Had a quick blast last night and was able to switch between several game hubs, all teeming with players and quickly/easily accessible (for the first time, in my experience). Quested with a few randoms, traded guild cards etc., was a larf. Hasn't worked for me before, wondering if Capcom quietly sorted it...?

the new patch **** all over Heavy Bowgun, nerfed slice dmg (now doing 2-8 dmg, very random on crits hit weak points), nerfed inventory stock and although they say they increased Normal, Pierce, Element ammo DMG, but im going to have change my def gear to make up for the lack of damage N/P/E do without specific buffs... means farming elemental attack charms and making new guns i hadn't planned on.
I my mainly pissed of as it means i have to take more steps to make N3 and P3 ammo and extra inventory space.

damage was below most weapons which is why so far in the ranks it's placed 11th last week and currently 9th as most used weapon (speak to the yoda likes out in the field after you start elder hunts for rank usage by the players, long sword is the most used), with slice being the only competing shot unless you get ahold of end game maxed out charms and ammo booster sets, as the recoil/reload and damage for N/P/E was well low for DPS.
I think most other users are happy as slice when used by idiots knocks people down, but then every idiot with any weapon can trip and knock. For me it means more daily work to make level 3 ammo, and long term projects to build guns to cover the elements, and knock 4 of the 5 azure rathian armours out.

I think i've finished the main Story as of HR15, after a number solo tries as for some reason this fight was the only one i couldn't get people to join via SoS and you can't join others in the search as for story purposes you don't know the name of the monster you are fighting.... think i went through 400+ rounds so pierce 3.
Of course there are afters,
you get given a real hunter rank, i assume based on rare gear made and research levels which put me at HR29 straight away and opened up brute hunts which are purple iconed monster which are super hard hitting and almost always in enraged mode... got one shotted from melee charge of the B52eeze with 400+def and 150 hp...
so i'm going have to rethink my gear back to defensive again and give up the improved damage set i built for elemental and pierce shots.
mostly likely start looking at using other weapons now, maybe a nice hunting horn set

Still just messing around on this rather than cracking on with the story, but I'm having fun and that's the point, eh?
Made the Hornetaur armour to access the mists, but fortune shone on me and I avoided all mists and monsters to bag the Plunderblade.
Did a couple of tests on lower monsters and it definitely chips more bonuses off them, but there's no vigorwasp spray to fall back on.
Anjanas still kicks my ass solo, but I'm getting closer.
Got a watery long sword I've got my eye on. Just need some more Aquasacs.

getting a lot of session disconnects over this weekend regardless of joining or creating my own sessions which seems entirely MHW server related (judging by posts from others all over the web) as i have zero problems with anything else i'm playing online, it doesn't help that the monster HP doesn't drop back drown to single player levels. Its also super **** you can't just reconnected in fight..
