a majestic horn is proving hard to get. earplug charm still seems a long long time away...

speaking of, do earplug decorations actually exist? i was hoping they did just so i wasnt stuck wearing bazelgeuse armor at all time to negate the worst mechanic in the game.

Yes, they do exist. [lol]

This reminds me that I should probably thank Capcom for not putting monsters in World that exploit their roars the way Najarala and Bloodbath Diablos do.

m pretty sure there's a decoration for anything that isnt a set bonus, tho some are obviously rarer than others.

they exist so much I've had soemthing like 10 of them. I'd say you're just getting desire sensor'd.

[up][up] Even then, we have stuff like Non-Elemental Boost existing both as set bonuses and as skills with jewels.

maybe.

or maybe ive just not unlocked the decorations yet and i need to do tempered monster quests for them to even have a chance at dropping.

[up]The higher tier Feystones do only appear from tempered rewards; if you want to get rarer jewels the best way is tier 2-3 tempered investigations.

Tier 2 is the 4 apex predators and the monsters that are high rank only and gives you the best chance for rare 8 jewels.

Tier 3 is tempered elders and has a lower rate for jewels but a much higher rate for warior's and hero's streamstones.

So apparently that Monster Hunter movie that's in development is gonna be a frickin' isekai of all things.

We've known for some time. And everyone has already given up on it.

At this point, I think I'll just settle for whoever it is that did Discovery Channel's The Future is Wild series making a Monster Hunter nature documentary.

Unless Disney or Ghibli makes it (and even the latter needs Hayao Miyazaki's name plastered all over for it to be a success) western audiences especially aren't going to watch a nature documentary about CG animals.

I'm guessing most audiences wouldn't at that. It sucks, but generic action blockbuster #65918 is the most profitable thing most productions can do with the IP.

I suppose my view is that Monster Hunter isn't a huge IP that'll naturally bring in the crowds on name recognition. Meanwhile, it's also shaping up to have nothing more than a generic action movie plot, so I'm not sure who the movie is for.

Yeah, the plot was disclosed some time ago, so we all knew Paul W. S. Anderson was gonna butcher one more franchise.

[up][up][up]Have it narrated by Morgan Freeman. That's gotta do something for it.

ok so im going through tempered monster investigations and im trying to get good decorations, and i got like 3 worn feystones which judging from the wyverian ritual thing is the rarest type of feystone?

but...what determines how many meld points a decoration gets? i thought it was the type, but worn or glowing feystones only seem to provide 8 points, meanwhile i had one dec, an attack gem, which was worth 64 points. wtf?

Attack gems are absurdly rare and add a flat bonus to the most desirable stat in the game, so they're one of the most valuable meld gems.

Mostly it's down to the rarity of the gem and not its level.

Also, it's rarely of any use to try the First Wyverian Ritual unless you have like, 60 bajillion spare decos there's almost never going to be any use for.

Like more than one Fortify jewel, for example.

Unless you savescum, that is.

Not sure how to do that on Xone, though.

You can't barring an exploit. It autosaves before hand just to make sure it's wasting your time.

It's exactly the exploit that I'm talking about. I feel like I shouldn't expand too much upon it here, though. [lol]

After 3000 years, I finally reached the Chaotic Gore Magala urgent quest.

And it hits harder than an elephant in heat. No kidding, it wrecks my 699-defense armor like Sid Phillips would do to toys. *¬_¬

I read that it's weak against fire. Would Rathaglation be good enough against it?

So, Milla Jovovich posted a photo on her Instagram to calm down people after another cast member posted a photo of himself in standard military gear. She showed her Slinger and appears to be wearing an armor. Not that this changes my expectations on the movie...

So many things could have been done. Could they not find another director? One with a bit more...whats the word I'm looking for...

If you can't handle being outed by a signature, that's on you.

Creativity? Competence? Respect for the franchise?

(OK, I'm not sure of how much Executive Meddling has been going on here, but, judging by what happened with RE...)

Clearly that's just a Nibelsnarf bowgun.
