You've never fought a rathalos in the forest an hills on MHFU an it shows. Vespoids used to paralyze 80% of the time they stung you. You could be healing mid battle (you couldn't move an heal back then) an a vespoid will nonchalantly fly up an paralyze you. Quick as fuck too, with its quick little side dashes.

[@goddamnfish]

You can use glider mantle to actively ride into monsters, even without ledges. All you need to do is to put on your glider, use the clutch claw to latch on, let go and glide, you’ll be able to perform an aerial attack. And since glider mantle reinforces your ability to mount, with right skill sets, you can perform mounting multiple times per hunt. This is a very helpful tip, for someone like me who mains Gunlance.

[@ThatoneWeeb945]

You opened my eyes, and I never knew you could do that... Time to experiment!

[@oomphhfreak]

question is what is for you the right skills ? Master mounter ? ... the charm one ? or what :O ?

[@goddamnfish]

Rayy Yes, master mounter will do. (I’m not sure about what that skill was called in English version though.)

[@goddamnfish]

Sabrewolf Gaming I actually learnt this recently, after seeing a Korean hunter performing such action in front of me. It is really useful in Safi Jiva fight, since the mounting attack will go straight into the finishing moves, and thus creating a really nice knock down for everyone to unleash hell upon it.

[@goddamnfish]

I will try my best to explain this technique better (English is not my mother tongue...) 1. Put on your glider mantle. 2. Latch on to the monster with your claw. 3. Let go of the monster, and since you have your glider on, you should be gliding by now. 4. Perform an aerial attack, due to glider mantle reinforces your aerial moves, it should be a lot easier to mount the monsters. This move goes very well with the weapons which cannot perform jumping attack on their own, e.g. Gunlance, Greatsword...

[@Mr_Looc]

Before Iceborne: Deviljho ruins my hunts, I hate him so much! After Iceborne: Savage Deviljho is a true hero. He's saved us so many times from the most dangerous threats. Instead of bringing my Palico, I bring Deviljho along, he's simply the best!

[@joshuakim5240]

In my early Iceborne hunts, i hunted tempered monsters by just finding Savage Jho and leading him to the tempered monsters to kill it for me as i just moved under/behind my actual target. It was a hell of a lot quicker and easier than actually attempting to fight the tempered monster at that point.

@@thefez-cat So do you want the game to be easy and just spam flashpods all the time?

[@Elc22]

when the monster is not enraged, you can clutch claw it in the face and use the flashpod on it. it will knock it down, but you usually dont get a long down, only a moment. it does the job of keeping it out of the air for a while. Also, since you literally shove the flashpod in its eyeball, you get the maximum amount of stun from your flashpods. you cant just shoot a flash randomly in front of monsters anymore.

well had a gangbang a dodogama a azur rathalos and my target but b4 that my target had a fight with azur rathalos. turf war ran away the rathalos ignored me chased my target instead in next area 🤔 fighted again not a turf war but regular attacks then the rathalos leavt i managed to beat my target a bit until it moved to the central area of elder keep with the big crystals. wanted to catch it but who showed up dodogama and azur rathalos so i and the afterjoined mate with azur rathalos and dodogama ganged up on my target 😂

[@joshuakim5240]

I remember finding SnS to be a fun but overall not very effective weapon class. Then it got that Perfect Rush buff and my jaw hit the floor at seeing an SnS player absolutely manhandle a Zinogre like a champ while i awkwardly just booped its tail with DBs.

[@TheJosethemaster]

Has never been a bad weapon, but it was hard to get a good overall damage because you have to be very agresive with it (and its easier to do with other weapons, for more DPS) and had some strange things with it (like you can block but using the weapon well means that you shouldnt, focusing more on the low attack conmitement to evade, or using the i-frames of the back-hop) The perfect rush buff was still needed, thats for sure, and is a welcome one. Edit: Forgot to say, SnS is one of the weapons who got the better end of the stick with the clutch claw, helping to reach and break hard to hit parts, and the buff to the clawryuken allows SnS to tenderize parts very easily (with Safi, is two parts tenderized for the "price" of one)

[@kori228]

Jose Antonio I love how everyone calls it the Clawryuken despite the name meaning claw dragon fist like that lol. A more fitting term would be the replace the fist part with claw of the original term, but that's complicated. Clawryuken is much easier to say though.

[@randomnpc445]

@@TheJosethemaster Having them buff the claw uppercut is nice and all, but it's hard to aim in the moment. I usually save it for downed monsters and a lot of the time I _still_ miss the part I'm aiming for either by jumping and missing, or having it clutch onto a completely different part. The Dual Blades' tenderizing buff was way easier to implement into gameplay IMO.

[@davidgurarie6257]

It was actually an indirect nerf because they tried to make it so clutch clawing wouldn't be so easy and that people would actually use the clager mechanic to tenderizing such and temporal just made it way too easy AT velk have anti clutch claw AI that made anti temporal as well

[@sml7564]
