Every weapon in this game is great! But you need to know how to handle/master it. If you take a high damage dealing class (hammer) it doesn´t guarantee a fast kill! You need to learn how to play with your weapon before you can efficiently use it. Some weapons need more work than others. Also the enemy you´re facing is a big factor. A great way to learn how to play with a weapon class is a playthrough with only one weapon type.
All true. To add, effectiveness of your chosen weapon class can also be pushed further with some pre-battle knowledge, like monster hit-location weakness, elemental weakness, bullet-types, bombs, arrow coatings, monster area movement, environmental utility (getting a monster stuck to a wall, hitting them with dragonators, etc), and even flinch thresholds. These are more advanced, but eventually needs to be learned to improve your hunt.
So what's the best way to go about backing up my game save? I need something like iExplore or iFunbox, right?
Can someone explain how the cat kitchen works, it's so confusing: - What benefits do I get from eating while in the kitchen? I thought there's no stamina/hp bar outside of quest maps? - What exactly does switching the order of chefs do? Explanation in-game is very vague - What is "BBQ service"? I handed a "raw meat" to a chef to cook and I've been sitting here waiting for like 10min and the cat is STILL grilling it? Lol I think it's already turned into ash by now - Where do I see the effects of "today's meals" if there are any? I have to manually try every single combination of foods? Also, when can I start hiring comrade cats? All 5 cats from the lady with the huge luggage outside the house are "chef" type.
Please forgive this ..partly.. Off topic question. Does anyone know if MHFU is harder or easier than MH4U? Thanks.
Every Monster Hunter title past MHP3 (direct sequel to MHFU) was generally deemed to be easier and made to be a lot more accessible to a wider audience. Dont exactly have a direct answer to this question, but basing off of Capcom's MH pattern as pointed above, it may be easier.
The kitchen gives buffs/debuffs to health, stamina, strength, and defense. Food can also give you a skill based on the head chief. These buffs/debuffs last until the end of your next mission. BBQ service is finish after you finish a mission. You can start a collect mission and just end it. Here is a food guide. http://www.gamefaqs.com/psp/943356-monster-hunter-freedom-unite/faqs/56911 And just keep doing elder missions until you unlock a comrade cat. They are fairly useless though so don't get you hopes up. And for the love of god don't get a cat that uses bombs. They will kill you far more often then they will help you.
I recently got a hacked cat from someone online, but I kinda dont want to use it. I tried it on a g level pink rathian because my gear is shit and nobody wanted to hunt it. Hacks aren't fun. They ruin the game. I don't understand why people actually hack the game, like where's the skill, and more importantly, the satisfaction? I'm sticking to my shitty bomb cat for now. For some reason the only time it hits me with a bomb is when the monster is already dead and I'm trying to carve
It's really a small price to pay for a game this good. Especially since you can spend hundreds of hours on this game alone (a reason why I can't seem to get into Baldurs Gate lol). I attached a screenie just so you know, that's nearly 250hours on my main. A quick note though, make sure that this game is your cup of tea. It isn't a casual game and is really skill based ie. you have to learn your chosen weapon and your prey to be successful
OHK hacked cats were in the PSP version. Kinda disappointed to hear people hack this game still. The game's strongest point is in its dynamic combat system, where no encounter is the same, and each tail you cut, each head you break, each flinch you inflict satisfyingly inches you closer to even more satisfation. Hacked cats negate all of these. Which is pretty stupid. I dont even know why they play the game after having those furry abominations.
Bleeds and meows, then burrows into the ground to hide for a while. What do you mean that's not the kind of hack you are talking about? I hack my cat all the time with my long sword. He must like it, though, because he keeps coming on hunts with me, hehe.
It has like 67k damage and defence or something, which I assume is the max damage (typical hacker to put a stat to the MAX), and max skill points. The only thing that isn't maxed is the fondness. I imagine it would be a 1HKO on almost all low rank monsters and a fair few high rank ones. I tried him out on a pink Rathian and he killed it in 3 hits, which actually took quite a while considering how lazy it is. "I'm just going to meow while you fight all the stuff" - every felyne comrade ever
This game is so f*cking frustrating. Are you even supposed to play this game in solo mode at all or are all the boss quests meant for groups? I'm doing only 2star boss quests and it's already impossibly hard. The bosses kill you in like two hits (wtf?), and the continuous stream of monsters that spawn makes it impossible to use items during the battle. The entire fight is pretty much just hit once, run around and kite for 30sec, then hit once again and hope the boss doesn't randomly spin 180 degrees and knock you down. Your weapon dulls in only like 7-8 hits yet how the hell are you supposed to grind it with 4 enemies that moves 10x faster than you chasing you down?? Also it's absolutely retarded that armor makes zero difference to defense in this game. Tested it by wearing the worst armor in the game (mamofu or whatever) vs wearing way better armor (full "battle" set), made zero differences to damage received, wtf?
