Taking 100 hours to understand MHW's Decoration Slot system
It took me this long to see those tiny 7 pixel wide triangles under my armor slots to understand that the slot system is totally different than previous games regarding the use of level 2 and level 3 decorations...

Man that is convoluted.

It took me five minutes to figure out the correlation between Size 1, Size 2 and Size 3 jewels and the Size 1, Size 2 and Size 3 decoration slots.

A little longer to realise Size 3 slots can't fit three Size 1 jewels in though.

It took me a lot longer to find out Size 3 jewels are largely worthless to everyone but bow users (except Brace and Handicraft Jewels) and that Size 2 jewels are the best bunch for value.

It also took me a while to figure out size doesn't matter except in the bedroom but instead RARITY is the real kicker. Size 1 Jewel Rarity 8 is way more precious next to a Size 3 Rarity 6, despite the size difference and rarity of Size 3 deco slots.

To me it's just like Fable Anniversary / Fable II augments, only with sizes.

It's simplified :3 But, like, if you select the thickest one with 3 triangles it shows you level 3 gems. It's not too complex.

100 hours? To understand such a simple thing? Dang... it took me a couple of minutes to understand that jewels are decorations and that decorations give certain effects and that they come at certain levels which stack. It seemed extremely basic and underwhelming to be honest. This is my first MH game, perhaps that makes the difference? But then again I've seen plenty of MH veterans that also understood the decoration system with close to no "effort" of trying to understand how it works...

The amount of time it took you to understand that raises so many questions, but I will just leave it at that lol.

It's like I bumped into you and you tried claiming I did a running superman punch to your groin in terms of blowing stuff out of proporption lol. That was nothing but a harmless jest.

this whole post was a joke about how vague MH's menus can be even for a MH veteran, and yet it became a post for people to compensate for some self-esteem they lack or something.

The community seems to jump onto posts worded as "I can't figure out X" pretty ruthlessly. You should see the threads about flash-bombing.
