Maaaaaaaan, reading how far everyone is makes me feel bad since I'm only HR2 who just finished his Tetasucabra armor.

I need to step up my game >_>

NCSoft did well with Lineage II and Guild Wars...

And Aion wasn't too bad, despite being really too grindy...

So we can expect a more grindy version of Monster Hunter? I cannot wait for Rathlos plates with a drop rate that's mathematically insignificant...

I made it to G-Rank but it's kicking my ass due to shitty armor. Hopefully some lunch runs with some coworkers will help.

If it can help even my Azuratha is letting the monster hit me like a train, I would try the Silveratha, but seriously I love HG earplugs too much for doing that...

That said, you should have the Frozen Seaway unlocked, you could try to farm some Hard and Heavy Armor Spheres there and see if it improves the performances while you wait to finish your G-Rank Tetsucabra one... (I believe you were aiming for that?)

Also, back on the NCSoft talk, I doubt that they'll make MH Grindier than it already is...

The system has been refined through decades and the game allows you for countless hours of play as it is since, unlike MMOs where is the equip that makes most of the challenges hard or not, in MH is required a lot of individual skill. Worst that can happen, and I'm saying worst for the purists, will be to get slender builds for the Hunters and maybe the appearance of races like Wyverians or Troverians with some random elf in it...

Yeah I'm trying to get G-Rank Tetsucabra for now. I really want something else, the skills keep me alive, but god damn if I don't' want high grade ear plugs. Although I need to upgrade my dragon weapons right now, since I got a talisman that gives me the dragon attack up skill, so I can't wait to make good use of that.

AN MMO might be interesting, I hope NCSoft keeps up the monster hunter aesthetic for the armor, as in if an armor is going to be skimpy for the girls it is for the guys as well. I'm a little tired of the trope of having the female high rank armor jsut be skimpy....

Although do you think they'll even bother with an English release of this or will I be stuck playing this on Korean servers.

I don't know about the english release, to be fair Monster Hunter is a pretty popular franchise so it would be most definetely a hit even out of Korea... Maybe that's why they have hired the NCSoft Veterans, to figure out how to sell it in NA and EU as well... Because, while I doubt a monthly fee system could work, a "buy the game and play forever" like guild wars would make it more popular...

...but we all know Capcom recently, they want to sell us only their countless "Something vs Something" fighting games...

About the armor: HG earplugs is almost a must in this game, considered how painfully often the wyverns roar. I have found myself playing on a completely different level once achieving it...

NCSoft would probably do a decent job of getting it to catch on here, or at least I would hope, I think most companies are starting to get the monthly subscription model doesn't really work anymore unless you're WOW.

I really need earplugs, the variant Testsu has them, but then a bunch of other skills I don't exactly need, well unless I want to start running a shield. I've gotta figure out what the next set I want to shoot for, because my current set is basically to make it so I can fight in G-rank.

Become a Rathazinger Z too...

It has a lot of nice skills for dual\critical bases skills...

Expert +20 (You need a whole +10 to raise it's level, so a Talisman, but beside that it's awesome to have +20% critchance on your hits.)

Hearing +13 (Needs decorations but it's pretty neat nonetheless)

Critical Element +10 (You use elemental blades, you do a lot of crits, the extra damage would be nice.)

Sharpness +6 (Easily brought to +10)

And it comes with a sweet 8 slots, so even if you don't have any talisman to fix thing, it can house all the gems.

Currently, with a silly +4 o (o Meaning one decoration socket, just in case.) hearing talisman I got:

HG Earplugs, Sharpness +1, Null Tremor, CritElement +1 and Critchance 20%. Though I'm planning to replace null Tremor with Fencing somewhere soon...

Yeah I really want to get HGE on a GS set. The one I was wearing gets me by but ideally I'd like a Honed Edge, HGE, Focus, Crit Draw looking set. Challenger+2 would also be possible because you're wearing mostly Furious Rajang. I'd need a Edgemaster+3 with Focus/Crit Draw and maybe some open slots to pull it off without avoid looking like a clown most likely. I should get on those GQs already.

I thought the Disposable Earplugs were cool in the demo but now I find myself sitting on them because I don't find the time to pop them. Plus sometimes you can waste them because you're either out of position when it roars or it roar spams.

Honestly appearance is the reason for me to not bother with Sets mash-ups, I know it can dramatically improve your performances, but honestly it's not I need it for pvp or endgame monsters are unbeatable otherwise...

Also is 127 the highest amount of defense all the G-Rank armors can get? Kinda feeling thrown off into getting the Akantor X armor now...

Trust me I'm a fashion hunter myself. I still like to mix to get skills I want as long as it looks pleasant still. No Rhenopolos gear for me.

Wait there are disposable ear plugs????

Now set can look worse than what I was running in Freedom Unite, it was a mismash of cenatuar, Hermataur diablos and monoblos parts... It looked awful, but I think it sharpness up, half sharp loss, quick sharpen and Crit up if I remember. It was an awesome set to use for duel blades

Got the game and a 3DS yesterday. A Majora's Mask one too boot, since I showed up the same time the UPS delivery dropped off stock and the chick working offered me it.

Any tips for starting out? I fiddled with it a little at work and I do like it - controls are monumentally better than the last time I tried, but I feel a little overwhelmed with how much there is in there to learn it seems.

Hard to say really. Aside from telling you to hit things until they die just get a ways into caravan. Just have fun and get to know the monsters a bit before heading into the Gathering Hall. Things like your wycoon, fishery and kitchen upgrades solve themselves the more hunts you do.

My FC is in this thread so feel free to add it. I'd just slap on my my LR gear so things don't get steamrolled. I probably need some low rank mats anyways since I'm messing with other weapons than GS right now.

Oh and the Disposable Earplugs are bought with your caravan points from the Wyceum in Dundorma. I think around halfway through HR caravan they unlock around the time you get your first Wystone. I actually think it's Apex Seregios that unlocks it but I might be wrong.

Like I said though I never really find time to pop them. The few times I attempted to make use of them I was always too far away to get a significant hit in or they get wasted during a teammates mount.
