Extreme Behemoth breaks Guard Up in MHW with some of his moves.

Ah ok, finally something that does.  Not that that matters for PCers at the moment.

How do you get chipped by Kulve?  I've stood in his mega lava stuff and been fine (have to keep moving to recover stamina though).

I thought Kulve's lava chipped, maybe it doesn't with Guard 5? Perhaps it just sounds like it does. I tend to run HBG without a shield lol

Nice one, Wookie!

Yay in HR now and everyone’s favourite gatecrasher is back. Oh how I have missed you ....

Yeah, I got used to dungball at the ready routine.

Although failed my first quest to kill him yesterday - ran out of time.  That was a bit of a surprise but I think I spent too long collecting materials and watching the numerous fights between him and the others.  Might go back to longsword for him as switch axe is too slow in axe mode (for reach) and sword mode doesn't reach but is faster.

Also failed Nergi three times.  Which is more expected as that bugger can one shot me at 150 health at the moment.

Grats man. I'm more of a ranged guy v Baz, gotta love that lightning pierce all the way down him!

Unlocked that pesky HR restriction for the first time in GU yesterday too.

Click right stick I think.  Gives you a lock on.  It will cycle through the different monsters on the map so you have to make sure you select the correct monster if you've accidentally clicked it again.

You can also change the left bumper/trigger (configuration dependent) to look at target whenever you press it.

I used the lock on option when originally playing on PS4 to get a feel for annoying things like Anjanath who can bite you from half the map away.  Useful for Odogaron as well.  But once I got familiar with their patterns I went back to manual camera control with the right stick.

That helped, ta gents.

First Bazel invasion last night. Lol at the music change, lol even harder at the fact it managed to appear overhead suddenly in a cave??

One of these days 3D videogames will actually handle clipping objects with something like physical sense.

I don't think that really makes it unique in its production class tho.

Poor Rando.

Can't get off GU, HR 50 and Deviant farming runs ahoy!

Val Doonican farming tonight with randos.  Randos are truly shit with old Val.

Pro Tip, when you've half health don't just stand there fighting head on as you will die.

Annoyingly I don't have any miasma jewels this run so he is annoying for me solo as well.

Online is really weird with this game.  I think if someone has a bad connection the game just slows down.  Fighting Tesotra last night and it was slow, someone died and it went back to normal speed. And there are odd timing glitches as well with attacks that hit you that seem miles away.

Is there ever a point to mounting? Seems like a lot of effort for fuck all damage.

If you succeed you'll topple the monster.

If you have a high output weapon it's very useful as the monster stays put.
If you are in a team, then it's open season for a lot of damage in a short time.
Allows you to focus on a body part that can be hard to hit normally, e.g. Val Doonican's tail.

If you play without a cat it increases your damage quite a lot as it gives you time to get decent combos off (something you can do often if you play with a cat).

Aw.
