CUT OFF THE TAIL

[Witch ~]

Seriously as a HH main this drives me Jaggi-crazy!
We have 3 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Cutting-damage users all gathering to the head every.single.time with absolute nobody even slightly touching the tail!

Why is everyone so whack?

Back in the days of MH1 MH2 MH Frontier, there is general consensus that:
1. Leave the head for Hammer / Hunting Horn. So while there is a H or HH in the team, player with cutting weapon should stay away from the head.
2. Leave the tail for GS / LS / Lance / Gun Lance.

In MHW, its just like whatever.

Firstly, although there is voice chat, but no one wants to use it. In fact, communication with other players has been more difficult (people just disband after the hunt - so you can't speak to them unless you follow that person into their online session. Most of the time, its better to forget it - just move onto the next game.)

Secondly, monster materials are no longer important. It is like: Gems? What gems? I already had a dozen of Nerg Gems in my chest. Besides, I got most of the Gems from curving body / rewards rather than from curving tails... (SAD but true)

I've gotten most of mine from tail carves (and there's a higher chance on tail carves which is undeniable.)

I play since MHF1 on the psp, and you proved to us all that u are totally saying ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥... dual blades cant even reach the tail on any monster... except maybe dodogama rofl

Dual blades can reach a lot of monsters tails with the spinning attack. I was just using that as a loose example. Tbh I'd rather have the longsword user on the tail myself and the DB user on the legs, but it all just depends on your team makeup.

This spinning attack isnt meant at all for dps but to get closer to the monster fastly... the only dps move of this weapon is the demonic dance (or whatever its called, i dont remember) what weapon are u maining ?

The upwards right slash and right double slash attack? No, it's not for moving fast. You have 2 spins that let you hit 4 times for decent (not great) damage on higher areas.

Also again, I was just using a random set of weapons. If you read what I said I stated it's better for a weapon with longer reach to be on the tail. Your argument is mute. In reality normally the LS user would be on the tail, but a DB user can snipe the tail on a lot of monsters pretty easily lmao.

The spinning attack you're on about isn't what I'm talking about. You're talking about the dash forwards while attacking.

Now you're making me wonder if you've even played DB's lmao.

Im not a real englishman so i may cofound some things ya know.
Anyway, even a ls user, (i use ls a lot too) will have bad time reaching the tail of any elder (except nergi) or a deviljho... 1 hit on 10 will hit the tail, added to the multiplayer partbreaking scaling etc... definitely unbearable to do lol... bs

And dont stick to a single weapon, ive more than 100 uses on almost every weapon so ik what im talking about dude.

Then greatsword should be on the tail because it can charge. SA, lance, gunlance, almost every bladed weapon can EASILY reach the tail.

Also really funny you think LS isn't meant to be a tail cutter when it's literally one of the main tail cutting classes in the game.

Also I have 20 sets each with a different weapon. I've played everything.

I wont bother answering you anymore, as u dont seem to understand anything i explain to u, as an experienced player... just make sure if we meet one day in a hunt i wont bother aiming to the tail into an end-game investigation just to get some low chances getting some gem... that i can get way more easily in solo on a non tempered hunt.

That's fine I'm just telling you why some people get annoyed. I have probably 10k+ hours in this series as a whole as I literally no-life these games until I get everything I want or until the next one comes out.

Also removing the tail makes some fights a LOT easier. Especially monsters that tailswipe a lot. This is another reason to remove tails.

Well... following your logic...if you no life this game you are supposed to be a good hunter with good skills, so the tail shouldnt be a problem for you.
And give me an example please, because except deviljho and eventually legiana i never had any trouble with tailswips in this monster hunter.

Rathian? Pink Rathian? Teostra? Lunastra? That's four off the top of my head with little to no thought that all have a lot of tailswipes that have a lot of range or can apply status effects on hunters. Legiana's tail isn't even an issue, so idk how you'd have trouble on that monster.

There's tons of reasons to remove tails and give hammer users room on the head lmao
After tails gone then sure, I can understand going after the head. But even then why not go after the legs to trip monsters leading to more damage for the whole team?

They apply poison which a lot of time in pubs people forget to pack antidotes, so taking it out removes that issue for you AND your team.

Legiana's tail isn't even severable man, which I thought you'd know as a so-called experienced player.

You're clearly missing my point. It benefits EVERYONE, not just you. It makes it easier to deal with and dodge, objectively so. I don't think I've ever fainted to a rathian in MHW (unless I modded in a stronger monster.)

Granted I'm sure a tailswipe will eventually catch me offguard if it hasn't already haha, ♥♥♥♥ happens.

[TrqcKed 🃏]

Whatever you'd say... much people agree that the only way to play is the one you like, the one you have the most fun and pleasure playing with, doesnt matter the weapon (except cluster bombers, these guys should play alone).

If you need to be asked to play how you are supposed to with your weapon, you might consider not playing multiplayer.
