AWKWARD ZOMBIE

OK but is there any way to make him suck less because I REALLY fucking hate this thing

I like to fight Nibelsnarf with an Ice SnS.

I know in 4 Ultimate Pellet Shots appeared to target its legs even they were under the sand, but didn't seem to go that well when I originally tried using pellet shots on it on Generations.

I don't remember him in 4U, do you mean 3U?

Also after a mount he leaves his mouth open, which is his most vulnerable area, hit that with DA BAMBS for super damage (and I think it allows you to fish him out afterwards?)

You can also Sonic Bomb him up out of below ground whenever he's not enraged

And then after that horrible monster, Royal Ludroth

who was a joke

Aerial Hammer fucking destroys him

Probably. I keep forgetting which monster is in which between 3 and 4 somehow.

Though it's easy to remember all the underwater monsters are on 3. :p

Hey how do you make Gourmet Fish?

I know you cook them but I can't seem to find where to do that.

I believe the Purr-prietress at the Bherna Bistro can.
I've unlocked something called Rife Roast which is the 4th option on the Bistro which enables fish to be chosen to cook.

Yep, you gotta do Rife Roast to do that

it unlocks as soon as you get into 4-star village, I believe

In other news, why is Khezu the only fucking thing to give an Electro Sac, AND WHY THE FUCK WON'T HE GIVE ME ONE

I DON'T WANT TO BOTHER WITH YOU AS MUCH AS YOU DON'T WANT TO BOTHER WITH ME

Khezu is great to fight with Bow

Fuck your AoE I ain't even care

I do not remember Malfestio's rage mode being so annoying in the demo.

why do the deviants have so much health

they wouldn't even be that terrible if they could just die in a reasonable amount of time

Taking this monster hunter a bit slower than past ones.
Just fought the Mizutsune.
I noticed when knocking it over it has pawpads, wasn't expecting a leviathan to have those.

New DLC pack out today, including Metroid, Wind Waker, Animal Crossing, and other lovely things.

What would be a good time to start fighting the deviants? I just got to HR 2 and have three of them available.

Could a decently good hunter plausibly beat them right away?

First things first.
OH MY GOD AERIAL DUAL BLADES.
So much fun.
I made full Astalos and to take advantage of its Repeat Offender ability I decided to use Dual Blades.
And Aerial is so daisies freaking fuuun!

And also I got the credits.
Meowstress' music video. Those Ludroths bobbing their heads to the music!
I love that so much.

Plus Mizutsune yawning.
