A lot harder actually lol. I have solo'd her only once propably 6 months ago and now I wanted to learn this fight better. I haven't beaten her again yet but man this fight is so cool and intense!

That friggin tail swipe at the end gets me everytime. It seems theres no tell to it at all?? Or is there? Takes half of my healthbar, sheesh.. she ain't messing around.

EDIT: Ok. I got her in 25minutes and carted once. Overall was pretty bad run and can definetly improve that.

What isnt peak is having to gamble on RNG giving you the weapon you want.

At least i got two Golden Dragonsphire to make both layered armors.

Question How am I supposed to avoid damage in this game?

50 Upvotes

I just beat Nergigante and I honestly feel like I got lucky. I'm playing Sword and Shield so I need to get in close to do damage but it feels like every time I do I'm getting hit by something or he's hopping all over the place making it impossible to hit him. It's even more annoying when I'm fighting something like Bazelgeuse who drops bombs all over the place. I know it's probably a skill issue and I just need to practice but I genuinely don't understand what I'm supposed to be doing to avoid damage. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Question First time in MHW

Post image
15 Upvotes

Good evening, everyone.

I'm new to the Monster Hunter franchise. I started playing Monster Hunter Rise and absolutely loved it. I've already put in 90 hours and I haven't even finished the base game yet. I'm also really enjoying Sunbreak, it's an incredible expansion.

Unfortunately, I play on an Xbox One S, so I understand the limitations of my console. However, I'd heard so much about Monster Hunter World and how it's considered Capcom's masterpiece that I got really curious, so I bought it and started playing. Well... this bug happened when I launched the game. Thankfully, I restarted it and everything went back to normal, which was a huge relief.

I'd like to ask: nowadays, can I still have a great time playing this game on an Xbox One S? It looks like an amazing game, and I'm wondering if the experience is still enjoyable on this console.

Question Should I use SAED close to the boss?

5 Upvotes

Hello, mhw is my first monster hunter game, I'm using CB. I'm almost finished with iceborne main story.

However I was wondering, when a boss is stunned or down because it hit a wall, do I lose a lot of DMG if I use SAED very close to him, or should I create some distance before using SAED.

Question How do I get master investigations efficiently?

Hi, im currently trying to get master rank kushala parts but I have no investigations for it. Ive used up all my high rank kushala investigations and his optional fight keeps giving me high rank investigations as well.

Anyway I can move forward?

I decided to farm the Seething Bazelgeuse Set Alpha+ and to be honest, after fighting him for a while, he actually became fun to fight lol. My first impression was really not the greatest, but after some tries, I started to like fight him (and his gear is gorgeous, damn)

Question What makes frontier monsters different?

8 Upvotes

I'm fairly new to community with only 3 months of having joined, and I've only played world. Something I've noticed on almost every platform (youtube, Twitter, tiktok, and reddit) is that frontier monsters are spoken about as an isolated group. Like they have their own tier/league. Just the overall vibe of conversation feels different when I see people discussing frontier monsters.

I dont know much, but from what I've seen, frontier monsters seem to have crazier designs than the regular games. Is there a reason for that?

Idk, maybe I'm just imagining things, but if im not, can anyone please explain what exactly makes them unique?

Question Best Support Build?

5 Upvotes

I want to make a build entirely focused on supporting people, since I've been on the receiving end quite a bit and I'm a bit bored of traditional hunting. What would the best weapons be, and are there any jewel loadouts out there that could help?

Informative Recommended post Iceborne story progression

1 Upvotes

One of the shortcomings of this game is the lack of direction after the story, it's hard to find consolidated info and new players tend to face jarring difficulty spikes. So those are the main motivations for this. I acknowledge that pure spoiler-free-guides are impossible because you'd get spoiled while browsing through event quests anyways.

Specific upgrades were omitted for brevity. Criticisms, corrections, nitpicks are welcome - will fix if necessary.

Build I don't feel prepared for the final few monsters.

3 Upvotes

I've hit a bit of a roadblock with the Saafijiiva recon, nothing major, but I know the worst is yet to come with alatreon/fatalis and I feel as though this build may have fallen behind for the final few fights of the game. How should I improve it? Are there any "must haves" going forward?

Build Finished the based game, tempered beasts here I come

Post image
63 Upvotes

Took my sweet time (50h) and finally beat Xeno'jiiva (and watched the credits and cutscenes roll for about 15mins). My first attempt at MH World a few years ago got me so frustrated, I had just ended God Of War and Doom and switching from these to the Monster Hunter franchise had me brute force everything and I didn't take the time to appreciate the locales, the monsters, learn their patterns, and spam SAEDs to their faces correctly. With all due respect of course. I just unlocked HR 15 so I'm just starting the real game : tempered monsters. I had a blast fighting Diablos (and Black Diablos, oh boi Black Diablos taught me stuff), Nergigante, Teostra, and actually Kushala wasn't so dreadfull. Val Hazaak is just meh and Xeno'jiiva is a big baby being bullied, that doesn't count. I'll farm armor spheres and decos to hit level 3s asap for the armor skills and then, blast even more SAEDs, try guard points, fail miserably, and get sent flying. This game taught me to take my time and I'm glad it did. Iceborne is right around the corner but I'm not done yet with World !

I havent really gotten much play time with EVERY mantle (there's a few I havent unlocked either😭)

But for me I'd say its the one here in the picture, immunity mantle, and temporal mantle, those guys are my goats, makes me cry just thinking about all the hunts they've gotten me through🥹✌️

Discussion Anyone else find Nargacuga and Glavenus really easy?

0 Upvotes

The fight with Barioth traumatized me… I only managed to hunt him on my second and third tries after watching YouTube guides, but it still messed with my head.

When I saw the next fights were Nargacuga and Glavenus, I got overwhelmed and was seriously thinking about quitting the game. I decided to relax first by fighting the MR 3★ Rathalos… and that just traumatized me even more. I kept getting destroyed.

So I thought “fuck it, why not try Nargacuga and Glavenus before I quit?” I didn’t watch any guides, just quickly checked their weaknesses.

…And it was kinda underwhelming. Nargacuga gave me a decent fight, but I expected him to be jumping around and dashing everywhere. Most of the time he felt pretty slow and kept getting stuck on his own tail.

Is it just me, or did Barioth and Rathalos actually make me way better at the game?

Discussion hardest Monster Hunter game

0 Upvotes

I felt like learning Charge Blade, and since I already had both World and Rise installed, I decided to practice in both games. I still haven't finished Sunbreak (I'm currently at MR3), and I thought learning a new weapon might make me enjoy it more and finally finish it. I liked World a lot more than Rise.

For some context, Monster Hunter World was my first MH game. I have around 170 hours in it, and I've only ever used the Great Sword. It's my favorite weapon, and it's the one I've played in every Monster Hunter game.

The weird thing is that World feels so much harder than every other MH game I've played. In Rise, I feel like I can actually play the weapon properly. I can land Guard Points consistently, pull off some pretty stylish plays, and just play the game normally. But when I switch to World, even trying to do the basic things the same way just doesn't work.

I do admit I was carried a bit when I first played World. I had a great experience because I made a lot of friends, and they helped me through many hunts. But after finishing the game, I spent a ton of time farming the Guiding Lands by myself, so it's not like I never learned to play solo.

I honestly feel like I never truly learned how to play World. The only monster I never beat was Fatalis, but I still feel like I'm missing something about how the game is meant to be played.

I've looked for Charge Blade guides, but almost all of them only explain the weapon's mechanics, combos, and Guard Points. What I'm looking for is a guide that teaches the decision-making during an actual hunt—when to attack, when to stay defensive, how to create openings, and how to deal with fast monsters like Rajang or Barioth. I haven't been able to find anything like that.

I also played the older games. I finished the village in MH4U and MHGU, and honestly I found both of them easier than World. I know G-Rank gets much harder, but I'm talking about the games as a whole.

Do you guys think World is the hardest game in the series? I know a lot of people say the older games are harder, but I personally didn't find them harder—they just don't have the same quality-of-life features as World.

If anyone has advice on what I might be doing wrong or knows any good guides for dealing with fast monsters, I'd really appreciate it.

Also, English isn't my native language. I translated this post with ChatGPT, so sorry if anything sounds a bit weird or doesn't make much sense.
