TheGameconomist I'm not sure if there's anything you can do after posting, but there's a typo at 5:47 - "Know how [M]any*..." Lol, sorry, I just had to point it out
XD so true. Just like the Guild is keeping all the Gems and lets us kill 50+ Elderdragens. Oh right you kill them for Gems here you go 1 Gem my Hunter.
This is one of the few times I see a RUclipsr put in the work and do their research to make a well thought out video with diagrams and explanations. Personally I love this not just the half fast guessing most RUclipsrs do. Love the video and keep up the good work.
Worth mentioning that the step counter for decoration sniping from the Elder Melder advances on a set repeating pattern of 1, 1, 2. If you're 2 steps away from the decoration you want from her but your next hunt overshoots it, what you need to do is instead do a basic low tier meld to advance the step counter by one (it can be for only one decoration return as well) which will put you forward only one step so your next advanced meld should be for the deco you were sniping.
The current elder melder functionality is useless, no-one in their right mind is going to blind roll for a tiny chance at a good decoration from a set loot table. You should be able to meld a decoration of your choice using your current deco's as the base material, maybe at a 3 for 1 cost for rarity 8's, 6 for 1 for 7's and a boat load of them for 6's. I'm now using save scumming cos I dont have an infinite amount of playtime to get the deco's I want, especially for crucial ones like mighty bow (Im a bow main so yeah) which I was lucky enough to get after about 40 rolls. If there was a fair way to get the one's you want there would be no need for this method.
I agree with you. Took down a 30 minute faint once and you fail tempered Vaal Hazak with 4 rewards slots and got absolutely NOTHING good. It was insanely frustrating. I might consider doing this...
it's all rng.. i got att, crit boost, mightybow, power shot from elder melder... and yes i still farm elder dragons alot. once you know how to do it, it's around 3-7 mins/ elder dragon.
I think it’s perfectly fine. What else are people supposed to do with 15 extra slugger gems? I hear ya though, it takes a while to get some gems and some people can’t put in 500+ hours into the game. I’m a bow main too and luckily I got mighty bow fairly early on. Same with protective polish, minds eye, normal shot and power shot. Still looking for handicraft for my melee builds!
astartespete I can tell monster hunter world is your first monster hunter game lol these games require a lot of time to be top tier you should've taken that into account before you bought the game then complain about something that is common knowledge
I used to have a negative mindset on save scumming, but then I grew up and realized that all video games are is entertainment, and some people achieve their entertainment differently than others. Some like to play how the game is intended to play, while others take advantage of loopholes. Doesn't make either one wrong or right, just different playstyles. :)
EXACTLY. The problem is you get people who identify so strongly with the game, and get all their sense of worth from it, that they forget there's a real world out there, and its okay to just finish grinding a meaningless score in a game you wont be playing in a year or two.
Im not a gamedesigner but I recall that there is a saying: people will always find the easiest way. So no matter how gimmicky and epic you design a boss battle, if players can cheese it to save time, they will. Take world of warcraft for example: there was a pvp mode where both teams had to fight eachother and defeat eachothers general. For a while, they played as intended: both armies clashed in the battlefieldas they tried to defend their fortress. But later, they realized they got a better payoff by just ignoring eachother and making it a race towhoever could beat the leader first. Essentially turning pvp into a pve race. It was not intended to be that way, but they cant blame players to find the easiest way to the prize.
Thanks for making the vid. Im quite new to monster hunter and im hunter rank 49 now. Ive been meaning to get into decoration farming and this exactly what i needed. Great vid and definitely deserves a thumbs up. Keep it up!
1. save the save file to cloud or USB, I personally use USB it's faster and safer, no connection variant. 2. get a sheet of paper and write down all the upcoming melding, aka use all your points and decos. 3. highlight any decos that you want along the way. Copy the save file from the USB to the machine to roll back to where you were before all that melding. (DON'T MESS THIS ONE UP!) 4. figure out which "advancement" you are currently. The advancement number goes by 1-1-2 and you need to figure out where exactly you are at, then mark the sheet with advancement numbers right beside each roll. 5. either do the 1 minute optional 6 star quest that requires you to deliver 4 fossils or continue doing whatever 9 star tempered quests to maximize the efficiency of deco farming. It's really your choice of how you want to move forward the table. (I do tempered quest cause after solely doing that optional quest only to move forward on the sheet for an hour you get bored to death.) 6. Repeat once you've reached the end of the sheet. I do maybe like 50 - 60 melding rolls each time so you don't have to constantly mess with the save-copy-paste process. I've been doing this for about a month ago at around 140hr gameplay and now i'm 240hr and I've got the majority of all the rarity 7, 8 decos (to their full effect), like 3 mushroomancer, 3 artillery, attack gems etc and many more that I couldn't have gotten them otherwise. Mind you that I was also doing 9 star quests along the way and personally the quest rewards never give me what i want.. It's a bit more work but it pays off big time if you are a true decos enthusiast.
ibb.co/bGm5cH ---- if this helps a little. like Mark Bulosan said, it's the skip pattern. it's vital that you know where exactly you are and where you will be going on the sheet, and if you have something you want that's right after the 2 skips, you can just meld one cheapest melding to have 1 skip, as well as keep on track that you will be one roll down "AFTER" getting the one you want from a specific roll. Note that you can always do melding to have 1 skip everytime, it doesn't interfere with the 1-1-2 pattern when you do quests.
Completing or failing a quest advances the melder table in a pattern of 2 steps, 1 step, 1 step. Though the only way to know in what part of the cycle you are on you would have test it by doing a quest and then melding to see how many steps it advances.
If you guys need any help with farming investigations (tempered) then my advice will be to look for Diablos (t2) and Kirin (t3). Once you have managed to get one of them just set up the quest and just follow them around. For Diablos I suggest you bring a ghillie mantle since he will attack you. I haven't done Kirin yet but I'm 90% sure you won't need a ghillie mantle since shocky pony gives no f***s. For food wise. I recommend the food perk Felyne researcher since it will help tremendously with your collecting. Happy hunting my fellow hunters! May you have some luck with your decoration farming the hard way.
Great tip man, thank you a lot. Been on the traditional grind for the bow charge plus decoration for like 200 hours and nothing, hopefully this helps me
Sorry about that my dude, you don't deserve that. Tbh I used to have a negative mindset on save scumming too, but then I grew up and realized that all video games are is entertainment, and some people achieve their entertainment differently than others. Some like to play how the game is intended to play, while others take advantage of loopholes. Doesn't make either one wrong or right, just different playstyles. :)
Just and FYI, and someone may have mentioned this already. I actually did get a Hero’s Streamstone by completing a threat level 2 tempered Diablos Investigation.
I'd also recommend four pieces of guild cross armor. It basically does this: For every reward, there's a chance for another reward (Around 40%). This applies to box rewards and breaking parts. The guild favour also seems to have chance to upgrade the box reward tiers as I have gotten some worn feystones and rare warped from T1 tempered and from my experience when hunting with pals and comparing loot. I end up getting 1 augment stone extra around 50% of time So, I recommend 4 guild cross pieces in your farming gear. They are decent pieces without real resistance weakness, some alright skills and most importantly, they got good deco slots, so when you have reached a point in the game where you have good supply of defense gems but little to no offense gems, slot proper defense decos against the monsters you are hunting and you should be in clear when doing these bosses. Sure, you aren't speedrunning, but if you take the extended boss time as practice and.. ost importantly; A piece of entertainment, you'll do just fine
I hope this expansion changes the whole decoration system, previous games had a MUCH easier system. And that melder is almost a complete waste of stones.
Megabakufun2 ye man just terrible what EXACTLY do you need it for again cause to my knowledge no skills are needed to beat any quest in the game let alone jewels? Having an optional post game grind to keep players interested is great game design if it doesn’t work for you great come back for new monsters ect, that being said having all the jewels to maximize your fucking build is a bit pointless when you have nothing to do with it nice try tho dood cheat to your hearts content it takes fucking ages and the gameplay is much better than playing the game normally lol then after you have everything you will want you have nothing to play for and you’ll do a few hunts and be bored as fuck. Meanwhile ima hunt monsters with friends have fun reloading your save file I hope you find tons of joy with it
great guide. I didn't realize that the elder melder eats your points towwards the end until after using her for a while lol. Edit: also I do wish there was a "Remove All Decorations" option like there was in previous games so we can meld them easier.
S&W Gaming it had too much unneeded info actually. Should've been separate videos for how to farm what decorations, instead it took 6 minutes to get to what the title is called
I got so stressed by watching you casually go through that list of SOS investigations! :) The ship's already sailed by the time you have actually read what the investigation is all about in my experience.
Everyone keeps knocking the savescuming but as a player who has done countless tier 2 investigations only to get endless B jewels. Then turn around and randomly meld to get the same B jewels, it would be nice to take a peek behind the curtain and go for something substantial rather than the continued grind and gambling with no return.
You can trigger cloud save in your room when you talk to the trailrider kitty go down to check for add ons and there you go! Cloud saved! To go on and offline easy just go to network settings in the xbox settings menu and just be extra careful everybody! Hope that helps ^_^
Really enjoy your videos man. This one extra useful for me. I don’t have a lot of time to dig deep into Monster Hunter these days. You made it very plain and simple the reason you do t2 vs t3. The only thing I’m still not 100% on is if you’re not not melding out 3 decos worth then you’re wasting potential use of your streamstone right?
The reason theres a lower chance is Because in Threat lvl 3 missions you dont get the white feystones anymore, so they had to balance it out a little bit you still get better rewards from threat level 3 Tempered investigations over all and in the long run
Do more tempered elder dragons barely hr60 and got mind's eye/ spread/piercing/ bow charge + x2/ and one handicraft All on rewards from tempered , maybe one from re-roll
Both types of streamstones now drop from threat lv 2 investigations btw. I still don't see the data updated on kiranico, but I've gotten quite a few, and it was in one of the patches a long time ago (not the % though)
Look at the decorations table is not that rare I’m not even HR 100 and I have two of them, I’m looking for my bow charge plus decoration is in a rarity S table, but I have 3 Critical boost jewel already! Is just RNG
By the time you did all the prep and then the sniping for that specific deco, you could be downing Temp Investigations and getting the decos you need. Honestly, just keep doing the Temp quests, hopefully you will get lucky. Yes I know, RNG!!!
Right, I wish I knew about him when I was playing heavily the first time I was around, I've soaked up so much knowledge and increased my hunting, gathering efficiency, and overall gameplay by light years. I'm still not in the major leagues yet but boy I'm getting there.
You keep saying "Back-up to the cloud", when I think you're intending to say "Reload from the cloud". Don't want someone to accidentally reback-up their save after they've spent all their decorations
To all of you complaining about your attack jewels. I had 4 attack jewels at HR 80-something but found out earlier this week that my account was never backed up to cloud before replacing my PS4. ;_;
I have 7 attk and 8 crit eye. But not from scumming. Never tried it. Lots of crit boost ones too. Just play normal and farm T2 Temp quests and T3. Look for the 4 purple rewards and keep doing them. More chance at rare deco.
I see so pretty much unless I really want to invest so much time into extra power, not worth it if you wanna enjoy the game for the main stuff and optional quests that unlock things. I am actually focusing on the optional questions, then go back to the story. At times i do find myself doing some investigating quests and event and special assignments, but all this extra stuff just adds more time. I actually wanna explore other MH games. So, I might come back to MHW after I complete the game to do all this extra stuff not to mention I don't have iceborne yet. Just another thing to look forward to at a later time.
I just started and at level 39-40 I did a 4x Reward box tempered tier 2 capture: pink rathian and recieved a Hero's streamstone: Axe (switchaxe and CB). I guess it's fairly unlikely to get it since everything says its not possible to get one from T2 investigations. Ironically I was hoping for a Warrior's version which is more common, for my Diablos Ty 2 CB.
TDE Linkaboo7 You know I'm crying, I mean it may or may not be true that you have that many, but even just faced with the posibility I shed tears of Blood. Oh, the builds I could make with just a couple or so more attack Jewels.
Jimmy Perez it sure must have been, I think I should maybe blackmail the smith to give me more of those, he gives you one willy nilly, there MUST be more from where that came from...
394 hours into the game... not a single Attack Jewel. Not a single Artillery or Capacity up Jewel (i mainly played Charge Blade for the first 250 hours or so). The game just hates me, and i hate it in return. Don't want to use any save scumming to be honest, but my patience is running dangerously thin at this point.
I'm a PC MHW player and I'm at my I don't know 250-300 hours playtime, and I always get Elementless. I don't need to many of it, because technically, you will only need one. #sadlife And I get soooo many Dragon or Fire Res, Dragon or Fire Attack, Health Boost, Heavy Artillery, etc. (not really helpful) and got too many Poison & Para Func, which I may need in the future, BUT AGAIN, only need one of them. And I think 20+ Fortify jewels (I know it's still a few compared to others' mad gameplay). LOL! And the most recent jewel that I got was I think a Normal Shot and a Critical Eye. But no Attack (only 1 which was given, no Critical Boost, no Spread Shot, no Focus, no Artillery, no Peak Performance) So far the jewels I got which I usually use that are beneficial are, again Elementless, Maximum Might (1), and Tenderizer (1). Please come to me, good RNG, be kind, be merciful. Looking for more videos from you TheGameconomist. Keep it up!
Here is a spreadsheet of all decorations ranked by rarity and gives you the number you need for full effect. It was taken from Rurikhan's video so please check him out ruclips.net/channel/UCy9L0ITuHozyqAxW26KPvKg.

Jeez. I'm 360 hours in. Have every achievement except the Giant Crown one. (But am close) 150 Low rank quests. 210 High Rank quests. 290 Investigations. 80 Arena quests. And I haven't even unlocked the option to augment gear yet and only have three S tier decorations.
I felt so bad for my friends when I, as a bow main, used the elder melder for the first time and got the mighty bow jewel. Literally after just playing for 100 Hours, I got what bow mains with 600+ hours are still looking for. I feel so bad.
92hrs and I am complaining how my Equipment Skills didn't level-up, despite the fact that 3pcs of Odogaron set have the same Equipment Skill which is Critical Eye. They say that if you wear equipment with same Equipment Skill, the skill would level-up one by one. Sigh.

I used to have a negative mindset on save scumming, but then I grew up and realized that all video games are is entertainment, and some people achieve their entertainment differently than others.

RNG solely exists to screw you over. So any method to screw RNG back is justified imo.
The big issue is that if this was PVP game, I can't agree with that logic.
Good thing MHW isn't a PVP game.

Your guide is written and organized very well. Thumbs up for sure.
"..Once all your weapons are augmented.."
*looks at 10 pages of weapons and starts sweating*
1. save the save file to cloud or USB, I personally use USB it's faster and safer, no connection variant.
2. get a sheet of paper and write down all the upcoming melding, aka use all your points and decos.
3. highlight any decos that you want along the way. Copy the save file from the USB to the machine to roll back to where you were before all that melding. (DON'T MESS THIS ONE UP!)
4. figure out which "advancement" you are currently. The advancement number goes by 1-1-2 and you need to figure out where exactly you are at, then mark the sheet with advancement numbers right beside each roll.
5. either do the 1 minute optional 6 star quest that requires you to deliver 4 fossils or continue doing whatever 9 star tempered quests to maximize the efficiency of deco farming. It's really your choice of how you want to move forward the table. (I do tempered quest cause after solely doing that optional quest only to move forward on the sheet for an hour you get bored to death.)
6. Repeat once you've reached the end of the sheet. I do maybe like 50 - 60 melding rolls each time so you don't have to constantly mess with the save-copy-paste process.
I've been doing this for about a month ago at around 140hr gameplay and now i'm 240hr and I've got the majority of all the rarity 7, 8 decos (to their full effect), like 3 mushroomancer, 3 artillery, attack gems etc and many more that I couldn't have gotten them otherwise. Mind you that I was also doing 9 star quests along the way and personally the quest rewards never give me what i want.. It's a bit more work but it pays off big time if you are a true decos enthusiast.
Twisted Balls in #4 what do you mean 1-1-2
Mrmike501 Gamer Dad. It’s the skip pattern for the elder melder.
ibb.co/bGm5cH ---- if this helps a little. like Mark Bulosan said, it's the skip pattern. it's vital that you know where exactly you are and where you will be going on the sheet, and if you have something you want that's right after the 2 skips, you can just meld one cheapest melding to have 1 skip, as well as keep on track that you will be one roll down "AFTER" getting the one you want from a specific roll. Note that you can always do melding to have 1 skip everytime, it doesn't interfere with the 1-1-2 pattern when you do quests.
Completing or failing a quest advances the melder table in a pattern of 2 steps, 1 step, 1 step. Though the only way to know in what part of the cycle you are on you would have test it by doing a quest and then melding to see how many steps it advances.
If you guys need any help with farming investigations (tempered) then my advice will be to look for Diablos (t2) and Kirin (t3). Once you have managed to get one of them just set up the quest and just follow them around. For Diablos I suggest you bring a ghillie mantle since he will attack you. I haven't done Kirin yet but I'm 90% sure you won't need a ghillie mantle since shocky pony gives no f***s. For food wise. I recommend the food perk Felyne researcher since it will help tremendously with your collecting. Happy hunting my fellow hunters! May you have some luck with your decoration farming the hard way.

Crazy part is even after melding i didnt get one.. but it did eventually drop for me.... 646 hours in.. smh

I didn't know there was an Xbox One version of Savescumming, thanks man.
Came for the useful information, subscribed for the soothing voice delivery.
His voice leads me to believe he is a relative of Gaijin Hunter.
Everyone keeps knocking the savescuming but as a player who has done countless tier 2 investigations only to get endless B jewels. Then turn around and randomly meld to get the same B jewels, it would be nice to take a peek behind the curtain and go for something substantial rather than the continued grind and gambling with no return.
Excellent videos, great information, keep it up mate.
You can trigger cloud save in your room when you talk to the trailrider kitty go down to check for add ons and there you go! Cloud saved! To go on and offline easy just go to network settings in the xbox settings menu and just be extra careful everybody! Hope that helps ^_^
Nice!
appreciate the video gets straight to the point.
Really enjoyed your explanation
last night Temper kirin treated me with love whit a crit Boost jewl 😋
Really enjoy your videos man. This one extra useful for me. I don’t have a lot of time to dig deep into Monster Hunter these days. You made it very plain and simple the reason you do t2 vs t3. The only thing I’m still not 100% on is if you’re not not melding out 3 decos worth then you’re wasting potential use of your streamstone right?
Great vid bro
Can’t wait to try this out
did it work
Love your tutorials!
Brilliant vid thanks for the help, very concise and informative !
I had over 500 hours in this game and my ps4 wiped for no real reason. I get to collect everything all over again. Yay. ((Hysterical crying))*
Thanks for the tip always solid.
your voice and the way you talk calms me. do an asmr where you just explain stuff plz. lol i'm crazy
Ive heard that before, maybe I will for fun someday
Thank you so much for this informative video! Pls keep the good work!
Got Mushroomer gem really early on. Never really use it but have always been tempted to meld it.
You actually can get Hero Streamstones from T2. Got one a few days ago from Uragaan ;)
Great vid mate. Thanks!
Thanks that means a lot, if you want to see more, consider subbing. See you around!
Thank for everything .great, loved it .
started with pc and i am moving towards hr 50, good video dude no idea if savescumming works here but i wont try it until 200 hours
The reason theres a lower chance is Because in Threat lvl 3 missions you dont get the white feystones anymore, so they had to balance it out a little bit you still get better rewards from threat level 3 Tempered investigations over all and in the long run
great job man
Love your content
Do more tempered elder dragons
barely hr60 and got mind's eye/ spread/piercing/ bow charge + x2/ and one handicraft
All on rewards from tempered , maybe one from re-roll
Both types of streamstones now drop from threat lv 2 investigations btw. I still don't see the data updated on kiranico, but I've gotten quite a few, and it was in one of the patches a long time ago (not the % though)
that laugh of depression close to the end..... Im sure we all feel your pain.
still havent gotten my god damn non elemental boost decoration
I have 7 of them ;)
cool I have approximately 700 stun resistance :) yay depression
Kieran Ford I got one from doing a tzitu tizu bird monster investigation today for the bird wyvern quest for weekly golden print
Look at the decorations table is not that rare I’m not even HR 100 and I have two of them, I’m looking for my bow charge plus decoration is in a rarity S table, but I have 3 Critical boost jewel already! Is just RNG
yea i got the bow charge plus, the bow percing shot and a bunch of bow coating jewels but i dont frikin use the bow
54 hours in game. got 1 attack jewel :) so glad
LuCent Cloud Everyone gets one from the campaign. :)
Seeing you hover over those attack jewels at the melder gave me some sort of anxiety lol
Thank you for this
Nice video, keep it up!, I hope it will be working, because I am afraid that I will remove my save completely :)
thanks for the tips
By the time you did all the prep and then the sniping for that specific deco, you could be downing Temp Investigations and getting the decos you need. Honestly, just keep doing the Temp quests, hopefully you will get lucky. Yes I know, RNG!!!
Good vid. Thanks
mhw should link your channel ingame. it's like a virtual bible for mhw.
Right, I wish I knew about him when I was playing heavily the first time I was around, I've soaked up so much knowledge and increased my hunting, gathering efficiency, and overall gameplay by light years. I'm still not in the major leagues yet but boy I'm getting there.
2:25
YEAH
3 agumentation regen on heavy like me XD
Subscribed and like
Yeah
You keep saying "Back-up to the cloud", when I think you're intending to say "Reload from the cloud". Don't want someone to accidentally reback-up their save after they've spent all their decorations
I thought the same thingm shoulda said "Restore back up FROM the cloud". But thats just me being an IT nerd.
Thanks! I was wondering how the save scum worked on xbox
great video
To all of you complaining about your attack jewels. I had 4 attack jewels at HR 80-something but found out earlier this week that my account was never backed up to cloud before replacing my PS4. ;_;
I have 7 attk and 8 crit eye. But not from scumming. Never tried it. Lots of crit boost ones too. Just play normal and farm T2 Temp quests and T3. Look for the 4 purple rewards and keep doing them. More chance at rare deco.
Save scumming is such a boring waste of time. I'll never understand why people do it.
I see so pretty much unless I really want to invest so much time into extra power, not worth it if you wanna enjoy the game for the main stuff and optional quests that unlock things. I am actually focusing on the optional questions, then go back to the story. At times i do find myself doing some investigating quests and event and special assignments, but all this extra stuff just adds more time. I actually wanna explore other MH games. So, I might come back to MHW after I complete the game to do all this extra stuff not to mention I don't have iceborne yet. Just another thing to look forward to at a later time.
I just started and at level 39-40 I did a 4x Reward box tempered tier 2 capture: pink rathian and recieved a Hero's streamstone: Axe (switchaxe and CB). I guess it's fairly unlikely to get it since everything says its not possible to get one from T2 investigations. Ironically I was hoping for a Warrior's version which is more common, for my Diablos Ty 2 CB.
Who has more than 7 attack jewels? I mean who?
Dark God me. have around 28iah
TDE Linkaboo7 You know I'm crying, I mean it may or may not be true that you have that many, but even just faced with the posibility I shed tears of Blood. Oh, the builds I could make with just a couple or so more attack Jewels.
Dark God i got another one the other day it was a good feeling i now have 2
Jimmy Perez it sure must have been, I think I should maybe blackmail the smith to give me more of those, he gives you one willy nilly, there MUST be more from where that came from...
394 hours into the game... not a single Attack Jewel. Not a single Artillery or Capacity up Jewel (i mainly played Charge Blade for the first 250 hours or so). The game just hates me, and i hate it in return.
Don't want to use any save scumming to be honest, but my patience is running dangerously thin at this point.
180hrs...
Only 1 attack gem
And another 1 from the festival
Cliente Promedio 380ish here. Fingers crossed we get a better way in IB
nice just subscribed
Thank you!
Did know the wyvern ritual existed and I now have 117 sonorous jewels
interacting because deserved
I'm a PC MHW player and I'm at my I don't know 250-300 hours playtime, and I always get Elementless. I don't need to many of it, because technically, you will only need one. #sadlife And I get soooo many Dragon or Fire Res, Dragon or Fire Attack, Health Boost, Heavy Artillery, etc. (not really helpful) and got too many Poison & Para Func, which I may need in the future, BUT AGAIN, only need one of them. And I think 20+ Fortify jewels (I know it's still a few compared to others' mad gameplay). LOL! And the most recent jewel that I got was I think a Normal Shot and a Critical Eye. But no Attack (only 1 which was given, no Critical Boost, no Spread Shot, no Focus, no Artillery, no Peak Performance) So far the jewels I got which I usually use that are beneficial are, again Elementless, Maximum Might (1), and Tenderizer (1). Please come to me, good RNG, be kind, be merciful.
Looking for more videos from you TheGameconomist. Keep it up!
Ive gotten two hero stream stones in hr30 tempered azure rathalos runs... so you are able to get them there aswell
I got my first worrior streamstone from a temper black diablos.
Here is a spreadsheet of all decorations ranked by rarity and gives you the number you need for full effect. It was taken from Rurikhan's video so please check him out ruclips.net/channel/UCy9L0ITuHozyqAxW26KPvKg. Spreadsheet was done by MuskratTuck
docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ysj6c2boC6GarFvMah34e6VviZeaoKB6QWovWLSGlsY/htmlview?usp=sharing&sle=true#
I've gotten several hero streamstones from Black Diablos
When I first unlocked the elder melder, I was about to sacrifice a attack boost
Omg if I did I would of raged
Hall0w33ny lol guess what I did?
Binskibub rip, I know what you did already lol
I implore everyone to check out Toukiden Kiwama if you love MH as it's basically the Japanese version of MH - what Nioh is to Dark Souls, if you will
Jeez. I'm 360 hours in. Have every achievement except the Giant Crown one. (But am close)
150 Low rank quests.
210 High Rank quests.
290 Investigations.
80 Arena quests.
And I haven't even unlocked the option to augment gear yet and only have three S tier decorations.
U can actually upload ur save to online storage and dl it over and over again on ps4
I felt so bad for my friends when I, as a bow main, used the elder melder for the first time and got the mighty bow jewel. Literally after just playing for 100 Hours, I got what bow mains with 600+ hours are still looking for. I feel so bad.
I got a hero streamstone from from rathalos and I just reach level 50 today. And it’s a sword and I use long sword
92hrs and I am complaining how my Equipment Skills didn't level-up, despite the fact that 3pcs of Odogaron set have the same Equipment Skill which is Critical Eye. They say that if you wear equipment with same Equipment Skill, the skill would level-up one by one. Sigh.
good stuff
Very good
