@@thechilzer7803 I guess it would, but why not just bring the necessary item to counter the blight you're most likely to get and leave the two slots open for other skills?
@@gr3ek19 Blight Resist lvl 3 negates all blights. Level 1 and 2 only shorten their duration. With level 2 you only gotta roll once to put fire out for example.
Coalesence 3 combined with blight resist 2 is a really good matchup since you won't need to sheath your weapon to take a nullberry. Also for Bow and DB just add Resuscitate and the stamina problem is no more. ("Resuscitate: Improves evasion and reduces stamina depletion when afflicted with abnormal status effects.")
Imagine if they had Bubbly skill from Mizutsune armor or that Dragonblight skill from Valstrax + Rescusitate still giving atk boost and Coalesence. Constant damage boost😂
Coa is only after you clear the blight. In that case, it probably wouldn't proc. BUT resuscitate would, and that's actually the build I run in MH:GU! :)
Dragonheart (Valstrax's skill) / Bubbly + Resuscitate is a really good combo because bubbly and gragon blight are very negligible and not easy to get rid off. That's why Resuscitate is not a good ability in World as most of blights that activate resuscitate are very harmfull or easy to get rid off. The only blights that can work decently with Resuscitate is Dragon Blight witch is confined to Savage Jho and Ebony Doggo and thunder blight while using stun resistance. Maybe if you're a weapon that doesnt really care about stamina water and ice blight are negligable at best.
@@toddoverholt4556 funny, I made a badass Jho horn build back in vanilla World that took advantage of Black Diablos parts (Bludgeoner set bonus) with Resentment... sure I put HP absorb on it, but I wasn't trying to dodge much. I'd get chip damage and *bang*, +25 base. On a good crit, I'd deal 325 on a single blow. I think it's time to rebuild.
I think one other reason most people don't run it is accessibility, most people don't typically run Velk or Shara parts, and the Coalescence Deco as far as I know is R11 or R12. It's definitely something that's seldom seen but Coal/HP Boost, Coal/Evade Up, and even just the Coal base I've yet to seen thus far even with farming T2 and T3 tempereds on occasions. Hopefully Velk or Shara get a good gamma piece with something with at least Coalescence I and some extra skill with high slot count to boot.
Question: Why doesn’t anyone talk about this skill? Short Answer: it’s highly situational and requires you to get hit. Long answer: most builds don’t have the extra space for it. If they had 3 extra jewel slots then they would run more reliable defensive skills that would prevent them from getting hit in the first place.
It's not "High situational", because any monster that can inflict blight or a status will proc it, and it can even be procced by the environment. It's moderately situational at best, especially given the number of monsters that don't even need to actually hit you to inflict a blight, and how Fire and Blastblight can be cured by simply rolling. The actual reason no one talks about it is because there's a stigma surrounding the very concept of buffs that require you to get hit to proc, even if the benefit greatly outweighs the downside. Getting hit = bad, therefore skill that requires you to get hit = bad is the logic.
@@godqueensadie I wish I could like more than once. I hate this SO MUCH about the MH community. They act like everyone is part of the Dark Side team and we never get hit or damaged at all. Perks like this are great but "get hit bad so perk no good" mentality is so restrictive and dumb
Chibi Plutia at the upper end of the mobster scale are the tempered elders and invaders. They hit you for half to two thirds of your health every time. So you will need to sacrifice two thirds of your health per 90 seconds to maintain this buff. Then you need to waste a good 5-10 seconds healing up from the hit so you could get that buff, so that really only 80 seconds uptime. That’s in addition to the damage or protection skills you lose to run the slots for this skill. It’s not worth it. So yes it’s highly situational. Now let’s compare that to agitator, which you can have up most of the hunt, don’t need to take any damage to activate, and don’t need to waste time healing up while it’s activated. Then there’s airborne, which has a percentage increase on airborne attacks instead of straight increase, only requires one slot, doesn’t require being damaged, and doesn’t require extra time to heal. You can seriously compare it to just about any other activated ability and it’s just straight up worse. I think if I had extra slots I’d run more agitator/max might/latent/airborne.
Chibi Plutia it wears off after 90 seconds. Most hunts last around 20 mins sooooooo, you want to get hit what 7-12 times per hunt just to get worse damage than all the other attack buffs? Your better off running something else.
Personally i love it on the yian garuga hunting horn. The final upgrade inherently has 45 base afinity using its songs and it can actually utilise all increases that coalescence gives (raw is obvious, status for its poison element and element on its echo wave dragon attack (which is effected by raw and ele increases) Slap some dragon attack ontop and augment (yian personally doesn't need hp augment btw due to extended recovery plus recovery speed and or recovery up and the imunizer item do more than enough.) so you can go ele and atk Boosting both poison and dragon waves even further.
I run immunity+glider with coalesence on each all the time it's wonderfully fun and I get to amplify mounting pressure situationally while locking out every status in the game. BTW, getting out of thick ice/mud also triggers the skill. That's the only way to trigger the skill when the immunity mantle is on.
Coalesence is perfect for the dual element/status dual blades which are blizzard and blaze plus the gold silver fire poison one. These daggers are weak as building for them is a bit harder, but the result is a weapon that is hard for most monsters to counter.
Pair it with blight resistance 2 for easier activation. BR2 drops blight duration by 90% if I remember right, so it's possible Coalesce will be up a majority of the fight.
I got Coalesence lvl 3's off a single round of Silver Ticket x40 melds. At first I was like.. Pffft, more poiso... DaFuq. Oh Cool, look what I just fo... ANOTHER?! Thats about how my inner-monologue went down + that N64 Christmas kid @ 10% power level.
dont quite see the appeal, since i was able to max out Crit eye, Crit boost, Weakness exploit, and Partbreaker in one build, with Masters touch 90% affinity + 40% extra damage from Crits + 30% part damage + no sharpness loss during crits
i have a build that has 75% resistance to blights and status effects with level 4 critical eye, coalesence level 3, stun immunity, agitator level 2 (when mobs mad. cannot remember the skill name exactly) resipricate level 3(think that was the name. buffs you when your with red health) and attack level 5, aswell as level 3 devine blessing. its an impressive build to run with coalesence, as status's wear off in seconds, blights dont do much, and anything the blight caused for health just increases attack further. honestly, itss a hard to work build because you want to be effected by status as much as posable, but the risk reward is worth it. im an insect glave with blast proc user aswell. so i get a good bang for the buck with the build
Coalesence gives 18raw( meh after lvl 1), 90 element/status, and 15% increase to your status buildup. 30% chance base, 30% chance from the respective skill and 15% from coalesence gives 75% activation on your status buildup plus the 90 status and 18 raw. Coalesence 3 is a must IMO on status builds.
I run a survival build with gold rathian and Vaal parts, with the shara chest for coalescence. It's not a killer set, but I can play recklessly and still put out decent damage. Slots are decent as well.
Thanks for the reminder of this great skill. I've been on the fence about it for a long time, but maybe it's worth looking into with the info you just shared :)
Yes I love this skill. I'm a decent player who plays multiple weapons but I'm not that great so Coale is a much better skill than Peak Performance to me so I usually run Agitator+Coale as offensive skills.
How does Coalesence mesh with Wide-range? Maybe not on the healer but what about a team of 3 hunters with coalesence and 1 wide range healer to cure everyones blight in one go?
Blademaster weapons typically have a decent amount of extra slots, especially when it comes to gold rathian weapons which have both incredible stats, great set flexibility the ability to use the status half of the buff, if there is a way you can fit coalesce in a set with a level 4 slot it would definitely be worth it
does the elemental damage it adds count as base element, or does it add to the same limit as the elemental armor skills? If it counts as base elemental damage, that makes it slightly better, as it would make element scale higher.
I think the reason why no one uses it/talks about it, is because the theory behind it is inherently bad, you literally have to be affected/hit in some way in order to get the skill to proc, something that speed runners try to avoid anyway so it seemed pretty niche but, personally around mid to end game I started adding at least one level to most of my sets especially when you realize hunts are way longer and getting blighted in some way is kind of unavoidable in Mr with various match ups anyway so you mind as well make use of it as best you can but the skill is pretty solid over all.
Because most of us are trying to get to the point where we aren't getting hit, let alone blighted. That's why. General thinking is to select skills that will always be in force, or can easily be invoked without pain. So it may be a somewhat decent skill, but it can always be dropped in favor of things that can always be active, like vitality, health recovery, true shot, part breaker, etc.
Before I even watch the vid, I will say I love this skill and have been running it ever since I got the Shara set. As a hyper aggressive player, I often get smacked around a lot and get blights often, so this is actually much better for me than stuff like Peak Performance or Maximum Might. Coalesence is secret sauce.
max might got a crippling nerf during icebornes drop, it used to be you'd keep the buff for a decent chunk of time when you rolled, now it's almost immediate. unless you're running lance I highly recommend other methods of building affinity, unless evade rolling isn't your style regardless.
@@Ed_man_talking9 I have 1000 hours in this game. Thanks for the advice but I dont really need it. I already have a set where I can hit 100% affinity no issues using meta means. Sorry but I play this game in different ways whenever I feel like it because it's fun. Contrary to popular belief, playing meta all the time actually gets pretty fucking boring.
I'm using two levels of it in a build due to leftover slots and the return on investment. It's a great skill and very easy to keep up. Nice vid, man. Thanks for bringing attention to something different
Okay, so I might be crazy, but on Xbox, if I try to sort armor by skills, coalescence is NOT on that list despite velkanas armor CLEARLY having it. Am I crazy or is this a bug? If I'm just blind, what page is it on?
Travis Williams very last page, at the bottom. Should be with Offensive Guard. (For filtering decos) When looking at armour at the smithy, it’s usually after the first set of armour set bonus skills. Sorry if im confusing you but it is there :D
In the old MH games you could just eat a poison mushroom and get poisoned, which would work well with this skill, considering it lasts a whole 90 seconds! Haven’t tested in the new game but I suppose you can’t poison yourself anymore? But there are so many things here and there in the new maps that can be used for this. Definitely is a good skill.
How do you get standalone Coalescence and Offensive Guard jewels? I've exclusively seen them as level 4 mixed jewels. Do I have to farm HR tempereds or what?
It does exist and it's a (if i remember right) rare 11 deco, so don't go back to high rank for it. Sounds like you're just getting unlucky. Regarding offensive guard, I don't know.
@@stormetro6046 In the MHWI builder there's a level 2 Offensive Guard jewel, so I'm assuming it exists. MR has indeed been very unkind compared to HR in terms of decos. I've gotten some bangers, like Satiated/Expert, but no Attack+ or Challenger+, or even another Expert+. I keep getting resistance jewels and other things I won't use outside of melding. Is it more efficient to farm tier 2 monsters still? Or are tier 3s the best choice for MR deco farming?
@@Idothinkysaurus What threat level to do depends on what rarity deco you want. Regarding expert+ jewel that's a rare 12 so it's basically our new attack deco in terms of how hard it'll be to get, possibly worse. If you're shooting in general for good decos tho, I would say threat 3 because there's no longer streamstones from investigations to make it the same as high rank where threat 2 was better for the good decos. Through threat 3 you would be getting a bunch of low rarity decos anyways.
Real reason why people don't used because master rank armor is very easy to get a lot attack but yes it's better if you can stack all together. Keep in mind too much attack is a trap in MR when you can easily get more critical with 3 critical boost jewel which is better dps bonus.
Don't know for sure, but I would assume "no". Those usually require specific buffs such as Impact Mantle or KO/Stamina Thief decorations due to being a part of the weapon's motion values rather than its visible stats.
I think a lot of people are conditioned to build for the "perfect run" which means they ignore great defensive or counter skills like this because they're imagining not getting hit. I actually go the other way; I don't tend to run it because I will often put enough ele resist on to not get blighted (or for Brachy I run blast res, for example). It's definitely a good skill for the likes of Teo and the Rath family, though, and another of those great single-point skills. Thanks for the video!
@@sparks4142 Sure - I don't think that's the same consideration though, obviously you won't run it if you literally can't (you could build for it but I'm not sure it's worth going that much out of your way for). But of course anyone on the wrong end of the Desire Sensor has my sympathies, we're a missing something we desperately want which everyone else we know seems to have gotten! 😭
Why is no one using it? Because there’s no TH-cam video showcasing it. Because people only play by the internet nowadays. Because people only copy online “meta” sets.
You speak as if it's possible for me to NOT get afflicted by SOME type of ailment during a fight lol. I dont gotta go outta my way to proc this. Its GUNNA happen lol

I'm using two levels of it in a build due to leftover slots and the return on investment. It's a great skill and very easy to keep up. Nice vid, man. Thanks for bringing attention to something different
Between peak and coalesence which should got priortized first if i want run both of them at set?
Love your vids! You are the one who got me to main the elemental bow :)
I actually ran Coalescence on my LS run against BV Vaal. It's pretty neat but not worth it if you need effluvia resist 3 instead.
That god damn evasion mantel equip + Vaal dodge, tho... I know what I'm pulling the hand lotion out to tonight.
Okay, so I might be crazy, but on Xbox, if I try to sort armor by skills, coalescence is NOT on that list despite velkanas armor CLEARLY having it. Am I crazy or is this a bug? If I'm just blind, what page is it on?
Travis Williams very last page, at the bottom. Should be with Offensive Guard. (For filtering decos)
When looking at armour at the smithy, it’s usually after the first set of armour set bonus skills.
Sorry if im confusing you but it is there :D
then why dont you suggest people to wear AT Velk gamma head piece for LBG?????
Actually, it DOES proc after a stun or a bleed
Does power prolonger extend the coalescence effective time?
In the old MH games you could just eat a poison mushroom and get poisoned, which would work well with this skill, considering it lasts a whole 90 seconds! Haven’t tested in the new game but I suppose you can’t poison yourself anymore?
But there are so many things here and there in the new maps that can be used for this. Definitely is a good skill.
Having two resistors to make the elemental blights last less time could be useful with that skill
How do you get standalone Coalescence and Offensive Guard jewels? I've exclusively seen them as level 4 mixed jewels. Do I have to farm HR tempereds or what?
It does exist and it's a (if i remember right) rare 11 deco, so don't go back to high rank for it. Sounds like you're just getting unlucky. Regarding offensive guard, I don't know.
@@stormetro6046 In the MHWI builder there's a level 2 Offensive Guard jewel, so I'm assuming it exists.
MR has indeed been very unkind compared to HR in terms of decos. I've gotten some bangers, like Satiated/Expert, but no Attack+ or Challenger+, or even another Expert+. I keep getting resistance jewels and other things I won't use outside of melding.
Is it more efficient to farm tier 2 monsters still? Or are tier 3s the best choice for MR deco farming?
@@Idothinkysaurus What threat level to do depends on what rarity deco you want. Regarding expert+ jewel that's a rare 12 so it's basically our new attack deco in terms of how hard it'll be to get, possibly worse. If you're shooting in general for good decos tho, I would say threat 3 because there's no longer streamstones from investigations to make it the same as high rank where threat 2 was better for the good decos. Through threat 3 you would be getting a bunch of low rarity decos anyways.
I have 3 offensive guard decorations by themselves. It’s rarity 11 and it’s a level 2 decoration
Real reason why people don't used because master rank armor is very easy to get a lot attack but yes it's better if you can stack all together. Keep in mind too much attack is a trap in MR when you can easily get more critical with 3 critical boost jewel which is better dps bonus.
Does the status boost also increase a hammers or HH's exhaust/KO values?
Don't know for sure, but I would assume "no". Those usually require specific buffs such as Impact Mantle or KO/Stamina Thief decorations due to being a part of the weapon's motion values rather than its visible stats.
Does the timer reset after you cure another blight when the skill is already active from curing a blight earlier?
I've just ben using it now recently and its in all my dualblades sets now
I still think it is named or translated wrong. I still end up calling it Convalescence, as it more accurately describes the trigger.
How do u keep spamming the 3 arrow shot??
I think a lot of people are conditioned to build for the "perfect run" which means they ignore great defensive or counter skills like this because they're imagining not getting hit. I actually go the other way; I don't tend to run it because I will often put enough ele resist on to not get blighted (or for Brachy I run blast res, for example). It's definitely a good skill for the likes of Teo and the Rath family, though, and another of those great single-point skills. Thanks for the video!
or they just don't have the damn deco lmao
@@sparks4142 Sure - I don't think that's the same consideration though, obviously you won't run it if you literally can't (you could build for it but I'm not sure it's worth going that much out of your way for). But of course anyone on the wrong end of the Desire Sensor has my sympathies, we're a missing something we desperately want which everyone else we know seems to have gotten! 😭
Take Blight resistance 2 with Coalescence, one roll and you are clear from the elemental blight and boom you are SSJ
People ARE using it. Just not the randoms you get on SOS that runs WR5.
Ikr wind resistance is a joke
@Josh derp huh?
Are you able to refresh the buff while it's still active?
I've seen plenty of people use this skill. Maybe newer players dont but it's still being used.
Yessss people learn more about this if I clear your blight for you as a healer you will basically keep this skill up indefinitely ❤️
Lol wait what? Did you even test it? Of course it works on both stun and bleed fam.
Running it on a dualblade build works godly with latent and 3 resent.
Love your videos mate. Thanks a lot 👍.
uh i am using it. sometimes over the atk boost depends on the time
Using this against bracky is amazing. Just go into it’s slim, roll it off and your set.
i style need to get my hands on the deco tho for the mantles
Stun can also activate it
I use this in my slice LBG raw build. Having an extra attack 4 is pretty awesome
Stun and bleed does work.
Its super good againts monsters who use of blights and stuff
Coalescence is the single biggest slept on skill in the game right now change my mind So broken
It actually works with stun and bleed
Everyone speaks about having jewels of it yet i habe 0 jewels of it just a charm lv2...feelsbadman
my master touch rajang great sword uses coal in its free lvl three slot
Can you eat poison mushrooms?
Yes but it won't poison you, mushroom cancer skill
Why is no one using it? Because there’s no TH-cam video showcasing it. Because people only play by the internet nowadays. Because people only copy online “meta” sets.
You speak as if it's possible for me to NOT get afflicted by SOME type of ailment during a fight lol. I dont gotta go outta my way to proc this. Its GUNNA happen lol
I totally miseed coalescence on mantles, nice tip, ty
Because it's too taxing for slots.
You forgot the the best way to Coalesenced: Being bad at the game
My favorite skill
