Long time MH veteran wants to finally conquer MHGU
I have been playing MH since 3U. I have 2000 hours in 3U, 1000 in 4U, 1000 in World, 600 in Rise, and about 100 in Wilds.
MHGU is simply TOO BIG! Obviously I have a voracious appetite for hunting monsters and making them into hats and swords, but I already have 100+ hours into GU already and haven't even finished HR village or LR hub. I am competent with almost all of the weapons, but primarily a Swaxe main.
Too all the champions of MHGU what advice do you have for optimizing my time spent in this game? What weapons/styles do you find to be the best all-rounders, what items should I be farming, should I bother with deviants at this point, and what is the best way to make sure I am prepared for G Rank when it comes?
I am looking for anything other hunters wished they knew sooner. Thank you and happy hunting!
