Hm. I can't decide if I still like charge blade like world. It just feels slower. But then I don't know what my other option is because I like the versatility the charge blade offers.
If Kiranico's accurate (and I expect they are),Well, I managed to get Valstrax limping before I ran out of ammo with Adept HBG...can't find any weakness chart so not sure if I'm hitting the right spots.

If Kiranico's accurate (and I expect they are),Wing Legs: 60, Head/Body: 45, Neck: 40, everything else pretty bad
It's a very fun fight, though, with lots of exaggerated moves like some sort of flying Glavenous. I think I like it.
Second this. And valor Lance. I wasn't quite sure how to use valor Lance till I watch the mhxx festa videos where the godly valor Lancer use it like a hammer.
Fought Barioth with valor LS to practice my counter timings. it looks so slick when you pull it off.
MH seems like a game I'd absolutely loved but I've tried the Wii U, the 3DS and now the Switch demos and I always get so bored playing it. What am I doing wrong? Why is it so slow?
We have a discord already, the link is probably in the MHW OT.are we gonna have an era discord for MHGU? or is there a general monhun era discord that'll have us?
Lance was fucking ridiculously busted in MHW, it was basically impossible to die using it in my experience.So I cleared the intermediate monster with 7 minutes to spare with the DB after not being able to complete it last night with the lance. So either I'm completely terrible with the lance in this game as compared to MHW, or the lance is not as good in old gen as it is in MHW.
This tail cut is amazing. I also seem to be getting better with my LS counters.
Yes, mounting is still in. Give aerial glaive a try, it's really fun.I fell in love with the insect glaive when it was first introduced, but I feel like it's made me a worse player since I never learned how to mount monsters the "correct" way (I just pole vault onto them).
I actually haven't been able to pull off a mount in the demo yet; is mounting still in?

Nice tail cuts y'all.
Sure is, just need to hit monsters with jump attacks. The problem might be that there's certain parts of some monsters that won't build the mount status when hit, but it's usually not an issue as most of the monster is fine. A long yellow slash visual effect appears when your hit built mount status.I fell in love with the insect glaive when it was first introduced, but I feel like it's made me a worse player since I never learned how to mount monsters the "correct" way (I just pole vault onto them).

Pretty sure you can mount every monster in the game except Nakarkos and Lao Shan. From playing aerial HBG I know that if you knock the monster down for the mount but aren't close enough, they'll get back up after a few seconds and your opportunity will be wasted. With aerial HBG if you use X+A aerial downward shots and see the monster drop you better be ready to roll toward the monster as soon as you land to get close enough to get on in time.Can you mount Valstrax? Aerial attacks are hard to land with HBG but I go for them when I can. But both times I've landed 3-4 in succession he just fell over with no mount animation. I assumed the first time was because we were in an awkward spot but the second was just in a wide open normal area.
I had the same experience with tri, it wasnt until I tried the right weapon in a later game that it clicked. What weapon were you running?MH seems like a game I'd absolutely loved but I've tried the Wii U, the 3DS and now the Switch demos and I always get so bored playing it. What am I doing wrong?

I've mounted Valtrax numerous times in the demo, though as a blademaster.Can you mount Valstrax? Aerial attacks are hard to land with HBG but I go for them when I can.

What weapons are you familiar with? Try Switch Axe if you haven't. You might like it.
I've only played MHW, but I enjoyed this some, just the controls feel super weird. Hopefully it'll come with time, but I'm just worried I'll not be 100% playing when I'm switching between this and World a lot. I play with the Switch Axe and it feels much better in World than here imo. They really changed the move set it seems in World.

the move set depends on your style. The one in World is based on "guild style".
Ya the Switching doesnt increase your phials luke in World, but in Valor once the bar is full you can hit R after any attack and keep doing powerful switching combos.Ah, I see. Thanks for letting me know. I noticed that the combo art is the combo from World where you go from the unlimited club swings to spinning into sword mode, so that's nice. I use that combo a lot in World, so I'll have to get use to waiting for the meter to fill now. Any advice on getting used to switching between modes and sheathing? It feels much less fluid here than World which is throwing me off. I was still able to kill the ice monster on first try though, so I must be doing something right lol.
Hellblade Glavenus LS and armor.Anyone knows what is the LS and the armor that you use in the demo?
Ya the Switching doesnt increase your phials luke in World, but in Valor once the bar is full you can hit R after any attack and keep doing powerful switching combos.
Also in the full game you can pair Demons riot, which makes your phials go down based on time not hits and energy charge which will reload phials so you basically just stay in sword.
Edit : you can still do the wild swing and switch combo by doing an upward axe attack, it wont let you do it at anytime like in world. So hit a and x and then wild swing.
Yeah, I'm glad that they decided to release it eventually, but nothing about Capcom's handling has been intelligent.This entire thread is a great example of why this should have been released before World came out. Predictably, a good 60% of the comments are "I can't go back".
That said, I'm just waiting on that preorder to ship so I can transfer my Generations info and finish my Switch Axe collection.
I've started playing with charge blade a little bit. This weapon slaps. It seemed so confusing for me in 4U but I guess I never really put in the time to try and learn.

Which art are you using?So I cleared the intermediate monster with 7 minutes to spare with the DB after not being able to complete it last night with the lance. So either I'm completely terrible with the lance in this game as compared to MHW, or the lance is not as good in old gen as it is in MHW.

I dunno', to me it seems like their goal for MH was really to get World to take off and make MH even more successful outside of Japan and I think they succeeded. No matter how you slice it, MHGU was never the next step for MH and I think that's always been visible from their intentions with World. It comes off as very dismissive when you say that nothing about their handling has been intelligent when World was a huge hit and by all odds MHGU should still sell well.Yeah, I'm glad that they decided to release it eventually, but nothing about Capcom's handling has been intelligent.
I do understand this line of thinking. MHW is Capcom best selling game of all time. They made a huge gamble and it paid off.Yeah, I'm glad that they decided to release it eventually, but nothing about Capcom's handling has been intelligent.
First time I try any Monster Hunter Game. Just spent 10 min with this..wow, it looks and feels so rough. And movement is so fucking slow and sluggish. Any tips? Tried the beginner monster and died twice.
All the Switch Axe love in this thread is warming my heart. Though I have a soft spot for SnS too and can't decide what to run in GenUThis entire thread is a great example of why this should have been released before World came out. Predictably, a good 60% of the comments are "I can't go back".

Great job with the hbg there.Maybe not the best time ever, but I did it. Adept HBG ended up being the better option once I learned most of the tells for his attacks. The somersault move went from the bane of my existence to the best source of damage and reloads.
I feel like I could absolutely roll this bastard with a proper pierce HBG.
