MHGU Valor HBG Guide Updated

[@Cyborgs7]

I'll add something about the Valor Reload stuff.
If you do a valor reload/cancel valor reload, if you hold B the character will start running without rolling

i know Im asking the wrong place but does someone know a tool to get back into an instagram account..?
I stupidly forgot the password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me.

[@caysonreign2079]

@Terrance Harper thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and Im trying it out now.
I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@caysonreign2079]

@Terrance Harper it worked and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thanks so much, you saved my ass :D

[@terranceharper6193]

@Cayson Reign you are welcome xD

Good shit my dude 👍🏽

[@HuntsGames]

Long time MHGU player and MH in general, been a GS user through and through but wanted to master HBG. This helped me a ton!

[@CodenameSwitch]

I like the video! Really good advice and I learned a lot. If I could make any suggestion, I would just say to keep some of those still screens up longer so we don’t have to pause as much. Pausing probably isn’t a huge deal on PC, but when viewing on mobile it puts play, and playlist navigation arrows over the screen when paused.
Keep up the great videos! Happy hunting!

[@gitv1ld]

RJ93 Gaming You can hide the intrusive mobile play/pause controls while paused by tapping anywhere else on the screen. Still a good suggestion.

[@senbonzankura]

Best tutorial i've seen so far, very clear and
complete!

[@puggy3796]

i really love hbg my most favorite weapon the problem is im really bad at it

[@SlayerJaeger]

If it's solo its more diffcult then co op.

[@yakdish91]

really like how simple and to the point your videos are.. i just started MHGU and hopefully you can make a guide for LR and set of goals to aim for in terms of armor and how to fly through to late game where the real fun is..

[@johncabuguas6691]

Cheers for the thorough guide, kind sir! Straight forward and no willy nilly info. Liked and Subbed!

[@artorias5851]

Thx for the guide dude, never picked up heavy bow gun until mhw and loved it so been wanting to get into it with mhgu and other than gaijin yours is the only other video, like yours better since u actually show the button presses 👍

[@SlayerJaeger]

Im also going to make a lbg guide

[@artorias5851]

[@Angels-Haven]

I wanted a tutorial on valor HBG and you delivered, I even got more than I was looking for with a sweet tech valor reload cancel, love it

[@JanusHoW]

It cannot be overstated just how incredibly powerful this weapon/style combo is. To whit - my first successful Bloodbath EX hunt was with a bunch of randoms, me and two others running Valor HBG, and one running a status gun for a "hame" run of sorts - we couldn't use traps because the quest takes place on Ingle Isle - but even then we obliterated that terror in a little over one minute from quest start to quest complete.

[@gitv1ld]

Nice tutorial, thanks! I'm just learning HBG and you cover details not found in other tutorials. The on screen button display makes it easier to follow the narration. The text summaries at the end and the ammo MV lists are very useful too. I like your format as a whole. Thanks for making it.
What is the 1.48 weapon class modifier? And the Elemental 0.95 modifier?

[@sentientshadow126]

Way late on the response, so it's probably not useful to you anymore; but in case other ask the same question:
The class modifier is a global modifier just for using a HBG, LBG would have a different lower value (if not just 1; new to MHGU, so can't be more specific). So firing any ammo from a HBG boosts raw damage output by 1.48x.
Similarly, all elemental shots inherently reduce raw damage (presumably to compensate for additional element); in this case it multiplies raw by .95 (meaning it does 95% the raw damage it otherwise would've).
Further, (to my knowledge) all of these modifiers are multiplicative. So if you wield an HBG, ate for Temper, have activated Gunpowder Infusion and fire an elemental shot: the raw component is multiplied by 1.48*1.05*1.05*1.1 for a final multiplier of 1.79487; which would presumably get rounded (however the game deals with that): so a near 80% bonus raw damage on top of whatever the element from the weapon comes out to.
And to those who may know better: feel free to correct whatever's wrong. I'm very new to GU (literally days since I started and only, *maybe* 10-15 hours of play: literally only fought two large monsters but have been reading plentifully and come from World and Rise).

[@charlesahweyevu]

Hey. I subbed just because how well done and informative the video is. I hope you grow well.

[@ExhibitedDrip]

Subbed and pressed the bell icon. Enjoyed the video looking forward to watching the other videos on your channel. Keep up the good work man!

[@TwilightKrauser]

This video is still quite relevant. I'm expanding from Adept LBG into Valor HBG and the tips from this vid have helped me A LOT!!! So thanks, Slayer! :D

[@SlayerJaeger]

Glad it was helpful!

[@adamkay1201]

Impressive
Great tutorial videos. Very simple, direct, and complete. From what I can tell you cover everything there is to cover from how to change ammo to advanced little tricks and cancels.

[@vonbravo5237]

What's the title of the background music?

[@herviehervie]

Great vid! Very informative! Can you guide us with bows too? Also your top five bow and bowguns will surely be a help to us! Thank you!

[@SlayerJaeger]

I have a list of all top weapons but I dont have the time to make them lmao. I was planning on making a valor bow guide

[@jfreeman4275]

I really appreciate your videos.

[@kindaedgy3548]

Aerial style's pretty good for hbg :v not better than valor, but certainly better than adept since the aerial siege fire negates recoil by 100% and the reload gives you blue power bullets. Not to mention the vault automatically reloads your bullets. It also doesn't take away your normal siege fire

[@hasnulaswad3386]

really easy to understant thank soo muchhh!!! :D

[@ermdon]

I am trying to understand the differences between valor and adept. Is it just because of the reload speed and how much quicker you are able to reload the HBG that one would go valor instead of adept ? I hope my question makes sense

[@thimblethimble4619]

you use valor becuse seige mode deals stupid damage with pierce shots.
It also has good utility and mobility.

[@bishounenpooru]

i learned more about valor hbg in 10 mins from this vid than i did researching the past few days lol!
now i must ask do you have any good economical hunting friendly armor progression tips?

[@maelidir5964]

Great video. I do have a question though. Before entering siege mode, if you do a valor reload, does it boost damage ? or is it just a way of keeping the valor up longer ? thanks

[@1Strawbs]

I believe it does. iirc the ingame weapon tutorial says so

[@raythetiger7701]

im a bit late but that was an eye opener. thx a lot :D

[@SlayerJaeger]

you're welcome

[@davidtiongco8703]

Fantastic Coward HBG tutorial/info vid!
It is a great style for just cheesing through tedious fights to get to the fun stuff.

[@SlayerJaeger]

online it's cheesey, but solo it's more difficult because the monster will be targeting just you.

[@buckcherry2564]

@@SlayerJaeger I find, no matter the weapon, cats eat a ton of aggro in solo and with any ranged weapon, taunt cats really hold it well. Life powders reduce their revive time too, if they eat too much damage.

[@SlayerJaeger]

@@buckcherry2564 Yep they do

[@soulblack4445]

Thank you so much for the info. Started using hbg for the first time. It is super weird to use it since i just started. One question, how do you aim after roll or slide and enter siege mode in valor state cuz when I run away and slide, i press x+a and he starts aiming somewhere else.

[@armoraya3370]

thanks for the video i just started the game !

[@SlayerJaeger]

Awesome I have a list of videos u can watch

[@xtro7355]

I'm just now learning hbg, but I don't understand the aiming and shooting part of it. When I hold R to get the redical on the screen, why then is aiming that redical the right analog stick? It seems VERY clunky to aim with the right stick and shoot with the A button since it's not possible to effectively do both at the same time using your thumb. Is there not a way to aim with the left stick and shoot with A? That feels WAY more natural. Maybe I'm missing something here? 😕

[@SuperMattio619]

What's the main reason to use Zinogre's HBG over Kushala's?

[@SlayerJaeger]

depends on charms, since daora only has one slot and zin has two

[@JohnWhite-ry8te]

What armour/ gun should I work up to? I'm at hr5 and currently use seregios gun with full glavenus armour for recoil down.

[@SlayerJaeger]

Armor should be rathalos s, shagaru hbg

[@JohnWhite-ry8te]

ApexSlayerXIII how do you get the shagaru hbg? Is it an upgrade from gore hbg?

[@SlayerJaeger]

yep its a upgrade from gore hbg

[@Alastorchaos]

Any chance you could post a recommended heavy bowgun progression through the game, at least until the top 5 are accessible? Cheers. Awesome guide!

[@SlayerJaeger]

i could try

[@Alastorchaos]

It'd be helpful! Admittedly, there's a ton of guns up to that point and the question is: "which ones are worth it in the hands of someone skilled (like yourself!)? You don't even need a full guide - just some thoughts on Low Rank, High Rank, and even pre top-5 G-Rank guns would be helpful!

did u see my top 5 hbg video?

@@SlayerJaeger I did! Is it safe to assume that all the guns leading up to those 5 are viable?
