Master Mounter worth?

[Spags]

How much of a difference does it making mounting wise? Would just airborne be enough?

[Lusus Symphonia]

Never worth it IMO, most hunts will net you 2 mounts easily, that between traps and wall bashes, you've pretty much destroyed 99% of the game.

[Dagný]

it is against safi, you can easily get 5-6 mounts with felyne rider

[Spags]

alright awesome,. thanks all

[cruste]

timewaste in a normal hunt, you just lose too much time through minigame.
it is faster to simply keep attacking with normal attack and abort mount if they happen by accident while using certain weapons.

[Spags]

Do you guys think it would be worth for something like a full support SnS build that focuses on healing and CCing via mounts? I tend to find that mounting, say, raging brachy opens up huge DPS windows for the other 3 players, and being able to mount 3 times can be extremely helpful. 3 mounts without mount master is p. much impossible i think.

No. Support sns is godawful. You're better off just actually contributing damage.

[Cleo]

try and see how well it works with your build .
this is honestly different per monster . some you can mount 4-5 times some only 1-2
i remember making a mounting hammer for Kirin for example . only worked on the slope area but when mounted kirin wouldnt use any of its thunder one shotting attacks . so i'd just grab on and stay for the longest duration i can XD
oh and recently this mounting hammer have been showing success with the temp rajang event quest

not only support but also top damage with perfect rush in a lot of cases

Considering the state OP is in, i doubt he is gonna contribute that much in DPS with a wide range SnS build without Fatalis/optimized Kulve set.

But hey, he wants to help people as much as he can so, that shouldn't be a problem.

I have, actually. And in spite of fatalis armor being stupidly good, AT Velkhana is still the best damage output due to frostcraft.

It also doesn't have many slots.

Support skills are wasted slots.

Something like this kind of existed for behemoth or ancient leshen, if you mount them. They don't anything, except maybe moving around, but they don't attack. Ancient leshen you delayed the mounting finisher to get a big opener for 1:30 min

Nope, other than safi it's kinda wasted
Even against fatalis it isn't that good because he takes a lot of time to mount the second time and you're wasting damage
If you're using IG and want to mount alatreon during dragon phase quick when he's flying just eat for felyne rider

now safi with master mounter+felyne rider is pretty good for the whole team

Kulve Taroth might be a good idea as well

Ha! In a perfect world, maybe but in MHW online play? You're having a laugh? The amount of runs I've had with randoms who get assblasted by easy to dodge attacks and stand back up to meet a monsters attack.

It put me in a weapon identity crisis back in release as the hunting horn buffs, stun potential kept even pokemon players alive.

[Seamus]

Babying bad players with wide range doesn't help them learn to be better players.

Support skills are wasted slots.

[Veritas]

pretty much the only time I used Wide Range was wide Range 1 during behemoth so that Astera Jerky was enough to recover peoples' missing red HP as well as save someone that got pinned from the bleedout.
