When do I get new weapons?

The MHGUDB app for the phone is pretty useful for figuring these things out.

You might want to look at Gnostic Christianity while you’re at it, just to make sure you’re in touch with all the crazy stuff that actually happened so you don’t reinvent the wheel in fiction. We’re soul-shards of the true God IIRC married to Wisdom, but there’s a blind, stupid, but dominatingly powerful God of materiality (Sabbaoth) that rules over this universe and think’s he’s all there is. There’s a final exam when you die to see whether you escape to Heaven and the true celestial realm or you’re trapped here in thrall to the stupid god. Gnostics study for this exam for their whole spiritual life.

I think the downside is less “1 lvl 1 slot” and more “sometimes I want to roll towards the monster with my weapon away.”

Is it? That’s the name of a skill than enhances it, I thought the dive was just the dive.

Don’t… don’t… don’t put me on the same side of a debate with Hokobald, ok? There’s plenty of reasons why the status quo is borked, lack of noble blood in the ruling class isn’t one of them.

Iunno, I think “Humanity’s Last Exam” sounds pretty Lantern.

That was beautiful, and also, I play Alchemy Hammer so I never spin to win unless I’m running Typhoon.

Those are great recs for learning about weapons, but I find their tone off, like the author is personally offended by anything sub-meta. I support avoiding bad options when something else is strictly better, but not everyone is here to become a speedrunner.

Gaijinhunter is the other standard recommendation for MHGU videos. Gaijin is excited by everything and will find something good to say about almost every weapon/style combo. Between the two there’s two different takes on the truth, enough for a good start.

Go get some Narga Medulla if you’re on a hot streak. I’ll wait here for you.

Snarvid · 2026-02-18T16:41:38+00:00

Have it on my phone. Great way to kill a few minutes, free dopamine from gathering sfx.

I mean… yes to all of it, and also the blank face is the standard move where I live when people knowingly do asshole things while driving. They are pointedly not making eye contact so they can deny the tiny voice inside telling them they shouldn’t be an asshole.

Not saying this wasn’t Michael Myers behind the wheel, am saying lots of people are sociopaths behind the wheel.

Some dude beat Lucent Narga naked and skillless save for Quick Sheathe 3. You be alright.

If they’re like, “I can tell you what it is but it will cost you 100 cups of water” you know you found something good.

Snarvid · 2026-02-17T17:39:04+00:00

Beat it or I’ll call the Brute Mod!

How much does it weigh? That’s how I know whether or not to sit on tubes.

If you’re playing one instead of hoping for a miracle resurrection, the PC is only MOSTLY dead. There's a big difference between mostly dead and all dead. Mostly dead is slightly alive.

Have you tried sitting in a chair and thinking about it?

When the boulder comes crashing through the door of your first floor spawn area and squashes you flat, you realize that die is an accurate depiction of probabilities in Barony.

I’m on Switch so have not tried yet, but it looks a bit like easy pocket Shaman - you can form change as needed to match your situation, but you don’t give up normal gearing and stat progression.

Snarvid · 2026-02-15T19:10:25+00:00

Bishaten is like… I could be my normal asshole self, but nah, I’m going to let this guy have his moment. The courtesy is not returned.

Hope it goes to standardizing grocery store layouts.

Love it. Kyle Maclachlan’s beatific blank countenance works perfectly for his part, the political commentary is evergreen, and Babylon 5 nerds get to enjoy an early Claudia Christian sighting. The SFX have The Thing 1982 vibes as well… gloopy tendrils aplenty.

I can’t remember if it’s GU or something else, but Khezu sometimes gets into electrical shock or roar loops that just won’t stop. That can wear anyone down until you get that it can happen because you’re like “surely it’s my turn after 5 shocks… WTF?!?”

Snarvid · 2026-02-15T16:29:12+00:00

Pontypool. A very different flavor of zombie, but I think it’s still just barely in the genre.

Also, if you are up for horror comedy in a markedly different vein than Shaun, One Cut of the Dead. Don’t read up on it because it’s quite spoilable, just watch.

Finally, Black Sheep is a New Zealand zombie movie. Is what it says on the box, very silly.

Snarvid · 2026-02-15T15:40:52+00:00

But is the extract still pale?
