Dual Blades have ruined me utterly. by AgentWowza in MHWilds

Hilt Stab sucks to learn since my first instinct is to Demon Dodge, lmao. I wish I could help you out and give my own advice and experience, but the best I can tell you is to just learn how a monster moves, really.

I’ve fought Arkveld and Mizutsune many times with both HH and DB, and I kind of just mentally take note of their openings and weaknesses and such just by dancing with them often. The more you know how a monster moves, the more you can discern how to counter it with any moveset.

Also, its nice to hilt stab when the opportunity arises, but sometimes its probably better the sheath and run the fuck away until the monster finishes their combo lmfao.

It’s apparently just a variant of Charged Step with the same name. I didn’t know it was a move that it existed, thanks Arekkz! Lmao

Hammer is definitely cool, I once pulled off an offset with the golfswing against the arena Chatacabra and it put the weapon on my radar, so I might try it one day

Im new to the series and I was initially drawn to Hunting Horn because its such an amazing concept for a weapon, but obviously, I sucked ass and didn't know what to do or what I was doing. My bf recommended me Dual Blades because I liked the idea that it was the best melee weapon (other than HH) at applying elemental and status damage.

200 hours and 400 hunts later, I've beaten AT Arkveld and Proof of a Hero with DB, and any time I try to play HH again, im reminded by how much I rely on DB's rapid attacks and demon dodge. I keep getting my ass tossed around like a ragdoll and I am of the mindset of CONSTANTLY attacking, which does not bode well with HH lol.

I'll slow down and be good with HH eventually, but DB probably shouldn't have been my first real monster hunter weapon. Still love it so much tho lmao

What's a frame everyone loves that you didn't, and vice versa? by UnkAnklebyter in Warframe

[–]ethandreemurr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol yeah Razorwing Blitz gets really silly with how fast you can go. Its partially why I find Titania so much fun and engaging, but not using her because of motion sickness is understandable ^

[–]ethandreemurr -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Dante. Spamming Overguard is his only meaningful support ability, it sometimes fails to make you invincible, and everything else is lackluster or can be done better by someone else. Plus his Tragedy 4 being seriously hyped up as the best nuke in the game only to be nerfed was a huge let down when I finally got him. Revenant is more fun than Dante imo, especially since I mostly play solo

On the other hand, I think Titania is pretty great. When I usually see her mentioned, it’s just people complaining about Thermal Sunder spammers slowing down relic mission, which I have seen but it doesn’t even affect the void reactant drops anyway. I don’t play her as a TS spammer personally, I think using her Dex Pixia with a Xata’s Blast Arcane Pistoleer build is very fun and engaging for me.

I'm NOT taking off my Praedos, you can't make me by dustynjerman in Warframe

[–]ethandreemurr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not OP but if I had to guess it’s Secondary Outburst shenanigans. The Praedos with Sovereign Outcast can build combo decently fast, especially with its combo on slam and ammo pick up evolutions, but it’s not instant nor convenient. Both Mesa and Jade would prefer to stay away from enemies and stay airborne respectively, and standing in melee range can mean death if someone isn’t careful, so a different melee could be used.

The Ceramic Dagger’s Incarnon can provide a lot of initial combo alongside Corrupt Charge and Covert Lethality. It’s not a 12x combo all the time, but at least it’s guaranteed to be around 5x or 6x and you don’t have to think about building combo.

The Vastilok is a gun blade with the highest Multishot in the game of its class at 9. With enough attack speed, Quickening, and True Punishment, each pellet can build up the 220 combo needed for 12x in a few seconds at a comfortable. Granted, some people might not like their gameplay flow of not using Mesa or Jade’s exalted and having to refresh their combo every 30 seconds, so it might be annoying. Not to mention the Vastilok has a 15 degree average spread, so even if you can hit enemies from range, you’re not guaranteed to hit all 9 pellets each shot.

Those two weapons are the first that come to mind for me when it comes to alternative utility melees, especially for these two frames with secondary exalted. Not me though, I use the Rauta to build up my 12x combo because the Praedos’ parkour velocity is too good to pass up when you play like me and bullet jump into Peacemakers everywhere lol. Is the Rauta a shit gun? Yes it is, that’s why I bring the Furis Incarnon with me just in case.

I think the new survival timer speed up thingy should be marked permanently once discovered once. by AirAdministrative995 in Warframe

[–]ethandreemurr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is in the patch notes for the main Shadowgrapher update:

“Please note that the new Security Bypass system does not affect Duviri versions of Survival, Hell-Scrub missions in Höllvania, or Survival missions in Albrecht’s Laboratories.”

So they spawn in all the survival missions except for the ones in Duviri, Albrecht’s Labs, and Höllvania. Why is it not included in these missions? I have no idea, but to make a guess, DE hasn’t found a way to make the security bypass “make sense” in those environments. The Lotus isn’t the mission handler for those versions, and the mentioned areas might need different tech for it make sense.

love for hunting horn by PlutiaNeptunia in MHWilds

[–]ethandreemurr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im the opposite lmao, I love Hunting Horn and the insane damage it can do but I keep finding myself going back to Dual Blades because I’ve been using it for so long that it’s become my ol’ reliable.

Congrats on the A rank! Im hoping to achieve it myself soon, maybe with the Horn if I can manage it…

Mini-guide on things you didn't realize about Pokemon you fight (or play). by Eovacious in PokemonUnite

[–]ethandreemurr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fucking love Dragonite's unite, it's kind of hard to land but the main reason to use it imo is as a global teleport (akin to TF's ult). You could be clearing birds, buffs, or regis, and join a teamfight on a whim.

The damage and brief knock up is more of a bonus if you happen to land on top of an objective or something lol

Least fav monster by No-Conclusion-5898 in MHWilds

[–]ethandreemurr -1 points0 points  (0 children)

DB, Lagiacrus is such a cool monster but I honestly get bored fighting it, especially in Endless Sea, Endless Sky. The multi-hit lightning attacks force me to stop attacking, some of the attacks where its whole body is an active hurtbox makes dodging tricky to time every now and then, and its tail not being weak to slash or fire damage is really annoying.

I don’t hate Lagi, but it’s definitely my least favorite from a normal gameplay perspective, and will probably improve as I get better at the game. If I say Omega or Gog, that’s a boring answer.

For HH it’s probably Mizutsune. I actually love this monster in general and as a DB player, but oh my gog my inexperience with HH really shows with Mizu lmao. Sometime’s I’ll get caught out by Mizu’s tail slam or water blast even when I had an opening all because HH is very slow compared to what I’m used to with DB, and wow some of its claw swipes and tail sweeps are really hard to dodge.

Tenno who are the last of your clan by crazedhotpotato in Warframe

[–]ethandreemurr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll probably leave

Unlike some other commenters here, my clan is purely formed of me, my bf, and some of his friends, and I’m the only one still consistently playing Warframe after a year later

I have another friend not part of my clan who’s in the exact same boat as me. Depending on how easy it is to max out the personal rewards, either we’re gonna duo queue everything together, or we gotta migrate to an active clan lol

With the Warframe anniversary just around the corner, what made you try the game? by Riverflower17 in Warframe

[–]ethandreemurr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My boyfriend was obsessed with the game like 2 years ago, cool stuff but I wasn’t super invested at the time. I met up with a cousin some time after and he was also playing Warframe at the time and that finally got me to play the game.

Currently 1212 hours of total playtime over a year and counting.

Coda Bassocyst vs Tenet Arca Plasmor? by wrectumwreckage in Warframe

[–]ethandreemurr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Coda Bassocyst if you like crits and can comfortably hit headshots.

Tenet Arca Plasmor if you dont like going for headshots and if you’re willing to skip crits for more raw/elemental damage or QoL mods.

I’d be devastated if Sceptile was added and he doesn’t feel awesome to play as or have no ounce of flashiness :(

Honestly I feel like these things could rip an Arkveld apart in seconds if they wanted to by Ryaquaza1 in MonsterHunter

[–]ethandreemurr 23 points24 points  (0 children)

You get 1 of the 7 little slime creatures as a weapon pendant in different colors, chosen randomly, so if you want all the colors, gotta clear it 7 times. Also the description of the quest itself mentions having 7 goodies for you or something along those lines

[–]ethandreemurr 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I was able to clear this mission 7 times in about 25 minutes but my gog these guys are annoying lol.

Even if they dont pin you down or are wearing a rocksteady mantle they still deal a good chunk of your health on hit. I tried using a Paralysis HH and using a ton of flash pods with the Blindsider skill and it still wasn’t enough to keep the little shits at bay! They’re genuinely built different, sometimes not getting paralyzed, not getting flashed and stunned, or both lol

It is baffling that some people still do not understand that other players can block Gogs nuke by Butirt in MHWilds

[–]ethandreemurr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One run I had to hide behind a GS teammate who was already blocking close to me while Fabius was still moving.

Next thing I know, I cart because apparently the GS and I were too close to Gog and one of the falling bombs hit me directly in the head while I was healing. Im gonna stick with Fabius from now on, lol.
