MHW IB: 9★ A Visitor from Eorzea (Extreme) | Behemoth | Insect Glaive - 9'14"95 (TA Wiki Rules)

[@Syn_mh]

Awesome accomplishment! IG sub 10 TA Wiki 🤯 Your knowledge of Behemoth and mastery of IG shows nicely in this hunt. Congrats Kevin!

[@naviarangar794]

What a dance bro I am switching from gun lance to IG recently, this vid really helps🎉

[@jamirocy]

Just got to this fight after beating xeno... i cant do shit to this beast, is it possible to solo with only HR gear or should i just wait and get MR. only reason im asking with is because i like to clear every quest before i do the story quest then repeat once more quests come in (also want the cool looking insect glaive)

[@TheEighthJune]

🤳Congrats on the amazing time, glad you finally checked that off your bucket list.

[@Alternum]

Now I can finally go back to doing what I love most, farming afflicted monsters and melding talismans :)

[@Alternum]

Also, thank you for the idea to use PB1 - I don't think I would've thought of it had you not brought it up when I "revisited" Fatty.

[@nine2174]

Wow that was impressive, you are crazy

[@phyzyks]

Not only did you beat sub 10 you crushed it, congrats kebin

[@lucentaegis7491]

Kebin! You cut nearly a whole minute! Was this on stream? I wanted to try this as well, but I haven’t felt like running in a long time. 😭

[@Alternum]

Nah it wasn't on stream. Spontaneously decided to revisit Extremoth since I had a new idea for the set. Realized that 3Safi/2Fatty + polish was only good in a perfect run which is just unreasonable, so went back to 4p Fatty and used PB1 to account for the 75% crit in the first part of A1 and add more consistency. Also realized how busted coal is since defense down lasts longer than a coal proc, so tanking 1 meteor gives you 3 min of coal uptime. Did maybe 20-25 tries with this set before I got this time, several 10'3x"-4x" even after so long and a 10'03" right before I got this run.

[@hanajak]

Great fight and use of insect glaive. But, isn't the Extremoth fight supposed to end in the Lava Caverns? How did you get it to end up in Nergi's area?

[@Alternum]

Behemoth and Extremoth's routing is reliant on partbreaks that occur before the area 2 ecliptic. For Behemoth: 0 partbreaks means he'll move to Teo's area, 1 or more means he'll move to Nergi's. For Extremoth: less than 2 partbreaks means he'll move to Teo's area, 2 or more means he'll move to Nergi's. One small quirk with this is that breaking both horns only counts as one partbreak for this purpose (it's a relevant detail for AED snipe meme MR water CB runs of Extremoth). In this run, I broke both his arms before A2 ecliptic. My old 10'07 I link in the description goes to Teo's nest because I only broke one arm.

[@hanajak]

@@Alternum Oh wow I never knew that. That's such a good strategy to try to get him to go to Nergi's area. I feel bad because I thought runs that ended up in the crystal area were fake and actually normal Behemoth runs 😅. Thanks for the info!!

[@PhongDang-r3m]

Very impressive match. Please tell me what is that armor. I'm quite curious about it.

[@yumikoishikawa3271]

Dafaq the second area was basically a skip with all that topple

[@tri_tran]

🤳 Teach me how to play IG. Btw amazing run, Kevin 💪

[@aefsef4060]

Chad bihimit enjoyer. God bless this monster.

[@MitternachtHeizer]

Damn that's fast

[@rougeric87]

GGs Kevin!

[@randomdweeb8211]

How did you tenderize his arms so fast

[@Alternum]

Shaver jewel. Lets light weapons tenderize in one attack.

[@michelezuccaro3370]

What weapon is that

[@Alternum]

I show my set at the end of the run. Fatalis glaive with Stygian layered over it.

[@michelezuccaro3370]

@@Alternum Thanks man nice run continue like that

[@michelezuccaro3370]

I was still watching

[@1yu8omir]
