    This video took some time to create and edit. When I used to watch videos, i thought it was easy to produce videos. Now I realised how much effort is needed to take raw footage, script, record audio, edit everything and put it all together. I like learning new things. It's fun. If this video helped you, a simple like or subscribe would help this channel grow.
    Thanks! (extra credits if you shared this video to someone who needs it)

    Key thing with hammer is... don't get greedy or you will be serverely punished! I run a paralysis hammer and personally use charge 1 alot, particularly with fast monsters like girros/legiana. Charge 2 is used to typically close up distance or to increase paralysis proc. Don't underestimate normal attacks, as they are great for building up procs due to quicker animations and more forgiving dodge windows. I avoid charge 3 due to the long charge time and cooldown animation, unless it's a Paolumu; because a good charge 3 hammer looks awesome on their fluffy heads.

      Charge 1 & 2 is the best depending on the situation
      Charge 1 is fast in completing the attack animation, so i always have enough time to dodge the attack after using
      Charge 2 is good for hit and run, and since it swings the hammer from down to up, it's useful in hitting different body parts (such as hitting barroth's foreleg)
      This is the first time i ever main hammer even though i play monster hunter since 3U, the hammer in this game just feels so satisfying and easy to use

      @@geosama1317 I used to rely on charge 2 90% of the time, but after meeting higher star monster, i realized the consecutive atk after charge 2's first hit is too risky to use because the animation is taking very long which makes me hard to dodge the upcoming monster's atk. Since then i use charge 1 and 2 equally based on the situation
      But there's nothing right or wrong, find your most comfortable play style is the most important thing 👍

    How does affinity works? Especially for the Barioth hammer. Do I focus on the affinity bonus coming from the hammer itself or ice elemental damage?

    • @shawnzyplays
      @shawnzyplays  8 месяцев назад

      Affinity can be simply explained as crit chance. 10% affinity means 10% chance to deal crit dmg.
      Crit dmg = extra 25% dmg on top of your regular attacks.
      Atm, it is still better to go with ice attack 5 for the guaranteed +500 ice attack.

  • @Jim_ajem
    @Jim_ajem Год назад +4

    A build that i'm currently running is geared towards evasion, mostly because i like the dodge mechanic of the game. With that, i run pukei helm and chest, kadachi arms and legs, and paolumu waist coz i don't know what else to run. The hammer i'm using is the kulu one for the crits

    • @Jim_ajem
      @Jim_ajem Год назад +1

      It's working out great for me, getting those perfect dodges then going back in with either a lvl 1 or a lvl 2 charge coz getting a prefect dodge puts u back in with a lvl 1 charge, then dodging out again to avoid getting hit. I'm currently hr 37 and i just beat rathian, might tweak the set again to change it to a poison atk one, swapping out the chest and waist for rathian ones for the poison atk, and sticking with the pukei helm for the focus

    I dont think high focus should help for hammer. Due to hammer can walk to monster and still charge. Some time you just need lv2 charge to hit the head. And go big bang combo. If focus too high, you will go with lv3 charge and it is not always good with lv3 charge. Just lv1 focus or 0 is ok to go bonk some monster head

    My dude, back off from the mic so that when you do T,P or S noises the air doesn’t go directly into the mic.
    This is painful.

      sorry man its just a noob set up using the earpiece that the phone came with. Thanks for the feedback though. I'll see what i can do next time. Maybe i'll put a cloth over the mic to soften the voice input.

      @@shawnzyplays another option you have is try putting the phone’s mic to the side so you aren’t doing pops directly into it.
      Also if you are having trouble with ambient tone try putting a blanket over your head and mic. It’s a great method for if you don’t have soundproofing in your recording area.
