What do you still cart to?

[Netsa]

This question goes out to all players, but especially the old, experienced, and professional. Nobody's perfect (except that guy). Even after so many hours, so many fights, and so much farming, what still carts you?

This isn't really talked about much on these forums... or in general, really. Everyone seems to be amazing all the time. Let some of your secrets out, what's killed you recently?

For me, sometimes it's when I try using a weapon I don't normally use. More often, though, I just underestimate any given monster, I roll out without eating, and end up getting bodied by an attack I would have lived through if I had the extra 50 health. Or ever upgraded newly-built armor.

i cart against some T3 (mostly overcommitement or clutch claw being clutch claw) and sometimes against T2 in GL or investigations because i'm bored and i don't even try to dodge or think.

Trying to dunk and interrupt animations usually ends badly if I don't get the stagger. Savage's dragon clouds are actually invisible and have trash hitboxes while taking off 100 HP on hit. With rocksteady on that's an easy cart. Rocksteady in general is the main source of my carts, but it's the best mantle by light years so I don't care about getting bazel'd here and there. Just now I almost died to Ancient Leshen's root with 1600 defense and 165 HP, so that's cool too.
If I die in the GL I never use a max potion because I'm stubborn so it's downhill from there. I rarely cart outside the GL but if I do I quit the quest period.

Usually some chain of attacks, monsters get some stupid okizeme at times.

Good example is Silver Rathalos, if I'm too close to his front and he enrages, the roar stuns, I can't roll out of the way of the AOE spit infront of him then, he does another big AOE spit while I'm standing up, and then follows THAT up with the huge chargeup fireball of death that I can't dodge either anymore. It's just a combo to death because of the roar. I don't know if there's a gap there I can get out of that, if I could just lay on the ground and avoid the 2nd fireball, but I just haven't seen it, the last fireball in particular is way too big to avoid. Usually I just try to make sure when he enrages I interrupt the roar to not have to deal with this.

Another common thing I cart to is Ruiner Nergi just going full gorilla mode at times jumping up and down on me. It's like sometimes the dude really wants me to cart and just won't stop zooming around spamming attacks without pause until I do.

I recently had the single most embarrassing moment in my history of playing MH when I carted to a Tempered Radobaan. All I did was Rocksteady Mantle onto its face, it rolled, and all my health was gone. Yes, I use HB3 and was rocking fully upgraded, Augmented lategame armor. Rocksteady is just like that sometimes.

This also happens with Legiana's flying corkscrew attack. Learned the hard way.

Rocksteady was the source of so many of my carts that I had to just stop using it altogether. Made the decision when Glavenous did his quick double-swing on me, multiple times in a row. Haven't gotten oneshot since (at least not on a melee build).

No good deed goes unpunished.

I didn't know what okizeme was, I had to look it up. I agree completely.

Oh and sometimes my kid messing with me.

I learned this lesson too late, when I took shara's beam while wearing the damn thing.

Noticing a pattern here...
Looks like cockiness is just as deadly as using the Rocksteady Mantle.
