2 things worth mentioning: 1.only 1 bomb will get the bonus dmg of 3x the rest is doing regular dmg 2.later in g-rank a great sword/ charge blade will out dmg the fixed dmg of a bomb especially if the gs user is buffed up with migh pill etc.
I’ve remember watching this thinking I would never use status weapons. Here I am now 5 years later using sleep paralysis poison and blast weapons as my go to. Thank you for the inspiration.
hey @Arekkz Gaming, at 3:02 instead of kicking you can unsheathe the CB, do an X attack and immediately change into axe mode, you'll do a guard point which means that A) You won't take damage, B) you will charge your phials and C) a possible free hit on the monster :D
Thanks for the info! I discovered the shrouded nerscylla cb on my own and fell in love with it. The only thing is I need to make a chat option for notifying other players when the monsters fall asleep.
Here's some food for thought, since a monster gradually restores health while sleeping, consider bringing a poison weapon if you don't have/ aren't bringing another sleep weapon. The poison can reduce the healing during a sleep, if it gets poisoned before a sleep, as well as adding in a good amount of set damage over time.
And Velociprey, Ioprey, genprey, konchu, jaggia, altaroth, congalala, melynx, felyne, Aptonoth, Apceros, cephalos, zamite, slagtoth and other big monsters can wake up too.
ugh...don't use Barrel Bomb L, Use Large Barrel Bomb L+. "Don't hit it with the little bombs it's a waste" Yeah, a 300% damage difference IS noticable, so use the fucking L+. Also the Charge blade attack is a multi hit attack, so you are only getting a 2x boost on one part of the attack, the Large Barrel Bomb L+ will do more damage that that.
one more thing to do is combine the barrel bomb L's with scatter fish to turn them into L+ bombs, with bombarder armor skill the bombs get much stronger and then theres the felyne pyro skill for more power!
***** Actually the felyne pyro skill from what ive seen does not actually power up LBB+ it just converts LBB to LBB+. It does improves blast elements though. The bomb boost skill does add a boost of about 1.3x
No matter how you time it only the first hit that connects gets x2 (or in the case of a bomb x3). It is near impossible to time it perfectly anyways and the reason for all GS users to attempt to do it at the same time has to do with positioning. Just putting it out there. Even if you'd land four hits at the exact same time only one of those hits would get the damage bonus. It has been tested numerous times with bombs going of simultaneously.
Plesiperse Spike +, Bnahabra Hat (for style), Obituary thorax, Ioprey Vambraces, Tigrex Tassets Z, and Tetsucabra Greaves X. With the right charm and gems, it gives Status Atk +2, Trapmaster, Bombardier and Evasion 1. Sure the spike is weak in terms of sharpness and raw DPS, but being able to put out so many sleep bombs in one run (Bombardier gives 100% Combo success on barrel Combos) is hilariously broken. Just never use it in multiplayer. Ever. People apparently aren't used to having the monster go to sleep 10 times in a hunt...
ON3xKN1GHTx5TAND You should use elemental properties on a Gs and not Status properties. Status weapons are best for DB,IG, and occasionally the lance. As these require fast attacking and more hits per second dealing more status damage allowing for more effects. A great swords a bit slow for that.
Gol. D. Roger While I completely agree with that, there are certain exceptions. Status and elements scale with charges now and because of the quick side slap after rolling forward I can pretty much put something to sleep on command. Follow that up with some bombs and a level 3 wakeup and that sword gets faster kill times then a GS with an element.
Griswald yeah nah 400 sleep on a gs will still put a 140 to sleep twice and also allows you to set a trap when it wakes, sleep is arguably the best thing you can get on a gs
Charge blade is really good for this, SnS mode to put it to sleep, and this really strong attack in axe mode you used often in the video to wake it up. And the stun damage if you have a impact phial charge blade is easy to hit because it don't move during it sleep. And stun mean more time the monster can't move, so put it again to sleep and make a lot damage is easyer. And you can place a bomb that you can let explode with the attack. The bomb doesn't get the boost but it is still free damage.
Does still hold true in Generation? I still come across people who try to do a fully charged great sword swing to activated the bombs and attack at the same time.
These tips are much appreciated by me!! All that I have watched are A+!! Thank you, fellow gamer, for these videos! *Gamer since Atari & Colecovision* were born! Happy New Year 2016* Poppy in Georgia
There is in 99,9999999999999999999999% a difference when they hit, so in the most time is 1 attack the first that hit and that get the boost, the others aren't the hits that let the monster wake up, and this mean they don't get the boost.
I'm new to Monster Hunter, but when I saw that a particular sword and shield could deal sleep effects I was instantly intrigued. I made the blade and have had almost no trouble fighting monsters since. Now I know why.
Your the best ! I only played insect glaive but i want to have the Charge Blade too and you did a Video about a good charge blade that actually fits with my armor :) Thanks very much :D Keep up the good work ;)
I think if a charge-blader starts their phial overdrive (forgot the actual name lol) right after a greatword userstarts their charge to lvl 3, both should hit at the same time.
Does a monster's resistance to a status effect (after suffering it before) wear off after a while, like Mounting resistance? Or does it just become that much harder to put them asleep again no matter how long the fight lasts? I've been using the Nerscylla SnS and it's rare for me to even get a second sleep on anything by the time I kill it.
The threshold builds after a successful abnormal state is used. Each monster is different, probably the harder monsters have a high thresholds that get higher each time.
I'm pretty sure it's x3, but Wyverns Fire is a bit odd in that it's actually 4 hits in one, so only one hit gets the multiplier. Still, if ya don't have anything else, it's still better to get that off while it's safe and easy I guess.
Emishimaru - Sama Nope, only the first hit will get the boost. Even with multiple bombs detonating at the same time, only one with get boosted. Best thing you can do is stack as many bombs as possible anyways and then have a GS charge the monster on its weakest spot with somebody standing by to detonate the bombs with a kick while it gets up.
TheNewSanchez287 you're not hitting enough. A paralysed monster looks like a shock trapped monster. It could also be that the monster is resistant to paralysis. FYI, the best status weapons are dual blades and sword and shield, because of their fast-hitting capabilities, but you shouldn't have any problem with a lance.
Thanks :) really helpful tips there, also. I want to upgrade to the 'twistcrawl+' but I need 4 Dah'renstone, can I do the event quest where I fight the Dahren, mine his back for it and fail the quest since i'm not equipped well enough or do I have to succeed to keep items? Probably a stupid question but i'm new to the game
Two things im not too clear about in MH4U, the first is how sharpness affects damage, i know some monsters will only be hit properly if the sharpness is high enough but if that is not a concern, is there not extra damage? if it is, by how much? will a weapon with higher base damage but less sharpness be weaker? The second is when a weapon shows an element or status effect in grey, im not sure if this is activated by a skill, or set off when certain conditions are met, for example, having three essenses with the kinsect glaive.
I just avoid taking sleep into randoms entirely. Somehow, even in fucking g+, people still can't understand the sleep effect. I don't know what goes on through an IG users mind when he believes performing a mount is correct... Also, more and more people are kicking IG users in GQ rotations, thank god.
+FOUNDaHufflepuff The wyvern fire is actually divided into several different layers, so only one of the layers will get the damage buff. This renders this method of waking very outclassed, and only recommended if not in possession of bombs, or a GS /CB. As for the bombardier, sorry to tell you this, but that doesn't help with GL damage; if I recall correctly, the only skill that directly boosts the GL's shot damage is artillery.
+Kazu The Banana Thanks for that, but also on the subject of bombardier the description of it ingame literally says gunlance shots so i'm pretty sure it counts
+FOUNDaHufflepuff Ah, then I suppose it does. I've barely touched GL, and all the videos I've seen on it usually just include artillery in the set. (Maybe it provides a bigger boost?) Regardless it seems like we both learned something new today. Good on you and me, I guess? lol
+FOUNDaHufflepuff There are two kinds of Bombardier. The food skill and the armor skill. The food skill, as stated clearly in the description, boosts the damage of Gunlance shells, among other things. The armor skill however does not. The armor skill only boosts bomb damage, and blast damage, as in the status ailment. The armor skill you want for increased she'll damage is artillery. You probably know all this by now, but in case ya didn't.
you might mix up felyne bombadier and bombadier. artillery is the GL shot skill, bombadier is blast and bombs (and also 100% bomb combi rate) felyne bombadier as eating skill increses the shelling and wyvern shots
probably too late, but I can verify that sleep on an insect glaive is VERY good. the shrouded nerscylla glaive is great for sleep as long as your hitting consistently and not focusing on mounts, I would recommend attack hone to make up for its low damage. bombs can also be blown up with your pheromone shot, so if you mount then go in for the sleep, you'd usually get off the first sleep before the monster fully recovered from the mount.
emanalastas It acts as a status in that it builds up as you accumulate blast "damage". Every hit has a third chance of applying the blast build up, like any other status, and once a monster-specific threshold is reached it will explode on the part of the monster you hit. The damage the explosion does is fixed so it ignores defenses like bombs do. For most monsters it will do 100 which is a little bit better than a large barrel bomb but for bigger monsters it could do 200 or 300, and on Mohran, 500. Blast only does only 50 to Molten Tigrex but I still find the Teostra Sword and Shield usable against him. Should also be noted that while it does act as a status effect, status attack up skill won't be helpful. You want bomb boost from bombardier if you want to apply more blast.
SILVERBRO13 I would say emanalastas is right. Faster weapons get more hits so your chances of applying any status or elemental damage is higher. Any weapon can work it but fast weapons like sns and db are usually a lot more reliable for it. I would say sleep or paralysis aren't bad for hard hitters though since it's not often you can get two off for those anyway. But status and element damage are flat and don't scale to how strong an attack is so it's best with weapons that hit a lot. Like for me my sns has been doing a lot better at applying blast than my blast lances ever could just because the combos do so many more hits. The heavy hitting weapons do sort of compensate by having higher status values but it still won't apply as fast but that does make it workable.
yep. watched his explanation after I watched this but I would still like to hear from arekkz on what he's thoughts on blast and his explanation to it now.
Me and my friends try something cool and different we get the big bombs we have put them on the monsters head then we do wyvern fire all at the same time similar to how you us the ultra
Heres a great example for people of what a great sword can do to a monster mixed in with bombs. A great sword with 1905 attack has 396 raw damage. With the purple sharpness multiplier its 574 raw damage then if we add the crit multiplier it becomes 717 with the sleep bonus that becomes 1434 raw damage. Now lets add 6 Large Barrel Bomb +(150 raw dmage each =900) to that damage making it 2334 raw damage. Now if everyone had the bombardier skill we easily turn the 900 raw dmg of those bombs into 1170 raw damage + the 1434 raw damage of that greatsword = 2604 raw damage straight to the monsters health bar. Oh yeah and this isnt adding the multiplier of the monsters weak parts or defence.
+Isaac Gonzalez Challenger and Honed blade don't really affect shell damage. As for the damage, it'd certainly be a lot of damage and break whatever part they were aiming at, it'd still not be as much as a lvl3 charge damage x 2 + 8 large barrel bomb+s.
Sleep status can be useful on any weapon. I wouldn't suggest using your bug to detonate the bomb though, it may only hit one which will make the bombs go off out of sync; you'll get the 3x damage for the first bomb but not the second. If your bug is too fast it may also hit the monster before the bombs go off as well. Use either small barrel bombs or felvine bombs.
Also, if you're playing single player with felyne comrades/ palicos, once the bombs go off hit the monster with a felvine bomb. It will cause the monster to be "felvined" (you can tell from pink fumes that will come off of it) which will boost the palicos' accuracy with hitting the monster. Not sure if it also boosts damage but they help nonetheless.
+Cristian Ramos bnahabra razorwing is a g rank bnahabra item. The best way to get it is to do the bnahabra hunting quest in the Elder hall under G1. Using poison smoke bombs to kill the bnahabras.
Axel -_- zzZ There is an armor skill called "Awaken" and its skill point lvl is called FreeElement FreeElmt for short i think. It awakens hidden elements in weapons. There is also the Arcana skill which awakens weapons and boost their elemental properties. Good example of armors with these skills are the Legend of Zelda Armor Heros Armor has awaken. Then the Gogmazios armor has Arcana or "Enlightened blade" is the full name if i remember.
I just started using a Charge Blade, I'm still fairly new into the game even though I've played all the other MH games I haven't gotten far cause I kept getting distracted from playing. I usually use the Insect Glaive or Bow even though I'm out of practice with the Bow. I'm really glad you put this info down and also the one on upgrading the Kinsect in another vid.
+Lars Heijman Charge to red, then move all the charge to your shield. You do this by X+Y, & when the energy crackling animation begins, you press R button to move it all into the shield.
Lars Heijman Attack until all phials are full & red. Change to axe mode, press X & Y to initiate the attack animation, & press R to move it all into your shield. You'll notice your shield is now glowing red & you can charge even more. When you've charge some more & all phials are full & red & your shield is red as well, you can perform the ultra with X & Y from axe mode. It's a bit hard to explain, but once you move everything into your shield you should understand.
Way too often, I'll be playing online and when the monster runs off to go rest, the first person to get there does like the weakest attack ever -- or like a weak jumping attack or something before I can get there and pop it in the face with a Super or Ultra Burst.... It ticks me off so bad that I think I made a chat command for "Fall back!" but I might need to make another one that is a bit more clear :T
BaneKaikyo Perhaps while in the Gathering Hall you can establish that to your teammates? Not that I'm defending them or anything; it should be pretty obvious to leave a sleeping monster to the hard-hitters. XD
Ploppman More damage overall, but split into multiple hits. A lvl3 charge from a greatsword is still the fattest single hit to get on a sleeping monster.
the fat hit at the end of that attack does less damage than a lvl3 charged greatsword but in total the attack does more damage with the first swing. Is that how it works? Edit: dunno why I thought at is spelled with 2 Ts.
Because the fat hit isn't just one fat hit. It's multiple tiny hits. Like a shrapnel bombs. And no, even if you wake a sleeping monster with the upswing from the CB Ultra, the total damage will still be lower than waking it with a Greatsword.
Ploppman Great swords do far more damage with the proper set up. Heres a great example for people of what a great sword can do to a monster mixed in with bombs. A great sword with 1905 attack has 396 raw damage. With the purple sharpness multiplier its 574 raw damage then if we add the crit multiplier it becomes 717 with the sleep bonus that becomes 1434 raw damage. Now lets add 6 Large Barrel Bomb +(150 raw dmage each =900) to that damage making it 2334 raw damage. Now if everyone had the bombardier skill we easily turn the 900 raw dmg of those bombs into 1170 raw damage + the 1434 raw damage of that greatsword = 2604 raw damage straight to the monsters health bar. Oh yeah and this isnt adding the multiplier of the monsters weak parts or defence. Also thats not including the great swords charged attack multipliers. If i remember right the multipliers are 1st charge 1.1X 2nd charge 1.2x and 3rd charge 1.3x. So that would come to 3034.
Savian Gacho Point blank should be effective as well. No different than seeing multiple GS users charge at the same time or several bombs going off at the same time.
jayvir6 Its totally different. Only one of your shrapnel is gonna wake it so for example sake lets say your wyvern fire does 200 damage (4 hits at 50 per hit) 50 x 200% sleep damage for the first hit plus 150 at normal damage (for the other 3 hits that dont do sleep damage) A greatsword is one hit so even if the greatsword is only hitting for 100 at charge 3 (highly unlikely but for examples sake) this is still 100x 200% which is more than your 50 x 200% Make sense now? you still have time to sneak a wyvern fire in once your GS or bombs have been detonated so reserve it for then.

Is dual blades Jungle Maracas with Sleep 100 not good enough to make Red Khezu sleep?? Even with Status Atk+1??
I’ve remember watching this thinking I would never use status weapons. Here I am now 5 years later using sleep paralysis poison and blast weapons as my go to. Thank you for the inspiration.

When I try to sleep bomb, I tell my party to stop attacking but they all continue and wake it up.
H Platapus thats why i never ever ever sleep bomb online
True
H Platapus That's why you need someone you know to play the game with.
Which I dont
git gud and play solo
And with this video, I finally learned how you use Barrel Bombs...after about 150 hours of Monster Hunter spent.
I've been slowly working my way towards the Schwarzschlum ever since I knew what it did. Glad to see I'm not wasting my time.
What happens when you fight khezu he doesn't have a song so...........
Akarui30 When a monster has noticed you in the area a red eyeball will appear next to your names. If the monster falls asleep the eyeballs dissapear.
Khezu doesnt have eyes so thats why...its different from another monster
Thanks for the info! I discovered the shrouded nerscylla cb on my own and fell in love with it. The only thing is I need to make a chat option for notifying other players when the monsters fall asleep.
Here's some food for thought, since a monster gradually restores health while sleeping, consider bringing a poison weapon if you don't have/ aren't bringing another sleep weapon. The poison can reduce the healing during a sleep, if it gets poisoned before a sleep, as well as adding in a good amount of set damage over time.
I always wondered how the sleep mechanics exactly worked in this game. Thanks a lot; can't wait to try this out.
CHARGE BLADE FTW!
also make sure the area you're fighting in is clear of mob monsters like bullfangos or vesploids
Benjamin Tam In 4u we no longer have bullfangos sadly. Just rhenoplos jaggie and bnahabra lol
And Velociprey, Ioprey, genprey, konchu, jaggia, altaroth, congalala, melynx, felyne, Aptonoth, Apceros, cephalos, zamite, slagtoth and other big monsters can wake up too.
You friends with GaijinHunter?

Sure the spike is weak in terms of sharpness and raw DPS, but being able to put out so many sleep bombs in one run (Bombardier gives 100% Combo success on barrel Combos) is hilariously broken.
Just never use it in multiplayer.
Ever.
People apparently aren't used to having the monster go to sleep 10 times in a hunt...
Love sleep weapons, I think I won monster hunter when I got my last relic weapon. Its a GS with 1728 raw, 400 sleep, natural purple, with 3 slots :o
ON3xKN1GHTx5TAND You should use elemental properties on a Gs and not Status properties. Status weapons are best for DB,IG, and occasionally the lance. As these require fast attacking and more hits per second dealing more status damage allowing for more effects. A great swords a bit slow for that.

Griswald yeah nah 400 sleep on a gs will still put a 140 to sleep twice and also allows you to set a trap when it wakes, sleep is arguably the best thing you can get on a gs
Ik it's overpowered but they should make a Para poison dual blades
Nicholas Rodriguez That would be the most beautiful thing ever
What about Blast Sleep? That would be over powered...
I. Chrome Not really. What happens when the blastblight goes off after the monster went to sleep?
Charge blade is really good for this, SnS mode to put it to sleep, and this really strong attack in axe mode you used often in the video to wake it up. And the stun damage if you have a impact phial charge blade is easy to hit because it don't move during it sleep.

And you can place a bomb that you can let explode with the attack. The bomb doesn't get the boost but it is still free damage.

Will you do a Poison Video and show things like shutting down abilities of an Elder Dragon?
When you synchronize your moves together, does that mean you all get the bonus or whoever touches the enemy first?
There is in 99,9999999999999999999999% a difference when they hit, so in the most time is 1 attack the first that hit and that get the boost, the others aren't the hits that let the monster wake up, and this mean they don't get the boost.
Is there any particular reason you don't have the upgrade for that charge blade? Just curious *****
Is dual blades Jungle Maracas with Sleep 100 not good enough to make Red Khezu sleep?? Even with Status Atk+1??
Nice video, very informative, but y u no use large+ bombs instead?
Can a switch axe have sleep ailment? If not would the charge blade be the best weapon?
I'm new to Monster Hunter, but when I saw that a particular sword and shield could deal sleep effects I was instantly intrigued. I made the blade and have had almost no trouble fighting monsters since. Now I know why.
Huh, So the monster's asleep You put the bombs around him and then use the ultra-charge attack it would work or not?
3:02 why did you kick the bomb? lol

Does sleep bombing works the same way as always: 2, 4, 6 or 8 bombs detonated at the same time does 150 x 8 x 3?
Emishimaru - Sama Nope, only the first hit will get the boost. Even with multiple bombs detonating at the same time, only one with get boosted. Best thing you can do is stack as many bombs as possible anyways and then have a GS charge the monster on its weakest spot with somebody standing by to detonate the bombs with a kick while it gets up.
5:09 Fucking REKT!
Awesome video mate, this helps a lot.
How does the paralysis effect work? Using the najarala lance and I love it but don't notice the paralysis effect, am I just not hitting enough?
TheNewSanchez287 you're not hitting enough. A paralysed monster looks like a shock trapped monster. It could also be that the monster is resistant to paralysis. FYI, the best status weapons are dual blades and sword and shield, because of their fast-hitting capabilities, but you shouldn't have any problem with a lance.

Probably a stupid question but i'm new to the game
yeah it is if I remember correctly but surely it still has the normal drops and ores?
TheNewSanchez287 Okay, so today I managed to paralyze a frenzied tigrex, the effect is obvious now that ive seen it!!! so effective
Two things im not too clear about in MH4U, the first is how sharpness affects damage, i know some monsters will only be hit properly if the sharpness is high enough but if that is not a concern, is there not extra damage? if it is, by how much? will a weapon with higher base damage but less sharpness be weaker? The second is when a weapon shows an element or status effect in grey, im not sure if this is activated by a skill, or set off when certain conditions are met, for example, having three essenses with the kinsect glaive.

probably too late, but I can verify that sleep on an insect glaive is VERY good. the shrouded nerscylla glaive is great for sleep as long as your hitting consistently and not focusing on mounts, I would recommend attack hone to make up for its low damage. bombs can also be blown up with your pheromone shot, so if you mount then go in for the sleep, you'd usually get off the first sleep before the monster fully recovered from the mount.
It's never been too late and thanks for responding but i forgot why i asked this question ._.
well, if you want another person to sleep bomb with (assuming your still playing MH4U)

+ZeroSurvivalRate Thank you for offering but I don't have nintendo to play MH4U :)
Supp Arekkz, nice video. Can you do Blast next? I'm new too MH and people keep telling me that blast is op. How does it work? How strong is it?
emanalastas It acts as a status in that it builds up as you accumulate blast "damage". Every hit has a third chance of applying the blast build up, like any other status, and once a monster-specific threshold is reached it will explode on the part of the monster you hit. The damage the explosion does is fixed so it ignores defenses like bombs do. For most monsters it will do 100 which is a little bit better than a large barrel bomb but for bigger monsters it could do 200 or 300, and on Mohran, 500. Blast only does only 50 to Molten Tigrex but I still find the Teostra Sword and Shield usable against him.
Should also be noted that while it does act as a status effect, status attack up skill won't be helpful. You want bomb boost from bombardier if you want to apply more blast.
Should I get it for my charge blade? I've head thats its only good for fast attacking weapons like sns and db, but i find the cb for usable for me.
SILVERBRO13 I would say emanalastas is right. Faster weapons get more hits so your chances of applying any status or elemental damage is higher. Any weapon can work it but fast weapons like sns and db are usually a lot more reliable for it.
I would say sleep or paralysis aren't bad for hard hitters though since it's not often you can get two off for those anyway. But status and element damage are flat and don't scale to how strong an attack is so it's best with weapons that hit a lot.
Like for me my sns has been doing a lot better at applying blast than my blast lances ever could just because the combos do so many more hits. The heavy hitting weapons do sort of compensate by having higher status values but it still won't apply as fast but that does make it workable.
yep. watched his explanation after I watched this but I would still like to hear from arekkz on what he's thoughts on blast and his explanation to it now.
Have you ever slept a monster before, then have it wake up (After Damage) to have it just plain ignore you? (I.E: Walking away?)
Me and my friends try something cool and different we get the big bombs we have put them on the monsters head then we do wyvern fire all at the same time similar to how you us the ultra
you love your charge blades(cant blame you, they're my fav from the start)
Heres a great example for people of what a great sword can do to a monster mixed in with bombs.
A great sword with 1905 attack has 396 raw damage. With the purple sharpness multiplier its 574 raw damage then if we add the crit multiplier it becomes 717 with the sleep bonus that becomes 1434 raw damage. Now lets add 6 Large Barrel Bomb +(150 raw dmage each =900) to that damage making it 2334 raw damage. Now if everyone had the bombardier skill we easily turn the 900 raw dmg of those bombs into 1170 raw damage + the 1434 raw damage of that greatsword = 2604 raw damage straight to the monsters health bar. Oh yeah and this isnt adding the multiplier of the monsters weak parts or defence.
What about if everyone had a challenger 2 honed blade and artillery god set used 4 ultras/ wyvern fire
+Isaac Gonzalez Challenger and Honed blade don't really affect shell damage. As for the damage, it'd certainly be a lot of damage and break whatever part they were aiming at, it'd still not be as much as a lvl3 charge damage x 2 + 8 large barrel bomb+s.
Uh, I don't think the damage from the sword would be going, straight to the health bar, as you put it.
That cb made everything easier, along with the akantor one
im kinda late in playing MH4, so sleep status is not good if your using insect glaive?
Yes, it can be, you can use the bug to detonate bombs.
Sleep status can be useful on any weapon. I wouldn't suggest using your bug to detonate the bomb though, it may only hit one which will make the bombs go off out of sync; you'll get the 3x damage for the first bomb but not the second. If your bug is too fast it may also hit the monster before the bombs go off as well. Use either small barrel bombs or felvine bombs.
Also, if you're playing single player with felyne comrades/ palicos, once the bombs go off hit the monster with a felvine bomb. It will cause the monster to be "felvined" (you can tell from pink fumes that will come off of it) which will boost the palicos' accuracy with hitting the monster. Not sure if it also boosts damage but they help nonetheless.
What charge blade does he use?
How do you get bnahabra razorwing to make schwarzschlm
+Cristian Ramos bnahabra razorwing is a g rank bnahabra item. The best way to get it is to do the bnahabra hunting quest in the Elder hall under G1. Using poison smoke bombs to kill the bnahabras.
I have a weapon that does sleep damage but it dosent work. Someone told me i need to "awaken" for it to work. How do i awaken this status effect.
Axel -_- zzZ There is an armor skill called "Awaken" and its skill point lvl is called FreeElement FreeElmt for short i think. It awakens hidden elements in weapons. There is also the Arcana skill which awakens weapons and boost their elemental properties. Good example of armors with these skills are the Legend of Zelda Armor Heros Armor has awaken. Then the Gogmazios armor has Arcana or "Enlightened blade" is the full name if i remember.
Gol. D. Roger thx man. I eventually found all that out but it took me a while. i still greatly apreciate the response!
what is the number next to the sleep icon on weapons tho?
Cyrrile Carbonell Fckin' casuls....
does the x3 multiplier count for gun lance wyvernfire
no, 2x, its still bad because wyvern is a multiple hit attack, not one strong hit. with GL, you are better of with bombs
Can you show us how to drug a monster in monster hunter 4 ultimate
What weapon are you using. It looks Awsome
OBAMANIQUA!!!
You forgot to mention that using your weapon over a barrel bombs is only justified if you have a strong end game weapon. Weak GS or CB won't make it.
Does sleep affect the Dragonator's damage?
If so, that HAS to hurt.... Right Gogmazi-shut up hunter!
I just started using a Charge Blade, I'm still fairly new into the game even though I've played all the other MH games I haven't gotten far cause I kept getting distracted from playing. I usually use the Insect Glaive or Bow even though I'm out of practice with the Bow. I'm really glad you put this info down and also the one on upgrading the Kinsect in another vid.
Do monsters regenerate HP during sleep?
AceAttorney Yes slowly but they do.
AceAttorney Yes, but it's not as concerning as if the monster ran away to sleep.
so it's normal to have a 100+ points of sleep on a weapon (Insect Glaive)
There was so much I didn't kno about monster hunter
how do you do the ultra? whenever i do it, it just uses 1 phial
+Lars Heijman Charge to red, then move all the charge to your shield. You do this by X+Y, & when the energy crackling animation begins, you press R button to move it all into the shield.
So..... attack till it's full and red or empty and red? Then press X and Y (not R and A?) And then press R?
Lars Heijman Attack until all phials are full & red. Change to axe mode, press X & Y to initiate the attack animation, & press R to move it all into your shield.
You'll notice your shield is now glowing red & you can charge even more. When you've charge some more & all phials are full & red & your shield is red as well, you can perform the ultra with X & Y from axe mode.
It's a bit hard to explain, but once you move everything into your shield you should understand.
1 now i get why people find cb hard to learn and confusing.. 2 are you sure that u don't confuse x+y with x+a?
OMG woops X + A. Sorry
Way too often, I'll be playing online and when the monster runs off to go rest, the first person to get there does like the weakest attack ever -- or like a weak jumping attack or something before I can get there and pop it in the face with a Super or Ultra Burst.... It ticks me off so bad that I think I made a chat command for "Fall back!" but I might need to make another one that is a bit more clear :T
BaneKaikyo Perhaps while in the Gathering Hall you can establish that to your teammates? Not that I'm defending them or anything; it should be pretty obvious to leave a sleeping monster to the hard-hitters. XD
Yes it should be obvious, I shouldn't have to explain it... And typing is so bloody hard....
Nice!.. now tutorial to farming mega dash juices plz
Kill a bunch of Gypceros and combine its dash extract with well done steak and you SHOULD get it unless you have the worst luck.
+London Musgrove or no combo books
That is a good idea
How do you do the map pin thing?
Kevin Fernandez You open the menu and press X :)
It wouldn`t be a 200% bonus, it would be 200% damage total. It would be a 100% damage bonus. (waking hit damage bonus)
It's called the Super Amp, not an Ultra. The normal move is called the Amp
How you make that weapon
can I just say: That charge blade attack looks amazing. (my guess is it does way more damage than a fully charged great sword hit.)
Ploppman More damage overall, but split into multiple hits. A lvl3 charge from a greatsword is still the fattest single hit to get on a sleeping monster.
the fat hit at the end of that attack does less damage than a lvl3 charged greatsword but in total the attack does more damage with the first swing. Is that how it works?
Edit: dunno why I thought at is spelled with 2 Ts.
Because the fat hit isn't just one fat hit. It's multiple tiny hits. Like a shrapnel bombs. And no, even if you wake a sleeping monster with the upswing from the CB Ultra, the total damage will still be lower than waking it with a Greatsword.
Ploppman Great swords do far more damage with the proper set up.
Heres a great example for people of what a great sword can do to a monster mixed in with bombs.
A great sword with 1905 attack has 396 raw damage. With the purple sharpness multiplier its 574 raw damage then if we add the crit multiplier it becomes 717 with the sleep bonus that becomes 1434 raw damage. Now lets add 6 Large Barrel Bomb +(150 raw dmage each =900) to that damage making it 2334 raw damage. Now if everyone had the bombardier skill we easily turn the 900 raw dmg of those bombs into 1170 raw damage + the 1434 raw damage of that greatsword = 2604 raw damage straight to the monsters health bar. Oh yeah and this isnt adding the multiplier of the monsters weak parts or defence. Also thats not including the great swords charged attack multipliers. If i remember right the multipliers are 1st charge 1.1X 2nd charge 1.2x and 3rd charge 1.3x. So that would come to 3034.
Is dual blades Jungle Maracas with Sleep 100 not good enough to make Red Khezu sleep?? Even with Status Atk+1??
How you get the cb
Tutorial on awakening weapon elements??
+Danodan94 thanks and you play monster hunter?
First, also great job on all of ur videos,keep up the good work
Very nice
does that work on monster hunter freedom unite
+João Gaming I'm pretty sure the sleep-damage-multiplier is in that game, can check the wiki on it I think.
+Zach Mercer thank u
wait which monsters have a sleep sake again

I'm a Gunlance user and I'm always the one to use Wyvern Fire to hit the sleeping enemy. Tons o' damage.
jayvir6 Not really because wyverns fire is 4 shrapnel, and it has to be the first hit to do 2x more damage.
Savian Gacho Point blank should be effective as well. No different than seeing multiple GS users charge at the same time or several bombs going off at the same time.
jayvir6 Its totally different.
Only one of your shrapnel is gonna wake it so for example sake lets say your wyvern fire does 200 damage (4 hits at 50 per hit) 50 x 200% sleep damage for the first hit plus 150 at normal damage (for the other 3 hits that dont do sleep damage)
A greatsword is one hit so even if the greatsword is only hitting for 100 at charge 3 (highly unlikely but for examples sake) this is still 100x 200% which is more than your 50 x 200%
Make sense now?
you still have time to sneak a wyvern fire in once your GS or bombs have been detonated so reserve it for then.
Wyvern fire actually gets 3x damage brava use it is technically a bomb with a set amount of damage.
The Gaming Box Pretty sure it's counted as a melee hit. Give link to proof, otherwise i'll just dismiss what you said.
Ok, i just need a DB relic with sleep status and good raw and i'll start sleep bombing.
very cool!
Gotta get a Nercylla blade now.
1:42 you charge your shield IN sword and shield mode! HOW!??
Before you Finnish charge attack, R.
What about Longswords in terms of damage? *****
DaCaLsTa7777 the longsword mmultiplier is 3.3 so with a longsword that has say 1000 attk its raw damage would be 1000 divided by 3.3 = 303 raw damage.
Please make a tutorial about how to make bombs
You can buy them from the store, I don't know when you can though.
Don Tran Yes, but it's usually cheaper to buy the barrels and make them yourself.
AnTiCs53 look up the recipe in kiranico, aquire ingredients, ????, profit!
Arekkz you should do another stream highlights and also #sockslancebro
Super helpfull
kezu has no music
Thx for all the awesome tutorials Like and Abo is yours :D
