Actually it's sumo palm slaps gesture.

Palico : I know kung fu.

Not exactly.

It's more like meet and kill more new monsters.

This is one shot :

Maybe some of you are playing it wrong.

I grind for 8 hours on 19 Apr and already got both Taroth alpha & beta armour set, all costume armours, both Taroth & Samurai palico set.

General Gathering Hub strategy for good loot within shortest time spent :
1) Use the search Online session filter, set to "Experience" & "Kulve Taroth" preferences.
2) Join the resulting session populated with at least 13/16.
3) Check the current pursuit level and the current available siege squad pursuit level.
4) If the current pursuit level is 3 or 4 and the available squad pursuit level is 1, don't waste your time joining them.
5) Wait for someone to start a siege at current level 3 or 4, then join them if members are HR 100+.
6) Once you complete the round (not expected to break the horns here), your rewards level will jump from 1 to at least 8 pursuit 3 or level 10 in pursuit 4 depending on the hub's siege progress.
7) Wait until someone started pursuit 5 or 6, then join them if members are HR 100+.
8) When the horns are broken by other squad, your rewards level should be around 15 or even the max 17.
9) If your squad manage to break the horns, then if you are lucky you can carve max 2 melded weapons per horn piece.
Bonus) Get your forging gem from the carving horn plating drop anytime during any pursuit level. Don't rely on the end quest rewards, because it is super rare when it happens.

It's not selfish when I do contribute for parts breaking to the hub's siege progress and heal team members too.
Also keep gathering tracks and gold chips to increase the pursuit level, when most players I see don't bother to do this as much.

Don't tell me you will keep joining level 1 pursuit siege to "help" when part cannot be broken easily here, when the hub's pursuit level is at 3 or 4 ?

I don't even join discord for any games I play.

Just play as usual with strangers where hi & bye in every session.

No drama or whatever political nonsense to disrupt any of my gaming enjoyment.

Not difficult because of 14 different weapons to choose from, so the play styles are varied.
You will find at least 1 weapon which will fit your style.

I only played the 1st Monster Hunter on PS2 & quit after 2 days, and never played any other Monster Hunter titles after that until now.

Played MH World with 0 knowledge, I platinum it in 3 months using strictly Charge Blade only.

Wind Resistance is useless, still get knocked down when running into the tornado.

I just put Level 3 Fire & Thunder Resistance, got +20 Def from these.

Just as I suspected, Jump emote can avoid the Ecliptic Meteor.

Finally after teaming up with randoms for 40 hours, won against Extreme Behemoth.
I'm a charge blade hybrid balanced tank, medium damage attacker, with full wide range healer.

Yesterday's night situation was starting to get bad where most hosts will just kick me when I joined, not realizing that I'm usually the last one standing & least likely to faint 80% of the time.

Didn't watch any videos of the last boss, so didn't know beforehand how it looks like, how it attacks and how to fight it.

I soloed the last boss using my original MHW endgame HR armour & charge blade with 5 mins remaining on 1st try.

Just fainted only 1 time using survival experience from facing Extreme Behemoth.

The purpose of wearing the Tigrex armour is to maximise the usage of 75% Free Meal chance.
But you can wear 2 piece Blackveil beta for the constant healing, while keeping the Tigrex's 75% Free Meal chance.

My suggestion :
Discard the Critical Eye & Attack.
For offense purpose you should be adding Weakness Exploit & Critical Boost first until it maxes, then only add Critical Eye and lastly Attack.

Suggested setup :


Use :
Defense Boost charm or Divine Blessing Level 3 charm.
Stun Resistance Level 3
Health Boost Level 3 (by any combo of Level 4 decos that helps your play style)
Free Meal Level 3
& then any other type of skills that helps your play style.

Bring :
10 Mega Potion
10 Potion + 10 Honey (to make Mega Potions)
5 Dash Juice
10 Might Seed
10 Adamant Seed

Concentrate on survival first and offense second.
If playing solo, equip your Palico with Vigourwasp heal.

You can also consider using a Rarity 6 weapons with single to triple Health Regen augments.

Soon, you can make your Palico into a Rozen Maiden.

Alatreon Special Assignment starts with Fire Active not ice.
Bring Ice weapon.

Aletreon's Escaton Judgement nova deals fixed damage regardless of defense or resistance values.

The fixed damage is reduced only if you can topple it after dealing enough elemental damage and "containing its power" as notified by the Handler.




The resistances are helpful to avoid blights & reduce damage taken during its regular attacks.
