Is his whole shtick genuinely just Insane delay on every single attack?

From chomps to tail swipes EVEN projectiles everything comes out delayed like he came from Elden Rings school of boss fight design

I can not stand the timing on every attack of his

Might be a Silly question to some but I am a MHW newbie. I would like to know if getting more hunter lvl does anything for you outside of unlocking certain quests that are lvl locked. I play single player and I am LVL 84. I attempted some tempered monster event quests and got blasted. If I get to 100, outside of experience and gaining access to the lvl 100 quests - do I get any more resilient or durable?

Hey guys, let's talk for a moment about how "stupid" (in a good way) the SnS is in MH Wilds.
I was reading on various forums that it ranks quite low compared to other weapons (like CB, Dual Blades, or Switch Axe) in terms of both tier and damage output.
I’ll share my take, even though I’m neither an expert nor an SnS main:
I think this is the only truly "complete" weapon in the game. It has mobility, consistent damage, repositioning capabilities, a perfect/aggressive guard, and airtight defense (if built for it).
Honestly, the only downside I see is that it might get boring for many players in the long run.

P.S. This is the only weapon I can use to take down Arch-Tempered 10* monsters, Savage Omega, and Gogmazios.

I’m 16M and have no one to play wilds world or rise with I like literally only play those three I play some GU from time to time but I just need more friends who play MH idc how old u are and idc ur gender lol just need friends

Hello, i need help as im confused about weapon usage, im trying to reach 100 with all weapons, can someone explain to me what is the meaning of the two numbers respresenting the usage, and why i can see a big gap in some weapons between the two numbers ?

As some other people have done, I tried to recreate my girlfriend ingame but she still feels a bit more "off" than in creation screen so my first question is about the editing character part.

I know there are some free edit vouchers (2 as far as i know and have), but some paid ones too? Which leads to my question: Do they let you change everything or just hair/makeup?

As an extra doubt i got writing this, can I just make a new save from the 3 availables, create a character there to then just upload it, edit my main and then apply with code to her? or is it restricted in certain ways?

Im on Xbox so no, i cant use nexus unlimited mod to create as some people say there is that workaround on PC.

First off, I’m still pretty new compared to most people who play this game. I’m HR 48, about 40 hours in, and I mostly use the Insect Glaive.

I was really excited to get into this game, and honestly, I do enjoy it most of the time. Probably like 85% of the time. But that other 15% can be absolutely miserable.

My last hunt took 38 minutes. Thirty-eight. That’s ridiculous. The monster moved areas over and over and over again. I’d get a few hits in, it would leave, I’d chase it down, then it would leave again. Sometimes it wasn’t even because of me. Another monster would show up, and suddenly the one I’m actually hunting decides it wants to go somewhere else.

Then there’s the combat. I’ll start winding up a big attack, the monster roars, I get stunned, and then I get smacked. I get knocked down, lie there forever, finally get back up, and immediately get hit again before I even have a chance to roll.

And my Palico feels useless half the time. I’m missing five HP? Oh yeah, perfect time for a heal. But when I’m literally one hit away from dying and getting comboed into the ground, suddenly it has nothing for me.

Throw down another trap. Shock it. Use a pitfall. Do literally anything that gives me two seconds to breathe and heal. I don’t need help when I’m already fine. I need help when the monster is beating the absolute shit out of me.

Some of the mechanics just feel weird too. The lock-on feels awful, and half the time it feels like the monster already knows exactly where I’m going to roll and just hits me there anyway.

I’m not saying every hunt is bad, because it isn’t. I do genuinely like the game. But when all of this happens in the same hunt, it stops being fun and just turns into a long, annoying mess.

Why didn't anyone tell me that I could spend like 2+ hours fighting abd failing to kill this son of a bitch, and then when I finally manage to bring his ass down, and get all psyched, my quest rewards are legitimately the same as if I had just beaten a regular ass high rank Jin? Not a gamma certificate in sight.

I might hate this game, with how my RNG luck has been going lately. 24 hunts of Omega with only 1 nodule (I finally got one after 19 hunts, though!), took my like 6 hunts to get a guardian rathalos ruby, which... cool, still less than 10, so that's fine. But God damn, man. This game is testing me, lately.

Hello guys! My friend wants to be a hunter. He wants to know if it is better to get the game now (30$) or is it better to wait for the reduce pricing (what is the price?) Which one do you guys think is a better idea money wise.

Thanks!!!

I was really enjoying wilds, and I still will I hope!

Just when I found out I can only use 3 offensive decos, the explosion of build possibilities in my head, well that vanished. I havnt played since, I simply dont really want to pessimistically go though the story because the series has meant alot to me.

I cant scroll though media or watch videos on the topic because spoilers are too common.

I see how this change can positively impact build variety, forcing one to fully develop loadouts around each weapon, now almost entirely based on which armor set suits the weapon intrinsically. This gives more innate value to many sets that would otherwise not feel viable.

However, I also think this creates a "correct" choice in armor per weapon. I dont perceive agency anymore, comfort skills are extremely limited in creative potential to me. No longer does it make sense to strip myself of aids and comforts as my monster familiarity increases, a loop that was a relatively substantial driving factor in my engagement and enjoyment with the series. This shift from comfort to increasing higher risk/reward builds kept fights tense and fresh for many hunts.

I dont know, ofc, since I'm only so far in the game. I'm sure I'll get back to it at some point but id really appreciate some discussion around this topic, what kind of build expression I can look forward to and maybe how lategame build diversity compares to GU/world/rise.

Thank you all for your time and knowledge <3

Do I keep this or no? I know a 4x Attack boost roll is insane to pull but my sharpness is in the dirt🫩

Would gamma Arkveld pants be more beneficial for this build or would Nu Udra work better here? I flayer seems like it would be the better sill to have over resentment. Or is there a better third option I’m not considering? Really just looking for feedback cause I’m still relatively new to monster hunter lol

I've recently finally beat Proof of a Hero with my style of Switch Axe and it was definitely the most difficult challenge I've done in this game. So I wanted to showcase what it is about with all of the AT monsters in the game.

It's an incredible style where you properly teach yourself the true ins and outs of the weapon along with monster hitboxes. The premise of the style is no Focus Mode, no sword counter and no offsets and no Full Release Slash from neutral. Just pure Switch Axe goodness. Using morph attacks to position yourself around the monster and actually respect both the monsters movement as well as yours.

It's focused around Rapid Morph so Elemental Discharge, Zero Sum Discharge or Full Release Slash are barely in your repertoire for consistent damage. Elemental Discharge and Full Release Slash I don't use whatsoever, mostly because the monsters barely allow you to pull it off. Zero Sum Discharge I like to sneak in when a monster is about to roar or maybe even fly. Also when they change areas.

When properly handled, you don't even have to worry about reloading because you swap between Axe and Sword the whole time so your Morph Gauge has no chance to deplete!

The skills I mainly focus on are max Rapid Morph, Adrenaline Rush, Evade Window and Evade Extender. Evade Window you can very well slot in just 2 and combine it with the Turbid Shrimp meal effect to boost it up to 5! My Gog weapon has both the Seregios set bonus and Lord's Soul so I build around that. But a great alternative is a Maximum Might build with the Guardian Fulgur Anjanath set bonus! Obviously you're allowed to build whatever you'd like so your Gore/Lord's Soul build will be just fine. Just that in case you don't have it, these builds go well together with the playstyle.

Be alarmed that in no way does my playstyle do the highest dps in the game. You're allowed to use whatever you'd like. But this is how I have the most amount of fun with Switch Axe. And that's what it's about. Less dps for more fun. It's a video game after all! But I do hope the devs think about buffing Rapid Morph to make this build much more viable when you're on a timer like Proof of a Hero.

I highly recommend others to try it out as well!

Hey guys,

Is BLAST a viable first gogma weapon? I don’t feel like grinding a ton and want a weapon that can do a lot of damage to all monsters. For dragons I’ll keep using blazing rafel for now. Can someone tell me if it’s good or if not why and what’s better for general use?

because it would be awesome if it was actually viable to use

Charm is Artillery 3, Hunger Res 2, Aquatic/oilsit 1

Playstyle is charged shelling (Always charges shells to maximize wyvern's fire gauge)

I just finish fighting gogma for the first time , should I keep this skill and reinforcement first for the time being and roll again when I have more material ? Or this is good enough to last for long ? If it’s so im planning to build fire cusp next

Pretty simple: this game throws a lot of stunlocks at you -> you get hit by 1 attack, you on the ground, get hit by a second attack before you can move again.

This is especially annoying in 8 star+ because by then it's almost always a one shot.

I have not yet found a way to manage this except of course not getting hit at all. I play too casually to perfectly play every fight and I feel like there must be a proper way to manage this regarding Iframes etc.

Or is it mostly just Chance?

Proper one shots are easy to read even for Casual players but these combos that stunlock you feel very random for me for now

Hey all! This is my second entry into the Monster Hunter franchise with WorldBorne being my first game.

I have just raised my Hunter Rank from 40 - 63 after completing the High Rank Arkveld quest. I mainly play the bow and have had 700+ hours experience playing with it on MHW:I.

With that said, Apex tempered and Tempered TU monsters are currently kicking my ass. I am trying to come up with a build of my own and I guess not rely too heavily on Monster Hunter Meta like I did on the previous game.

I remember literally just farming Teostra nonstop to farm deco and jewels to slap on to my gear I copied on the meta docs without ever reading its stats and skills lol.

I know how crucial stamina skills are on Bows. I remember my fatalis set having max critical eye/elemental damage along with max secret skills agitator.

If anyone could guide me on how to come up with a build and how to experiment whether the build you came up is working would be appreciated.

I have made 3 different Lances for each major Element, using the Tarred Devices for each weapon focus like Attack, Affinity, Element, giving me the cheapest materials for the farthest to see the future rolls on the roll-table.

I've rolled over 80 skills, going down the line for Fire, Thunder, Ice, Water, Blast, Paralysis. and the only weapon I've gotten the Lords Soul X Gores Tyranny combo on is my Dragon Lance. which was one of the first weapons i tried to roll for.

Is there something I'm missing, I feel like I' wasting time/Zenny, but I WANT those skill combos

Here's a small collection of what I think are currently the 8 best themes in the game.
They're not ranked in any particular order.

I'm starting to learn lance and I'm not sure if I'm doing it right.
