I can think of a use for evade extender, gap closing for spreadshot HBG's. I'm still fairly new to MHW, at just shy of 300 hours. I recently, as in today got a glutton HBG from an ATKT I was mostly carried through. I say "mostly" carried because I contributed to the fight thanks to your semi recent video showing among others, a griffon blazooka build. I'm an IG main but I started low rank with HBG, ended up getting wrecked a few times to Anganath before I found my love of IG's. When I got into high rank I wanted to give HBG's another shot (pun not intended) and I discovered your channel. They're not Insect Glaives, but I'm slowly starting to appreciate bowguns again.

A couple notes: - mounting damage is unrelated to your damage output, it's a fixed value depending on the weapon and the mounting attack you're using - Kjarr bows are actually BiS for 3 out of 5 elements; thunder and fire are still good if you want to make comfier builds with con3+ss2 - the fact there are very specific monsters that you can't reliably use Peak Performance against it doesn't change the fact that Empress beta chest is still one of the most efficient chest pieces in the game for damage builds.

I would say instead of trying to be "stronger" early game faster, just be a solo player and keep doing optional quests and Learn more about how monsters behave and whats the best way for you to fight with whatever weapon you finally decide to main. I started with the bowgun until I finally stayed with longsword. After awhile you can start tackling missions without going to the canteen because you dont even need the extra boost, you know you can get shit done without it. Ironically some of the best times I teamed up, was with players who were normally solo like me. We didnt have to constantly worry about one of us fainting because we all knew when to fight and when to stay back and heal a bit. No one was trying to be a hero. P.s God bless anyone who is a hunting horn main I could not believe he buffed us like 65 times in this huge hunt we was in and he made it way easier 😂

I think I've pinpointed exactly when Arch Tempered Nergigante will release. May 31st. Here's why... The week following the end of the Spring Festival will have Arch Tempered Xeno'jiiva on Consoles. Exempting the Spring Festival, Consoles have been getting every Arch Tempered monster (Extreme Behemoth counts as an AT.) in order for the past several weeks. This absolutely guarantees that the week after AT Xeno, we'll be getting a week of Arch Tempered Kulve Taroth. During the two weeks that Consoles will be hunting AT Xeno & Kulve, PC will be hunting Ancient Leshen. At the end of May 30th, with the exception of PS4 Exclusive Content & the inevitable Summer Festival... PC will be completely caught up with Consoles. Hazah! Everyone will be evenly fair game with each other. *_And just like that... On May 31st (Or the night of May 30th if you wanna be accurate to the moment.) Viola! Arch Tempered Nergigante makes his grand debut on all three platforms at the exact same time so we can all wait for Iceborne together._* It's brilliant, Brilliant, BRILLIANT I tell you! Ironically, this is also at the same time in which Arch Tempered monsters were announced in the first place. Capcom planned this out perfectly! *Exactly* one year after Arch Tempered monsters were announced is when Arch Tempered Nergigante releases. That's incredibly satisfying!

A point on Evade Extender: I mainly play Gunlance Shelling and I have really good experiences with Evade Extender, not so much on the defensive side but on the offensive. It's good to get near the monster faster when it's not that far away, but out of reach, without putting away your weapon, which saves some time. Also, Shelling doesn't require that much offensive abilities, like attack up and affinity up, so you easily have some spare slots for this skill.

The Kirin Beta legs are actually super meta. They are used on several meta bow builds that require Free Element, including the Taroth Arrow 'Thunder', which to this day retains its title as the strongest thunder bow in the game. That alone is enough to make the Kirin Leg Guards Beta a meta piece of armor. So much for a "honorable" mention, yee? Also the Luna chest piece is super meta for max deeps builds, of course it relies more on player skill to get the most out of it and in some match-ups it is simply not viable.

Is it a good idea to use different types of armor instead of the whole set. For example an anjanath helmet and a legiana torso armor etc. Just to balance out the resistance to every effect.

@@osirisavra1301 Bow has more meta build variation than any other weapon, and it's one of the only weapons that use stamina cap up. Yes Lunastra armor mostly sucks and there's only like 3 pieces anyone would ever use, all I'm saying is that the gamma coil is one of the few worth using, and I think it's better than the beta version he recommended in this video. And I think Empress is tied with Vaal Hazak for most useless gamma armor sets. I use 1 piece in niche situations for both those sets.

I agree with you,did not see the entire video so i miss the meaning of your comment. Personally i use the chest b cause is very good for peak performance builds (but no bow) and i like the Y gloves but sadly you can't fit it to any set cause drachen gloves OP. Vaal set is just sad,only the gloves are good for dragon bows,that's it.

19:44 "Focus used on greatswords". Honestly, I mained GS for a few hundred hours on the PS4 version and never really used focus outside of an AT Kushala set with Kush Gamma arms, where it just came with the arms that had more slots. Similarly, I main hammer on PC and never have used it for any hammer sets.

Eh as a Wide Gunlance main I feel like its impossible to play without Evade Extender, theres a lot of attacks that are impossible to avoid with regular hops and if you guard without Guard skill you lose a lot of momentum, I'm talking mostly about end game fights though. When monsters try to run you over, you can quickly chase them with extended hops so in a way its a DPS boost as well. Great video though, I share a lot of similar opinions on armor with you.

I used to think that but you only need to reverse hop most of the time, rarely do I sheathe to chase monsters. But I do like sneaking in 1 Evade Extender if I can afford it. Same with Switchaxe, you just have to learn to use the weapon's moveset to move around fast without needing EE.

In other words good offence is the best defence. More dmg means you kill monster faster which in return means that it will have less time to attack you and thus do less dmg. Just have enough defence to not be 1-2 shoted so you have time to heal mid fight.

@@collesque5045 Agreed. Additionally this (and MANY others) video is mostly HIS opinion NOT FACT, his ENTIRE meta approach is based on an opinion: GOTTA GO FAST! If you pay attention he says the following a lot "would never happen", "no one uses this/that" "don't/never bring/use..." when referring to some skill and armor combos. Why would I never do something SIMPLY because he says so? What if I like long fights? What if your goal is to NOT die? I appreciate when he explains the mechanics of the game, and does comparative analysis, which he does less and less with each video, He bases his meta on what speed runners use or don't use, that's not smart, that's being a sheep.

Call me old fashioned but I really want the old skill system back
