Hey, R&D is tough, man. I bet they had their best people on it.
Also the Prowler gathers even faster and can basically be the team's packhorse. Also has a Gathering skill for getting even more items. =)

I'm still at 3 star quests and I'm using it fine. Coatings don't really cost much (8z for power level 1 and 13z c range etc). I also take the free empty bottles and poison coatings in the quest box too so i have a ton of those

odd choice that none of the 4th gen monsters like kecha wacha etc show up in village.
This is huge!
I knew there were some changes, but the Hold A + More Per Node is life changing!
Discovered that completly by chance earlier. This is such a little thing that changes so smooth so much the gameplay ♥

Hmm thats good. Im considering going with bow from the start.
wait you can do the arts without touch screen!?
If you have a Circle Pad Pro or New 3DS. Just change the z trigger options to have them execute arts 2 and 3.
I tried to go back to MH4U recently and I had no idea what I was doing anymore. I used that insect weapon too. Which I really liked but now I am like lost how I was going to upgrade it. I would also like to try the multiplayer for the first time, new game should have more players... I am trying to decide, if I should run to the shop and get this latest on or not.

yeah im not really having an issue with money atm. I have the Jaggi set and Moshgarl set for my Bow and Maccao for blademaster stuff. I bought like 600 power coatings and 400 c range coatings and still had about 10k left.
I don't understand. No G rank? So is this difficult or is it baby mode if you've played MH before?
Also no Diablos
How long have you been playing MH? A lot of the games don;t have G rank. Anyways, it is easy but the level 10 deviants should provide a challenge.
Diablos sucks. Good riddance to them.
Yes! Kokoto may have been my first MH village but I have the most nostalgia for Pokke. It'll be nice to chill by that fire with the elder and Nekoht again.

Am I reading these charts wrong? It seems like there's less than 4u.
Been playing since Base 3 and I can't remember if that one had G rank but I thought the others after that did.
Sad to hear it is easy but I'll be day 1 regardless.
Tri had no G rank. Only two of the five games (including Generations) since then have had G rank.
There are over 70 final form DBs there. That's a huge amount when compared to other weapons I've mained (like the charge blade in 4U).
I remember when I first played MH3U on the Wii U 2 years ago and he was BRUTAL.
Now I look at him and laugh.

And there's an Item Box, bed, smithy and armor shop in the multiplayer hub?
THIS GAME IS A DREAM COME TRUE.

I think its R + A + B.
BTW, MHGen DB app was just released a few hours ago (Android):

Thanks. I've only casually played the demo so far and haven't experimented too much. Can't wait.
Are we counting the Max Level of each weapon too? Because it sounds like, for example, Maxxing out Petrified Daggers for example, gives you Scholarly Daggers.
I was not. There will be a lot of farming in my future.

Yooooooo!!!!
Yup. I think i'll try maxxing out all the Dual Blade Variants.
I count 100 or 101 about.
Ain't got time to go to another weapon set!

A'ight, I don't have time to play this but I'm gonna go on and buy it now. Fuck, man. My backlog is so ridiculous and a time sink like MH is the last thing I need.
Also, just watched a Great Sword (my main!) tutorial for this game. I'm sticking with Guild Style. I don't want to give up any of my charges.

I was considering swapping jaggi for ludroth to get Stamina recovery. Granted i need a charm to seal the deal.

Seems even better, has arts that help with exhaust and stun. (You can KO with sns now, thats nuts). + theres oils you reapply throughout the fight, that give you extra abilities. ie 30% crit boost.
GaijinHunter outright says SnS is OP in Generations.
If GaijinHunter says so, you can be sure he is goddamn right.
Keep in mind that as a small but fast weapon, you better use the right element against the right monsters.
Honestly, with all the items a SnS user can easily use during fights (including bombs) on top of the newly added Oils, playing SnS basically makes you the Witcher.
Can't wait to hear some of that sweet sweet pokke music
your hunter title isn't getting enough appreciation.
OT hype!
Just finished farming Mizutsune armor set.
Took the gunner head piece for fashion though!

As much as a i love GH
( I mean, i straight up fangirled when he shared some of my darksouls/nioh stuff on twitter)
Community is generally getting weird when it comes to taking every word he says as the gospel truth.
Like aerial switch-axe hype coming from "GH mained it in village, must be awesome, so im going to main it too!!""
edit : Since when did Gore armor give evasion o_0
I just assume most of them are kids. They tend to latch onto everything a youtuber/streamer says and does.
Absolutely has new moves. He almost feels like a different fight compared to previous landlocked lagi battles.
Quite common for armor sets to give different sets of skills across different games.
Ping will also release an updated version of his MHX Dex with all localized names tomorrow. Sneak peek:
One day I will convince him to implement the interactive maps I've been fantasizing about but today is not the day :v
Also if any EU folks are interested, I'm giving away an eShop copy + home menu design code.

I'm not sure when he will release it, I've sent him the finalizing pack of data an hour ago. If OP wants to add the link to his site: https://sites.google.com/site/pingsdex/pingsmhxdex

I've learned to take a lot of what he says about weapon balance with a grain of salt. He has a ton of enthusiasm about every weapon in the game, and sometimes he portrays something as amazing, when in relation to the really top tier stuff, it's mediocre.

For every person asking for tedium to be removed, you have a random fan swearing that it "adds to the experience."
Isn't this just the same speed as crouch gathering? Only difference I'm noticing is I don't have to spam the button, but I'm not actually saving any time am I?
Some people actually complained to me that the hold-to-gather mechanic made the game even more casual lol
