Tempered Elder Dragons Guide - ua-cam.com/video/nqXc2mWR1LY/v-deo.html Go watch my Deviljho Horn Guide - goo.gl/j5j1RF Two helpful comments have been made: 1. Food effects are capable of increasing your loot odds 2. There's a Guild set that gives you increased loot too. Elder Melder Decoration Re-roll Glitch: ua-cam.com/video/bauk_ksp6Nc/v-deo.html I could've mentioned the vouchers but Im not 100% sure if they actually increase your reward chances
Also the commission armor gives a extra carve from all monsters. This is great for elder dragon gem hunting since you can get gems from tail carves and body carves.
I carved a gem from many monsters is not that rare,some even at the first try (for rathalos,rathian,deviljho,Nergigante,Kushala,Legiana the first time i killed them) and i basically got for now every monster gem ,the only exceptions are Anjanath, Behemoth,Teostra,Lunastra,Val hazek, i know that i could be luck but on all the others 4 monster hunter games i played before this i was the most unluck solo player of the world so i think this is only fair now,and i still can't find wyvern gems even with the legiana skills if not every 10 or 15 high grade monsters no matter what i do,at this point i should try to use the Kirin skill together with the Legiana
Currently hr 120 and I can’t say I’ve ever kicked someone out of a game, even for carting multiple times. If it’s that important to you, you can always do the investigation alone. Or better yet, you can filter your matchmaking so that you can join (or create) a room with people of similar rank, not that rank matters all that much.
Sean S I also never boot people Unless its the quest called "Summons from below" It has a tempered elder dragon and alows someone with an hr 15 In most quests the hr that is needed has to be HR 50 So i boot anyone that hasnt beaten Xeno just for safe measure But other than that im pretty sure most people would be more cautious of dodging after fainting once because its jot like they also want to loose
@Dexus Ex you don't know man, i got 2 nerg gems in a row and have 7 xenojiiva gems im not even lying.... But i still don't know why Im struggling to get a normal monster gem
Yeah that booting thing has been around for lomg time now. Usually people would just look at your armor set and then boot you if they think its not up to there standards. There were times I was rocking end game gear but because they said my defense isnt high enough I still got booted. My good ol' MH4U days.
Ya he posted a video with the exact drop rates. Not that there is misinformation here, but it would be easier to just say do investigations that have silver and gold rewards. Everything else is such a tiny drop rate that it isn't even really comparable to the investigation rewards.
If he’s the one asking for help, he has the right to boot someone under hr 15. They’re usually not competent enough to know monster patterns close to perfectly and how to efficiently kill it
Great guide, I use the same method and it has made getting gems very easy. One thing though with these sets gems drop from normal bonus rewards pretty often so I have found multi monster quests a great way of farming.
I don't boot level 14 players, I just don't let them in. I have to approve all my join requests and depending on the hunt I vary who I'll let in. I'm not elitist, I'm actually quite mediocre. I just value my time and don't want low level players using all the allotted faints or brain dead DB players face mashing away my well timed sleeps. Really what this drives me to do is run all my 3 faint or lower quests solo since randoms have the potential to be so damned bad. I also use Lucky Cat (6 beers from the bottom row) with a meal voucher which gives a chance of increased quest rewards. If your'e really grinding for fast gems you can use the RNG Cannon build Phemto posted for 3-5 minute kills of even tempered elders (when I don't eff it up and get a little RNG on my side). Obviously fewer gem chances when you're farming tempereds, as you mentioned in the video.
You can kick players out of the session? I never knew that how do you do it? I hate getting players who always do things like try to attack teo during the supernova thing. Don't get me wrong, I get that some people are just starting out (this is my first mh game too) but It's just annoying to lose the attempts of my elder investigations so quickly without any rewards and wasting time lol
Incompetent people or newer players can make it tougher than solo with the believed 2.6x health buff for 2+ hunters....I'm at nerg now havent really had any issue soloing
Sometimes I die a lot its frustrating, but sometimes I carry the whole team, the other day I bringed Lunastra 4 times down and still the others guys died and the quest failed. Everyone has its good and bad moments I saw people hr 14 better than some hr 60.
if you take on quest to fight 2 monsters in 1 go there hp is halfed, mixing heavy monsters with light ones can make the farm much faster, or give you 2x the loot for not much extra work
You can get 1 guaranteed gold print every week if you do all the limited bounties. You get it when complete all limited bounties. It’s how I have gotten gems for weapons. I have only craved 1 gem from a monster but I usually get gems from the rewards screen
I just want to say that I've carved a bunch of gems, I've even had cases where I carved multiple gems from a single monster (no Legiana or Kirin armor). It's pure RNG. Also, you're forgetting that Great Hunting Investigations lower the amount of HP for each monster... so killing 2-3 monsters happens *MUCH* faster than if you do them one at a time. The best chances for getting gems is to solo the Great Hunting Investigations that have 4 rewards (two silver two gold) and capture them all.
Started playing recently(June, last year) and I believe I've used up all my RNG luck yesterday. Did the raging brachy hunt and used the extra rewards ticket and went in with the plunderblade and part breaker. Carved a immortal reactor, got 2 more immortal reactors and got 2 brachydios palliums as rewards on my first run through. Prior to that, 200+ runs trying to get the nargacuga mantle to make deepest night and nothing till the I think 211th-216th try. Been trying for a zinogre sky emerald ever since I unlocked him, and still to this day nothing. I got 3 celestial wyverian prints, but I'm hoarding those.
I really truly feel if you are a good enough player soloing is much faster. Take for example the Cherry blossom, snow blossom event quest to hunt a tempered Pink Rathian and Tempered Legiana, i think on average when i was farming it my time was, as i said on average, about 5:30 min, with some of my best times being around the 4 min mark and in all my times playing with a group or seeing "quick" runs it is almost always over 6 mins. Normal Investigations prolly take me around 3 mins solo. Not to mention it is usually harder not easier to cut off monster parts and/or break parts as the bosses health/requirements for breaking/severing increase as well. So if you are looking to maximize your chances for gems, which usually require breaking/severing certain parts you are far better off running solo. As i said with the 1 caveat being that you are a skilled enough player. I know myself well enough to know that i can run solo and kill and break/sever parts much quicker/easier than i can with a group. Honestly in most case all a group will do is lower your Zenny reward and if it is a low amount of carts allowed investigation they may also cause you to outright fail the mission.
Yes I did notice this combination. Right now I am using the Guild Cross set with gives a High Reward chance since I mostly fight elder dragons now. You can get that set by getting the medals through the arena. Just got the 50 elder dragon killer title. Tempered elder dragons hurt... Meh on your kicking level 14.True that if you are level 14 then you probably do not even have the good stuff yet. Level 14 I do not think have augments unlocked, and probably do not even have any tier 8 equipment. Isn't level 14 right at the end of post game? Sounds like me, really pissed off at the people dying on tempered investigations or even forbid Teostra. Once people are higher rank the investigations can go FAST. Normal high rank is usually only a couple minutes. But on the flip side you could get people like me that are branching out to different weapons and I can assure you that it would be hard to be good at some of these weapons the first time you try them. And many people have PLAYED other monster hunters and are good at the game. So probably better just to judge on a case by case basis if you can.
There is a set that grants you great luck by equipping 4 pieces for that specific set which is the guild cross and getting the parts is by fighting arena quests
TheGameconomist Np I can feel the hunters where you need that gem but it isnt giving you it but when yoi dont need it actually gives you its mh or my luck
Ghilly The Explorer Thats the classic MH Desire Sensor. Spend 10 days farming a 1 nerg gem. The hunt i get the gem... i carve 2 and get 4 from drops. Mmmmm. Fuck you too game.
I’m confused on how the Legiana and Kirin sets work. I’ve looked everywhere for an answer to the following question. Do you need to wear it the whole mission, going into the mission, or can you change into it just before capturing/ending the quest? If you know, I’d really appreciate some feedback. Thanks
Sam Rhodes You have to start the quest, it can be you posting or a mate posting and you leave for quest when he leaves for it. Joining a seesion already in progress, even within 10min(quest rewards enabled) will not proc the armor ability.
Its really good for farming a lot of the threat level 1 and threat level 2 gems, but I woulds say for the elder dragons, its better to run counter builds bc they are tough enough that counter builds will help you finish the fight sooner.
Ugh its speed runners and tryhards like you that got no business playing a game like monster hunter. There's more to this game than just grinding and completing missions fast the game is meant to be EXPERIENCED not just played. Why would you even boot anyone at all? Rank dosen't mean Jack shit other than the mission difficulty you can access. You're the type of player I like to call a "Hotshot Hunter". You don't care about the fun or the team work you just wanna speed through it all and act like you know what you're doing cuz you know how to swing a charge blade. Also in my experience Hotshot hunters like you are always the first to die.
Dark-Slayer Now, while you have *some* points, others are not so good. 1st: Some people actually do enjoy doing things fast. Speed runners are not in the wrong at all. It takes insane patience and redoing over to get to the point of memprizing a monster's patterns. Speed runs are quite impressive if done right. Look at Team Darkside, Cantaperme, Akantorex, etc. 2nd: There comes a point when many people just want to get something done. After fighting 20+ of the same monster and not getting your desired item, they will often look for ways to improve their chances. It's fine for a while, bit eventually it gets infuriating. 3rd: No, rank is not a huge factor for people's actual skill, but often times it can a hindrance. I personally don't boot based on rank, but I will of your equipment isn't up to par with the target quests. Even if the player is descent, it's the fact that they are taking unnecessary risks that could easily screw over the team as a whole (I normally let people do one quest, see how they perform, and then decide if they stay or go). Some people wear lesser armor just to make a challenge, but that should be done offline unless otherwise stated. All in all though, it's everyone's preference, and if you don't like them, block them and you won't need to deal with them.
Well well... why would he boot someone? He said that. Same why I would do it. Its annoying when some people come join your Quest and after they joined it takes 5min and then its failed. Wasted time and its frustrating. And the best Multiplayer Experience is when 4 Solo Hunters come together. Rank means a lot. What is the difference between someone Hr100+ and someone HR29+ or whatever you are after killing Xeno? Equipment and overall knowledge. And that "Hotshot Hunter" thing really made my day. Thanks for the laugh. Not everybody wants to repeat a Quest several times a day when you dont have several hours time and want to make progress. Btw before you start to cpmplain about anything. I´ve played almost every MH Game and for quite long. Play it solo, learn patterns and stuff before you go in an HR Investigation with tempered monsters and die 3 times in 5mins. No Copyright for grammar mistakes. Keep all you find for yourself idc.
Wen Juckts the fact that you think Hunter rank means anything beyond the difficulty of missions you can access or how far you have made it in story or the missions you have already completed. Says you're no different from this guy. Your rank means jack shit and don't protein to anything but your current progress. Let me guess you think rank means something in games like Warframe, CoD or any other game. I know Your type too. The kind that brags about his rank and looks like a jackass when it's the rank 1 Hunter is the last one standing.
Dart-Tram16 They are not in the wrong but it's speed runners that screw over half the people they join in games like these. I've had so many speed runners join my Damn game when I'm either in the middle carving rare materials or gathering or trying to break off specific parts and all they want to do is kill the monster and get out. I've had my captures ruined by them too. So if they are gonna bother with this game they need to stay in their own private servers or stay offline.
Dark-Slayer dude... look at mh speed runs and link me one with more then 1 person. Youll find none. Higher Rank = Better Euipment + more experience and therefore faster hunts. If you need 20mins for a Great Jagras then note to yourself. Thats really slow and not everybody wants to play that long for a single hunt. And thats all about rank that matters in MH for me. Also most of the time I play alone or help others who need help. Playing alone has much more benefits
Ive been farming odogaron gems for a week now. I need 2 to complete the set and glaive. It's great fun because odogaron is my favourite monster, but im getting annoyed. I really hope this works.
animatronic gnu Why are you farming for the armor set? It's honestly not that good in later game. I made the whole thing and it's useful but I don't think the gem is worth it especially that's it's overshadowed by other armor
animatronic gnu It does look pretty cool, but what other useful skills are other than speed sharpening and the 4-piece protective polish along with some critical eye? Speed sharpening is easy enough to get by decorations, so is protective polish but I unfortunately haven't gotten one yet. Critical eye is largely outclassed by weakness exploit. The set does look cool, but make sure you won't regret wasting a gem and time farming for it like I do. Sorry if I sound like a dick here, I really don't mean to but I already wasted time and effort trying to get something that was not very good soon after I got it in the face of elder armor
TheFlamingTornado1 Actually, some builds (including my current one) pretty much require protective polish, or at least 2 points in handicraft. 4x Odo set gives a good variety. Then take the eyepatch and its pretty damn good. Until i can get the Sharp Decoration (yay... rng.... kms) im gonna be using this set...
Good video bro. You said in the beginning of the video that the First Wyverian Print is really rare. Just checking, are you aware you get one of those guaranteed for doing the weekly bounties?
I have no problem getting plates and gems from carving, i sometimes carve 2 at once. The materials that give me a hard time are things like horns and fangs or other things that only reward from breaking parts. Even if i break both horns or talons or wings im lucky to get 1 in the rewards
Delzanzius i farmed 10 Majestic Horns in a day doing the rrrrumble in the west quest..break both diablos horns and black diablos horns and trust me you will get them
Thanks for the vid. Im seeing ppl say that the Kirin set bonus and the Legiana set bonus DO NOT improve ur chances of getting a gem, but raises the chances of getting the other high level drops(plates,fang+,ect). Are they wrong?
That's a great question but no one would actually know the answer to that question without loads of data, or simply an answer from the devs. In my experience the only times I get more than one gem are when Im wearing the set
Does the Legiana/Kirin Favor affect decoration drops and warrior/hero stone drops? I find it hard to get warrior/hero streamstones so would the legiana favor help get warrior/hero stones?
Guild Cross Set gives you an extra carve Meaning if you get a tail cut and kill the monster you get 3 + 1 carves from the body and 1 + 1 carve from the tail You can only get gems from breaking monster parts, the carves or one gem for capturing. So you get 2 shots plus the existing 4+ for a gem by killing an average wyvern with 3 carves and cuttable tail with the GC set bonus while capturing only gives you one extra shot. No offense against Gajin Hunter but capturing is not always better, espec if it comes to gems
So, let's say I beat up a monster with some other armor set and when it goes to sleep, I go to camp, change my armor to this set you showed in the video, and then capture it, will it increase my rewards?
I allways new about the bonus but I never thought it might be usefull. If this increases the gem drop rate it will save me a lot of time. I need a shit ton of different gems since I'm crafting All the weapons in the game and too many of them need a wyvern gem. I really hope this helps...
I was wondering if you cold make a guide regarding the armorpieces that you use when using a Hunting Horn, I'd really like to use some sort of support build with Hunting Horns but I'm not familiar with any good skills that should be prioritised
Would these loadout skills still trigger if i will only wear it after killing the main monster? I mean I still want to my main tank set and I will switch to kirin/legiana set before the 60 sec post-quest is done
Damn, I guess everyone's experience is different. I've gotten Wyvern Gems on carves and as a silver prizes lots of times. I received it as a silver prize more than as a gold prize which doesn't make sense to me, but I guess it is just RNG.
I have played the whole game solo and wanted roti adj anybody this question. The first time you beat all the Elder dragons do they do a gem? Or wad i having the luckiest day of my life? I don't know what it is but i have fought Odogaron like 30 times with no gem yet i have fought Nergigante 7 times for 6 gems.
I've fought Xeno about 6 times so far and the first time I got 3 Xeno gems and I got two more on the third and fourth run. Either I'm really lucky or they aren't that rare
the only problem that i have i want only 1 gem to upgrade the frost amulet to make the legiana set complete i fight legiana more then 11 time and i cannot cut his tale to get the gem i use arrows and kinsect glaive do you think i must use a sword to get the gem?
I’ve got the Vaal Hazak,teostra and xeno Gemma on my first try...but I don’t need them and I had a 170%(I calculated it with an official site that tells you the chance that you have of getting a certain item)chance of getting the pickle gem which you need for every deviljho weapon and I still have 0

Elder Melder Decoration Re-roll Glitch: ua-cam.com/video/bauk_ksp6Nc/v-deo.html
I could've mentioned the vouchers but Im not 100% sure if they actually increase your reward chances
Great vid. Custom meals including the X6 Ales in each of the two rows have huge loot and zenny benefits!
Legiana 2 armor piece n kirin full armor bonus skill (which require capture only)
Also the commission armor gives a extra carve from all monsters. This is great for elder dragon gem hunting since you can get gems from tail carves and body carves.
I carved a gem from many monsters is not that rare,some even at the first try (for rathalos,rathian,deviljho,Nergigante,Kushala,Legiana the first time i killed them) and i basically got for now every monster gem ,the only exceptions are Anjanath, Behemoth,Teostra,Lunastra,Val hazek, i know that i could be luck but on all the others 4 monster hunter games i played before this i was the most unluck solo player of the world so i think this is only fair now,and i still can't find wyvern gems even with the legiana skills if not every 10 or 15 high grade monsters no matter what i do,at this point i should try to use the Kirin skill together with the Legiana
Currently hr 120 and I can’t say I’ve ever kicked someone out of a game, even for carting multiple times. If it’s that important to you, you can always do the investigation alone. Or better yet, you can filter your matchmaking so that you can join (or create) a room with people of similar rank, not that rank matters all that much.
Sean S I also never boot people
Unless its the quest called "Summons from below"
It has a tempered elder dragon and alows someone with an hr 15
In most quests the hr that is needed has to be HR 50
So i boot anyone that hasnt beaten Xeno just for safe measure
But other than that im pretty sure most people would be more cautious of dodging after fainting once because its jot like they also want to loose
I boot people that stay in camp while I bust my ass tryna kill the monster lmao
thats an average of 12h / day
are you okay?
Send help. I need food, water, and clean clothing
A real gamer dosn't need fresh clothes
How is he only HR 106? Is it that long??? :o
Grumpyfat no
Grumpyfat I mean, I’m hr 108 and I have 230 hours, so kinda
"Not gonna happen to you"
Got 2 xeno'jiva gems in a row from tail carve
Amen
Happens to me all the time. All the three randoms getting Gems, sometimes two in a row... meanwhile, inside my materials pouch... sigh...
I oftenly get gems from Elder dragons lol
@Dexus Ex you don't know man, i got 2 nerg gems in a row and have 7 xenojiiva gems im not even lying.... But i still don't know why Im struggling to get a normal monster gem
@Dexus Ex use the plunderblade palico gadgets, Can get a gem with a very low Chance tho but still useful
Gold Wyverian print comes from Limited Bounty, easy gems every few days. Thanks for the vid!!!
two legiana pieces was so worth it. spent hours farming nerg for his gem, watched this video, got it on the next investigation.
Yeah that booting thing has been around for lomg time now. Usually people would just look at your armor set and then boot you if they think its not up to there standards. There were times I was rocking end game gear but because they said my defense isnt high enough I still got booted. My good ol' MH4U days.
Shame you can't tell a players true HR level. Was HR 15 for the longest time because of work. Two missions later, BOOM, HR 48 :P
Yea I did the same thing!
OlioliOxinfree in Monster Hunter 4U I was HR8 for like 6 months and when I beat the key quest I boosted up to HR95
SMH Booting New players for nothing. I won't crucify you but I will subscribe to a different MHW channel.
Trust Gaijin Hunter only when it comes to this series, he gives actual numbers and knows the game
Ya he posted a video with the exact drop rates. Not that there is misinformation here, but it would be easier to just say do investigations that have silver and gold rewards. Everything else is such a tiny drop rate that it isn't even really comparable to the investigation rewards.
Yup he helps me with generations so gajin hunter is good
Calico the humble Yokai Exactly
Back in the day we used Golden Rathian and it was enough too float in Gems.
And Partbreaker is very, very usefull as well.
You boot hr14 players! Wow that's community spirit booting players that need help, still as long as you get what you want that's ok yeah?
If he’s the one asking for help, he has the right to boot someone under hr 15. They’re usually not competent enough to know monster patterns close to perfectly and how to efficiently kill it
Mc Suspence lies.
He said he booted your mom hahahahahahahahhahahah
Lord Jagi he’s the one asking for help. They should focus on something that’s not out of there league
LOL I'm subscribed because of this
Im in iceborne and I never knew you could meld parts! Thank you so much!

There's more to it than just killing monsters now this serie sure has evolved
Watched two of your videos, and you gave instantly become one of my favorite creators on UA-cam. Please continue!
You can kick players out of the session? I never knew that how do you do it? I hate getting players who always do things like try to attack teo during the supernova thing. Don't get me wrong, I get that some people are just starting out (this is my first mh game too) but It's just annoying to lose the attempts of my elder investigations so quickly without any rewards and wasting time lol
I just find it best to solo Nerg, way easier
Incompetent people or newer players can make it tougher than solo with the believed 2.6x health buff for 2+ hunters....I'm at nerg now havent really had any issue soloing
TheFlamingTornado1 just solo then
Milbox R
I do for things that are difficult, but I like to play with others also
TheFlamingTornado1 fr I was fighting an Eldar dragon and had some random die twice which left me no room for error :/
This message is for the owner of the video.
Thank you so much for the information! It helped 100%. Farming for Gems has never been easier!
Sometimes I die a lot its frustrating, but sometimes I carry the whole team, the other day I bringed Lunastra 4 times down and still the others guys died and the quest failed. Everyone has its good and bad moments I saw people hr 14 better than some hr 60.
did u forget the effect of the food? all drinks can give u more loot too.
Added to the pinned comment, thank you
if you take on quest to fight 2 monsters in 1 go there hp is halfed, mixing heavy monsters with light ones can make the farm much faster, or give you 2x the loot for not much extra work
Hunting horn: most underrated Weapon in the game.
dont forget about the guild set that u get by doing the arenas
You can get 1 guaranteed gold print every week if you do all the limited bounties. You get it when complete all limited bounties. It’s how I have gotten gems for weapons. I have only craved 1 gem from a monster but I usually get gems from the rewards screen
What a wholesome guide video. The Adventure Time at the end is a plus too
Lol thanks man, that's actually Lumpy Space princess who says "gotcha" at the beginning of all my vids
TheGameconomist I never even noticed! Man I love that show
thanks dude! hadnt thought of doing this to increase gem chance!
360hrs and youve carved one gem haha bullshit advice... im 110hrs in and carved at least 15-20 gems from broken tails and bodies if the heads broke...
z_silversn4ke_z gaming *RNG*
z_silversn4ke_z gaming he sounds so annoying
Should I kill or capture to get gems....I don't think he stated that
Capture drastically raises gem drop rates.
great video. Thank you and can't wait for more hunting horn videos !

Thanks that actually helped me out a bit
Quick easy and straight to the point
I really truly feel if you are a good enough player soloing is much faster.

Honestly in most case all a group will do is lower your Zenny reward and if it is a low amount of carts allowed investigation they may also cause you to outright fail the mission.
Yea its a lot easier to control their aggro as well, but its really all about player skill in the end
Awesome vid, thanks!
so the drop rate of rare items is higher when you do investigations?
Yes I did notice this combination. Right now I am using the Guild Cross set with gives a High Reward chance since I mostly fight elder dragons now. You can get that set by getting the medals through the arena. Just got the 50 elder dragon killer title. Tempered elder dragons hurt...
Meh on your kicking level 14.True that if you are level 14 then you probably do not even have the good stuff yet.

I carved 2 xenojiva's gem out of her tail one after the other, that was a lucky day.
Most of my gems comes from carves... it is where your hunter makes a special carving animation.
There is a set that grants you great luck by equipping 4 pieces for that specific set which is the guild cross and getting the parts is by fighting arena quests
Added to the pinned comment, thank you
TheGameconomist Np I can feel the hunters where you need that gem but it isnt giving you it but when yoi dont need it actually gives you its mh or my luck
Ghilly The Explorer
Thats the classic MH Desire Sensor.
Spend 10 days farming a 1 nerg gem.
The hunt i get the gem... i carve 2 and get 4 from drops.
Mmmmm. Fuck you too game.
You can also get gems from silver boxes in the reward screen. I think I've actually gotten more gems that way but that's just because of the rng.
Does the increased material drop also benefit the people you play with? Could multiple people equip the same armor and stack the effect?
I’m confused on how the Legiana and Kirin sets work. I’ve looked everywhere for an answer to the following question. Do you need to wear it the whole mission, going into the mission, or can you change into it just before capturing/ending the quest? If you know, I’d really appreciate some feedback. Thanks
Sam Rhodes You have to start the quest, it can be you posting or a mate posting and you leave for quest when he leaves for it. Joining a seesion already in progress, even within 10min(quest rewards enabled) will not proc the armor ability.
Great video again! I wasn't aware of the Legiana favour for drops. I will build a hybrid with Kirin. Thanks mister
Its really good for farming a lot of the threat level 1 and threat level 2 gems, but I woulds say for the elder dragons, its better to run counter builds bc they are tough enough that counter builds will help you finish the fight sooner.
Thanks again for getting back to me. I don't know what you mean by a "counter build." Can you fire me a link, please? Much appreciated.
Ugh its speed runners and tryhards like you that got no business playing a game like monster hunter.
There's more to this game than just grinding and completing missions fast the game is meant to be EXPERIENCED not just played.
Why would you even boot anyone at all?
Rank dosen't mean Jack shit other than the mission difficulty you can access.
You're the type of player I like to call a "Hotshot Hunter".
You don't care about the fun or the team work you just wanna speed through it all and act like you know what you're doing cuz you know how to swing a charge blade.
Also in my experience Hotshot hunters like you are always the first to die.
Dark-Slayer Now, while you have *some* points, others are not so good. 1st: Some people actually do enjoy doing things fast. Speed runners are not in the wrong at all. It takes insane patience and redoing over to get to the point of memprizing a monster's patterns. Speed runs are quite impressive if done right. Look at Team Darkside, Cantaperme, Akantorex, etc. 2nd: There comes a point when many people just want to get something done. After fighting 20+ of the same monster and not getting your desired item, they will often look for ways to improve their chances. It's fine for a while, bit eventually it gets infuriating. 3rd: No, rank is not a huge factor for people's actual skill, but often times it can a hindrance. I personally don't boot based on rank, but I will of your equipment isn't up to par with the target quests. Even if the player is descent, it's the fact that they are taking unnecessary risks that could easily screw over the team as a whole (I normally let people do one quest, see how they perform, and then decide if they stay or go). Some people wear lesser armor just to make a challenge, but that should be done offline unless otherwise stated.
All in all though, it's everyone's preference, and if you don't like them, block them and you won't need to deal with them.
Well well... why would he boot someone? He said that. Same why I would do it. Its annoying when some people come join your Quest and after they joined it takes 5min and then its failed. Wasted time and its frustrating. And the best Multiplayer Experience is when 4 Solo Hunters come together. Rank means a lot. What is the difference between someone Hr100+ and someone HR29+ or whatever you are after killing Xeno? Equipment and overall knowledge. And that "Hotshot Hunter" thing really made my day. Thanks for the laugh. Not everybody wants to repeat a Quest several times a day when you dont have several hours time and want to make progress. Btw before you start to cpmplain about anything. I´ve played almost every MH Game and for quite long. Play it solo, learn patterns and stuff before you go in an HR Investigation with tempered monsters and die 3 times in 5mins. No Copyright for grammar mistakes. Keep all you find for yourself idc.
Wen Juckts the fact that you think Hunter rank means anything beyond the difficulty of missions you can access or how far you have made it in story or the missions you have already completed.
Says you're no different from this guy. Your rank means jack shit and don't protein to anything but your current progress.
Let me guess you think rank means something in games like Warframe, CoD or any other game.
I know Your type too.
The kind that brags about his rank and looks like a jackass when it's the rank 1 Hunter is the last one standing.
Dart-Tram16 They are not in the wrong but it's speed runners that screw over half the people they join in games like these.
I've had so many speed runners join my Damn game when I'm either in the middle carving rare materials or gathering or trying to break off specific parts and all they want to do is kill the monster and get out.
I've had my captures ruined by them too.
So if they are gonna bother with this game they need to stay in their own private servers or stay offline.
Dark-Slayer dude... look at mh speed runs and link me one with more then 1 person. Youll find none. Higher Rank = Better Euipment + more experience and therefore faster hunts. If you need 20mins for a Great Jagras then note to yourself. Thats really slow and not everybody wants to play that long for a single hunt. And thats all about rank that matters in MH for me. Also most of the time I play alone or help others who need help. Playing alone has much more benefits
Ive been farming odogaron gems for a week now. I need 2 to complete the set and glaive. It's great fun because odogaron is my favourite monster, but im getting annoyed. I really hope this works.
animatronic gnu
Why are you farming for the armor set? It's honestly not that good in later game. I made the whole thing and it's useful but I don't think the gem is worth it especially that's it's overshadowed by other armor
Because it has very diverse skills and looks freaking awsome
animatronic gnu
It does look pretty cool, but what other useful skills are other than speed sharpening and the 4-piece protective polish along with some critical eye? Speed sharpening is easy enough to get by decorations, so is protective polish but I unfortunately haven't gotten one yet. Critical eye is largely outclassed by weakness exploit. The set does look cool, but make sure you won't regret wasting a gem and time farming for it like I do. Sorry if I sound like a dick here, I really don't mean to but I already wasted time and effort trying to get something that was not very good soon after I got it in the face of elder armor
TheFlamingTornado1
Actually, some builds (including my current one) pretty much require protective polish, or at least 2 points in handicraft. 4x Odo set gives a good variety. Then take the eyepatch and its pretty damn good.
Until i can get the Sharp Decoration (yay... rng.... kms) im gonna be using this set...
TheFlamingTornado1 With d King eyepatch IT is pretty good
Good video bro. You said in the beginning of the video that the First Wyverian Print is really rare. Just checking, are you aware you get one of those guaranteed for doing the weekly bounties?
I'm almost at 900 now
That was a big ass kirin
My second fight with Xeno I carved two gems and got one as a reward, after that I've had real bad luck getting any other gems
Has there been interesting to see whether Kirin + legiana is better or worse than guild cross?
I have no problem getting plates and gems from carving, i sometimes carve 2 at once. The materials that give me a hard time are things like horns and fangs or other things that only reward from breaking parts. Even if i break both horns or talons or wings im lucky to get 1 in the rewards
Delzanzius i farmed 10 Majestic Horns in a day doing the rrrrumble in the west quest..break both diablos horns and black diablos horns and trust me you will get them
Mathew Mconaughy's little brother on the tips haha! Thanks dude!
Does legiana's good luck still apply when joining other people's SOS (before 10 mins) ?
Thanks for the vid. Im seeing ppl say that the Kirin set bonus and the Legiana set bonus DO NOT improve ur chances of getting a gem, but raises the chances of getting the other high level drops(plates,fang+,ect). Are they wrong?
That's a great question but no one would actually know the answer to that question without loads of data, or simply an answer from the devs. In my experience the only times I get more than one gem are when Im wearing the set
Does the Legiana/Kirin Favor affect decoration drops and warrior/hero stone drops? I find it hard to get warrior/hero streamstones so would the legiana favor help get warrior/hero stones?
Guild Cross Set gives you an extra carve
Meaning if you get a tail cut and kill the monster you get 3 + 1 carves from the body and 1 + 1 carve from the tail
You can only get gems from breaking monster parts, the carves or one gem for capturing.
So you get 2 shots plus the existing 4+ for a gem by killing an average wyvern with 3 carves and cuttable tail with the GC set bonus while capturing only gives you one extra shot.
No offense against Gajin Hunter but capturing is not always better, espec if it comes to gems
This is great advice and I love the name "soul of cinder". Excited for DSR?
Thanks! Unfortunatly I heard it's not worth the money :(
I have two first wyvern prints and I can't give it to the melded ?
So, let's say I beat up a monster with some other armor set and when it goes to sleep, I go to camp, change my armor to this set you showed in the video, and then capture it, will it increase my rewards?
I allways new about the bonus but I never thought it might be usefull. If this increases the gem drop rate it will save me a lot of time. I need a shit ton of different gems since I'm crafting All the weapons in the game and too many of them need a wyvern gem. I really hope this helps...
I was wondering if you cold make a guide regarding the armorpieces that you use when using a Hunting Horn, I'd really like to use some sort of support build with Hunting Horns but I'm not familiar with any good skills that should be prioritised
Would these loadout skills still trigger if i will only wear it after killing the main monster? I mean I still want to my main tank set and I will switch to kirin/legiana set before the 60 sec post-quest is done
Jay-ar Isidro no must wear through the whole mission
I've only killed 1 kushala and I carved 2 gems from it
I literally got what I wanted while watching this
Damn, I guess everyone's experience is different. I've gotten Wyvern Gems on carves and as a silver prizes lots of times. I received it as a silver prize more than as a gold prize which doesn't make sense to me, but I guess it is just RNG.
good info, please do wyverian print vid, besides weeklys
How can I tell the difference between elder dragons and a normal monster or dragon
I've gotten 1 wyvern gem from carving 1 for investigation rewards and 1 from a plunder blade all in one quest
Did you missed lucky tickets?
They help immensely. I seem to nearly always get a gem or ruby when i use one.
Also pet Poogie!
How to do mispronounce Legiana? Boy can you read? LEG-I-ANA.
its also stated by your partner during the cutscenes...
Does good/great luck increase feystone decoration drops?
I don’t know how rare a Wyvern gem is, but I got 4 under an hour.
Ive played about 70-80 hours so far and have carved approx 5 or 6 gems and about 8 plates
I have ur same HR with same materials , all armor and charms ... but i have only 200 hours ... This is pretty strange.
I also carved my first gem last night from a Nergigante tail.
I carved a Rathalos Ruby from my first Azure Rathalos. Not even joking.
I managed to somehow carve two Nergigante gems in a single quest; one from the tail and one from the body
Kyle Sutcliffe I hate you I've been farming
I have played the whole game solo and wanted roti adj anybody this question.
The first time you beat all the Elder dragons do they do a gem?
Or wad i having the luckiest day of my life?
I don't know what it is but i have fought Odogaron like 30 times with no gem yet i have fought Nergigante 7 times for 6 gems.
Ive fought nerg 9 times and have 2 gems. I dont know why but it does seem higher drop rates apply
I got 3 Nergi gems in a row but my cousin did about 20 nergi hunts to get a gem, so yeah... you my friend are pretty lucky
So if i am not hunting elder dragon, u recommend me build this full set for better loot ?
Do you have to be connected to the internet to do investigations?
Ive killed nergigante 28 times, mostly in investigations AND NOT A SINGLE GEM
a question? if I already gave augment to the armor and I gave max 17 lvl, what I have to do to be able to leveling up that same armor
Does the lucky cat food skill stack with the armor bonus?
I got two xeno gems from a tail carve in a row w/o any of the special bonus favors
I've fought Xeno about 6 times so far and the first time I got 3 Xeno gems and I got two more on the third and fourth run. Either I'm really lucky or they aren't that rare
would love to see your money farming strategy
the only problem that i have i want only 1 gem to upgrade the frost amulet to make the legiana set complete i fight legiana more then 11 time and i cannot cut his tale to get the gem i use arrows and kinsect glaive do you think i must use a sword to get the gem?
How did you manage to pronounce legiana leshiana?
I’ve completed 15-20 Legiana fights and haven’t gotten a gem, am I unlucky or doing something wrong?
Sounds unlucky
i have a question here, how parts do you need too have on from the sets too get the bonus's ?
Thank you man!
No problem!
what about the sexy suit armor set? I forgot the name. they need high accomidation tickets. Gallia? gilla?
they say bonus rewards
EDIT: gala!
So i have to farm Legia and Kirin first for the set then... This stuff right... Well i do use Kirin full set but only cap so hard on Elder...
Carving the gems is really up-and-down rng
I have got four out of my seven teostra gems from carving.
Also on the basilguise 2/3 from carving.
I’ve got the Vaal Hazak,teostra and xeno Gemma on my first try...but I don’t need them and I had a 170%(I calculated it with an official site that tells you the chance that you have of getting a certain item)chance of getting the pickle gem which you need for every deviljho weapon and I still have 0
What gem u using? i have to make that weapon too?
I have tried the hunting horn yet cause it seems like I would have more trouble using it and trying to remember all combos for each buff
Thanks for the vid, please more of Hunting horn gameplay videos?
I once got two anjanath jems off of carves in one hunt
It’s pronounced leg iana
Diamonddreakingyt Thank you
Diamonddreakingyt Does it fucking matter? No.
Lin Andy yes just like how some people get triggered when someone says something incorrectly in they native language
