Since online wasn't an option for me today, I made a new SnS set and am almost finished with my Bushido set.

I saw PAiN's Bushido set, so I decided to make my own. I just so happened to have everything I needed. So I made a set with Sharpness +1, Razor Sharp, Awaken, Bombardier, and Evasion +1 (And it only uses one of the three slots that Bushido has, too). Now I just need to do the quest that gives you Bushido a few times and make the Bushido DS.

EDIT - I realized I haven't played with any forumers recently. I need to play with some sometime. All of the forumers that I have in my friends list either don't get on, or don't get on the same times I do. D:

I DID IT! I beat off JHOZILLA MUAHAHAHAHAHA oh I also got the mini crown award. That's exciting I guess...

Congratz man How did you get it? By Peco quest or Rage Match?

Deep-Sixin' dat Jho

Oh i guess it's different for each person. Glad we both got it out of the way

I feel so lucky considering the group I was playing with wasn't even planning on fighting any Jhos when we were doing the triple Peco quest. It would have been bad if the group I was playing with was all newbies who'd get slaughtered by the Deviljho.

@Antari18: When do you play, and how often? I'm getting kinda tired of playing with randoms who are rather inconsistent when it comes to how good they are. I was hoping that maybe we could get together sometime.

Depends, I'm slowly going towards 999 so i'm trying to play everyday (goal at least 10 HR per day meh). But "sometimes" don't feel like playing at all and ends up leaving console for week or so. But I'm not going anywhere and probably stick with 3U till servers dies (like i did with Tri). Anyway I'm living in Europe (GMT+1) so it can be kinda hard to synch. Playing on evenings mostly. But who knows? I saw Will and played with Meta yesterday, so all things possible.

Don't worry. I have to put up with not being able to join cities 14 out of every 15 times I try to join a city. I often spend up to an hour just trying to join a city that doesn't disconnect me. And once I can finally find a city that I can actually get into, I have to hope the host isn't leaving or anything like that.

I used to have that issue till I changed some setting on my router, basically put your wii in the router's DMZ. I did that and have had pretty much no problems since.

Hey peeps, been a while since I checked in. Been hunting a bit with some other forum members lately which has been good. Slowly getting my remaining awards, only ones left are small crowns, big gold crowns and artisans. Been mostly working on the artisans one lately, found I usually only need to go obtain LR / HR materials, seems I've enough G rank stuff (for now at least). Will occasionally set up a city while I'm farming so some noobs can come along, but it's usually easier to just work offline.

Oh, and actually using some new weapons, been enjoying using the Lance lately, can do serious damage with it and you're pretty hard to hit

I've been making a lot of the weirder armors and weapons lately. I made the Mighty Cornpopper and I'm working on the pumpkin gun for shits and giggles. The speartuna GS also took very little time to make. I got all the speartuna I needed in one quest within 10 minutes. I was pretty surprised. I also made all of the armor from "Flooded Forest Free-for-all!" so I can dick around in it. Mostly just rare commodity farming, so fun stuff.

I do my farming at like 1AM haha

I did some B. Blos (Plain Dangerous) runs today. Got 2 Hardhorns out of about 5 quests. With one of them I finished my Sharpness +1, Awaken, Speed Eating +1, Punishing Draw, Critical Draw, and Speed Sheath set (For my Nero's Angiush, which has one slot that I use). I used the other one for my Cera Cyclord (or whatever the Diablos bow is called).

After I was done hunting, one of my brothers decided he wanted to play SSBB with a GameCube controler, so we find and hook up the wii. It has MH3 in it, so I start that up instead.

After starting it, I almost had a heart attack due to the horrible graphics. It brought back so many memories... So many things were so familier, like the Barioth when it does the move that got taken away when the Nargacuga came back in MH3U.

Fighting Zinogre in Moga Woods leads to many frights.
First was a CPeco & Zin, I get the CPeco down some health and it flees to zone 2, I head there, noticing I haven't seen Zin yet, and just before I get into zone 2 Zin pops up right in front of me. I don't even remember what I screamed like xD I think it was like aaaiiiiieegh!
Then it happened again when I got a single Zin, I went looking for it and just before I enter the Jaggi cave, pop, Zin's there.
Finally this one I'm fighting now, I was on low health so I ran into the next zone, used a potion and Zin instantly came in and charged at me.
Zinogre - the jumpscare monster.
Of course it's all worth it for those points and the Jasper I got off the first one. (Even if I have no current use for my jaspers.)

I hunted yesterday after long break. First tried to find 4pt city but failed miserably. Definately less and less people are playing this game unfortunately.

Than hunted some random stuff, helping people etc. I also got this one funny situation when we're doing adv narga+g.narga. We killed normal narga in area 6 and after that green narga land immediately on him and start fighting :D

Giant Gold Rathian, I swear to goodness I will find you and kill you and hang your head next to my wall of 270 Deviljho heads.

I also made a HBG set I like a lot. Feel free to tell me how shitty it is.

General HBG set:
Peak Performance
Evade Extender
Element Attack Up
Normal/Rapid Up
Halve Hunger

It's pretty damn good if you ask me.

Yesterday i got Evade+4, OOO tali. I was really disappointed when i found out that the one that i need is evade+5, OOO...

Oh lol. I'm not very familiar with HBGs, so I looked at what seemed useful and put them together. I've been trying to get a lot of practice lately.

needing some Glowing Slime to make the dios SWAX (which I'll never use) so was hunting Brachy with some randoms over the w'end.  Guess how many slime I got from the first 4 Brachy.... f-en desire sensor.  Got cortex coming out the wazoo but no slime.

At least playing with randoms make me appreciate playing with my friends more, it's so much better when hunting with people who a) know what they're doing, and b) know you well enough to have a good idea what you'll do.  Also lately we've been doing 2 melee, 2 range weapons which has been working really well.  We were about to do a DM and I half jokingly asked if we'd do it in less than 5 minutes.  Ended up doing it in less than 6  so then I thought we should try the event DM and we died horribly.

Got all the heavenly items I needed yesterday. Did some solo missions on my 3DS, first try got my Rathalos Mantle, then two Zin Skymeralds. Got online for a hot minute and helped some people with Alatreon. First carve from tail got an Azure Dragonshpire, then another after we killed him. Spent the rest of my time making a set just for looks, trying to make a gunner and use the awesome Stygian arms with the left hand of doom xD

I made myself a new HH set today. It's not amazing, but I do like it.
The set includes:

Sharpness +1
Knockout King
Stamina Drain
Horn Maestro

Yesterday while doing 4pt runs i found Edgemaster+3, Stamina Drain+6 tali. Pretty much best edgemaster tali in my table. Now i can make some decent Hammer and Hunting Horn sets :D

I can easily fit 4 skills there i.e. Honed Edge, Stamina Thief, Knockout King, Bombardier/Horn Maestro or Honed Edge, Stamina Thief, Speed Sharpening, Evade+1. The only problem is these sets require to work 1 slot weapon :/ so Miralis, Alatreon hammers are out as well as Brachy HH.

Also I'm kind of tired of seeing this Narga Cap Z + nether combination. The other option is Dober X legs which looks just bizarre and obnoxious to me. Who on earth would like the look of it... i wonder why they even implement it in this game. Female Dober looks fine, but male... ugh...

Male Dober armor is completely disturbing.
