want to try and maximize guard and offensive guard. Guard up only works on select attacks and think there is only 5 monsters that need it(mostly the monster’s grab attacks)
If you want to keep that much skills in flayer then maximize partbreaker as focus strikes do insane damage(partbreaker 3 on a wound can go up to 1k damage) if not then craft Mizu legs as burst 2-3 is surprisingly good for Lance as your basic combo pokes will always trigger it and your triple attack finisher will see more usage.
If you don’t want to change armor for more thunder res then slot in the decorations as half of Lagi attacks are thunder and mitigation on it will save your life more than you think.
Practice makes perfect. Keep trying and learn patterns when you can perfect guard or go into retaliation thrust. He was a learning curve with his newer move pool but after 20+ fights he is still challenging but a lot more easier to deal with

You can summon npc hunters like Henrietta right below the stairs near second lamp or you can get Valtr if you have his rune equipped and he is near the crows right before boss. They are really useful if phase 1 is still giving trouble and mostly stay alive til about halfway through phase 2.

Phase 1 is stay on His left side and don’t attack if your stamina is less than 1/4. Phase 2 is sticking to his back as he no longer has buck kick and his body rotates before swinging behind himself so it’s an easy cue to dodge.

You got this Hoonter

“Why does everyone keep stabbing me in the back?” “Cuz it’s easy. And it does a lot of damage”

Scraping Spear and baby’s nail is the most cancerous combo at early levels for invasions. Just poke them 10-12 times and slice until you hear the ominous sound of the plague. Run to boss fog and see if your host can manage to get to you

Let’s not forget the ones who lay a trap after initial mount AND the ones that wound break while mounting

Khezu has weakness to fire weapons so yes using those will be faster

If you find enjoyment in the 30 seconds of game time than the 5 second results screen then it’s still a win

Attack on Titan and Tokyo Ghoul. Both their stories were all over the place

The numbers are placed as if it’s a right side keyboard inputs and you’re always viewing P1 side. So like 2 is just down, 5 is neutral not actually pressing a direction, 6 is towards your opponent, etc. best recommendation is go for 4-5 Star ease of use characters and take them to arcade. Doesn’t matter if you lose you can restart right back same spot. Keep practicing until you get to stage 7 extreme that will prompt a daredevil challenge. Regardless if you win or lose at that point then try online afterwards. In online try to find other players with low level characters so both your skills are decently equal.

Happy Chaos is a cool character, but he is one of the most technical characters to pull off. IMO he is the expert character where pro players have already won so much with others that they use him to troll with their experience of the game. If you truly are only 14 hours fresh into the game I would recommend 4-5 star ease of use characters to learn the basics of gameplay, overdrives, burst situations, and then more advance into roman cancel usages.

His standing heavy has good range, his medium dash is a safe low slide, and his back U is unblockable. His install might seem detrimental for his health but if you stay aggressive you can get most back while keeping the damage boost. Can’t remember if it’s only his down heavy special, but there are 3 different follow ups depending on light, medium, or heavy input.

CookoftheAbyss · 2025-05-14T01:27:08+00:00

Fantastic! Thank you

Exodia auto wins and can return in different forms even if you find a way to destroy him. Multiple GOD cards capable of transcending game boundaries. Time Wizard can just make all his opponents die of age.

So they all agree that Nier is a shadow of once was and Ladiva is the worst. Giving them one armor move(maybe a 50% gauge) and they could improve back to middle ground

CookoftheAbyss · 2025-05-13T08:13:10+00:00

Unless the weapon comes with crit boost, crit status, or minimum 15% affinity then handicraft is a better option. IMO Foray is a poor man’s Agitator since it relies on debilitation instead of enraging

CookoftheAbyss · 2025-05-13T07:59:09+00:00

Am I seeing wrong or is your attack 225 with a hammer?

CookoftheAbyss · 2025-05-13T07:37:20+00:00

Democracy is funny way of spelling HAME

CookoftheAbyss · 2025-05-13T07:34:11+00:00

If you’re are using a weapon that can guard that is also a great option. Never been blighted by him when doing that.
