Yeah, I think I'll handle teostra once I've got the roar combo sorted, he's not very hard.  Lunastra is weird, is the big thing.  Her supernova is weird, her fire fields are weird, she's a weird monster to get the hang of.  Astera jerky mostly negates the chip damage she does in her supernova, but the big thing is she can make the fire fields flare up and do damage.

Really weirdly, if you have her and kushala daora in the same area for some reason, the daora tornadoes will pick up the fire fields and become fire tornadoes.

Daora used to be the bane of my life until I discovered what Flash Pods do to it.

Still need a Daora gem tho.

So Iceborne's release will be on January 9th, pre-orders are already up on Steam.

Elderseal to the head will also reliably KO him.  With a greatsword you can almost 100-0 stunlock him by KOing him, then rushing to true charge slash and hitting him again as he stands up

I just love knocking his ass out of the air so much, though.

Iceborne is out on Steam today, for a cool $39.99.

MHW has more than paid for itself so I'm not bitching about the price. But I just did another marathon of it and can honestly wait a while for it. With Iceborne + the base game coming out in an ultimate edition next year, I imagine Iceborne may go on sale before then.

Deerrrrrppp. Reading is good. For how much fanfare there is around it, you'd have thought this was release day.

It's okay. I made that mistake too.

I'm a little miffed at the moment. In my haste to pre-purchase the game I hadn't realized that what I wanted was the digital deluxe edition and but I can't get it because I already got the other edition instead. Apparently there's no way to upgrade either, and I don't know if I'll be able to get it once it's actually released or if it's only for pre-orders.

Can't you refund the pre-purchase?

[Ozyton]

I haven never had to refund anything before but I can give it a shot? I tried to look it up on Google but all I got were people asking about the PS4 version, not Steam.

[forsaken1111]

Go to https://help.steampowered.com/en/ log in and find the game, click it, click "It's not what I expected", "I'd like to request a refund" and fill out the form.

Steam servers are slow right now so if it errors just try again

It usually takes about a day to process and another day for the money to be returned to your steam account. A refund to your card can take 3-5 days.

[Dunamisdeos]

That said, you can almost always upgrade once it comes out.

But you certainly have time to exchange it using the above method.

I know I don't really keep this thread updated as much as I would like, but the G-rank expansion is going to be released in just about 3 weeks. If you haven't completed the main story yet then be sure to get it completed before the expansion comes out. The devs were even nice enough to release 'lazy' armor sets and weapons to help people cheese their way through low and high rank quicker, something they haven't done in previous titles to my knowledge. If you still need someone to carry you and you don't feel like doing it with randoms then I'm on the Bay12 discord server (even if I never talk there, so you'll probably have to poke me).

Hell I'll come along for basically anything as well. I'm hardly pro but i'm 56 rank and don't really remember the last time I outright failed at a hunt. Hit me up.

[Nighthawk]

It's worth noting that you shouldn't feel too much pressure to grind for gear in preparation for Master Rank, as the simplest armors you can craft from Master Rank monsters will likely outclass anything you have access to before Iceborne comes out.

That's how it's been in basically every previous MH game, anyway.
