![]() I joined a Crimson Glow Valstrax hunt from a join request, as per usual, got into a full group already 4 ½ minutes into the quest. Ooooh, I always wanted to tell my hunt stories, this happened quite some time ago Jeff and I still give Matt shit about it to this day whenever he gets cocky about being really "skilled" at monster hunter, and when he whines about random SOS hunters being bad. We then asked if he'd eaten for elemental resistance at least. Once we finish Jeff and I started trying to figure out why Matt was getting destroyed so bad and discovered his ice resistance and level 1 armor. Post hunt commendations said I did 600+ team heals. I swapped to a better damage set-up, and started earnestly trying to kill this Velkana as quickly as possible.Ĥ9 minutes 53 seconds. At which point Jeff and I told Matt to stay at camp. Even with speed eating and wide-range 5 Matt still managed to get himself killed twice.Īfter 40-ish minutes was when Matt carted for the second time. Using free meal secret I still restocked my potions, mega potions, life powder, and dust of life THREE times! Jeff was trying his damnedest to basically fight this Velkana solo with a weapon he didn't know well while I was chain chugging potions trying to keep Matt alive. So he had relatively low defense, with super low ice resistance, fighting a Velkana. Matt had -15 ice resistance, and hadn't upgraded a single piece of his new armor set past level 1. (He had layered armor on at the time so I didn't notice.) What I didn't know was that he'd gone and farmed up some new brachydios armor between our last game session and now. He also had/has a tendency to overcommit to a combo and get hit. Matt played Switch Axe, and never quite managed to learn the art of dodging. Jeff and I were trying out weapons that weren't our mains to keep things fresh, and I was running support SnS because I anticipated we'd need the healing for Matt. This was in the first week or two after Iceborne released, so things were pretty tame gear wise compared to now. I was running a speed eating 3, wide-range 5, and free meal secret 3 SnS for fun, and had another friend along to help out too (we'll call him Jeff). His first full Velkana fight was a absolute nightmare. ![]() So I was helping a friend (we'll call him Matt) through Iceborne.
