I didn't find Diablos that much of a pain once I got his moveset down, though he still hits like a truck for no good reason. Rathalos is just a pain, though, and is an annoying chase and just plain unfun solo.
I got an investigation for Black Diablos but I haven't dared touch it yet
I sort of theorize that it's some weird distance thing and Diabolos tracking where you were last moments before appearing under you. He's much easier to dodge when he digs from far away because you can already get up to sprinting speed and superman dive. Up close though you're probably sheathing your weapon and don't have the time to pick up speed. So the moment he's underground and near you the moment you start sprinting it's already too late, doubly so if you're close it seems. I personally would have never thought his tail alone could one shot me considering all my time on ps4 in high rank but I guess it's my fault for rushing through without building up my armor.
anyone want to help with pink rathian? noone ever joins my sos for it
get the shield mod.
I have, but what I said was in response to "everyone should holster often and run around", though I probably should have quoted.
yo, is there a place that lists some of the best endgame weapons? i'm never sure what to aim for
Is there any weapon that is not a clunky unresponsive mess that locks me into a 20s long animation? Having a really hard time getting enjoyment from this game because of godawful combat.
have you tried not spamming attacks
I mean if you don't like it, you don't like it. Don't force yourself to. I like MH's combat because it makes me think before I hit attack and mashing the buttons usually doesn't work. Same reason I like Dark Souls combat. That being said, I thought there's a lot of light weapons in the game. Those are usually faster at the cost of damage.
I know I'm late in saying this but what's with some of these bullshit one-hit kill moves from these monsters. I don't remember the 3DS version being that annoying.
Yeah there's quite a selection of light weapons. Dual Blades might be worth a go if you're looking for something really fast, and second would be Long Swords, and then third Sword & Shield.
para switch axe
That's typically the case when the monster goes completely bonkers (red icon on the minimap). Nergigante for example I found I can survive his big dive attack as a heavy bowgunner but when he's enraged I put my bowgun away when his spikes are black and wait for him to do that attack because it will outright oneshot you unless you have insane amounts of armor or a vitality mantle.
Is this even an option? Every time I try to aim at the head the monster just spins around like crazy or sidestep away.
That's because "spamming attacks" isn't an option. Pretty much for every boss you have to read out what move they're going to do and punish it accordingly with one of your own. Some are easier than others.
Dual Swords and SnS is made quick attacks without getting stuck in place too often. Most of this game is learning monster behaviors and initiating a combat dance with them. It's easier to learn and adapt on lighter weapons.
I've been getting by on longswords for most of the game now and I feel kinda bad for using them as I know a lot of people bitch about them tripping people up in online, yet I mostly play solo so it shouldnt really apply to me God I wish I could shake that feeling because the switchaxe is fun but I love the longsword's better mobility/more escapable attacks in comparison
does minds eye from the rathols set affect melee weapon?
evade extender is key to using a switch axe.
you can cancel animations by dodging with a majority of the weapons now. imagine playing a mh game without any of that and you'd have the original mh on ps2 as well as freedom 1 and 2.

what's wrong with longswords tho
It's not a hammer
They should add a player choice where they tell the handler to fuck off with her everything forever.
Are there any good armor sets for hunting horn out there? Just started High Rank and I love the vespoid/girros horn
finally made it to xeno's quest, i hope they come out with a patch soon to fix the save killing so i can attempt it
Wasn't the save killing thing like, one person's experience and he literally made up some bullshit stat?
From my personal experience the save issue is pretty rare, but if you are worried you can always backup your save before attempting it
Anything that adds horn maestro or slugger.
