First video in 4K! Please let me know if it looks better, worse, etc. It's not recorded in 4K, but is upscaled to get RUclips to show it at a higher quality so hopefully that shows. (Though apparently it did mess up some graphics. WOMP) Also here's the link to the MHR: Sunbreak Buddy Guide I was referencing: docs.google.com/document/d/15jLe3JgzERuYeKOCZepLc1_zqd6ZI-ZZKGZxELTCc90/edit?usp=sharing
My best tips would be: - learn how to craft items like consumables or ammo with the radial menu ( especially during combat ) - always try to bring traps or smokebombs, not just for capturing the monsters but also to give you time to deal extra damage or recover yourself - always have farcasters in your inventory. In tricky situations during the fight you can’t always escape or travel to a camp, but using a farcaster instantly get’s you to the nearest camp during combat
The only thing i disagree with is the Radial menu being a requirement to learn. Only if you're in PC maybe, or a World player who's used to it would you really want to use it. Newbies and players on Switch tend to not use it as it's just frustrating to accidentally select items you didn't intentd to. I've played since Tri (wii) and mostly played hand-held going back to the vita games and gotten so used to flicking through the items during play without dropping a beat in combat that the radial menu is sort of redundant to me. There's probably alot of hand-held & older players who've gotten so good at item flicking that the Radial while useful, is a secondary option that you're not going to use with the exception with ranged weapons (if it makes it time saving, but since it's easier to knock that by accident it's still iffy if you're going to use it)
@@meikahidenoriBut like old style menu navigation for crafting is so much inferior to radial menu crafting In combat, don't believe me? just watch rise and world HBG/LBG Speedrun, nobody use menu crafting they all use radial menu even non ranged weapon speed run use radial menu to craft stuff like smoke bomb and ancients potion. also you don't flick them you change the settings to craft when clicking R3 button or Function key on pc completely remove shitty default flick input.
A tip for using the Argosy: buy raw meat in BULK, & cook it in the Motley Mix = easy dango tickets farm. I forgot vines were a thing. The way I scale walls is running up for a bit, wait for my avatar to auto jump off, hang in air, & then aim up to wirebug up the wall. Wire bugs are GREAT for traversal (dogs not needed).
I really appreciate this video you were very thorough without giving spoilers and told me a lot that I didn't already know so thank you. As a very much nuclear myself I only really have one tip and that is find a weapon that you enjoy. Monster Hunter is a game that tends to have a Meta, But if that's the only reason you pick a weapon you will soon get bored and possibly burn out earlier than you would otherwise find something you enjoy and that works for you
id say if you're unsure on dango choices, my go to is usually defender, medic, and moxie (Feet or Polisher are also good options if Moxie is not yet unlocked) Defender for less damage, Healer for the boosted healing, and Moxie for a sort of one time last resort EDIT: Also, later on, when you're in the DLC story an have the skewers, I HIGHLY suggest making one of the upgraded level dango be Bird Caller, so you can max up your buffs quickly.
For point #5. Just FYI, you can pull up the item radial menu and it will show the detailed map. On Xbox this is left bumper. If you switch use to R3, you will never accidentally use an item while doing so and allows you to always select the time you meant.
its on sale now for 20 bucks with sunbreak. perfect time to play to get ready before wilds if youve taken a break. im still working my way through the village quests.
Regarding #5 at 5:40, I have two sets of minimaps. When I hold the "item button" (L1 on PlayStation) it shows me permabuffers, but when I open up the start menu it shows me endemic life. Very useful!
After over 2500 hours in MHW I decided to give Rise a chance and oh boy it took me 4 tries to actually get into it. I can understand why people prematurely dislike the game . After learning the new mechanics and how actually the game plays I’m afraid that I can’t play differently anymore. It is way easier to solo than MHW so the region lock it’s not really a problem for veteran players. I didn’t have those tips when I started and I made a lot of mistakes so videos like this are very appreciated.
Considering all the hand-held title games have been more arcade-like it is a matter of preference what people prefer. Afterall if you're playing hand-held on a train to work (which is what they do in Japan) you don't want a hunt to fully stretch an hour if you only have ap short amount of time to play so going more arcade like works much better.
I was playing monster hunter freedom unite (3 I think) back then on psp… last month I was watching some ads on RUclips and I remembered all the good time I had back then with my lil bro then decide to play that game again. Since they are new versions out there, I’ve chosen this one… They are still a lot of similarities but I’m like a baby trying to walk again 🥲 With all the new features, I’ll give it a month try
@ I didn’t spend a penny to get this game… for now I just want something to play. I’ve never played MHW to start with… so I don’t care for doing a bad choice 😎
@@Jjonnnnnn the game is fun. My version is MH rise sunbreak. Compared to the old MHFU there is a lot of new things. And a lot of weapons. Gathering is now so easy and with the help of the dog you can travel easily. The downside of the game is that now we don’t pay too much attention to the environment and small details on the map… we even pay less attention to monsters attacks to know how to fight them next time (like you need to face a monster more time to get used to it) As for the over experience, I’ve like the game 😎😎😎🔥
You find more people online as you move into High and Master Rank, so your mileage may vary on how much you need to go out of your way and disable the region lock, at least in NA. Still, it's dumb that it works that way.
The game can be played without multiplayer, and yes, all the multiplayer missions until MR. I did so anyone can, i say so because im not the best player out there
Inventory tip you didnt have the claw or the talon (its been a while i think thats what they are) in your puoch. Its a permanent buff in every MH game.
Your stamina bar is depleting because your character is hungry, this is when you should eat rations or cooked meat. The chest at the start of the hunt will give you some rations for free, or, if you’ve used them all, you can hunt some small monsters for raw meat and cook it on your spit :)
No point in being rude about it. Monster Hunter notoriously frontloads all its mechanical information in a way that makes it easy for newcomers to miss stuff. Asking about stuff online is everyone's first step towards becoming a great hunter. Welcome to Monster Hunter, Reyner, hope you're out there making us proud.
@@stacy__fakename Thank you I`ve been playing for months now to the point where I understand pretty much the mechanics of the game and I`ve become a decent player.
That's only the case in World. Each monster has different rewards based on how you defeat them. A good example is Nargacuga. Narga Medulla is an important item that lets you craft weakness exploit decorations eventually. In order to farm the item you need to 1.) Cut the tail (highest % chance) 2.)Kill and Carve (Second Highest Chance) and 3.) Quest Reward (1% Chance). It can not be gotten via Capturing. Now there are also items that can only be gotten from from capturing. Using the same Decoration Rakna-Kadaki has an item that can only be gotten via broken parts, captures, and quest rewards. So in order to efficiantly farm a monster you need to do both depending on the material you want. Also, Capturing gives a random amount of rewards (1-3) while carving will always gives 3 (unless it's an elder or a special monster. Like gasimagorm gives 2 tail carves on top of its extra body carves)
@@Tomix4k dood... you for real? I watched the vid and rewatched just now, he's talking about a person who isn't playing games at all - a non gamer. MH is definitely not something people just start playing without playing a single game before and... THEY'RE MARKED ON THE MAP FROM THE START
I play with no mini map in most games. I toggle the map off in video games for immersion. The only time I needed to use a mini map was in Watch Dogs Legion when driving to a destination because I couldn't memorize London. I turn most of the HUD off in games. In MHR, my HUD is health & stamina gauge, meele weapon sharpness & wirebug on.
You aren’t going to for a while. Just take it day by day and things will fall into place. I’m just getting started on my MH journey and while it is a lot, I just focus on learning a little bit at a time
MHW is my first MH game and it took 7-10 hours over a span of weeks of playing off and on before it started to click for me. Now I'm 34 hours in and "I understand now" 😂 now I'm addicted and can't put it down. I'll either play Rise next or just jump into Wilds when that releases. Keep at it!

Or just mod the game so you don't run around like a clown after some birds every time.
Mod on console?@penultimania4295
scout flies? try playing one of the OG games where you would need a paintball to keep track of a monsters movements XD
Yup and they didn’t even show the monster spawn either, you had to memorize every Locale spawn for every monster.
I've always loved waving at the blimp.

Switch lobbies are always full even in 2024 and us high-level Players are always happy to help new players as long as you ask
The colorful ones are called permabuffers! The spiribugs are gold and give you extra points when you go near them. 😊
Yeah nobody asked btch.
hey, great video and cool to see someone referencing Xbox controls scheme!

about tip n6, dogs can also climb vines!
Remember you can also catch the monsters that saves some time.
Yes & no. There are items you can only get from carving. Ditto from trapping. You need to use both

No matter how hard I try I still suck I wanna get good at this seriously it’s so much fun ☹️
@ I’ve gotten a whole lot better sine I made that comment thank you so much brother
One huge question I have, please: Why do my stamina bar decreases over time to the point I can`t even move anymore? Is it for the buffers?
Your stamina bar is depleting because your character is hungry, this is when you should eat rations or cooked meat. The chest at the start of the hunt will give you some rations for free, or, if you’ve used them all, you can hunt some small monsters for raw meat and cook it on your spit :)

😂😅 right, I’m over here thinking the same

Same
Then play alone, simple.
Wow people actually need an arrow to guide them to a monster that is always visible on the map...
I recommend watching Razbuten's "What games are like for someone who doesn't play videogames".
Definitely changed my opinion on mechanics like these.

What's the point of this comment ? You want to say that some people are stupid ? And you are better than them because you don't need a game mechanic ?
Lol it's nice not having to look at the map as much🤷
I play with no mini map in most games. I toggle the map off in video games for immersion.
