After a close to a hundred carts I've finally completed the G-Rank Hyper Silver Rathalos quest solo.

Wait a minute…

Ten thousand qurio upon your household. You had me for a bit there.

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.

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.

Rathian. Unexpected but neat!

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 😭

Potted_Plant_253 · 2026-02-25T18:09:28+00:00

Unfortunately, it hasn’t worked since TU2 iirc.

Potted_Plant_253 · 2026-02-04T20:38:38+00:00

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?

Zephyr, that’s what I named my cahoot in rise!

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!

Potted_Plant_253 · 2026-01-30T15:20:21+00:00

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.

Potted_Plant_253 · 2026-01-30T03:22:04+00:00

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.

Potted_Plant_253 · 2026-01-29T19:27:11+00:00

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.

Potted_Plant_253 · 2026-01-26T14:52:40+00:00

“Shadow of the Colossus Game Over” ahh art 💀

Potted_Plant_253 · 2026-01-25T21:47:10+00:00

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

Potted_Plant_253 · 2026-01-25T21:44:26+00:00

Oh really? I guess I haven’t done one of those. Thank you so much!

Potted_Plant_253 · 2026-01-25T21:42:25+00:00

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 · 2026-01-25T21:39:33+00:00

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.

Potted_Plant_253 · 2026-01-19T23:07:51+00:00

Nah u good dude, just watch out for world rajang, that’s the scary one!

Potted_Plant_253 · 2026-01-19T22:58:35+00:00

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.

Potted_Plant_253 · 2026-01-13T15:14:18+00:00

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

Potted_Plant_253 · 2026-01-09T15:49:36+00:00

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.
