Why is transmog locked to endgame?

[Littlefatcat]

Or do you just have to beat the story? It seems like the story is just there to introduce you to a lot of the core gameplay mechanics but i want to transmog now lol…

You can start farming them once you've finished the story. The grind is too troublesome though, people are complaining about drop rates for materials used for transmog.

I think they locked it to keep people playing. They should just add more gear and cosmetics in general and more mounts.

they announced mechanics to upgrading weapon and armor
and i would assume it ties into the cladding stuff


the grind for just visual costume make no real sens

Yeah we already will have some new stuff coming in march so the road map already looks promising. It also not like the game is lacking content when it took me 75+hrs to reach end game and that was JUST using the nodachi and no other weapons.

Most MH games had pretty barebones endgame until the expansions came out so I'm not too worried about that as of now.

Yep. I reached "endgame" and quit because of it. I wont farm 50+ volatile kemonos for a single cladding item. ♥♥♥♥ that.

That's how much you need? Wow they were really confident about people sticking to their game. That sorta ♥♥♥♥ is why people would leave though. I thought the grind for the looking glass menu was bad but 50 monsters for one piece of clothing to become transmog...And I heard the drop rate of the material you need is low

it's around 50-80, roughly, depending on how lucky you are :(

That is atrocious lol...It probably doesn't matter because at the end of the day most monsters can kill you in 3-4 hits anyway.

The sad thing is that spamming traps / harpoons is kinda meta now. You can kill volatile / deeply volatile without taking any damage consistantly that way. So you have to fight 50+ monsters (lets say you want an akikure orb orb for a transmog piece, so you can choose between 3 different enemies) without any real danger or challenge. Either that, or ignore traps / harpoons, what renders slower weapons completely useles duo to the erratic movements of later kemonos.

or just wait for people to mod the game
and make transmoging ez.

They did this to endgame so people would just buy skins in the future. They will come out with cool looking skins and people will buy it.

Thats why its locked to endgame, the idea is that you will feel its worth it when you pay 20 dollars for a skin instead of endless grinding.

idk how easy it is to mod a game that is tied to EA's launcher. I tried to mod jedi fallen order and they made me reset my password due to suspicious activity. All I did was mod it with mando armor and a voice changer but that isn't okay in a single player game according to them..

The reason it takes so much for cladding is because there are so many factors that go against the player.
1: You cannot pick the specific kemono you want to hunt.
2: It requires orbs which are NOT confirmed drops.
3: Because of this even if you do find the monster you want to hunt, there's a chance you won't get the orb you need.
That's why people say you need to kill 50+ kemono. It's quite accurate. You're killing kemono you don't even want to fight just so you can reroll for a CHANCE at the kemono you DO want to farm.
