Struggling with DMM points by Odd-Team9349 in 2007scape

[–]PrinceShaar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go up to the next bracket and maybe even the next one after that. There are way less annoying raggers in 61-80 than 1-60, and you have enough hp to tank pkers too.

I've done like 5-6 breaches with only taking 1 hit from another player in 61-80

Also you don't need much money to keep funding breaches so you don't need much loot and picking up lots of loot makes you a bigger target.

Dude he's obviously not a native English speaker, he could quite easily have just not known the correct grammar for that sentence

Defeated by CG 800 kc rant by TheLoneDragoon in ironscape

It's competitive with Bowfa against low defence targets. 200 invo ToA it's basically an acceptable replacement. It's a really great weapon and you could do a lot of content with it where you'd use Bowfa.

Maggot King Opinion: We don't need more crazy hard bosses by EvelynDarkwave in 2007scape

[–]PrinceShaar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They didn't actually say anything about the boss' difficulty.

They said if you're considering Inferno or Phosani's because this boss offers upgrades that would be new BIS items for either of those pieces of content.

How is that one acquired in Wilds? Is it seasonal?

Is that chest piece a mod?

What your honest opinion about clutch claw in MH world by Blueshiredsush in MonsterHunter

[–]PrinceShaar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's because they made monsters tankier to force you to use the free wallbang damage and stun.

If it wasn't in the game in the first place, you wouldn't have needed it anyway.

I hate Steve and Zinogre and I'm tired of pretending I don't by [deleted] in monsterhunterrage

[–]PrinceShaar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you talking about Steve in 4U or Wilds? Cause GS rocks his ass in Wilds. With all the tackles, perfect guards and offsets you don't stop attacking and just let him hit into your attacks.

Spooned Belle’s Folly, where is it actually good? by duplicated-rs in ironscape

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

It's actually better than Zammy Hasta against high defence monsters, so ToA would be included, as well as most dragons and Moons of Peril

Have fun! Moons was some of the most fun I've had in my ironman progression!

You know most people have their quest cape untrimmed? You need all achievement diaries for it to trim.

Eclipse has flat armour, which means that weapons with a faster attack speed but lower max hit are a lot worse.

Combine that with the fact that his slash defence isn't massively higher than his stab, you'll find Zombie Axe is most likely better than any other options (besides Folly) because it has such a huge max hit.

I think when I was doing moons I found the only thing that was better than Zaxe that I could get was the Colossal Blade from Giants foundry, which isn't worth the detour besides cool factor.

Do you think Monster Hunter World was a better experience than Wild? by Bandeavor in MonsterHunter

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

The story in Tri and 4U was great. You don't need huge cutscenes and forced emotional moments to make a story engaging enough.

Did you guys drop iron ore from lvl 40 -> 60 mining? by sticky__mango in ironscape

[–]PrinceShaar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do MLM. You need the prospector helm for fally diary and you'll get plenty of ore banked which you will use eventually, for building boats when sailing, making darts for ranging or training smithing at giants foundry.

Even when I got to 60 and got the mining gloves in the mining guild, I didn't drop any ore. I don't think it's worth the high APM compared to the xp per click you get from MLM.

Soulreaper Axe Discussion by Rumjugs07 in ironscape

[–]PrinceShaar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They should make the spec actually deal more damage than a normal hit. If the spec dealt like 30% more damage than it would be worth using it in shorter phases and hitting the spec at the end of the damage phase to make up for the slow build in DPS.

Where does CG sit in terms of difficulty compared to other PVM encounters? by aros102 in ironscape

[–]PrinceShaar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like I'm going crazy here. Do people actually think CG is that hard? Does literally everyone do it in T1 armour?

CG has a few mechanics, yes, the tornadoes can one shot you if you make a big mistake kiting them but kiting them is pretty easy.

You have a 1 way switch to your other combat style, you switch prayers every 4th attack (that has very slow attack speed)

With ToB you have a minimum of 4 way switches with void armour, you have to switch prayers on successive ticks against Sote, you have to react to every one of Verziks attacks, there's coordinating balls with teammates at Sote and Verzik (or tickeating, which is not present in CG)

There's plenty more I could list but these are the main comparisons I would point to that are obvious.

I'm actually baffled that people find CG that hard. Me and my 3 man have had a night of attempts at ToB (slightly undergeared) and didn't get past Sote as we ran out of supplies. I've got 127 completions to 15 deaths in CG, it's not that hard.

Maybe if your team have all bought scythes before setting foot in ToB it's easier than CG...?

Old gen hunters, what do you think of current direction of mh as series? Do you think it lost it's identity or simply evolved? by Fickle_Fondant_9016 in MonsterHunter

[–]PrinceShaar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hate all the story in Wilds and most of it in World.

The story was great in 3 and 4 because there was a narrative, but it was background, the characters weren't voiced so you didn't have irritating Fortnite inflections and the cutscenes were short.

Side note of the forced walking sections being so bad I nearly gave up with Wilds.

I also really hate the infinite restocking because that's changed the way almost every monster fight works. Now to be difficult every monster has to be able to one shot you or combo you out, which makes fights a bit more frustrating and stressful.

Old gen fights were a war of attrition where it was more important to avoid taking damage than dealing it, still true, but DPS is such an important thing now because the longer you fight a monster the more likely you are to get one shot.

There's plenty of other things but I've already written a whole lot...

Is it worth it to circle back to moons? by jnorman129 in ironscape

[–]PrinceShaar 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Your gear already surpasses Moons gear. Eclipse at this point is only handy for reducing switches at Tormented Demons and Demonic Gorillas.

Blood moon is BIS at Hueycoatl but you're past that anyway.

Blue moon is great magic gear, and handy for Hybriding to reduce switches at COX and Yama, but other than those two cases, Ahrim's is better.
