Well, I was pretty addicted to this, but think I might drop it. Just learned that I cannot play these stupid fucking (village) rampage quests in multiplayer. These are garbage quests that remind me of the WORST parts of recent Ys games. Wish I knew about this dumb shit beforehand, would have just skipped this game.

Skip the village and go straight to multiplayer. That’s what i did for my son and nephew.

You can play co-op rampage quests from the hub. As other user said, skip village.

Yep rampage is trash. There are only 2 or 3 mandatory story ones in village though, the rest can either be co-op'd or avoided altogether. Sunbreak got rid of them entirely, so it's just the base campaign where they exist. You could get the defender weapons and just go ham on monsters ignoring most of the tower defense shit and still be able to beat the mandatory ones. The easy way is to just hit the gongs when you're able to give yourself a massive DPS boost.

Ah, okay. I've solo'd a couple, they're not hard, I just think they completely suck and aren't fun. Good to know it's not a long term thing. I can force myself through a couple more.

Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
Rampage is great, you know nothing, they need to make the final title update bring them back in G rank in all their glory and make their rewards 111% must have. End of story, nothing more to be said, lalalalalalalalalalala, first you took my swimming now my rampages, just stahp you bullies

P-O-W-E-R-C-R-E-E-P-!
Can't wait to get my hands on that Blood Rite deco to keep Peak Perfomance up during an actual hunt but the grind to AR181 is going so slowly.
I've heard people actually manage to do 5 digit damage!

Damn that's fucking nasty. According to Kiranico, that's enough to 1 shot a LR Great Izuchi.

You know what you have to do, I want a video.

Ahahaha. That was every bit as entertaining as I thought it would be. Thanks for the vid!
Man it'd be hard to resist joining newbie players' LR hunts and 1-shotting monsters left and right with that build.

Holycrap whats the build?

I just followed this. There's going to be variations cause of augments but the basics should stay the same. I'm more about comfy builds so I don't have as many damage skills as recommended.

I’ve somehow played this game for almost 100 hours now… seems impossible, but I’m pretty addicted to it. It has that “Eh, one more hunt” thing going on that can steal hours at a time. I think I prefer Monster Hunter World to this one, tbh, I kinda regret that I fell off that game. Nevertheless, this has been really fun. Unfortunately I wasn’t planning on spending so much time in it though, it’s kinda screwed up my game rotation.

I'm at around 850 right now. I imagine I'll hit 1000 given time. When I get bored I switch to a different weapon and I'm addicted all over again. I made a dual blades set for each element during the weekend and I'm currently practicing using them. Now I can't imagine going back to moving without Demon Mode. And Spiral Slash throwing out so many numbers at once is like crack. Berserk and Strife are pretty comfy too especially now that we can easily deco in Kushala Blessing. Then there's the Intrepid deco so your get out of jail card has it's own get out of jail card.

Thats what happened to me with MHW. 100+ hours with one weapon and then 100+ hours with another and then another and so on. I am liking MHR PS5 as well but wirebug is making it way too easy for both attack and defense but its a fun mechanic. I am already nearing HR200 and waiting for new content as all base game stuff is done and caught in talisman meld grind.

In World I tried to learn all the weapons, but here I've been 95% bow. I have paddles on my controller and I've remapped all the controls to basically never have to take my thumbs off the sticks... idk, I feel kind of invincible and like I probably broke the game. I don't think you're supposed to be able to play it like this lol. I'm still relatively low level and there's a high ceiling in MH, but I see no reason why these early advantages wouldn't scale.
PSVR2 right around the corner.... only so much free time. Don't know how long I'll stick with this, but it's been really fun and I'm glad I bought it. I don't even mind the rampages that much anymore (in multiplayer).

I have a controller with back buttons but I never bothered to program them lol. I should try it out one day. One button for doding and another for scroll swap.

I'm simultaneously having alot of fun and burning out. Basically just doing random hunts from the board one after another on the way to MR 100. I really want that MR 100 Switch Axe cause I'm too lazy to make elemental sets.
It's funny how I haven't touched HH for some time now despite maining it during the base game. Anyway, I can now say that I at least have a hundred hunts in each weapon and I'm still terrible at most of them. I really did not expect how much I've come to like Dual Blades. Spiral Slash dumping a huge amount of damage in a short time without any setup and Berserk letting you perpetually stay in Demon Mode while making you essentially immune to damage has really changed how I look at the weapon. But seriously, Spiral Slash gives me that nice feeling of a pierce ammo seeing lotsa numbers without the shame of playing a gunner.
Anyway, going to take a break until the next Title Update. I've pretty much been neglecting my backlog.

I haven't. I'll probably wait for a sale cause backlog's big enough already but I liked Toukiden so I'll probably enjoy it. The claw blade reminds of Toukiden's kusarigama except even more aerial focused.

Gunlance is the best it has ever been in Sunbreak. It's going to be hard to lose all this stuff once the next game hits.
I'm not sure what you mean. Risebreak decos are crafted, not farmed.

Dafuq what?
So this is why i almost reached sunbreak and i don't have decos at all...
Fuck i'm gonna get used to this, i kinda loved the rng decos hunt.

Risebreak has RNG charms. Decos are just crafted directly from the smithy.
