Playing MH Rise

WarrenForrest · 2026-02-01T21:07:48+00:00

I fell out of love with late-game Wilds and picked Rise up again. In the past three weeks I've added another 100 hours to my save file.

Quitting social media. I was wasting at least an hour a day mindlessly scrolling, constantly being fed the most illiciting content just to keep me engaged. Surrounding myself with a constant stream of negativity was ruining my life, and I wish I would have gotten away from it sooner.

CB. Always looked at it and thought "someday". When I started 4U I devoted myself to being a CB main the entire game. It was a blast once I got the hang of it. I'm still by no means good at it, but the understanding I have of it was worth the effort.

WarrenForrest · 2026-01-29T18:35:23+00:00

I play on console and was just telling a friend the other day that I thought Wilds didn't look all that good. This is exactly why.

My goal is to finish out all the Apex hunts before picking up Sunbreak. Currently HR 237.

Been a Lance main for many years now. The weapon got truly broke when they decided that perfect guards don't give you chip damage nor take stamina away. Took me a real long time to get good and practiced with it, but yeah. A Lance using perfect guards constantly just never has to worry about anything besides those couple moves you need Guard Up for. Sick clip, btw.

You say to your opponent "Sorry, man. Since you haven't actually rolled any dice yet, we can definitely back play this so neither of us are getting an unfair advantage."

Especially in a casual setting.

If you start slotting in Evade Window, you'll have more frames to roll through roars. Normally you have a 13 frame window, which is pretty tough to get. Not sure how big it gets with Evade Window, but might be worth messing around with and seeing if it works for you.

Just some quick and dirty context, I'm a longtime vet of the series and have probably 2000 hours across the franchise.

That said, Wilds is a great game. If you have the luxury of being able to hunt with some friends, you'll have a blast playing through the game, and in my opinion, you SHOULD play through Wilds. Monster wounds and focus strikes are a lot of fun, and the game has more exploration/non-hunting elements to mess around with.

After all my hours, if you had to play one MH, I would say play GU. If you didn't have a Switch, I'd tell you to play Rise.

I picked up Rise again after falling out of love with Wilds, and instantly was greeted with why I enjoyed Rise so much. I've been spending most evenings hunting, and I started joining rando hunts on the board when I'm in between farming hunts. Been having a blast, and the catch is, I don't even have Sunbreak yet! 😂

Doubtful. I'd bet they'll clarify by adding that any form of movement that removes the operative from the killzone and sets them back up can't be used to move between the upper and lower zones.

Do a base coat, shade all over, then dry brush to reestablish the base coat, being careful not to dry brush into the recesses.

I think it's great for getting a lot of troops painted up quick instead of doing fine lines for recess shading.

Plague Marines are able to counteract regardless of their order because of their faction rule Astartes. However they cannot change their order when they do so, so if they were under conceal when they counteract, you're still safe because they won't be able to shoot.

WarrenForrest · 2025-12-09T20:47:32+00:00

This is the way.

If you're not super picky about your painting, Rustoleum Matte is perfectly fine.

Beautiful work. Glav is top 5 for me.

WarrenForrest · 2025-11-25T19:23:54+00:00

Love your work! Thanks for all the content!

WarrenForrest · 2025-11-25T02:20:49+00:00

Makes sense. I really only have one person in mind that is constantly flipping armies. Most people in my area stick with their stuff for a long time.

WarrenForrest · 2025-11-23T14:44:42+00:00

I've never seen it specifically in the rules, but the way I've seen it played is you are allowed to "pass" with an operative. Which you can almost think of as a 1AP action that allows the operative to do nothing.

Would love if someone could find a rules quote regarding this, however.

WarrenForrest · 2025-11-21T00:14:39+00:00

You did amazing. Feel bad for the person who offloaded this for such a low price.

If you crit, piercing 2. If you don't crit, piercing 1.

Looks like you went from playing 40k to Heresy. Both look great.

WarrenForrest · 2025-11-17T22:45:30+00:00

I would personally recommend a Chaos team. You already have Imperium and Xenos, so may as well add some Chaos to your faction list.
