i need to re practice Chargeblade as Ive been away for a while but may entirely be pointless since it seems my play style has been nerfed and the rest of the moveset buffed

Ooh I was not expecting that quest with Gemma in the plains. That was really good and now I can finally go (nearly) topless .

Since there is some monster hunter playing gents in this topic can someone spare me a mini crown nu udra hunt if you have one saved?

I've been trying to get this mini crown to pop off this nu udra I have spawning into the map for like 5 hours straight and it is just not happening this way.

I just checked, but neither of my non-tempered Nu Udra investigations were crowns. :[
Hambo's alt.
Thanks for checking. I did end up getting that mini crown anyway via joining random SOS games and hunting down nu udras for hunter ticket 3s (making some more layered weapons). Figured one of the 4 star tempered nu udras investigations hosted by someone that is like 250 hunter rank on up would be hosting one of their crown hunts eventually, and so that paid off.

Right now I am looking like I bathed in kool-aid wearing that layered armor that was added as part of that cosmetic pack.

Man I love and hate Lagiacrus.

its a fun fight but I feel I need to be up in his face and most of his moveset is designed to punish that

also my entire play style was nerfed and Im super unpractised with anything else.

AT Bellyflop is going to wreck me

I just fought Lagi. Agreed that the way they pronounce it is vile. An English speaking society would not settle on that pronunciation at all. Luh GUY uh cruss 4 lyfe.

The underwater section is cool though. Even with the button prompts showing up on screen exactly when you need them, it's very cinematic and dramatic. It felt smoother than I expected and I could definitely see it being reused or fleshed out for dlc fights.

I did struggle to get a feel for both new monsties on land though. They don't seem to like to stop attacking or let you get too close to them.

I did enjoy the underwater section but I had no f***ing idea what I was doing and got wrecked. I dropped one thing on Lagi but then wasnt sure how to damage him enough to stop him

I know there are bits of slinger ammo you can snag with your hook thingy. If you fire them from the right angle, you can deal several hits per shot. I guess the idea is to use them to make an opening, then get close enough to cling onto Lagi and give it a smack with your weapon or knife. Or just dodge and then grab/smack. I timed the pillar drop poorly and missed entirely lol.

Yeah I did that and created wounds and then did weapon attack about 10 times and it just kept going

I dont know. I hate Lagi I dont enjoy fighting him. The slide, the body slam just are too quick to react to. And both seem to take off 95% of my health from full and after both he always spams full body lightning to finish me (to be fair it is Tempered Lagiacrus 8* 5*)

hated fighting him in GU hate him here more. Never understood how hes so beloved

Ok. Maybe its my thunder resistance

I checked skill info and its 8

then I check in change equipment and its -2 very confused which is which

Probably a food buff. Iirc the equipment page where youre looking at armor doesnt account for food buffs.

Lagiacrus' movement makes landing Full Release Slash quite a bit tougher. Seregios too, though at least his legs are pretty meaty hit zone. I expect the Tempered version of both to be pretty tough.

I also did 8 star Tempered Gore for the first to time the other day. Very fun but intense fight.
Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi
<sneaky beeping>
I teared up when fighting Lagi. They did my boy right. 3U was my first MH so this hits good.

Regardless my poor hand/wrist can barely handle Wilds. Gets sore within a few hunts at most.

Anyone got a controller recomendation for Series S that is less straining to use then the default one?

I think capcom accidentally broke the seikrat customization with the latest patch. I noticed that when I went into the seikrat appearance and then went to the seikrat equipment section it would reset everything back to default colors. I excited the screen without saving because screw doing all that again.

But yeah the fashion game went up now that we can customize the weapons for both our hunters and our palicos. I feel so purty now.

My seikrat customization has been busted since launch... No matter what I do to change it, it's always been stuck with the default Green for most of it... Thats why I use the armor that completely covers it from the Sakuratide event so I don't have to look at it

Damn that sucks. Just a basic bird this entire time huh?

Finally fought laggy and yeah I liked it alot.

I'm a little upset I ate a cart in the water battle though, lol.

Mostly yea... I can change a bit of it but most of stays the default green so it looks terrible with most colors I change it too...

Tried to make it white and brown to match my dog (named my Seikrat after my dog and my Palico after my cat) but it looks gross with the rest staying green

You really have to fiddle with every setting to get that green to go away. Took me a long time to get a full black seikret with red feather-tips.

The MH Wilds board is full of people shitting on the Lagi underwater section. I've joined a few randos' hunts for it but I still think it's pretty cool. Sure, it's not as in depth as ground combat and your build doesn't matter as much, but I think they made it interesting and moving around is actually kinda fun. It's at least more interesting than dealing with Jin Dahaad's nuke the exact same way every hunt.

You don't need other Palico armor. Embrace Wudwud. Cherish Wudwud. Give all possessions to Wudwud.

Honestly though the fact that my cat still sounds like himself kinda ruins the illusion for me. I'll keep holding out hope that we get a second buddy in the dlc and it's a real Wudwud that talks funny and causes problems for the Avis unit.

Yeah that water section to me is pretty hype, and while I do admit that at first I got confused and actually carted once during my first time fighting him (although 2 random people did join my hunt out of nowhere and so lagi's attacks was going all over the place....I was doin' better when it was just me and my palico fighting, lol) I quickly got the gist of what to do during repeat fights. Boop him with the underwater boulders, use the slinger ammo in between attacks, latch on, knife a few times and hit with the weapon. Rinse, repeat and the whole thing doesnt take long at all.

And yeah I prefer doing that compared to bouldering behind jin dahaad's one-shot or watching out for zoh shia's once per fight oh shit move.

Yes. You don't even need a online connection if it came to that.

Yes, definitely. It is fun playing with friends too, but there's plenty to do solo and it isn't balanced around multiplayer.

One thing I miss about MH3 was having Cha-Cha and Kayamba... Just two goofy little companions... I'd love to have a Palico and Wudwud

I really hope they take this into consideration for the inevitable master rank expansion. I would love to have both a palico and wudwud following me around.

I see capcom is already doing things like letting us switch our handler (although I doubt I'll use eric much compared to alma), so I have hopes.

I have Alma dressed as Cammy... I'm definitely not switching to Eric lol

Also I already had a weird habit of making my guy look like a male stripper and that jacket from Gemma isn't helping lol

No horny, but the Gemma jacket rules. And apparently the shirtless shirt is coming soon too.

Also I wonder if Eric will get customization options, too. Or if we'll ever get to swap Gemma with Werner lol.

I saw the upcoming outfits for Gemma and Erik on the Monster Hunter leaks subreddit.

Let's just say, that's going to be one of the paid DLCs that sells really well.

Ok finally found the optional quest for Lagi and its night and day between him and 8 5 TLagi.

Much more enjoyable with Bow than Chargeblade. Still not sure how youd have any windows to attack without him AoE chip damage spamming you to death

still tied with Zinogre as my least favourite monsters I dont understand the hype for

I just tried an 8* Tempered Lagi too. And yeah, he's flippin spicy. I tried to SOS flare at the start but it mysteriously didn't work, so kitty and I went at it alone. Practically every lightning move put me at like 1 HP. I got it to dive and learned that Lagi can end that segment itself if you take too long (which is easy to do when it's extra aggressive). And somehow that punishment didn't hurt nearly as much as any of its other moves. I thought it would be a one shot nuke, but it barely even tickled. I did end up triple carting though.

One of the carts was bullshit though cuz my dude rolled forward into a big zappy when I was desperately trying to roll away from it. Lagi hacked me, I swear. >_>

Because I grinded to HR150 apparently I can now ONLY get 8 5 TLagi

And yep I swear the controls have some weird lag input that causes me a lot of issues

I'm well over HR 200. -_- Also getting more tempered tough monsters than I want. I was gonna skip it when I saw it was tempered, but figured I should at least check it for a crown size. It was a silver crown, but then I figured, eh, I'm already here...

I've not found Tempered Lagi yet at all. I saw a reddit post saying you can guarantee Lagi spawns in the Forest if you rest at the Cliffs set to Inclemency and Morning, but it did not work for me.

Much better luck with Seregios though. I managed to save an investigation with his Dissenter as a reward. Tempered Steve is pretty difficult though.
