The Wandering Wizard Posted May 13, 2022 Report Share Posted May 13, 2022 Come here to discuss the merits of each game and which elder dragons are the best. Which weapon is the best and what do you think of wyvern riding. All are welcome here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eluvianii Posted May 14, 2022 Report Share Posted May 14, 2022 Best weapon? Pogo stick supremacy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wandering Wizard Posted May 14, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2022 The light bow gun is good for speed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orlion Blight Posted May 14, 2022 Report Share Posted May 14, 2022 I always liked the insect glaive, but hammer builds and charge axes were great, too! I think my favorite hame was Monster Hunter 4, that seemed to tick off all the boxes for me! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eluvianii Posted May 14, 2022 Report Share Posted May 14, 2022 I should try charge blade at some point. My closest experience was with switch axes which I enjoyed quite a bit, but then I tried IG and it clicked so hard I haven't used anything else since. It would be fun to at least try to be competent with every weapon though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wandering Wizard Posted May 14, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2022 The only game I've played is Monster Hunter Rise and I started of with the long sword, then eventually tried the bow, and I've been using the LBG and am loving it so far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eluvianii Posted May 20, 2022 Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 So I'd like to join the club of people who hate Plesioth please. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wandering Wizard Posted May 20, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 I haven't hunted one yet as monster hunter rise doesn't have Plesioth to hunt though they might add it in Sunbreak. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eluvianii Posted May 20, 2022 Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 (edited) The guy is huge, but clearly not as big as his invisible hitboxes. And apparently they were nerfed quite a bit, I shudder to think what this fight was like in FU. Best/worst part is that the game is fully aware of the fame he has and happily warns you that his hip attack is annoying. Well it is, and the tail spin doesn't fall behind either. I'm upgrading for now, clearly my LR Astalos armor has its days counted. I'll need some actual HR armor if I don't want this guy to take 2/3 of my life with each hipcheck. Farming Barroths right now.

The Wandering Wizard Posted May 20, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 They are adding astaflos in Sunbreak and Plesioth is a piscine wyvern right? Jyuratodus was pretty easy to hunt in rise but I've heard it was harder in previous games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eluvianii Posted May 21, 2022 Report Share Posted May 21, 2022 I haven't hunted that one but in my very limited experience with piscine wyverns, I may just dislike them in general. Cephadrome is a significantly easier fight but annoying for the same reasons. That and the thing spending half the hunt under the sand. Though I have to thank him, he was the monster that made me try Insect Glaive. I was having a really hard time with long sword, some people suggested a weapon that gave you more height, Aerial IG seemed obvious and the hunt became a walk in the park. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wandering Wizard Posted May 21, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2022 I had to start on another account if I wanted to play sunbreak when it came out with my brother and I wanted to start a new weapon and choose the LBG but my brother also choose the LBG. I think they changed it because Jyuratodus didn't stay under the water the whole time and I could attack it while it was underwater, because then you only see the top half. Do they go completely underwater in the game you play? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eluvianii Posted May 21, 2022 Report Share Posted May 21, 2022 You only see the fin though I can't remember in Cephadrome's case, maybe he goes completely under the sand. You have to wait until they come out or fish them out. I think sonic bombs are the standard for that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wandering Wizard Posted May 21, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2022 You can always shoot a part of Jyuratodus and it never goes where you can't shoot or attack it, so I think they fixed the piscine wyvern class in MHR. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wandering Wizard Posted May 26, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2022 One of the most annoying monsters in MHR right now is the crimson glow valstrax which is a variant of the valstrax that attacks with dragon energy as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eluvianii Posted May 27, 2022 Report Share Posted May 27, 2022 I'm still working my way up to his original version. I think he's supposed to be Village's final boss? I don't know, first time I've come this far. I have no idea how flagship work. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wandering Wizard Posted May 27, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2022 (edited) It's a oversized griffin that zooms at you really fast so be ready to dodge. The only flagship I faced was Malzeno and he wasn't hard. Narwa the Allmother was harder and the crimson Valstrax was a little easier than Narwa but they were about the hardest monsters that I have faced in MHR. I HAVE DONE IT. The crimson glow valstrax is dead and I have the armor I want from it. I also got two orbs from the valstrax from quest rewards when I was playing with my brother but I had to leave. I didn't get the part I wanted then though. Here is a meme I made about fatalis. @Eluvianii Edited June 2, 2022 by The Wandering Wizard 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eluvianii Posted June 3, 2022 Report Share Posted June 3, 2022 Ha! A hunter fears nothing. ...well, except a bad meal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wandering Wizard Posted June 3, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2022 Well they would say scud or they would try to cut the tail as fast as possible as that will cripple a monster with a tail the fastest. Have you heard about the new switch scrolls coming with monster hunter rise Sunbreak? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eluvianii Posted June 3, 2022 Report Share Posted June 3, 2022 I have, though I'm not entirely sure what they are. I think I heard somewhere that they were partially based off hunter styles but I haven't actually used them. Maybe I should play the demo again and see if there's something there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wandering Wizard Posted June 3, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2022 The switch scrolls allow you to switch between switch skills in the middle of battle leading to larger combos for more damage to monsters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eluvianii Posted June 3, 2022 Report Share Posted June 3, 2022 Huh. So they really are turning the series into Monster May Cry. Not sure how I feel about that. Well, I guess nothing's set in stone until the next actual mainline game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wandering Wizard Posted June 3, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2022 What is Monster May Cry that makes it similar to what they are doing in Sunbreak? As I've never heard of that game before. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eluvianii Posted June 3, 2022 Report Share Posted June 3, 2022 It's not a real game, I was mixing the name with Devil May Cry. Basically there have been some worries that Capcom will get away from the more slow-paced, high risk high reward, kinda sluggish combat the series was known for, and make it a lot more action oriented. Closer to a hack and slash. It's not inherently a bad thing, but there had already been comments that Rise is too easy because of all the mobility the hunter has, so if it just continues to go up. Well, as I said some of us are just a little bit worried. Rise is part of the portable series though, which has always been flashier and more experimental, so who knows. Maybe 6th Gen will surprise us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
