The Monster Hunter Thread: A Whole New World

I beat up Bazelguese with Great Sword. It’s not that bad. Just gotta know your openings.

Arrived in the Guiding Lands w/ Lance…

Welp…
Time to grind mats for various stuff, lol.

Bow file start on Monday, maybe.

Made it to Blackveil Vaal before calling it a night.
Time bust out the efflivum gems and MR Giros coil

After so many times trying to break its head for Tenderplates (you need to do it twice for the bonus items to drop), I’ve finally built the Shara Ishvalda HBG. Auto-load on Sticky Ammo 3 is OD. Opens up a lot of customization slots I’ve had otherwise had to use on both recoil and reload mods. Also means I can drop Ammo Up for other skills, like Attack.

Most unlucky thing to happen to me so far (spoiler warning for those who haven’t cleared the main story, also if anyone’s curious, you can actually look over the edge to see what it’s doing).

DAMN!!! :astonished:
That some shit!!

Switch axe is the definition of style over substance. Where as its counterpart Charge blade is style AND substance. Switch axe honestly feels broken in areas where charge blade succeeds.

Switch axe big damage move takes so long to execute that dps wise. You do more with sword mode combos.
Where as Charge blade’s is done in one single hit.

You’d think a weapon with no guard, would make up for it with mobility or defensive techniques. Switch axe says fuck that. Aggro all the time baby! Where as Charge blade has a damn shield

Switch axe has no reason to exist with charge around.

Speaking of “The Chad Blade!!”

Just one Blackveil Vaal piece away from making argubly the best Charge Blade in the game…

Savage Jho is way worse for Hammer. So much fucking area denial. And if you fuck up you’re in real danger. You have to iframe a bunch of his attacks.

Just finished the story for Iceborne…with help from a solo Japanese random.

The second phase of the final boss fight…

…That shit still has me shook.
We got lucky due to a clutch claw attack finisher from my longsword.

Second form is gonna catch people out for being aggressive. It’s got a lot of moves that have follow ups that can catch you if you’re not looking out for them. You think it’s done, but it’s actually still doing something.

Yeah It caught me several times that way.

But about the final boss’s gear and weapons, I heard its HBG and CB are ridiculously good!?

Having the set bonus almost gives you the same effect as the Rocksteady Mantle.

The HBG (which I’m using) has auto-reload on both Sticky 3 and Pierce 3, 450 raw, and 2 level 2 deco slots.

Auto-reload on sticky 3 and Pierce 3, DAMN!!

I’ve basically just about retired the Jho HBG because of this.

Finally unlocked the Guiding Lands!!
I’m going to try and see if I unlock ZInogore today.

I’m currently at MR 39

PSA: Not only do Garuga Greaves Beta+ have Crit Eye 2, 1 level 4 deco slot, and 2 level 1 deco slots, it is also best for thot fashion hunter, especially when combined with the Thermae layered waist.
