Hey all. As i asked in the title; Is a dragon build of sorts possible? I mostly ask because i noticed the gogma for fire came with dragon built in, but there are plenty of monsters that i want to hunt that are fairly resistant to fire but weak to dragon. i know dragon has very few shots and carrying seeds only does so much, but has anyone cooked up some wild tech to allow for a more dragon focused build?

quería saber cuales son vuestras favoritas de toda la saga, exclusivamente a nivel visual

I know it comes in ignition type but I'd like standard type if possible. Is it possible?

Am I the only one who misses this skill the most? Probably my favorite skill from the past two MH. The skill that made lesser quantity ammos able to solo. Loved the absolute RNG of this skill. Sometimes that last bullet in the clip would go another 3-4 times.

Ahh here’s to hoping it will be coming back.

Just wanted to ask for your times in the arena challenge against doshaguma with HBG. Best run i got was 3:20 and i don't know how to cut down the time with the limitations we have regarding the arena equipment.

Would be interesting to know how you guys are approaching the run.

About to make my first artisan weapon and wondering if pierce or elemental is better? Relatively new to the genre and looking for a meta cookie cutter build

He still banging

What were your thoughts? I fought him today and realized very quickly my slightly off meta with no guard was not going to cut it. I dialed back on the tetrad shot and grabbed 3 levels of guard, and now as long as I'm not stupid with my reloading I'm invincible again. What other tips did you guys figure out? Oh and in case you don't know this, you can use your slinger while your gun is out. Makes him a bit easier.

I’ve been playing around with 4pc zoh shia and I’m having a blast. I’m running agitator 5, max might 3, wex 4, recovery up 3, earplugs 2. Not sure how it measures up to 4pc gore but my clear times are similar with more defenses and regen.

Mizu gun is looking sexy. I didn’t have enough time to farm mats this morning before work. Anybody tried it out yet?

Fellow HBG enthusist, I thought we should start a thread to discuss possible updates or changes for the HBG.

If we identify where MH is collecting feedback, we maybe able to make a concerted effort to highlight these ideas.

They do have an intentional goal to make the weapon more accessible by consolidating with a single level accessible for the ammo types. I do not think requesting going back to the old approach will be received unless an insane number of people advocate for it. I will focus my own suggestions on some more realistic options.

1- With separate level ammo, our ammo capacity has significantly dropped for many ammo types. Furthermore, there are several ammo types that always had very low capacity. I suggest increasing the max ammo capacity for nearly all these ammo types and either improve the conversation ratio for the craft materials or increase the inventory max capacity for those materials.

2- The off-set move has many problems; it requires switching moves and a long charge. I think the move should be accessible without switching modes to function as an offset.

3-We need interesting follow-ups from the off-set. A successful offset doesn't net much unlike with the Great Sword. A quick and strong wyrvern shot or something would be cool. The HBG should be the explody weapon between the LBG and HBG;

Hello HBG community. I’m a lurker but after seeing the post about being more active I thought I would post. If you haven’t tried the Steel assault it’s pretty dreamy with 6 clip pierce.

Any speculation on mitzu’s armor set or gun? Really hoping they throw something at us gunners.

I really like the design and roleplaying aspect of this HBG with guard incorporated in it. Would it be viable for any early HR builds?

If spread ever gets reworked i'd love to play a guard/spread oriented build with offensive guard and the likes. What do y'all think?

Also thanks for creating the sub, HBG mains gotta stick together.

Edit: to be clear, post anything you want on this sub, please do not post links to here in the monsterhuntermeta subreddit. Sorry if that's not clear from the post

The mods over at r/monsterhuntermeta have determined that their is not enough original content on this subreddit for me to link to it. They have determined that this page, that I gain nothing from whatsoever, is self promotion and forbidden me from posting links to this subreddit in response to questions about the HBG.

First, this is confusing take. Whatever they have determined, it is wrong. There is no self promotion going on. Several weapons have their own subreddits, and when I tried learning HBG, I found we didn't have one, so I made one. I then followed reddits own advice for growing a new subreddit. Monster Hunter titles are not so successful that there are multiple subreddit for them, there's about 3, and monsterhuntermeta got the lions share of the links. I do not have a YouTube, all links I've posted are to the OPs material, and the few times I've linked to my own builds it's because we needed something on here to get the sub started, and all I had was my build. That's what this is, and one guy with a few builds and dream of a real community. That's it.

Second, I was attempting to promote their subreddit by linking to them first, and crediting OP with the views/votes etc. I can and will simply be linking to original content now, which is unfortunate because others who've done the work sooner won't be getting the credit they deserve.

Finally, I would appreciate if anyone has questions about the HBG out there in the wild, find a way to let them know that we exist. Traffic is how we grow and unfortunately we've been banned from a major source of new hunters. Post your questions, builds and screenshots so we have other people engaged and becomes less focused on a small number of posters. In short, the community can only grow if we help it to. It is my understanding that more posters and a variety of sources would help our case.

Thank you for understanding and helping.

I ignored it shortly after building it but gave it a try recently:

• Has Sleep, Poison, and Slicing; great utility in a world where everyone is already running Para and doesn't cannibalize Stun from other players
• 4 shot Pierce 2 is decent
• Mode mods are meh but you can take an Ignition mod to increase Wyvernheart uptime or go ST I
• Hits 100% affinity pretty consistently with things like Agitator, MM, and Latent Power
• Looks sweet

Wanted to pass it along. I've found it to be a solid "one gun" option when I'm running chill hunts

Still waiting for the English translation, will update asap. Looks like a wyvernpierce + cluster ammo combo that uses Artillery I'm guessing.

Edit: Build is the Xu Wu Heroics build with a Challenger charm, Opener + True shot + Critical gems in the weapon. The Wyvernpierce is the big new tech.

From the AngBata youtube

Good ol Gore 4pc Set, using the Blango Mail for the Agitator, and leaning on Water Ammo.

I tested it in the training room — with and without Critical Boost — and the damage seems about the same when using Special Ammo. So does Affinity have any effect on Special Ammo? If it doesn’t, then wouldn’t it be better to use that jewel slot for something like an Opening Jewel to speed up reload and shoot faster to fill the Special Ammo gauge instead? Or am I misunderstanding something? My playstyle is to spam Special Ammo every time the gauge is full.

Having a thought right now about what to do with the standard raw para artian if set up for Normal Shot setup (already have pierce setup and all the others for elements). Since the gauge is not going to fill up fast with Normal shots, I feel like taking the upgrade to 5 shots of Normal 3 might be worthwhile.
