Defender LS And Blackbelt Armor Are Too OP

[MaiyagyGery]

That is exactly my current equipment and up until 4 stars village quest i never carted even once.
I tried the Hub Quest LR 3 stars to hunt Gossharag and Magnamalo in an arena and this equipment is once again is enough.
Is the starter weapon too OP or the game are too easy?

Like i said ealier, you will have no problem with monsters until half of MR. So all HR will be easy too. Only some monsters can be problem: apex from fury, monkey (still don't know how to fight it) and bosses

Hahaha you're right lol

My entire rise playthrough until HR6 or 7 was this gear. And I could probably still be using its light bowgun now that I'm HR 100+ . Like I tell my friend "I wished I had played before this gear existed", cuz I've played since mh3u and this is the only mh game where I had no feeling of progression at all. No point to any of the bosses I killed.

We had no experience of "Hey lets kill this monster a few more times, I need its mats". I never made a thief cat because there was no need.

Even at hr100+ I have very few armorsets crafted because no point. The melee/gunner armor merge is really disapointing to me too. As a gunner it means so many armor sets don't mean anything to me anymore to make. Means my stats say I have levels of all these skills that don't mean anything to my build.

Hey, that's the same feeling i've had, there is no sense of "i need to upgrade my weapons and armors" lol

I recommend you restart the game without using it, it's a totally different experience. Skip village and go straight to low rank hub

This is why I think there should be a big red warning box telling you that they aren't a good way to experience the game when playing for the first time.

You played since 2013 and it didn't come to you to not use the free set the game gives you and play the game like you did all these years? Really?

I really don't get these people... When i first jumped into MHW, there was the Defender Gear available, at first glance i didn't notice much, but i went straight to my Equip Box (so i could change weapon) and that's when i saw the amount of DEF it had, swapped immediately to a Leather Gear and never looked back. It's that simple. You see that something is "off" you either chose to go for it or don't.

What don't you get? people want to complain about MH in any and every way they can. 5th Fleeters can't be happy that MH exists, they have to have you hate any game they don't love. So they find something to complain about that is easily explained/fixed to poke at the nest and maybe win a few hearts and minds.

World was a great success for MH worldwide, but at what cost have we as a community gotten this popularity?

Idk about 2013, I watched people stream tri for a while, saw them get tri ult. I didn't have a wii or whatever so I got it on 3ds some years back (3u, 4u) for pretty cheap, then got gen when that was like newish.

And I'd play 3u/4u without pets yeah, which people might say makes the game harder,

But yep, until I realized the blackbelt set was a thing I was using liz gear and set to play the whole game the normal way. But after I saw it, nope. Specially not playing it multi with a friend. Where if we have awful times or fail due to cart cuz I'm not using the EZ mode gear like them. Then thats me just wasting their time. Even using a not guardian bowgun in HR6 sometimes felt like holding things up.

What do you mean you don't get it? You're literally giving a reason right in your own post.

How do you write this part, and still say what you did at the start? And apparently the reason you realized in the first place was because you wanted to switch a weapon, well what if you didn't want to do that?

they will last you a few hours but wont carry you to end game however they will ♥♥♥♥ you over in the end as you will have to go back to low rank for crafting anyways

Maybe it depends of weapon. As LS i carried me to MR3+ Then i changed on random MR armor and defend type MR's weapon . I had to grind but... MR monster. Now i'm back to LR/HR and Furry to finish all for achievements. Btw in MR if you are bad you can go with 2 NPCs on hunt from MR2 (if i remember) and it will help a lot

Dude, the village quests are for game journalists... the whole game is a piece of cake till the end game stuff that requires you to play the monster well. You can literally face tank the whole game up to that point.
