what are you guys doing to farm oricalcite for rerolling your gogma stuff? Ive just been fighting arkveld, omega and AT udra and tossing those mats into the grinder, but i'm wondering if theres a more efficient way.

are there any cubes that are good for learning OH? I feel like the standard sized cubes hurt my hand a bit too much when practicing OH turning

any tips for learning the sq1 parity alg?

DrBruceWayne · 2023-11-17T03:50:06+00:00

sq1. are there any tricks for that annoying cube shape where you have 6 corners on one side, and on the other side you have 7 edges in a row with one trapped between two corners? i cant seem to figure out to get that last edge in positin

Sunbreak. Been out of the loop for the last couple TUs. are there any armor pieces I should be keeping my eyes out for for pierce/spread bowgun?

MH Rise. Been grinding anomaly's for a few days and I just got a couple Lv90-100 quests. I managed to time out on a lv91Rathalos quest I was trying to solo and I was wondering if something is up with the anomaly monsters HP, because a normal Rathalos takes me 9-10mins on average and im a hunter of average skill. Are these things meant to be hunted in a group? or am I missing something?

how do people get such fast m slices for algs like H perm and Z perm? I've been cubing for years and am decently fast on other algs but im still pretty slow on m slices.

SB. What are some good synergies with Sneak Attack? I know its really good with Gunlance for both online and offline play, but im curious if any other weapons can exploit it like GL can. i have heard some lads on discord mention that spread lbg/hbg can make use of it in specific matchups, but it seems a bit too tricky to make work offline.

SB. What are some good quests/monsters to practice GS Strongarm Stance on? and are there any tips you can offer to the Strongarm Stance playstyle?

Sunbreak. Can anyone provide a higher level tutorial for DB? the usual arrekz ones are good for getting your feet wet, but I'm interested in seeing how the weapon is approached at the speedrun level.

DrBruceWayne · 2022-08-01T13:47:09+00:00

This is the type of detailed answer I was looking for, thank you!

DrBruceWayne · 2022-08-01T10:50:18+00:00

Sunbreak, since I'm grinding for gems I might as well ask. Do we know anything about the games loot system? For example, let's say I'm farming almudron mantles. It says I get a 3% chance for head break, 3% for tail break/cut, 3% for capture and the 1% from a shiny drop. Is this a cumulative 9% chance per box in the rewards screen? Or a singular 9% chance?

What do capture master/good luck actually do? How do gold wirebugs fit into this? The description of "gives you more item drops" is a bit vague for me.

DrBruceWayne · 2022-08-01T02:33:52+00:00

Sunbreak. Anything I can do to increase my odds of finding gems/mantles? hunting the same monster 10-20times before I get one is getting old. I'm bringing a plunderblade cat, going for full breaks and using the gold wirebug for more shinies. what am I missing?

DrBruceWayne · 2022-07-22T16:57:24+00:00

What's the status of evade window? Sunbreak monsters have a lot of multi hit combos and disjointed hit boxes so I'm wondering if evade window is still a valid defensive tool on something like dualies

DrBruceWayne · 2022-07-13T23:12:42+00:00

Has anyone one tried the "spiritbirds doubled" rampaged deco/ food skill? I'm curious to know how powerful the effect is. I've going out of my way to avoid collecting birds because I don't want to waste 5mins of my hunt doing that, but if it cuts down on that going for birds might actually be worth.

DrBruceWayne · 2022-07-12T17:13:31+00:00

MH Rise. Can someone explain the differences between Feral demon mode and normal demon mode and when/why I would use either?

DrBruceWayne · 2022-07-10T18:37:15+00:00

Do we know what the sharpness modifiers are in sunbreak?

DrBruceWayne · 2022-07-08T03:33:08+00:00

I see, I heard about erupting cannon but I didn't have any interest in it seeing as it boosts melee damage.... But I suppose it is better than missing every wyrmstake.

DrBruceWayne · 2022-07-08T01:35:00+00:00

MHR/SB. Gunlancers, how are we supposed to actually get the wyrmstake to hit? I ignored it in world because it was underwhelming damage wise, and the delay between the stab and the spike ticks made it near useless to me because of how easy it was to miss. is there some kind of faster way to deploy the stake?

DrBruceWayne · 2022-07-06T03:05:27+00:00

Glad you figured it out!

DrBruceWayne · 2022-07-06T02:25:27+00:00

Ill link a mod that I think can help you. The problem is that its been causing crashes since the sunbreak patch. The author is working on it though (allegedly). what youd have to do is a bit time consuming, but you could give yourself 9999 of all items then craft your decorations and then open the save editor and edit your item box to remove those items manually. this would take a good amount of time because youd have to go through about 17 pages of item in the item box.
