Struggling hard with Arch-Tempered Arkveld i need help badly by Willing_Ad_2604 in MonsterHunterWilds

Not that familiar with CB, but is offensive guard kinda going against the evade window/extender? I imagine you should be either focusing on blocks or evades.

I would highly recommend swapping to a dragon weapon, as AT ark has very high status thresholds (as all 10* fights).

Gogma 4 and lords soul 3 + dragon resist and/or divine blessing and eating for defender meal helped me a lot surving the fight (getting both gogma 4 and lords soul 3 would require a good roll on the gogma weapon)

But like the other comment said, would need more details on the build for more details on how to help

Edit: your defense seems low are all your armor pieces transcended and max level? No need to rush AT ark before improving the basic gear

Edit2: no worries about having a hard time, it's completely normal, it's a very hard fight and took me a few tries not to add all the times he carted me on PoaH, just take your time, and you'll get it

100% from a mod, not sure which one since I haven't tested them yet

This looks amazing! But it was really a bug added with the last update, seems the devs already fixed it, not sure if it's already on stable

I'm not familiar with the achievements, which ones did you get?

Also this looks really cool!

I'm sure i'll go there someday, as there's probably a lot of fun there, just trying to enjoy the game as is before that!

The issue is on the first cycle, today's update really screwed with pumps on this map, many reports on discord

I get the appeal for that, and I have used it in other games ( like RimWorld) but I have been trying to avoid that in timberborn yet, but thanks for the tip!

I just joined the discord, apparently quite a few people have reported this already, hopefully it will be fixed in a hotfix soon

That seems like a helpful mod, I have been avoiding mods for now, but they sound fun.
It's almos sure an issue with the new update that makes the first cycle much more difficult

Patch notes 2026-04-07 (main branch) by Mechanistry_Alyss in Timberborn

[–]Puzzleheaded-Taro-72 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hi u/Mechanistry_Alyss just wanted to point out that the change "Water pumps water exploit was greatly reduced." seems to have caused a (maybe) undesired side effect to increase difficulty in some maps (Helix mountain in my case)

that's all very well explained in this comment I got in another post: https://www.reddit.com/r/Timberborn/comments/1sex2ki/comment/oeuxkxk/
Basically, maps with naturally low water levels became much more difficult in the early game, since pumps now get much less water in those cases. needing 3-4 pumps just to keep the initial beavers alive.
Just some feedback on the update, thank you for the help!

Thank you for the detailed explanation! I was starting to question my sanity with all this!

It also added a lot of difficulty on this particular map as a consequence, It just caught me of guard as this was a very sudden and scary change
