Gore Magala another example of cheap difficulty in MH

[Armando Broncas]

Out of nowhere this monster does like triple the damage or more than previous monsters and it's "chip damage" when you are guarding is like the NORMAL damage you would receive from other monsters when you arent blocking.

This is stupid.

It's the typical "defense does nothing, resistance does nothing blocking does nothing" garbage that now forces you to use dodge as a main form of defense that games lik Souls like use to make artificial difficulty.

Just beat it, I still think it does way too much damage when you are blocking and there are no resistances attached to said attacks so they basically bypass your block which is a typical strategy for developers to punish blocking.

Anyway, I don't have to read anyone that comes to attack me or to mock me, I have all the right to block people that come with that intention.

And this "telling people you are going to block them is against the rules" because it's combative!!!"

NO

Combative is to come into a post and attack them and mock them, that is combative but I know this are the steam discussion forums and how the apply this rules.

All of a sudden telling people that if they come with ill intentions you will block them is "combative" yeah, give me a break.

This is the reason why I block people because it's the best you can do in this forums.

oh hey it's the guy who refuses to dodge in literally every combat game ever made and then tells the developer to change it, and to date no one have ever listened, but surely this time will be different right.

You can't dodge with a lance in this game, and yes I detest games where the only defensive mechanic is roll to win.

And RE4, and Dragon's Dogma, and Wukong and Sekiro....

Sekiro? when did I said anything about Sekiro?

Good thing they made this game easy mode w/ perfect blocks on a lot of weapons.

Umm whats difficult about that fight i beat the whole of high rank using base low rank Arkveld armour. Tho I'm a vet player I've played since the old PS2 version so i have plenty of experience fighting and dodging monsters.

It's good more people are discovering the franchise just a shame it seems to have been diluted down. I understood LR been easy but was hoping for more of a difficulty curve in HR.

you posted cringe, bro

At least you admit you're a MonHun vet and that might have something to do with it.

I'm coaching a friend into MH World and I'm willing to bet money that he would have carted to some LR monsters if we chose to start with Wilds instead.

High rank will always stay how it is, G rank is where the difficulty comes in.

High rank has also been roughly the same though out the entire series. People will deny it, but it is true. G Rank has actually been getting harder with each new title as well.

The entirety of World was much harder from HR1 to Master and so on. So, not really true on a part of that but over all yea I agree.

That's what people said about Sunbreak and that game only got harder after a lot of TUs in the anomaly rank with a lot of AoE attacks. That's copium.

Gore isn't cheep, gore has a special Effect that makes him more difficult then he really is. See, the frenzy virus doesn't seem like it's doing anything to you but when you get the Red smoke cloud, you're actually taking INCREASED DAMAGE from the monster. So, to keep this from happening, you need to do 2 things.

1. Keep attacking the monster, once you hit a certain threshold, the icon will turn blue and not only will you take less damage but you'll also do MORE damage.

2. Use Nul berries to keep the Guage from filling up. every time you enter a frenzy cloud or get it, it will fill up faster.

just these two things will turn Gore into a joke.

Gore magala is the only monster that as tempered offers an actual threat even to veterans due its aggressive pattern, may it be blessed.

High rank has not been roughly the same through out the entire series. HR World was Substantially harder than wilds before the Iceborne ruined the entire balance of the game (yes, when iceborne came out, it effected BASE world.)

it's not the aggression, it's the Frenzy virus. if it didn't have that, people would be saying gore is easy. For some reason, they made it much harder to do enough damage to go into Immune state with the frenzy virus. so you need to eat nul berries WAAAY more often, especially sense it doesn't even clear half the guage.

you can dodge with a lance, you have a quick side step, you dont need to use it often but not everything should be blocked

You are completely dead wrong here. Lance has one of the best dodges in terms of invincibility frames and distance out of all the weapons. You can chain sidesteps and reorient yourself while you do it.

Oh wait I got blocked. The poor guy will never realize the full potential of the lance.
