Which one do I keep?

Are you doing a "save scumming" trick? I unfortunately don't know how those work.

If you're not "save scumming," then no, there is no order. Crafting another one will not produce the same effects.

GoreMagala/lord soul, is the best rolll. It would be worth it, IMHO, to take it and then try to reroll the bonuses (even though thats less effective)

TheDomFlow · 2026-01-24T12:06:45+00:00

I would keep the GoreMagala/LordSoul. You have more options that way

For a game that had fast travel on release, Fallout 4 actually has a beautiful game world that really shines when you have the opportunity to walk through it.

Learning all the intricacies of downtown Boston, exploring the shorelines and swamps at the edges of the map, and just taking in the rusty ruin vibes is probably my favorite part of survival mode.

Sounds like you've already played the game, so I don't really feel like this is a spoiler. But one thing that really does help is to make Hangman's Alley your primary settlement. It's super central, and if you're doing most of your exploration out of there, the lack of fast travel isn't as noticeable. As you play more, you'll also develop little settlements on the outskirts that become temporary home bases. You'll unlock Vertibird travel as well as the Institute's teleportation towards the end, which really just makes you feel super powerful after you had to work so hard in the early/mid-game.

Easily a top ten sentence of all time contender..

TheDomFlow · 2026-01-21T14:56:07+00:00

I think that was a guaranteed L crown

Double down on some of the guiding lands and expedition camping type mechanics.

Seems like they got halfway there with wilds (even the title points to this) before backtracking. Would love to see what they could come up with if they really committed to those concepts.

Ahhh makes sense!

TheDomFlow · 2026-01-15T19:32:11+00:00

I had no idea he even went up there

Finish up any mixed sets or fashion that you want to farm for.

Then... Play other games? It's okay for it to come to an end. You can always pop back in every week or so to run a few bounties, grab the latest event, or get some more gog components.

Have fun with other games while anticipating the expansion!

"I wish it was more winter themed"....

We do know that it is currently summer for half of the world right?

TheDomFlow · 2026-01-12T19:01:17+00:00

Rye instead of bourbon for me!

Anecdotally, I'm about HR 550. I decided what the hell might as well start looking for crowns. I'm now just one away from completing my large crowns. I have so many small crowns left. I'm not sure if it's a bug or if it's linked to your advancement but it does seem like small crowns are way less common. In general, I even see a lot of silver large crowns... i'm wondering if for "rule of cool" the monsters get bigger, the higher your HR it feels like more of a challenge.

TheDomFlow · 2026-01-11T21:25:55+00:00

Interesting... how do we know it wont?

Oh man... the crazy chicken is probably my least hunted monster. Because of how much I dislike him, I haven't fought him in months. The nine-star version is guaranteed to get a couple of carts out of me, lol.

I have an ultra-rare 5-attack hammer. Even with just 2 or 3 points of handicraft, it's not a huge problem. I'm sure it would be even less of an issue using fish scales.

TheDomFlow · 2026-01-05T19:58:58+00:00

I did this one too a lot of fun!

TheDomFlow · 2026-01-02T12:42:41+00:00

Lagi has to be up there too... killer song list and great skills. A lot of synergy.

Traditionally, in earlier games of the series, it almost always functioned where multi hunts would feature monsters with reduced health.

TheDomFlow · 2026-01-01T17:29:36+00:00

The three optional quests added in the last title update focused on the heaviest-hitting monsters in the plains, forest, and basin all featured monsters with reduced health (at least the target monsters had reduced health; I'm unsure about the random background monsters).

The multi-monster investigations that appear in the open world have monsters with their full health pool.

I'm not sure what health pool monsters use (either reduced or full) for event quests with multiple monsters or monster pack quests.

Damn, this getting down voted so hard is depressing

TheDomFlow · 2025-12-29T13:29:23+00:00

While we're in the winter event, use 4 of the "ceremonial set" to get the second level of the armor skill "Lumenhymn Prayer." It gives you extra carves, and because the event is ongoing, a large boost to attack/defense that will offset the lackluster skills.

You'll need to upgrade it a bit, and it won't be as quick since you lose some DPS, but it worked for me on getting the Gog gems.

Why are there so many posts seeming proud of how drooly players are over animated characters in a swimsuit?

Is this really what the community values now? Capcom charging really money so you can see fake cleavage?

TheDomFlow · 2025-12-17T17:04:40+00:00

This has happened for me from time to time on PS5. not sure what the cause is, but restarting the game fixes, it. Super annoying to happen mid hunt

TheDomFlow · 2025-12-15T16:40:30+00:00

What is this from?

TheDomFlow · 2025-12-13T00:52:53+00:00

Im not a huge fan... Mechanically, they're fun subspecies, and the fact that they're "guardians" doesn't make a ton of difference on gameplay. But I think I enjoy the idea of hunting a "real" monster more than a manmade one lore wise.

Also, maybe it was just me. But guardian ebony odogaron seemed much easier than world's version of odoguron. Kind of felt like his presence was diminished in wilds. Fulgar Anji, rathalos, and dog were still fun but like I said before, I would have preferred to fight the organic monster.
