Gotta agree with the support NPC hunters are bonkers. They are way better than some of the human players I grouped with. I was shocked when I saw one of them flashbanged Rey Dau so he couldn't fly away. Also the mount is really good if you know how to use it in combat. When I need to heal up I summon my mount and ride around until I'm fully healed or if I need to sharpen my weapon. I have to also test if I can summon him if I'm incapacitated on the ground. Also 1000% on the SnS. That weapon can do so much it's ridiculous. I use that and the Chargeblade. Thinking about trying bow in the near future.

Have some time thinking about this title now… it’s still incredibly fun and addictive, but at 40 hours I’m hr64, maxed weapons and armor and now just have… deco farm? Seems like a really short game with little compelling reason to grind through 100+. To say nothing of the difficulty, just feels kind of unfinished.The magic of MH still exists here, theres just not enough of it. I’m sure in another year plus it will be fleshed out, but I could swear even base MHW had more release content.

You're missing my point. That is a fully kitted out dude end game fighting a monster with full knowledge of its abilities and timings.

My video is a guy spamming a completely mobile base attack ability and due to guard slash can reset and chain it infinitely which can be done at HR1 until forever. It requires no set up, no timing, no gear and you will mow through everything at no risk.

The Monsters AI Never changes, notice he is keeping Basarios head in view in order to see what attacks are coming(another words he knows he is safe and can constantly chop at basarios weakpoints, his legs/belly are them).

If anything, Capcom really needs to go thru and update some of the AI on the monsters. (Not just throw a new variant in but give them actual new moves.)

SnS thing will probably be nerfed but *shrug* any weapon can do that if you know the monsters AI.

I agree and we (hunters) are too powerful with our kits now that it's making fights that took time to learn trivial. I didn't even realize some monsters had certain abilities until I spent time checking various weapons to see if everything could be guarded/countered. I would have never known if I just kept fighting them normal cause they just fall over and I've not even farmed out my end game set yet. Infinite combo loops should be gutted on all weapons and SNS isn't the only culprit here. I'd like to actually put effort into learning how to do my runs clean/speedy and not just do it by default <_<.

Not sure why but I find everything easier without them. The AI is really cool though, feels pretty natural when they're around.

went through most of the classes from Halnirs cave, then orcs, and stopped at 18.
Dont like HC ghost from the ironwoll mob wipes and sudden spawn and fort is so boring. Have a 25 tank parked at the mountain top EP 'wycan' camp that was not very fun.
The sight of manor was quite pleasing, I wished they could somehow expand it more so you can have different lvl brackets of groups involved spread into 30s. I see people parked in EP and never logged back on, the charm seems to just die when u venture further out.

I've only had enough time to do up to Ajarakan and boy was that an entire shit show. Whole fight was about 28 fps and a gigantic pain in the ass with all the stuff flying around and not being able to hardly move. Hopefully don't have to do anything else in that area. Especially with the 2 of them on screen at the start. Basically unplayable.

It is so "wild" since World was amazing and ran great. Don't remember having a single performance issue at all.

Having your starting area be a poster child for "too much brown" doesn't really help either. It runs like crap and you're looking at nothing but desert and blurry rock textures.

World did not run great at launch. It wasn't THIS bad, but it had optimization issues that took about six months to get right. Now it's smooth as butter and looks as good as Wilds.

I feel for you guys that can't run this but I'm getting 60 stable, which is enough for me to enjoy.

I think the lighting is what takes the toll. This game really does look amazing. Hopefully they work on optimization.

I suck shit at this cause while y'all are finding this way too easy tempered arkveld is having his way with my slow great sword wielding ass.

Tried sns this am and I get why some would think the game is way too easy lol.

Yeah I haven't carted once as sns main, but the minute I switch up to Swaxe or GS I carted a number of times, haha. I think after trying all the weapons at a reasonably high level, sns is the best weapon (even better than gunlance) in this iteration by a good distance. Literally no downside, multiple easy combos, great at creating wounds and great offset move. Quick, mobile, can face tank, does the same dps as db's but a ton more utility. Honestly, it feels overtuned. Going to shelve that as it makes everything trivial and focus on something else.

That's odd. I'm in there now and always when the game loads up.

Yeah I had to go back out to the main menu b/c I have no idea htf the menus work in this game. Then joined Private Lobby, Squad Lobby or whatever and am in there now. Makes sense, for some reason thought I was already in it when I logged in.
