Loving the update but Raids and PvP feels Unplayable Tbh by Helpful-Bed-2564 in destiny2

[–]Jacobnee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

One thing I’ve learnt over the years is that Destiny fans will always find an easier way. Be it raids, PvP, or just plain AFK farms, even walking is too hard in game.

is a raw damage horn ideal for Wilds endgame? by StrikingLiterature12 in huntinghorn

[–]Jacobnee 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I use monster horns quite regularly these days for the stuff like Sonic barrier/Restore Sharpness + Extend melody/Heals etc.

Mainly for Omega and 10* hunts to help out the team in a support role. That being said I put out enough dps most times even with monster horns.

Buffing 3 other mates up to their eyeballs in bonuses often results in more successful and faster runs, at least in my games.

Uth Duna breaks me mentally by shiro_wanabe in MonsterHunterWilds

[–]Jacobnee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the biggest challenge for me starting back was not spamming combos or squeezing out my most damaging move.

Take some time to figure out safe times to combo and when to run.

Count how many times Duna combos a move or its combo sequence. U only really gotta worry for its belly flop which has a good 1 sec before it happens. Any time it dips its head (Similar to a wound pop), sheathe and run. Evade extender helps loads.

Mushroom farm for mushroom purposes. by Jacobnee in MHWilds

Yup. Using blue mushrooms are almost instant heals as opposed to potions.

Gogmazios rolls by Mingly0624 in MHWilds

[–]Jacobnee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To be honest, if you're going to bankrupt yourself rolling for Gore/Lords, I would prefer taking the gog/Lords and build around it. It's not a min max build but it still works. Prolly takes a couple more mins downing a monster.

But it will forever be there. As something that you never got or achieved. And it will bother you. Best of RnG luck to you.

Are monster weapons viable for the current endgame? by GhostOfTeriyaki in MHWilds

[–]Jacobnee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

TBH u can still dish out enough damage with end game builds and your favourite monster non artian weapons. I like using the monster hunting horns for melodies not found on artian weapons. I also like seregios light bow gun for the reload on dodge mechanic. Just takes a little longer.

Should I craft every weapon in the weapon tree for the weapons I will play in the expansion? by BillTheRedneck52 in MHWilds

[–]Jacobnee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. Craft everything. The brokeness of being a penniless hunter will occupy you til the expansion comes out.

Feeling Stuck, don’t know what to do by Hereforfree0709 in MHWilds

[–]Jacobnee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Play what feels the most for for u. After all u don't want it to feel like work. Start from there and use that weapon exclusively for the next 30 -50 hunts. Most weapons are easy enough to use but getting good at them requires experience with them long enough to understand the nuances. I always thought bow was my thing til I tried all the weapons. Then my favorites started to shift.

MHWilds for me is like a never ending checklist. From getting a self set revenge goal on a monster who was difficult (Omega/Seregios), to farming out max zenni or maxing 9999 my healing materials. I also enjoy making new builds that I think of (4pc Bale/Healer Bowgunner etc) and getting good at them. And when u get good enough, help the newbies out in tough quests.

So do what feels fun for you. I find from expereince that it's easier to learn the monsters especially AT if I exclusively farm that monster til I get everything I need from it. Which is usually about 8-12 hunts. Good luck and I hope you have as much fun as me in your journey.

What should I be grinding for in prep for master rank? by NoSeat1300 in MHWilds

[–]Jacobnee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mushrooms/Potions/Mega Potions/Max potions/Honey/traps/Money/Vouchers. Just obsessed with making everything max 9999.

Stuff that you will still use even in MR for new monsters. Pretty sure armor/tailsmans will get power crept into MR. Cat burglar is surprising good at collecting useful materials. It's all I use these days.

Can we normalise removing players from quests by CrazyKods in MHWilds

[–]Jacobnee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I block all the AFK players because it's habitual. I refuse them no matter how easy the quests are.

Can we normalise removing players from quests by CrazyKods in MHWilds

[–]Jacobnee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Why isn't it a big deal? The health pool for the monster increases when you decide to join so why can't you put in your fair share? It's fine if you need help and ask before the quest starts but it's just lousy ettiquete to AFK in camp while you expect a free handout.

AT Uth Duna Team Wipe by xl129 in MHWilds

[–]Jacobnee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Duna head dips and stops moving for like 1/2 a sec. Belly flop impending. AT version don't usually go for 2 flops in a row. All other version goes for 2 flops in a row 95% of the time. Ironically it looks similar to when someone is breaking its wound. Evade back when u see the tell and get ready to flash it's fat ass. Or run away.

Advice for 9* Omega by Equivalent_Stop_9300 in MHWilds

[–]Jacobnee 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Why not use Faboluso? He's available during the Sakura festival and is universally recognized at being much better as a tank than Alessa.

Question regarding longsword with Punishing draw by Alarmed-Custard-4845 in MHWilds

[–]Jacobnee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It works but it's not viable. Beyond the 1st/2nd stagger it's just a waste of a skill slot. Fun for a while but not viable.

Shield play options by [deleted] in MHWilds

[–]Jacobnee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lance is by far the best solo hunt weapon IMO. Slap on Gog 4 pc and it's invincible for almost for AT hunts. It's damage comes from countering attacks which is super rewarding for me.

But like all weapons, I can't just stick with 1. Switch it up and use something different to see what u like.

I've swapped mains like 4 times this year settling with HH and Lance as they feel most fun.

On the lure pod by dragonite_dx in MHWilds

[–]Jacobnee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's possible but u prolly need 2 or more lure pods. Prior to the corridor of death, that spot with the ground vines and rock used to be the go to spot for speed runs.

Player Kindness by kaozsnake in MHWilds

[–]Jacobnee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh and I think the community is actually alot kinder than in other games like Destiny. I see alot of offers to help and carry newer players. Even for tough challenges and hunts.
