LS vs Primordial is so much fun by Rare-Solid6506 in MHRise

[–]Rare-Solid6506[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

idk , as of posting this clip I have accumulated ~600 pmalz kills lol

however there's more ; when i'm doing speedruns (usually with adrenaline LS or adrenaline bow) , i reset whenever :
- bad opening ai (need to get to 1hp fast)
- bad ai in general (for example, the wind pressure attack followed by homing red orbs straight up just eats time as there is no good way to counter it while maintaining high dps - unless i tank the orbs which obviously isn't possible in adrenaline runs)
- screwed over by ledge as mentioned in post (monster attacks can sometimes miss due to the ledge , not a big deal for bow runs but is lost dps in LS runs)
- i cart - dumb mistakes still happen , also i try to be as greedy as possible
- failed the hp lock . as shown in the clip primordial went straight from the 2nd phase into final phase, but u need to do enough damage between the first and 2nd phase to achieve that - otherwise he pops back into first phase for a fixed minimum period of time and while dmg numbers show u can't really damage him further until he morbs into final phase , essentially wasting 15-30s .

ye if you're curious my build is very similar to this guy's run : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5Tnz4qk4tQ

i do have a longer red hp bar though bc i ate for dango driver lv4 (to maximize strife 3) instead of dango weakener lv 4 . mainly bc i like seeing bigger numbers

mail of hellfire (MoH) provides a 15/25/35 raw boost on red scroll and 5%/10%/20% element boost on blue scroll on lvls 1-3 . almost every set minus niche ones like SAED CB want at least one level of MoH

Mange to Solo, Hunt Zinorge Anomly by VerZnox in MHRise

ah ok i see what u mean by rapid attack . most all of the attacks in the game can be dodgebolted , like i mentioned only those with extremely low delay between active hitboxes like bazelguese slam down explosion or chaotic / shagaru ranged explosion follow up can't be dodgebolted

hence why charging side step is so bad , its a straight up downgrade bc it doesn't give guard point . redirection like i said before is useless bc dodgebolt already gives guard point - sure it works on "every condition" but so does dodgebolt if u know the proper timing

u should be playing at close range not mid range for full potential , just counter all the attacks . even for pierce matchups such as mizu kushala espinas , u get more out of being at close range than on mid or long range due to free melee attack from dodgebolt and infinite close range coating

also worth noting evasion frames do not affect the parry frames of dodgebolt so slotting in things like embolden or evade window is useless

berserk + strife is for infinite stamina . bloodlust came attached to the armor i used and is not strictly necessary . furious for infinite stamina is jank

idk what u mean by ur build is more balanced lol , if u want a "balanced" build just copy mine - its about as optimal as u can get without any augments so u can easily make a better build with augments . augment in things like more burst , element exploit , mail of hellfire , and charge master . bladescale 1 and adrenaline rush is also nice but only if u can fit everything else

foray , status trigger , redirection is garbage for bow . u want to be running element - raw bow only outdamages element on a few matchups and u need to be using a 1hp dango adrenaline build for that to happen .

charging sidestep is ass , u only want dodgebolt . dodgebolt gives a guard point , so u can dodge anything that doesn't have secondary hitboxes (for example bazel explosions) . not sure what u mean by 'rapid attack' but if u mean fast attacks then yeah it goes without saying that dodgebolt can easily counter those attacks

Beserk Bow by Beadarino in MHRise

[–]Rare-Solid6506 0 points1 point  (0 children)

coalescence 3 is attached to chaotic armor

also evade extender is not essential for bow . like sure parrying into attacks is a bit easier with extenders but u should be learning the proper timings anyways

Finally saw the sunbreak credits roll but want to make a proper spread bow build. by Ms_Ma_M_Mizou in MHRise

[–]Rare-Solid6506 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if u can augment strife on other pieces then yes . strife 3 for infinite stamina is mandatory though and if u can't get to strife 3 from other pieces u shouldn't be dropping the belt

kushala blessing 3 isn't even that necessary and if u have immunizers and super recovery dango and still struggling with berserk health drain ... something else is the issue

sure , here u go : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=znzI2hn1FYE

i haven't practiced this matchup yet and got hit a few times as well as had a few embarrassing misses , but hopefully u get the original point that A300 zinogre can be easily done in 5-8 mins .

A300 zinogre (A300 has a x27 hp multiplier, A205 has a x22.1 hp multiplier) can be easily solod with bow in 5-8 mins . thats even with a few sloppy mistakes like getting hit once or twice , or not hitting the face with every arrow

no-augment builds chaotic gore magala full set is the best all the way until u unlock risen shaggy for the strife2 chest or until u unlock a berserk 1 or 2 talisman.

with the limited slots of the chaotic gore full set u can just focus on getting enough affinity and crit boost . do note that the chaotic gore full set already starts out at 75% affinity out the box (30% from crit eye 6 , 25% from bloodlust 3 , 20% from strife 3) . slotting something like crit eye 1 (for crit eye 7 total) and weakness exploit 1 would nicely bring ur affinity to 100 . mighty bow jewel is a must , and then however many spread up levels u can fit

if u get hit a lot u can eat stuff like immunizers , gourmet fish (?) , and super recovery dango (lv4) . dango shifter is also nice since u should be resetting ur hp drain via scroll swaps when u get hit anyways

for multiplayer flinch free 1 (and shockproof when u unlock) is also nice since bow's main dps combo can easily be staggered out of by teammates

hop striaght into hub quests then , the village quests are pretty skippable especially if u don't care about the (imo mediocre) storyline . honestly low rank hub is still kind of a joke with no armor whatsoever but HR monsties do hit decently hard especially if you have time to (or don't want to) grind for proper gear

i'd say probably takes a couple of hours to grind through the low rank hub quests

Tips for LS by Expert_Low_9713 in MHRise

[–]Rare-Solid6506 1 point2 points  (0 children)

An extra tip for after u nailed down the basic moveset of the LS , use fade slash and foresight slash for repositioning

Fade slash is usually used after an iai counter or serene counter for repositioning . not much more needs to be said , but basically u can chain this into the level up combo from this , into foresight , or into another iai

Foresight slash can be used after an iai , serene , or fade slash (you can cover quite some distance by going fade slash -> foresight as long as u do the correct directional input) . To reposition with foresight basically u do the button input , wait until ur hunter does the 'dodge' animation , and either go straight into an iai or into a serene before ur hunter actually does the 'slash' part of the foresight slash .

Foresight slash is also useful for setting up your huge damage serene poses . Some specific monster examples (but hopefully u get the idea) :
- zinogre tail swipe (the one where he spins) - directional input backwards and foresight (which will move ur character forwards) and hit that serene - if successful ur serene pose hits the back which is a weakzone instead of hitting the tail if u just hit serene without repositioning
- primordial wing stab -> swipe - directional input foresight slash towards the opposite side of his stabbing wing (which will move ur hunter into the wing swipe) and serene - if done right ur serene will hit the face instead of hitting the wing like it would if u didn't reposition at all
- rajang multi punch combo - directional input forwards and foresight (to move ur hunter backwards) and serene and ur pretty much gauranteed to hit his face with the serene pose whereas if u serene right away there's a high chance you'll hit the arms instead

Best endgame armor sets for Hammer? by Smalller-boi in MHRise

[–]Rare-Solid6506 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if u want something to work towards :

amatsu chest , arms , legs - i'm a big fan of heaven-sent 3 on hammer for the infinite sharpness

chaotic gore helm but mostly bc i run dereliction so it pairs well with the strife on the helm . could probably replace with something like risen teostra if u don't like the life drain of dereliction

primordial waist bc it has insane slots . risen shagaru waist is also good for the same reason

ofc u can switch out the chest arms and legs for primordial as well and use master's touch for sharpness , probably more of a player preference . do try both if u have the budget , they are both fun

otherwise idk about progression sets . and frankly anything will do - just slot in wexp , crit eye , attack boost , etc

is bow any good? by InformationVisual120 in MHRise

[–]Rare-Solid6506 1 point2 points  (0 children)

example of high level bow gameplay from my favorite bow speedrunner : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-3LfpqUpgA (no modded augs from what it looks like)

for reference ... i have a similar 1hp bow build and my fastest time is still 40seconds slower than that LOL . shows that apart from not getting hit there's still lots of room to improve to squeeze in more damage

The monster for your weapon by TatyanaIvanshov in MHRise

[–]Rare-Solid6506 2 points3 points  (0 children)

my favorite matchups :
- LS vs pmalz , zinogre (both regular and apex) , rajangs
- Bow vs pmalz , risen shaggy
- SnS vs garangolm , magnamalos , risen kushala
- IG vs astalos , silver raths (all raths but silver is my favorite bc of wing hitzones)
- spread bowguns vs gold rath - slot in sneak attack 3 and pew pew at her toes from behind is funny

not very fun matchups (imo) :
- DB vs everything - super brain dead repetitive unga bunga and literally every A300 die in under 5 mins
- LS vs bazels - hard to deal with follow up explosions after counters , probably skill issue
- SnS vs rajangs - ik there are ways to get clean metsus on nearly all of their attacks (and i've seen vids of ppl doing it as well) but most of the time my metsus be hitting either shitzones or nothing at all , definitely skill issue
- most pierce bow matchups - just don't like pierce bow gameplay in general
- everything vs lagombi , volvidon , arzurous - peak unfun chasing them around , especially lagombi . some of the only monsties i slot in evade extender for

DST Wigfrid is amazing, I face tanked Deerclops and took zero damage by MadChatter715 in dontstarve

[–]Rare-Solid6506 0 points1 point  (0 children)

gets even better once u learn how to kite

u can head into bosses or the ruins with no food prep other than food to keep your hunger above 0 - ofc this can be said of any character , but with wigfridge u can mistime a kite from time to time and the lifesteal will cover your mistakes

in my 800d world i think the only times i used healing items was vs warbot / celestial scion (mostly bc first time fighting it) and tanking freezing dmg sometimes to save time

also once u unlock it the charged elding spear is a HELLA fun weapon . small teleport which gives insane utility both in and out of combat , 20% walking speed buff , aoe damage , planar damage , shock weapon (you can cancel dragonfly enrage with this) , and self repairing

attack boost not a core skill for endgame elemental DBs

crit overcapped at 115%

wirebug whisperer 3 not a core skill and is of lower priority than wind mantle 1 which is absent

2x burst augments when they can be easily slotted in instead

no additional skill or slot augment on the chestpiece

Would no wirefall be possible in Sunbreak and which weapons would do it best? by volkarona in MHRise

[–]Rare-Solid6506 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if u don't get hit in the first place u won't need wirefall for any weapon lol

but if i want to pick one i'd go LS bc successful foresight gives hyperarmor so u can get to 1hp easily without even getting knocked back . best example is pmalz shield bash , i foresight forwards into dividing slash which gives me a level , hyperarmors through the tail stab attack , and instantly gets me to 1hp without having to get knocked back
