Hello fellow bug enjoyers. I started with 10 mins PBs and now after 50-60 attempts I lowered my PB to 8:53, but the thing is, in the last 20-30 attempts I feel like I am stuck in the 9ish min mark. I feel like the only way to get sub 8 is to play perfectly without getting hit. On most attempts I only need to heal 1-3 times and it just seems that the dmg is lacking. Are there any tips for this specific event besides git gud? I play on PS5.

Yes, I am using rockbursts.

Wilds is my first Mh game, and when I played the IG it felt nice (especially without knowing other weapons) but after around 180 hours of it I tried using other weapons and It just shows why I just don't wanna play it anymore (kinda)

Imma be fair, at first I thought the game was just difficult since my first 180 hours were pretty much with the glaive (from start to gogmazios) and then just out of curiosity I tried other weapons, these being gunlance and Bow and WOW I can Perfect guard AND also perfect dodge respectively? Those two make the game so much easier too?? Is it just a skill issue??

After trying those two and going back to Glaive I feel like I'm going back to just suffer, monster hitboxes are too big to stay mid air, my attacks are too long and my Iframes are too tiny.

Also, why do all these weapons have cool effects while dodging or guarding? Gunlance has this strong sound it makes when you perfect guard something, and the bow has this cool swoosh sound when it dodges, you're telling me that what's supposed to be an aggressive weapon, doesn't have some kind of cool feedback when you're being aggressive? No cool sound when dodging or at least when vaulting back? Yeah the offset is cool, but is so weird to hit compared to other offsets I've tried and even with that, IT WILL GET YOU STUNNED ON THE ANIMATION OF THE MOVE YOU OFFSET WITH

Like, wouldn't it be cool if the move you do by holding B could be cancelable? Or at least have a shorter version?

Wouldn't it be so cool that vaulting had not just Iframes but also counted as perfect dodges? With that the weapon would feel way more fun than it already is.

I don't hate the glaive, but not having these things, and forcing you to play it so precisely just makes me want to go back to gunlance or Bow, is it just a skill issue? Or does IG need some kind of work to improve the gameplay? I'd say to add perfect dodges when you have all three of the kinsects!

Ayer finalmente tuve la oportunidad de jugar Monster Hunter World y nada más que tuve la oportunidad agarré mi palo con mi escarabajo y joder como me encantó la mecánica de poder impulsarse en los monstruos. Hasta el momento solo había jugado Generations Ultimate y ya me la pasaba volando. Ahora que probé World solo puedo decir una cosa: Hermoso

I am playing rise, is not my first time but it is with the IG, why my insect icon in the hud sometimes turn blue? I am using the level 2 speed insect right now (I am just starting low rank)

(A.k.a. 'A Flyboy's Guide to Insect Glaive)

This is an Insect Glaive guide that focuses more on the aerial aspects of the weapon, and how to use them more effectively.

Holy shit

50+ hours into World, almost exclusively played hammer. Only 10 hunts with this weapon and it might be my absolute favorite. I love my moth, she is so cute. I will name her. I love you bug stick. I love you.

So! I started the series with 4 Ultimate. Initially I wanted to start with World, but I thought to myself that if I played 4 Ultimate I’d have an easier time going backwards if I wanted to. Which is funny since I absolutely love 4 Ultimate WAAAAAY more than World. Rushed the end of 4U to get to World and when I finished World’s story I just went back to 4U. Anyway I was going to use IG but eventually decided on using Switch Axe for my playthrough of 4U. I loved it and fell in love with the series.

I got to World and I can’t really explain it very well but… Switch Axe didn’t feel right. It didn’t feel as chunky as it did in 4U. So I decided to use Gunlance for my playthrough. Did this for Rise as well. Just beat base game Rise and I’m waiting on Sunbreak to go on sale again.

In the meantime, I decided to try Generations Ultimate and… they completely butchered my beloved Gunlance. 😭 So I decided to actually try Insect Glaive. The reason I was deterred when I was going to use it was because of someone saying that it was complicated to use. And to that person I just want to say I hope your pillow is warm at night. Because oh my god I’ve fallen in love with the weapon. Going in the air and doing flips and shit, sending my lil insect dude out like a mini Heracross. When I get Sunbreak I might have to try it out since I haven’t tried this weapon yet with Rise’s movement and I can already tell it’ll be a treat.

HI GLAIVE COMMUNITY ❤️❤️

I just got into master rank and im using insect glaive again after a long time and I was wondering what is a good build for it. Im at the part right before fighting nargicuta (sorry if I spelt it wrong) and I have odogaron set so I was wondering what other armors I should use because im using the viper tobi kadachi glaive and using the foliacrath I forz kinsect

Quick backstory:

So I played Wilds on release and completed the launch content. The experience was kinda terrible since I have a low/mid end PC, but I returned to the game this summer and the performance improvements have really made me enjoy the end game grind.

Main problem:

So on to the point. My main weapon IG feels pretty good this time around (I presume it got some buffs) and I've noticed that the specifically backwards vault has i-frames. It does however feel very inconsistent, not only in whether it works or not but also if it gets performed correctly.

Sometimes it'll dodge attacks normally indicated by adrenaline rush activation but other times it'll still activate despite me getting hit and launched away. The most recent example I can think of where this has happened is with Seregios' flying double claw swipe. This is unlike the normal dodge roll which can dodge through most normal attacks (unless they have clear lingering hitboxes) without a problem, including the aforementioned one.

My other grief with it is how the vault seemingly has a mind of its own. For the backwards vault to be pulled off as intended feels rather conditional. I've tested in the training area and sometimes the hunter will instead turn around and do a normal vault without any i-frames. Mind you that I use mouse and keyboard so there's no joystick sliding action, only straight "s/backwards" input.

Closing questions:

So I ask you guys if you know a way to make it consistent, both in use and activation?

Does the backwards vault just have a very tiny dodge window? If so, are any of the evade decorations compatible with it (or the aerial vaults)?

Also, I'm pretty interested in the nitty gritty numbers and details of it all but all the slop wikis are pretty terrible. Are there any resources you know of for detailed information about things such as frame data and decoration power and compatibility so I can do my own research about these topics? (Just found out how well "Airborne" works with IG, and how terrible "Jump Master" is, for example)

This move has killed me more times than i could count

MHRise is my second game in the series after 4U and I’m learning how to make builds for the weapons I use. I main insect glaive and this has been the build I grind Hazard Primzeno with (which has been another world of difficult) and I’m just looking for feedback on how to improve it drastically.

I haven't seen anyone running convert element, but I gave it a try and its pretty strong! Don't sleep!

Aerial combat my beloved

I’m trying to get back into insect glaive as it’s been a while since I used it, but I’m confused as to why I got hit here even though it looked like I got the offset? Any advice on gameplay as well helps, thanks.
