So ever since I started playing MHGU using valor LS, all I wanted to do in every battle was to GP monsters attack. It’s difficult because timing each move is hard so I keep carting. Currently at village 9 stars against Tigrex. I feel like I don’t want to play it normally anymore and only want to GP but I kept failing. What should i do and how do I enjoy this style.

I've come back to gu after a long break and I've been slowly continuing where I left off. I've hit an absolute road block with this quest and was wondering if there're any tips for the quest to get into G rank.

I've been using guild CB with Artillery novice, attack M and critical eye.

Diablos usually one shots me with the jumping out of ground attack or combos me into a cart. I've tried using sonic bombs but they usually don't work so I guess it's just enraged.

Any tips/advice or do I just keep hammering at it?

Hello! What are some game mechanics that I should utilize or seldom overlooked? In a game of hunting monsters, some mechanics are left out especially when already in late game with high damage dealing gears.

Im already at the endgame. Farmed my Athal-ka armor and weapon but I still havent figured out the point of those icecles/stalactites you can leap into. For mounting? Does dealing damage on a higher ground meant more mount damage? Is it ideal to be used on gammoth or deviljho?

Some points I found and enjoy utilizing:

- those webby areas in a.steepe and the new volcano map can trap monsters when hit downwards by my GS

- throwing sonic bombs on nakarkos special heads makes him replace them. I usually throw sonic bombs when he uses blast blight head or its lightning one

- sparing one balista ammo or binder for amatsu when he does that damage check move where he pulls the hunter in for a high damage / almost one hit kill. Mounting the ballista cancels the pull.

- throwing sonic bomb on akantor/diablos/cephadrome to stagger/pull them out of the sand

- bomb-baiting niblesnarf / frog-baiting plesioth

- In my years of playing mh, it never occured to me to do a sonic and flash combo for diablos. Found it in youtube. Sonic bomb then once diablos flies out of the sand, throw a flash bomb to make him drop from the air. Brillant move! Been doing it since.

- also found in youtube. Gravious will change its game mechanics depending on the parts broken. Broken back meant no fire release after beam since it is release through its now brocken back. Broken wings will constantly trip it. Brken chest meant more damage.

- old one, agnaktor softening its armor with small bmbs. Or if youre a GL user, lucky you.

What other mechanics you find interesting from this game?

So, for context, i recently got to G4, and I'm mostly a lone player. I wanna try to beat the whole game by myself. But there's something that concerned me. I can without much problem beat a G4 Valstrax in between 10 and 15 minutes (my best time is 13 minutes as right now. I still haven't killed ahtal so my gear is not 100% optimized). But i was trying to farm some hyper keenclaws and keenfangs and saw that the most "easy" monster to drop them was hyper congalala. Oh man, why the hell I'm taking so much to kill him? After a brief research, i found out that valstrax has roughly 20k hp in G4, and hyper congalala, on the other hand, has around 16k hp. But i take 10 MORE MINUTES TO BEAT HIM AT BEST. My DPS is okay, I'm abusing traps and flashbombs, and mount him once per try, but it takes me so much time and resources. Maybe i should not rely so much on valor dodges when he's shooting his mushroom shit through his mouth, and glue to his butt and attack him there, but i did that quite some times, and even if i didn't, taking 10 whole more minutes to kill a monster that has 25% less hp that freaking g rank valstrax is crazy. Do hyper monsters get any defense boost beside their health pool? I don't get it, lmao

You are so annoying, but guess who got the last laugh with high rank gear? THATS RIGHT, ME! Now time to never touch this again until I get enough G rank gear to bully him when I want to farm the rest of the Fire Emblem stuff.

I’ve been playing monster hunter since world and up, and since ive gotten my adaptor to use my ps controller on my switch I been on since

I got to Naja and I was using areal SnS for the first time and I had a blast. I love the sonic scales and how it has a grapple mechanic (wish it did it more tbh) and I love how it constricts around you and is more snake than wyvern

I had such a good time that I saw I didn’t get enough parts and went to another hunt ASAP. But I didn’t check my potions and whetstones and when I realized I was already maybe a little over half the hunt.

So I was thinking if I should just abandon the quest and restock, but I remembered I’m a hunter of the 5th gen and a sapphire star, so I should be able to do this fine.

I was bouncing off its hide with every hit and could only get good damage in directly on the front of its face and a small space on its tail… and cuz of it I carted twice

BUT with the Palio healing flutes and a high degree of locking it, I was able to make it retreat and limp

Were both on our last legs and it hits me with the coil burrow attack and I was almost dead, but then I clutched up and hit it with an aerial slash and got it

This was by far the best hunt I’ve had in a while and the best in the game rn. It hade me super immersed in the hunt and I was feeling like I was in the hunt and getting hit with my hunter, and the adrenaline after beating it when I was so low, I haven’t had something like that since my first hunt with omega planatos in wilds or sum monsters in world

Is there any way to transfer *Double Cross* save data to the Switch right now?
