What's the longest time you've spent on a Platinum Trophy?

[@renerivera9715]

The borderlands franchise

[@Venkullix]

mhw because ive got about 800 hours on it and im still not even halfway through the trophy list 😭in my defense i played for about 300 hours on pc as well so that was time i wasnt working towards trophies and i was already maybe 400 hours in by the time i realized i could actually get the plat and started focusing on it(also ive done new games multiple times because i keep not playing for a month or two...or more and when i come back im like "well damn guess i should new game so i can de-rust instead of going straight back into some of the hardest monsters in game!" and then i have to replay the entire story before i can work on any other trophies BUT im not doing that anymore lmfao)

For future reference, when capturing the rare endemic life, Petricanths (the fish) can be obtained next to Camp 8 in the Elder's Recess, so you can rotate between there and the Vale. Additionally, for the Downy Crake, the Master Rank event quest called Skyward Snipers guarantees a pack of them spawn on the back of a Grandfather Mantagrell.

Thanks as always!

[@mrquackadoodlemoo]

I remember when I grinded for the plat. Black Diablos' mini crown BY ITSELF took longer than any other monster's crown of any kind, with only Kushala's large crown coming close. Black Diablos' mini crown took me 3 straight weeks of hunting and 98 hunts before getting it. I spent quite literally the entirety of October 2019 grinding for Black Diablos investigations and then hunting her. It was awful and I'd do it again in an instant. (I got it first try, first hunt on an alt account which made me take a break but that was something else.)

[@DRAG0NSPIRIT10]

There are several quests with either guaranteed or high chances for crowns that can help tick them off. If you have Iceborne, G-Rank/Master rank quests have higher chances of crown monsters appearing. That's how I ended up finally getting some of the crowns I still needed in base World.

[@guibro3714]

Man, I have a tip for who wants to platinum a game, DON'T play that game focused on the trophies, it will ALWAYS make the experience even more exhausting.

[@findtheshiny]

True, some trophies can just be naturally exhausting even if you enjoy the game.

If you are planning on doing the iceborne trophy and you want to capture the special wild life over there remember to eat specific food to get an ability so they appear easier.

[@howard7997]

At 19:15, to get more investigations of a specific monster, you can follow it around the map and pick up it's tracks. It's a good way to also get better reward investigations. Doing this with tempered monsters will give a higher chance for investigations with purple rewards. Go to the research center filter for investigations of the monster you want and turn on the ones you want for that monster, turn off and delete ones you don't or ones with poor rewards. You can only have 75 active at a time but you can have up to 400 inactive, so you likely have ones for that monster that are inactive and not showing at the quest board.

[@findtheshiny]

I wish that was the case for Kushala Daora it was one of the few monsters I didn't get many investigations for because it just seems to sit around most of the time. I ended up resorting to the SOS method because I found it easier. I also found the Tailrider Safari could get you investigations (which I didn't mention in the video). Good information, hopefully someone who is going for the Platinum will see this!

[@IsaacHoffman-ze7bl]

I have 1 small crown and 2 large crowns to go I have 300 hours exactly at this point and I think people underestimate the event quests the get you 70% of the crowns (some have higher chance and not just guaranteed) so when I see people complain about crowns I am always confused because I have never had that much struggle compared to them, I think either they don’t know the events or don’t know the only way to get crowns is from investigations and/or events and some arena quests.

I'm honestly surprised that over a 10th of the players have that platinum. Like, even in popular shorter single-player games I usually see that percentage marker go down to the tenths or even hundredths.

[@findtheshiny]

A lot of factors like how many people own the game and go for the trophy I guess

[@LittleRedKuma]

My goal is to platinum this before Wilds arrives. I've been meaning to return to it for ages, and with Monster Hunter being one of my favourite franchises it make sense. However I am dreading the gold crowns, the only reason I brought the DLC was so that I could get better armour and weapons that would hopefully make the grind a bit easier for the base monsters.

[@ashmar999]

I was wondering how you would get the guild card achievement since servers have like 6 people tops and people rarely accept guild cards then I saw how you got it and felt cheesed since I got no friends. The same thing may work if I do it with someone who has auto accept on so I’ll give that a try.

[@findtheshiny]

Good luck, throughout my many SOS join and requests I didn't get many auto guild cards, I think it is because the setting is turned off by default. Perhaps sending a message saying you would like their guild cards for the trophy could do the trick?

[@Absreal99]

Just send everytime when you are playing with randoms everyone a guildcard.

[@findtheshiny]

Search if the monsters you are hunting have any increased odds in the quests. Make sure you're doing the investigations with the correct reward slots. You can use the measurement strategy if you don't want to defeat it each time. You can use SOS flares if you run out of investigations. There is not a lot to it other than just repeatedly hunting the same monster till you get the crown.

Do you have any specific tip for a Large Gold Crown Vaal Hazak?? I have been grinding tempered investigations from tempered Kirins but all I get are silver crowns ones :/

Do highrank investigations with Vaal Hazak. Doesnt need to be tempered just normal highrank Vaal Hazak. Do u play on PC or console? If youre playing on PC u could use a mod that lets u see the crowns of monsters. Makes it much more easier, still tedious.
