Gahhhhh. Goddamn Hero streamstone for Axe will never drop for me. Think I've farmed like almost 100 tempered elders. I keep getting Hammer and Ranged Hero streamstones. Please RNGesus!

I think Vaal is the easiest but Kush is probably right after that. Effluvia res 3 and earplugs, the fight becomes incredibly trivial

You know whats infuriating. You try to join a Tempered SOS session but you get an error and all of your SOS settings reset. What the actual **** Capcom lol.

Yea they have content planned for the rest of the year. I think there was a leak somewhere on the net. A new monster released each month from Deviljho in March onwards and a new zone (snow themed) somewhere in between

any ETA on Deviljho?

HR 70 player here. It really depends on what you're fighting against and what weapon you're using. For example you would totally edit your build for Hazak and run Effluvia resistance 3 or Wind protection against kushala

Most people go full offense (attack, critical weakness, heroic, agitator etc) and ignore utility skills that would a lot more useful.

Earplug 5 is consistently the most useful skill to have, particularly against Nergigante. Handicraft 5 is also really important if the weapon you're using is able to reach "White Sharpness". This video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_B6zzuaTsg) would explain that.

I rock up with Evade extender as well because I run a switch axe build and it helps me stick to the boss like glue when I'm in sword mode (does the most damage but not mobile at all) or easily dodge some of their attacks.

This is what I roll with
Weapons: Axe of Demons
Head: Bazel Helm B
Chest: Kushala Cista B
Gloves: Kaiser Vambraces A
Pants: Bazel Coil B
Greaves: Kushala Crus B
Charm: Handicraft Charm 3

So I end up with
Earplugs 5
Evade Extender 3
Handicraft 5
Weakness Exploit 3
Non Elemental Boost (For non-elemental weapons) - can be subbed for other decorations if you're running an ele weapon.

There is an app on the Android( and also I assume the IOS) store called "MHW Armor Set Maker". I HIGHLY recommend taking a look at it. SOOO useful in building various sets of gear for different weapons, encounters based on the skills you would like to have.

Awesome it'll help me get over the depression of not being able to get a Heros streamstone after like 100+ tempered elder kills lol

Here is the link for the weapon changes and Deviljho updates: https://kotaku.com/monster-hunter-worlds-fi...h-22-1823759680

the new armor looks pretty badass.

You might be right, time to crank out the good ol hammer

Was hoping for changes to the SoS settings but ah well, can't have everything good in life i suppose.

I BET they're not running Stun resistance 3.

Welcome to the best 200-300 hours of your life on the PS4

Switch Axe as my main /favourite. For secondaries, usually between Sword and Shield or Lance

I managed to one shot tempered kirin but I did do research in advance before attempting the encounter. These 3 are pretty mandatory - Stun resistance 3, Paralysis resistance 3 and Thunder resistance 3. The approach I went with to play with a non-committal style. Just don't go all out and unleash your combos unless its stunned or downed. Play conservatively, defensively and patiently. Throw a couple of hits then back off, rinse and repeat. I went with a dragon elemental switch axe and killed it within 20 minutes.

Yea some of the fights do take a while, especially if you solo. I do solo some of the harder encounters unless I'm grouped up with some friends.

Monsters would run away often, but I think they're buffing Insect Glaive on the 22nd March update where your buffs would last longer and have better effects overall.

This is why you're meant to carry Dung Pods. Every item in the game has a purpose

Once you master SA, you wont go back. The damage output is cray cray.

Made a post recently (2-3 pages back) on how to deal with Tempered Kirin. Full defensive gear + non-commital offense.

I run Axe of demons (black diablos tree) with handicraft 5 and non-elemental boost. I get around 1k unbuffed attack

I only use it when I party up with my squad. Other than that, I don't really think its necessary.

BTW does anyone know if the Deviljho update is today or tomorrow?

Yea saving your equipment sets will also save your decorations you have equipped
