Didn't do much yesterday

watching you take down diablos was fun...very shiny and flashy experience

Diablos isn't that hard actually, just need to be patient like the other monsters

When can we do Uragaan?

uragaan tips?

Uragaan very similar to Barroth, but deadlier, so attack it only when you are absolutely sure it's safe.

Some safe moments:
1. Double double chin attack - it will stop for a while after this attack
2. Sleep/fire mist - it's tail tip is safe spot
3. Traps - try to focus on its deadly tail first, hammer can only use super on its chin
4. Mega chin attack- very long opening
5. Rolling attack - either roll straight or do a round or do an 8 (except when it rolls from its resting place) and the same as Barroth applies, attack from its left, the tail will flip to his right.

thank you! hope to nail the pancake maker soon

I was online from noon till midnight last night! LOL
Ok the new tier 2 monsters are no joke... Looking for "openings" is harder.
Gigginox, Barioth, Uragaan - still need to get used to it.

I've tried offline again and confirmed, I cannot "stun" bosses (?) - no stars.


Has anyone been with another Hammer user? I wanna discuss mechanics.
R button > Has a animation time of 1 sec before it swings.
R button (hold down) > 1sec charge / 2sec charge / 3sec charge MAX = Spinning Attack
X > X > X is the 3-hit combo.
A > X > X is another combo with upswing finisher.
X+ A > > Wind-up Smash


And some other hunters comments about Uragaan: http://mhwiki.forumotion.net/monster-hunte...ragaan-t476.htm

I see your problem

Hold R button and charge 3 times, stand still and release, that's super pound, the single most important hammer move.

Haha, think I always push the direction, thats why it goes into "Spinning Attack".

Anyways, time to resynch Hammer offline.

Btw, for newbies like me - read the MH3 forums. Some very good tips from Rook.
This is very interesting read: http://mhwiki.forumotion.net/monster-hunte...e-them-t484.htm

Are you still playing offline?

dunno what to get for switch axe.... lagia or baroth?? (after maxing bone upgrades)

Try getting elemental types (Fire, Water) and status effects (Paralyze)

haihz.

anyone up for giginox? I've captured him twice offline today and killed once online a moment ago with hiro, and still no unnerving fang
am bored of fighting all alone in the dark...

wanna upgrade my bowgun to heavy

btw, hiro says he will be online today at 9PM. Nintendo should really scrap wii speak and make the rooms bigger.
