The jumping move is shit without buffs. The stick hits like a wet noodle without buffs.
I'm sure there are a few players who never use the Kinsect, and those people will be relying on MP just to win fights. But I bet it doesn't happen often, because the buffs make such a gigantic difference and every second spent without them is excruciating.
Iirc Insect Glave is at number one and Lbg is at the bottom.
I'm suspicious that basic HR Jho is all we're getting. I wouldn't be surprised at all if we got the Savage variant as well, or if his Tempered version functioned exactly like it.
A good idea is to check the Defense stats of the people of your group and act accordingly. I can't believe the ammount of people doing Tempered Elder Dragons with less than 350 Def and playing melee on top of that :/ Sometimes they are even 100+HR...
I think it'll probably be about as hard as black blos, so basically an elder dragon you can't knock out of the sky with flash pods.
Have they said whether or not you'll be able to trap deviljho?
Hmm, I thought only Elder Dragons could not be trapped ? How did it function in previous Monster Hunter games ?
Not really but there is a way to set the order your items are in in the scroll bar (ammo too) and it can help. I for example, have it start on buff items I take the buffs and scroll right after each, ending on my mantle items or flash/dung and know that a few to the right of those are traps The clutch items are radial wheel items (with Radial mode 2).
Go to Item Pouch in options menu.
Press triangle and sort the items in the order you'd like. First item to the right of the "gap" is where your cursor starts. Top ammo is likewise where your cursor starts there.
Save your item set (making sure you've already set radial and items in it first) and your sort is saved as well.
Not the same as having a subset ,but organization helps.
If you're referring to the live stream I really think it was the surrounding Jagras attacking the player, not Jho in the pit, although if that actually wasn't the case then well...shit, new mechanic!
Either they're using flash pods to knock them out of the sky or they are getting KOs. KOs are the result of building up enough stun damage to reach the monster's stun threshold. The stun threshold will increase after subsequent KOs up to a certain maximum. You can sorta see how high that is in your Hunter's notes. 3 stars in the stun category means they are the most vulnerable to it. All hammer and hunting horn attacks, stun vial charge blades, sword and shield bash, and bow gun sticky ammo all deal stun damage if they connect with a monster's head.
Yup thats what I saw recently. Im surprised IG went up to #1.
Yeah, me too. I encountered the first wyverian last week and he told me the IG was the most popular. I tought he was bugged or something. Because these were the weapon usage stats per March 5:
I wonder how they rate usage, Is it based on # of hours?
He was always going to be easy, all of the dlc monster will.
Before the final boss it's governed by story progression. In the beginning each story mission will increase your rank. Later, when you start the high rank part, it takes anywhere from 1 - 3 missions depending on where you are in the story. After you kill the final boss, your HR gets unlocked and it increases as you do optional quests, investigations and events. All the optional things you've done prior to defeating the final boss are included, which is why people often jump from HR15 (when you defeat the final boss) straight to the mid twenties.
I have no idea. Perhaps they look at the number of quests completed with the weapon during the last 7 days. If it's even measured per week. It might also update each day.
Totally appreciate the offer - I've never done "proper" co-op in this game with non-randoms...I might be lost to SoT for awhile though...
No idea myself. I love it and use it all the time when I just want company and don't want to wait forever in the lobby, or just want to join randoms for a quick hunt.
Oooohhhh....but the story sucks and I haven't been playing it lately. Guess I have to dive back in. At least I'm geared better now.
