Oh good march/april looked fucking retarded this year, so that's cool with me.

Yeah tanks are very well balanced overall, there's some downsides here and there but they're generally compensated(Living Dead but also The Blackest Night). Gunbreaker is also fun to play so that helps, although it's quite button bloated I feel they could have used switching keys and shit...

I feel like one of the very first quests they tell you you can go in the tent? Don't remember for sure.

I did gloam grass for a bit but now that I have like 700 of them and I have yet to use one I switched back to standard stuff, atm might seeds since I dipped to like 400 after using a bunch every hunt, but it's really whatever you need at the time.

It got a shit ton of nerfs and... is still probably one of the best weapons in the game. They buffed elemental damage a ton and bow is basically king of that with DB, so yeah. It didn't get much new stuff though, only the claw shit I think, so it's one of the "more of the same" weapons. 10 mega...

Man I didn't expect Kirin changes, loaded up a tasty 4gold 1silver investigation and got carted 3times in a row like an idiot, on Lance no less. Had to slap in a bunch of defensive shit(stun immunity and some thunder resist, as well as actually putting maintenance jewel in lightning mantle) and...

Iceborne does provide things, mostly weapon changes and the new claw, but you can just play the base game fine since it wasn't balanced around the new shit anyway(and with the defender catch up gear it kinda doesn't matter either way). So find the game on sale and try just that, there's plenty...

They might have higher base for smaller monsters, I guess? I didn't really notice Jagras being particularily different than MR Jagras, but MR Jagras is a lot tankier than HR jagras was(even with relevant gear) so maybe that's that. I did Kulu and Tzitzi and they kinda exploded as you'd expect...

They don't, they have scaling hp like everywhere else. Might bug out if people leave and join not too sure but I've been doing it solo and the fights take the normal amount of time(about 10mins, some longer due to bullshit, some shorter when there's shit going down with multiple monsters beating...

Well currently the best speedrun weapon I think is the weird as fuck PS4 only LBG from Horizon Zero Dawn, it puts you at 1hp but does ridiculous damage if you keep the right timing. But that's really just speed running though. Even in the original HBG wasn't necessary, it made farming Kushala a...

For like a few hours on the first day, uber hillock spawned in the act 6 beach, so you could constantly reset spawn him by entering the zone and back to town over and over. I think it was fixed in like 8hours or whatever but ppl who lvled quickly got to exploit that a bunch I'm sure.

Every job being good is for the most part true. Obviously not every job is equal but no job is so bad that they can't get content done, especially casual content, the differences between the top tier of a given category and the lower tier is generally within 5%, with a few outliers that...

As pointed out not really, and animations often have a "backswing" like in dota where if you don't input anything else they take longer but if you do input another command that part of the animation is removed to combo into the other, making it more annoying to try to wait. There are skills...

Eh not really, hitting the monster's ass until it stops moving will get the job done. You can however capture them at low hp, which saves you like 20% of the boss fight but doesn't work on everything(elder dragons can't be captured although that only starts late into the story). Sleeping...

I mean there's a shitton of side stuff that's really not important to do until endgame/until you want achievements. You can kinda truck along doing the main quest and maybe looking into sidequests that have interesting rewards(mantles and palico tools mostly since they make things easier). Every...

Yian Garuga is 3, the Scarred version is 6 but the only notable thing it drops over normal version that I can tell is the one special mat you need for some augmenting. You can absolutely farm Drachen full set without killing Behemoth unlike mentionned previously, there's a guide in the reddit...

Well yeah that's like lvl 3 though I meant for higher, but I've been looking at the list of gear and upgrade mats so I kinda know and you can have more than 1 region at 6+ so should be fine I'll go for brute tigrex "quickly" get the shit there then drop that and focus on keeping forest at 5 for...

Melding is more random shit, you just need to get lucky. Which really means you need to play a lot, you won't get decorations otherwise, so you can't really follow meta guides early on and you'll want to use some armor/charm that give you the necessary skills versus shit with 3 sockets where you...

Yeah it was the same with Xeno, although Xeno was overall a lot easier. I wasn't gonna spend time farming shit just to kill one boss though and it wasn't THAT bad overall since it only took one wipe, just long and the first phase feels like there's 0 risk of dying(at least with Lance I barely...

Man the "last" boss was a super cunt as Lance but wasn't much better when I tried with Switch axe. Fucking 10hits attacks with high damage, literally better to take it to the face than press block cause if you block it'll kill you from full(if you have full stamina). And he has a couple of...

Fun fact, you don't have to kill anything until Elder Dragons. Also they harp about "balance" and "ecology" a lot in the game, you're not mindlessly murdering everything in your way, you're there to fix shit due to some really bad monsters doing bad shit. Article got people riled up and is...

Well it's just great quality of life since you don't need to sharpen constantly/mid fight. You can kinda get by with just the razorsharp charm(you get it for the 2nd purrfect sidequest for house decorations on acid glav) and then anything, but that's not that much better and using narca you can...

Yeah other than lance clunky ass shit, so far the new things have been great. Hunting Horn is night and day tbh, I had started playing with it a bit before Iceborne after seeing it was getting buffed and while it had some fun aspects, it mostly boiled down to hitting one of 2 attacks on the...

The original was review bombed too, then it went back to positive over time. I don't think Capcom cares that much that people who can't play are review bombing it's pretty common. It does seem to affect a bunch of people, and the other more nasty bug that deletes your saves when you first launch...

There's a post on the steam forums that details how to get it back that "should" work. Apparently the big deal is that anyone who hasn't logged in a while didn't have the new type of save file and starting Iceborne it doesn't convert the old style properly, so you need to force update it using a...

I've been trucking along until Tigrex, fucker wiped me a bunch of times. I'm fairly sure he'd be a lot easier with Lance but had a lot of trouble landing clean hits with HH especially when he's enraged. Eventually still killed him though and figured now is a good time to upgrade my armor cause I...

Have to clear it once before you can do that, at least on PS4 not sure if it works on PC haven't tested yet. Game is trying to tell me to go back to Lance, first lvl 4 deco I dropped is Offensive Guard+Crit Eye which is really fucking good.

Yeah you have to turn it off in the DLC options. I removed them earlier today cause I figured it'd be possible they'd just download automatically and it wasn't worth it, can turn the download on while the game is playing.

Download started for the expansion btw, 40gb + the installation process but should be up in time.

That's the last monster in the base story so once you're done you should be ready for the expansion(more or less there's a bunch of stuff to unlock but you can unlock them later.

To be fair the rustle still stands, if Amazon sends you an obviously automated message about answering questions on the product, and you don't know the answer, then don't fucking answer. This is 100% older people who don't get it's automated shit and they don't give a shit if you answer or not...

If you give them a bit of fire damage they might kill stuff with ignite, which should give you credit if it still works that way. Similar if you can get them to do some poison or bleed, although that's harder since those aren't natural ailments like ignite. If you use Brutality on them you're...

The story has a few "siege" encounters yeah, the expansion also has them. They're nice to do once but they're fairly horrible to farm which made Zorah one of the worst monsters in the end. There's also the larger multiplayer encounters in endgame that have a bunch of phases and mechanics, in the...

That looks pretty pointless but also very cool and liquid cooling consoles means you don't get the faulty airplane noise shit going on whenever you play a bigger game. Wouldn't buy an expensive system like this so close to the release of the next gen though.

I mean you can also edit your gold using the save editor so you can fix that if needed, I posted a link to it a couple pages back in the spoiler that has a bunch of mods and what not. For meta stuff, this is the reddit thread that has all the meta sets: You then cross compare with the weapon...

Oh right I've only been looking at assignement monsters but there's probably a bunch more unlocked at that point. I guess I'll look into it once I'm playing, shouldn't be much of a problem to get armor anyway, just feel Nargacuga is probably a good point to switch since it's a fair few quests in...

I did my preparations but it wasn't all that much, mostly looking up weapon progression for Lance and Hunting Horn and seeing what are meta weapons and which ones upgrade from LR/HR weapons and crafting these in advance. It was a bunch of Bone weapons though, some Bazel shit that I already had...

When the game releases they'll have a bundle with both the expansion+base game for a full game price(60euros or whatever it is in canadian dollars, the usual). They can't release that in advance for whatever reason though but you can get the preorder bonus(which is just an armor skin nothing too...

There's items but you use them as you need them rather than on cooldown, and even then you'll generally only have a few items you'll want to use on a given hunt(healing potions obviously which come in various sizes, attack buffs that you pop before engaging the monsters, maybe some item to clear...

I mean it removes every delve mods but you still have the core mods, so it's still a bunch of garbage and bound adds the reduced reserved mana also. Also if you want +3, it can still roll +1 and +2 minion even if it rolls the right affix. Still it shouldn't be too hard, generally it's just...
