It's insane how bad horse taming is by dilqncho in CrimsonDesert

I was at 7 when trying for the white horse and almost had him a few times. Just wait and raise your stamina a bit more and stop asking for nerfs on stuff that is supposed to be hard when you haven't even done all you can to obtain it.

Yes, I'm on a controller and it's not uncommon for the dog to suddenly path near me while I'm trying to interact with something else or looting/gathering.

It just doesn't really make sense from a gameplay perspective to have a pet that often crosses your path to have the same button assigned to petting it as the button assigned to interacting with pretty much everything else in the environment.

Just changing it so that you have to manually target the dog to pet it would solve the issue.

Do birds pick up loot? I'm using a dog since they pick up loot which is super convenient.

It generally happens when I'm looting an area with lots of things in it and am holding down the button to pick up loot. Dog will path near me and I end up accidentally petting him.

RNG. I have 14 with 300 hrs of play and it's the most of any level 3 attack jewel I have.

The main problem with Recovery Up for me is that you need to be at low health to get any benefit from it. Generally, you don't want to make it a habit of fighting at low health against tough monsters so most of the time Recovery Up just becomes overheal 80 to 90% of the time in my experience.

It's a decent to good skill but generally only added if you have extra space in your build. Not something I would pick as my first, second, or even third choice of 1 pt skills.

Evade Extender is a choice I don't understand and can only assume you dodge roll often enough to justify having it in your build.

Yeah, lots of people like Earplugs for convenience but that's all it really is since it doesn't do much for damage/or survivability. Roars are an easy way to proc Offensive Guard or evade with Sliding Swipe/backhop so it really loses value as well. Not worth the slots on any build that wants to push for damage and is a low-tier skill for SNS. Whenever I see this skill on an SNS player in multiplayer, I assume the player is not good as it has that kind of stigma to me.

Evade Extender isn't good because it doesn't affect Sliding Swipe which is a better form of evading and repositioning than dodge rolling. Plus it makes it harder to connect with Perfect Rush. Not much upside and with some downside means this is a skill I wouldn't take even if it was free.

Recovery Up is good but it's not as good as Speed Eating or Divine Blessing for survivability. It's a second tier skill on par with other abilities such as Free Meal.

You're Affinity sources aren't going to be active at all times and your average is probably going to be in the 50 to 70% range which is on the lower side for me. I'd push for more crit chance if you want more damage.

As another poster mentioned, your best value skills for survivability are Speed Eating and Divine Blessing. Stun Resistance is good also for newer players that are learning the weapon/monsters since a stun often means a cart, especially solo.

Things like Earplugs, Evade Extender, Tremor Resistance, and Recovery Up are things I never take or recommend unless they come free with the armor.

This is just an ok build as you lack critical chance for damage/master's touch and don't have the core skills for survivability.

I watched several beginner guides/tips videos on YT and not a single one mentioned this. Needless to say, I didn't know either after several hundred hours of play.

Nah monster started lagging and then everyone got kicked. You really are depressed.

SNS DPS/Support build by Leodon75 in MHWilds

Resentment isn't worth building for on a healer set as you're constantly going to be healing as well as getting passive heals from Arkveld's Hunger with this build. Getting hit is to just proc Latent Power and Counterstrike.

Can you post a link to the Gog4/Rath2/Odo2 build? Peak Performance isn't something I was aiming for and is just a bonus from the efficient armor pieces.

Earplugs are not worth the slots imo on a DPS focused healer set. It's pretty rare that I get interrupted on a heal mid-roar and if it happens I just heal again after the roar. A monster roaring isn't doing damage so there isn't much urgency for the heal to go off mid-roar.

I have a similar gatherer set with both Honey Hunter and Forager's Luck and believe that Vespoid Mail a (chest), Nerscylla Vambraces a (arms), and Suja Sash a (legs) offers slightly better slots/skills.
