Why so much hate on a hammer main?

[Roguezace]

I've used the hammer since 3 ultimate. I always have issues with joining people because everyone hates the hammer. I've been kicked outta so many lobby's due to it... What's your opinion?

Probably because Hammer is the only weapon class in the game that obnoxiously tells everyone else not to hit a very common and valuable weakspot and only the Hammer player is worthy of such a feat.

Every other weapon class in the game is pretty chill towards others; hit whatever part you want, whatever's easiest to reach, etc. As long as the monster dies it's fine.

At least when you get launched into the air you can do mount damage. Can't do jack when you are getting tripped.

If there just was a way to easily avoid getting tripped... oh wait, there is.

If that monsters head is coming anywhere near me I am going to poke it. Screw what the hammer bros say.

There's no "correct" way to play for sure, no guidebook of rules telling you what not to break and stuff, but it sure does kill your soul a little when a monster still has a tail and everyone is bunching up around its head, lol.

That's usually the only time I even notice, and do a mental tut.

Honestly if you join randoms and expect them to adhere to your expectations you've lost the game already before it even begins

But it doesn't work on everything though. Some GS attacks ignore it. A CB guy trying to get his discharge off ignores it. A GL shells ignore it. Oh and the obvious, clusters.

You know what, GS and CB, in my eyes, have as much a right to the head as hammer users. Would be nice if they went for the tail when it's still there, but after that the head is fair game.

It is kinda sad when you join a group of three Greatsword users and the monster still has its tail at the end of the hunt, though. Even less excuse now there's something called a clutch claw available to everyone in infinite quantities, too!

No one hates hammer mains, people hate hammer mains who cry about getting tripped.

[Inuakurei]

You were never kicked, its just steam and/or MHW disconnecting either the host or you. Unless you're constantly disrupting people, which I doubt.

It helps to tenderize the tail for others tho

EL OH EL, at people who do not use "Flinch Free", or position themselves and use "Teamwork", in a "Team" based game during multiplayer...

Just did Arena Quests yesterday with my friend, to get some Blackbelt coins, and just to get "A" ranking, and "Teamwork", is basic knowledge to anyone who has at least half a brain.

Though in this case, I suppose it'd be the same thing as saying "Common Sense, isn't so common", among reality. Applies very much so in Monster Hunter.

I do my best to soften everything, since most of my combos end in a clutch claw attack, yeah. If I see people actively bothering with the tail, you bet your backside I will be first in line to soften that baby. It shouldn't be a rare occurrence, but yet..

It's also kind of a logical fallacy to expect people you've never met to care about you, lol

[Mirai]

I'm a hammer main and I have never been kicked and I got over 1000 hours clocked in on ps4 and pc combined you're clearly doing something wrong and pissing everyone off
