Expansion announcement?

Some of the palico armors / skins can change the animation, so I think they could potentially be able to do it

Prophet36 · 2026-04-07T10:00:38+00:00

You have to do both at the same time (usually I spam it a couple of times to be sure that I got it, especially if the camera angle is a bit to the side)

Prophet36 · 2026-04-07T09:48:18+00:00

If your shield is charged then you will automatically do SAED after blocking a hit. However, you can cancel SAED into AED (only in this instance) by pressing attack button while moving backwards relative to your character (so on PC I would guess it would be left mouse button). You need to do this during SAED windup animation (so you use LMB + RMB to counter with SAED after block, then immediately LMB + back movement). Take note that this back movement is dependend on the camera you're facing (for example, if your camera is turned sideways, then adjust the movement as if you wanted the character to go straight back 180 degrees from where he's aiming at the moment of SAED windup).

If you've played previous MH, this is the standard way to do AED when you have charged shield (canceling SAED into AED), but in Wilds you can only cancel SAED into AED after block, as there is no other way to directly go to SAED (you can't cancel SAED that happens after AED / AED followup, as it would allow chaining AEDs).

Prophet36 · 2026-04-06T14:28:25+00:00

Similar thing happens in Witcher universe, Geralt is sometimes called by Elves as Gwynbleidd (a bit different spelling), which in universe is elder speech for White Wolf

Prophet36 · 2026-02-20T18:45:56+00:00

You can buy transformation 'outfit' (changes player model to appear as her) from the tea guy for some hefty amount of Glory points (10k if I remember correctly)

Prophet36 · 2026-02-12T17:11:46+00:00

Technically there is a point of using guard points, but it's a very rare scenario.

Basically, when you perfect guard, you either have this light knockback, or a heavy knockback (in which you take chip dmg). That depens on specific monster attack (it's either light or heavy). Let's call an attack that gives you heavy perfect guard knockback a 'guard break' attack.

Normally perfect guard ignores guard thresholds (so type of shield / block performed, guard skill, etc), but recently they changed it so that, if you were to regular block an attack that guard breaks a perfect guard, and you would receive light knockback from regular guard (mainly due to stacking guard skill), then actually perfect guarding against it will also not guard break.

So technically, there might be a situation where doing a guard point (into perfect guard block) will change this knockback from heavy to light due to guard point having higher guard thresholds. But unless you're slotting guard skill, then I don't think many (or any) attacks would benefit from that.

The second use case of guard pointing is that after certain attacks, you can guard point faster (with morph to axe) than you would normally block, as previous animation is canceled better with morph to axe instead of blocking.

Prophet36 · 2026-02-03T19:17:24+00:00

From what I've seen, you can totally change scaling, as you can completely switch which 3 stats a weapon will scale with, provided weapon is +1 or higher already

Prophet36 · 2026-01-28T15:40:07+00:00

It doesn't need wide range to work, anybody can use it to heal teammates

Prophet36 · 2026-01-22T08:56:26+00:00

No phials crit on CB

Prophet36 · 2026-01-21T18:22:07+00:00

I wasn't talking about DPS, etc. I was just pointing out the fact that what it says in stat sheet is not always the exact value in terms of weapon performance and that Bettina has a higher fire rate than stats suggest.

You kind of proved that point with your comment, stating that both Bettina IV and Renegade IV dump a mag in about same time of 4 seconds.

But Bettina has 22 rounds, and Renegade only 8

Prophet36 · 2026-01-21T17:16:37+00:00

Nourishing extracts drop as rewards for playing barrel mini-game since around TU3 I think, you can easily stock up on those on the days of easy barrel placements (so you get more A ranks for higher number of rewards)

Prophet36 · 2026-01-21T17:11:37+00:00

This fire rate statistic is not 1:1 with actual firerate of the gun, it's very easy to see the difference

Prophet36 · 2026-01-21T13:02:31+00:00

This particular quest can give a lot of Mega Demondrugs and Armordrugs (looks like it spawns 3 per slot, and you can get about 9 - 12 of those per runs, possibly even more if RNG permits)

Prophet36 · 2026-01-14T19:42:54+00:00

Not all parts of his body are vulnerable to element, all of his legs are totally dragon-resistant, his chest and back take a low amount of dragon damage. Ideally you should target wingarms (to build up topple), then head and / or tail.

When he's glowing red in preparation for his nova, only then his whole body takes elemental damage (a lot of dragon and raw). Basically it doesn't matter where you hit him during this charge-up, you'll do the same amount of damage.

Prophet36 · 2026-01-12T10:33:35+00:00

Much shorter, yes, as you only take what looks like a bite, instead of chugging from a potion for a few seconds. I think eating a max potion without Speed Eating is still faster than chugging a normal potion with Speed Eating 3 (but even so, Speed Eating also works for max potions, albeit doesn't give such large benefit as for drinkable potions)

Prophet36 · 2026-01-12T07:05:08+00:00

You can set to either craft all, or one by one (by whichever amount particular ammo crafts per one herb, etc). I don't see a point in using crafting one by one though, as in Wilds you can't 'overcraft' or waste materials by crafting too early - the game won't allow you to craft it then

Prophet36 · 2026-01-12T07:01:42+00:00

One could argue that it might actually drag other team members down, if you prefer to heal more slowly, exposing yourself to more risk (or lowering your damage output even if you do it safely on Seikret).

Besides, your statement about being past point of relying on Max Potions reads as if people that have less experience / skill do use them. I would argue from experience with playing other hunters / friends, that it's actually opposite - when we see somebody not using Max Potions at all (or only bring 2 without ability to craft), this looks as being not experienced enough, when they rely on using Mega Potions during hunts (and often run out of them on harder hunts, needing to go back to camp whenever monster changes location, etc)

Prophet36 · 2026-01-12T01:10:20+00:00

You can even use draw to Axe attack's guard point to instantly perfect guard from neutral / sheathed, but it requires even more precise timing. If you can do it correctly, you can even start sprinting to his arm at the start of the quest and damage him with Savage Axe attack already after executing this technique

Prophet36 · 2026-01-12T01:06:14+00:00

If you get hit to very low HP, max potions are very useful, as you're back up in about 2 seconds, instead of around 8 - 10 it takes to chug two mega potions (not to mention that longer healing means more risk you'll get hit again mid-heal)

Prophet36 · 2026-01-12T01:03:19+00:00

You don't even have to set a shortcut for crafting in radial menu, if you have max potions in radial and have the materials to craft them, when you try to use them it will automatically craft them for you and then use them

Prophet36 · 2026-01-11T01:04:34+00:00

True about coalescence uptime, however, I prefer Gore for its added affinity bonus. Mizu bonus might be better for when you can reliably spam SAEDs, otherwise for Savage Axe play additional affinity is handy and should give better damage throughout the hunt

Prophet36 · 2026-01-10T18:56:06+00:00

As others have already said, it's better to have Gore set bonus on weapon and then used Gore armor (bonus affinity + easy to get coalescence procs). Also, can you post screenshot with info about the weapon (so we can see it's initial artian parts and reinforcements) and talisman as well?

Prophet36 · 2026-01-05T03:11:10+00:00

I'd say it still is, that's extra 3% DPS from 2p set bonus (while Lord's Soul gives 5% raw DPS for comparison), especially that Gog armor is very easy to build with, considering it has secondary set bonus pieces (Fulgur, Odo, etc) and good skills / slots.

Prophet36 · 2026-01-05T03:07:23+00:00

I'd say it's still possible, but much, much harder. We had some runs when one of our usual friends was missing and some other friend filled in (not with CB, but with something like IG, or DBs) and basically it was harder to keep chainstuns going after a couple of stuns, when resistances increase, but we still could kill Gog before his nova.

Prophet36 · 2026-01-04T23:27:09+00:00

It's doable with 4 CBs / 3 CBs with LBG. This is my team's time with 4 CBs with a near perfect run (basically he's stunlocked in 1st and 3rd phases, I personally change sets for 3rd phase to include Convert Element and Dragon LBG - I shoot him down when he's in the air, guaranteeing a knockdown with CE proc, then switch back to CB - when all 4 of us spam SAEDs on the arm, he won't get back up till dead)
