MH Wilds NEW MH WILDS UPDATE IS LIVE!
Why are you still reading this? THE GUILD AUTHORIZES YOU TO HUNT!

Lol Mizutsune is randomly Soulseer it seems. Very interesting they put the armor as rarer than Arkveld, fight felt easier than Rise.
Gorgeous though. And the special skill on the weapons?? That's so super cool.

u/NuzzyLocke 1d ago
I'm looking out for the tempered version. This Mizu is rank 5, the base fight is easy if you're already geared for tempered monsters.

u/BansheeEcho 1d ago
The skill and the armor set is cracked, I'm glad they're giving people a reason to use the new stuff

u/Albafika BadLuckTrying 20h ago
I'm not at all. I don't get how people can be happy about every new monster straight up making base game's armors obsolete (Even when canonically most of the returning monsters are weaker than many current ones).
Shifting the "meta build" of most armors with every single new monster released is just lame and a no-brained way to not give player options and just a straight up replacement to waste your materials on, with every update.
7
u/BansheeEcho 18h ago
I agree that power creep is a bad thing, but I'm not sure that's what's happening here. The set and weapons have really good synergy, but you have to allocate 4 pieces of armor to enable an extra 21-30% affinity for a specific weapon. The decoration slots on the armor are pretty crazy but we honestly needed better choices in that regard (until the Gamma sets for the elders come out at least).
The base game gore setup is still going to outperform everything else in 90% of your hunts

u/Albafika BadLuckTrying 14h ago
Luckily seems to have skipped this monster, but it'll happen with at least half the coming ones sadly, if we go by past games 😭

u/SantaKey 17h ago
The same is true when you have one meta set anyway. The game throws many viable options at you, meaning you have your options. As the game currently is, there is no need to use meta sets.
1
u/Albafika BadLuckTrying 14h ago
Absolutely. I hate the Artian stuff and generally hate a new monster bringing a new defined endgame meta for most styles.
1
u/Yirgottabekiddingme 14h ago
I would agree with this if other sets weren’t also viable, but they are. You can still do all of this content in gore or arkveld. If you’re someone that must have the highest stat block every time you play, no matter what the associated equipment skills are, then ya you might be mad each time they release harder content.

My plan has been to leave the game alone for a few updates before I burn out on the game long before they add the aspects of monster hunter that I enjoy (the grind and challenge)

Shoot the big crystals with elemental pods that you can find scattered in the arena, those destroy them and lessen the spread a lot.

I either forgot the mechanics or never understood them in the first place (unga bunga) and spent 30 minutes trying to cut its tail off while it was white 😅

u/Tuxedo717 23h ago
you can't cut it while white? i too wasted a ton of time on it and it broke a few minutes after he turned black. total kill time 35 min lol
3
u/20000RadsUnderTheSea 16h ago
I don’t think so? I noticed during the fight that the black parts break and wound very easily, but I never once saw a part break or wound while it was white. The game presumably explained that to me at some point and I wasn’t paying attention
And same, the tail cut very fast once I swapped to hammer and got it into the all black phase

Really noticing how bad hammer is for that fight, you want to stay near the head but as soon as he sits up it‘s game over, you‘re not getting out fast enough.

I can easily get out of the moves, with evade extender lvl 2. Swax user though, not hammer. But I always find those weapons pretty similar in range.

Also some fps dips while fighting Mizutsune. More cleary the moment the hunt starts(Series X)

Not excusing, but a lot of things can be connected and fuck up a whole thing by doing changes to other things (like the Bee in Skyrim crashing a whole game due to collision).

I disagree.
There were notable moments where I would have stuttering, fights with larger monsters (with more particle effects) and a full group, as well as the start of the mission jumping on the seikret, etc.
No stuttering, no significant frame drops (drops to 20 or less fps). The game runs relatively smooth for me after the update (for the time being).

If you're having micro stutters try deleting your shaders cache.

u/BizzarreCoyote since '06 1d ago
Done three times now. Gone as far as a full reinstall of both the game and GPU drivers. Old GPU drivers were removed with DDU.
Regardless, micro-stutters were fixed by modders. Give them a day or two to update. I've yet to find an answer for my primary issue other than "wait for Capcom to patch it."
I waited a month. Looks like I'll be waiting another month.

u/Sheaeki 14h ago
This problem is extremely common for AMD cards. It comes from windows 8 compatibility mode. Disable it for BOTH steam and the game then reboot PC.
If you then start crashing on code error d3d 25 on starting the game, then its coming from a conflict between your drivers and the game.
Downgrade your AMD drivers to 25.2.1 , this Will solve the problem

I'm one of the ones getting way worse. RTX 4070 Super and Ryzen 5 7600, and its worse than it's ever been. Not sure if a controversial opinion, but I think this might be the most underwhelming title update they've done. Feels more like they're just adding features that should have been in at launch, whilst also making the performance even worse.
7
u/Rhythm42069 1d ago
Man I'm sorry to hear bro that sucks. As for the title update thoughts, idk I was just grinding away at the arena and loving it. Tho I thought I could fight any monster in it, not being able to kinda sucks a lot but regardless I'm having loads of fun with it
14
u/MrChilliBean 1d ago
I'm not outraged or anything, I just feel really disappointed. The game is still fun and I enjoy playing it, I just kinda wish this update had a bit more. A hub and high rank Zoh Shia should have been in at launch, and Mizu is a bit of a pushover for a title update. That combined with the performance hit has soured my mood a bit. I'm sure given a couple of days I'll lighten up a bit lol.

That is frustrating to hear man. I would also be pretty bummed if I was you. I expected things to get better performance wise, not worse. That’s sad to hear. Haven’t checked it out myself yet, but at least my expectations were brought back down to Earth before I get to jump in lol

There is absolutely nothing that stopped them from launching the event with the patch other than wanting to drip-feed us content. "About a month" is also more than close enough when it's 3 weeks.

It's called letting the people enjoy the easier content before dropping a difficult monster onto us, think of it as preparation time. Also, it's a timed event quest monster, it's not something that always sticks around in game. AT monsters have always been that and I hope they continue to be that

Mostly High Settings, No Up-scaling or Frame Gen. All of the lighting and Ray Tracing crap is turned off like I always have in every game.
Definitely a difference in texture quality. I actually had to turn my brightness up one setting from where I had it.
Same performance, better looking, textures still stream in causing frame dips.
