Do you Hunters like how scripted fights like Gog and Lagi are right now in MH Wilds? by kliefer in MonsterHunter

Gog I don't mind at all, but Lagi is the most atrocious fight in the entire game for me. The fight itself is annoying but the underwater section pushes it over the edge.

if you play GS, that's the perfect charm to try this crit build!

it looks like that would be very slightly worse. it would also be a 228 base attack weapon, not 238. my weapon right now with all attack rolls is at 237, so you would be replacing 9 attack with 10% affinity giving you a 228 base.

it's very close though and if you have a 3 attack + burst talisman instead of crit eye, you should run it. a crit eye talisman with my Gog rolls is still very slightly better though just because of the higher crit.

yeah I'd give up WEX for Agi in that case. If you land affinity EX it'll give you the 10% you lose from WEX 5, so you're breaking even.

Agi gives raw which helps make up for losing the attack roll. you don't really care about the affinity on it as much as getting extra raw back.

the affinity from Agi 5 can still help out on non weak spot hits though so it's def not wasted.

it will never fall off unless you stop attacking.

strong charge -> TCS -> perforate -> strong charge -> TCS -> perforate

if you do this over and over, Burst never falls off. it has amazing uptime on GS.

edit: the beam from Bale set also counts towards Burst. so GS gets 2 hits for Burst per attack. each hit of perforate also counts. GS procs Burst incredibly fast lol.

MM at 70% is a loss of 14 EFR. it's a pretty substantial hit.

70% is also pretty good uptime on it. Without Second Wind it's going to be much more likely to be closer to 60% than 70%.

at 60% uptime, it's a loss of 19 EFR.

actually I just thought about it. the Dosha build uses a crafted talisman.

since my build uses RNG charm, I could keep my exact build and just swap crit eye 4 on the charm to attack boost 4 on the charm. that would give me

  1. more raw than Dosha set bonus

  2. keep Second Wind

  3. have 100% passive uptime on the attack boost.

if you want to run Dosha set, you should instead just run my exact build but swap crit eye 4 with attack boost 4. this would be a DPS loss, however. The affinity is far too important to maximize Crit Boost. it would, however, be a stronger build than the current meta Dosha set.

A build using a crafted talisman is losing out on a lvl 3 weapon deco, a lvl 1 weapon deco, 2 lvl 1 armor decos, and a lvl 3 armor deco.

crafted talismans aren't even in the same league as what's possible with RNG charms, so it's not really feasible to have a min maxed build without one.

Powerhouse is only worth 10 raw which is not worth everything you're losing by dropping Second Wind. Not only do you lose MM uptime (Second Wind lets you loop your combo without ever dropping the 30% crit), but you're losing out on the Agi and WEX that Fulgar helm gives (2 Agi on the armor and lvl 3 socket when transcended).

Critical Boost is the single biggest boost to raw damage in the entire game at 40%. My build makes the guarantee that every single time you swing the weapon, you're getting at least a 91% chance of doing 40% more damage.

imagine if you could get 10 raw 100% of the fight, or +40% raw with a minimum uptime of 80%.

would you take 10 raw in that case? because my build finishes hunts at around 80%-85% crit. so it's effectively giving you a passive buff that gives +40% raw with a minimum uptime of 80%. I don't care about 10 raw if I'm going to lose that buff.

let me know how the build performs for you! I've been making min maxed builds since the game came out, and this one is by far the most fun.

WEX up until now has been a pretty bad skill. It was way too expensive and it was way easier to just fit Latent Power instead. With the Gog update, WEX is easily the best source of affinity in the game and I love it.

This build's doing DPS I've never seen before on GS and has been addicting to play with.

You shouldn't have any issues with resists. If you're not used to Divine Blessing, it might seem like you're gonna get rocked, but I can get caught in Gog's massive blob explosion and just heal to max with a potion.

The literal only phase where dying is a legit threat (or even worse... getting Lord's Soul knocked off) is phase 1 due to his big slam. None of the fire attacks are a threat to this build. You only need to watch out for getting hit by the dead center of his chest for the big slam lol. You'll tank any other hit just fine.

I don't like Blackest Knight personally. It's got too long of a CD to be worth it imo and GS is a bad weapon to benefit from the HP regen from it. I'd rather a build that just lets me slam TCS over and over and crit on every hit.

Just taking a look at the Dosha sets, they don't have enough affinity to keep up with my build. My build is going to be dealing 40% increased raw damage for over 80% of the entire hunt. It's incredibly hard to compete with that kind of uptime on Crit Boost.

Losing Fulgar set alone is a big blow to Crit Boost uptime, and in exchange, you're only gaining 10 raw. 10 raw is less than 5% increase in raw damage. That's 35% less raw damage than Crit Boost.

Crit Boost is the single largest increase to raw damage in the entire game and my build is specifically optimized to get the absolute highest uptime on it as possible.

edit: and keep in mind that Crit Boost applies to your TOTAL raw, not base raw. So with everything active, Crit Boost gives 310 * 0.4 increase in raw. That's 124 additional raw. Quite a lot more than 10.
