π Relevant Posts Only
Keep it related to Monster Hunter. Plain and simple. If it's questionable, be ready to back it up.
π Respect Your Fellow Hunters
Greenhorns or oldhats, we all start somewhere in the series. Everyone is welcome.
No racism, bigotry, flaming, trolling, or any other behavior unbecoming of a guild hunter. We're here to play and discuss Monster Hunter with like-minded folks, act like it.
No "game shaming": This isn't a place for title vs title arguments. Take that to steam forums or elsewhere. Compare/contrast mechanics between games, discuss what worked or didn't and how. Devolving into flame wars of "MHX sucks, gib more MHY" will not be tolerated.
No "off-meta" shaming: having fun playing the game is the meta. Discuss strats, builds, and give suggestions, but that's all they are, suggestions.
π Original Art Only
No AI art: too easy to spam, too low effort.
Attribute original artists with links, watermarks, and mentions where available. If you don't know the source, say so.
If an internet sleuth finds a poster cribbing others' art as their own, that's a bannable offense.

How come the bow as opposed to the other ranged weapons?
lBG and HBG are pretty simple to use. Bow on the other hand is incredibly intense. Specially spread bows are super short range and you are constantly dancing next to the monster using your dodge i-frames to pump ungodly amounts of dps. Seriously a great bow player can keep something stupid like 500 dps with zero downtime.
I donβt know what dodge I-frames means lol
Bow has a switch skill called dodge bolt, while you are aiming if you press the roll/dodge button your hunter will do a short side step. During that animation there is a window where you are invulnerable to damage. So right as a monster attack you basically dodge through the attack and continue shooting. Mind you it is a strict βparryβ timing.
Not in world though. I missed that from the op too.
