Solo? Sometimes....

This series has always had stupidly long boss fights. Saying this as a long time fan. They've managed to rein it in... slightly? With Wilds. But they've still got a ways to go.

You re doing something wrong. Most of mine die in 9-12 min window.

Meanwhile same monster, someone else clears it in 5 minutes. It's not abnormal to have long hunts in Monster Hunter games, but they do become faster and easier the longer you play and more mechanics you learn to use regularly.

Most fights are 5-7 mins on my end with charge blade. Wound system is too overpowered and seriously need a nerf.

For a newbie, 30 minutes? Probably ok but most people probably finish LR fights solo no NPC ~5-15 minutes. I'd watch a youtube video just to understand the basics of LS though because you might be missing some critical information.

I have it around 4 - 5 mins, 8 - 9 on tanky or monsters that like to move from zone to zone.

Make sure you are targetting weak points as well as attacking the right body parts.

Turn on automatic SOS option in the multiplayer menu and your time will significantly drop lower with AI/real people helping you.

Yes it's normal if this is your first MH game for hunts to take 30min, especially if you're just following the story line and practicing by hunting via quests/sos. Through out all the MH games some of the larger bosses have multi phases so there's that too. Quests typically give you a 50min timer for this reason. As you get better your hunt times will get lower :) Remember to use your environment, food buffs, and tools to the fullest!

[Kinzuko]

upgrade your gear, prep better, play solo, and git gud? gunlance/HH most of my hunts take like 3-10 minutes.

[Armored Chocobo]

In other games, yes. Especially Solo.

Here...I'm seeing where the "too easy" allegations are coming from. I haven't hit a wall yet.

You could always use SoS for carry you know. The ai will heal you and help you by 75 percent.

With the exception of the some of the longer missions (like the later missions with Olivia that sets monsters HP to their 2-player values despite it only being you and a crappy ai) all of my hunts take 12 minutes or less. Could I ask which monster it was? Sometimes the issue isn't so much the gear but rather a bad "matchup" into the specific monster that makes hunts longer than expected.

[Zefar]

Are you using the weak point attack mechanic?

Because that can add a lot of extra damage when you break parts and then do finishers on them.

[BEEP!]

I hate to say it OP but you must not be very good at the game Wilds the monster have surprisingly low HP and they don't dish out much damage either, you must not be playing very aggressive like I'm using a double HP mod for monsters and I'm still not getting much longer than 10min fights.
