RIP my Heavy Bowgun Seikret Build

[SolusiRadikal]

– Heavy bowgun and light bowgun ranged attack capabilities have been adjusted when riding a Seikret.

This translated to increased total damage reduction from 10% to 50% for bowgun & heavy bowgun when riding Seikret

[Maiden Lightlina]

I knew it was coming eventually, free riding damage was just too good, and this solidified it, i refused to get used to it outside of just procing paralysis, and sure enough, they did exactly as predicted, i expect another nerf in the future, because 40% won't be enough for them.

Combat on the mount 100% was never intended. Be happy you had your fun for a while. should have been fixed day one.

they really don't want lbg or hbg to have fun options, this just sucks, its not like anyone was topping speed-runs on seikrats, it was one of the only ways to be in critical range playing solo

JUST GIVE US SOME AMMO VARIETY

Not really an issue of fun, it was an issue of lack of danger.
You could easily dodge every attack,

HBG especially was balanced on having low mobility but in return a ton of damage options.
Especially it's new counter block system

RIP, this playstyle was super fun

1. You can't dodge manually while riding seikret, and the autododge feature only block non heavy & signature attack and it has cooldown built in.
2. Even before TU1, using HBG on foot are much popular than Seikret HBG simply because it doesn't have damag reduction, easier to change fire mode, while HBG already has good defensive mechanic via block

HBG Seikret exist as an optional build that born from creativity, it's not an uber broken build, it exist so people can have fun and experiment more w the giant chicken.

Capcom can nerf the whole damage to 90% and people will still using it because it's still exist, and Zoh Shia HBG + Scorcher damage are not reduced so as well.

If Capcom want the Seikret playstyle to completely out of the picture, then they better disable attacking while on Seikret.

Would have been better if they fixed it before I had 200 hours in the game playing this way and bought a seikret cosmetic because I enjoyed being a riding support so much.
Pretty much retired from the game outright from the shock.

Their way of solving this "problem" of players enjoying the game in ways using mechanics that THEY designed and tested during a lengthy beta test period using such arbitrary methods can't be described as anything but clumsy.

What you mean "counter block system"?
It took me about 50 HBG runs to figure out how to even use the shield, since I always went Power Barrel in every single previous MH game and just tend to dodge.

[Kasa]

Ya.. Every generation It gets harder and harder to keep playing HBG.

Notice how Capcom "fixes" this, but REFUSES to give us HBG players recoil control for Spread? Speaks volumes.
