umm...first and second rajang have the same health just different size. Bowing it is a lot easier and requires no practice with the bow...well sorta...

Well I gave em a good shot and I have 9 quests left, 5 of which still arent unlocked. The available ones being dual rajang, kirin, 2 black gravios, devil diablos. Managed to beat Akantor which was pretty awesome though.

I dont see how im going to beat dual rajang or devil diablos. Dual rajang I cant beat the first one in the 10 minutes and then the other arrives and im screwed. Devil diablos has waaaaaay too much health and I run out of time. But im this close with gunlance now so I'd rather not change. Any ideas? :\

re GL'ing Rajang: size changes the way you Lance/GL Rajangs due to increased body hitboxes. Get Guard+1 and be prepared to block more hippity-hops or concentrate on the hind legs and it's stomach so as to be safe from most of it's attacks.

re Devil Blos: Not dealing enough damage = there's something wrong with how you handle blos or you're using substandard equipment.

For the former, could you tell us how exactly how you handle your blos?
For the latter, I highly recommend getting high rank narga GL + Ceanataur S for Attack Up Large/Sharpness+1/Sharpening Skill Inc/def-20.

I think I was being a bit too cautious around devil blos, when he went into rage mode I pretty much just dodged. But apart from that, just cutting off the tail/horn and stabbing/shooting at the legs and underside. He can pretty much one-hit kill me while in rage mode so its a little hard to attack.

Well im currently using the narga GL (Hidden Gunlance) but with the Monoblos S set and some Howitzer gems (so Attack up Large, Gunnery King and Adrenaline +1).

[Usul]

Don't bother cutting off the horn and focus on the legs + underside. Learn to provoke Diablos' horn shove when it charges (charge->stop->shove) at you since apart from the dig, it's one of your major attack openings. Being a heavy-shield user, you should be able to provoke that move almost everytime.

Other than that, I can't give you much tips on Blos. You're better off watching some of the numerous Blos vs. Lance/GL vids out there and replicating what they do.

Regarding your equips, High rank Narga GL really comes to shine when you unlock it's purple sharpness. For the armor, if you're truly intent on using that set, I suggest dropping Gunnery King for Adrenaline+2 + Sharpening Skill Inc/some other skill. The only skill working for you in that set is Attack Up Large; Adrenaline+1 is nigh useless and Gunnery King isn't really worth it considering that Narga GL only shoots normal shots, and you shouldn't be shelling much in this fight anyway.

I just remembered as well, LBB+'s can help you a lot. If you can set it up properly, you can use it as a damage dealer w/ sonic bomb effect.

Dual Rajang down

Managed to take care of the first one using pitfall traps and LBBs. He was still walking around at 40:18 and I just died. So I ran in there hoping to end him quickly, one stab and he fell down dead

The second one was easy after that.

[Gallara]

That's great! Good job teknoe! :-D

Nope i give up. Devil diablos still has waaaay too much health, whatever I try (with gunlance) and always makes it to the 50 minute mark. 2 Black Gravios isnt too hard, I always manage to kill one, but the constant lasers/exploding always gets me in the end. Kirin is plain ridiculous, especially when he goes into the cave with 2 bullfangos :|

Maybe ill beat them in a few weeks when im less enraged by the game :| But for now, im too hyped for mhp3, it just cant ship fast enough D:

Unless anybody would be up for some Kai? Mine needs to be set up again, but itd be nice to get to G rank.

[Tyki Mikk]

I suggest Hammer or LS to branch out to

LS is pretty easy to learn, and fun (imo)
Hammer is just plain fun,
For Range, i go Bow, i like the looks of Bows better than BGs

Use a hunting horn or hammer Kirin, nothing's nicer then to bash a DCO on a Kirin's head. For blos, you should try flash spamming, it's a last resort and I think it's all right to do so because it's not that you can't fight him it's that he has too much health.
