Never do SOS Nerg.
NEVER.

Bazelgeus is no joke. Flying Deviljo is kind mental.

I don’t know what I’m doing wrong but I’ve been running low on zenny. I’m too broke to make the equipment I want.

If you have it:

Have the ship bring back Trade Materials.

Phantom_Angel · February 4, 2018, 11:22am

I’ve noticed that too. Probably running too many quests with other Hunters as it splits your rewards.

Gasaraki · February 4, 2018, 12:52pm

Do investigations. Better/more materials and money

I see some people recommending cultivating might seeds on reddit.

FrostyAU · February 4, 2018, 3:12pm

You always want demondrug/armorskin. You cultivate what you need though. You’re going to go through a lot of honey, lots of bitterbug, you’ll probably need plenty of parashroom/sleep herb as well. Lately I’ve been cranking Ivy and Spiderweb. Prior to that I was cranking Devil’s Blight and Mandragoran for the real good stuff.

d3v · February 4, 2018, 5:11pm

I meant people were recommending might seeds to get loads of zenny.

FrostyAU · February 4, 2018, 5:15pm

Ah, yeah I missed that part of the convo. I haven’t had money problems. You get so much money even after buying the power and armor charm I have heaps.

You’re goddamn right. What you know about rolling up on Anjanath on some Maximum Spider shit? I’ve built a lot of my character around this weapon, making sure she’s mobile enough to maximize its potential, but I’m still waiting on my goddamn Marathon Charm.

Eskills · February 4, 2018, 6:26pm

Some triple monster investigations give 40k or higher.

Yuna · February 4, 2018, 7:16pm

So the bow is a fuck of a lot of fun. Hitting the Hidden Missiles on big monsters is really rewarding.

EDIT: I found the armor I want to use for the foreseeable future. Aquatic Expert, Muck Resistance, Jump Master, and two levels of Marathon Runner are the abilities it gives me, and as someone who mains insect glaive (ignore the bowgun on my card), having a ton of mobility and preserving stamina seems like a good idea. Glaives make it easy to mount, and if I have really low stamina degradation, I can ride that bull for longer, right? Stands to reason.

My armor looks cool as fuck, too. Also, is it just me or does this game have surprisingly good world-building? I didn’t expect to be so immersed.

Hawkingbird · February 4, 2018, 9:02pm

I love the look of the odogaron armor. Gotta have my girl rock a kunoichi outfit.

Upgrading my Kinsect with paralysis has been great. Been getting lots of mileage out of it in group hunts.

2-D · February 4, 2018, 9:06pm

Yeah a youtuber came out with his showing how you could make “bank” cultivating and selling the fuckers.I just use bandit mantle and when I’m low sell everything.

Gasaraki · February 4, 2018, 9:53pm

Yeah I’d much rather use the farm to make shit I need like demon drugs and max potions, not just for selling.

AH NEED MUH DRUGS AND PILLS BRO, AH NEED EM

Spirit_Juice · February 4, 2018, 11:46pm

How dare people people have fun with things I don’t think are fun!

Hawkingbird · February 5, 2018, 5:20am

After all these years Diablos is still a massive pain in the ass. I will always hate fighting that asshole. I haven’t joined a Diablos quest yet that hasn’t resulted in at least one death.

DANZAN · February 5, 2018, 7:20am

I should try to be nicer to people online

FrostyAU · February 5, 2018, 9:36am

So I’m just walking around and there is a fucking Black Diablos. I thought my eyes were tricking me but there it was. Once I realised it wasn’t a graphical glitch and was an actual Black Diablos I almost shit myself.
