someone tell me how to move save from switch -> 3ds in MHXX

...

>he thinks it's 3U
lol!

>tfw no Monster Hunter World on Nintendo Switch

POST MIX SETS
manliest of manster hunters

I'll get ntrboot soon, i promise ;)

...

those are some neat skills, but can we get a full view of that armor, i can see it a little and it looks great from what i can tell

Anyone know how to get more of the charms that change drop rates in MHS? It's been like pulling teeth getting any info for this game.

>he uses Hunter Art shoutouts
>he didn't actually edit the shoutouts

I don't get it.

>carefully mastercraft a set to get Dragon ATK +8.9
>don't even equip a dragon element weapon
Absolute madman.

>when you're playing MHXX and some weeb joins the room with an english written name but its of a japanese name and they spelled it wrong and then you become the weeb for knowing japanese names

it's literally full mantis

Nigger, what the fuck is wrong with the apex grudge deviljho, every video I see has it sitting like a retard for 30 seconds and mine autistically moonwalks every 2 fucking seconds

lmao

i've only been playing 4u but mantis looks like a real interesting monster

I heard when you get 50 points in dragon attack your weapon becomes a deviljho

kek

9 gets to pick my super nova hunter art shoutout text.

Is he drunk. Whats he even saying.

I tried cheating with save states and it's impossible to force a rare to appear. That's actually neat.

I did notice though that if you do anything post kill, it can shuffle the rewards.

>destroy a stone
>rewards change

>kill add X
>rewards change

>kill add Y
>rewards change

>kill X and Y
>rewards change again

No idea, maybe he's talking about the US reaction since people were saying they thought "cloud" was a name of an expansion while some idiots thought it was a FF crossover.
Japs are pissed because its streaming only like the 3DS version of DQ10

Heh... nothing personnel

Omae wa mo...shindeiru

Us teaction to what

reposting in memory of lost save file

The monster is boring as fuck which is a shame because both the concept and visual design could have made a really cool one. The armour is just them shooting themselves in the foot just like with transmog. They took the worst game in the series and removed any reason to grind the endgame by making one monster:
>easy as fuck
>fast if you know what you're doing (a single pierce HBG can tear through it in a few minutes, a few make it sorta feel like watching a troupe rehearse an hourlong play in ten minutes shit happens so fast)
>give the best charms in the game and be the only source of them (apparently there's a DLC quest that gives them now too, so at least there's that)
>give the best general-purpose armour in the game, which can be tailoured to literally any set of skills you want
>give some of the best (when not outright the best) raw weapons in the game
>be the best source of money in the game with the most valuable common parts
Basically almost every public hall was grinding mantis when I played because there's no reason to hunt anything else besides progression and checkmarks, the latter of which like 1% of players give a fuck about.The game isn't really fun enough to justify hunting for the sake of hunting, so at least for me once I got all the mantis shit I had a profound sense of "well now what?" that I never felt with past entries, even when I had every set I ever wanted, or in the case of 4U every craftable armour piece because I decided to be a true completion autist.

PSO2,

>Us teaction
It's two in the afternoon GH, should you really be drinking right now?

How the fuck do wynstones work, I've done so much damage and it does jackshit

Is there any sort of relic system in XX or is every weapon in the game craftable?

>sets that actually look good
>not trash that you're desperately seeking validation on because you know it's really a clownsuit but you refuse to compromise on skills
what the fuck!!

Different wystones do different things. The force wystone increases your damage against frenzied and apex monsters. The drive wystone prevents your attacks from being deflected by apex monsters. The element wystone lets you apply status and element damage from your weapon on apex monsters (who are naturally immune to it).

Is there a theme that captures the essence of a monster better than Amatsu's theme?
This combined with the spooky howling it does, it's perfect.

Every weapon is craftable but since mantis armour is so charm-oriented charms are much more important. Of course, you grind mantis (or subquest out of an event brachy) for charms so it all comes full circle.

so in your honest opinion /mhg/, do you think the Veeky Forums curse got to us?

Its sound design is a leading reason that Amatsu is a contender for my favourite monster. It's between Amatsu and Kushala, guess I like my hurricane dragons.

>the Veeky Forums curse

I'm doing the arena apex deviljho, I've done the same amount damage or even more than this canter guy. And it fucking stays in apex

>he doesn't know the Veeky Forums curse

What's the Veeky Forums curse? You mean discord? Yeah, it got to us.

Are you actually hitting the weak spots? If it's jho, you shouldn't be hitting anything excepts its legs. If you don't hit the weakspots then it takes much longer to knock a monster out of apex.

I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that it means that after a general has been alive for a long time, there comes a time when people are left without things to discuss and the general goes to shit.

If that is correct then no, I don't think that is what has happened to /mhg/
I think the thread went to shit the second MHW was announced since it rekindled the somewhat dormant consolewar faggotry that was always present.
That and an influx of /v/ posters result in the thread constantly arguing about the dumbest most petty shit possible.
TAutism vs playing for fun
muh anime vs muh realism
Frontier vs Mainline
muh casuals vs muh hardcore games
Sony vs Nintendo
and so on.

I'm repeatedly hitting its left leg

Reminder that the only people left itt are turboshitters who enjoy braindead ez games like XX

Must we do this every thread?

>someone will ask you to post proof of you soloing a G rank Hyper
>someone will post that webm of the Asian guy who plays with 2 3DS at the same time instead of proof of themselves actually killing something
>someone else will ask for proof of solo 140 GQs
>someone else will bring up Frontier
>at least 20 posts that are just greentexting and reaction images

Don't you get tired of this shit?

Eh, fuck it, I've soloed white and red fata, that's good enough, fuck this shitty ass CHALLUNGE mechanic
I did much damage to the leg more than speedrunners and it doesn't work
I hope who came up with the apex can go burn in fucking hell

I've gotten tired of xxbabbies' shit so I might actually trudge through their worthless game and solo their braindead ez hypers just to shut them up and end this shitposting

We look forward to your "legit" super Bloodlust and Azurebolt solo runs.

Sure thing buddy.
Keep us updated.

In 4u it is best to hone lances for attack right?

Not him but I disagree. Every thread has two sides it seems.

>People who want to discuss things
>People who want to shitpost, anime post and ridicule posters who discuss things.

/mhg/ has people with good ideas posting and then there's the cesspool posters who are doing it "for the lulz", most likely people from a avatar-poster program in the OP that I won't name. To them it's all one liners and acting like they're the coolest kids on the block for being retarded. They will do their utmost to NOT talk about Monster Hunter or any of the games and instead try to divulge the general into talking about fucking animals, what a monsters asshole smells like or which little cat from the anime they want to stick their dicks in, you know, because that's what an 8 year old finds entertaining to read.

When you confront their shitposting by stating what it is, they drop their avatar-program meme's on you to which a normal poster has no idea what any of it means. They scapegoat and have really nothing to say or to prove it to be otherwise.

Ironic shitposting is still shitposting.

>good ideas
What are these good ideas?

I usually just reply to people who are actually talking about the game, asking for recommendations or whatever.
That means I need to ignore at least half of what is posted here but what can you do? Veeky Forums got too big, moderators just can't do their job anymore.

The event is mining coal, you kill the brachy for the subquest.

Hows your Riding Life going /mhg/?
Tried online, but only played a few low level people. It was nice to get easy fragments but I just wanted to have a fun fight, guess I should wait a bit for people to level up.

Good ideas for topics to discuss. What do you think he meant?

hunting some high rank Hyper Astalos, JP Switch version of MHXX. join if you want some bitch ass hyper astalos scales like me

61-0916-5665-8093

three spots open

Apex removal is stupidly based on motion values, some animations give them more armor against MVs. Hit it when ita not doing an attack and if you're using CB or GS, use the charge attack.

I didn't think he meant anything. I just wanted him to elaborate on his statement. Could help give stuff to talk about you know?

2 spots

With hunting horn online, when I enter a zone and fight starts, should I run to the monster and start playing songs or play songs I need first out of battle and join the fight then?

Fight while playing songs

Where's your 140 apex deviant proof fag

Working on Silver Los and Kirin, once I have them I'll have a full team of end game level 1's and I'll run through the rest of the side quests and post game. Pretty good wrap up.

Thanks fof the advice but I'm not stressing myself out on a shitty apex mechanic it's either I deal the damage needed but it doesn't do shit or deviljho moonwalks for 2 minutes

Being a passive aggressive cunt sure is an interesting topic.

This. Know your songs, fight the monster in such a way that you play those songs. It's not as hard as it sounds, and it's optimal since strikes that hit an enemy produce more potent notes that those that don't.

NEVER Corner Horn unless a monster is being mounted

When is it too late to rule out a XX localization?

I know there's a mostly-translated version of the 3DS version, but I'd like it on Switch without the whole referencing other websites for translations things.

Kinda expecting/hoping Nintendo picks up the game to market their online service to hardcores.

How's best wyvern serving you so far

>apex
>shitty mechanic
XXshitters, everyone

If it comes out it probably will a while after world

I haven't got to use him much yet still, been getting him levels in the tower. Seems like he'll be nice though, his bleed is good damage and he has a nice attack stat.

>Finally find Gypceros
>Instantly spots me and flies away
>Follow it to the next map
>It lands, then instantly goes up
>Does the Rathian glide attack which takes ages
>Lands in the out of bounds area
>Does tail swipes against no one
>Finally charges
>I cart because I can't deal him with a lance
Why is Gypceros such an asshole?

No one mentioned XX, friend.
Perhaps you need to improve reading comprehension?

MHFU is the easiest game in the series. Just make a heavy bowgun and you win.

Lance against charging monsters is a pain in the ass unless you have Evade Extender to chase them with

He has no excuse, everyone had to deal with apex, only gen/xx shitters complain about it

That's fair.

I'm assuming we might be waiting a year after the JP version's Switch release.

Depends on the hunt, sometimes it's useful to play songs before everyone enters the area but most of time you should be playing songs mid-fight, especially in Gen/XX with the double notes.

It's just an all around awful creature.
>Flashes you
>poisons you
>runs around like a retard
>lol Rath tail spin attack forever
>looks stupid
>so does its gear

It's a monster no one ever wants or really needs to hunt, unless its ugly ass is required in the materials for something better.

he lied to you, it's actually never coming to the west

I've been playing Monster Hunter since the original on PS2 and I thought Apex was kind of a shitty mechanic unless you were using Greatsword.
The idea of a monster entering a powered up state and that you have to knock it out of it is cool. The idea of most of your attacks bouncing is not.
Same reason people hated Fatalis in 1

>so does its gear

I agreed with you up to this point.
The stats and skills are shit but it looks cool.

Male armor is literally fatman

@189225501
I don't know if bait. HBG is amazing in FU as is GS and hammer too.

Gypceros and Yian Kutku are some of the toughest to fight with a lance. No countering makes it even harder.

And then he steals from you! In G rank he doesn't poison you, he gives you Toxic. If you break his face he doesn't flash anymore, he spreads toxin instead that pushes you far away. He's just so annoying. But goofy as hell. He's the first monster that I can remember that not only made me angry, but had me laughing out loud how he runs.

HBG feels too powerful for very little input (except excessive dosh if you're using pierce) in FU because of the slow monsters

I just want someone to notice me

Cute huntress girls are the only good thing about the monster. It, and the subspecies don't need to exist.

>No countering makes it even harder.
Why ?

Is there an easy way to get zenith gems? I'm too much of shitter to kill apexes

Why does rathian look so much better than rathalos?
Everything from her spikes to her wing patterns blends in so well as opposed to rathalos chunky spikes, the reason rathalos looks good in world is because they made him more similar to rathian

Because you can't at least get a free hit in every time they pass by while charging agross the room repeatedly

I challenged this deviant for the first time expecting something as easy as Arzuros and it absolutely fucked my shit up. All my weapons bounce off him, and each swipe takes 1/4 of my hp bar. Am I supposed to come back with late game gear? Or is there a trick or critical weakness that I overlooked?

Need some pointers on how to deal with this guy, relatively new to this game so any hint would help.

Superior Gunner Breed>bladelets

I just use aerial and jump over it

>world isn't going to have redhelm
WHY

please give me some more pointers senpai

Aerial lance/CB/SA is my favorite style,
but later enemies bat me around like a tennis ball. I thought I needed to guild/adept to progress further into the game.

if you're still getting baited, the only tip I can give you is to study the monsters move sets more

Deviants are largely optional, the few low rank versions there are a considerable jump up in difficulty for where they're at. You can certainly take them on with rank-appropriate equipment but unless you have fun fighting it there isn't much tangible benefit though, due to how their equipment progression works.

Aerial is overall the weakest style.

Try The Master's Test.
