      The gathering hub is literally scaled for multiple players regardless of whether you're playing with multiple people or by yourself.

      Yes you can solo it; but the game was not intended to be played solo.

        The gathering hub has monsters with more HP than their village version, when factoring in defense multipliers this usually results in a 1.4-1.6x HP scaling. The 4 player scaling used in MHW and Rise is literally 2.6. You can do the math yourself and see how much of a fricktard you are. The only game where the scaling is actually more aggressive is MH4U, in every other game the hub monsters are just harder version than the normal ones (they have higher attack, they have higher stagger multipliers, and they have higher hp).

            A lot of data has been extrapolated from the games during the years. For FU you literally have every HP, defense and attack values for every monster of every quest. 4U probably is still the only one where the data available is a bit iffy.

    multiplayer was expected in older monster hunter games, anything labeled as guild quests were multiplayer scaled, village quests were the single player experience.

    this matters, especially in g-rank releases as there was quite a bit of content essentially locked behind it, you "could" solo the content but the enemies would be too much of a damage sponge.

    starting in Monster Hunter World and by extension Rise they made all content (minus arena) scale down to 1 player if you choose.

    from it's inception Monster Hunter was designed around online multiplayer

        Hunting horn is too different.

      • 1 year ago
        Anonymous

        They removed all of the nuance from the weapon, all of the flow. In the earlier games excelling with the Hunting Horn was like performing a masterful dance requiring immaculate positioning as well as a deep intimacy with your move set and knowledge of all the songs at your disposal, allowing you to consistently dodge the enemy while dealing damage AND keeping your buffs active. Generations was the greatest iteration of the Hunting Horn with the introduction of "Double Notes" which you gained instead of normal notes when your attack actually connects with the monster. Performing a recital with all double notes would not only perform that buff but refresh the previous buff as well, providing even more incentive to be aggressive and not fall into the noob trap of performing your buffs away from the monster and then engaging.

        As the Hunting Horn stands now, it's just "Hammer but with buffs." No thought, no planning, no grace. You don't even have to use the frickin' recital anymore, you just get the buff whenever you load up the correct notes (which by the way never change because they removed the entire colored notes system and just gave each horn the same number of buffs). Mastery of the Hunting Horn used to be a point of pride, now it's just "who frickin' cares?" I was watching some VTubers play Rise a long time ago, and when the fricking terminally-ill bedridden bubble girl cripple of the group uttered the phrase "Wow I love the new Hunting Horn it's so easy to play now!" I piece of me shriveled up and died.

            The Hunting Horn in World was serviceable mechanics wise, but aesthetically it was brutalized by the nose dive in quality of armor/weapon designs. In the previous games basically every single horn had its own unique sound effects and lineup of buffs, World had what, 5 or 6? And yeah Rise improved on the designs again, but the cost was too great.

            This guy is a Hunting Horn autists and has videos showcasing every single Hunting Horn in each of the games. The length of each video should tell you everything you need to know

      Lance was strong but clunky as shit in FU, in 3U Lance got counters and guard dashes, it stayed pretty much the same in 4U and world in rise they included leaping thrust and charged sweep attacks.

      GU lance has weird ass moves depending on the style you use, some of those moves return in rise as switch skills.

      Lance is all about constant attacks to the monster without holding back, to do this you simply block the monster's bullshit and keep attacking while the monster flail autistically, guard and offensive guard are you go to armor skills and at least 1 level on guard up depending on what you are hunting, maybe 2 levels in constitution too for good measure, the rest can be all attack skills.

      guard dash > regular block > counter, always do the diagonal pokes, they are stronger, you are caped at 3 consecutive actions, to reset your pokes after doing 3 of them simply side step, guard dash or counter then let go, this will allow you to keep attacking, see what the monster is doing and decide the best way to reset your pokes in order to keep the offensive.

    If your concern is to play an old game for too long cause its more difficult than the new versions then no, it's not worth it.

    Yes, you can solo even the most difficult hunts, but it you are new in this it will take time, a lot of time.

    Do youself a favour and play world/iceborne, and if that its still too difficult for you then go for rise/sunbreak.

      >grind constantly
      have you played these games? at MOST you'll grind 2 armor sets for each rank but you can honestly get away with just 1 armor set for each rank. i guess the weapons if you use alot of different types or if you use sns/db and need to make multiple of them for elements. or are you talking about endgame shit like relics, anomalies, decos, etc? in which case thats just dumb, of course the endgame is gonna be grindy. this isnt even considering world/rise where grinding is essentially non existent.

      even with alot of grinding g rank in these games is still gonna be pretty difficult, at least for FU, 3U and 4U. not to mention the endgame shit like 140s, super events, EX deviants, etc doesnt give a shit what food skills you have or how meta your set is, youre gonna get your shit pushed in

            I'm going to assume that you can't upgrade it any further. I can't really help you much. I think that piece shots should have enough range to deal good damage even if it's standing and i hope that you are keeping your distance when he is crouching because pierce losses damage at close range. You definitely want to use a mega demon drugs, squeeze some mighty seeds every once in a while. Bring mega juices they are crucial to bows to keep up that deepz, if you really can't do it then switching to a HBG with pierce shot 2-3 should do it

            Thanks for the recommendations. I'll look into bowguns instead but should I just stack attack up on my armor or is it better to go for some other skills? I have next to no experience with bowguns.

              Attack up is a safe bet for pretty much every weapon all the way up to the end of high rank, once you get to G rank the damage bonus isn't that relevant anymore and you should turn your eyes to crit/sharpness skills, for bowguns there's a really broken skill that makes it so that you don't have to reload but it's a little hard to get

              If you just want to destroy shen gaoren any pierce shot bowgun with ceanataur armor will destroy him. When looking into bowguns, the basic thing you usually want to do is find a bowgun that excels at a particular shot type through a combination of raw and clip size, and get the related ammo up skill (Normal/Pierce/PelletS up and NOT plus) which is a fat 10% (30% in the case of pellet) damage boost.

              swimming should have been improved instead of replacing it with cancer mounting

                explain how you would improve swimming. even if you make movement and attacking less sluggish, the core problem of verticality making it insufferable to fight monsters who constantly ruin your positioning by going up and down. it's just more shit you have to take into consideration and it's not a fun challenge

                quicker vertical dashing with less recovery, give the weapons that needed more fleshed out water moveset improvements, get rid of the oxygen mechanic, alter bow/bowgun shots to be slower but do more damage to compensate

                even with quicker vertical dashing it's still annoying, it's a gimmick that feels arbitrary when the much much better ground combat exists. like think about it, why have swimming combat when ground combat exists which does not have any of the issues that swimming combat has? applying occam's razor to so many video games would make their gameplay instantly better

                I can think of a few reasons: 1. different approach to weak points 2. altered combat 3. taking vertical space into consideration 4. altered movement (no supermanning in particular changes how you approach dangerous moves)

                >quicker vertical dashing it's still annoying
                not as bad as the mounting shit that replaced it after

                if you want altered combat just use a different weapon lmao. there hasn't been a single vertical gameplay element that has made monster hunter's gameplay any better, mhfu and mhp3rd are the pinnacle of the game series.

                make it so the hunter just walks on the bottom of the ocean while keeping all speed and attacks, literally no difference from being on land. underwater monsters will sometimes swim above you similarly to how flying monsters will fly above you but the underwater monsters will be closer so you can still hit them. there i fixed it, now you can make cool unique underwater monsters without the moronic swimming. yes its a lazy fix but it works

                >just walks on the bottom of the ocean while keeping all speed and attacks
                that doesn't make sense since that's now how water works. at that point why not just walk on water or remove water combat altogether

                then just add new weapon styles like in mhgu but not batshit crazy. no need for swimming combat for that
                >which is why I wanted swimming improve
                again, it was much simpler to remove swimming than to improve it, especially when it has fundamental flaws in it which no amount of improving can fix.

                so just switch you movesets on the fly no matter where you are? again the simpler route is obvious and you're autistically defending something that virtually everyone agreed was dogshit

                you're saying that by removing half the roster of mhfu then it's better this way, but mh3u just has unnescessary filler monsters that mhp3rd doesn't have. by your logic mhp3rd is the better game but you're SO zealous about swimming combat that you have to go for the objectively worse game. touch grass, or should i say have a swim?

                you said it yourself, he stands still, and when you start attacking him he does the AoE shock around him so you back off, wait for him to do one of his easy as shit attacks to dodge, go in and repeat. Boring. Gigginox is a lot more dynamic

                obvious it's going to have more end game content, it's an expansion of 3 (and not a good one because it removes content). 3U has more end game content than p3rd and didn't remove aspects aside from amatsu

          The other games started to shift focus away from the simple and predictable monsters and hunters with heavy commitment attacks for something else. FU is still peak old MonHun, 3U and 4U are inbetween and from GU onwards it has become another thing entirely.

      no because the worst part about the best games in the series (3U/4U/GU) are the dogshit systems they were designed for (3U is a ported 3ds game for wiiu). The cruel irony is that when MH was finally on non-shit consoles, the games got worse (the switch is shit too actually but whatever)

      I never go into any monster fight with the mentality of "I need to use X weapon because it's better for Y monster" I just use what I feel like, only exception is if the monster resists the element/status of the weapon and I may be more inclined to use its elemental weakness but as far as the actual weapon type I don't care

    just started world as my first mh game and man the art style is kinda ugly. Especially most armors, and it apparently i can't transmog till i beat both the base game and the DLC. Doesn't help that both world and rise run on REengine with it's washed out colors.

    wish they'd make a modern mh game with 4U artstyle. Looks so pretty and comfy. Should probably play that instead, but idk about buying a 3ds or emulating and trying to endure performance/blurry cutscenes

      I've done it with DB, Bow, GS and LS. With GS and LS, you just hit them in the face and roll under them.

          No, I used full Fatalis. It's easy, you hit them in the face, you roll forward, you put your weapon away, and you don't ucking attack unless the other one is not about the rape your ass with a projectile or jump. No items either, I instead used farcasters to sharpen and heal, because you instantly die if you try that in the arena.

            I found it hard because sometimes they could do some bullshit attack combination that makes it very hard to avoid. Same for the zigzag jump at medium to far range.

              That's why it's the hardest quest in the game and one of the hardest in the franchise. However, you have 50 minutes and they generally die after 25 minutes of gruesome torture, so take your time, don't take any chances and you can do it. Drop the Iceborne mindset of "oh, I didn't hit the weakest spot with my strongest attack for 10 seconds, guess I'd better restart the quest so I don't time out", they always die when you outlast them. Always.
