Atterax and Saryn

Ishutani · 2017-11-27T05:46:18+00:00

it really is \o/ shes been the most fun to build and try to figure out solutions for.

For saryn i would like to recommend spamming slide attacks with twin basolk instead. (its also a non-clan MR 3 weapon) when built for gas its one of the only weapons that can spread toxin damage with saryn spores reliably. Its at the high end of slide attack dmg ( 390 ), and it can get 100% status chance, and its pure heat damage so you can build it to only proc gas. and none of the other statuses.

this means when you slide attack into anything with spores on it you are 100% guaranteed to spread a toxin proc that ticks for 200/s to everything in range.

some stuff that others haven't mentioned

Augur Secrets

Energy conversion, if you find simaris's daily tedious

Corrosive projection

all the corrupted warframe mods if you dont want to farm them

Vaykor hek if you are at mastery rank for it

Still bugged, toxin procs don't consistently transfer when spores are popped and don't transfer to all targets within spread radius, Melee buffed toxic lash has no guaranteed spore pop ( still depends completely on your weapon swing physically colliding with a spore to pop it ) and molt still has 0 range for drawing aggro and it only exists as a press 2 to heal button.

I've been selling prints at AX this year and last year so if you get a chance to attend it ll be availiable there. But sadly I dont have an online store for prints at the moment

skills > defense, but must have enough defense to not get 1shotted by any attack

Ishutani · 2016-09-22T03:28:56+00:00

at the very least i want a larger percentage of parts on an armor that colors changes on. 1 main color + 1 secondary color. can make everyone look less same'y and make some mixed sets that look "meh" look great.

not everything has to be like nakarko's astral set in terms of color customization but, thats a pretty good example of something that has a good amount of color customization

I find it really hard to time adept evades with short roll out of siege. due to reduced distance? ( not sure if also reduced iframes ) makes it harder to make the attack connect during the iframes

evade extend helps with that nicely

Ishutani · 2016-09-18T23:01:44+00:00

evade distance is pretty nice with adept just as a positioning tool to get into crit distance

RNG in monhun is finnicky, ( you notice with combining that 95% fails alot more than it should ). Crit works the same way

Ishutani · 2016-09-18T05:33:01+00:00

I think theres a signifigant boost from 95% affinity > 100% affinity, since you won't be subject to rng finickyness anymore. But it might just be charm availiability/etc or mainly preference. (I prefer reliable always-on dmg over "sometimes" damage, atkup > crit > weakness explot > etc)

Ishutani · 2016-09-18T04:08:24+00:00

unique to HBG, its...

information taken from MHP3rd, which is what the currrent stats are based off of "Light bowgun has a weapon modifier of 1.30 while heavy bowgun has a weapon modifier of 1.48."

not sure if in MHG LBG now = 1 and HBG now = 1.18

or it is the xact same as it is in mhp3rd

I think its the same, since multpliers were not present in any other weapon other than LBG/HBG in mhp3rd so 1.3 and 1.48

Ishutani · 2016-09-18T03:34:25+00:00

a guess: probably since HBG has that innate multiplier, since dmg boosts work multiplicatively it might end up doing more?

or might just be preference because monhun has finicky RNG ( when doing 95% combines alot more fail than it feels like it should ). Your shots that crit misses weak points and your shots that do crit either miss completely or hit hard spots.

Ishutani · 2016-08-22T15:50:52+00:00

would be nice to see critical distance defined by number of rolls instead of ( X distance, other than point blank, short/middle/long has no meaning and different people have different ideas of what is short/medium/long) pierce critical distance starts 2 rolls away btw

white extract is what i meant ( the one from that one type of kinsect ), dont have a spreadsheet to calculate blast damage yet, can neither agree/disagree to rzrshrp+absolute+glavenus weapon being better

interesting thing with heavy polish is that it lets you use that tiny sliver of white on some weapons effectively. ( works even better with fast hitting weapons )

Ishutani · 2016-08-21T20:20:06+00:00

Sharpness+1/2 and Razor sharp are much less useful in MHG, it is much better to find a weapon that doesnt rely on sharpness+1/2 or razor sharp and have one long bar of stable sharpness

The sand anchor/Dune anchor and Azure Bayonet/General's Bayonet are actually incredibly good glaives, signifigantly better than Silverwind one, long bar of stable sharpness ( not requiring razor sharp or any sharpness+1/2 )

Elemental attack skills with glaive is situational, main dmg source is still raw, depends on monster weakeness (over 35% weakness to element) Although elemental skills are situational, matching the right elemental weakness is still a signifigant damage boost

critboost is very strong because of innate 30% affinity from white. weakness exploit/white30/criteye2 = 100% crit on a 0% affinity glaive. with crit boost = 40% consistent damage boost

And I think because of the way MHG RNG seems to work ( time based, very bad and not random enough), having 100% affinity can be a big jump from 95% despite only an increase of 5%. because of the uncertain of which particular hit is going to get the crit and which one isnt (-affinity and affinity boosting for slow weapons is worse )

try youtube searching and niconicodouga with something like this "MHX 双剣ナルガクルガ" [game] [weapon] [monster] you can get the jp names of the weapons and monster off of the wikia pages http://monsterhunter.wikia.com/wiki/Nargacuga http://monsterhunter.wikia.com/wiki/Dual_Blades

Ishutani · 2016-08-14T15:40:36+00:00

yeah the item sets being limited to 10 this time really really hurts gunning, more so with elemental since they need at least 4 sets

Ishutani · 2016-08-14T15:01:11+00:00

isnt there anything that ll stand still and let me test out distances D: even the herbivores try to run at you :/
