what's the fastest clear time weapon anyway? HBG?
i disagree with the person you quoted and i think they matter a lot! i think mighty bow by itself is like 16% extra damage or something which is nutty for a single deco.

what's the fastest clear time weapon anyway? HBG?
Spread HBG with the scope mod that makes it horribly unfun to play.
man i only had mods for a few days and am spoiled by them. Stracker's tool breaking with last night's patch made me realize how much I already rely on the drop indicator mod and how bad it is regularly looking for white sparkles in the snow
i've used the one that makes paws show on shinies and it makes a world of difference imo. definitely one of those mods i'll try to have on all the time unless like you said a patch breaks it.
i also have used the one that makes guiding lands gathering spots more prominent which was incredibly helpful but i turned it off once i memorized where nodes were.
You guys must be using a different light pillar mod from me because mine is still working fine. And it never relied on the tool to make nativePC work.
I use the Souvenir's mod and it never required the stracker mod to function.
yup using a variant of the paws, haven't gotten to guiding lands yet so did not install the nodes mod yet
I used this one unique v3 so it has a different symbol over each type of drop https://www.nexusmods.com/monsterhunterworld/mods/2325?tab=files
then I tacked this one on top to make the colors bolder https://www.nexusmods.com/monsterhunterworld/mods/2351?tab=images
they remind me of the signs in death stranding haha
edit: looks like stracker's is fixed

OP
Capcom allows cosmetic modifications to assets, like transmog or the light pillars. Anything that involves editing the game itself requires nativePC, which Capcom disabled with Iceborne and can only be re-enabled using Stracker's Loader.
Well yeah I know that. I just don't get why these other mods that are basically pillar mods do require it. Unless there is something else the mods do I guess.
it edits visual effect files which are by default barred from loading since Iceborne, hence the need for strackers loader. Haven't looked at the pillar mod, I guess it's just a model and texture edit therefore no need for the loader
Tempered Guiding Lands Rajang materials. And it's exclusive the the Level 7 Volcanic region.
Its a shiny drop from Tempered Rajang in Guiding Lands. Make sure to slap a geology decoration on and 1 hunt will get you like 20 to 30 of the dropped material.Spent a good chunk of today hunting Rajang over and over. it's a damn good time and its armor looks amazing. I assume the material necessary to upgrade the Rajang weapons only drops from the tempered version?
Ahh, Raj, or some say Rajang...
Do you hear our prayers?
No, we shall not abandon the grind.
No one can cart us! No one can stop us now!
On PC as a way to make up for the events being offline a day or so before the festival was meant to end.
I got it on Xbox as well, some championship blah blah blah reward pack.
I should check and see if PS4 got it then too. Assuming yes if Xbox did.
Yeah, you're right. That's a nice thing to give away to everyone! PC users also got some melding and gratitude tickets for the event mishap.
Ah, okay. I guess I know what I'll be doing for a while. Thanks!
It's given with the login bonus as part of the US championship celebration pack.
Okay the reason Lance was sucking was because I was playing multiplayer. In single player it's 50x as effective. I'm never playing this weapon in multi again.
Pretty much how I feel about every weapon except maybe the ranged ones.
Not yet. I think I missed out on the appreciation festival packs too cuz I didn't talk to the cat.
When you login there should be a prompt to get your packs right on the screen. You can also do this at any notice board.

You may have to be in "online mode" to see these?
Looked at the event schedule and Safi is back on March 6, until March 26. I think it's safe to say the Kulve and Safi sieges are on permanent rotation now, basically taking turns: if Safi is available, Kulve isn't and if Kulve is available, Safi isn't.
It's a great decoration to have access to. I've played this game for many hours and have many of the other rare decos, but this one eluded me. Having it is great for certain hunts for sure.
Mind's Eye seems great for all melee weapons. It's good to have on a set against monsters like Scarred YG or G/S Rath with dangerous hitzones even at max sharpness, where bouncing can lead to a cart or at least lots of hurt. Very happy to have it on something else than a charm. So was it always in the decoration tables or is it new to this patch or Iceborne? Never seen it before.
It's pretty useless or more of a needless luxury for a lot of weapons. You wouldn't get it on GS. You wouldn't get it on a weapon like Lance if you have purple sharpness and master's touch. Switch Axe has free mind's eye in sword mode to begin with.
I seem to recall bouncing even with purple sharpness on certain monsters. Perhaps I'm misremembering. Sure, it's a luxury in that I could just aim better and it's not essential. But it's nice to have. Why wouldn't I get on GS specifically?
So should I be blasting through the story as a new player? Been trying to play as fast as I can! Been using all the good gear they give you like the defense armor.
I've been figuring that I should keep all my loot and whatnot until I get to the point they want me at.

Minds eye is less useful now that claw-softening is possible and some weapons have purple sharpness (purple never bounces [edit: I think?]).
Still, it's very nice for anyone still on the story, since you may be using blue-sharp weapons that bounce like hell.
It's also useful for a few hunts where monsters have hard parts and claw softening is dangerous (especially in single player, where you don't have a 4-way cuthc-claw rodeo to keep everything softened)
Monsters like scarred garuga and silverlos have very hard parts and a failed clutch claw attack on the tail/head is going to hurt you.
To be honest, it's one of those "Fuck this bullshit, I should've brought X to this fight" gems for me (c.f. steadfast and tremor resist). I almost never use it, but often wish I had.
Go as fast as you like, but you shouldn't stop to 'grind' anything unless you really enjoy the fight.
Keep all the loot at the end of fights. If you need cash for something, you can sell stuff that you have an excess of while back at camp.
There are some low and high rank materials that you'll need as part of the upgrade path for master-rank weapons.
The easiest way to get cash is to use your daily ticket on an investigation that already has a bonus cash reward - and do it in single player. The cash rewards in master rank are high and mean that selling low/high rank stuff for a few pennies is rarely worth it (I mean, you get 3K or 10K zenny just from the pig between every quest in master rank, some investigations give >100K even without a ticket, and the steamworks can get you a lot of cash for doing basically nothing). I think I've seen investigation rewards go as high as 180K, though that's for something insane like a triple tempered rajang/deviljho/rathalos with 1 faint.

If you want to just keep pushing forward and you're having a great time doing it keep at it! Whatever you're comfortable fighting against is where you should be. You'll know when you hit a wall and either need to practice a lot against something tough or build up your gear.
You probably don't want to hit hitzones where you bounce to begin with on most monsters, so when you have the luxury of an easy to aim long range melee weapon like with GS you can just hit the better hitzone, or you tenderize it if it's something like the head of Silver/Gold Rath that you actually want to break. Your primary focus on those monsters are the tails anyway.
You also never have sharpness issues with GS, so losing purple sharpness isn't a factor.
Regardless of usefulness for certain cases, I almost feel like a PSA should be made for people to login in order to get the Mind's Eye deco. :D
I've played for more than 1200 hours and I've never gotten one so receiving it as soon as I log in tonight will be appreciated.
Normally, if I suspected I would be in a fight where bouncing could be annoying I was wearing two pieces of Rajang armour but more flexibility is always appreciated.

Mind's Eye is still very useful for Behemoth because there's no way to wound the chest AFAIK and it is still too easy to accidentally bounce off of it when playing Lance.
I hardly touched it although I was thinking it might be great on Kushala especially when he's surrounded with all that wind
EDIT
nvm

What difference in distance are we talking about for Mind's Eye with ranged weapons? Is it ever useful for having to move less into the optimal distance?
