Thanks for watching everyone! If you need more tips watch my 36 tips for new players video here = kzfaq.info/get/bejne/brKklJWQrJ_QpKs.html

I personally have 60 hours in and have just been getting into the elder dragons and started realizing im not as good as i should be, your guide helps so much 😁

This guide was a MONSTER help.....but seriously. Thank you. I had watched other vids but couldn't grasp everything. I felt so lost. But the way you put things and described why you were doing them has me feeling confident in the systems for the very first time.

Being completely new to the franchise and having MH: Rise as my first title, I was completely overwhelmed with the mechanics of the game. Having Longsword as the default weapon to start with did not help either (as the counter mechanic is the bread and butter of this weapon). I had to teach myself a lot by failing countless times in hunts and runs with other players. Anyway, finally achieved HR 40 last night. Looking to improve my build using Decorations, and I stumbled into your video. Thank you so much for the helpful rundown!

I'm a new xbox player and I was just about to finely stop watching videos and just go for it but here I am lol.

Iv played all of rize and just went into sum break and this video was so good for explaining and simple to learn.I don’t even know some of the stuff you wear talking about but now I do.This video was well made and well structured 👍🏼

Nice beginner guide. I'm currently maxed on ranged and melee on Switch, happy to answer any build related questions.

THANK YOU! I'm only getting to play this now that it's on other consoles and PC and I was completely lost on how to start.

Thank you! just starting monster hunter games and this was very helpful

This was insanely helpful. Great content man. You explain everything so clearly.

Simple... learn game until rajang armour. Rinse rajang until you get it full armour. Rinse everything up to level 100, get valstrax unlocked, wear all its skin, rinse everything in the game. Get every decoration then work on a god roll talisman. See you at hr 999 and sunbreak .

Great guide! First time playing MH and looking at all the stat weights I thought i was in a college course. Your guide broke it down wonderfully for my noob brain. Thanks for taking the time to make this.

Thanks a lot. I’m at High Rank rn, and I felt like I wasn’t really been focusing much on my armor setup. I’m a newcomer to the Monster Hunter Rise and series. There is a lot to grasp with this game, but I’m really enjoying it so far.

Been on your channel since mhw youre the one who really progressed mostly compared to othee new to MH youtubers back in 2018. Btw im 2 years late on Rise cause of busy years but now im here. I missed a lot. Maybe im just the only one who is new to rise this 2023😂

Such a nicely constructed and informational video. Thanks!

Great video!! I wanted to get into Monster Hunter World back when it released, but I had a very hard time trying to learn the game. It appeared that MHR was simplified a little around the edges, so I was excited to hear it was coming to GamePass. It was still overwhelming to start, but I've been trying to learn what I can. You made this very simplified and easy to understand. Videos like this help players like me that normally wouldn't play a certain game, the chance to learn it, and enjoy the game while we play.

Thank you for this vid, it's my first Monster Hunter, and I just started, been watching some videos on youtube, but they lacked your simplicity / precision. You are clear, and it makes sense, and now I get it, thank you, @Dear Gamer.

Hopefully more console oriented builds come out for console soon as we don't have access to sunbreak yet

grateful for this video dude this helped me sm with explaining everything in game for getting attack and defense up 🐐🐐🐐

Monster hunter is now my new favorite game . With only 20 or so hour in rise and world combined . I like rise slightly more at this point , amazing games

Nice to see a brother making videos on MH! Learned a lot even though I've been playing Rise since it came out. Keep up the good work fam!

@DearGamerTV Thanks for the video. This game has a lot of mechanics and you helped make it easier to understand.

Regardless of what weapon, I must build and preferably max out crit eye/crit boost/wek ex/burst for raw and crit eye/crit elem/elem ex/burst for elememental.

This is my first Monster Hunter game that I've bought and actually played in depth, instead of only for a moment at a friends place. I'm main the hammer, kinsect glaive, switch axe, and long sword with elemental power. Then I pack on the defense and damage with decorations, as well as those protection ones that have a set chance to lower damage taken. I absolutely love using the hammer with the ko and destroyer decorations, and just bully the monsters. When it comes to kinsect glaives, I try running blast with them as often as I can when I use them.

Super helpful. I’m about 22 hours in and hadn’t really figured out much of this

If your using a weapon with a shield get guard up level 3 it allows you to block every attack and take pretty much zero damage its very good on weapons like lance and gunlance

Really helpful resources, thank you for the video!

Thanks DG the good skills are different then world so this really helps

Gaddaym. It's been a-freaking-while since the last time I saw you. I am glad as ever that you are still around. Cheers!

Just started on MH Rise recently after i got the game for the switch...its hard still to understand stuff i cant decide the best weapon for me yet but for now im using sword and shield cuz kinda feels safe in some way but i like super fast weapons so im torn between my two playstyles...the super fast attacker and the fortress if theres a weapon with good middle ground in those areas i aprecciate all help i can get to go all in this game.

First Video I saw of you ever, but just had to click on the subscribe button. You seem too chill and i love to listen to you. Keep it up!

Ahhhhh...very easy to understand guide...thanks man, i only play Mh:portable (psp) a loooong time ago, didnt have the chance to finish the game 😁 Hopefully theres somehere playing on nintendo, gotta need some help hahaha

Insect glaive is such a fun weapon once u get the hang of it. I've noticed my deaths have seriously dropped off now that I'm a floating ninja lol. Takes some practice to time the air jumps and land the hits but man you will be the star of the show with that shit sometimes lol. They should also change the whole decoration thing. It does nothing to actually decorate your weapon it's just an unseen buff lol.

Im playing rise and its my first monster hunter game ever and this guide helped alot, thanks!

Got this video on my home page, and after watching it with a bit of skipping, I have to say pretty decent. However, there are three things that I believe could have been gone a bit further into or clarified for the sake of new players who have never played monster hunter before. First, is why element is good on fast attacking weapons like dual blades but not on relatively slower weapons. Second is the weapon you showed in the sharpness section doesn't really have green sharpness immediately. Rather, you need a skill called Handicraft to get to it. Third is the sharpness modifier table you showed. If I'm not mistaken, those modifiers are strictly for raw damage and there are different modifiers for element damage and shelling damage.

Just started on xbox and it’s really great so far, just need to practice with long sword more 😢

Elemental damage isnt just good on fast hitting weapons. The amount of element status applied is different depending on the weapon. For example dual blades may take 10 hits before it procs, and greatsword may only need 3 hits.

Great vid most vids just tell you what item to get this was more of how to understand how to build your own … thank you great vid bud

this is a very good video to get people started, coming from someone who has over 1000 hours on rise. well done.

The best build guide I’ve seen so far with clear direction. Great job. Subbed.

I started yesterday and can't stop playing! It feels very different but also similar to world, I wish there are 2-3 more new monsters but I love it. The new mechanics and movement are great. Love the wirebugs but only use them for the special attacks 😅Kamure is very beautiful but feels extreme small compared to the base in world. All in all rise is a 8/10 for me because I hate most of the old monsters (basarios, volvidon...) 😅

Jeez, where have you been in my MH life?! This is the tutorial I needed. 😁 Subscribing for more. Thank you so much.

Thanks for the video. Algorithm did me a solid and recommended it to me. Rise is my first monster hunter and even though I've reached HR40, I don't feel like I'm well equipped for my rank. Honestly never knew about decorations and paying attention to skills other than "quick draw" on armor pieces(also a long sword user). Hopefully some of the tips you've given help with my low damage and hopefully I can do something about getting one shotted by Kushala Daora.

New PC player here, I just got an Xbox type controller to play this with, it is so different to play than the MMOs that I play now. I have not used a controller for over a decade, it feels so different. I def want to stick it out and get better. I love what the game is about, the story, and it is visually stunning. I am glad I found your channel. You got my sub.

Hey man I use to watch you when I was younger I’m sad that your channel didn’t grow more you were always my favorite

Hey DG, as someone who hasn't played rise at all on switch but did put a lot of time onto the world, especially around fatalis endgame time. I was wondering if sunbreak also has the same build potential as iceborn had at endgame. You could have a full build with the majority of skills maxed out and everything. Does sunbreak come close to that or do you think it's making its way there?

My main build, on Switch, has: Attk Boost 7, Crit Eye 7, Agitator 5, Crit Boost 3, WEx 3, Crit Draw 3, Quick Sheathe 3, Speed Sharp 3, Wirebug 3, Adrenaline Rush 3, Burst 2, Powder Mantle 2, Embolden 1, Spiritbird's Call and a few other "comfort" skills.

thank you~ i'm planning to buy MHR and this is so easy to understand because i played genshin with all those crit rate, crit damage, substats, skills...

Got a switch and Rise a few days ago. It's a big switch coming from icebourne. Keep hitting A instead of X, or getting the shoulder and trigger buttons switched

Amazingly helpful to a new player! Ive been fond of the monster hunter games for ages but never got to playing them because the initial learning curve is a bit offputting to someone used to more streamlined rpgs like Kingdoms of Amalur or Legend of Zelda. I got only one question... So i found out that basically as new character you get armor and the potential to (easily) craft a certain weapon that help you get to the dlc faster... Obviously as new player i dont want that so whats the best way i would start out? Just ditch the armor i'm given and start with nothing and craft leather armor instead and just ignore the defender blades at all costs? Is that the way?

What's really messed up is the system is totally different on Monster Hunter rise and world that it is on Monster Hunter generations and 3 Ultimate 3 tri. I generally play and help people out on all the games. And, is very easy to tell people that are coming to Generations ultimate or three ultimate from the newer games because, they don't have a clue on how to set up their equipment. That's not saying that they're dumb or anyting, but the way skills are applied with the number system in the newer games actually does not work with the older games. What happens is this, on the newer games I might have five active armor skills and the only numbers we see applied or 1, 2, or 3. On the newer games that makes the skills active. On the older games there's a minimum number of 10 that needs to be applied for that particular skill for it to be active. Some skills required + 15 some require + 20. But the players coming from the newer games will insist that they have all these skills active because they have the numbers one, two, or three. I ended up making my own video for Generations ultimate and 3 Ultimate to explain the differences because I got really tired of trying to explain it in game. I noticed people coming from the older games to the newer games usually have an easier time figuring these things out. Thank you for making this video. I'm glad I'm not the only one doing so.

💯💯💯💯💯❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you so much for taking the time to do this video I just want to say that I appreciate your work and I ascribe that I like much-loved Keep On Rocking

Very nice explanation. You make it easy to understand. The only monster hunter game I’ve played before was on the ds 😂 So it’s been a while since

I’ve been having so much fun with this game already, HR120 and just got my third slay on Valstrax with 118 hours already. Still greatly appreciate the video!

Starting MH Rise, right in time for the new dlc. Your video helps me. Thank you!

love the guide, watching it again while i make my build!

This will be super useful

Just started playing today, game its way more complex than I thought

Dog, you are hitting it out of the park with these videos!

Thanks man your the best

Bro I’m going to need a long sword build with fast sheathing with good armor set. Going to be replaying after a while since the switch version

Dude I just got it and even though this was confusing sometimes it helped me mostly understand everything 👍

Yo quick question what is metal material and bone material good for in weapons, do they cut better? What's there advantage

Glad I found your channel when I did bro! I was about to give up on this game.

Hey I’ve got questions on half of my weapon tree do I just unlock all of one side to unlock the other half

Consistent uploader wit the best advice and tips. Man take care of his supporters 🙏

I'd choose attack and crit deco and skills and/or maybe some utilities. just upgrade armor pieces to compensate the defense?

I played a lot of mhw and just started rise on ps5. Which game would you consider better?

Just got this game for 20 dollar on my Switch, and this is the best video guide for me to start progressing my character I'm curious tho, is it better to grind on hub or village? I'm a solo player with bad internet connection, and missions on hub are taking around 20 minutes or more to complete

This my first time playing a game from the mh series on Xbox s game is smooth good graphics sweet gameplay I use bow atm but want to get good with long sword

Thank you for the help !!

Negative affinity is a chance to do less damage, not a lower chance to crit.

there is no wrong way to build in rise as every monster is situational and it would be a good idea to have a balanced build. Sharpness is not really about damage that is just a secondary effect. Sharpness is for Armor Penetration as it's primary mechanic. if you want to know the elemental weakness to a monster just check out it's Armor after slaying it. you can figure out elemental weakness majority of the time by the monsters elemental and or status attacks. once you figure it out switch your weapon to that element, if you do not have that element then just switch to raw damage.

Been following ur content since u started MH World and was so pleased to see you're revisiting your "how to" type vids on MH:Rise for console since we just got access to it, love the vid and longsword for life 😁 just hit HR5 and still going. Need that max build for when sunbreak drops so can be ready to hit the ground rolling

I don't really go for DPS... I really like that makes hunts easier skills . Recovery SPD/boost, speed sharp, razor sharp, deff boost... I like to be as immortal as possible😅

New to rise on xbox, and I'm enjoying it, this helped me out a lot though

Awesome guide. Thanks for the chapters!

Thanx alot for this video, but what i dont understand when do i use weapon trees, weapon list or upgrade list? What is the difference would you please explain that also?

I sold my rarity 3 decorations but I kept the rest . I’m running out of money too. Kinda sucks that I’m gonna start to struggle with low cash

You know after 10 hours in world ( which i still wanna finish on playstation) and after almost 15 hours of rise ( alot of time was spent jus gathering also) but so far i find rise way easier to start with and a little less complicated it feels . I prefer rise now gonna finish this one first

Thank you for this video ... very helpful for a noob like me

Smooth Guide!

Thanks great video

I have a question. When you look at the elemental damage, is that the damage it does plus the raw damage?

I'm sorry my guy but there is no perfect way to build your character or right way to build your character it's however you wish to build it would be the correct way and there is no wrong way to create your character as most people who play the game are not those insane min/maxers within the monster Hunter community. To the people who watch this video just know that any build you want to make is the correct build do it however you want.

I came from world and I understand why they changed LS helm slash but I feel like they made it so complicated now......not sure how I feel so Ive been using switch axe and dual blades a lot so far early game

Hey bro do you have a build that can carry you through high ranks till you get too master or do you have too use multiple builds ? Cause mitsu was busting my ass just too get into HR6 given I’ve only just started but the jump in difficulty was wicked

I'm at the beginning rn, so sry if you answer later, but how do you unlock the ability to craft high rank armor?

I’ve been playing for over 20 hours and didn’t notice the decoration feature 😭😭

Love your vibe!

This games were far better on the DS I just bought this base on nostalgia and what a shock ! What I find is a mess idk the game tell me to choose my weapon type and armor to then having totally different weapons and armor I guess this gen settled for everything

Yo Yo Ye to the yizzle what is the DIZZLE- nah I’m playing. Love your videos DG

Mhgu and rise have been in my switch backlog a long time. Mhgu just started to kinda click and then rise started to click better and im up till 5 am typing with people on multiplayer which i never do. Then i sas cd keys had world for dirt cheap, now i want to learn a game i never thought id play. Sorry family....

Great stuff man! I always look for your video’s first

Thanks 😊

This is perfect for me cause i use longsword too

if anyone needs help in the missions, i can help you (i'm a switch player) or if anyone knows if there is a group, welcome, i always play alone hahaha i'd like to play online with other people a bit

Honestly I’ve been playing mh for a long time since 4U and I still don’t know how to make a build correctly 😅

Thank you

Do u level up armor once bought and all decorations r applied
