This man is legitimately the best old gen Monster hunter TH-camr out there he has helped with tons of my hunts and im on Freedom Unite, terminally stuck at Tigrex but after watching your guide it helped me rralize that i just need to have patience,learn his moves and after a while im gonna destroy that dumbass Tiger
Hey, thanks! Happy new year to you too 🙂 I don't think I'll have enough time to myself unfortunately, but that's the case for everyone 😅. Maybe one day. Yeah, well, I'd say in the recent games she's less annoying haha, she's just so messy in this one. It's funny because I remember saying that I really like the Rathian fight, but that must've been in, like, World or Rise or something.
@@HeadHunter455 I also recently said to a few people how I generally like the Rathian fight, I'll soon give her a re-fight in all the games I play to see and feel the main differences.
@@HeadHunter455rathian fight is a classic because you can expect what she does, and you can play around it, which tends to fall flat when they “add” stuff to this tight imo, if that makes sense.
Something i ended up doing regarding capture is flashing. they usually then idle for enough time to place traps. utilising traps when a monster is hungry (such as the clip her head breaks on the gargwa) will increase their effective timer. as for ls..... i only pull it out to make things that annoy me go away, i'd like the entire fucking gauge system, to go away, that r finisher is easily without a doubt the worst thing they've ever done to the LS. all of my hunts were worse, both of time and play trying to get that fucking red gauge. and in 4u well I sure don't think they fkn changed it LOL. for plate wanters, there's a triple rathian quest alongside you capturing and cutting off a rathian tail.
For these videos I use a pretty minimal item loadout, *just in case.* I try and keep things really simple, if I can, but that's really good advice! 😄 tbh I don't even consider that for my own play haha, though I don't use flash bombs a whole lot either, I really should. And yeaah lol, honestly. 4u added the Foresight slash spirit combo starter to skip the first attack in the spirit combo which *does* help, quite a bit (but they also made the spirit level go to 0 after the timer runs out which is pretty oof), but IMO the leveling system never really made much sense until 5th gen, with World, and then Rise took it and introduced a lot of really cool ideas, but I'm looking forward to how it looks in Wilds as well. 2nd gen LS was in a surprisingly great spot for what it was. Also, good tip on the 3 Rathian hunt. It may seem daunting, but since it's a multi monster quest (in the village too!) they'll have less HP per monster. Not sure if having less HP would affect the tail cut/head break, but yeah, it should at least improve the odds if someone wants a plate before high rank. It's in 5 star village which is after this current tier though, if anyone else is reading this lol
@@HeadHunter455 thank you man, before i start a hunt in mhfu i will always check your video first, they're the best i can find on youtube, just don't push yourself too hard. Good luck and stay safe
Yeah I needed a little break >.< I used to use FRAPS, but it's not very good in retrospect, now I use NVIDIA's Overlay/Shadowplay to record. It works pretty well. A good alternative if you can't use that is OBS.
i find the wind pressure complaints pretty weird since ls kind of ignores it while slashing the hit lag thing though is something i learned from here just now and explains why i can't ls smoothly in this game wao
You're not always attacking, you don't always want to be attacking. Repositioning is an active action which supersedes attacking. Repositioning is extremely important, and, specifically, what moves Rathian does that has Wind Pressure is extremely inconsistent.
I see a player trying to keep themselves sane. If I see a player who keeps dying and says that this game is fun, either he's gone insane or a masochist. I'm the latter😂 Anyways, I am not much of a fan of 3rd gen longsword, 2nd gen is much easier to get into. It's much more matchup dependant than before, due to its changes (its motion values has been nerfed, and when I compare them the spirit buff isn't that worth it in exchange for all the work, in my opinion.)
lol yeah, don't get me wrong, challenge is good, it CAN add depth and longevity and make things funner in the long run, something to eventually work towards and achieve, sure, but sometimes it's just like I'm beating my head against a wall, like, I'm doing everything that I can, and I'm STILL getting shit on. That's how I feel about Primal Malzeno, I did his fight so many damn times and I never felt like I was getting any better, same with Fatalis and Alatreon in world. It sucks, I don't get that feeling of chipping away at something, it just feels insurmountable. Also yeah, 2nd gen LS is one of my favorite versions of the weapon, by far, even considering the additions in 3rd and 4th gen. World brought things back around FINALLY and made the weapon make sense, but 3rd and 4th gen (not including GU tbh) just don't make any sense, they just nerfed the weapon without giving us anything in return, honestly. 2nd gen LS is a reliable weapon that just works. 3rd gen LS (p3rd at least) is a weapon where you need more luck than you should in order to make it work, and 4th gen... well, they made it easier to level up, sure, and that's great, but since you reset to 0 after the timer runs out, the levels mean less than they used to 😭 so it's like???? Like, it still works, and I like 4th gen more than 3rd, but MAN. 4u LS made me main GS (and later CB), and that carried into world, so at least there's that lol
Hey welcome back, man. Just a question at 2:22 do i need to press any button when that happens? There is nothing like that in MHFU so i dont know. I just let the Rathian gobble me up like that in MhP3rd.
I'm not sure if pressing the face buttons does anything, I know I used to do that, but for this video I was just spinning the analog stick, yep! I was spinning like crazy apparently because normally I always get nibbled on twice, but this time it was just once 😎
np, this also works while being stunned, snow/mud covered, and even put to sleep, though waking up faster this way is a lot less noticable than stun/snow/mud, and I only tested that in MHFU.
There's a lot of people playing p3rd (and MHFU) in Hunsterverse, it's where I'd recommend everyone go to play. Check here for more info: hunstermonter.net/hunsterverse_new.php If you already know about it, I'd recommend checking their discord and asking there. If you're looking for anyone else, you can try asking around my discord, but you're more likely to find people in the Hunsterverse's probably.
I'd like to, but with p3rd and everything else in my life, I don't have the time. It's also a mess to get working, at least compared to any of the other games.
Yeah, I'd really like to, especially since it's not going to be changing any time soon, I hope, but I'd want to do a playthrough first, and I don't have the time right now unfortunately. One day I'll at least stream it a bunch, because I really want to play it even just for myself 😄
lol I never left :P If I was happy with the quality of these types of videos I'd upload a lot more often, this was a side thing I did because I felt like I should cover LS considering I used it to farm Rathian and I know a lot about how this matchup works because of that, I also mention in the main guide using LS as a recommendation.
Yeaah true, but 4th gen DID give us the ability to skip the first step of spirit combo from a fade slash, which is pretty huge all things considered. But playing 4u made me main Greatsword... (and Charge Blade later on) that's how bad it was lmao 😅😅 I'm almost grateful for it though, I went into MHWorld using GS and it's so good there. I also liked CB in World too 🙂
Thank God the Raths don't really have as potent wind pressure in recent games. I've always felt it was one of the cheapest and worst mechanics in the series, and one of the sole contributing factors for why gen 4 Rathalos could be very bullshit. Who the hell enjoys trying to play around invisible hitboxes?
Yeah lol it's so dumb, she can be flapping her wings and I'll be fine but then she does another action and all of a sudden THAT staggers me?? It's so inconsistent and the range and duration of it is way too high.
@@HeadHunter455 I was just fighting Silver Rathalos in GU. Easily one of the most disgusting and bullshit fights I've ever seen in these games. What an abomination. All these traits and then some.
Oof! Yeaah, in FU the metal raths were... annoying... I can only imagine they get more power creeped as time went on lol Like, I get it, they're a rare species and they're supposed to be powerful, but that doesn't mean they have to be annoying or unbalanced 😭 I definitely feel that way about some fights in the series 😣
@@HeadHunter455 Yeah at least in FU you could punish Rathalos for flying during certain attacks. Not only is Silver faster and stronger than usual because of course, he almost never lands without being flashed, and if you play greatsword like me, you have no choice but to attempt to snipe his wings when he does the gap closer before an attack. There's a speedrun for it if you're interested in seeing what that looks like: th-cam.com/video/7mjJ9snRG1w/w-d-xo.htmlsi=_wGw3x3ze43N2P1W
yeah lmao, they even added some sort of sour spot to that attack, I'm not sure if it's being hit by the end of the attack or if I'm hit by the hitbox of her legs or what, but sometimes you can get hit for super low damage, which is much preferable to the full amount.
So easy fight this rathian except I use sns to fight this rathian… is not hard just… complicated fight.. also time consuming and brain rot every fight….
1. Movement is binary, you're either moving or your not, so... yeah, I'll either be waiting or running around 2. Because Rathian sucks and there's not often something you can do. 3. In Monster Hunter, in general, sometimes standing still is the best thing you can do. 4. If you try and attack all the time, you're just going to get hit.
The plate carve is real
😭
Can we get much higher

Happy new year. Hope you find time for yourself this year and relax.
Nice display of what Rathian used to be, in the recent games she was much easier.

I've been around, still working on the main Rathian video, it's taking a while, Rathian is... a mess.
Yay the guides are back. Btw what screen recording software do you use
Yeah I needed a little break >.<
I used to use FRAPS, but it's not very good in retrospect, now I use NVIDIA's Overlay/Shadowplay to record. It works pretty well.
A good alternative if you can't use that is OBS.
