This is very wholesome, what a great dynamic. Shout out to Ruri for being so on top of spoilers and respecting his playstyle etc. This is how we welcome new Monster Hunter people without making them feel like they're a noob or playing the game "wrong." Hell yeah.
Also watched it live. Best podcast episode so far from the ones i watched. Perhaps because it was 2 ppl my age talking good old times and loving a game i love. A good feeling-podcast. Im a Ruri-viewer though so ill let this ep run in the background to give my view to where it belongs in the first place.
I see me and Preach have the same cat experience. Even better is when you get stunned or paralyzed out of danger, the cat is keeping the monster busy. The cat rushes over to help. The cat stares you deep in the eyes while doing nothing as the monster careens toward you. The cat watches your hope leave your eyes. The cat keeps staring as you die.
@@ShivaX51 Honestly I forgot this was about monster hunter for a second. The entire time reading this I thought it was a bad sleep paralysis trip or something.
I've seen some streams where the hunter would be stunned, and the cat would rush to them, start playing the drum until the hunter inevitably gets incinerated by a fireball. Peak comedy
I think there's a mod for MHW that "fixes" cat AI partially. Author states in the description that cats are actually very capable and developers nerfed them by cranking certain values down. The author also states that he could change values to be the way they "should" be, so that the cat will actually do what you expect it to do, but he considers that cheating. Meaning, even his mod that fixes cats does not fix them completely.
Was a great podcast can't wait to see you both do it again once he finishes iceborne. Want to hear more about that TGN thing sounds like some fun stories haha!
your common history is such an anime twist we didn't know we needed that I cannot imagine ppl skipping it. was waiting for this collab for ages. happy to see you succeed at getting Preach to podcast and can't wait for part 2!
I started World (with no clutch) in November and never played a MH before. I mostly play PVP fps games and hadn't played a pve game in years. I'm really glad I didn't look up any tutorials and just played the game. Learning and exploring everything was really fun. Now I can't wait to play and learn Wilds with the community from day 1. 😁
Loved the podcast when i watched it live even if i had to stay up till 4 AM to watch it haha. Great one Rurikhan! Can't wait for Preach to have you back soon!
Caught this live yesterday, had to watch it again. This is a crossover I was waiting for. I knew it was about Monster Hunter but I am somewhat surprised FF14 wasn't touched on a bit more.
It's always a pleasure to hear Preach speak about games. Even at times where I disagree with him. He's always pretty reasonable in his opinions and you know exactly where he's coming from, even when you know he got something wrong, that was later revealed to him or something like that. Doesn't hurt that he's also pretty open to just fucking admit he got something wrong.
The whole Great Sword block thing was driving me crazy as a GS main. Thank you! lol Mike is talking crazy when it comes to shields. My other favorite weapons are Gunlance and Sword & Shield so his disdain for those is mindboggling. Enjoying his playthrough even with all the crazy things he brings up (calling mechanics "jank", ignoring things like dung, constantly assuming he was at endgame), so thank you for all this and obviously all the MH guides through the years that I definitely don't constantly come back to.
@@KyouOneZilla Seriously he assumes so much stuff lol. “Oh you just block lol.” Ya and you have to be careful with stamina, shield recoil, certain attacks that can’t be blocked, etc. It’s not as simple as he thinks. I’m pretty sure he thinks bowgun users can sit back 200ft away from the monster and do full damage for entire hunts.
@@Persona6Blue It’s because they haven’t played any other game like monhun before, so they don’t understand it or have anything to reference that’s similar. So they just call it jank. You see a lot of people saying the same thing when they play their first souls game. “I don’t get how this works. Must be jank.”
Great video! Love seeing how new hunters feel about the games. I was a new hunter a little over a year ago and now I have around 500 hours in World/Iceborne and around 300 in rise. I am equally excited about Wilds as I was about the Elden ring dlc. So funny that Preach didn’t catch the hint about using screamer pods against Diablos in game lol
Oh gosh, I remember my beginner, first ever MH play through in World. I basically jumped in on my own. I only had dial-up equivalent internet, living out in the country, so I only played single player. Got hard walled by Anja, Diablos, and Nergi (final fight). Each hunt took me 40-45 minutes without question. It was a hard clawed struggle looking back. I didn't use hardly any of the mechanics to my advantage, I barely even used the food buffs, because I would just forget. I had found a way to compensate by always running health boost on my armor, lol. On top of all of that, I chose the Hunting Horn as the weapon I liked most. I loved the move set, and I maintain the feeling of encore stun knockdowns is second to none. My original build was around Divine Blessing (for survival, lol), and Partbreaker (which I still love). Didn't even think about looking things up online until I timed out on Beotodus twice, like 2 months after Iceborne came out. By that time, I had DSL, and could play online a little bit, but yeah, it was a wild time, and it's a first play through I'll never forget.
the dream come true , watching it live was awsome the ralization you know eachother from long ago , hope you will make another one when Mike finishes the game and DLCs
@Rurikhan I just started Monster Hunter World last Friday and I've never played Mainline Monster Hunter before, I put on some catch up armor on one character and got to the point of defeating Anjanath (and then I found out it was catch up armor), so It made me question (am I really playing well? or is it the armor?) so I made another character and with that character I didn't use the catch up armor and I got to the same point of fighting Anjanath, I had a harder time and took me a few extra tries, but I am glad I did it, because it gave me a better understanding and I would rather play without the catch up armor, so that I can properly learn (the second character showed me that I didn't learn anything from my first fight with Anjanath), after that I watched some of your reactions to Asmongold, and I really enjoyed how you explained things, and gave tips as soon as I had the time I went back on Monster Hunter world and tried to follow the tips (still struggling to get the rock to land on Anjanath) but I've learned to do aerial combat and to use my dual blade to roll through the monster, which is super cool and fun. Thank you for the tips, would love to see more reaction/tips videos from you, I feel like it really helps us new players out. A bit of a side note here but my first Monster Hunter game was Monster Hunter Stories 2 which I really really love, both these games are making me really enjoy the world and looking forward to wilds!
Pretty bold and brave for you to abandon defender armor(the "catchup armor") and repeat the progress. Hope your journey to become a monster hunter won't stress you out too much because Wilds is coming out in about a month and when it does, everyone currently playing World will probably all move there and there might not be much players left to help you tackle through the really hard endgame monsters or the raid monsters(I could be wrong as well)
@@yaine49 I mean I only started last friday, and I restarted the same day, I am not really focused on completeling the game before Wilds comes out (Mainly because I don't have time with my current work situation), but playing it at a casual pace is ok fo rme, and I do have some friends that are either already playing Monster Hunter World or are starting soon, so if there's stuff I need teams for I can count on them when needed and vice versa. I'm liking the fact that Im not using the armor, because like I said previously, I noticed stuff about Anjanath that I didn't when I was just using the Defender Armor, like the way Anjanath behaves before it does certain actions where things I missed and ended up taking unnecessary damage on. So I am enjoying that more now then the first try. I will probably stress out a lot though at some point, but if I dont then, for me that means I dont care about the game to begin with.
Is there a more cat like behavior than not always doing everything as commanded to do? I think that is why the palico doesn't always listen. I felt the same way about dogs. I remember playing MHW and saying how cool it would be to ride a mount into battle and then Rise gave us a dog to do just that. I will miss those good boys. My favorite thing in all of monster hunter are the little details. At the end of iceborne there is a couple seconds during the cutscenes where Meowster Chef looks for approval from Grandma Chef and doesn't get it, he then looks sad. That was my favorite moment, it was Chef kiss level of detail
I'd seen Rurikhan around a bit and watched some of the MH videos about MH Wilds, but I was today years old when I learned he is Portuguese. Olá fellow compatriota! XD
I'm a new sub, I played old MH games and I played Mhw when it came out did everything way before Iceborne was even out and never touch the game again but I recently got back almost finish Iceborne and found your Chanel cuz i never been in any Monster Hunter community and is rly nice the work you do i rly love it keep it up! 🥰❤️🇵🇹😌. P.S: I don't mind this type of long vids is nice having something play on the background while I do other stuff and seeing a genuinely conversation and connection . ❤️✨☺️
One of best piece of Ruri's content so far, they got such a great chemistry together, both super cool guys. Hoping for some Wilds content with the Preach? But as a bow enjoyer, i hate shitting on my beloved weapon 🙂
this came up in the beginning and I agree, screw mixers unless you are doing production you need a cheap interface to power your mic and that is mostly it.
Finally monster hunter content without spoilers and boi oh boi was it fun to watch! He had me crying laughing with the new player experience and the bazel killsteal sounds almost like base world all over again...
Is it possible to get a video about returning monsters in wilds? Not the full list of all monsters ever, but just the classics or most memorable ones? Like Bazel, Diablos, Tigrex and so forth?
Crafting charms is one of my least favorite changes from older games where you got them from mining. I feel as strongly about it as Rurikhan does about restocking (which I also agree with him on).
when he was doing the ''Blind Blind'' playing with no chat, it was very funny every time he died chat was Spamming, even the official monster hunter account on twitch was wondering why he did not use the tent :P
Watched it during the stream, it was a great talk! Also, Mike's memory is really terrible XD He 100% knew about the tent before Barioth, I don't remember the exact quest he was doing when he learned but it was a quest in the Elder's Recess, and he did properly restock and eat after carting to Barioth in his 50 minutes try, he would NOT have made it all the way to the end of the timer if he didn't restock on potions and buffs, guaranteed. Not that this takes away from the opinion that you "lose something" when you learn you have essentially infinite healing and resources, but this just goes to show that even with that you can still have tension and excitement and struggle, because that's what happened to him in that hunt. This also proves how impactful that first Barioth experience was to him, he basically convinced himself that he must not have known about the tent at the time, because otherwise how could he have had such a huge struggle? But nah, it was just because Barioth is an actual wall to new players, and Mike's damage was complete crap (he knew about the tent, yes, but tenderizing and wall banging were lessons that came in the following day).
I have just started MHW about 90 hrs in. Loving the game but i do struggle with the item icons all looking the same and also i would like to be able to choose what to have on the item bar.
1:18:55 I'll say something about the reloading! Swag issue. He's yet to let the DEE-PEE-ASS into his heart and get funky with it. But I have faith he'll find his way.
I played bow before and tbh it's way harder than any melee weapon. You no cap get 1-2 shot shotted by almost anything in the late game and bows attack range is pretty short. You're always in range of a monster attack. So I think of it almost like a melee weapon. Meanwhile when I play anything melee I can tank like 4-8 hits it really makes the fight much easier. Yeah clear speed is better for bow but you need to play near perfect or you're dead. So I have respect for bow mains
@roddy864 This is all very true. People think the bow is easy because they see clips of people dunking the monsters way faster than any other weapon, but they don't realize what it takes to get to that point. For most of the end game content, you basically can't get hit, ever. And yes, you do need to stay in melee range if you want to do the most damage. Then you have to factor in specific hit zones, and if you can't consistently hit the moster in the correct hit zone, your dps falls off a cliff. I think all the weapons are great, just gotta defend any fellow bow mains on this one 😆
When you guys find out that your base defensiveness with melee weapons and bow is essentially the exact same it's going to blow your mind. Imagine playing for this long and thinking you are more squishy with the bow than melee lol. Melee Weapon Type will give you reduced physical damage, Ranged Weapon type will give you reduced elemental damage. - But these modifiers are very low. 70% compared to 100% phys damage reduction. Most DEFINITELY not enough to take 4-8 hits compared to 1-2. You might - MIGHT - be able to take one more hit. Likely not even that much, depending on hp/armor values. And the flip side is you're taking more elemental damage. If you are able to take more hits when you play melee, it's because you're either putting on armor that is more tanky, or you're putting in decorations that make you more tanky, and then not doing that when you play with the bow. Which is a CHOICE by the way. Melee HAS to do that. They don't even get the choice.
The worst part is the monster staggering randomly to give you clutch claw opportunity breaking the flow of your combo because the monster jumps back 1km when he claggers. Every single monster does it.
I'm a MASSIVE mmo guy. I have a hard time playing single player games because I just like the idea I'm part of a bigger community. Monster Hunter is somehow an amazing bridge between a more traditional game that would normally be single player, and an MMO. I find it really interesting to see what types of people bounce off monster hunter and players where it just clicks.
For what it’s worth, I say you don’t need to restock because I am a World newbie, and I went through all of World and Iceborne storylines without needing to restock, never running low on supplies (because you can bring combine reserves) and never running up against the clock, though I also haven’t done Alateron or Fatalis yet (waiting on some people for that). I do think it’s a rubber band mechanic the devs use to push the envelope harder in the Master Rank version, but they still didn’t really push it that hard.
2:13:10, after seeing this conversation I am worried that I do not know how to tell when a monster is almost toast if he isn’t limping of has the animated skull on the map.
In the case of preach, I think he doesn’t have enough monster points to know when the skull is up, but there’s also the heart monitor which most of us ignore.
oh yeah, isnt it when monster drop the "3rd" ammo, it means it reached the threshold of being captured, without limping or showing the skull on mini map. what I know is once it dropped the 3rd time ammo, its getting low and will limp any second and leave to sleep soon, since I dont do much capturing.
14:31 Wow, I am so socially anxious that I barely did party content in WoW. Istarted playing right at the launch of Shadowlands. leveled 1 to 60 solo and then I did like 2 timewarp dungeons? Cant remember , but i felt so shitty cuz I didnt know what to do or how to pull properly as a tank. Same thing happened to me playing Elder Scrolls online. I messed up a few jumps holding back tye party and I just logged off and never did party content again after that. My fear and anxiety is wasting other peoples time. its not what will happen to me, its what im making everyone else go through.
excuse me, running away from the attack is courageous now and facing it head on is cowardly? what a godless fool, shall never know the greatness of the lance or the gunlance the lances are the real weapons for the gigachads
False. The real Gigachad is timing your greatsword to smack down diving monsters out of the air, and face tanking meteors and fireballs by tackling into them.
I think because I grew up on WoW starting from Vanilla, even if I was playing a class I wasn't particularly good at, or making mistakes in dungeons etc, it didnt bother me if people were being jerks to me, I knew I was making mistakes because I was learning, and if I got kicked it was like whatever, que for the next and keep going. I find most groups don't even say anything at all to begin with.
I litterally hunted base game nirgigante no dlc for his plate or gem cant remember which but I hunted him 97 times until i got my first shinny carve and then my 107th kill i got a reward of 2 to get his armor set back then it was sooooooo frustrating
10:50 i have the exact same problem that preach is describing lol . People both complain about me being too quiet AND too loud ( when i get passionate about a subject or an argument)
Rurikhan WHen Preach beats MHW Iceborne you gotta invite him back but You MUST tell him about SOUL SACRIFICE turn him into a fan! He probably one of the few that will adore the game!
at the design philosophy of restocking items at Camp, I get what he means by I lost something. I intentionally dont restock at camp even if Iknow I can . I hate that feature
Preach: “Ranged weapons are for the weak willed.” Also Preach: “Real men dodge attacks and don’t block attacks head on.” Ya sure mate keep yourself tidy dodging everything while the chads are busy deep in the trenches counter attacking, shoulder tackling, and guard pointing through everything. Don’t forget your evade extender. (This is mostly joking, inb4 someone takes this comment too seriously lol.)
Nope, they were both in the base game, and Mike has the base Iceproof one which is why he got the quest to upgrade it, he's just blind and has really bad memory. For Iceproof you get it from a delivery of HR Paolumu mats, and Dragonproof requires doing the Deviljho quest that you get after he appears for the first time (which means that it wasn't in the release version of the base game, but it was still added in a content update of the base game before Iceborne).
Would love to be on the podcast sometime fellow veteran hunter since gen1 and also teach people how to master their weapons and I help new players get into the franchise as well and answer questions!
Ive been told the same thing about divine blessing on my sns build 😂😂😂 i run 4 piece velkana and 2 piece raging brachy (vel secret on safi wep) Lvl 3 divine blessing come baked into the gear people are fools 😂😂 DB is just like vitality an defense stat that doubles an and offensive one because it allows for more uptime through the hunt
WoW was the game that got me hooked online play &. playing Samrai Warriors on A ps2 i didnt have the best Game counsels i had A PC. played WoW always. blizzard did me dirty
This is so silly but I bought MHFU for the psp as a teenager because in my brain monster hunter = monster rancher and I was so disappointed until I picked it back up like 6 months later and got obsessed.
Watched this when they recorded it live. It was such a fun conversation and I'm already waiting for part 2.

Preach not knowing about certain things is actually pretty entertaining. Gonna have to go and watch his videos/streams of this now.
Yeeees, I've been loving Preach's blind series!
Love you guys. Watched Mike cuz I found him when I started Legion. Man’s a wholesome family man.
Always good to see new players enjoy my favourite franchise
Can't imagine people skipping the first 40 minutes. Such a great conversation.

Imagine seeing a Tigrex charge at you and not thinking, "go ahead, try to move me." Weak.
Fun interview, it's been interesting to watch his daily updates as someone who came to MHW mostly blind at launch and started with Swagaxe
Was on a long trip today and hearing that podcast was a blast . Thanks mike @preachgaming your candor regarding monster hunter was so refreshing
Man,hearing Ruri ans Mike talk about TNG is such a wild experience and a blast from the past lol.

Greatsword is the flagship weapon of the series and it makes the biggest numbers. This is why I have mained it since the first game.
My first love, but I haven't used it (in any meaningful way) for a few generations now.
I wish I could like the greatsword because it looks so badass, but I'm just too impatient. 😂
I laughed so hard I started crying. "Chat wants you to look around your camp" lol

I agree with you on restock and such.
Man ive been watching preach for sooooo many years lol. Watching the monster hunter content was a great time
Ruri taught me Charge Blade 🔪& I have been a fan ever since.🙏🏽🐲
fellow cb main ✊
Finally monster hunter content without spoilers and boi oh boi was it fun to watch! He had me crying laughing with the new player experience and the bazel killsteal sounds almost like base world all over again...
Is it possible to get a video about returning monsters in wilds? Not the full list of all monsters ever, but just the classics or most memorable ones? Like Bazel, Diablos, Tigrex and so forth?
I love he's energy on the podcast
I love your chemistry! Such a fun video!
Don't believe him he never did extremoth he's confused with the normal version!
Chat went wild when he said he did haha.
Crafting charms is one of my least favorite changes from older games where you got them from mining. I feel as strongly about it as Rurikhan does about restocking (which I also agree with him on).
Great episode gentlemen!
A podcast between my favourite streamer and my favourite MH creator? My birthday came early this year!
when he was doing the ''Blind Blind'' playing with no chat, it was very funny every time he died chat was Spamming, even the official monster hunter account on twitch was wondering why he did not use the tent :P
Damn, hearing the name Hengest takes me back. Hope he's doing good.
Watched it during the stream, it was a great talk!
Also, Mike's memory is really terrible XD He 100% knew about the tent before Barioth, I don't remember the exact quest he was doing when he learned but it was a quest in the Elder's Recess, and he did properly restock and eat after carting to Barioth in his 50 minutes try, he would NOT have made it all the way to the end of the timer if he didn't restock on potions and buffs, guaranteed.
Not that this takes away from the opinion that you "lose something" when you learn you have essentially infinite healing and resources, but this just goes to show that even with that you can still have tension and excitement and struggle, because that's what happened to him in that hunt.
This also proves how impactful that first Barioth experience was to him, he basically convinced himself that he must not have known about the tent at the time, because otherwise how could he have had such a huge struggle? But nah, it was just because Barioth is an actual wall to new players, and Mike's damage was complete crap (he knew about the tent, yes, but tenderizing and wall banging were lessons that came in the following day).
I have just started MHW about 90 hrs in. Loving the game but i do struggle with the item icons all looking the same and also i would like to be able to choose what to have on the item bar.
Put everything you want on the radial menus, and you'll never have to use the bar ever again.
1:18:55 I'll say something about the reloading! Swag issue. He's yet to let the DEE-PEE-ASS into his heart and get funky with it. But I have faith he'll find his way.
I played bow before and tbh it's way harder than any melee weapon. You no cap get 1-2 shot shotted by almost anything in the late game and bows attack range is pretty short. You're always in range of a monster attack. So I think of it almost like a melee weapon. Meanwhile when I play anything melee I can tank like 4-8 hits it really makes the fight much easier. Yeah clear speed is better for bow but you need to play near perfect or you're dead. So I have respect for bow mains
@roddy864 This is all very true. People think the bow is easy because they see clips of people dunking the monsters way faster than any other weapon, but they don't realize what it takes to get to that point. For most of the end game content, you basically can't get hit, ever. And yes, you do need to stay in melee range if you want to do the most damage. Then you have to factor in specific hit zones, and if you can't consistently hit the moster in the correct hit zone, your dps falls off a cliff. I think all the weapons are great, just gotta defend any fellow bow mains on this one 😆
When you guys find out that your base defensiveness with melee weapons and bow is essentially the exact same it's going to blow your mind. Imagine playing for this long and thinking you are more squishy with the bow than melee lol.
Melee Weapon Type will give you reduced physical damage, Ranged Weapon type will give you reduced elemental damage. - But these modifiers are very low. 70% compared to 100% phys damage reduction. Most DEFINITELY not enough to take 4-8 hits compared to 1-2. You might - MIGHT - be able to take one more hit. Likely not even that much, depending on hp/armor values. And the flip side is you're taking more elemental damage.
If you are able to take more hits when you play melee, it's because you're either putting on armor that is more tanky, or you're putting in decorations that make you more tanky, and then not doing that when you play with the bow. Which is a CHOICE by the way. Melee HAS to do that. They don't even get the choice.
I totally hated the clutch claw. I was so excited to see that it didn't come back in wilds.
The worst part is the monster staggering randomly to give you clutch claw opportunity breaking the flow of your combo because the monster jumps back 1km when he claggers. Every single monster does it.
His favorite game is bloodborne and is a switch axe main, that makes perfect sense honestly.
As someone who adores Bloodborne, and started the series with World as a SwAxe main, I was thinking the same thing.
I'm a MASSIVE mmo guy. I have a hard time playing single player games because I just like the idea I'm part of a bigger community. Monster Hunter is somehow an amazing bridge between a more traditional game that would normally be single player, and an MMO.
I find it really interesting to see what types of people bounce off monster hunter and players where it just clicks.
For what it’s worth, I say you don’t need to restock because I am a World newbie, and I went through all of World and Iceborne storylines without needing to restock, never running low on supplies (because you can bring combine reserves) and never running up against the clock, though I also haven’t done Alateron or Fatalis yet (waiting on some people for that). I do think it’s a rubber band mechanic the devs use to push the envelope harder in the Master Rank version, but they still didn’t really push it that hard.
2:13:10, after seeing this conversation I am worried that I do not know how to tell when a monster is almost toast if he isn’t limping of has the animated skull on the map.
Is it not the drool and the visible breath?
@ that’s what I thought too but was just not sure. It doesn’t seem like it per how Rurikhan talks about it.
In the case of preach, I think he doesn’t have enough monster points to know when the skull is up, but there’s also the heart monitor which most of us ignore.
Heart monitor? Wait, what??
@@Rokumasu853 Blinking red border or minimap? Or is that engrage indicator?
oh yeah, isnt it when monster drop the "3rd" ammo, it means it reached the threshold of being captured, without limping or showing the skull on mini map. what I know is once it dropped the 3rd time ammo, its getting low and will limp any second and leave to sleep soon, since I dont do much capturing.
1st/2nd/3rd slinger pods drop at 30%/20%/10% health remaining so a monster is capturable before the 2nd drop (25% hp to be precise)
Damn the two legends that ruined my life and got me into WoW
I have 1772 hours in monster hunter world/iceborne and still don't know how to use slingerburst mid attack
This is why I never had any issues with the clutch claw's weakening mechanic: Because you are gonna clutch claw the monster anyway.
Ilove preaches voice, dont change bro
14:31 Wow, I am so socially anxious that I barely did party content in WoW. Istarted playing right at the launch of Shadowlands. leveled 1 to 60 solo and then I did like 2 timewarp dungeons? Cant remember , but i felt so shitty cuz I didnt know what to do or how to pull properly as a tank. Same thing happened to me playing Elder Scrolls online. I messed up a few jumps holding back tye party and I just logged off and never did party content again after that. My fear and anxiety is wasting other peoples time. its not what will happen to me, its what im making everyone else go through.
Its gonna be hilarious when we go over the basics with Preach after he is done with the game.
excuse me, running away from the attack is courageous now and facing it head on is cowardly? what a godless fool, shall never know the greatness of the lance or the gunlance
the lances are the real weapons for the gigachads
False. The real Gigachad is timing your greatsword to smack down diving monsters out of the air, and face tanking meteors and fireballs by tackling into them.
@agunsson thats the terachad
I think because I grew up on WoW starting from Vanilla, even if I was playing a class I wasn't particularly good at, or making mistakes in dungeons etc, it didnt bother me if people were being jerks to me, I knew I was making mistakes because I was learning, and if I got kicked it was like whatever, que for the next and keep going. I find most groups don't even say anything at all to begin with.
I litterally hunted base game nirgigante no dlc for his plate or gem cant remember which but I hunted him 97 times until i got my first shinny carve and then my 107th kill i got a reward of 2 to get his armor set back then it was sooooooo frustrating
@Rurikhan I think I may have been that aerial IG player in your lobby at some point for the extreme behemoth.
10:50 i have the exact same problem that preach is describing lol . People both complain about me being too quiet AND too loud ( when i get passionate about a subject or an argument)
Lance fl!❤
The willpower to not spill the details about the Palamute was priceless.
Chat asked.
shield users are far deeper in the trenches. one day he will appreciate that one shield user. one faithful fatalis cone
I don’t think mike realises that most MH fights are between 15-20 minutes
Rurikhan WHen Preach beats MHW Iceborne you gotta invite him back but You MUST tell him about SOUL SACRIFICE turn him into a fan! He probably one of the few that will adore the game!
Preach is simply THE BEST (and sometimes worst in the best possible ways)
Just 2 chill dudes
at the design philosophy of restocking items at Camp, I get what he means by I lost something. I intentionally dont restock at camp even if Iknow I can . I hate that feature
I wish world will come to switch 2 instead of wild but a 4u remaster or just even an up res is the dream.
Preach: “Ranged weapons are for the weak willed.”
Also Preach: “Real men dodge attacks and don’t block attacks head on.”
Ya sure mate keep yourself tidy dodging everything while the chads are busy deep in the trenches counter attacking, shoulder tackling, and guard pointing through everything.
Don’t forget your evade extender.
(This is mostly joking, inb4 someone takes this comment too seriously lol.)
Ice proof and dragon proof mantles were not in base game. They are both given to you +.
Nope, they were both in the base game, and Mike has the base Iceproof one which is why he got the quest to upgrade it, he's just blind and has really bad memory.
For Iceproof you get it from a delivery of HR Paolumu mats, and Dragonproof requires doing the Deviljho quest that you get after he appears for the first time (which means that it wasn't in the release version of the base game, but it was still added in a content update of the base game before Iceborne).
Would love to be on the podcast sometime fellow veteran hunter since gen1 and also teach people how to master their weapons and I help new players get into the franchise as well and answer questions!
WoW stories Love o listen nrvervwill play it Again stoty of Leeroy Jenkins best story on WoW dungeon disaster

Bow is god
WoW was the game that got me hooked online play &. playing Samrai Warriors on A ps2 i didnt have the best Game counsels i had A PC. played WoW always. blizzard did me dirty
