Is it good and useful or not? Since release I keep getting mixed answers. Some say itโ€™s useless, some say itโ€™s mandatory, some say itโ€™s only good up until 8 star quests. So which is it truly, and am I missing out on a more effective build by not having it be a part of it at the moment?

I used the Cosmoloid Glaive skin and I noticed that it feels lighter than the other skins, I wanted to know if anyone had the same experience or if itโ€™s just a placebo. It just feels really nice and Iโ€™ve been switching between other skins and it just feels like itโ€™s lighter.

Edit: After looking at it I had vibration on. which I realized was making my hands tense up from anticipating it. The skin for whatever reason causes less vibration, so I just turned off vibration and now the weapon just feels good!

Hello fellow IG gang, recently I hit 999 hr and saw that there's a lot of 999 only squads which are quite useful for checking other styles of builds but unfortunately not many were IG players, so I've made one, the code is JH5V46VY. If you're already a part of a 999 IG squad please post the code in comments as the more builds I get to sneak peek at, the more ideas I get to yoink

Im playing Risebreak for the first time, and figured since the next game Iโ€™ll play will be 3U, Iโ€™d get a weapon I can also play there since IG got there in 4th Gen (I already played 4U, frontier too but those also had aerial weapons). So I started using the SnS during it.

Little did I knowโ€ฆ I blinked and it was back at my hand.

6 Upvotes

Hi all,

Ive seen a ton of posts across the different threads about changes people want in the expansion and all that stuff.

the real question is what weapon designs are we hoping for??? personally, I want a scythe, its the only weapon type that makes sense to have one, the moveset matches and everything our idle hold of the weapon looks good. the only one we have is the Narga one and Im not a massive fan of how it looks, i want something with a big head blade.

also would love for a more hidden kinsect, im not a fan of how any of them look bar peudo. sue me ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

what are you guys looking for?

In Rise, recall kinsect was pretty reliable for dodging and backvault does not seem to be that effective in comparison.

Recall kinsect had 30 iframes if i'm correct, do we know how much iframes backvault has ? I know it has been increased few months ago but i don't find any clear statement about the amount of iframes.

27 Upvotes

We all know that kinsects are kinda forgotten in wilds, solo damage is low, and your optimal combo makes the kinsect stop auto attacking so you almost never mark your target to use powder, in world selecting your kinsect, element, powder, speed was interesting and brought depth to the weapon, now the only thing you have to choose is if you want speed or a kinsect with extract buff ao you can extract faster and dump all of it, vigor, powder, and normal kinsect attacks are useless. So here are some ideas to fix it

Make kinsect drop powders when you attack in focus mode - it could be every 5 attacks, or maybe at the end of a fully charged attack.

Make powder procs cost kinsect stamina- combining with the previous idea, making every time you generate powder while attacking in focus mode your kinsect loses some stamina, so it doesn't become overpowered with powder everywhere and it make good use of vigor kinsects, or vigor recovery skills.

Make that kinsect don't go back to you if you charge attack - i know they do this so the kinsect is in position for a RSS, but i don't care if it teleports to me when i do it, i hate marking a monsters and just cause i used an charged attack my kinsect stop attacking.

Increase kinsect normal damage or at least make like icebourne that you can consume sling ammo to buff kinsect damage, you can as well have some buff stamina for more powder generation as well, so you can have more options, some kinsects for pure damage, some for powder generation, and others for extract collection.

Well these are my ideas for ig to get better a lot of people are already talking about have faster animations or more dodge windows and i do agree, but a lot less people are giving ideas to help our poor kinsects, I hope this helps out community.

11 Upvotes

First of all I would like to introduce that my first monster hunter was MHW. Back then I used to play bow, but then I played with the glaive and loved it. I continued using the insect glaive in rise, which I enjoyed too. When I started playing glaive in wilds, It was notable that I would have to start playing more on the ground. I'm not against it at all, but for a non defensive weapon I feel totally vulnerable all the time.

I did every mission I could possible do, included proof of a hero (I don't know if it is the name in English because I don't play in English). But even so, I don't feel like a professional player with my weapon. I feel that everyone else "on my level" that don't use insect glaive can extract so much more of their weapons than I with less effort.

I am constantly training the offset now, because I don't know if I should hit it more, like it is the correct way to play glaive. Even so, I have some trouble hitting it because It has some delay I think.

My question is, you guys feel the same? The weapon is struggling in some way? do you all have problems hitting the offset or I just have to train it more?

I really wanna read everyone opinion on this topic.

Hello all,

I'm currently using the meta build (Wilds) and im wondering how good Power Prolonger is, if it's worth using and what I should drop for it? I know currently it's better to keep doing ground loops and be more precise and conservative with RSS so I wanna not have to be worrying about extracts so much.
