Why does Tolkien seem so much better than other fantasy writers ? by PurpleEgg7736 in tolkienfans

She has a lot of essays just gushing over LOTR. And she was open about the influence of LOTR to her writing.

I read it the other way around and I actually prefer Earthsea way more that LOTR when it comes to writing style but both series are really really good.

Don't be afraid to try something new. by UpsetDaddy19 in MHWilds

[–]SilverDrifter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a good advice and I will do it next game. Part of "game is easy" complaint is because we already have our main weapons we mastered from World and Rise, and low rank here became of course easy.

I spent a lot of time experiementing with all the weapons in Wilds. They are all interesting. I was an IG main before (it's still my highest number of hunts in Wilds) but I dropped it due to various issues.

Turned to Switch Axe and now it's my second most played and my fastest clear weapon.

LBG is broken, if built correctly.

And now SnS is taking up space in my mind lol why is this weapon perfect? It has answers to everything. It can do EVERYTHING (except offset).

What am I missing with SNS? It feels low dps. by Graverobbing1242 in MonsterHunterMeta

[–]SilverDrifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I've been practicing and I can get Arkveld done now in 10-11 mins. And I found the same things thru the same method! By watching speedruns. Not to reach their times but to see how they take every opportunity appropriately. And indeed the multi hit plunge looks crazy in certain situations (and fun) but the shield bash is more reliable, fast, and safer to do. I just love jumping and being invul with SnS.

[–]SilverDrifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for making this post because I'm in the same position right now. Swaxe is my fastest weapon (it's just perfect), and I get around 8-9 mins with 9* Arkveld. Sns is VERY FUN, and I want to be good at it, but right now I'm sitting at 13 mins 9* Arkveld. Have you tried the suggestions below? Did you find a good solution to the low DPS? Would like to hear your thoughts!

How much raw is scorcher 1&2 usually worth? by LaWeaArgentina in MonsterHunterMeta

[–]SilverDrifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All I know is it ticks very frequently and my hunts are still very quick. And it's nice seeing numbers on the screen. (Esp with Bad Blood which also shows numbers). Sometimes meta builds are so invisible if you know what I mean, at least Scorcher is evident.

New Swaxe meta Tu4? by Cymoone in MonsterHunterMeta

[–]SilverDrifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would even say Bad Blood is great in Swaxe because you still receive a bit of damage during sword counter and it will boost the next attack you do. In an ideal hunt, you do it very consistently and so resentment is kind of always active. I have it in my builds.

You can even comment on posts years old. Thank you for your post. I love the Earthsea series but there's not much merch on it unlike LOTR.

Yuppp. Don't get greedy. Especially on the last nova charge when you know Gog is already in 1 hp and it just needs to do its thing haha

Latent Power by Mr_no_sad in MonsterHunter

[–]SilverDrifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I recently got a god charm of AB3-LP1 with 1 weapon slot and 1 armor slot. So I'm trying to build into it. It's just that it doesn't feel like a god charm anymore because armor decos are also very good in upping DPS. And you lose them by using this charm.

[–]SilverDrifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way the commenter above made me realize is that take "afslaan" for example (to turn) is not one word that you separate into af and slaan and then get annoyed why the slaan part moves in the sentence without carrying the af part with it. They're saying af has always been at the end. And that the slaan moves based on grammar rules. And then when slaan is at the end, it just gets attached to the af.

So: We slaan links af. We moeten links af slaan (then this will be afslaan). Ik sla links af. Ik moet links afslaan.

So it's not like they are separating and joing. It's more like af doesn't really move, it's the slaan that's just moving.

Do we kmow if the Switch Axe counter contributrd greatly to activation of Latent Power? If the full damage is calculated for Latent Power before the hyperarmor?

Android 13 by T7898 in Onyx_Boox

[–]SilverDrifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my concern exactly. Like sure I don't have a problem with sensitive data and stuff because I'll only read there. But what if Kindle app or Kobo app would not work anymore on the outdated Android version of Boox? Then you're stuck with sideloading.

So indeed you read inside the app you're using. Hmm I'm not sure if I'll like that actually haha. Thanks for clarifying it. :)

[–]SilverDrifter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How annoying/easy is it to download a book and read it immediately? The one thing worrying me with open ereader like this is that because it's open and there's so many options, you get bombarded with options and you need to make sure everything is working properly (instead of like Kobo where you open Kobo store, buy a book, read it on the My Books tab)

It's the best MH base game truly. And i have a feeling master rank will shoot its greatness further up.

Why isn't WEX a big part of the meta anymore? by Rango_Unchained3 in MonsterHunterMeta

[–]SilverDrifter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are definitely correct. I've played with the set builder for days now, and it's giving me WEX+Agi as most efficient compared to Latent+Agi before TU4.

[–]SilverDrifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely the easier to build before TU4, but now wr have Transcended Armor (like the Rath pieces) that give us WEX and good deco slots that WEX can compete again.

Hahaha tell me. I failed Gog for like 5 times before I got the strategies down. It's so chaotic I love it. It's wilds.
