• Monster Hunter: Iceborne is like the Bloodborne of Iceborne

I was fighting diablos a few times for an item drop and the devil pickle just rolled up and suplexed that fucker it was hype. I beat xenojiva last night for the first time and I'm really pumped for iceborne to come out. I'm gonna keep grinding to get the gear and setups I need to be more efficient and I feel I've got time to make some real progress before it comes out. Do optional missions give you more EXP for completing them for the first time or should I just do the ones I need for the mats and setups I'm going for?
Is there a sax-a-boom replacement for HH mod yet? https://youtu.be/mRSpaLObDL4
Decided to restart MHW from scratch. few months ago I stupidly used a trainer to catch up with friends and kinda ruined the real fun. I'm not too bad but I sure as hell shouldn't be HR100+ SO, back to Square one and imma learn the doot doot horn for when Iceborne is released. (Plus it's been on my bucketlist for ages)
i messed it up for myself too, i find it very difficult to keep moving forward "slowly" when my friend is so far ahead of me. that was back when i was still in uni and had a lot less time. i might follow your example.
I'm glad every weapon is getting something new but man some weapons are benefitting WAY more than others.
I wonder how reload speed will affect the LBG dodge reload thing
The LBG reload thing is a mod for it so it seems kind of redundant to have both.
I think they mentioned that they'll add a Dodge Reload mod, where it would make it so you reload more then the default one bullet. So I'm guessing you'll be able to reload four of em per dodge (Default + 3 mods) if I understood it right. Probably misheard it during the "direct".
LBG https://twitter.com/monsterhunter/status/1135456084066484224 HBG https://twitter.com/monsterhunter/status/1135457340289900544 Interesting to note: "All Master Rank BGs will have more slots to customize" That sounds like it will be fun.
So the scope makes you deal more damage if you're in critical range, neat. Also yeah I just remembered the dodge reload mod for LBG only reload a certain amount of your mag, not the entire thing. Great for slow reload ammos I suppose.
I think it could be stuff like the Wasps but it lasts longer and its basically make you and your team save up potions. I imagine it works like the Boosters but the effect doesn't stick to you for very long altho grants a much more powerful effect standing in it. Maybe even have bubbles with effects boosters don't have, like Earplugs, Wind Res or Tremor Res. Wind Res would act like a safety net if you get blown off for example. It sounds silly but this is MonHun after all. Stack Affinity bubble with Affinity Booster and watch the sparks fly!
There was a bubble blight status effect in Generations that improved your evasion, it could be that. It was also dealt by one monster in specific so Im hoping they were teasing something more with that video.
The comparison to Greatsword damage has me excited for the HBG scope.
Bubbleblight has two stages, the "Bubble" status effect, and "Bubbleblight". On "Bubble" it gives you Evasion +1 and Constitution +1, removed if you get hit. Getting hit again with a bubble turns you to "Bubbleblight", which negates the effect and reduces your friction and makes you unable to attack until you shake it off or get hit. The armor skill Bubbly Dance will give you "Bubble" on evading twice, and make you immune to Bubbleblight. Since Bubble is technically a status ailment instead of a buff, Crisis will activate on it too.

Man, the people who had trouble with flippin Barroth are going to be throwing their controllers at their TVs in rage trying to fight Tigrex. It's going to be GLORIOUS!
Looks like Glavenus at the end?
People have trouble with Barroth!? Fucking bottom bitch bucket head?!? I'd understand Bagel or HellDoggo since one has huge burst damage and the other is fast along with applying Bleed but fucking mud boi?

I remember finding Barroth challenging at first, I actually had my first cart there. I had become complacent with just whacking monsters on the head until they fall over. It's the first monster you'll face in the story that has some poor hitzone values, causing bounces. It's where the game attempts to teach you to adapt your tactics to suit the monster.
Ye I guess viewing it that way, the bounce can fuck up people with long weapons or used to wack the head. TBF, I do vaguely remember being tough to fight him when mobility was reduced or escape options were nerfed (the mud area and the "corridor" area). Altho, Diablos was a fucking nightmare the first time, so was Nergigante. Kirin is still stupidly annoying to fight and that will not change.

Can't wait for everyone to die to Nargacuga's tail spikes. It's like MH3U all over again :V
Clifford don't fuck around. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3UECPyvl0mg
I'm still hoping for Barioth. They have the skeleton for it and it would just make so much sense given Iceborne's setting.
oh boy my favorite Gen monster to fight is coming back, hope they give him some nice speed buffs because even without styles, I think World's systems are still gonna wreck him with these new buffs

my god arch tempered nergigante was tough. probably my favourite fight in the entire game and a great way to send it off until iceborne. i was lucky enough to be blessed with 3 tickets so i made the torso, gloves, and pants. so many juicy gem slots.
