Little Tips?

Might be old news to some of you, but bear with me. The greatsword is slow and powerful, yes? I use it quite a lot, and when fighting things like Vdrome, Gdrome, and Idrome, there's nothing more annoying than lining up a swing and having the damn thing jump away from you.

On top of that, when you injure the thing, it tries to run to an area more populated by its kind, and example being in Forest & Hills, in area 3, it'll run to area 10 where there's lots of bushes and Vprey to knock you down while you're trying to line up a swing.

Well, pressing the select button makes you kick. Myself...I never found a practical use for this except to wake up a stunned or sleeping person, maybe that IS the purpose. I certainly wouldn't go kicking bombs and such with it, nor would it be my attack of choice against...well...anything.

But with the great sword out and ready to swing, your kick is MUCH faster. Meaning, say you knock a drome down, roll closer to it, and you have your weapon out and you want to swing but you can see that the drome will jump clear of the blade when you swing, press select, the speed of your little kick sends it reeling for that precious second and allows you to hit it and hit it hard. I managed to kill dromes without them even getting a jump in edgewise...I just ran in, hit a few times, kicked, hit more time, and every time I needed an extra attack, I kicked it.

If you already knew this, or this is old news, sorry...I'm a little slow on the up-take here. I just figured it out. Lol!

Nope that's a fine tip, I'm sure someone would find the information useful.

Hre's one from me
While using a bow, you don't roll after shooting an arrow or striking with a bolt. instead you make a brief but fast back hop. By tapping X repeatedly you can make a series of fas hop backs. Where this back hop seems to hamper your ability to move out of harms way, it's actually quite effective to evade attacks this way.

Edit: LOL I go carried away, this is MHF's section and MMHF didn't have bows! lol Excuse me.

I have tried kicking a herbivore to death. Took ages, got bored, so bashed his face in with my great sword.
Kicking has got really weak attack.
But if you get the felyne thing for kicking it massively increases your attack.

i have a tip but a risky one (must have mhf1 to do).u shouldnt probably use this unless you are making a character.look at a weapon to make like the ravager sword for example.see wat u need to make it.then delete the character (thats why it has to be done in the beggining) and go get monster hunter freedom 1 and mine the type of ore.it goes quicker to find wat u want bc of how many new ore types there are in mhf2.

That's a good tip, just remember to back up the save on your PC first...

Kicking deals 25 damage (raw) no attr... and peices any armour

The gs kick is much faster than normal....

I love kicking Kelbi to death

i like kicking aptonoth to death with 4 people >
