More people need to know about Now. It's so insanely fun

[@diloboi1822]

Wow sly! I watched you all the time when i was younger. Its nice to know you like monster hunter as well lol

[@Equizition21]

And insanely encouraging you to spend more money, probably almost the same amount as players do on Pokémon Go ➖️ remote raid passes Yeah Right 😂😂

[@rougeric87]

​@@Equizition21there's nothing about that in the game, for now at least. There's only the limited potions you could consider money grabbing but you get some everyday and your health regenerates passively. You don't need potions if you play well

[@_So_Random_]

yeah except we all need to go outside 😢

FUN FACT: This KZbinr cut and styled his hair specifically for the launch of Monster Hunter Now in honor of his favorite monster Kulu-Ya-Ku.

[@isaiahtatum]

I hope that's true

I would guess he styled his hair like the young redhead hunter Aiden from Monster Hunter World. Fits him pretty good I gotta say :D

Hey man, Great video! I really appreciate the production and effort in this, keep it up!

[@Yeen_Beans]

I enjoy the commitment you put in your vids, the edit of you jumping at the Great Girros had me laughing lmao

[@HikariYuushi]

"That's a Raph-inos." My guy you are embodying the Ace Cadet Aiden so much and I am living for it. XD From a dual blades main (SnS/Bow on Now), I wish you happy hunting!

[@kirtwoods]

I'm enjoying it, Starting to hit a halt on the 5* monsters, but My Youngest Daughter is a MH fan so she plays with me too

[@eXlamer]

Perfect time for a new video. The park looks nice, so many gathering points. It took me like HR50 to understand that with SnS I can actually start the combo from block without perfect dodge. 😅

[@DigitalDream09]

Absolutely brilliant work as ever sir! A true adventurer, a true hunter and most importantly- a true Gentleman ❤

[@matthalasz]

I love your videos ! Working on a MH Now review, dropping it soon !

[@lucidragon5260]

I wish I had friends to play with, but solo isn't too bad. I'm going to be borrowing my mom's bike this weekend and want to explore a few of the nearby parks. Thanks for sharing your adventure!

[@scrappymutt2047]

I beat the story today!! Love your content keep it up!

[@lsr444]

I hope they add a real Gathering Hub in the future. Like a park or something. Where you can access to a quest board and post your painted monster quest. Also a nice place to meet fellow monster hunter players.

[@1qaz209]

Keep up the content bro, the game needs good content creators 🤙🏽

[@AQsWrld]

Love your videos truly ❤

[@guycamole]

This was my experience. Such a fun game i just needed other hunters. I live in a middle sized city and i drove to all the big pogo community day places and NOTHING!!! Drove from 1-4 going to differnt places clearing outI didn't get to kill a diablos because I was still working on 4 star monsters and I never saw a single other person playing!!!

[@swolepepe1284]

nice of the Ace Cadet to make hunting videos for us

[@kiv2302]

I was around Milan two days ago and I found two hunters in the menu ready to join me against a Diablos I turn around after the battle and I see a dude with the game open right behind me, that felt so cool ahah

[@jebeboi1476]

I used to Help Hunters back then when i was HR30, always have this 2 Kids near my house always at around 4-5 PM they will be there and will go "Hunt with nearby Hunters" and i will join they will be shocked and be like "Where is this guy" ill be like pretending to water the plants in our terrace and once they ready ill join them and then go in so they dont see me. I always helped when they are near me they juat see my Name and they will go ready up as soon as possible and then a few days later the Monster Spawns like Large Monsters stopped spawning near my house. Used to have like 3-4 around me every reset now there is like 0-1 of them now so rest in peace my 2 fellow hunters. If you see this balimbing and LongManoka im Jebe3 and yes you guys should stop barking at my dog as they bark at you.

[@Kratos7560]

I find that not all pokestops (or portals if you play Ingress) have transitioned over to Now. It's become a bit of a problem for more rural areas where it is critical to have some nearby to get rarer resources. I hope they add more of said locations from other AR in rural areas soon.

[@tokytoky3787]

Habitats rotate every hour that’s why you don’t get all the PokéStops or portals all at once

[@TaqeGiantSword]

I love your shirt!! Where can i get one?

[@DarkBlqze77777]

Same here, a solo player, n rarely meets other hunter when playing too, so when the monster rank are 5⭐ i can only ignore them :'v cuz i'm not strong enough yet to solo them.. Also when you said You're on Fire Team, Me Too 😹🔥

[@thecringeprophet]

Thats an awesome thumbnail

[@ThunderChanter]

Playing solo has been fun, but the fact that theres 3 hunters that I know of in my state (including me in the count) makes me really nervous for future updates. They mentioned they want to add Elder Dragons, which I assume will be like raid battles for Go, but if they're meant to be done by groups am I just NOT gonna be able to participate in the content? Like with the Diablos event, even if I had met up with the other 2 hunters, Im not sure we had the DPS needed to actually bring one down in the time limit. Id love to see some form of online play, and also an option to like, filter out what your cat paintballs when they add mor monsters. Like me select Brute wyverns so it can hit only barroth or anja instead of 3 2 star pukei's

[@chrislewerercalcapone9385]

lol ya i am a little bit a head of you, i am only HR lvl 41. but that is ok i still love watching your videos any ways! :)

When youre viewing your map, pinch to zoom out so you can see an aerial view instead. You can see a little further

[@_So_Random_]

good job field team leader

[@carterromanofsky3579]

Outside of working on dodging attacks instead of eating em, definitely use that kulu head piece lock on ability to target monster parts like head and tails. 2 breaks will give you 2 extra mats on the reward screen effectively giving you 50% extra mats so it's like hunting 1.5 monsters each time for effectively little to no extra work.

[@pugnator2749]

A note for when you don't have Lock-On: you can use gyroscope aiming to target monster parts with melee. It's a bit more involved than pressing a button, but it's there!

[@lozardplaystoo]

theres also a screen lock or something if u turn ur phone portrait-upsidedown when putting it in ur pocket.

[@ArashiinStormdragon]

[@Zypherfox1]

Been playing since it launched in my area. The town over someone joind and invited me to hunts while at a fair. But in my town since it started iv only seen another player 3 times and they nvr accepted an invite nor requested an assist. 😢 [Forever alone face]

when you can see 4 star monster please slow down for a while, you will need all monster in 4star dont hit 5 star mosnter yet, just hold your quest progress until you upgrade all your equipment to grade 4 or 5

[@captainjimo]

Your phone vibrates when a large monster comes in range. I usual hold the phone upside-down so the screen is dark and check when it vibrates

[@danj6750]

Target hunting is the only way to play beyond 5*. Lets say you are trying to upgrade that barroth sword to grade 5. You'll need 4 rare mats that come from 4* or 5* barroth. And those barroth seem to have a drop rate of 25% or less. And once you unlock all the monsters, you may only see 1 barroth per desert or swamp square. The monster spawns now have more possible monsters. And it's probably 1-3 star not 4 or 5. You just got to target hunt them.

[@abeltotallynotdnsclientors5054]

SnS charge slash takes so long to charge up when done manually or from block, I wonder what bonus a perfect backhop does for the charge slash.

[@pugnator2749]

It instantly charges it to maximum.

Yes, Black Diablos was already here during the Diablos even last weekend. It was just VERY rare.

[@GbrielB]

it's sad cause when I enter in pokemon go I can find lot of peoples still playing and using their pokes in stadiuns, but in MH I play everyday, and since the launch I found just 1/2 people "close to me" but I don't find them in IRL, and they never accept to fight together

[@Superlisop]

Ive only seen others in the tab like there are 2 other hunters nearby 2 times since i started it... noone plays it here.

still stuck with the 5* Paolumu... Urgent Quest... 😭

[@tripniD]

there are 2 other players in my area... dont know who they are tho... we just partied during diablos event

[@rafaelrojas2954]

I don’t have anyone to play either but apparently I have 20 friends? Even though I never made an effort to get friend codes

[@MrAkarie]

I don’t no anyone to hunt with so I have no option to solo play.

[@MKPwrz]

I find random people who join my hunts I really wish I new who they were so I could friend them IRL. If I can't make friends thru Monster Hunter then I'll be damned making friends is impossible

[@Superlisop]

Im at 6 * now solo im gonna grind mooore

[@PeterMacansky]

[@ericcervantes7376]

I think a lot of people are missing the fact that the more hunters the more HP the monster has, so unless your getting carried everyone has to be more or less of equal strength So in many ways playing solo is easier because you only have to rely on your performance

[@asbelade138...joanofarc]

yes i agree and at some point the time to monster ratio will require people to play together

[@HuntersNotez]

Still goes WAY faster in my experience, but I have really only played with equally experienced hunters.

[@testedeinwissen8852]

its easier in groups because the monster is focusing only one player...its not that hard to understand

[@satriodwijayanto8081]

i think the most effective ratio is 2 players party. way easier than solo since one can do paralysis or poison, then the other can do DPS, and the monster's HP ain't that much either.

[@ericcervantes7376]

@@satriodwijayanto8081 someone did a dmg calculation of elemental dmg in MH now and it’s not like other MH games. It’s pretty either you get extra dmg or you don’t, so unless your raw is higher then your base plus elemental on a weapon with a monster that is weak to that element using an elemental weapon will yield more dmg.
