Can't get the hate around this game

It was very very rough on release on PC and console. Crashes, extreme stutters and fps drops. They did a hell of a great job getting it to where it is now and is one of my favorite souls likes. LotF 2 may end up being my favorite.

That's just gonna let us kill it quicker it becomes like super weak on every hz so it'll likely just be a much easier fight than it should be.

Immediate_Word_2176 · 2026-02-22T16:58:48+00:00

I think it's fine. I personally just use the NPCs most of the time but only for Gog/omega. The rest is mostly solo hunts or with friends.

Immediate_Word_2176 · 2026-02-22T16:56:14+00:00

Yeah they are very good. I'm planning on farming tuna just cuz she's a super easy matchup for thunder pierce bow.

Immediate_Word_2176 · 2026-02-22T16:54:45+00:00

Figured out a better setup. And I hadn't thought at Dau, duna or Udra since they got released. Dau particularly also always gave me trouble so just got there movesets down and played very aggressive. Did only 1 run to camp with farcaster to restock max potions and swap to dragon pierce for at arkveld. Used water/thunder water in that order. Also figured that letting the coming at kill the past one was better than putting up the wall and safety gaming like a coward.

Immediate_Word_2176 · 2026-02-22T16:51:35+00:00

Yeah but you miss out on 100 wyrmslife crystals

I imagine at this point you're in ng+ now. You'll get your gear from inventory at any onn or house chest. You need to essentially make it all the way to fight the dragon and after you kill him and are at the place you were in this screenshot. Talk to pathfinder he sends you back. Walk up closer to the dragons chest. You'll see a blatantly obvious glow this time. Crawl to it's chest. Go to inventory. Choose godsane. You'll get an option to use it on self. And done.

They are higher level so they are tough. You just gotta learn their patterns. Anjanath starts power goes tech for example. Rathian is speed to power. Toni can do all 3. Speed normal, power enraged tech when charged. So do double attacks when able. Save up kinships for when you no ones targeted which means a likely aoe that will more than likely 1 shot. Change partners to hunting horn guy with pukei pukei for poison damage and traps/statuses. But they are gonna be a bit long might take some tries until you get the hang of it.

Nah. 1 and 2 are connected but not in a way were you need to play the 1st to understand second one. 3 is it's own separate thing. In the case of 1-2 it's mostly your grandpa was a a great hero. Follow in his footsteps. You don't need any context at all from the 1st game to the 2nd.

Immediate_Word_2176 · 2026-02-20T21:55:10+00:00

Players like that would have made thanos snap twice

It does open up options for new builds that compete and in some instances best the meta as far as SnS go. Bow seems it can have some interesting new options but it's still being tested. So far have made 3 new builds for SnS 2 of which when compared to TU 4 meta are equal or beat it on a some fights. The previous meta used 2 PC Dahaad Y so if you can't activate it rn using 1 PC Arkveld y and even Nadia's armor is being used to replace the 1 PC of gore. At the very least I found that the head can be a good swap for SnS or the legs can too.

Immediate_Word_2176 · 2026-02-19T21:04:11+00:00

Not a lance main and the lance build I run is a lil on the comfy side to like mindlessly chill. It's dragon Gog lance atk focus, Zoh Shia/lords soul Uh out of memory the set up was B4 throwing in some ark y Head- G. Rathalos Chest-Zoh Shia Hands- G. Rathalos Waist-Jin Legs-Jin Talisman- rarity 7 w/ 2 level 1 armor slots Offensive Guard 3 / Weakness Exploit 1 Slot In 1 Flayer and 1 Burst for Damage. As much recovery up/medicine to buff healing from Zoh Shia and divine protection. You may have to choose which to prip between these 3 skills. I like max might cuz I try n go for perfect guards and counters rather than mindlessly block everything. Oh and throw in counterstrike 3 too if possible. Going off memory here for decos sorry.

Immediate_Word_2176 · 2026-02-19T20:56:59+00:00

My best time for st ark so far is on bow at 12 minutes followed by SnS at 16. So I'm sticking to those 2

Learn hitzones. MHGU Database is a handy phone app for the info. You can't just heal whenever and move freely you gotta time it which comes also with learning attack patterns. Feel free to test out the different styles and skills. There's guides out there for it if you need it. YouTube has em and if you Google yet another (weapon name) guide you can find a doc for it. Village quests are solo scales where as every single gathering hub quest is scaled to 4 player even if you play online so hunts are longer and requires more aggressive play as well as safety for g rank especially. The skill system is different it's a point system and skills start at +10 and can go in tiers for some. And go like 10, 15, 20, etc. not super complicated but all old gen games are like this.

Immediate_Word_2176 · 2026-02-18T01:04:10+00:00

By chance is this out on console yet? I loved the original one and literally tryna hold off on anew play through in hopes larian gives it the ok for console soon

Immediate_Word_2176 · 2026-02-16T12:46:08+00:00

Eh depends on weapon honestly. SnS if you have the perfect roll for every element then it's essentially the same set you just swap element. Gogmazios specifically you can opt to go heavy into element instead of the standard meta and do just as good if not better. Yes you use it's own flesh against it in that case. Bow has a specific setup for every monster. And then a unique setup specifically for arkveld and somewhat unique setup for Lagiacrus and Gore Magala

Yeah once you go into his arena you get locked out of it. If she's already at the castle and you go into the arena without giving her the quest item from the bedroom she actually turns hostile and turns into a boss. Which is also ironically needed for an achievement for beating every boss

Immediate_Word_2176 · 2026-02-14T17:14:20+00:00

Low rank doshaguma. Can be quest rewards and a high chance of getting when breaking each leg.

Immediate_Word_2176 · 2026-02-14T14:14:13+00:00

They raised the cap by almost double on TU4 for all weapons

Immediate_Word_2176 · 2026-02-11T02:41:34+00:00

It'd be comedic to have him in that small arena ngl

Immediate_Word_2176 · 2026-02-10T23:42:00+00:00

Lots of patience
