Monster Hunter World: Iceborne |OT| Looking for love in Alatreon places

I think it's good on pierce if you're trying to use it on monsters that aren't very big, but other than that it's not really that important. You can also get it via 2pc Rajang at a minimal cost anyway so it's not super important. I think something like Mighty Bow or Guard Up are a lot more useful, but Mind's Eye/Ballistics works for everyone so it's a nice thing to give.
And yeah haven't used it since Behemoth in vanilla, although I guess it could be useful for Rajang too if you're using a weapon that sweeps too much(longsword maybe, also kinda IG).
Lmao
So, I was going through my videos and found this old one I didn't get around to posting yet. It's a beautiful punish of a teostra's ultimate. Shot his tail clean off!
Yeah I think the design is great. And it's a flying creature that actually just straight up attacks you with everything it's got from the air and doesn't give a fuck that you can't hit it or were dumb enough to fight it with melee weapons. Also wind dragons are quite uncommon.
Yeah turns out I have some so that's good.

Finally got around to doing the Silver + Gold Rath quest for the first time. Still not great fights, if only because of that forced arena mechanic. In my case Rathalos showed up just as Rathian went limping and of course they first stunlock me with alternating roars and then Rathalos bumbles into the shock trap I set up for Rathian. Oh well. At least I got two Research Commission Tickets out of it, so I was able to forge my first Kulve layered set. Yay!
Let me know if anyone (Zhao_Yun, xEik?) wants to do more Kulve sieges. I'm available this whole weekend during the night and likely next week as well.

If you're farming tickets, you will become very efficient at that quest. It feels like I spend most of the time waiting for Rathalos to show up after Rathian is trapped.
I definitely felt a bit rusty.
I do hate they picked Nergi's nest as the arena, though, since my DPS relies so much on sliding. There are a few small slide spots, but using them actually put me at a disadvantage because it makes me an easy target of the Raths' sweeping attacks and big hitboxes in general. Area 14 would've been a much better pick in my opinion.

Finally reached Rank100 (MR 133 / HR 178) and unlocked the last levels for guiding lands. Currently rocking a Hunting Horn Build with Wide Range, works well in quests and the guiding land. Trying to push Forest and Lava Zone and gettings some mats for affinity, attack and health reggen augmentations.
Unfortunately my mate is currently having a longer break after we pretty much played nonstop since Inceborne launched for PC. Is there an active resetera community on PC? Want to push the guiding lands right now. Playing in UTC+01:00 timezone, mostly hammer, insect glaive, hunting horn, switch axe.

Oh wow! Looks like I have to jump right in :)That event quest: Heavy Metal in the Waste
I'll add you - what's your Steam ID? I'm close to hitting MR100.
GL Deviljho hits so ridiculously hard. First time I hunted him there I carted thrice within ten minutes.
Nice avatar, btw. 👍
Filing it in the "Jho doing Jho things" folder.
I mean, I know that the lance clutch counter carries some risk and someone will complain that the vitality mantle is not the mantle one should be bringing to quests but...
Our 4-man is absolutely getting stomped by Rajang and Kirin. The only way we've managed to properly survive is one of us going full support/healer.
hey, i'm new here. Is there still an active ps4 community here or has everyone swapped to pc?
I found Rajang easier to solo, in both this and mhgen. His movements become predictable and it is easier to stay safe. In multi I find him very unpredictable, which makes it more challenging for me. Could just be me though.
I tried Kirin solo the other day and it was definitely a lot more managable. I think just the lower HP makes it less of a slog. Will have to try Rajang at one point. This is the first time we've run a healer/support in our team (we're all fairly casual) and I'm amazed how effective it is. I wonder if we should attempt the Extreme Behemoth.
I used to Bow Kirin but Master Rank version was proving a real pain even with my best bow setup (it doesnt help that it moves so much and spread shot is near useless on a target that small)
I ended up just brute forcing it with Switch axe (go for the head in axe mode and grind it for knockdowns with sword) and its was fucking night and day
Switch Axe is arguably the way to fucking go lol
hammer too for Kirin and you definitely have to make use of the terrain the sliding and jumping mechanics are key here
I should be free tomorrow so just let me know if you want to do more kulve :)
Me too.
Around 19:00 - 20:00 UTC again?
So I finally picked this up but I'm getting destroyed! What sort of gear are you supposed to start the dlc with and how would you go about getting it? I figured I'd be ok since I had 80+ defense armor and a couple strong charge blades to choose from but everything is hitting me like a tank and it took me over an hour to kill the first monster.
I was a bit rusty to start out with remembering how the blade works, but I went back for a run against diablos and had no trouble so I'm thinking I'm maybe not geared up for it.

You need to make a Master rank armor set those have 120+ defense and also upgrade your weapons to master rank.
This is a video about how to craft MR sets early and easy
how many times have you tried solo?
if people don't know what they are doing he is a lot more difficult in multi. If you play Bowgun is really easy to beat him using a sticky build.
That is so freaking weird to me because I never considered any of Rajang's ranged attack to be the actual problem. It's the giant jumping slam that might cart me, especially if wearing Rocksteady because it's kind of balanced around only hitting once, but the attack hits Rocksteady twice since you tank the first hit.
I've tried solo once and failed, but I memorize the moveset enough that I can avoid dying in multi. It's just other players are getting creamed. I played GS and it's a pain in the ass for solo so I tend to do everything in multi.
if you are playing GS a frostcraft-critical draw build is good against him. also bring all the traps you can carry and equip your cat with a sleep weapon and the trap gadget and spam the boomcage.
Tried it again and beat it :)
Yeah, frostcraft and critdraw really made the fight easier since I can do hit and run. Took a while but it's done.
OP
OP
I started bringing Nulberries on every hunt in Iceborne because so many monsters give iceblight or other blights.
oh if you are in Hoarfrost try getting a warming jewel? otherwise
EDIT
your wall will probably be Barioth and Viper Tobi Karachi
haha Red Potions... I'm thinking of another game.

You get an infinite combo you can re-aim constantly and dodge out of any moment, or shield if need be. You should be in monsters face almost nonstop. Other melee need back off or wait for safe moments. SnS don't need give a damn.
I think this is probably the source of my issues lol. I rarely bothered to pack nulberries so I should probably try and make more of a habit of it.
Viper Tobi Kadachi was a pain but it was the nightshade one giving me the most trouble since it incapacitated you for 10-15 seconds a time
Bring Energy Drinks, and chug one when you start to stumble around before falling asleep. Useful when you accidentally Sleeptoad yourself too.
Finally got my volcanic region in GL to a level 7..... No fucking thanks to a tempered Kushala .....it was needed for the attack augments and the zone level. By the FUCKING WAY Since when can this fucking thing mix it's tornadoes with fucking Lava to make moving Lava tornados?!?!?! That is some next level shit!
I could have gone a life time without knowing that this thing can mix shit up with other elements... Wtf is next... Thunder tornadoes..... Cyclones... ice storms?

wait till you see Kushala appear with a silver or gold rathian in the same room
Custom weapon upgrades changing the look of your weapon is a terrible idea.
I might just wind up getting one of the transmog mods so I can go back to having the cool looking shit.

it would have been a cool idea if it gave the weapon a unique design but since it's the same shitty looking strap on design it doesn't work at all.
