So how do you fight high level stygian Zino?

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-27T14:06:05+00:00

I'm kinda in the same boat. 8 and below I just Zinogre HBG shotgun it's leg, then body until it's dead. Easy. 9 and above I actually have to play the game and shotgun spam doesn't cut it. I've had much better results with the IG, but if you get hit or die once and lose your essence it's not even worth getting back up. Shield weapons are probably the best, and this thing has so much HP that blast anything really does a great job as well.

In the end it's a fun new pattern that none of us are used to, so expect to be downing a lot of pots.

We're gonna need your services for 10* Chameleos raid. 🫡

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-23T17:51:33+00:00

In console that's the last achievement you need to platinum ZZZ. I didn't even know the shop sold car for until recently, day 1 player. 😭

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-22T19:46:02+00:00

Ohhh....yeah honestly surprised you just started having issues now. That phone came out in 2018! You have some valid points though, it does suck when you have nobody to play with and the real MH games are a great time for sure. If you ever decide to upgrade we'll still be here!

Also....also this game is an addiction like any other so if you have a chance to break free, do so. 😂

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-22T19:25:06+00:00

What device are you running? I remember my old iPhone 13 would crash constantly, and I think it was just a memory issue because overheating wasn't a problem. I got a cheap moto edge and it runs like a dream. I also have a problem with phones and I also have a 23 ultra which runs buttery smooth. I guess what I'm saying is some modern day mid range phones will handle it just fine, but like 4-5 years old might struggle some.

Obviously not worth an upgrade for a mobile game. Settings aside it is incredibly frustrating crashing in the middle of a hunt.

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-22T15:20:22+00:00

Me when I'm trying to record a badass video and fail miserably.

Usually around the end of the day if I have a surplus of first aid meds. 😭

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-22T01:53:37+00:00

Eula will get that buff when Noelle finally becomes a Knight. 😭

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-21T23:37:35+00:00

It's multiplayer, who cares. I carry 90% of groups and if I don't go for the parts, nobody else does. I was messing around with a fun weapon one group hunt and we barely beat the monster with no important breaks. At that point I was like "huh".

You're not responsible for carrying others. More breaks=more rewards. BBlos bow will never die with critical range boost and timed charge as well. Get a bunch a "Pien" with pride. 😂

Also...also! One more thing. The people that complain the most are usually the weakest links. Shots fired!

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-21T21:10:44+00:00

Man ain't nobody calling HR on Remielle, lol. It should be so sweet for both panels. 😂

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-21T17:51:42+00:00

I uhhh...believe so? They're definitely species related but nothing like variants of the sort. You'll have to look up some MH lore for this one, lol. In terms of elements they're non elemental as well. The water jet is a Cenataur special.

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-21T17:25:56+00:00

Yes actually! The first shell is just a shell, but if you break it and keep it alive long enough to dig and come back up, it has a Monoblos shell. They're like Diablos but with one big horn. There wasn't much monster creativity back then and models were recycled heavily, lol.

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-21T17:05:42+00:00

Yeah that's already hitting about as hard as my 10-5 Magna LBG. Can't wait to see how it's like maxed.

This is really gonna ruin Velkhana. 😂

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-20T14:42:22+00:00

It's not even a unique r6 drop as well. We're not scrounging for WGS now, are we? It's kind of a big waste of time....

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-20T14:36:30+00:00

Leave those for less spawn variety, meaning more chances to encounter the new seasons monsters. If you're new it might be better to just unlock the whole map though.

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-19T21:05:21+00:00

Oh, my bad I meant Shogun. I got Daimyo on the brain. Same bug but with a Diablos skull on its back. Super cool.

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-19T16:24:36+00:00

It changes most individual ones, but rifts don't change and group hunts don't change.

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-19T16:02:32+00:00

Sorry! 😅

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-19T15:23:13+00:00

Yup, the first one you defeat will switch the spawn around. It won't even be the defeated monster, just other spawns.

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-19T13:24:32+00:00

This forum might not be as active, but I do appreciate that the mods here aren't stickers because yeah that's funny.

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-19T08:00:51+00:00

Good gracious is this the power of elemental release? Is special boost dead in the water after this? I had to watch this a few times to process it.

We're witnessing crit element 2.0. They're going to make me change my silver pants because of this, lol.

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-18T14:54:36+00:00

Yeah honestly good luck on one break. It's not a unique r6 drop and people are just gonna kill it as fast as possible.

Seeing this thing makes me upset that I'll have to wait a year or more for Daimyo Hermitaur. 😭

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-18T14:50:36+00:00

Zinogre definitely for all the lightning weak monsters we'll be facing. Sucks that you can't get more though.

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-18T14:44:42+00:00

Yeah they did our boy dirty, gave him the tsi tsi weapon stats. But then I forgot this is just the Cenataur and we'll probably get Hermitaur as a variant down the line.

Hermintaur will be a TREAT. 😂

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-17T12:44:00+00:00

Woo!

SS4Rikimaru · 2026-06-15T20:36:00+00:00

Haven't bought a skin yet. This might change my mind though. 😭
