So my last two runs of the quest have been successful, using the Switch-Axe and then the Hunting Horn. I think it's in part because I'm getting better at this, and I honestly have no clue what I was doing, but I'm sort of liking the hunting horn as an option. Just have the Bow and Gunlance left to try out now.

Yay! Peer pressure!

@DF:I like that you're exploring all your options. It'll make our hunting party that much more diverse. The horn is more useful in multiplayer than it is in singleplayer, though. The horn plays more for the support role, boosting and healing teammates.

Yeah, I know it's meant as support but on the same hand it's one of the three weapons I've been able to complete the quest with. I've gone through all the weapon types now, and I think I've got it down to the following ones; Dual Blades, Great Sword, Hammer, Hunting Horn, Switch Axe, Light Bowgun, Bow. Lances are still a maybe, as I think I started to get the hang of it with the Gunlance a bit. The Hammer is another option, but I think we've enough Hammer users in our group. :P

The Dual Swords I'm not sure are maybe the best, but they're my usual style. Hit fast and hard. The Great Sword I liked more than I expected when I tried it. It can chop stuff, so it could be handy. Hunting Horn, as I said, is one of the weapons I did the best with, and yay for support! Switch-Axe isn't my favorite, but I did good with it, so maybe. Light Bowgun's nice, but I think my preference in ranged weapon is the Bow. Now having said all that, I think I can narrow it down further to four, pending how I do with the Lance on another try. Light melee: Dual Swords. Heavy Melee: Great Sword. Support: Hunting Horn. Ranged: Bow. I think from what has been said so far that my choices also fit nicely in with what everyone else is using.

That is certainly a diverse enough list. You need a list like that. as no weapon is effective on all monsters (Except the bow, bow-gun, and hunting horn due to the aiming and support respectively). Now the issue will lie in collecting an effective list of each of those weapons so you can take advantage of power and elemental damage. I mainly play hammers with lances, longswords, and greatswords/switchaxes as secondaries. I believe I've crafted and upgraded about 9-10 hammers, 6 lances, 3 greatswords, 5 longswords, and 3 switchaxes. That is A LOT of materials, and a lot of quests to get them. This game is a GRIND

Yeah, from what I'd seen I figured that would be the case, both with the diversity and grinding. Still, if you need to grind for stuff, going out and hunting stuff certainly isn't the worst it could be.

Also, after having played around with the lance this morning, I think I'm going to add it to my list as my main weapon.

I tried to like it, I really did. It's a cool game & all, but it's just not my game. Didn't bother to try the Heavy Bowgun or normal Bow, but the only weapon I didn't find a hassle was the Switch-axe, which was pretty awesome.

Yeah, there is a bit of a learning curve to get the hang of sheathing/unsheathing, dodging and getting into the right positions, and all the little differences between the weapon types. The demo itself also doesn't do anything to try and help explain the controls, though there are some tutorial videos you can easily get to via the e-shop. Even then it still took me a bit to get the hang of it, but at this point it's fairly smooth sailing.

So tonight was the night. I got my money. I got to wal-mart.
They didn't have it.

...
So I made my first purchase from the eShop and am downloading MH3U as I type. :)
Obviously I won't be playing it tonight, but come tomorrow my killing spree shall begin! :D

And likewise I would gladly join you two on any hunt... within reason! I've only just started, after all. :P

I've spent much of the day building up my stores of items and forging/upgrading with a couple quests thrown in. Right now I'm working on upgrading my lance and I've got what I need in items except for two carpenterbugs. Any chance you guys know off hand if there's any specific area they tend to turn up?

Ah, I see! And sure, I'd gladly take some company.
Although, still being new to the game, how do we do that, exactly?

EDIT: Okay, yeah, company would certainly be appreciated. I just went out to the desert on a gathering quest by myself since you'd gone offline, and thank Kronos I remembered to bring those five potions.
