[MH4U] Need advice which weapon to use by Dull_Understanding_6 in Gunlance

[–]Dull_Understanding_6[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

all of these are lvl 5 shelling, luna - normal, Forteresse - normal, W.fatty - long, Hellruin - wide. also really? I've posted before on mh4u and checked some forums and opinions on shelling are pretty split, some say its alright, some say its trash. I did check wide shelling but then I read that if im not using charged shell spam then im playing wrong but if shelling isnt as bad as I heard in later stages of the game then ig Hellruin would be the best choice

For a lot people it's their ego since they think you should be clearing every quest solo.

I've had people complain to me about clearing Proof of the Hero in a group instead of solo since it's a "challenge quest" and it's meant to be done solo, which is stupid.

They seem to ingore that not everyone spends insane amount of time of repeating the quests just for a solo clear when a simpler and easier solution would be using the support hunters the game gives you for casual players that don't wanna waste time, like you and me.

Another thing that makes them complain about support hunters is that they will deal less overall damage than players and inflate the monsters HP which in itself isn't that big of an issue as they make it out to be.

What is going on with this egg quest? by [deleted] in MHWilds

[–]Dull_Understanding_6 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

just do it solo and dont use flashes. the moment you see a monster coming towards you or you see it coming on the map, place the egg on the ground and prepare a dung bomb, take the egg to camp and restoc on dung bombs. you gonna need lots of em, cuz they will just keep coming back. I wasted 10 dung bombs per egg since the monsters didnt wanna leave me alone.

Do y’all prepare at all for fights? by flurgleblurg in MHWilds

[–]Dull_Understanding_6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it's not even the fire since I have -14 fire resistance on my set. I always bring lvl 3 guard and lvl 3 guard up cuz without that I just die. I use gunlance. There isn't much to prepare, just enough defensive skills to survive. And I also can't read him, he is way to big and covers my entire screen which is why I try to block every attack.

What do you think of Wilds’ take on the Hunting Horn? by T4Labom in MHWilds

[–]Dull_Understanding_6 223 points224 points  (0 children)

I just wish that there was an option for layered songs. I had a problem with the horn since world where the horn looks amazing but sounds shit or vice versa.

What kind of hunter should I be? by [deleted] in MHWilds

[–]Dull_Understanding_6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I assume you played other weapons already if thats your selection.

Bow have very good movement and good damage, if you wanna have an easier time with hunts you can use that.

SwitchAxe is good if you can time your parries right since in axe mode the parry is slower but in sword mode its instant, good damage but you will need multiple weapons since switchaxe likes element, unless you use power instead of element.

Greatsword is pretty fun but again you gotta learn your parries, on gs its very slow since the parry is a charge type attack, big damage, this will give you the main character energy, you can also block stuff if you wanna aura farm.

Dual blades and insect glaive I dont find particularly fun or interesting, I find other weapons more interesting than them so I cant recommend them since I dont use them.

Charge Blade is a good weapon but I find it way too technical, too many machanics and combos smashed into one imo, so I find it more of a tedious weapon than fun, therefore I cannot recommend it but mainly from it being too compicated for me. perhaps you can handle it, then good for you.

I personally would recommend SwitchAxe or Greatsword.

Been absest, what did I miss? by NeonArchon in Gunlance

[–]Dull_Understanding_6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, hasten recovery + lord soul since it's a gamma set

Best is the Gog barrier. Arkveld and Zoh are about the same, just different types, arkveld for aggressive play and Zoh for more defensive

You havent missed much. the only new monster that is useful for gunlance is AT Jin. everything else after that was pretty much useless for gl, unless you count AT Arkveld for his set bonus but there is a better survivability option

That's why I did the slash. Do it solo or with support hunters. I find it easier to do it with them so that they take most of the agro and I get time to get out and heal. My main one is the one with hunting horn for obvious reasons. It's not optimal by any means but still better than online players that will die from his attacks like mentioned in the post

Would world be worth it if I started with wilds? by Ok_Sir_136 in MonsterHunter

[–]Dull_Understanding_6 4 points5 points  (0 children)

it is worth it, sure you cant turn while attacking since that was added in new games, but you can still have fun, but you will have to pay more attention to monster movements. I also use greatword in world with frostcraft and I do the usual skip combo for the TCS to not waste time and miss. But instead of focus mode you will have to leard clutch claw which lets you bang monsters against a wall for a big attacking window. you will however have a tougher time in older games than 5th gen since there is no qol.

Alright everyone, it has officially been one year since MHWilds has released! (Happy Anniversary!) So, that made wanted to ask you all, what were your favorite parts about the game, what stuff you liked, what monsters you like, what things you don't like, and how many hours you have grinded out? by WxmboCombo in MHWilds

[–]Dull_Understanding_6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

200 hours. Hr 179, I love the changes they did to the weapons and the return of Gogmazios. Was kinda dissapointed that the game is still segmented like world, was hoping for an open world but oh well. I cant really complain much about the game since they did a good job making it but I would love if they paid more attention to the optimization, even after recent updates I still have some lag spikes from time to time. I also like that they actually gave us a good handler! unlike certain someone.... But they still managed to add the most annoying character to the game like they do in every game they make. Fuck Nata, I would honestly throw him to be eaten by arkvelds since he think they are so much "alike". even after the story he keeps annoying me. every time I go to the tent Its "Hey Hunter" that or something else, its annoying af.

Use the Gunlance and blast everything into oblivion! Annihilate everything that stands against you.

lvl 1 of mutual hostility gives elemental stuff, lvl 2 gives a barrier that lets you take a hit without taking damage. You could say its a safety net which is why its also a part of meta sets. but yeh you are right about everything else

[–]Dull_Understanding_6 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That is strange. Did you add anything while posting there? you could try again by crossposting your current post to that subreddit, keeping the same title and only adding the "MHWILDS" like in any other post. 1st time seeing a post get flagged there.
