pres_madagascar 02/06/18 9:19:12 PM #38 | Dragonblade01 posted... Insect Glaive often gets overlooked by new players because of kinsect and essence management, but it's a very fun and flashy weapon. The thing is, I'm a newcomer, and I find it far less complicated to learn than the charge blade, which I still have trouble with. A basic tutorial online and fucking around with it in expedition has already given me a solid grasp of how to use it. It's actually an extremely forgiving weapon for new people. 1) the speed and agility of dual blades lends to being able to dodge and move around easier 2) longer reach like other 2h weapons also lends to security of avoiding attacks 3) vault is yet another way to avoid enemy attacks by being airborne, also makes it easy to mount monsters. 4) has DoT damage which helps. It takes more time to learn than the basic weapon types, but isn't anywhere near as complicated as some of the other technical weapons, and is super forgiving. It really let's you control the battlefield better. It's also easier to manage elemental damage on due to being able to change elements on kinsects. I'm currently rocking the poison staff with the poison bug. Oh yeah baby. --- |
Topic | As a relative newcomer to the monster hunter series, my thoughts on world |
pres_madagascar 02/06/18 6:57:15 PM #34 | Y'all For real. Insect glaive is fucking amazing. Officially new favorite weapon. Agility and speed of dual blades, shit loads of ultity, good damage, easy mounting. Can also be used to heal groups if you forgoe some damage. Yes. Yes. --- |

Topic | As a relative newcomer to the monster hunter series, my thoughts on world |
pres_madagascar 02/06/18 4:34:15 AM #28 | Damn, great sword is sick as fuck. Sure you aren't anywhere near as agile as with dual blades, but especially with this 420 damage bone greats word, i wreck face. I did a great jagras in half the time as with dual blades, and it's fantastic for aoe on small monsters. Only thing is it seems to lose sharpness easily. --- |

pres_madagascar 02/06/18 12:41:11 AM #27 | I tend to prefer melee stuff anyway lol. Dragonblade01 posted... You mount monsters by doing attacks that do "mounting" damage. Every air attack does mounting damage, but even some attacks from the ground for certain weapons can do it as well (such as the bow's lunging arrow attack). Oh hmm. Didn't know this. --- |

Topic | As a relative newcomer to the monster hunter series, my thoughts on world |
pres_madagascar 02/05/18 11:29:18 PM #23 | Dragonblade01 posted... The main reason people recommend the bow over the bowguns is the fact that you don't have to manage so much different ammunition and make sure you keep reserves up. In terms of actually using the weapon, the bow is much more particular. But range affecting damage made Mr never touch it. --- |

And honestly, the training room doesn't really do a good job teaching weapons. I had to take them all on expeditions and just play with them against actual enemies. I f***ing love the dual blades. Quick strikes, dodging, etc.. The fast style works for me. Yeah, expedition seems to be the best way to try out weapons since there's no time limits or anything. --- |

pres_madagascar 02/05/18 10:45:07 PM #15 | Dragonblade01 posted... There's actually very little reaction when it comes to using the greatsword. It's too slow for that lol. The greatsword is awesome because of how good it feels when you predict what the monster will do and then bash its head in with a level 3 charge. Oh man, that sounds awesome. I love that there's a weapon for every play style. I don't get why everyone says sword and shield is best for newbies, it feels so useless damage wise. --- |

pres_madagascar 02/05/18 10:39:02 PM #13 | Dragonblade01 posted... The greatsword has always clicked for me. Love the weight of the weapon. And the bow feels awesome to use in World. And yeah, that's a better strategy than forcing yourself to stick with the sword and shield or light bowgun. It's so much more fun when using a weapon that works for you. My reaction time sucks as I get older lol, so the quick strike and dodge setup of dual blades works well for me. I need to try out greatsword tonight actually, dunno if the slow style will work for me, but I wanna find out. --- |

As the research for a particular monster ranks up, it'll give you tons of information like breakable parts, element and ailment weaknesses, weapon type effectiveness for each part, drop rates, etc. I've been picking up every single bit of monster data in the world i can find.

pres_madagascar 02/05/18 9:42:58 PM #1 | A) I adore the structure of rhe game. I can play for a little bit and still feel like I did a lot. Which is awesome with my busy schedule. B) I actually prefer not to marathon the game even when I have time to, playing a few quests or hunts then going to another game just feels better for some reason. C) it took me a stupid long time to find weapons I liked. Everyone recommended sword and shield for newbies but I honestly hate that weapon. After much experimentation I found that the dual blades and longsword are my best weapons, especially dual blades, the fast agile playstyle suits me best, plus the demon mode is awesome. Once I really dug into dual blades I hit my stride. D) the learning curve is definitely no joke. I'm still figuring things out lol. Not a bad thing, I love this games complexities. E) this games community is excellent. I often send SOS flares just to make fights harder and it's more fun playing with other people. People seem so eager to help kill monsters. F) exploring the world is so much fun. G) I still don't know exactly how best to outfit my palico. I've been just giving him whatever armor has most defense and switching between the poison bow and this big ass mace depending on what I'm doing. All in all I'm having a blast and see myself playing this for a long time, especially due to that structure I mentioned really supporting playing just a bit and still getting shit done. It's the perfect game for people who have busy schedules. --- |
