Descending thrust without iceborne?

[Azarilh]

Is that move with the Insect Glaive possible without owning the expansion? I know moves with the clutch claw requires the expansion, but the descending thrust does not use the claw yet my friend cannot do it.

[Suzaku]

All new moves introduced with Iceborne require the expansion to gain access to them. It doesn't matter if the new moves use the claw or not.

Ok, that's sad.

Some people are just poor, y'know...

It kinda feels pay to win because if you pay the DLC you get powerful moves. But that's Capcom for ya.

Are you more powerful with Iceborne moveset? Yes.
Is it ''Pay to win''? No not really, this terminology isn't applicable here. MHW base game was designed with your base moveset in mind.

With that dumb logic, any game is pay to win.

If you don't buy the game, you can't play it and you can't win…

What?

I bought my enbyfriend the base game and she can't be as powerful as she could because she doesn't own the DLC.

Its not pay to win if specific content or movesets are locked behind a DLC. If game was P2W you could just go buy full Fatalis gear and ship the whole game. Thats P2W. Your post has nothing to do about P2W. You need to go read up what P2W actually means before making up nonesence.

You are acting like the DLC is exclusively the movesets. You also aren't going to be as strong as you could be because you don't get access to the weapons, armors, decorations, palico stuff and so on.

You aren't as strong as you could be but neither is anything you are fighting so it works out.

Your… “enbyfriend” also can't be as powerful as she could be because she hasn't played until the end of the game and crafted the most powerful weapons and armor. What is your point?

Still not pay to win, it's pay to play.

Call it however you want, i find it unfair that us playing the same game, FROM THE BEGINNING, but i have more moves that give me an ADVANTAGE. I am fine with DLCs but not when they give an advantage in the non DLC quests.

Also your quotes around enbyfriend are very insulting.

No, I like the DLC, i don't like being in the same point of the game as them while i have an advantage with the extra moves.

You are right, it's very unfair on a PVE game that you have an advantage…

And the quotes are because i'm not sure what you mean by enbyfriend since it's not even remotely close to boyfriend or girlfriend to be a typo, but if you get insulted by that then, that is a you problem.
