Anyone happen to have a G-Rank Yian Garuga guild quest? I have nothing of note to trade... except gratitude =).

Is the Felyne and Melynx dual blades worth investing in? Low base damage, but two slots and 150 elemental, and great sharpness!

Also considering plesioth cutlasses, currently on leader's shotels

I have to say I'm loving the story in this. I'm not a story guy at all, at all at all, but man I'm having a lot of fun with this one.

Much better than Tri/3U

I like how their "sharpness" is so high when they look like stuffed toys.

Anyone wants to help me take down 1 molten tigrex? I just need 1 more scale+ for my next weapon upgrade. We can do whatever after that.

They're the paralyze ones right? I haven't used them but those stats are somewhat like the Chum-Chum Scarecrows in 3U that I used. Usually one demon dance was enough to inflict the first paralysis, it was completely insane.

Hey, a question:

If I complete a higher ranked quest online by being a passenger with some better players, will it be marked as completed when I eventually unlock it?

Also, what are the various icons near the player names when in a quest? Like a small blue shield for example, is it to indicate a buff?

During a quest, are the player icon colors the same on everyone's screen?

I'm thinking about setting phrases to be able to target players individually (eg. “Player with BLUE icon,” + “get off the head!”).

It will.

And yes, those are usually buffs. If their weapon icon blinks that means they're in combat. Good way to see where the monster currently is if you're not in the same area. Just follow the color on the mini map.

Yes. The guy who picked the quest from the counter is always red for everyone, the next guy who joined is always another color, etc.

I feel like I'm missing something as there seems to be no way to check what the skill my kinsect gets on evolution does. Like yea, speed up (l) is self explanatory but the other one is speed up (m) and extract efficiency up (s), what does that dooooo is that the time buff?

I just did all the caravan 10 missions I could (up until Fatalis/Savage jho) and now I can't seem to unlock anything else, do I need higher HR (haven't unlocked G missions online yet)?

Yep. More unlock when you reach G1, some more unlock when you reach G2, another batch unlocks when you reach G3, and the final quest unlocks when you do every caravan quest.

Thought so, Thanks.

Rath Soul set is one of my favorite "template" sets in the game. It functions well with nearly every single blade master weapon on its own, and with the help of a decent talisman and decorations can be even better.

That set will last you through early g rank.

I see. It may worth a shot then.

Depends on your defense stat and how you're doing in general? If you're dying to HR7 monsters easily then chances are you're gonna get wrecked in G Rank.

I don't really have a problem but as I mentioned the really low Fire res is annoying.

How do I reliably break Rajang's horns? Need the Ghoulish Gold Horn. I've tried Barrel Bomb L+ x8 (with a teammate) and they still don't budge. Using CB, but I can do any weapons.

Yeah sometimes i wish this game was on the PS4, i honestly don't care what Japan likes. Imagine 1080p, 60FPS, better textures, better view distance, AA, better controls and better online.

I will get Toukiden Kiwami but it won't be the same quality as this awesome series.

Basically you want to use a good hammer and traps. (Just make any hammer with 1xxx Atk if you can)

Start by laying down a shock trap and pound&baseball swing the head a bit.
Then use the pitfall when he's angry.
I have very limited hammer skill and no fitting armor so I just packed mats for another trap and kept pounding his face. You can easily get times within 5-10min with a somewhat decent hammer even if you suck royally.

[Edit Addendum: Then you cash out via the break the horns subquest]

Here's a (bad quality) video of some guy doing it in 1m30s.

Can do the same with a bow:

^ this didn't work very well for me. He moves so much when he's in a pitfall trap that you sometimes hit the air. And you also bounce off on his arms when he's in rage. Generally Rajang is such an unpredictable dickwad that I found it really hard to cheese him like that so I went and whipped out my trusty glaive and learned the fight and broke his horns without much of a problem. He's quite resistant to mounting but if you do get one in you can get rid of one horn quite easily. Got two hearts and that horn after only three kills.

Black Blos anybody? Can do it with two.

Guys, what does kicking do?
Click to expand...

Exactly that. A kick. Useful for hitting a teammate who may fall asleep or is paralysed when your weapon isn't out. When you have your weapon out, it performs a different action for each (GS does a kick that lets you get to your Strong attack, or morph in Charge Blade).

God I love that gif.

I mean while true, graphics are not the sole source of quality, gameplay is important. For a $200 hand-held with graphics that haven't moved passed 1998.

It's funny, I was playing this game last night and I thought "People think this game looks like a PS2 game? Seriously?"
