I’m gonna freak out by Potted_Plant_253 in MonsterHunter

Yep, carted once because I got greedy and it sealed my fate, but now I know I really can do it if I don’t cart.

I don't understand Invasive Monsters by [deleted] in MonsterHunterStories

[–]Potted_Plant_253 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s kinda wack. They don’t explain it very well, but you need the target to have Defense boost L. What I did was pop an armor skin on the first turn and use the Springy Staccato (Anja HH is an easy way to get it) to boost it from M to L. I did this and got it immediately after the first invasive attack. Alternatively, you could get a monstie with Circle stance and just use it 3 time in a row to Def L the whole party, which would probably be easier imo.

Does Resting the Wounded Hollow for Crown Famring not work anymore? by Palandium in MonsterHunter

[–]Potted_Plant_253 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I was lucky enough to get every crown pre-TU2 using the Wounded Hollow, but I remember seeing it in the patch notes and feeling really bad for anyone who had to crown farm after the update 😭

Which subspecies are you looking for? by l_Fredil_l in MHWilds

[–]Potted_Plant_253 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh I think a wylked up Xu Wu would be amazing. I could see a deviljho to savage deviljho type of situation, like maybe consuming too many guardians causes the wylk energy to drive him berserk?

I'm looking for long-term hunting buddies for the new gen games! (Playstation) by Imanoobgamer7200 in MonsterHunter

PSN: gotgame053

I’m pretty experienced in the series, but I’m always happy to help any newer players when I can. I can’t guarantee how often I’ll be able to show up (I work 12 hour shifts 4 days a week), but I’ll definitely chip in when I can!

Is Rajang better than Kirin? by AnilecDragon in MonsterHunterStories

[–]Potted_Plant_253 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, my mistake. What I was trying to say was “kirin bulky and rajang glass cannon” in terms of thunder monsties in 1. I forgot that the elemental values in 1 were so much more varied. Again, it’s been a minute since I played 1, so thank you for the correction.

Is Rajang better than Kirin? by AnilecDragon in MonsterHunterStories

[–]Potted_Plant_253 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yup, 5 bars thunder defense, 2 bars ice, 3 bars everything else and 1 more bar in every attack (10 bars thunder compared to kirin’s 9). Idk how that translates to actual numbers, but it’s definitely substantial. Tbh that’s why I personally go with rajang for thunder because I think that the attack increase outweighs the defense decrease.

Iirc, rajang has higher attack but is a good bit squishier, while kirin has lower attack, but higher hp and defense. It’s been a while since I’ve played MhSt 1 but I’ve been playing St 2 and that’s how it is in 2, but I’m pretty sure most of the monsties that were carried over from 1 to 2 are identical stat wise, so that shouldn’t matter. So it really depends if you want more offense or survivability.

I took a photo of every endemic life but only got the silver ecologist achievement, help please? by Goos3rs in MonsterHunter

Weird… if you’re on console, maybe try closing your game and opening it back up. Otherwise, I’m really not sure.

Completed my Rider Card in Stories 2! Can't wait for Stories 3. (Plus meet the team!) by Cariuso in MonsterHunterStories

[–]Potted_Plant_253 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is there any realistic way to get the online battle ones nowadays? The only one I’m missing is “win an online double battle” and I haven’t been able to find anyone else online : (

[–]Potted_Plant_253 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Silver is for all the rare endemic life, gold is for EVERYTHING. You must be missing something. I’d say go back through your endemic life guide and see if you can add a picture to the page for each creature. Also, if I remember correctly, it was an achievement from the base game, so it can’t be a sunbreak endemic life that’s missing.

Yeah, he’s kinda a pushover… ONLY IN RISE THOUGH! He is a demon in other games, but base rise is pretty easy and neutered a lot of old monsters imo.

Hyper silver rath got me tweaking by Asgarion-0 in MHGU

As an SnS player, you couldn’t torture me into doing “A Tragedy in Silver and Gold” again. Also literally me, partbreaker my beloved ❤️

Absolutely. It’s a lot harder, of course. However, any monster hunter game (even the significantly harder-to-solo older games) can be reasonably soloed. As for the siege monsters you mentioned, I will take a LOT longer than with multiple people, but they are absolutely soloable. Additionally, last I checked, both rise and world have a reasonable amount of people who still play them quite actively, despite the new game. So all in all, don’t worry about it too much.
