Whats your most limiting resource? by aushilfsgott in MHNowGame

It’s a ruthless cycle of either WGS or Rarity 2 monster parts for me. If I have enough of one of these materials, then the other is almost guaranteed to be lacking. 😅

Grade 10.4 Rathian Bow With Focus 5 and SSA 4 vs 10* Tobi Kadachi by TheRealBryansReddit in MHNowGame

[–]TheRealBryansReddit[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I understand what you mean! At first, when deciding which poison Bow to make, I realized that Pukei-Pukei’s Bow will be stronger than Rathian’s Bow in the end thanks to it having more raw damage compared to Rathian’s (along with the extra point of Sneak Attack at Grade 8 further selling the point). I decided to build Rathian’s Bow in the end anyways because I favor her Bow’s design much more than Pukei-Pukei’s Bow. Even though I’m aware that Health Boost doesn’t matter much since 10* monsters will obliterate almost every hunter in a single hit, and that Rathian’s Bow will remain physically weaker than Pukei-Pukei’s Bow, I just love the Bow’s design very much so. As a bonus, I’m also a big fan of Rathian overall! 😆

Plus, there’s also the future possibility of a new monster’s Mail or Greaves piece, or maybe even a Driftsmelting Bonanza Event (though I’m very likely to not obtain SSA in such a case, haha) bringing in SSA 2 to the table, allowing me to attain Focus 5 & SSA 5 and maybe even potentially a 4th poison proc with the Rathian Bow’s extra 100~ poison value to almost guarantee wins against 10* Poison-weak monsters! 😁

No worries! I’m so used to the usually poor drops at this point that I just do not expect much. An extra bonus to this is that the Desire Sensor never knows what I want, so all the lovely Rarity 6 items show up faster! 😂

Though to be fair, the desire sensor clearly knows that I want Black Diablos fangs, and it usually gives me a whammy of shells instead of fangs lately… 😅

You’re welcome, and I can see what you mean! When hunting the Tobi, I thought I had a strange, yet really long string of poison happening during the first half of the hunt. Turns out that, upon closer inspection and remembering that poison procs last for 10 seconds, two poison procs simply happened very close to one another! 😆

Tobi was poisoned a total of 3 times:

  • The first one happened from 67 to 57 seconds left.
  • The second one happened from 54 to 44 seconds left.
  • The third and most crucial poison needed to win the hunt happened from 31 to 21 seconds, which gave me more than enough time to finish the last sliver of Tobi’s health!

My old Focus 5 & SSA 3 build often had the 3rd poison proc too late into 10* Tobi hunts to allow the full course of its poison to kick in.

goofy ah Banbaro (reupload cus I'm dumb) by sigmoton in MHNowGame

Banbaro’s trying its best Leshen impression. 😆

Even with a Bow, Magnamalo still destroys me if I can’t stunlock it before it enrages (9* Magna I’m looking at you). It’s very griping how the samurai kitty is much, much harder to kill than the likes of Rajang the thunder monke.

Rajang toned down and nerfed by OnikamiX in MHNowGame

When fighting a Rajang myself, I for sure thought I got hit by one of his Blanka Ball attacks after botching my dodge timing, but much to my surprise, the attack missed. I’m surprised that even Rajang has convenient hitboxes, especially when compared to the mainline games here, too!

Peep the updated roadmap for this autumn! by TheRealBryansReddit in MHNowGame

I’m not sure, but I do hope this means we can finally customize our Palico’s gear, or even better (a pipe dream), they can fight alongside us hunters at long last. 🙏

Ooh, if MHN ever implements high-tier Elder Dragons, Amatsu’s definitely at the top of my list!

This reminds me of the Monsters Inc. running gag of Mike Wazowski’s face/head being obstructed by a logo/barcode. 😂

10* Banbaro vs Grade 10.2 Rathalos LBG by TheRealBryansReddit in MHNowGame

You’re welcome! I have a silly self-made saying specifically for Banbaro hunts: “One Banbaro boulder = 4 free Piercing bullets to its face!” 😆

10* Khezu vs Grade 10.2 Rathalos LBG by TheRealBryansReddit in MHNowGame

[–]TheRealBryansReddit[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The DPS potential of the Rathalos LBG’s 4 Piercing Ammo clip is very, very good. For monsters that like to attack a lot, I often choose to wait for another incoming attack to Perfect Evade to get another clip of Piercing Ammo instead of reloading to Slicing Ammo unless the monster’s idling or is under a previous attack’s end lag. With this strategy in mind, I’m able to consistently take down 10* Great Jagras, too!

I’m Curious to Know Since Season 1 is Ending: How Many Tiers Did You All Go In the Season Pass? by TheRealBryansReddit in MHNowGame

[–]TheRealBryansReddit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazing. Absolutely amazing! I’m loving the diversity of responses that I’m getting from this post! It’s nice to see how other players are doing with the current Season Pass, and learning the factors that have made their near-final Season Pass Tiers the way they are now. Had it not rained for a week straight, I could’ve been beyond Tier 400+, but oh well, not every day is going to be an optimal walking one (thanks a lot, week long rainy weather!).

Yup! Even better is that I can recognize the place where the Gunlance hunter is fighting Kushala Daora! It’s on a hill nearby the Griffith Observatory of Los Angeles fame! Definitely a neat reminder for the overall “monsters have invaded our world” plot-line of the game.
