I'm curious why the thumbnail said "don't ruin your save." Nothing in this video is anything that could "ruin" your save. Waste your time? Sure. But so far there doesn't seem to be any permanent consequences for anything you do. If you mess something up, you can fix it. Ruining the save implies there's a system in place that if you do something wrong you can't go back and fix it without starting a new save.

[@FakeHeroFang]

Clickbaiting in a nutshell

[@spectrotemmie5984]

There's a glitch in the demo that allows you to bring an Anjanath egg. Or you're not supposed to, which ruins your save when you try to transfer your demo to the actual game. It says that your save is corrupted

8:50 I don't think we need to feel bad about releasing monsties via channelling even in the context of the game world.

[@tiredtortoise3396]

I found most of the Royal Monsters very manageable, even very early game. Tigrex's rock throw and two attacks while enraged are the only issue, and I still handled that with careful item use. Monoblos just requires a Hunting Horn or Sonic Bombs and judicious Double Attack use, and Gammoth is even easier - it only uses Power Attacks, so have a Speed Monstie with a cheap Speed move (and a backup of the same). Double Attack it relentlessly. When it uses Snow Slurp, stay alert. The next round that it does not target one of you with an attack line, mount up and do not use your Kinship Skill. If you use your Kinship Skill, it will just wait to use Snow Stomp until the next turn. If Snow Stomp hits you while you are mounted, you just get knocked off. The only way to lose a heart against Gammoth using this strategy is if you get knocked off and your monstie decides to use a Power or Technical attack with no Kinship, and you have nothing to switch to that can be ordered into a Speed attack.

If you use the glitch in demo to aquire a Anjanath, you will see in the ingame monsterpedia that anjanath has an absolutely huge stat difference from the low rank monsties.

The announcement of this game made me dive through the 3ds game for the first time. I loved it. Somethings were a bit annoying to get used to, the RPG style combat... I loved the game. Believe it or not, a Popo carried me through 70% of my playthrough. It was Popo that helped me with Rathy at the end too. LOL Popo' defense was immense. Rathy couldnt even scratch it. In fact. I completed that battle in 4 turns with Popo. But that was something I found out about the game. It was too easy to missed quests, and monsties. I think I did not befriend like 5 monsties, but once I did, I almost never used them. Between Popo and Rathy, I had all my bases covered. And I never used any of my characters skills. Monstie skills, yeah, those I used. But there was not much of a challenge even at HR with those two Monsties. I did get Kirin and had a heck of a lot of fun with that one. As the first monster hunter game I completed. I love the monstie designs. I hope some of my favs are usable in the second game. I mean c'mon. I know I am not the only one who wanted to tame a Banbaro, or a Mitzusune. But I got some favs in the 1st game. Popo and Rathy, obviously. Kirin, Nargacuga, and Yian Garuga.

Side quests, especially the basic Steak quest and Stone quest are especially good for getting free exp on your new members. And with that Steak quest there is a trick to make an infinite exp farm even if it is only bit by bit. You can do the Larinoth Trial Quest for quick 26 Exp per battle but you also get Raw Meat, which can then be used to do the Steak Quest for even more Exp. (This also can be used to make money as well, considering the Zenny from completing the quests but also the Larinoth Hide)

[@cameronbordeau850]

If you can force the early Royal monoblos back to its den it is by far one of the strongest monsters you can have all the way up through the deserts. And true to fighting any blos family monster it is a very predictable encounter. As long as you can tank the recoil from head-ons this fight is a breeze.

[@nickcampbell3812]

I'm on my 2nd playthrough of MHS2. I realize that at this point in the game on my first playthrough, I was generally higher level, but had much less knowledge. I was higher level because I was grinding in the demo for money and experience waiting for the game to release and I also remember that I used a glitch I learned about on KZbin before even leaving Hakolo. With that all being said, I actually beat both of the royal monsters first try in Akala (forgot how it was spelled) and I don't think I did on my other save. Having info on the monsters really helps. If the the Royal monster hit 1 of us, it would almost certainly take a heart. The best thing to do was to keep setting up double attacks to cancel the opponent's attack. The Tigrex was more difficult than the Monoblas, mostly because it seemed to have attacks that could hit you even if you just double attacked as well as the fact that Rock Shooter is typeless, so you don't know who the target is and you can't cancel the attack without a Kinship Skill. Monoblas was a bit dangerous for a few turns after it used ground dive because you can't do anything against it and you don't have access to somic bombs yet, but know I wonder if bomb barrels would have worked. I did end up getting both eggs from them though, just by using a paintball when they started drooling. As a personal challenge, I think I'll try to beat each royal before leaving the region.

Royal monsters provide an awesome challenge with an excellent reward as the monster itself. Paintballing successfully nets a 55 percent chance to retreat and if you have any level of the ‘den defender’ skill on your armor, this will be higher. Every time i came across a new one and get pulverised at first, then level up a bit and take it on with a focused team and defeating it before leaving to the next zone was so satisfying

[@HeraldOfOpera]

The main series has trained me to understand that High Rank exists and will quickly render everything in low rank obsolete. Sometimes there's even a third rank to do it all again! Meanwhile, you even point out yourself that sidequests are ubiquitous in the genre and this is actually on a LOWER scale; usually the absolute best equipment and such is locked behind a long chain of them!

"it is very easy to ignore the Quest Board for half an hour" ye... totally forgot the Questboard from the 4th to the 6th Hub and had like 50 quests to do xD

[@shades2all]

Not bad but I am playing it now and I can say this. Royals are usually worth getting an egg from and paintballs make the retreat chance about a coin flip if you destroy the parts (this will naturally happen if you win). The second is bottle caps for equipment are usually not worth it since a fully upgraded set or weapon will be better after the second area. The items and recipes are more than worth it but the equipment you get is only good for maybe half of the area before becoming obsolete since you can’t upgrade it until you go to the next area.

[@alexvazquez5087]

I know this video is 8 months old but just in case a new body picks this game up like I did. the royal monsters are well worth the farm monoblos is doable at 15 and you can farm his ass fast and get to 20 fairly quickly and at that point tigrex becomes more than doable and both being farmable is great for both gear and parts and monstie eggs. Word of advice on tigrex he switches to the rock move alot so when you have him make sure to give him another move over that one so he can stay more focused on his speed cause that shit will kill you when you need his ass hitting speed for the double attacks.

Are high rank monsties better than low rank ones in any other way than genes? Because genes can be transfered between monsties, so if they don't have differences in stats I absolutely will keep the ones I've hatched first and grown attached to and just transfer the new genes to them
