I play MHF 1 & MHF 2, on no. 2 I am on 4 star quests and on no.1 I am on 2 star quests

Online?
No, only Ad hoc, I can't work Xlink, it's too complicated

I like doing guild quests with my mates.

If anyone one can give it to me in idiot's terms then please do as I'd be happy to get online

Multiplayer role
I act as the sniper and the medic, I do like to get up close sometimes though and get some normal S level 3 in wyvern's faces. I also do a lot of combining.

Sniper
I love sniping, it is what I do, I have brilliant aim which is only helped by my amazing hunting partners, they can distract the monsters while I fill it full of Crag S or normal S level 3, My hunting partners Meg and Arran use a Long sword (Meg) and a Hunting Horn (Arran) his username on MH wiki is User:V-drome, be sure to check out his page. They also lay shock traps while I distract the monsters then we all work together getting as many hits in as possible, we're not the best team in the world, we fail at a few things (stupid plesioth) but we come through and don't blame each other for dying (because thats just egotistical)and we always help each other out

Combiner
basically I make things like ancient potions, Max potions and give them to everyone, seeming as I sold just about everything in my item box, I have the financial means to do so. I also like to make my own bullets, either buying materials or going on gathering quests, for my main source for powerful bullets I rely on Trenya bringing back Large bone husks. Combining can be annoying whe you've paid 500z for a Kelbi horn and garbage is produced but garbage has it's uses (hot pepper + garbage) *wink* ;) but it is satisfying to know that your team lives because of your efforta

Medic
Although we help each other out I often bring max potions and ancient potions to some battles, nutrients and mega nutrients if I'm low on cash also herbal medicine is a must for going to the swamp at night.

The Snowy Mountains
Aah, the snowy mountains, the place where beginners flourish, from killing your first popo to your first tigrex. The rewards in treasure hunting are unbelivable! Especially for us gunners as all ammo is on the house, in fact everything is! Anyway, recently I found a clever strategy that can help get treasures on your guild card and, in the words of the Pokke farm hippie "net you a plethora of pokke points". I will list it in steps: NOTE If you get an embroided flag go to the secret area in area 8, face away from the Daora skin, climb the other rock face and you will see a small mound of earth, place your flag here to gain 3000 TREASURE POINTS!!!
 * 1) Take all the things you need (don't forget the hot drinks)
 * 2) Head to area 3
 * 3) mine at the crack (you should get Barrel Bombs)
 * 4) Keep mining until you have a lot of bombs or until the pickaxe breaks
 * 5) go to area 4
 * 6) blow up the rocks at the far end with two barrel bombs and a small barrel bomb
 * 7) head to the bee hive and collect old pickaxes (if you still have your pickaxe then use it on the mining spot in the corner)
 * 8) head to area 8
 * now, follow this carefully, head up through area 7, as you come into area 8 turn right to see a boulder, blow it up, crawl through the hole (which is usually open) and climb up the rock wall, at the top you will find a Kushala Daora skin, mine it's claw with the old pickaxes you collected
 * 1) You will get high priced Items such as the Furaimond or the Pokke Quartz (GC treasure)
 * 2) head to area 2 (you must be at the top)
 * 3) go to the edge of the cliff and on the far left there will be a ledge, drop down onto it.
 * 4) go to the wall on the right hand side of the ledge and face the left side
 * 5) take a running jump off the far left side of the ledge
 * 6) if you did it right you should land on another ledge with a bee hive on it, search to find things like Blango Flurry Ball and the Balngonga apple (GC treasure)
 * 7) Kill giadrome
 * 8) get the two carves
 * 9) farcast back to base, press O next to Treshi
 * 10) Go bug hunting and fishing in area 1 (don't spend too much time on fishing)
 * 11) Kill things like giaprey for Dragonite and the dragon rock.
 * 12) Go back to Treshi and give him the treasure
 * 13) Collect the pawprint stamp
 * 14) deliver the pawprint stamp
 * 15) get loads of pokke points!

Gunning
Hi, I thought I might just share some useful tips with beginner to intermediate hunters on gunning. I use a heavy bowgun with a wide range of ammo so some of this may not apply to you

Choosing the right gun
On most walkthroughs you will find something like this "there is no right weapon, you choose what you think is right" this was NO help to me when I first started so here are a few of my recommendations for beginners (all bowguns are light unless stated otherwise)


 * Rapidcaster (heavy)
 * Injector Cannon (heavy)
 * Shooter's Barrel
 * Tail string
 * Desert Storm

These are just a few that I have experience with, I especially recommend the Injector cannon if you have the materials. I prefer heavy to normal.

Ammunition
This (obviously) is crucial, always have normal S lv 1 although we all think it is the worst thing ever... EVER!!! Normal S lvl 2 is just as important, and when you start getting to harder levels with more wyverns I never leave without Normal S lvl 3, elemental bullets are you're friend, that is why I recommend the Injector Cannon, it allows so many bullet variations which is really rare. It allows all bullet types except for Freeze S and Clust S, these can be helpful if fighting solo but it is a small sacrifice for the variety of bullets.

List of important bullets :
 * Normal S lv1
 * Normal S lv2
 * Normal S lv3
 * Crag S
 * Elemental bullets
 * Demon S (multiplayer)
 * Armour S (mulyiplayer)
 * Paint S

Here's how you make them
 * Buy From Item lady
 * Buy From Item lady
 * Rumblefish + Huskberry
 * Buy From Item lady
 * Buy From Item lady
 * Power Seed + Huskberry/sm bone husk
 * Armour Seed + Huskberry/sm bone husk
 * Paintberry + huskberry/sm bone husk

Upgrading
So, you've got your gun, you've made your ammo. What now? well, if you want a good gun, you need to upgrade it, now, unfortunatley you cannot upgrade like other weapons. It's a lot like upgrading armour, without the armour spheres. I am telling you now SPEND AS MUCH MONEY AS YOU NEED ON YOUR GUN, DON'T SACRIFICE! Don't be skimpy with the cash, if your low, go to pokke farm ( a guide to Pokke farm is on this link: ) or go on a treasure hunting quest, If you're just after cash I have my own strategy:


 * 1.Go to the offline gathering hall
 * 2.Talk to Treshi (the guy in the right hand corner in yellow)
 * 3.Initiate the Snowy mountains quest
 * 4.Find the Giadrome
 * 5.Kill the Giadrome
 * 6.Carve twice
 * 7.Run back to camp/use farcaster
 * 8.Go to the blue box and fetch the Pawprint stamp
 * 9. Go to Treshi
 * 10.Hand him what you collected
 * 11. Go to the red box and press O

You will now have earned 2000z at least (if you didn't die)

anyway, (hope tht helped) now you have the monney, we can move on to the process

Go to the crafting shop and talk to the man, select weapon - improve weapon then select your bowgun. Now, before we do anything else keep selecting the level up option until it disappears that means your bowgun is almost at maximum attack.

The second thing you can do is add a power barrel, this will increase your power and lessen the drift (drift is where you are about to get the crucial hit on a wyvern and it blows two miles to the right)however you do sacrifice the defence of a shield, which I shall talk about next.

The shield is always good for going against something that roars, especially things like Khezu, Monoblos and Tigrex as it blocks the roar most of the time, it has also saved me from many a wyvern attack when I get carried away and start shooting loads. For example, I was against a Blangonga and got so carried away I forgot about his snowball attack, I knew he was going to do the attack and avoided the main attack but as it split into the shards, one hit me, however I was saved from snowman status and being knocked off a ledge, I lost a bit of stamina but that saved me from dying in a crucial battle. However the shield obviously doesn't have the power like the power barrel does so, really, your choice I use a shield, only because I can get clumsy sometimes.

The final thing I want to talk about in this section is zoom scopes. Zoom scopes are great in my opinion, it allows me to shoot from ledges where most attacks can't hit me, again a sacrifice (why can't they let us have everything?!?)is that if a wyvern attacks in zoom mode, you have to be quick to move, again I use a zoom scope, I'll tell you this. Do attatch a zoom scope because it is cheap to put on and if you don't need it don't use it. it's like a condom, it's better to have one and not need it than need one and not have it.

So, to summarise:
 * Level up
 * Power barrel/Shield
 * Zoom Scope/Fixed scope

Fighting
So, you've spent loads on your shiny new gun, upgraded it, bought/made all the great ammo and have strode confidently into the battlefield and come out on a stretcher made of bone and wicker pushed by felynes who get their job satisfation out of tipping you off in a crude manner. Why won't my awesome new gun work? well, the reason, if you converted is probably that you're not used to the methods of gunning, so let me lay down some basics. (YAYY!! more numerous bullet points :))


 * if you're having a tough time from weaker animals but don't want to waste ammo, press triangle + circle to use a melee attack.
 * Don't waste ammo, you'll appreciate this when you're left with just normal S lv1.
 * If a monster runs toward you, get out of the way, don't keep shooting with powerful bullets thinking it'll flinch before it gets to you, you can't take that chance
 * Use taunts/flinches to your advantage (e.g Daimyo hermitaur trips up, kut ku drags his foot along the ground and lowers his neck)
 * Try to stay a distance from the monster you're fighting
 * don't get cocky if it's in rage mode, that doesn't mean it's weak, as some people thing, in fact it's stronger.
 * don't play games with the wyverns, they bite
 * don't risk your health, farcast back to camp if you need it (your brain has this funny feeling when your about to die)
 * Combine, use the world around you to make stuff.

if you follow these rules you should have a considerably better time using the gun.

If you feel you need more help, leave a query on my talk page.
