I'll be editing this comment to add timestamps for possible fun clips (since imagine it'll be a long video). Will make it easier I think if anyone does want to react to it ;) heh
Finally editing, here are various time stamps. Broke it up between general advice for anyone and then Asmon specific stuff. Let me know if I should improve them in any way or missed anything fun.
General Advice For Anyone:
2:41 Tip to watch environment, rock trap specifically here.
5:48 Explanations of number color types and where to hit monsters (even if white damage)
8:30 Talking about sharpness and it not being a big deal (MR matters more, but not that big in LR, matters most about bouncing).
13:28 Scout Fly suggestion
14:42 tired monsters.
18:45 Mount advice, Map aspects, Breaking Specific parts for loot (finish on the part you want to break).
23:32 Slapping with great sword and some advice
25:30 Jump attack advice with great sword
29:12 some advantages for Ancient Forest Area 5
30:00 More mounting advice to not get knocked off for an Anji attack
31:22 Talking about "always be charging" with Great Sword
33:00 Super man dive advice (so many invincibility frames)

54:56 Advice about another area with mushrooms on the side and specific weapons like Sword and Shield, Gunlance, Chargeblade, Bow, etc.
57:06 Comments about limping monsters, letting them get back to go to sleep before capture or a big hit
Asmon Specific:
8:01 Asmon good natural dodging instincts
9:51 Understanding about weapon and praising Asmon understanding to sheath weapon often.
10:58 First death, even Rui didn't notice charged Anji.
15:19 Thoughts on risking for True Charge Slash there.
17:03 Mounting Anji
24:40 Second Death
26:50 Rui thinking how Anji acts different for him and Asmon.
27:52 Third death, praises Asmon for getting right back into it
32:29 Shoulder tackle praises
34:00 Rui shocked at the crack this Anji is on.
37:56 Rui noting it'll be a long hunt and why as well as the worry of being a streamer while playing
39:35 Poisoned cause of the plant right after antidote
43:00 Rui wonders how chat knows Anji's health
43:42 Doesn't understand i-frames, Rui "pretend they don't exist as a new player."
44:18 Praises Asmon's really good situational awareness
47:11 - 49:35 First Death to Anji #2, DOING IT FOR THE GLORY! Be greedy and take chances!
50:51 - 52:04 Fuck the chat, be greedy, AND THE TAIL CHOP! Needed to charge weapon more.
53:15 - 53:50 Anji scared of Asmon! "No I don't wanna die!"
54:01 - 54:50 Rui still amazed at strange Anji behavior (could be part of last, but kinda it's own thing)
58:40 - 1:02:52 FULL SEND CHARGE ATTACK and ROARS! The end of the fight. Rui analysis
As for another fight I think fun to watch/react, Rui:
Nergigante was a great fight to watch.
The Kushala Daora was a fight worth watching imo, but it will be another LONG video
Teostra was pretty fun too, Asmon iirc likes the Teostra fight.
If you want shorter stuff, I linked in discord the timestamps for first meeting of B52 Bomber buddy and the Angry Pickle :D
I have personally been really enjoying Asmon's play through with every fight. Been great. He's doing a great job for a new player.
your service is appreciated! And yes, it's a 1h video. I'll pin your comment.
I like you're actually adding value to the reaction by commentating and sharing tips and info about mechanics for the newer players man. Making a reaction video with just a bunch of "OMG!", "holy crap!", "holy shit!" spread throughout would be easy, but you go out of your way to make it informative and useful too (and of course, don't get me wrong, your reactions are also entertaining as hell).
Keep it up Ruri, loving all the recent MHW content and thanks to your streams i also joined the Return to World event, i forgot how incredible base World felt like without Iceborne mechanics and i'm enjoying the hell out of it.
I think this is what reaction video should be. Adding comment, gives opinion, sharing info, some tips and tricks so the reaction video turn into an entertaining and informative. I know it's hard to do but once it's out. It's a quality contents.
Agreed. I hate those kinds of videos that title themselves "MH veteran reacts" and they do nothing but stare blankly at the screen the whole hunt and occasionally say something obvious or useless. They don't add anything to the gameplay despite labeling themselves as veterans.
He’s in Iceborne now and is still not tackling, god bless his soul. It’s actually impressive.
At least he has expressed interest on how to tackle.
He has actually been trying to do it but it's not a muscle memory thing. You gotta actively choose to do it. He said he planned to practice it off stream
im pretty much keepin pace with him also playing gs exactly where he's rn, i also almost never tackle, i try it when the boss is easy to at least start learning how to do it, but i find it bad, idk where all this hype about tackle comes from, you still get damaged a bit, monster usually turns out on the opposite side of you so follow up attack doesnt even connect AND if you misstime it even slightly you will get severely punished, why risk that, just dodge and wait for an opening imo, or block, i found gs block to be very effective btw
As someone whose favorite Greatsword is 4U's, I respect his decision not to tackle. That being said, if he wants to keep using TCS, he should really figure out the tackle soon
It's intentional. When his chat constantly spams him with "backseat advice," he often ignores them intentionally. Which is turn makes them spam even more - it's actually quite intelligent as it forced engagement.
"You can't run around with your weapon unsheathed the entire time."
*Insect Glaive users cackle maniacally and jump across half the map.*
And Lance Choo Choo train laughs hysterical as they charge faster than you can run sheathed
Sheathing IG is actually decent because the draw attack has a shortcut into Tornado Slash which is your highest damage lowest commitment ratio option in your entire kit if have red extract. Not the biggest issue compared to other weapons because white extract gives you non sprint movement speed while your weapon is out but having access to the superman dive is good to have if you're still learning a monster's pattern.
@@Evan-mt7bc I was mostly just making a joke, I sheathe even with the IG at times when needed. But a lot of weapons that have to sheath to quickly get to the monster IG can just quickly jump over to and downward thrust.
@@Tazkar Yea I knew you'd be good at it because the only people who talk about IG play IG but I was moreso expanding for anyone who doesn't play IG because bug jokes don't make sense to people who aren't buggy buddies
Rolf
To expand on the Anjanath tips: Not only does breaking the Anjanath’s legs get you a topple, the legs also become soft spots which then makes subsequent topples easier to cause. When the Anjanath is charged up and ready to breathe fire, dealing damage to the head will cause what I like to call a “cinematic topple” where the camera pulls back.
Absolutely. After playing primarily SnS, I had to learn this fact about his legs very quickly to have a hope of chopping the tails. His legs aren't great hitzones to start but they are definitely one of, if not the, best places to hit while he's standing upright for this reason.
If you look closely you can see there are actually two boulder traps in the cutscene. It was always a nice attention to detail imo.
Was amazed how fast He finished the base game without using deffender gear do.
Yeah it doesn't take too long if u just gogogo instead of doing sides and farming.
Damn Anjanath, i was hoping you would react to a mid-late game monster since he's already in iceborne. His Lunastra + Teostra, Barioth fights were glorious.
Yeah, i think the Nergigante fight is also a very good one to see his progress since the first reaction video
Not to mention the one moment where Rurikhan will without doubt lose his crap. XD @@MarceloKuchiki
@everyone, please don't spoil it.
Fr
You can request him for others, his discord has a section if you wanna submit a video and request, but doesn't guarantee anything.
I mean, if these videos keep performing well i'm sure Rurikhan will eventually make it to more current hunts
A flashy move for the kill is the best feeling, I strive to finish every monster that way. You're right it is for the glory
For the mountings, the game tells you if you have to brace, move or when you are free to attack. It tells you on the upper right where the controls are displayed. The buttons are glowing to tell you what you have to do
The display tells you what actions are available in your current state, but it doesn't tell you what you _should_ do. Except for one monster attack, changing position is always the best option and allows you to keep stabbing, allowing you to down the monster much more quickly.
During a mount, you can change position to avoid every attack but the one that Rurikhan mentioned. That attack is only performed by brute wyverns. They'll step back and take a huge jump. It will hit every mount zone on the monster so you have to brace it. Every other attack can be avoided much more quickly by changing position. Additionally, some attacks that the monster does while you're mounted will knock you off (without reaching zero stamina) where your hunter will automatically grapple back on and bracing will not prevent getting knocked off, but changing position will avoid the attack and you won't be knocked off.
@tarrickmerdev2324 No OP is right though it might have to have some like in game tips function turned on, and is maybe just usually on by default. But yes when youe mount a monster the button prompts in the top right change to show what ypu can do while mounting. And yes the defensive options to either brace or move will have a glowing box around the move you need to do to avoid being knocked off by the monster's attempt to shake you off.
@@jacobkrakowski His comment stated that the game tells you which between those you HAVE to do, that is not true because there is never one move that you HAVE to do except for that one particular attack that I mentioned. The display that you're talking about shows you what you CAN do, but you have multiple options. It does not, and cannot, tell you what you SHOULD do, only what your options are: stab, brace, or move position.
One thing that makes Anjanath hard for beginners I think is the fact that when you make it fall down by hitting the legs or also (if you have IB) after a wallbang he gets up way quicker than every other monster. You don't even get a real opening.
The only “hard” part about the boss is that he can 1 shot you. Outside of that its piss easy.
Yeah even fulgur anjanath gets up in half the time other monsters do it catches you off guard. Not only does he not give a lot of openings when you don't know him well but when you finally do get openings he doesn't give them for long
He's in master rank now. Still doesn't tackle. Hasn't learned how to cook steak yet, either.
I think he just doesn't like learning that stuff on stream. He came into the stream trying to learn how to tackle, and with most side quests completed yesterday
I only learned how to cook steak properly two MH games after my first one which was MHFU. XD
@@TNTspaz He's very open with the problems he has learning new things. Big sword/evasion is pretty much his go to style for action games. He's very good at it :)
@@waltlock8805 Yup I understand that. As someone who recently played through all the old school MH games. I can verify its effectiveness lol
Dude is in Iceborne now. Somehow, even now, he still doesn't play the Greatsword to it's fullest potential but props to him for just unga-bungaing through the game.
In this game you can't get through the end game with just unga bunga, he has very good natural instincts but bad at learning new stuffs/overly complicated mechanics, it's really impressive he can get this far
@@VSN-wb2ly Well, he basically did.
@@Lu-qlhe's definitely struggling with that kind of play style in his alatreon and fatalis fight.
but still, it's impressive how he has gone this far
Anjanath is also particularly hard for greatsword - It's a very tall monster and even to though you got this huge sword it can be a struggle to reach the head and tail. Anjanath also gets up very quickly after being toppled making it hard to hit a full TCS combo.
You can ofcourse adapt by focusing the main body instead of the tail/head and doing quick TCS combos rather than full charging all hits but it takes a few tries to learn this. To be clear, by doing a quick TCS combo I don't mean undercharging the final hit, you either undercharge to first two parts or do a tackle to skip one attack, the final part is the big hit and should always be perfectly charged (unless you realize that you've misscalculated your opening window and need to release it early to get the hit)
The shord topple duration still messes me up every now and again as Anjanath is one of the quickest to rise monsters in the entire game.
Finally for the record, I died to that breath attack multiple times and it took me several tries before I was able to beat Anjanath. It really is a hard fight when you're new to Monster hunter.
Nah, great sword is very good against anjanath.
SnS having more a bad time against Anjanath because you can only hit the feet most of the time with occasionally the head. ( at least for new player)
Anja can be bad for every weapons
@@nasi_lemak7pagiYeah as an sns main fuck me are big guys like anjanath, behemoth, xeno ect miserable. You're just glued to their feet because your range is so bad. I will say anjanath does feel a bit better when you're used to him a bit cuz he has a good amount of attacks where he keeps his head low enough to reach.
Ruri, these videos in particular have really got me interested in MH.
Common misconception. The red eye on the minimap does not actually show if the monster is enraged. It just shows if it will follow you to other areas, which is 99.9% of the time due to it being enraged.
The actual thing that shows if a monster is enraged is the heartbeat line below the monster icon to the right of the minimap.
While the hammer can knock off barroth's scalp. (as well as other blunt attacks like GS tackle, hunting horn hits and exhaust vials), barroth's head still isn't a great spot for dealing damage. You'd rather hit the forelimbs for that.
If you get thrown off during a mount, the button to resume is none. There is no button, it just happens automatically if you have enough stamina.
He is making fast progress. It's the first game he has played back to back to back this much in a while. Normally he either alternates or itll only last a few streams even if he likes it
Like Remanant 2 he really liked but played the majority of the game off stream
Edit: Beat up to Brachy today as well and talked about farming him off stream.
And he is farming off stream
where does he have time to grind, he likes streams all day, thats not even healthy
I mean. Right now he pretty much has a normal work schedule like anyone else. He probably wakes up around noon. Streams from 3 or 4 - 8 or 9. Sometimes earlier, sometimes later. Then probably plays games for the few hours after the stream. Like he said today. It's easier to concentrate on the game when he doesn't need to look at chat. It's not that crazy and unless he gets up at like 6 or 8 which I doubt. He probably gets a normal 8 hours like anyone else@@XENON3120
@@XENON3120he wipes the blood from his gums on his wall and doesn’t clean it, I don’t think he gives a shit about being healthy
@@Chaoticsaur good point, well yeah its his life but he had a discussion with doctor K and was thinking he had it for the better, no parent wanna see their child stuck like this. I mean dude is making money making things he enjoys, tthats awesome, but i think this level is just dangerous, it ate so many good youtubers before
As an insect Glaive main, I low key didn’t have to deal with a good amount of Anja’s move set. I dead ass just jumped the Flamethrower cone of death
Insect glaive really makes some fights a breeze. Until you get to diablos with a hitbox the height of a skyscraper and get repeatedly dropped from the air
Proud to see Anjanath still giving people trouble
I'm just starting MHW and really appreciate these educational tidbits you drop in your reactions. I started watching for entertainment but I'm learning more about combat mechs from this than most guides!
The more everyone tells him to tackle, the less likely it’ll be that he plays. Ffxiv community did this to him as well, and he just quit. So.
almost a thousand hours of gameplay later and I am still learning something new about this game. amazing
54:38 wrong, that’s Tobi Kadachi’s nest.
58:17 correction. Monsters USED TO do that, before ICB. After ICB they will not go to sleep if you’re barge into the nest area.
54:25 "Rathalos nest"
That's Tobi Kadachi's nest, not Rathalos
I'm a late starter in the series. I picked it up from rise. First I didn't liked it in the beginning. I rembered in my first hunt, I celebrated that I found honey, didn't know what to do with it I thought it was a rare item.
I put the game away and I tried monster hunter stories 2. That explained me a lot of the weakspot and the hitboxes of the monsters. I also learned to apreciate the monsters. Picked rise up again and started slaying through sunbreak ever since.
My brother who is a game maker was always talking about he liked to play world alot. When I saw the preview of wild I went nuts, I bought world and Iceborne to get me prepared for wilds.
Your video's are the best. I like the way you can explain the iceberg of MH. Every time I get suprised how deep everything in this game is made. Thanks to show me more depts of world. The way you bring it with humor is the best.
Like the part in this video:
"This monster is stupid.. 2min later . One hit card😂😂😂. Been there done that. The way you keep people motivating people to play is the best.
Like the 3th fleed podcast especialy the episodes with Gaijin Hunter. 👏👏👏🐱
Greetings from Aruba🇦🇼🌴
This video is very helpful for Monster Hunter beginners
I got a suggestion: You should look at his first expedition in the Coral Highlands he does in High Rank where he first encounters our beloved B52 Bomber Pinecone (4th video)
Also his hunt of the FFXIV crossover Kulu was hilarious (7th video)
I love the energy you bring to these it’s very fun to watch
Love the content and i am looking forward to next year when sht's about go down
Someone else probably already mentioned it, but around the 43min marker, you said the chat can't know anjanath is already ready for capture, but they can make educated guessed depending on the slinger ammo the monster drops
Cap thresholds usually range from 25 to 15% HP and monsters drop slinger ammo at 30, 20 and 10%
Great analysis, and positive and providing so much for people to learn. Anyone saying Asmongold should be shoulder tackling more is not remembering their own first 50-60 hours of playing Great Sword where they did a grand total of 0 shoulder tackles. This game has LAYERS bro, it'll come. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised to see Asmongold doing correct combos using the Sideways Slash and the Slap, which once you get top tier GS playing, you know to keep steady, small DPS going, and then create your windows for TCS. Playing ALL TCS ALL the TIME is actually way less DPS, but it's satisfying as all hell.
Love the commentary!!!! I’m hope that Asmon keep playing to get to the end game.
You GOTTA see his first Barioth hunt. Actually insane
Chat could see when it’s below 30% from the monster tracker pulse beside the mini map it shows when they are below 60% 30% and when enraged.
Tbh. It's a fruitful endeavor getting that to happen and it's also a lesser known mechanic. I know lots of people who farmed up to Fatalis that don't know that is a thing.
Gs is easily the best weapon in the game maybe one of the hardest if not the hardest but the ability to learn the monsters with gs is unmatched it is the epitome of mastering the basics and efficiency. But charge blade go boom
u shld watch his barioth fight, The Chad Asmon beat it in first try lmao
also Rurikhan about the Anjanath Cinder Attack thingy, i think it might have something to do with differences of Hunter Ranks Moveset, like as u shld know LR/HR/MR all monster from differents Ranks Tier have added and extra moveset, especially on Master Rank. for example like odogaron Tail whip instead of just recovering after the Whip he will launch 1 more times to charge scratch at you. same might be the case here with the Anjanath.
13:28 in this case you just have to look that the map and there is a green dot that shows the "head" of the flies
The insect Glaive can theoretically break Barroth’s head assuming you have a blunt Glaive, blunt insect, or explosive powder on your kinsect.
Started all over again yesterday on PC after not playing for years. Feels so good to be a newbie again.
A tip: All capturable monsters naturally drops a slinger pod while you damaging them in spesific health tresholds which is total 3. When they drop the 3th ammo it is the sign that you can capture them which is around 30% of health (Do not mis understand me i am not counting the slinger ammo that drops after you do the clutch attacks.)
+ capturing monsters is a better way to finish a quest it gives extra one more monster material than carves + bonus research points and 30% less hit points to finish...
Unless of course the quest is to *slay* the monster, then it results in 0 rewards
@@Florjb0rjTheFloorboard Every monster (apart from dragons and Raging Brachidios) is capturable. There is not any single game rule that says you must slay instead of capture to get rewards. Capture, every time yields 1 more items than carve. So you always have an option to capture and game rewards you for that. But the opposite is true. there are quests where you need to capture a specific monster and you fail the quest if you slay it.
I watched you before I played Vermintide 2 and learned what an "Ironbreaker" is. Shields up? Shield's up.
i've watched asmon streaming mhw multiple time now, its very enjoyable seeing him dive into MH series although whenever i saw chat backseating him way too hard its so annoying. like a few tips is fine, but asking him what to do every second he move is way too much. im glad that Ruri address it tho.
He's struggling against Velkhana and Seething now and last night said if the bosses get harder he's considering quitting because its too hard for him.
I was expecting you to Jaws it up and Say hit him in "The Head, The Tail, the whole damn thing". 🤣
12:05 Nostalgia moment. Everyone dies to anjy firebreath finisher at one point
20:55 important tip for mounting
i think legit every question i have asked myself in game while dying you just answered in detail in this reaction video thats so crazy
His amount of successful first try hunts is actually amazing
dark souls made me able to play MHW more easily simply because the dodge and stamina maintenance is something already familiar with.
Any blunt damage can break barroth's head, i can confirm i've done it with sword and shield. Although it took an incredible amount of time
@20:50Brute wyverns are the ones that do this attacks, anything brute wyvern get ready for it
and that is not rath nest, rath nest is at the dam near camp 17, i think that is kadashi's nest?? but it is where rathalos and Anja fight in the original trailer
IIRC Superman dive is anytime in a fight with weapon sheathed and sprinting, the key being sprinting. I don't remember direction mattering.
I think that nest it goes to is the lesser monster one like Tobi/Anja, the Rath nest is the one at the very top of the map with the waterfall trap
Shooting pods on ground to distract unengaged monsters is such a top level cheese tbh. You can just run under them and keep shooting pods and it triggers their search animation over and over, so you're free to run up and clutch claw them without them starting a roar.
11:55 This is my first Monster Hunter game and I'm gonna say it now "I never died to that attack"..... Though uh.... the weapon I'm learning the game with is the Insect Glaive.... Definitely seen my friends get nuked by it quite a few times though. I'm sure I'll get nuked by monsters with good anti-airs later though.
Funnily enough I only died a couple times and it was because of his dash attack instantly killing me (Note, I forgot the existence of food until half way through coral area since friends started getting on my case for it [and saying good job on being able to get that far without food]. I wanted to get past tutorial sections first to save up money, which I did run out of in the coral area). Insect glaive can fly around a lot, but you do have to land a few times. Then I'd usually get insta killed after drinking a potion, sharpening my weapon, or sending the kinsect out.
45:55 ish - Nice to know that mounts get harder overtime. Been getting more desperate as the fight goes on, nice to know that the mounts get harder. Since I'm using insect glaive, I've been prioritizing trying to get mounts so the monster gets toppled over for my friends to wail on it with 1 person being dual blades and greatswords for everyone else. So once a monster stops moving, it just melts.
47:15 As someone who used to stream, I too am also someone that suffers from overcorrecting. Though it's not just from streaming, it's lack of time to play the game, and trying to keep up with my friends because we want to be around the same area, so I gotta squeeze out as much efficiency as possible. (This video is actually extremely good for helping me learn a ton of things I wouldn't have thought to look up, it's like a coaching session)
Counterpoint to being too greedy, some games will punish you for hours/days for getting greedy, and people will eventually give up. It's a balancing act of being greedy and not greedy enough. I'm definitely someone that needs to be more greedy though. All that said, if you're playing great sword, and you're not being greedy..... Why the heck are you using the weapon? It's all or nothing with that weapon. EMBRACE IT!
As a new player, insect glaive feels pretty hard to be greedy with, especially in a party. Don't wanna smack people with the sweeping attacks, which is part of the weak weak strong infinite combo. Generally I'm just trying to keep up with monsters by flying to them and bouncing off them. I maaay try adding some more descending attacks into grounded attacks more though.
didnt even know about the eye thing. I always look at vital signs and if they blink red, they mad
As someone who's played MH3U on emulator for almost ten years before moving to World and Rise within the last month, I still suck at rolling through the roars.
Hunting Horn can crack Barroth skulls.
"Anyone who says they haven't died to this attack is lying"
I don't think I've even seen him use that attack before but as a general rule of thumb I don't stand directly in front of a monster in the first place.
I think the primary reason most people, at least myself, don't use the slinger to distract is that half the monsters I'm chasing I just outright attack, because they're weak and I'm in a hurry, or they detect me as soon as I enter the area they're in, so I don't get an opportunity.
I believe the Charge Blade can also break the Barroth head with an Impact phial, but only with the Axe Mode and only with a charged phial. But you might mean a more severe break than I've seen.
54:40 I am not even sure, who's nest that is. I've seen several monsters roaming around here. Rathalos, Rathian, Tobi-Kadachi and so on. And I thought, Rathalos' nest was the one all the way at the top of the big tree at zone 16.
And about the thing about being greedy. I am a new player, I have killed my first Nergigante two days ago (after several Quest fails because of this sould crushing dive bomb of death) and killed seven more until now in order to get that impressive armor and weapon (I am playing SnS). It took me over 30 minutes to kill the first, the seventh was my fastest with slightly over 15 minutes. I just doubled my DPS by being greedy and pulling through that perfect rush, no matter if Nergi is initiating a mssive attack. If he hits me, he hits me. If he carts me, he carts me. But even in those few fights I did against Nergi, several times, I managed to interrupt his attacks just by continuing my combo and throw him back, giving me a massive time window, where I can just continue punching him. In those fights, I really learned to be confident in my fights, got a better positioning and just playing more offensively and more greedy.
Rurikhan is absolutely f*cking right, BE GREEDY!!!
Love these reactions, I just got into MHW (and action combat games in general, this is my first) and Anjanath was the first monster I carted on, made me realise I couldn't just spam my attacks (dual blades). I was fine from there all the way until Odogaron (2 carts) and then Rathalos (my first wall that I just finally managed to defeat after several attempts). It was the last reaction you made that helped me get this far because of your tip about sliding attacks, made the difference in several fights.
Any weapon can break Barroths head. It just takes more blunt damage making it easier for blunt weapons to break it. I break it a lot with GS if it's tenderized.
I use auto-sheathe and never have problems.
Only impact can break its head. Its in the data.
He hasn’t adapted to sheathing. His default mode of movement is sprint, so he’s doing it all the time because he’s got his finger “stuck” on Shift XD
I always thought anjanath was more noob friendly than a wall since its a relatively large target and from my experiences mostly stationary
I thought his first nergigante fight was way more impressive. If you think a rathian plate on first carve was lucky check out what he got from good old Nergigante.
and the 3 in a row poison gem is funny af
@@johnnielurker that's a streamer's luck 🤞 if nothing else.
After dipping into Master rank someone told him to go back for the luna repel mission, was a "fun" introduction showing him just how mean monsters can get.
22:45 weirdly this never happens to me, even though I spam the absolute hell out of the attack button. I'm always able to finish my attack.
If my scoutfly start to messed up,,i just open map and close it, it make the scoutfly back to their cage and do their thing right again
I'm a new player, 7 hours in. Is it alright to clutch claw mount a monster while they're running away or relocating? I find they fall over most of the time after the Buster sword mount attack.
Good reaction, very informative! Rise was my first MH and was when I found you, and now I'm trying out World on my new Steam Deck, so I'm glad you're covering it again!
Like Asmond, I don't look strategies and builds for games, so I honestly had no idea about the tackle either, and I'm MR 42!
His Teostra fight was pretty fucking clean. He beat the shit out of him.
most shoulder tackles in this hunt where all accidents i guess cause with GS after a roll and you attack you shoulder tackle so feel those where fortunate accidents
There's no hp bar but you can see under the monster icon have a heart beat,kinda like hospital heart beat indicator. It changing on every percentage monster health when it hit the specific percentage.
Dude it's funny, I know already most of the information your talking about here but I love how your covering this.
Been pretty happy asmongold has been playing because it's showing so many more people the game.
Would love more videos reacting to some of his other fights!
I think it would be awesome if you compared this to his Fulgur Anjanath fight. Technically, it's probably his best fight. Even though he doesn't like the fight. He is setting up hits. Positioning well. Tackling probably more than he ever has before. Getting good use out of the clutch claw. As well as starting to understanding how to make a proper build. Like he got paralysis immunity before the fight. He actually understands what a lot of his skills do now.
Probably the only thing he could improve on is more tackling and learning to wall bang. We are at a point where people are spamming for him to learn cancelling now at the very least lmao. His chat has actually started to call tackling broken now because he is using it really well. He has hit a lot of really awesome tackles since. His acididic glavenus fight he is doing right now is clean as all hell
17:15 I did the same exact thing when I rode a monster for the first time yesterday 😂
oh, no, i use that slinger detection thing all the time. i have a cycle when i was doing that tempered zinogre deco farm, where i would run right up to it, shoot a slinger pod to hit a piece of terrain nearby, then grapple to its face to wall smash it, since it gets locked into its "hey whats that noise" animation and wont roar to get me off in time for me to do it
I learned more random MH infos in this video than in any other MH tutorial video 😂 love it❤
I once managed to do a 1200 DMG opener on rathalos with gunlance using that boulder trap, it did 503 dmg on him and he left him pinned down for a while its insane
I always shoot slinger on the ground.. especially on arenas
Even though he almost whiffed it, the TCS at 59:10 brought me right back to all hunts I spent on GS during my time in MHW years ago. Honestly Ruri is right on the money, you do it for the glory.
thats how you do a reaction, i love the usefull commentary.
I just started playing MHW again then I saw asmon was playing it, then I randomly found your channel and now I’m watching both of yall lol.
SoulsRing really helped Asmon woth those dodges
His rathalos fight was very business as usual. But he did struggle a bit with diablos.
Also when Anjanath is in the state of about to use his fire breath attack. Do enough damage to the threat and it'll knock him out of that charged state.
One other thing: Monsters in higher ranks definitely won’t sleep if you’re hanging around too close. I’m not gonna say that’s guaranteed, but it happens enough that if you want to take advantage of their sleep just hang back a bit.
I dont watch too much of AsmonGolds content, but i am absolutely enjoying your commentary over it. Kind of hoping there are more of these because its so hard to find someone who is higher profile giving MH an honest shot.
That, juxtaposed with top tier veteran commentary (and the info! Gotta train new hunters somehow) is just great. Hoping to make my own return to World soon to join in the fun!
Charge Blade can break Barroth's head because once charged up the sword doesn't bounce. Still a bad hit zone, though.
12:07 can confirm i die to anjanath flame
17:20 yep me first timer mistake
Me being a IG main be like: slopes? Cliffs? Hehehaahaa
That and well, at least I can still do chip damage whilst sharpening my weapon which is real handy and set up for boom booms
I think the flame spray you're talking about is one of the new Iceborne attacks (I think) every monster got.
Ugh yes! I heard you use the charge blade? My favorite weapon. I'll definitely check out your other videos to learn more even though I'm not new lol. His nergi fight is really nice to watch. I recommend
He did bounce right before getting hit and carting, but he was gonna get hit anyway there.
I love the tips and tricks in this video. I've been playing about 30 hours now and have gotten to a point where I'm feeling like a switch axe god and am cruising through. But I've learned some cool tricks from this (like the scout fly direction from your belt) that I had no idea about.
I didn't know that the monster took and received more damage when enraged
I'm sure you've got a lot of other fights you want to see, but please make sure you don't miss his Teostra fight, it's absolutely worth watching! It's at about 2:43:00 of his "Monster Hunter World Has Changed My Life" video.
when it comes to my exp with anja it does the funny fire spit when u are kinda far away from him. it feels more like anti ranged weapon move
Hes in Iceborne and he still doesnt want to use slingers
