I HATE Xu Wu

[BeastKingSmash]

anyone noticed how cancer this thing is ? ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ is this stupid octopus aids

if you use LS you probably didn't noticed cause LS makes every monster look generic, but playing with GS or SA against this thing is wow... aids.. just aids .. pure aids.

I don't like any of the cephalopod bosses they aren't very engaging or satisfying to hit, Xu Wu kinda just sits there while you wail on him missing most of his attacks as you clip through him during your combos, then he jumps away and you repeat. At least for me he never lives longer than 5 minutes so it's not too bad, but I never want to see cephalopods in this game again unless they add underwater combat back.

that is actually a good point, clipping into them is a big problem, same with nu udra, many attacks simply miss when you stand next to him. but at least xu wu happens to jump away more often than nu udra.

Yeah, I think it's just because they are in this game though.

If they had been made in older games they'd be more aggressive and switch up what tentacles they are using all the time and more often. Instead of just letting you wail on them.

Just unfortunate consequence of the new gameplay AI.

this sounds like a major skill issue and typical "wah LS is too easy" rhetroic, also; how are you using swaxe against him and struggling? you just suck dude

I use SA and didn't have any problems with Xu Wu. It's so satisfying to get an offset axe attack on it, or even a sword counter.

real af, plus if you know how to use elemental discharge and the full release slash you can cut through multiple tentacles
op and most of the people complaining are just bad at the game fr
literally the first thing you need to learn about MH is positioning imo and if people are whining then it's their fault and need to get better
once i had a GS user not understand how to do wake-ups with bombs and TCS like bro???

[TempOHs]

Ironically i think its one of the easier monsters and it doesnt use an element. HH & SaS main btw, just stay close and your good like literally up on it.

[TuskSpin]

Between greatsword's tackle and switch axe's counter I have no idea what unique advantage you think LS is giving.

10 uwu, i cant even find 1 part of it that look cute

[Small Business Owner]

If only there was a 2nd weapon you could swap to use on the fly that may have an easier time dealing with it.

[Caramel_Clown]

OP makes it sound like monsters use different moves against LS players. How stupid can these threads get. If you can't read it's moves with GS or SA you'd suck with any weapons against him. SA is like one of the prime weapons against it.

They're my least favorite fight in the game, due to how deceptive the reach of their tentacles are.

I refer to them mockingly as "uWu".

I wouldn't say I *hate* them, but I got nailed by their attacks unexpectedly a lot.

omfg my friend said the exact same thing, "Damnit lets fight the uWu Xu Wu again"

The weakspots on the octopus fights are the heads and tips of the tentacles. Cutting off the tentacles makes the fight much easier.

Some of his attacks are earnestly fun to dance through, he's the more fun fight out of the two octobros on hunting horn at least

eh some of the monsters have odd hit boxes as well as the hunter, I've been hit while in the air when a monster did a ground attack. Same standing to the side of a monster when they did an up and down attack and you arent near it.

Like most monsters, fun for some weapons, sucks for others.
Squids are a riot for DB. There's nothing quite like chopping off all their tentacles one after the other.
