[MHFU] PSA: Dung Bombs

docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1EpMs8iducma2oRZaGvgjij_UhZQNHYn11EdtS7ex0X0/edit#gid=0&range=J1:J61
This may not be 100% accurate, I pulled the information from a source or two and haven't tested most of them myself. Feel free to let me know if you find any inaccuracies or a better list.
This video was started around January 2021. My original plan was to get footage and test the efficacy of... this item, on each monster. Unfortunately, with the main series and everything else, I was just too busy to work on this. I found it again recently and thought, hey, this should probably be put up as a small little guide thing. I made a clip of myself on how dung bombs work here: kzbin.infoUgkx6RmSQaFBprUlmu4gUVUdd5_4WUR9_gMZ
But that doesn't really beat having a specific video that actually shows up on my channel. Hopefully this helps y'all out and it's not annoying being so short etc.
If you're able to, emulation is a great way to play, I highly recommend you use PPSSPP: www.ppsspp.org/
And if you want to play multiplayer, go to Hunsterverse! hunstermonter.net/hunsterverse_new.php

It's nice it got added a real nice functionality in other MH games unlike this. No one would actually waste an inventory slot for that.

[@HeadHunter455]

Yeah haha, I mean, it has a use, but it's just too finnicky to be practical. Imagine if they never changed it 😳 I think maybe they maybe overestimated how useful it was and in later games figured to make it actually practical.

[@1212Deusexmachina]

@@HeadHunter455 it's actually good to not fight Rathalos in forest & hills area 9/10 as the monster will forget you as it will drink or eat. It helped me when I was first time playing MHF.

[@KnixxGaming1478]

Glad they made this item much more useful around 3rd gen (small monsters, Qurupeco, high rank random monster appearance)

[@HeadHunter455]

Same, though I never thought to use them on small monsters until reading some comments lol Not a bad idea, I just never did.

[@lcb6130]

i remember old threads online, where people would ask what they do and everyone said theyre basically useless LOL. Never seen them being successfully used in my life and ive been playing this game for a long time now. thanks for the video haha

[@HeadHunter455]

Yeah it took me a long time before I figured out they did anything haha, I don't remember when or how I figured out the eye thing, might have been on my own or from reading somewhere, but I figured this'd be good to know even as just a bit of trivia 😉

[@DCodedCrusader]

0:36 I love this reoccurring joke 🤣 Keep it up Hedd!

[@HeadHunter455]

😁😁 I'm glad you do! I love doin stuff like that 😜😜 Thanks for watching! 🙂

[@hubhikarilives]

Really appreciate these guides. I’ll put these in a playlist for when I finish P3 and need them

[@HeadHunter455]

Thanks! I appreciate you watching 😄 My channel has playlists too just in case you want to add more of different stuff to yours 🙂

Ooo..so, that's how Dungbombs function in MHFU! Thanks Heddy for this guide! 😁

[@HeadHunter455]

Yep, no problem! 😄 Thanks for watching 😊

[@JanusHoW]

I think I've used Dung Bombs maybe once or twice in Rise, when I was doing some fishing. The rest of the time, another monster showing up is usually no problem, if not outright beneficial. You can either Wyvern Ride it for free damage and materials, or - if you have already - they just promptly nope right out of there. And if I'm doing a mining run, there's usually enough time for me to grab the goods and nope out of there myself.

[@weakestenjoyer2844]

Oh boy! can't wait to gather materials from black gravios, Oh whats this?! a quest with 2 black gravios? ezpz, would be a shame if dung bombs didnt work and they just proceed to hang out in one area right? :)

[@HeadHunter455]

😭😭😭

[@bloodykenshiro8218]

Dung bombs are so finicky and bad in MHFU that their name sort of becomes self descriptive. I really hope that big MHFU mod patch that has been worked on for a while now manages to make dung bombs properly useful.

[@lightbrand_]

I noticed dung bombs’ effect or more accurately lack there of in the double green plessy quest, apparently it was mistranslated in French and therefore the description told me I only had to fight one, obviously when I got to it I noticed pretty quickly that there was more than one, I thought no problem and went back to get dung bombs What followed was only despair

[@HeadHunter455]

😭😭😭 Oof! Yeah, it's rough haha

[@mistersaraiva7401]

There is also the online myth that dung bombs only work on Khezu. I recall a live where you mentioned that you always get people telling that in the videos. I tested it, and Red Khezu attacks blindly its surrounds if the hunter stays inside the poo cloud, but normal Khezu ignores it completely. No idea how it can be useful (maybe gunners can keep shooting from inside the cloud?).

😳😳😳 mans really be spreaking the truth 😩😩😩

[@Joe_Mama.also_YTHandlessuckass]

I love how you described it as them being embarrassed that they smell instead of them leaving cause it smells bad over there and it just ain't worth it, it's honestly a pretty fair assessment imo lmao _"👉👈O///O I smell bad kyaa~"_

[@HeadHunter455]

lmao 😉

[@0sanitydokutah382]

3:13 "Well, at least he is honest lol"

[@HeadHunter455]

😄😄 I was originally planning on testing every monster, and getting footage for it, but that's a big undertaking that I didn't and still don't have time for 😖😖

[@SatyamAk]

Run away due to sheer embarrassment well I guess that's fair emotional damage is far more than physical damage which we do...

[@HeadHunter455]

Truue 😭

[@neemojenkins881]

Does the dung bombs works on Khezu since it can't see?

[@localpyromaniac.]

Read somewhere that it does not sure if its true tho

[@iliadx7495]

Its not, i already try it

[@HeadHunter455]

There's a bit of a rumor about that, but no it doesn't, like Iliad X said. It makes sense why people would think it does though, it'd be cool.

[@klodpraisor]

Catbrain thighs :flushed:

[@HeadHunter455]

😳

[@ehoraida5900]

That's why it doesn't do shit on Frontier monsters. Because it doesn't do shit AT ALL :) (pun not intended)

[@HeadHunter455]

haha oof, yeah

[@GreatKingIso]

crazy how it was like that in fu

[@HeadHunter455]

Right? lol, kinda silly tbh I pretty much never use it, but it's good to know about just in case.

[@Marx0w0]

W8 it works? I thought they forgot to code it or something

[@HeadHunter455]

😉😉 That's why this is kind of a PSA lol, I didn't know they did anything for the longest time.

[@outofpaintball9663]

the only time i actually use these dung bombs is where i have to fight the couple rath. as soon as I saw shadow coming in while fighting the other rath, I will immediately throw one below the shadow before it lands to make it flee cuz fighting both of them at the same time would be annoying do deal with. other than that i use dung to my farm, but then again you can always buy worms from granny for fertilisers.

[@HeadHunter455]

Yeah that's a good idea 🙂 Yeah, worms work, but it's pretty annoying to use without being able to speed up the game IMO >.

[@sekiro_robert]

It's really a "shitty" design choice the way they work 😏

[@HeadHunter455]

😉😉 This video is kinda crappy 👉😎👉

last time, i make so much Dung bomb.... and now im very dissapointed :(

[@HeadHunter455]

😩😩 Yeah, it's a bit unfortunate, much more useful in the later games >.

[@Psychoangel-d23]

I think it works on khezu the same way a flash bomb works for everyone else. But on the other hand... it´s khezu, you can do a no damage run on it easily as long as you dont slip due to the sheer drag of a fight that it is.

[@HeadHunter455]

It doesn't do anything on Khezu unfortunatey.

[@bahamutdragon1754]

The way they work is not quite how you think. There is a hidden value for area change that is set from about 0-2700. There is random variance per monster so lets just go with this number for ease of explanation. Monsters without awareness have this value set to 2659/2700. Monsters randomly gain 1 point around every minute out of combat. After which it resets to 2659. This is to keep monsters moving from area to area. A monster that enters combat with you by having the eye value appear has its area change value set to 0. It will slowly gain area change value as it takes damage, as it uses attacks and as time passes. Higher value attacks increase the area change value by larger amounts. This is why monsters like Rathalos often leave immediately after performing aerial fireballs and why Gravios often leaves after performing a beam sweep. How do dung bombs factor into this? In a really dumb way, dung bombs increase the transition counter by 10 per second that the monster stays within the cloud, but only if the dung bomb directly hit the monster and its not enraged. Interesting interactions: Elder dragons are immune to the effects of dung bombs. So is Khezu. Khezu has a unique mechanic where he actually is attracted to dung bombs. Throw one and he will attack the spot. Kushala can reflect them back onto a hunter while his wind barrier is active. Doing this is incredibly difficult. Congalala will respond to a dung bomb use by increasing the rate at which he throws feces or uses flatulence attacks.

[@HeadHunter455]

Okay............ 1. Does any of this change how I explained how it works in the video? 2. Do you have any proof for any of that? lol

[@bahamutdragon1754]

@@HeadHunter455 Did you really just delete my reply where I gave you an explanation and proof of how to perform it?
