Again, this feels like it all comes down to actually being able to farm enough mats to make multiple high grade weapons for the hunt a thon. And since I only got grade 5 Legi weapons, and I havent seen a Barrioth spawn since the urgent quest in the event line, I cant actually take on the 6 star with enough time. No idea how they think HR11 players are meant too. Its like the first diablos event all over again, niantic just isnt paying attention to the player base
I was a solo player only and farmed like mad. Despite that I do want to meet people and just play with them at least a few times to enjoy the multi player aspect. But the progress of the game is getting steeper and steeper for casual players. They are very important for the eco system of the game because the huge bulk of them are viewers for content creators, community discussion such as Discord and Reddit, and actually REAL people you see playing the game outside. Just these three days alone, I have seen zero real life players in Singapore even in city areas such as Cityhall MRT and Orchard. The Hunt-a-thorn nodes do have people nearby, but as I wait and check around there isn't anybody at all. At least in Black Diablos event popular biome tiles are very desirable and I still saw at least 10 people playing on foot. Niantic, please for the sake of the longevity of the game do something about it. It is a good game, but the design of a lot of the in game purchases and event mechanics is simply MEH.
The real bulk for niantic are the japanese players. More than 70% of the Worldwide income from mhnow is from japanese players who pay like crazy and do lots of group hunting. Niantic gives a shit about us Casual solo or country people 😂 Thats the Problem.
I found your channel just a minutes ago, and truly I fell in love with your personality and the content of your videos, you just earned a new subscriber, happy hunting bro! Greetings from Chile🇨🇱
Doesn't matter if you can solo them, im able to solo 7 star zinogres, but zinogre shells, the rank 1 material just does not drop, its rarer that the grade 5 horn. And that is the material needed for literally every upgrade. Its just unbelievably stupid
I (hunter rank 85) couldn't solo a single zinogre with my 7*2 legiana bow, nor with my 6*2 black diablos bow, which usually is good enough to beat any 7* monster...maybe I'm just bad, dunno, but a monster with so many attacks, that goes supersayan AND that you can only fight with 1.7X health...seems pretty tough for solo players...which seems to be nearly every player outside japan, for what i'm hearing in the community.
You don't need to complete Fulminations of the Frost to participate in the event. I tried the Hunt-a-Thon Zinogre multiple times before I beat the quest one last night.
Yes, you can solo it if you have strong enough weapons and the necessary perks. Which I currently don't have. I usually get stuck on the 5* cause they have boosted health. Just like Black Diablos. I have to keep grinding till I'm ready so maybe HaT #2 or #3. Lol
I got G8 5/5 Legi LS, can take out 6☆ and 7☆ but I need G9 5/5 for solo 8☆ and unfortunately I have to wait a week for Refining parts. Refining parts should be available in shop to purchase.
@@Reza-uw2lr doing a hunt-a-thon? Yeah, you can solo it with a Para build. The 6* Zinogre is typically close call to timing out, but it's definitely doable.
@@Reza-uw2lr I was able to do it using Rathalos helm & armor, Rathian gloves, Girros belt and legs. I've since changed my Ratha armor to Anja armor (because my Rathalos armor is still grade 5, can't get the damn prime scales), and I switched my Girros belt for a grade 6 Anja belt for 3 special attack. I also switched my Girros pants for Kulu pants to get the 2 crit, so my current set gives me: Lock on Burst 2 Crit 2 Special boost 3 Attack boost 2 Fire resistance 1 (which is useless, but it's there). I found that this build works better than the full Para build for a variety of monsters. I still switch to the Girros belt and pants if I need to take down a 7* Diablos. I tested this build against an 8* Kulu and I was able to do a lot more damage than I could with my original build.
great work fella, had a shot at one Hunt A Thon. but got my arse handed to me, it's not a bad feature, would be nice if we could hire a NPC to help if needed seeing has the player base is less then Pokemon Go
According to a few people in the different MHN Reddit chats, the 6* Zinogre HP is actually 2x and not 1.7x. I've been playing since Day 1 in September and my Chapter progress is in 8*. Bro, I've tried to solo the HAT Zinogre Dozens of times with different weapons and armor sets, using Raw and Elemental... Using 2 Special attacks per hunt and have Failed Every single one. I have have been humbled and it's left a disconcerting taste in my mouth. Sorry for rambling, but it's that bad lol 😅
@@Cozad2ll2 I have a 7 5/5 Kulu Long Sword and failed a lot but after spending some time on reddit some1 wrote u should hit the right paw until it breaks then go for the head. Worked for me killed 5 6* Zinogre now solo :)
Thanks for all the wholesome content, Kulu. Also, you're kinda right but also wrong, the wife of the most dreaded monster: Milla Jovovich has caused these rifts. Kappa
I’ve soloed a hunt a thon with grade 5 weapons all comes down to what elements your using. The 5* act like 6* and the 6* are 7*. I might have gotten one 6* but it’s not easy. Some people saying it isn’t fair, you still get to kill 3-4 extra monsters every 150 minutes I think. You don’t get anything special for completing it btw. I just wanted a badge
I would suggest sword and shield as its a lot easier to learn monsters moves. At HR67 you shouldn't have problems with a rathian at 5 star. If you need a build I would suggest paralyse sns with rathlos helm, rathlos chest, rathian arms, anj waist and pink rath legs. Really solid build for most weapons tbh. Love the content btw
I really appreciate you, but I think I was just playing really bad. I immediately took out a rathalos 1st try as the next monster so I think it was just a gameplay issue. Also obviously the Rathian is HAT boosted so normal 5 stars melt. Every HAT I've done since then, Rathian is no issue.
Niantic is treating this as a raid event NOT a solo event. So if you're soloing a 6* Zinogre, you need a Grade 7* or higher ice weapon to take it down. 😡
O último Boss da Hunt parece ter um buff no Hp. A legiana 6* eu solo tranquilo fora da huntaton mas no evento eu não tiro nem 60% dela, o tempo acaba antes de eu derrota-la
It does. All Hunt-A-Thon Monsters have 1.7x their normal HP. Google Translate: Lo hace. Todos los monstruos de Hunt-A-Thon tienen 1,7 veces su HP normal.
Archer here ( we got overnerfed imo ).Took down 2 of them with a friend, i just got ice atk 4 but havent found any today , havent been able to kill it with ice atk 3 but it was expected. Hunting barioths to get that lvl 5 ikce atk , then I'm sure i can kill it.
Yep, they really boosted out Hunt-A-Thons Monsters, more spicy atk n thicc armor so u really need a grade 6 (red) gear or above if you go on solo, or just raid it together with others, just like Poke-Raid in Poke-Go 😗👌
Ye, but no LBG, because at Zinogre its impossible to aim for its head. For me it was with Girros hammer 7/5 very close like u said. Its too hard vor Solo. I think also 1.5x hp is also enough difficulty, why 1.7? its way too much.
Today i struggled a bit beating a 5* Rathian and Rathalos in a hunt-a-ton😅 i crush 6* of these two so easily in the wild😄 Seems like the first 4 monsters are always with the same weakness aren't they?
This event was trash. I have pretty high level gear and I wasn't able to solo it... I've been playing since the beginning and have never seen another player. It's not possible for me to play any more than I already do on top of work and taking care of my family. Sucks because I enjoy this game but I can't do the events. I destroyed black diablos 7 Star but I can't be a six star zinogre
I love this game but at the same time it reeally pisses me off. There’s nowhere near enough Earth Crystals or Monster Bone +s out there. And my hunter is HR60 but i still can’t solo a hunt-a-thon. And it’s not like I suck. They constantly fill areas with pukei pukei, kula ya ku and jagras when they know damn well ppl don’t wanna keep seeing the same damn monsters. and taking away daily paintballs was lame too. Idk how much more i can take before I hang it up tbh
Some mobile tips for you Turn off the lock screen orientation Also, zoom out of your view during your hunts. Your life will be tremendlusly better. Happy hunting.
The event ia fun but again, even if normal farming takes u so much potions, what they expect u to do fightinh hp buffed monster one after the other nonstop... its juat a joke for the f2p base at this point
The problem is, for a content creator you're quite a bit under progressed. But I suppose it gives your videos a more progression Vlog style. I think you should put some time in to getting your weapons to grade 7-8 with viable armor to make some decent content. Going raw build is alot faster too so you shouldn't be taking this long to get to grade 7 😅
Tbh I'm a content creator with a life. If I was able to get out more, I would love to grind. It's not that my heart isn't in it, it's that I have a wife and a kid and a job lol. So this is basically the only game I play and my wife could tell you that I'm pretty obsessive. So I play a ton. Unfortunately RNG plays SUCH a heavy role and I can only spend about 5 hours per week on the game. While I would love to do this as a main thing, It does not support me financially. Until then, I'll just have to do what I can lol.
I still haven't seen a real benefit to hunt-a-thons. No special rewards if you beat the whole thing, just regular mats from more difficult monsters. Especially not needing to farm Zinogre, there's definitely no incentive to buy tickets, imo.

Agreed
Niantic cares more about who pays than who plays 😆 🤣
idk i been doing alright its just about time you dedicate to it and how well you play it. only problems ive seen is getting past grade 8 weapons.

I honestly cant solo zinogre. It would be nice to find some people that play in the area I live in.

Both ways are still low numbers tho. We have a group of 4 for this Sunday 👌🏼👹

@@SeteProject I know, but the weapons I have aren't fit to take on 6 and 7 star Zinogres are the end.
I need to hunt a 5 star or lower. lol

Yes, you can solo it if you have strong enough weapons and the necessary perks. Which I currently don't have. I usually get stuck on the 5* cause they have boosted health. Just like Black Diablos. I have to keep grinding till I'm ready so maybe HaT #2 or #3. Lol
Have no one that plays near me so was just asking myself this question earlier 😅 nice video

I've been able to solo them. I just wish they weren't on a 3-hour time gate.
I'm not strong enough yet 😢 But I did just make an Ice attack build
The 3 hour time gate is pretty player unfriendly. 0 ticket purchases from me, because I can't even take down a 6 star Zinogre anyway
I can solo a 6* huntathon with a 7/5 Malady's Tabar, but that's about it.
Wait, it works with paralysis element?
