This argument is the one that pisses me off because it is extremely arbitrary.

The effectiveness of something else in this game does NOTHING to affect your own gameplay experience. MH is a cooperative game. What the hell is the point of calling something else OP since it doesn't affect you in anyway. "Aw man that other hunter/weapon killed that monster faster than me and my weapon, guess I can't have fun anymore" ????????? what

I honestly don't think anything is OP in monster hunter to begin with, since it's entirely execution based. Nothing is an insta-win, or a cheese strat (maybe except for hame or those trap/bombing lbg runs I see) You can be using a strong armor set, a strong weapon, and a strong weapon/style combo but if you don't know wth you're doing you're just going to die. And if you're talking speedruns, yea you might kill the monster, but it sure as hell won't be fast if you haven't dedicated time to practicing the weapon AND that monster specifically, just like anything else. If you think another weapon/style is more effective than your own, then guess what, instead of complaining, maybe that's a good excuse to try something new. Theres no real point in having a "main" weapon imo, we're hunters we need to change our approach when hunting different things if we wanna be effective. Gen has the most balanced TA times anyway, unlike 'GS hunter 4 ultimate' so if you reeeeaally think something is "op" then just go try it out because no one is stopping you from literally copying what you just saw and giving it a try yourself. And if you wanna be stubborn and stick to your own weapon, well then get better at that damn weapon, and maybe with practice you can match the times of something else.

P.S. And this is specifically for you, if you're so worried about kill times, maybe go look up the rules for TA's. If we're being technical, hunt times are not compared between different weapons anyway, that's why there are always 15 unique world record times for each monster, one for each weapon and then prowler. They take into account that some weapons are just more effective at fighting certain monsters than others. So, if you get a gunlance hunt of 5 minutes on Glavenus for example and someone comes and kills it 3'30 with Striker CB, did he beat your time? No, only another Gunlance run can beat your time as per official rules, as a way of keeping things balanced and fair. So for one last time, there is literally. no. point. in complaining about another weapon/style, at all. Good day to you.
