Roster so far.

Zignore is all but confirmed
Lagi and Khezu are de confirmed officially
Val, gore, and Steve are up in the air but bets place Steve on being in the game as a secret invader and gore and shaggy being free dlc
Weirdly enough Yian Guargua might be in or possible Kulu is getting the Guragua treatment
Paralysis Valhazak variant maybe
Mystery water elder
Everwyrm is the final boss

Don't think so, or else there will be a split path for Acidic as well. Dark purple materials just suggest Steel Uragaan, even though I know his material colors are blue. Could be something new entirely

i can forgive the flood of 4th gen trash as long as we get garuga

>Paralysis

I dont get the appeal.

What happened why dod they get de confirmed?

Going full meme and fighting Extremoth with all four using SA was one of the more enjoyable times I got dragged into doing that.

Forgot about the obligatory new siege

it's 5-6 procs depending on the monster. Also, that 5 seconds is enough to dish out tons of damage with a competent party.

That’s true my bad

>khezu deconfirmed
Fuckin nobody said that

Like the other user said, it’s time for the whole party to attack, and also paralysis increases damage by 25% during those 7 seconds.

its around ~6 seconds, during which team your team can deal a ton of damage.
and you can apply it up to ~6 times, with around the same number of hits
and SA can get up to ~600 paralysis attack and apply it super easily

when we do extremoth I like to bring one SA and have them equip para for phases 3 and 4. It makes it a total cakewalk.

Well in series or recent interview in China the officially reconfirmed lagi and all leviathans for 5th but promised they’d be in MHW2 along with monkey, beast, etc

And in the same interviews they reconfirmed khezu, but it was a soft deconfirm, so it’s a toss up between whether the translation is “we can answer the question” or a straight up no to him being in. Given that the main issue with lagi was his neck and one of the key things the dick monster dies us stretch is neck really long probably means they ran into the same issues with him as they did lagi, so he’s probably not in

Sony is probably paying a good amount of coin to keep initial exclusivity especially since the base game sold so well.

Reality is harsh. At least MH has you fight them because most of the time its either the encroaching rathalos or your town, and you have got to defend your home just as he has to protect his nest. And it's not like humanity triumphs over monsters and fucks them over 24/7, just look at the ruins all over the place.

For people who played the beta, how is the clutch claw? Is it annoying? Does it make the game too easy? Do you feel like you need to use it too much? Does it make the game better? I've just been kinda worried about it as a gameplay addition.

Striker is fun.
Remember that you're invulnerable during your Round Force hunter art.

It’s amazing, basically makes the game attack on Titan and makes vanilla boring to play without it. If like fun things in your game you’d like it if you’re into that TA shit and MH is hardcore you may not

What happened to /mhg/? Why is it so unusable lately? I try posting some PC room and a bunch of people start calling it a discord tranny room. What gives?

I do miss single player, but it's been my favourite mode in every game I just can't bare to let it go.
Finding good people is mostly challenging since most people are just playing it for the coins and playing safe, which doesn't help when you're trying to get record clears

>Why is it so unusable lately?
>lately?
It's been this way for, like, four years now.

psfats are bored, nintensharts are jealous and trannycord doesn't want anyone to have fun

I think they implemented it into combat rather smoothly, soon everyone just uses it naturally as part of the combat. I like it a lot.
>Is it annoying?
For random shitters that spam the move, yes. You are not invulnerable at all any time during the clutch (Lance gets free pass), and take huge damage if you try to clutch a monster during an attack.
>Does it make the game too easy?
I don't think so, wounding a monster/dropping ammo seems to be encouraged, and also lets other players know what part to attack if they want to make the hunt faster. It would also help greatly in the long run/endgame if you need a specific part to be broken and the wounding helps.
>Do you feel like you need to use it too much?
There will be moments where the monster does a specific flinch animation that tells the player "please use the clutch claw right now", and then you can use that opportunity to create a wound. You can use it at any point, like I mentioned, I think it just naturally flows in the hunt and helps with DPS shit if you're grinding.
Also webm related for funky shit

Attached: G Jaggy chaser.webm (1520x855, 2.95M)

that's interesting, it looks just like the re-mount grapple animation

I wasn't a big fan of it, but I didn't play the beta that much. Maybe it's something that you just have to get accustomed to with time like the slinger in general, but with the changes to weakness exploit you'd better hurry up and get used to it.

I’d say it’s engine differences since MH is still on MT Framework while the resort Capcom is moving over to RE Engine, but there’s plenty of good MT Framework ports on PC already. I do think it’s literally just because the MH team has never developed for PC before, DMC5 had the benefit of being directed by Hideaki Itsuno who has done PC releases for many of his games and thus knows what needs to be done for it to be a good port. It’s kind of like how From Software said before the PC release of Dark Souls that they’d never done developed for PC before and that the port was fucking trash, but not quite as extreme.

It's very well implemented, some weapons have it more as a core moveset addition than others. Examples are hammer (which lets you grapple instantly after you finish one of your charge attacks, and does a blanka roll along the way), Lance (which has a new guard counter that latches on with the claw when it lands, and feels very good, especially as a gap closer) and the SnS (which has this uppercut attack from dodge that latches onto a monster).
>Does it make the game easy
Not really, if anything they rebalanced skills so that the game is harder overall, and using clutch claw will revert the difficulty to base monster hunter if you can hit the tenderized area (weakness exploit got huge nerfs, and only gives affinity boost like vanilla when you hit a tenderized zone). Also, landing clutch claw attacks isn't going to be easy when a monster is chimping out at you. It's basically landing a ZSD for SA but a bit faster. How many times have you managed to land a ZSD without getting fucked for it, while the monster is running around?
>Do you feel the need to use it
I reckon you don't have to use it, but it's so easy to use and gives such a significant boost, you probably are going to use it anyway. If you're a TA player especially (provided TA wiki doesn't decide to ban crutch claw tenderizing like it did mantles) you're going to have to use it to get good times from now on.
Here's a video showcasing how fucking good the hammer crutch claw feels:

>everybody assuming it's Garuga
>when we have a Rarity 11 weapon (only for apex and EDs and variants) that branches off at the same level the Velkhana does
It's the Chameleos you dummies

Yeah but one of the materials is a beak, and last time I checked Chameleos doesn’t have one of those.

He stole it.

Well, they took about 6 extra months to bring the game to PC and the resulting product was a complete shitshow for months after release. Whatever excuse they have is a joke, especially in the year twenty-fucking-nineteen.

Both of those weapons start at rare 10, they can't be ED weapons.

I'd fucking love that but I doubt we're getting Chameleos.

Hrs honestly got a better chance than most other Elder Dragons do tbqh.

Chameleos doesn't drop a "beak", and his gems are also purple/pink, not light blue, like wyvern gems that LS uses.
Also, I'd expect an ED upgrade tree to be standalone, and not branch out of a simple metal upgrade line, but then again some of them do, so it doesn't prove anything, just a feeling I have.

Kulve taroth weapons are an abomination and I hope they are made permanently obsolete.

Acidic Glav doesn't inflict Para though. At least his tail does, maybe the bite does. Also that'd be exactly the same as Viper Tobi, and there's already a para LS at MR. But then again, Para on that LS is hidden, so might be A.Glav after all. A monster with more pronounced status afflicting abilities, like a para ED, would probably have innately active status property on their weapon. Oh, and that upgrade branch ends at R11, unlike EDs which usually go all the way up tot he max rarity, 12 in IB. So if it's Glavenus weapons, then it looks like subs only go up to R11, even flagships' subs. Variants, which are endgame monsters in IB will probably go up to R12 like EDs.

Whatever man leave my Sleep Hammer alone

His tail afflicts def down, not para, by the looks of things. I reckon acidic glav weapons are going to be top tier weapons with massive purple sharpness

But G elders drop big elder dragon jewels instead of monster specific gems, unless that’s being changed

Ryozo is a big fan of golden equipment. Get ready for Gacha Mommy round 2 in Master Rank where we finally slay her.

>How big of a power creep is G rank normally?
Gigantic

One of the art books mentioned the male version being Kulve Taram, so expect him to show up too.

One of my favourite things to do.

Attached: 6ed624.png (800x600, 338K)

Yeah I know he does def down, they said so at the even panel. But that doesn't mean it his only ability. Like Viper Toby isn't just the "poison sub". It's the dedicated status sub, which inflicts deadly poison with needles, but also has a paralyzing bite. Acidic Glav might also have something up his sleeve (or throat in this case).

He has a decent shot. He wasn't in 4 either while Kushala and Teostra were, but then he got added in 4U.

They already confirmed they will be upgradable because they don't want to waste the time people put into the grind.
So expect the master rank meta to just be the same exact kulve weapons again.

>It's even bigger

Threadly reminder that World isn't a Monster Hunter game

But B-team likes him.
They introduced him in 4U and he was in Gen from the get go

Weapons and armour you got in high rank will not be meta in master rank endgame. Augmenting your armour to unlock the defense cap might make it usable, but almost certainly still worse than the new stuff you'll make. Your streamstones are also likely to become worthless, considering different rarities of weapon require different kinds of stones, r12, r11, and etc weapons will use new streamstones. With that in mind, you might as well use the stones you have to augment your current shit to make early master rank easier, because saving them won't do you any good.

They said they made progress with Lagiacrus skeleton. Also it was not in Iceborne because after they removed it, they designed all the maps in a way which makes him super hard to introduce.
So putting leviathans in the next game will be pretty much the number one priority.

>Lagiacrus without water
What is the point

Easy explanation would have been the monsters are ruining ecosystems or fucking up trade routes and you the hunter are an equalizer.

But if you know the lore youd know black fatalis and the elder dragons entertained the thought of peace with humans and humans fucked everything up by making the equal dragon weapon. Back then humans fought for supremacy and now theyre just fighting to live. Humans did fucked up things but you can hardly account modern civilization for the wrongs of thousands of years ago.

They somehow hinted at water combat in the next game too

If you actually read the quests most of the reasons why you are hunting the monsters are hilariously stupid.

This same Narga would murder Kelbi for food, leaving its children with no mother. Or raid the nearest Kut-Ku nest to steal some eggs for her kitten. Or she could just eat her own children to restore some strength after it gives birth since she will be way too exhausted to hunt. It is wilderness. Once you step into it, you have to obey its laws.

>I was walking in the forest and decided to have a lunch break
>I sat down on a rock, but it turned out to be a monster!

Eh, sometimes.
A lot of times the reason for killing the monster is some shit like a fashion designer needing Rajang fur for his dress or a bitch princess who wants to make some fancy object out of the monster.

A miserable little pile of shockers

IRL animals are fucking assholes who constantly kill and devour each other. Cutie toxoplasm carriers have no qualms about extinquishing a frog or mouse's life which is as precious as their own. Huge cats people wish to protect from extinction once had no qualms about occasionally eating a human kid. Organic life as a whole is kinda awful, there are fucking plants that kill animals.

TLDR: IRL animals have such bloody karma they deserve the shit that's done to them, and video game mooks aren't even real.

Has there been any talk or possibility of adding new areas to the existing maps?
You guys make it sound like they're trying to backwards engineer rocket science to get Lagiacrus working with the current areas.
Wouldn't it just be a fuckload easier if they just added some fucking sandbar zone near area 1 he can go to and be a huge dumbfuck?

>Implying nearly every fight doesn't start and end in area 1, 11 and 8.
My point is if certain monsters dont work in certain areas, why not just make an area for it.
Making a fucking map is a hundred times easier than the AI animation monstrosities the monsters are.

Unlikely since those changes would apply to owners of the base game as well, and they won’t want to give them too much free shit. There’s nothing stopping them from expanding existing maps in future games though.

>haha what a slow charge, he must be exhausted already
>*Does instant 90 degree turn and pecks the shit out you*

>Has there been any talk or possibility of adding new areas to the existing maps?
No. And I doubt they'd do that. Not in IB at the very least. Maybe in 6th gen which will most likely include some of the 5th gen maps, if not all of them. They did change some of Tri maps in P3rd, but in that case they were cutting the areas, not adding them.

t. Handler

World changes the rules, its literally why they made it, to escape all of their grandfathered in "rules" and "gotta haves"

I genuinely hate the handler in MHW so fucking much. There's nothing meme about it.

>he has a largemapphobia
user... Hoarfrost Reach is going to be as large as Wildspire, Coral Highlands and Recess combined.

That is true for opinions too, and yours is clearly inferior.

Bullshit.

Unless it's one or two massive zones and a small one or two not lots of smaller ones?

well in this instance you'd want a unique area for the monster to inhabit due to it not working in certain areas--wouldn't that mean it would need another area or two to flee to during the hunt? And wouldn't those new areas need the same unique properties and interactions? And wouldn't these new areas need to be populated, and other monster AI be adjusted so that they can go there as well? Looking from the top down this is way more labor than just working on the monsters they KNOW they can plop into existing environments or Hoarfrost Reach
The up down up down is the part that kills me about Ancient Forest. I'm okay with large maps as long as they're not literal mazes. And I'm a pcboy so I don't have to worry about iceborne for a long ass time

I dunno where he heard the Coral Highlands bit, but rumours amongst those who have played the preview builds is that it’s bigger than Wildspire Waste and Elder’s Recess combined at the very least.

I fucking love mazes, and I have pretty good spatial awareness in vidya. Although the Ancient Forest can puzzle even me sometimes.
Hoarfrost seems to have a lot of verticality too, but it seems to be more distinctly divided between areas. First you have the forest, then snowy mountains (with Rotten Vale like caverns under it), then the frozen mountain peaks at its highest point.

I miss him :(

Attached: Ivory.png (800x571, 339K)

My suggestion was just a sandbar area near the ocean\coastline part of ancient forest. Areas 1, 3 and 4 already have plenty of room, but anything north of that is a no go.
I just don't understand why the devs think Lagi needs to be able to go to the northern parts of the map when his "nest" could just be the area 13.

I hated the Ancient Forest at first, but after you learn the routes it's actually not that bad.

Wildspire Waste>Coral Highlands>Ancient Forest>>>>Rotten Vale>>>>>>>>>>>>Elder's Recess.

Am I the only one who kinda likes Uragaan while everyone else shits on him? He is fun as a monster concept, a Tony Hawk or cartoon mascot wyvern who rolls downhill from a volcano, does sick air stunts and flips, having a shitton of fun in the process. And his armor has great design.

Uragaan's design is fine, problem is that he is boring as hell to fight.

nigga only has like 3 moves. Thats why everyone hates him.
>roll attack forward or in a C shape
>spin and send out bombs
>slam chin
oh and his mega rare extra 4th attack where he crouches down and braps

I absolutely love the weirdness of gen 3 monsters
iirc in an interview, the devs were like, "we want new idea, and Ryozo-san just said "hey how about an excavator?". And thats how we got Barroth the excavator, Uragaan the megawheel, and Agnaktor the industrial drill"

Don't forget that he can fart fire or sleep gas.

well it might be reasonable since I'm a worldkiddie who doesn't know what lagi even does
I just constantly forget how to get to the upper reaches of the map consistently and when I do get on the right path there are 3 or 4 vine-walls to climb. Then if you miss your flash pod rathalos or rathian will fly to another part of the map completely

Its a fun weapon that feels the closest to old school weapons. Now go back to your baby LS, which has a 55iframe counter.

Agreed. I also want an entire weapon category based on Uragaan fighting style. A massive fucking pair of wheels to roll around and run over shit, jump off cliffs drifting, boosting like almost a full on vehicle.

I think Tri struck the best balance between down to earth designs and fun concepts.

The best way the Ancient Forest could be expanded in future games:

Fucking destroy Astera and have it be reclaimed by nature and part of the map. If they bring back underwater, the beach area in zone 4 can be extended out behind the back of Astera, and some caves can run underneath all that and connect to the existing cave areas.

Get a pro, i mean you fucked up you bought the base PS4 you fucked up you got tricked it sucks but you can't stay like this.
I don't see why someone would buy any hardware or software at launch, lesson learned.

Great idea
Astera can fucking burn

I love elder's recess. The only issue is that by the endgame you spend 90% of your hunts there and it really starts to get dull. The only monster you're ever gonna fight in the ancient forest in the endgame is like, a kush once in a blue moon and a raths. The only monster you fight in Coral Highlands is kirin and tempered legiana.
Compare that with you having to fight:
Nerg
Teo
Luna
Kush
Behemoth
Uragaan
Azurath
Lavasioth
Mostly or only in the elder's recess.

Meant for A true shame so few games allow for such journey into discovering everything nowadays, it's all agressive handholding now

Attached: 1563349885836.png (684x657, 179K)

You could say it's aggressive handling

The only good part of the elder's recess is Teostra's lair because it looks cool and has meteors in the background, everything else is painfully dull

absolutely truth, monhun has that initial clunk that many people can't get past.
but when you do, OHO, when you do

This is the main reason why I hate newbies lusting over meta sets before diving into the fight when the whole game is based on such discoveries

Of course compared to PC but this? That is Base PS4 loading times, i know because i eat my loading times.
That user bought a console at launch, mistake. Let's hope he waits for the PS5 pro next time. Did his parents not give him this advice?

Not him but I would have missed PT if I waited

honestly, the meta sets are only for very niche fights like Extremoth or AT Elders.

I rock a decent crit dmg up/affinity build with the Luna/Xeno DBs, do good damage and never have to sharpen my blades. That's totally fine for 99% of the fights in the game. Meta sets stifle creativity and give people the misconception that they have to play a certain way

I fucking hate teo's lair, the environmental nonsense really gets on my nerves and I honestly think the lava eruptions are rigged for you to walk over them before they trigger. I kind of like the crystalline areas though, they have a very unique look to them.
Honestly my biggest regret is not being able to fight Nerg in wildspire waste like in the beta. That fight was KINO.

On the other hand, tailoring sets for specific fights gets tedious as fuck.

I used to have pretty bad anger issues as a kid, got in all kinds of trouble and fights.

I came across a PSP a couple months later and the got MHF2. The game made me rage hard when I’d get KO’d. Kezhu almost made me quit playing, but finally after losing so many times my pea brain realized that getting KO’d didn’t cause me physical harm or anything and I could just easily retry instead of breaking shit. That and deep breathing helped calm me down and eventually fixed my anger issues. Been playing monster hunter games ever since.
Thanks MonHun Team.

That's why going meta is retarded most of the time, and only the proof that you're a shitter who can't experiment and think by himself.
I keep getting angry at those Drachen-meta following autists who constantly cart when I'm virtually unkillable and still compete with their damage output with my Vaal/Eyepatch set.

They go watch speedruns that make fights easy and never read the uploaders comment that it took them 300+ attempts to master every movement the monster makes.

I have a PS4 pro and the difference between load times on that and my PC is still miles apart.

Maybe it wouldn't be as bad without the deco grind. Once you've got a healthy stockpile of major ones you can be a lot more flexible with your builds, but unless you're on PC it's going to take a lot of time and luck to get there. Even with all the time I've dumped into the game I didn't get jack shit until I started melder sniping and even with that I'm still missing capacity boost, guard up, guard, artillery, focus, pierce shots up, protective polish, etc. And I duped like 300 attack decos before that glitch got patched so I can look really far ahead on the table, it must be really annoying for people who can't.

It's the reason why Vaal is powerful, though. Without it he'd just be a regular old dragon.

>doesn't slowly waddle around as cannons fire
Yeah, nah.

He’s still cool, they could’ve made mid a lot better if they had you fight him in more than three zones, like it would be a nice change if he went to the upper regions of the vale too, and also gave him the kulve mechanic of shedding his corpse suite and gaining a lot more speed and power

Vaal's music is great. The general combat music in Vale is really good too desu.

So does that mean all new maps, or just that they would make the skeletons work by next gen.

Attached: hmmm.jpg (408x286, 17K)

His corpse suit is the reason why he's powerful though, if anything it would've been great to have you tear off the corpse suit, but then he'd go into his final zone and put on a GIANT corpse suit, like rodobaan but cooler.

And give a reason for Vaal to actually do necromancy shit and have an incorporeal ghost effluvia form after killing its husk? Fuck no, have a neet eel.

I like the tune and instrumentation of the Vale's battle theme but it feels a bit weak. It's like the entire song is the intro and it never actually gets to the main bit.

It's good but it's really awkward most of the time
I'm fighting a giant skinless Gorgonopsid inside an area that is literally a giant corpse and the music that accompanies this is some upbeat parade tune

I actually think he's objectively bad despite being a NEET punching bag. A shitty DoT AoE that can't even be naturally recovered from is lazy and dumb, and his AT version cements it by pushing the tick damage to ridiculous levels AND still letting it be stacked.

He was probably an afterthought like Tzitzi

PS4 is so comfortable though it really is nothing but a fetish item. Playing on console is a fetish you insert the disk into the game box and it starts now if only we could realize this and go back to meaty cartridges instead of flimsy blu-rays. Imagine owning this slab of videogame, like an artifact. Words fail me.

His original design might have been scrapped

They will make the skeleton work for next game, and there will be at least some maps where he can live and fight properly.

Both. They’ll probably reuse some maps from World but new ones which they plan on using Lagiacrus and other big boy monsters in will actually be designed with them in mind. Ancient Forest they designed as an environment first and arena second, so besides the one alpha zone he’d BTFO Anjanath in he didn’t fit anywhere.

They're bringing apes and crabbos back in 6th gen too right?

Bros...

I don't dislike him, but the picture really undersold him. If it had been your picture then I wouldn't have questioned buying Tri.

Most likely, I mean monster hunter has like what? 12 general large monster skeletons they base everything off? Give that they finished 3 main ones that 8 left so I could then prioritizing leviathans, monkeys, fanged beast, and frog since those are the other main ones people love, and then everything else including snakes, bugs, crabs is a big maybe

So yea definitely more skeletons but don’t hold you breath for ones that don’t have a large roster like bugs, spiders, and snakes

Leviathans they’ve said will return, and Fanged Beasts are likely too. Carapaceons, Neopterons and Temnocerans are 50/50, they’ve said that they won’t add completely new skeletons unless they have a few different monsters that use it to make the workload and time investment on it worthwhile. Insect skeletons in particular are quite difficult to rig and can’t be used for anything but other insects, which is why they’re low priority for the devs. Also there’s very few monsters using those skeletons already so they’d need at least two original monsters in mind for them in addition to the existing ones for them to decide it’s a worthwhile addition. I want more of all the skeletons added in 4 tbqh, the bugs as well as Snake Wyverns and Amphibians.

I mean, it appears on the trophy for reaching MR6, so i could bet my money on it being the final boss

I hope not, except for Gogmazios and maybe Dalamadur most giant monster fights are a blunder, the best fighs are always dudes like Alatreon or Amatsu

No, Ruiner Nergigante is the quest for uncapping Master Rank in Guiding Lands, which is the new endgame.

What the fuck can a Nerg with even more spikes do that it can't originally?

I love hammer and used to be alright with it, but for some reason any skill has melted away. I used to solo G rank stuff in MH3U (I know that game is supposed to be easier than previous entries). The Tobi whatever squirrel guy fucked me up earlier at the beginning of the game in low rank.

I didn't change my armor but I also didn't expect to get hit. I dunno what I'm doing wrong. I know all the combos and how to move appropriately, it just feels like I can't not get hit sometimes.

Early game always feels way harder than any other part. Is it just me?

Attached: 1564110400830.jpg (640x775, 36K)

It's most likely a Nerg that ate Xeno's corpse so it probably has lasers and shit.

Have different physical moves
Also his spikes might be metallic so maybe it gives hunters tetanus

It reminds me of
>what can Velkhana do with ice that Kush can't already do?

Should've been called Zoner Nergigante

tobi is harder to grug on early game because he likes to jump around, and the tail attacks are surprisingly damaging
just make sure your armor is up to snuff and respect his space when he's mangry.

Tobi is actually a bit of a bastard when you first start out, especially with a weapon with no defensive abilities like hammer.

Orbital strike Nergigante

But Kush controls wind, not ice. Velkhana directly creates ice walls, ice pillars, and cold fog in its attacks. Kush can't do shit that isn't just pushing the hunter away

Fuck that means it'll probably be fucking huge as well.

And from there, it's just a series of great moments. Realizing how armor skills work on my own, beating every monster for the first time, sitting in Loc Lac looking for rooms, MH3 was such a great game to begin with.

I don't understand why they keep Gravios and Basarios coming back. It's one of the worst monsters all games considered and it feels like hitting a wall for 20 minutes.
I'm on MHGU right now and it kinda saddens me that the only monsters included in Ultimate I'm excited to fight are Barroth and Barioth. There's a bunch of elder dragons and deviants, but that's not the same.
MH4U had a better roster despite having less unique monsters. The 3 tigrexes were fun.

So it's not worth to make layered armor with AT tickets? Since all armors can be made in to layered in Iceborne?

It's the gift that kept giving. Every time I thought I was done with the game, there was something else after what I had done. I still play them as single player games because it's that way I enjoy it the most.

Yeah, they also think about how the monsters actually work so when you have unexplained things like Fatalis or Kushala it's actually special

Lavasioth is fucking HUGE

The majority of non-elder behaviour and abilities is easily explained, even in game they say the Guild is like ??? when it comes to how Elder Dragons do some shit they do

>One of them legit runs into the corner and does nothing when we get to teostra

SoS was a mistake, it has encouraged people to let others get them through the game.

>even in game they say the Guild is like ??? when it comes to how Elder Dragons do some shit they do
That's kind of why I feel the whole elderseal thing is retarded.

Yeah he uses to be massive, for some reason they nerfed his size in World

Yeah it's pretty bad, especially as a game mechanic
I guess they didin't want to think too hard on a gimmick for Nergst weapons unlike for Seregios and Chaotic Gore

The dragons should be all fucking magic and be literally unexplainable, I don't know why Handler was so surprised at the mention of magic when some of the dragons just magically manipulate elements

Lore-wise Elderseal weapons come from actual elders, like Nerg who has high elder seal but no powers himself, so it's his way of balancing the odds or he'd get roasted by a Teostra ezpz.

I think in the lore, there's still like ancient tech the Wyvernians made specifically to contain and kill elder dragons but it's semi-forgotten how it works and the guild locks that shit down like area 51

It wasn't delayed beyond the initial announcement for PC before, it just took forever for them to say when it would be out. I think they still announced the day 3 months in advance though.

Don't think so or you'd be able to goon her so fucking hard. Definitely works on the blue fire pools though, no damage from them

Thing is, elderseal shouldn't be a naturally occurring thing because Elder's aren't a singular species or even a real category, it's just a hodgepodge of monsters that don't really fall anywhere else.

>there's still like ancient tech the Wyvernians made specifically to contain and kill elder dragons
It wasn't so much that they had something like elder seal but just that they had some ridiculously powerful weapons like the Dragonator but in bulk.

So considering Jho weapons have high seal it pretty much confirms that Deviljho can prey on weak elders

I want a subterranean sea full of bioluminescent life, and it features a Ceadeus vs Nakarkos turf war.

Heat Guard and Cool Drinks both reduce Lunastra nova damage

Well, elderseal only affects auras of dragons like Kushala, Vaal and Teo, who are obviously distantly related
For example Kulve is an entire different species and elderseal does absolutely nothing to her

I’m pretty sure it’s been stated in lore that Deviljho have been recorded numerous times throughout history picking fights with Elder Dragons, but they don’t mention if they ever won. I imagine against young, sick or elderly they may actually win on occasion, but only rarely.

Hammer was ok underwater

Pretty sure they don't. I tested it and didn't notice any effect. At least any significant effect. Which is a fucking shame, since it's like the only time Heat Guard could've been useful.
It DOES negate the Teo aura damage though, so you can stay up close and don't take any red health damage.

Nah, can't possibly be March.
It was initially slated for a winter release, meaning could have been anytime from January to February. But now they've narrowed it to January, meaning they have a better estimate than before. Unless something serious happens, the release date can only move closer now.

Nothing, it's not a decision I agree with. The art style is still better in every other area than color.

Yes I do. You don't need to think about where you're moving with the insect glaive, just click and hop over everything.

Are you sure about that? The textures are muddy. The particle effects are obnoxiously overdone to the point where they slow down the game considerably. The entire game was designed with the blurry Vaseline filter of TAA in mind which is why it looks so hideous every time you stop moving the camera (Nergi's lair is a good example of this). There are many more issues with the aesthetics of the game besides the grey color palette in an otherwise very colorful franchise.

Don't reply to listfag.

Yes and it's still better than whatever MH that pic is from.

Anyway, do someone remember how early the sandfrog got his copy? I just need to know the fucking roster.

There isn't much to learn about where to get extracts with glaive. Red comes from where they attack (head, sometimes forearms), White comes from how they move (legs or wings), Orange comes from their body (and rarely the tail). It's my main weapon because I just like polearms, but it isn't very complex. Once you've got juice, just make your bug auto-attack and spam tornado slash. It's a bit more brainless than usual in world because good element and status glaives aren't common, so you just pick the one with the biggest number and use the combo with the best MV like other raw weapons except without any of the thought, special mechanics, or commitments some of those weapons have once you've got your buffs.

Aerial attacks with IG do low damage and hit shit hitzones, on top of restricted movement against anything that has the ability to swat you out of the air. You CAN just spam jump attacks, in the same way you can just spam basic uncharged overhead slashes with GS and eventually kill the monster, but that's not how either weapon is played.

I was doing well against Nerg until he retreats to his closed-off crystal palace. Does his attack patterns change?

We need female armors with complete facemasks so I can furiously masturbate

Aside from him taking the time out to bodyslam the barriers, I don't recall a moveset change, is this regular tempered or AT?

fuck...

How's that gonna stop him? His friend Ahmed wo owns a small vidya shop is just going to sell him another copy under the counter early again.

>isn't much to learn about
My point stands, still not easiest weapon to use, you still have to juice up and use your moth were in DB you just attack and doesn't bother with any of this.

He becomes more aggressive and does the dive more often after he reaches certain health threshold (does the wing flap and roars, but that usually happens much earlier than the crystal lair). Also his damage constantly keeps going up as his health goes down.

Not quite, he gets spikes faster at lower HP and he does extra damage as long as he has spikes

No. He literally gets a stacking damage multiplier at lower health/with every roar. Attacks with spikes are a separate thing. Regular Nerg does too.
You can see that at the first phase some people can survive eating a black spike dive bomb, but it becomes a guaranteed oneshot no matter the def as the fight goes on.

My only problem with slopes is that the slide is automatic instead of being a button press while moving down
Most of the weapons I use can't slide while unsheathed though so whatever

You need to do enough damage to progress to the next room. Don't do it solo unless you really know what you're doing, she always has multiplayer HP

I play GS and have a near 100% success rate of being able to release the charge button while sliding at the exact pixel the slope ends.
So instead of going into the slide attack, I just go into the regular draw swing.

It's infuriating.

You need to raise the "pursuit level" to drastically reduce her HP and partbreak thresholds.
You do so by sniffing tracks, breaking parts (which is hard at Pursuit 1), dropping rocks on her, picking up shinies and gold piles.
P1 can only be attempted with a well-coordinated team.
P2 is enough if you're just a bunch of individually skilled hunters.
P3 is okay for the average players.
P4 is required by "special" players only.
P5 is enough for soloing if you're good.

>But then they give you free gap closer with the hook, more pseudo-mounting shits, the moveset is bloated even more
The clutch claw is only a gap closer for the two weapons that can use it after a defensive maneuvers. For all other weapons it's effectively got the range of a long forward evade, which isn't much of a cap closer at all.
Also can you point out what move makes the movesets feel bloated?

>Round 1, fight her and sniff feet until she goes to Room 3, then run around Room 1 and 2 sniffing and gathering until she leaves
>Round 2, break a shitton of parts to trigger her Fury in the last room and then break her horns for real
You can break her coating and chip her horns before the last room but damage to the horns after that doesn't count until her coat comes off

>open helm
>exposed thighs

Basically how KT works that you have a pursuit level that determines how much HP KT has and how much time you have to do it. Higher pursuit level means that HT has less HP and the you have more time. This pursuit level is shared by all the groups in the lobby.

When you join ATKT lobby ask what type of lobby it is. Usually people will respond with either P1 or butt sniff.
If it's P1 lobby you really need to know what to do since the idea is to complete the whole hunt in one run.
If it's a butt sniff lobby it means that during the first run you don't do anything to KT, you just follow her around collecting stuff she drops. If you start attacking KT during the butt sniff run you will fuck the whole thing up. Butt sniffing will raise your pursuit level without any risks and then usually on the second run you go for the kill.

It is also important to communicate when you are doing the kill run because if one group in the lobby clears the hunt the lobby will be marked cleared and all groups will get rewards, but to get good rewards your group has to clear the KT on the same run as the first group does it.

The fact they gave Lavasioth a worse version of his gimmick is salt on the wound

Clutch claw related moves, new Iai slash of LS is what on top of my head
Granted its not THAT big of a deal, it just feel like they are making the moves flowchart much, much more complex. Like, take LS for example again. The fade slash was a combo finisher in 2nd gen, get left-right fade slash in 3rd (well, sensible), then a forward slash in 4th, then in 5th gen it gets the evasion variant, and then now its Iai
It might be good, it might be bad for the series in the future. Personally i dont really like it, cause ive always treated the game as a more sensible and calculated game, not a aggressive, combo oriented game

when joining a session use the filter and search for kulve only sessions, otherwise you're are gonna be the only one trying to do the hunt

>implying rando lobbies has ANY kind of strategic approach to farming KT
They just randomly spam the siege quest and keep hitting her with everything they got, disregarding pursuit level or part breaks.
That is IF they're even doing KT in a KT lobby at all. Usually half fucks off to do SOS, or investigations, or whatever.

Oh and about gap closer, its this

The LS changes baffle me, it's not like the weapon's moveset was not well rounded to begin with, but they decided to add ANOTHER counter to its movelist. It's very odd.
Other weapons that get the crutch claw moves feel pretty good and fit in with the weapon's style, doesn't feel like bloat, more like an optional new thing that with time you'll get a sense of when to use it. Kind of like how you don't always wanna do the roundhouse slash or the helm splitter for LS.

I explained my thoughts more elaborately here. I think every move addition seems to have some use, and it varies from essential and fantastic (like the HH changes) to clunky as fuck (like the bow slinger attack) but none of them feel "bloated" imo.

What the fuck is going on in Hunter X Hunter?

>find out FU for psp, amazing images, excited about killing big bad monsters
>pick GS because wannabe cloud
>unironically "why so slow"
>keep dying
>drop
>decide grow some balls and actually do the tutorial
>fall in love with SnS but choose LS because disgusting weeb at the time

I replayed FU some times ago and call it nostalgia but the game still have a great feel to it beside the shitty hitboxes

I'm glad you can't S.O.S her, it's the only hunt in the game which is reminiscent of old hunting lobbies.

I thought that was Junji ito

That womans face looks nothing like his faces.

That's obviously Franken Fran.

Good points
Maybe im just a bit resistant to changes. I guess once i play IB i would come to like it
And seriously, people can meme about hammerlover Ryozo as much as they can, but gen 4 onward really show that they want to push the LS, with more combochain, then the monster that is brave LS, then this

The current arc is genuinely interesting and well written, but because Togashi is both lazy and an autist who refuses to let anyone else draw it despite having six assistants we only get a volume a year.

I wanted to buy the physical volumes but the covers kind of make me apprehensive about it. Sure there’s plenty of sexual shit in the series but these covers really oversell it and I don’t want the people I live with thinking I’m some pervert.
