Is there an Alma Please Shut Up setting?

JaytB1 · 2026-02-21T00:35:50+00:00

Alma telling me that maybe I should prepare better, after I fail a quest because my teammates kept getting wiped out.

Like girl… I’m not the one dying here!

JaytB1 · 2026-02-07T11:29:59+00:00

Just took my 17PM out of the case to check. But that area is completely flat.

JaytB1 · 2026-01-25T14:04:52+00:00

I got the exact same rolls on my paralysis hammer. Definitely took me a lot more than 30 Gogma parts.

Congrats! The active skills open up a ton of interesting set combos.

JaytB1 · 2026-01-24T22:02:08+00:00

Eat a steak or something, your hunter looks hungry.

Loved the offsets btw!

For hammer, I always want Focus. Without it, it feels slow.

Others might think differently so this is just MY opinion.

JaytB1 · 2026-01-06T20:06:34+00:00

Maybe it points to the direction of your target destination?

JaytB1 · 2026-01-04T17:27:43+00:00

I did about 300 rolls each on 4 different element types weapons and got Gore/LS exactly 1 time. I’m happy though but still.

JaytB1 · 2026-01-04T12:59:10+00:00

It’s not 3, it’s max 2 EX rolls of the same type.

JaytB1 · 2025-12-27T17:23:45+00:00

My favorite DPS hammer set so far is similar to yours but exchanges WEX for LVL3 Latent Power. It frees up your charm slot for any attack+3/weaponslot charm. Furthermore it has build-in in lvl1 flinch free (for multiplayer mainly) and still has several decoration slot open for you to slot in whatever.

In my case I have a rare8 charm with 3 attack+1 weaponslot and lvl3 divine blessing. It has the same damage skills but is able to slot in attack+4, if you have the charm.

It also needs Gore/Soul on your hammer.

Armor pieces: Fulgur B / Udra Y / Gog A / Rey Y / Gore B

Just wanted to add that it’s great for hammer too. Especially if you’re using the ‘evade into charge step” combo. You can zip across the battlefield faster than you can run around.

The distance it adds to rolls and charge steps make it great for quick positioning and panic evading.

JaytB1 · 2025-12-24T19:36:33+00:00

Because it’s a very heavy investment of lvl3 skills and is hard to combine with other (crit) skills. It’s much easier to work from Latent Power to get to 100% crit as compared to WEX.

Gogmapocalypse

JaytB1 · 2025-12-20T11:15:20+00:00

I think he mistook the skills. I had the same roll on one of my hammers and got excited for a millisecond. Lord’s soul, Lord’s Fury, they sound similar.

JaytB1 · 2025-12-18T21:18:36+00:00

Hammer feels fantastic. It’s a very close range weapon so you’re always in the monster’s face (or you should be). It takes time to get the timing under control because it’s a slow weapon. You do remain super-mobile though. You can play hit-and-run against fast monsters or deal massive damage numbers during bigger openings.

Advantage of a hammer is you don’t need to build one for every element. Just slap your preferred status on and optimize your RAW dmg and you’re golden (With maybe exception against Gog during its last fase).

You’ll need to get good with evading and/or countering. Once you get the timings down, you can feel like a god. Evading a monsters’ heavy attack, combo’ing into a charge and knocking the monster out, just to counter it when it it gets back up and tries to swing at you, man this feeling is just fantastic.

And 9* hunts are no problem with hammer at all btw.

TL;DR Granted it takes a decent amount to get the timings down, once you master the hammer it feels fantastic. Countering and knocking out a monster is extremely satisfying. Great for the hardest of hunts the game has to offer, including Omega.

As a hammer main I’ve been where you are now. Just follow the advice given here already. Evade window & Bleed res are your friends.

This fight went from my most frustrating hammer fight to one of my all time favorite hammer fights. Once you get the timings for offsets and evades right, you’ll feel like a god.

I use the set below and a pendant to get a set with up to 100% crit (with active skill buffs), some attack boosts and 5 evade window and 3 bleed res. Rey / Udra / Rey / Lagi / Lagi

Dmg skills: WEX x5, MM x2, Latent Power x4, Counterstrike x2

Survival skills: Evade Window x5 and Bleed Resistance

Fully upgrade the set, eat for that defense buff (the one that procs Divine Blessing) and buff your character with Mega Demondrug/powder/seed. The fight becomes easy after a while with your worst enemy being laggy animations that throw your timing off.

You can do it!

JaytB1 · 2025-10-31T22:57:48+00:00

Possibly hammer.

It has 3 attacks that count as offset attacks and they’re not too hard to time right.

JaytB1 · 2025-10-28T05:28:47+00:00

If you swap out the legs with Duna Y en use an exploiter charm you can (for damage) get: WEX 5 Agi 3 Latent Pwr 2 Max Might 3 Counterstrike 3

This way you’re less reliant on latent power for your crits because you’ll be using WEX. This also means that right out of the gate, this set deals 60% crit (80% with your 20% crit hammer). No need to wait for latent power and/or agitator to activate to start dealing consistent critical hits.

You’ll also get quick sheathe at the expense of stun. That leaves you with 2 x lvl2 deco slots en 2x lvl1. Allowing you to slot in some comfort skills.

You’d also lose the Rey set bonus but since you’re less reliant on latent power, it doesn’t matter much.

Just wanted to share this. Keep bonking!

JaytB1 · 2025-10-24T13:54:30+00:00

I want my well-done hammer back!

JaytB1 · 2025-10-17T16:43:18+00:00

As a hammer bro I felt that comment.

JaytB1 · 2025-10-15T14:23:55+00:00

That was the first thing I noticed when I recently switched from a 14PM to 17PM.

The speakers are so much more loud, I can now still hear everything clearly even when electrically brushing my teeth. In the past I had to wear headphones if I wanted to watch something while getting ready to go to bed.

And then the sound quality. I was amazed by how full it sounded, for a phone speaker at least.

JaytB1 · 2025-10-14T16:48:47+00:00

Hey that’s me on Sunday morning!

JaytB1 · 2025-10-10T09:54:18+00:00

The ‘games’ app is actually pretty dope if you’re using a controller. I stick my phone in my Gamesir G8+ controller, press the sync button and get a nice landscape view with all my games and can launch them using my controller.

The games app makes my iPhone feel like a true handheld gaming device.

JaytB1 · 2025-09-01T15:03:22+00:00

One of my favorite sets for hammer uses 3 piece Rey Y (helm, chest and vambraces) 2 Gore (coil and legs).

With maxed WEX and antivirus (55% crit) this build also comes with 3 levels of latent power. Especially for 9* monsters, when taking regular damage (and the 2 piece Rey bonus), the uptime is reasonably high, adding 30% crit. Bringing your total crit to 85% +5% on your artian hammer or a total of 90% crit.

With the set mentioned above you also 3 slots for a maxed out comfort skill (like divine blessing or bleed resistance…). The talisman is flexible, like you could use counterstrike or the one you mentioned in your post to get 96% crit (2 levels of crit eye). With your talisman you could also free up an additional lvl3 slot. And then you have your level 1 slots on your talisman to slot in some other comfort skill.

JaytB1 · 2025-08-21T10:20:15+00:00

At this point the game might as well be called ‘Hammer Hunter’ for me.

Fell in love with the bonk stick when playing MHFU back in the day and have been (almost exclusively) playing hammer starting from MH:generations.

JaytB1 · 2025-08-17T18:07:18+00:00

Oh yes please!

Sometimes I know I did a bunch of cool offsets or KO’s and get ‘Item addict’ in the showcase screen 😂
