    So when you tap attack, you can do a swing from the right with the hammer. How do you do a swing from the left? I know it requires moving the vstick to the left as well but it never works

    Maybe I understood it wrong, but I thought it was the side swipe attack that could be done from the left or the right depending on the use of the vstick? (I think this is described in the tutorial on the hammer usage)

    Yeah, it says a Tap does a swing from the right (which it does), then it says if you move the vstick to the left and tap, you'll do a swing from the left. Which never works

    Ok... Now I reaaaaaally think you guys are talking about the hunting horns instead of the hammer.

    Oh yeah, thanks, I could probably beat him melee but I'm trying out the ranged path, which he seems pretty susceptible to. I just feel so fragile, dying in one hit. I wondered if anyone had gunner armor suggestions for the first few ranks.

    Is there a secret to killing piscine monsters that I am just not getting. I'm using the LS and getting killed by the Monoblos. Even though I cut off his tail he still can hit me with the stump. I spend half my time chasing him after he charges or burrows, those other half I spend taking head or tail swipes when I finally get close enough to attack. And even when I get right under him he somehow hip checks me out.

    Didn't have the time to jump in since I bought it but now I'm going to. Since I really almost read all the pages of this epic thread I know some already asked this but if I simply use "Armor" I get around 1 bazillion hits so have mercy: should one buy it's first "good" armor or is it better to carve together the materials for one?

    Uh... really bad advice to go for the tail. If you arent using a melee weapon with innate ESP, you will bounce and will take punishment khezu's next attacks.

    His tail takes very little damage, and you bounce of that a lot.

    Blos is not a piscine. He's wyvern class. :p

    The Piscines are Cephalos, Cephadrome, Plesioth, Green Plesioth, and Lavasioth.

    Have a question you guys, I hope you can help me. How does one easily do the cowardly jump while running? I found that I had to hold run and tap roll with another finger, really feels awkward when I have to use my index finger to run and thumb to jump (since I have to shift my fingers)

    Other than that I really am having a blast with the game. Kudos to cap com for bringing this game to iOS. It's golden and I'm glad more people can enjoy this phenomenal series

    Whatever. All I know is his attacks and tendencies are very similar to that of a piscine. Which makes him hard to kill.

    Didn't you see there's a upward arrow attached to the run button? Hold run button to run then swipe upward, voila.

    I don't get why sometimes my character just sprints and some other does the other run which allows me to jump and avoid any attack due to its invincibility. It happened when I played against Tigrex with EP and Kenan with the attack where he runs at you. Sometimes I would get the stupid roll and get hit and some other times my character would jump.

    If you are facing a boss, you run and roll normally, if he's relatively behind you, you run like crazy and can do the invincible dive.

    I did try that but I still rolled like normal. Though technically that shouldn't even be possible, so maybe I was doing it wrong. Will try again. Thanks guy

    Also, potions and megas don't help because I'm dying in one hit from full health. That why I'm wondering what a good early gunner armor would be that'll allow me to take at least one hit so I can run away and heal.

    Haha oh yeah. Whoops. Either way, could you help me out? Doing the virtual pad left + tap attack never works for me.

    Sigh, Mad catz needs to hurry up with that ctrli
