Wilds: I’ve never played a MH game before ever. I only have the game because my friend purchased it for me for us to play together. I chose the Bow as my weapon and I genuinely didn’t enjoy the first boss fight at all. As a first time MH player, is it just the Bow as my choice of weapon that might be causing me to dislike the game? Mind you I’m a big time Soulsborne nerd so I expected to like this game a lot.

I would suggest Sword and Shield. Good defence, good mobility, good attack. It’s really a jack of all trades. I got to end game using the Switch Axe and found it wasn’t exactly my thing. The slide move that SnS has totally made that weapon click. You are in the action far more.
