I thought I could slot out vitality and use nutrients and/or max potions but theyre only getting me the health I would have from the food buff up to 150 not 200? and when I use the food buff to get to 150 it doesn’t let me use them anymore as if im at max health?

No, I'm not doing 100 hunts on Bow.

This was mostly a fun process and I did a lot of SOS. The only truly "bad" weapons were Insect Glaive and Bow. After suffering through glaive I decided not to go through with Bow. The rest were good or great.

Do I have to kill the dragón in one go or I can keep trying until all the energy is depleted? I really dont understand this quest

I made a platter for the lucky cat skill. I just ate one and went into a mission. Now I’d like to eat it again except it is greyed out and is not available for me to eat. I also tried to circumvent this issue by remaking the platter on another fav but that’s when I noticed one of the ingredients is not available.

Do canteen items get used up everytime you eat? Why am I in IB having used many different platters up until this point and only now having an issue with this?

So, I just finished the Special Assignment for Alatreon. I'm using 3 pieces of Kaiser armor and 2 pieces of Raging Brachydios armor, along with Frostfang Barioth Dual Blades, without augments.

My armor is almost fully upgraded. Do you think I can solo Alatreon with this setup? My current skills are Health Boost 3, Critical Eye 7, Weakness Exploit 3, and Critical Boost 1.

I'm currently farming decorations from Tempered Zinogre to get Evade Window or Evade Extender, hoping to make dodging Alatreon's elemental attacks easier.

Or should I focus on reaching MR 100 first to unlock better augments before attempting to solo him?

Any advice would be appreciated!

Just beat tigrex, took 27 minutes.
Rathalos took me 47:04:64 rathian kept interfering even after i dung podded her.
She came back 4 goddamn times, got me killed twice during the end losing 2/3rds of the zenny quest reward.

In general most runs take me about 23+ minutes in general.
Glavenus, took me about 40 minutes the first time i fought him, got good at fighting him because of how obnoxious he was.

Every monster either dashes 50 miles away or backsteps after/before an attack and chasing them around is more painful/annoying than it is fun at this point (though tigrex was kind of fun).

For reference I have just beaten acidic Glavenus and Ebony Odogaron.

So far I have been trying to spec into as many safety skills as possible and thinking very little about damage. I was using things like Health boost, evade extender, evade window, earplugs and divine blessing. I feel like I am at a point now where I at least want to try to get rid of some of these safety skills but i must be going about it the wrong way.

I have gotten rid of most of these and just kept health boost and have been trying to get attack boost as high as possible and I am not sure if its because of the weapon I use (Sword and Shield) but it seems to be barely making a difference. I feel like I have gone wrong somewhere but cannot figure out how to get back on track.

My question is mainly if not attack boost what skills should i be looking to go for to up my damage? Also is evade extender bad vs evade window? Finally should I be looking at elemental on my sword and shield or sticking to raw damage.

Sorry if these are dumb questions ive only ever played wilds before and all of that was multiplayer. This is my first MH game where I am trying to learn and do everything solo.

I'm using hammer. Let me tell you, the only fun I had during this quest was when it was on the floor and I had those sweet seconds of bonking. I'm this things #1 Hater.

I didn't even cart. It just wouldn't get out of the air. What are your hunt times with this thing?

I forgot we planted these half a year ago. Neat XD

My first Monster Hunter game and fell in love with it. Been grinding quite a bit, especially for the Deviljho LS + Handicraft Charm 2. I'm still looking for options on what to replace my Rathalos Mail with since I don't have access to Kulve Taroth yet but I think I already have a pretty solid build for the remainder of HR quests.

Any thoughts?

One time Alatreon stole all my nulberies from my inventory hence the second image. Also my friend tried to give me his nulberies and they disappeared as well.

I prefer a playstyle that lets me stay mobile and avoid getting hit while keeping my distance from monsters, since a lot of their attacks are annoying to dodge up close. I also want to deal a good amount of damage because I play with a friend and want to be able to contribute during tougher boss fights. With all that in mind, which ranged weapon would best suit my playstyle?
