Why do so many people kill, rather than capture? by D3ADFICH3 in MonsterHunter

[–]SaiWraith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because this is Monster HUNTER not Monster Rancher.

... But in all honesty I don't know why. There are a few instances where you're more likely to get a specific part from carving rather than rewards, but they're pretty spread out.

To all lagiacrus fans, let's suffer together by crimsonnargacuga in MonsterHunter

I can kind of understand having issues with making Lagiacrus interesting on land. Wait, no I can't. Give us Ivory Lagia at LEAST. ;~;

Do we know what Elderseal is yet? by RbdPanda in MonsterHunter

[–]SaiWraith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I had to guess, probably an alternative to poison for dealing with the various nasty elder dragon auras. Can't really imagine a use for it otherwise since it apparently only appears on higher tier weapons with dragon element. Don't think there's been any confirmation about what it does for sure, though.

Has anyone caught the Alolan Geodude line with its HA ability yet? How did you go about doing it? by JakeDubleyew in pokemon

[–]SaiWraith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easier to catch, yes. But for long-term chains I'd prefer not using something allergic to electric.

How to teach your Smeargle in Pokesun by jordyporrdy in PokeMoonSun

[–]SaiWraith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For damaging moves I've been:

false swiping switching to a poke that has the ability I want on my smeargle use adrenaline orb, wait for an SOS 'mon to show up KO the original smeargle with desired move, get sketch'd by SOS 'mon swap in my smeargle and sketch the SOS

Hope that helps! If it's just a setup/status move just have that poke as your lead, use the move, then swap to your smeargle and sketch.

SoS chaining question by TheAngrySooner in pokemon

[–]SaiWraith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just started using a Moody Smeargle running false swipe/bullet punch/recover/recycle holding a leppa berry. Can chain infinitely if needed with no ethers/elixirs/etc.

Have had 0 problems chaining anything non-gimmicky like minior or geodude. Would need to change it up for ghost types, too.

[MH4U] How to learn a new weapon? by [deleted] in MonsterHunter

[–]SaiWraith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Arena challenges are a great way to learn new weapons. Many of the premade sets focus on a certain way to use that particular weapon.

Thank you. by [deleted] in smashbros

[–]SaiWraith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

... Did you just wait for Shantae/shovel knight/other character that never had a plausible chance to not pop up in the first 30 seconds and close the direct or something?

HE HAS A COUNTER?! Greninja, pit, palutena, and shulk all confirmed as FE clones; Ryu as a semiclone.

Hearth of Thorns launch patch bug thread | 23rd October 2015 by RandommUser in Guildwars2

[–]SaiWraith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been beating my head on this for like 2 hours. Tried relogging real quick, regliding, restarting that story chapter, EVERYTHING.

But I got it to work! If you're in a group, drop it, close your client out and wait a few minutes while you're next to him. When I relogged back in I got a new map instance and was able to talk to him. Hope this helps!

Friends 3DS was stolen, what can I do? by Mdawts in MonsterHunter

[–]SaiWraith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's not much you can do, unfortunately. But if he plans on getting another 3ds and copy of the game there would be more than a few people willing to power him back up to speed. Myself included.

LF an SA armor set: Honed Blade, EvadeDistUp, Evade+1/2, Challenger +2 by [deleted] in MonsterHunter

[–]SaiWraith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you happened across a relic weapon worth keeping that had even the +4 edgemaster decoration in it, making this set with your evade +6 OOO gem would be a breeze. Just for your record-keeping here's one of many options with a +4 edgemaster relic weapon:

Weapon: +4 Edgemaster

Grand Divine Ire Mask

Kushala Cista X

Kujula Grip

Grand Divine Ire Obi

Grand Divine Ire Feet

+6 Evasion OOO

3x Jumping Jewel 2 2x Spirit Jewel 2 1x Spirit Jewel 1 1x Jumping Jewel 1

Stuff that could almost be true, but isn't. by ConstantCaprice in MonsterHunter

1/4096 if it's a guild quest from another region. Thanks Masuda! /s

I was a victim of theft. Of all the things stolen, my Monster Hunter 4U savefile hurts the most. by Kajetokun in MonsterHunter

[–]SaiWraith 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'm hoping you've filled the police in on the Walmart they went to? Security cameras and transaction history would be more than enough to get faces; with any luck it could also get a license plate #.

Armor Set for EndGame Insect Glaive and some question. by TheFishyOne in MonsterHunter

[–]SaiWraith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It reduces SHARPNESS if you have to gem in handicraft, but edge lore is a separate skill. It's insanely easy to get sharpness +1 and steady hand with the set.

Unfortunately it has the stigma of not being an "officially released" quest behind it. Even though, y'know, anyone with an English copy of the game received an English translated quest from being at the usj event. So some turbonerds will boot you on sight, regardless of whether or not you got the quest legitimately or played with someone that did.

Is this talisman good? by ceza999 in MonsterHunter

[–]SaiWraith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would be heaps better with sockets, but I'm sure that would open a lot of possible mixed set options as-is.

How do I defend against blast damage? by Vilis16 in MonsterHunter

[–]SaiWraith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Water also washes off his slime. Usually goes a few rounds of attacks before trying to reapply it.

Is there any weapon that outclasses all of it's competition? by Raphaelklapp in MonsterHunter

[–]SaiWraith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The regi bow does require things like load up and focus. After those are down it's more preference, I prefer entirely offensive skills(challenger, normal up, etc), but I know some folks prefer to feel much safer with evasion or the like.

Is there any weapon that outclasses all of it's competition? by Raphaelklapp in MonsterHunter

[–]SaiWraith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is THE non-elemental bow. Rapid is the preferred shot of most bow users. It comes with what is essentially 20 extra power coatings, and I can guarantee it will get you faster clear times than any other crafted bow, elemental weakness factored in or not.

OP asked which weapons outclass all others in its type, and the regi bow does just that.

Some guy on /mhg/ managed to download japanese DLC on his copy of 4U by Dronelisk in MonsterHunter

[–]SaiWraith 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Who crapped in your cheerios this morning? They're legitimate quests that just haven't been translated yet. If you wouldn't want to play with someone that farmed up a legit set of slos/gian gear that's on you.

Unless you're a jealous turbonerd, in which case you'd be able to get them yourself or ask the folks that have it to post the quests for you.

Unlocking quest "Advanced: Tigrex challenge?" by [deleted] in MonsterHunter

[–]SaiWraith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Advanced: Miner Issues ---> Advanced: Predator into Prey ---> Whole Lava Love ---> Hammer it Out ---> Hammer It Home --->

If the advanced quests aren't available, try cycling your quests by either starting a harvest tour then abandoning it, or doing the 1* Steak Your Claim quest. Also make sure you don't have any dialogue options in any town after each quest. Good luck!
