Finally hit HR49 this morning and took out the Tempered Kirin, what a cock sucker. Was able to take him out on my second run thanks to bunch of prep time reading/watching strategies and gearing up. My build going in had 33 Thunder Resistance, and mixed with Element Resist(L), got that boosted to 48 so I wasn't getting 1 shot by his thunder strikes. Having Blight Resist+3 and Evasion+5 helped a ton. The first run was more frustraiting than anything. The first area I encountered him had a huge slope on it, so if you had the high ground and rush in for an attack, I ended up in a slide and changing my attack to the jump instead of a standard GS overhead swing. He stayed at the bottom of the hill and I ended up carting twice before he moved on. The last life went a lot smoother and got carted the last time after he ran off to sleep. Second attemped went a lot smoother as I caught him in a lower area for the first encounter and fought him on flatter ground.

Looking at all the mats needed for Augmentations makes me depressed.

Great job on Kirin. Location is super important fighting this asshole. He gets much easier now and don't think he's hard anymore.

It's a complete grind fest shitshow. Concentrate on 1 or 2 builds and go from there...

so you unlucked Augmentations right after your lvl 49 Kirin quest ?

I believe that's the trigger. HR49 is locked until you take out Kirin and it seemed he jumped me a full level. I hit 49 and already had my build set for Kirin. I failed my first attempt and cleared on my second and jumped right to HR50 and unlocked the tutorials for augmenting gear.

Waiting to get a Dragoncore Ore to level mine to 3. Last rank needs a Xeno gem, and have been sitting on one decoding what to burn it on. Xeno weapons seem pretty meh so just sat it, glad I did now.

Just hit HR50 and read that the ore drops from tempered elder dragons, so should finish up soon.

I was at like HR 55 before the augmenting was unlucked you'd think with the rng involed in getting hero streamstones and gleaming streamstones the lvl 49 quest would unluck it right away. It wasn't until I started to grind tempered elder dragons that I got a warrior's streamstone and that finally unlucked it.

to be more specific, i didn't get the tutorials when I beat Kirin, but the augmentation opened up at HR50 right after Kirin and once I selected augmentation I got hit the turtorials. I'm still HR50 and augmented my eye patch.

Got my Rocksteady Mantle this morning, pretty psyched about that. Vaal Hazak usually has pretty quick clear times, but the first two SoS flairs I sent out I picked up a bunch of idiots and after Odogaron went down Vaal would cart a bunch of the group members. It's like they were so eager to clear the quest all common sense went out the window. On the 3rd run I went after Vaal first and took him down pretty smooth with the group. Then one guy carted twice on Odo and I started getting nervous, but he ran to sleep right after and we trapped him.

I was so eager to clear HR49 and take down Kirin, that i didn't spend any time farming tracks so I got pretty low on tempered quests. My last one for Nerg unlocked a Tempered Kirin which was pretty nice. It was only for 15 min, but with one run collecting unicorn farts I was able to get 5 more tempered elder quests. I have 3 more investigations left so I'm sure I can rack up quite a few more.

Think I’m done till Deviljho. I don’t even get excited for hero or sullied stones anymore because of the grind for mats to use them.

What I'm hoping doesn't happen is they drop a big update and G-Rank goes live, unlocking new armor/weapons that completely dwarfs augmented High Rank gear.

I'm hoping they make it so the augmented High Rank gear is used as the base equipment, and G-Rank materials build off of that. We'll see I guess. I did read that there is another updated scheduled for April and it's expected to be rather large. Hoping for the Tundra Biome by not getting my hopes up. Plus, after this weekend I will probably be moving over to Ni No Kuni II and just pop over to MHW to get the weekly bounties done to have a stock of gold tickets.

This makes me want to read the rest of the thread to see what other strange activities you get up to in that World <45>

Got another attack deco, apparently they’re the rarest drops in the game. I audibly roared with excitement.

 

[Dinkin_Flicka]

I'm kind of surprised that Attack decorations are as rare as they are given that the Attack Charm is fairly easy to make and upgrade. I feel like I didn't even need a Gem until Rank 3. I would have guessed something like Handicraft or Weakness exploit would be the most rare decorations.

I'm not at the point in the game where I'm min/maxing my builds and need specific decorations to complete a build, but when I get there I'm not above save scumming and using cloud saves to meld decorations and reloading as many times as needed to get the specific decoration I'm looking for.

I read they secretly patched the save scumming, could be wrong though. Source is Twitch chat.

Blah! That sucks. I could see it for the daily reward vouchers since it saves your content to their servers after you load them, but my decoration inventory is local to my PS4. I use the PS+ cloud saves, but I could do it completely off line with a thumb drive. Going to have to test that next time I log in.

What’s a good bow build ? Pretty dam confusing I’m on rank 60 can’t find any of the hero gems and stuff. My armor is weak as hell.

I’m changing from great sword style .

Crits and attack boost, apparently constitution and marathon runner are good stats too. I found bow to be easy mode
