Monster Hunter World

[hudson]

I might just do optionals, SOS, then look for tracks whilst randoms are doing the quest

[J0e Musashi]

You can't do that. It has to be expedition.

[hudson]

Actually, you can. So there!

Yeah, it's how I completed Ancient Forest.

So one of my friends has decided that he wants to be a bow player all of a sudden. I've tried to explain to him that bow is a specialised style and needs a lot of planning. He doesn't seem to care about that, only that he has the Archer's Dance III, which not only is far from a beginners bow, is not for general use and he only got because it can be forged from the smithy without going through a lot of the tree. He has no idea about how anything in the game works and isn't even rocking a charm.

We get into a hunt and he dies three times before I've managed to break anything due to him not being able to take the aggro off of me. We don't need a second bow user anyway. This game is all about learning, and he doesn't want to learn so he won't be hunting with me again. Jaja.

I main long sword and have done abit with charge blade. It really helps to learn the monsters moves to be able to land those big hits.

If I was using dual blades I could just go to town.

I know the elders now like the back of my hand, to the point it’s easier solo.

I fitted a gem to my gear last night that boosts dmg of none elemental weapons, well worth it. Had no idea that you can get gems that give boosts that only normally come from set bonuses.

It wasn't like that before...now you just need one level and it activates, used to be that you needed +10 to activate a skill, then +15, +20 for the next levels.

Cheater!

I found enough footprints to progress the story and unlock the next mission.

I actually found the last set of footprints to sate the adviser's desire to investigate a new monster whilst chasing after that second monster in our hunt last night.

My advice is find the clues, leave the expedition, go to a new location and repeat until they say you can stop.
Otherwise you get lured into doing stuff, as is the MH:W way!
"Just one more gourmet mushroom and I'll finish up. Ooh a Rathian!"

Were you on the mic last night? I couldn't hear you if you were, which is why I didn't switch mine on.

Hehe. MH: world is terrible for that. There’s ALWAYS some distraction to investigate, and it simply MUST be investigated otherwise the curiosity will drive you nuts

Yes, sir!

In-game comms. My tag flashed up every time I spoke, so I know it was working.
I always prefer to talk, if possible.
Probably for the best last night as I was effin' and a jeffin' at dying so much.

That's why I'm level 13 Hunter Rank, when everybody else is rank gajillion.

[kryss]

I'm still rank 15 if that makes you feel better.

Meowdy-do!

What are playing about at! Ha ha ha!

MrKirov helped me get to Rank 13 last night.

Had a bit of a binge today; finished my Odogaron set, got the first line of Nergigante weapon, and then ploughed through the terrible trio and the last boss. Jumped straight to HR 29, beat the quest to unlock that too, so now I'm at 33 and beginning the slog up to 49. Still loving the game immeasurably. Been cleaning out some LR quests too, which gave me this unintended speed kill on a poor unassuming Tobi-Kadachi...
