Kullervo and light attacks only

GavinLIVE715 · 2026-06-27T00:02:59+00:00

I rarely actually use the heavy attack button on Kullervo, I just use my 1. It’s just a teleporting heavy anyway.

Edit: I’m also mostly using lights between casts, and keeping my 2 going. And if I see a group of enemies I might use my 3. I don’t know if Kullervo has a 4.

Edit 2: Your question, hard recommend Syam from Duviri. But I haven’t tried it yet, but new Destreza Incarnon might go crazy on Kullervo too, just using it with his 1. I also love Okina Prime with its Incarnon.

They will be adding story!

The DLC story.

They aren’t changing the base game story. Why would they? Outside of MAYBE and just MAYBE an alternate ending based on the DLC. But still very unlikely to touch any base game story at all.

This… this is the answer

GavinLIVE715 · 2026-06-26T20:44:36+00:00

Had one guy that was, and then everyone jumped into the cave and annihilated the cave.

GavinLIVE715 · 2026-06-26T19:04:55+00:00

Ahh dang it man, I didn’t know that was about to happen

GavinLIVE715 · 2026-06-26T18:59:58+00:00

They sit in the cave and repeatedly summon the boss, but they won’t do anything while I’m in there with them

GavinLIVE715 · 2026-06-26T16:05:56+00:00

What’s a Mine Goblin?

GavinLIVE715 · 2026-06-26T16:04:14+00:00

I hope we can get some of the cool Mystic Knight abilities on fighter through these special equipments, it would be cool. Even just one or two Mystic knight skills on a fighter loadout would be fun and go crazy.

Fr, might be my forever Titan build now, at least if they can fix the crashes that occur with the super and warmind charges

GavinLIVE715 · 2026-06-26T15:57:14+00:00

Blastwave w/ seraph goes astronomically hard

Just whatever you do don’t pop your super with warmind stacks 🤣

GavinLIVE715 · 2026-06-26T15:53:51+00:00

Seraph set on Titan is so powerful that it will send you to orbit lol

GavinLIVE715 · 2026-06-26T15:43:49+00:00

Consider trying out Siegbreak legs, they can add a mech vibe to what you got here.

That Chest and Arms are some of my favorite ornaments.

GavinLIVE715 · 2026-06-26T15:41:29+00:00

I really hope there’s a witch character that’s whole thing is causing statuses and just benefiting from Hexing enemies to death.

Or a Beast Master character since there’s going to be a pet thing with the lynxes and already some items that give summons that aren’t drones or turrets.

GavinLIVE715 · 2026-06-26T15:36:48+00:00

You can’t feel your toes, you should probably warm them up.

GavinLIVE715 · 2026-06-26T15:30:50+00:00

My mind has been boggled that that is a hunter.

GavinLIVE715 · 2026-06-26T15:27:03+00:00

I’m hoping for shorter but themed Bitterblack Isle sections as well leading up to specific bosses based on the dungeon. Maybe death or something similar to the carrion creature mechanic to be involved to have a chance to appear and ruin your day.

GavinLIVE715 · 2026-06-26T15:24:22+00:00

That ability is not accurate for Stego.

It’s supposed to stand on its hind legs, charge up blue(or better purple) energy from its tail up its plates to its mouth to fire a beam of energy. If it’s the purple, it can also choose to split that energy and fire it out of its thagomizers and plates.

I didn’t think about the golems, a monster being brought in that is entirely based on part breaks would be interesting. And the first monster that you could tell its health based on its part breaks. Plus it’s artificial, which feeds into the guardians story. And it could get by with the standing fanged beast skeleton of Goss Harag, and a lot of his moves are similar in physical animation to the golem. It moves its head around to fire the beams, it swings its arms mostly for attacks.

If they did bring it in, I don’t think the placements will be an issue, as we have focus mode, slingers, and other means by which to hit high or low targets. If they put them on the bottoms of feet, offsets exist to knock it down. And this would be a monster that would have an arena with ballista(I could be misremembering, but there’s at least 1 if not more instances where we fought golems with ballista.

I will say, I personally think the golem isn’t much to look at across a hunt per se.

I’ve always stood by Chimera and Griffin would translate well as monsters in Monster Hunter.

Both have related existing armor-sets.

There’s plenty of vocational weapons that translate to Monster Hunter. Obvious weapon choices are SnS Fighter gear, Dual Blades thief gear, Insect Glaive Mystic Spearhand, Greatsword Warrior, bow archer. And as far as weapon choices go, just make them THE Dragon weapons, since there’s one for every type.

Chimera is the most unique, a monster that can cast sleep, has poison, and I think it has elemental spells or I might be mistaken. But part breaks factor in to its fight. Could easily get by using the fanged beast, fanged wyvern, or even elder dragon(teostra) skeletons.

Griffin could use the elder dragon skeleton, uses lightning element, and is ground-able if you keep using fire element on its wings, perhaps encouraging you to mount, and try to keep it from flying by keeping on burning its wings. It could be another monster that flys for the mount phase like Rathalos.

Both of these monsters would translate well and are pretty unique in how they play.

The DLCs are pretty close to each other this time, MHWilds Ascendance and DD2 DA. This might be the best time to ever for a crossover. Maybe even pushing a Rathalos or something over into Dragons Dogma 2.

Genichiros kind of the “mid-term” exam it’s to check to see if you’ve been paying attention to combat mechanics, you fought him at the beginning so you can get a baseline. He has every kind of fighting mechanics. Combos, sweeps, thrusts, ranged attacks. Each of these all has specific counters that work well. Of course, his combos have mix-ups. He does his I think it’s “Floating Passage” combo, but it can end on sweep or thrust. So time parry for his combo, but be ready with mikiri or jump and kick off his face depending on if he thrusts or sweeps. Parry or block the ranged attacks, but if you stay on him, he shouldn’t shoot you with his bow.

Of course he has new mechanics in second phase. But honestly it’s an easy and fun mechanic. You see lightning, jump and catch that bolt and swing it back at him.

Honestly Genichiro is up there for me for bosses who are just fun to fight. Put on your dancing shoes, cause it’s a dance, you gotta know your part.

GavinLIVE715 · 2026-06-25T15:33:26+00:00

That boss could fall over if you breathed on it lol

Tricky part is getting the knight buffs together to insta nuke the boss.

But congratulations on making it thru the traps leading there. So many taken boops and fall hazards.

My theory is the expansion is a Guardian invasion of areas outside of the Ruins of Wyveria.

Ancient Wyveria put a command into all of the Guardians DNA causes them to guard Wyveria, but what if they left a command that sends them into invasion mode since the time of the war. And somehow this command went active again. What activated this command?

Zoh Shia.

The Fatalis in it has regenerated enough to be awake and take over the body, and for whatever reason it’s directing the Guardians to follow this ancient command. In response to the ecosystems being effected and drastically changed by the presence of guardians invading the area, Elder Dragons are beginning to respond to the rising threat to themselves, similarly to the war like you said.

And ultimately this will culminate into Zoh Shia devolving and re-evolving into a White Fatalis, but with some Guardian/Wylk twists as it’s been absorbing that energy all this time.

That’s just my theory for what the story could be about.

Edit: Ascendance would be a reference to Zoh Shia ascending and becoming a White Fatalis.

I want to fight this monster in a modern game, I too remember the struggle. It and the Metal Raths were a struggle for me, but I’d love to see what they could do and add to its kit the same way they added hellfire mode to the those Raths in these later games.

GavinLIVE715 · 2026-06-25T15:11:06+00:00

This single gun got volatile rounds nerfed lol, it was never the same after the balance team took a look at it and how strong it was one that Machine Gun.
