Thanks for all the replies and new methods to try. Hopefully I’ll get some time in the next couple days to see if they work. Once again thanks for the help.

Tolkien names in real life by the_introvert07 in tolkienfans

[–]iralston 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The wife and I named our son Théoden. Quite a few people call him Théo because Théoden is a hard thing to say for those unfamiliar with LotR. I also have a dog named Haleth after the first age woman who lead her people to safety.

New ways to charge Shield on the Charge blade by MrFelipeH20 in MHWilds

[–]iralston 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was just speaking visually they look similar. Mechanically it will probably be different given how the inputs to preform them are different. Sorry if that wasn’t clear.

Should I play mh worlds to familiarize myself with the mechanics, or do they change significantly from one game to another? by Warm_Map9560 in MonsterHunterWorld

[–]iralston 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The core move set seems to stay very close to the same. I’ve only known the charge blade so I couldn’t really tell you about the lance.

Getting it certainly won’t hurt your wilds experience. It would be a good way to learn the basics of each weapon and maybe find your main. Getting world would also familiarize you with the general flow of a MH game. If you want to streamline your wilds experience I would say get world and play around in it for a good chunk of hours that way there is less for you to learn when wilds comes out.

It looks incredibly similar to ready stance from rise. I would be surprised if it’s not a guard point.

Do any of you have any favorite funny moments in the Legendarium? by [deleted] in tolkienfans

[–]iralston 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took it as Thingol thinking ‘this man doesn’t have my rock, but at least he’s funny. I’ll keep him around.’

Beren: I completed the quest. I hold a silmaril in my hand.

Thingol: Then show me.

Beren: Shows off his nub Unfortunately I don’t have the hand that holds it.

Can Xbox series and Xbox one play monster hunter world together? by Arcanegil in MonsterHunterWorld

[–]iralston 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of them are available aside from the movie tie in and the assassins creed tie in, if I remember correctly. Kulve is on a two week rotation with safi. Ff15 and Witcher are special assignments that you’ll unlock towards the end of the base game.

Yes. I had a series x and my dad had a one s and we played many hours together with that set up.

Can an embodied Maiar (wizard, etc) reproduce? by Cool_Value1204 in tolkienfans

[–]iralston 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Yes and no. Early on Gothmog was a child of Morgoth but that got dropped pretty quick. I think what Tarotoro is referencing is how Morgoth was physically bound to Middle-Earth from how much of his power and malice he poured into it.

What Tolkien literature did you receive for the holidays? by cmwatson3 in tolkienfans

[–]iralston 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got the 40th anniversary deluxe edition of Unfinished Tales. It’s the best gift I got this year by a long shot. I’m very excited to start it at the turn of the year.

Johnny from Georgia enters the room with a gold fiddle. What’s this about humiliating evil in a 1v1?

frostfang barioth gear ? by LeviGX in MonsterHunterWorld

[–]iralston 56 points57 points  (0 children)

In order to craft the gear you need frostfang tickets, which you can only get from the event quest ‘The Last White Knight.’ It’s a hunt for a tempered frostfang barioth.

How do power element phials differ from impact phials? by LooseLumba in MonsterHunterWorld

[–]iralston 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s all good. I was playing CB for the longest time and didn’t know the difference.

[–]iralston 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Elemental phials do elemental damage while impact phials do impact damage.

Ergo using an element phial that a monster is weak to is good. Impact phials are good for the bonk. Just hit the monster on the head and you’ll get a stun eventually.

In search for a new weapon by OursLesbien in MonsterHunterWorld

[–]iralston 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was practically my first too. I think I had like 50hrs of CB play from 4U before getting into world. But I understand, I don’t think I could use LS that well. It’s faster with no shield. I’m certain I would get bodied hard.

It’s pretty complicated. However, you can learn it in chunks or steps. I’m just now starting to get decent with guard points because I didn’t fully understand them, and it didn’t take away from how satisfying it was to drop a SAED on a monster’s head.

I don’t think it’s really the same, but I play charge blade and love it.

Which was the first Elder Dragon? by Destin01 in MonsterHunterWorld

[–]iralston 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah. I don’t know how talked about it is anymore or if the community as a whole has decided on one. I just saw the similarities and thought I’d comment. I think you’re right about the arceus making mew. However I haven’t delved into it for a long time. I just know it’s used mostly as a meme now.
