The Monster hunter want system is so nuts. I think every hunter can attest to hunting for hours on a monster to get one carve, but you hunt a monster you don't need anything from and you get Ruby's, plates, and The Declaration of independence

Fang farming gives me PTSD. It feels worse when you have a stack of gems on you too.

This happened to me when I was farming Lagombi for Lagombi Ear+. A fucking Lagombi took me days to get the one single Lagombi Ear for me to make my weapon.

No, America would never use a lance type weapon. They would use another gun. Or another 100,000 guns.

-Getting hit during your Shoryugeki will make it do double damage -Charging your hammer to level 3 before activating Impact Crater (activating the stance change into yellow hammer gives instant level 3 charge also) will yield more damage and TWO strong hits from the impacting slam. -Barroth Scalps are best farmed off low rank Barroth, not high rank ones like what you were doing, if you capture them youll have an even greater chance. -You are a boss :D

what gen got you hooked? For me it was 3U
