Summer 2024: Playing SnS (learning LS) in Monster Hunter Now and just started up MHStories on Switch. I don't plan on making MHS vids until end game or so. Mostly MHN SnS end game play!
I'm really happy they did this update, hoping I catch you in one of these sometime! 🙌

The gist of the enemies. Armoured Bokoblin: They have armour that can resist bladed weapons. Use hammers. Boss Bokoblin: They can command normal Bokos, but are pretty slow in combat when not armed with a one-handed weapon. Bokos under their command will get angry if you headshot the Boss.

Hmmm i noticed in the video, the 2 attempts which you attributed it being on you, i get the same thing happen to me sometimes where i wait for the attack in order to back hop (holding down guard) but then my character releases guard and doesn't perform the action, resulting in getting hit. I HATE when this happens 😢 Is it due to the fact that when being locked on, your character will turn towards that targeted part if the monster moves, hence the "back" angle relative to your character switches and makes it so the input doesn't register?

@lhuce758625 күн бұрын
Excellent question - the main reason I'm doing bhops instead of dodges is because my timing with them is 10x better with them. With limited solo exposure to Jho (due to his volatile mechanic) and lots of bhopping, it's just what I am better at. Perfect dodging is probably the more ideal, optimal min/max strategy but sometimes you just gotta work with what you got :) My channel isn't necessarily "Here's the optimal way to do things, copy me!"
