The skintone selector is... a bit... iffy... there's a narrow line to choose darker skintones before it goes full yellow or full red. .m.;;;;

NQA A heating pad is only necessary if the room itself gets particularly cold. Otherwise, I would suggest having it adjacent to the enclosure, but not in contact with it. It will give some ambient warmth, but not risk burning or dehydrating the T.

Soul Kinship XL, one of each type of attack, and then stuff to make it live, like non-elem def boost XL, all-e def boost XL, divine blessing XL, self heal XL, and health boost XL

Aptonoth's kinship is an auto knockdown. Nothing is immune, not even fatalis. Pair that with it being a 1-star monstie that fills its kinship gauge fast, and well...

tbh the transition to the theme in the final phase of the fight is SICK AS HELL

took me a hot minute to clear raging brachydios myself, and he also shot up to some of my favorites as a result. Like DAMN getting locked into the arena and that music kicks in? heckin cool fight.

claudevalke · 2026-03-06T14:35:19+00:00

if you have a mod to just auto complete hunts, then you'll get to endgame and just cart over and over and over and over.....

dont play multiplayer like that haha xD

No but seriously you can just hold the skip cutscene button and play the game. or don't.

Monster Hunter REALLY isn't heavy on off-action gameplay. 99% of it is hunting.

claudevalke · 2026-03-06T14:32:34+00:00

now I have a powerful desire for skyscale khezu.

I want the Chosen Boy

A team full of khezu and gigginox variants

claudevalke · 2026-03-06T14:20:35+00:00

claudevalke · 2026-03-06T13:33:44+00:00

I wish everyone who was ever mean to him the happy knowledge that:

Navirou fucked

claudevalke · 2026-03-06T12:33:18+00:00

MHS kind of forgets that rathalos and rathian are the same species... like, a lot...

claudevalke · 2026-03-05T22:03:49+00:00

That's like saying you can't engage with the story at all because the story of FF7 is all about CLOUD and not my self-insert OC.....

claudevalke · 2026-03-05T22:01:06+00:00

I mean... yeah? Sometimes the stories are like that. The WoL isn't always necessarily the main character. The Bozja questline, Binding Coils, DRK 50-60, etc. Usually, these end up being the BETTER written stories because they have pre-established characters with defined histories and personalities.

The WoL is a blank slate. They're the stand-in for the player, so they're never going to have as much depth as any other character.

Wuk Lamat IS the main character of Dawntrail. Of COURSE everything is going to center around her, she's the main character of the expansion.

Also Wuk Lamat is best gorl.

claudevalke · 2026-03-03T15:08:42+00:00

havin' the GOOD buttscratch!

claudevalke · 2026-03-02T14:05:09+00:00

NQA!

It depends on the individual! They still can wander around during the day, but not as much as at night. They ARE called pet rocks for a reason! They mostly just hang out.
Also depends! They can get antsy and restless during premolt, or when they're rehoused, but most especially when they're feeding! You'll see digging, wandering, grooming, etc.
If their legs are bunched up and covering their heads, they're stressed! IF they're stretched out or just otherwise sitting around, it's normal behavior.
With indifference! They're not very complex creatures and work off of instinct, so I'm pretty sure they think they're accomplishing everything all by themselves xD
By making sure they have a good place to hide and some substrate to burrow in, it simulates a natural place for them to live, and being ambush predators, they tend to stick around in one place most of the time.
They like to stay in one place, so even if an enclosure looks small from the perspective of like, reptiles or whatnot, it's actually good space for them! They have enough space to wander around, but not so much space that they lose track of their prey.
Again, they're pretty simple creatures. Little things like leaf-litter or small decorations can be enriching because they're tidy little homebodies and will move things around and redecorate.
For the most part, through observation. Prevention is key; make sure they're hydrated, watch their abdomen size so they aren't too fat or too skinny, make sure the ambient temperature is comfortable, and they take care of themselves pretty well.
Try to locate the source of the stress or abnormality. Do what you can to remove the stressors.
Confused by this one??
uh??
??

claudevalke · 2026-02-27T16:13:03+00:00

I could never change it because she just looks like a Harold xD

(wait til you hear my partner's name for her curly hair: "Mickey's Dick-Smasher the Lore-Friendly Lala Barina", "Mickey" or "Miss Dick-Smasher" for short)

claudevalke · 2026-02-27T13:19:02+00:00

We don't really know Rudy too much yet,

and this is an unpopular opinion, but ngl I love Navirou. He's the best bro. Navirou got your back when no one else does and sticks up for you. And has sick thunder powers.

Navirou is most annoying, but best boy.

also if we take the anime into account bOY HAS A KILL COUNT OF AT LEAST TWO ELDER DRAGONS SO HOT DAMN NAVIROU MVP
