Base Defense is depressing
You can’t defeat them and it only ends when time runs out, which gives it this futile feeling like fighting zombies
If it were a giant monster or if defeating one swapped in another, I could at least understand, but
Only getting a max of 4 reward slots is pretty disappointing too
Though that might also just be because I’m busy and can’t participate much
I’m a pretty clumsy Gunlance user who already struggles with regular 10★ monsters, so there’s no way I can beat a 10★ Riftborne… While I’m looking forward to the addition of accessories, all I see in my future is my Potions melting away. People who can take down 10★ monsters are amazing~
Let’s practice Perfect Guards with the Bazel lance. It’ll be featured again in the future, so you’ll have plenty of time, and this one weapon can beat most ★10 Riftbornes.
I had a bad feeling when I saw the quest, but Deviljho doesn’t even show up?!
Tomorrow might be Deviljho!
Let’s look forward to tomorrow 
Update
I thought the quests were daily and would switch tomorrow, but turns out we’re just in the prologue period…
Sorry about that. Deviljho is looking hopeless 
Bazel, Mizutsune, and Glavenus are the top three most unwanted, so I feel like biting my tongue in frustration.
Everyone has ones they don’t need, huh.
I wish they had released special-edition monsters like the Halloween Kulu-Ya-Ku.
Since it says Deviljho won’t invade during this period, I don’t think it’ll show up for a while outside of investigations.
This might sound like a first-world problem, but
with 30-minute respawns, it’s tough to hunt later.
Personally, it feels like a debuff.
Seriously though, please do something about delayed hunts getting canceled ASAP…
If you’re going to go this far, you might as well just give them a G10 Bazel…
I finally finished work and it’s time to hunt, but there’s no joy in going out to hunt at all 
Totally agree (:3 ｣∠)
I totally forgot about Bazelgeuse ravaging the map, and the sheer shock when I was almost there, only for the monster I wanted to disappear and turn into a Bazelgeuse fest…
Tonight’s walk left me thinking, “…After I walked all the way out here……”
I’m going to pour my Glavenus materials into the Charge Blade.
Phials can’t crit, so high stats are a direct advantage.
With Sword & Shield, a 10★ Riftborne Mizutsune with mutated hind legs is really rough.
If the mutation is on the head from the start, you can just keep attacking without ever releasing Lock On and aim straight for a knockdown from breaking the head, but dealing with the hind legs is absolute hell.
If I drop Bubbly Dance, I could push my damage even further, but it becomes such a stressful fight.
I really felt the disparity between weapon types.
I spend about half the hunt swiping, thinking to myself, “Seriously, who actually finds hind leg Mizutsune fun?!”
Let me vent a bit again.
In the end, I only topped out at 1.36 million on Riftcharged and couldn’t break 1.5 million (crying)
I’m using the exact same gear as the people on X who passed it and referencing their moves, but even when I get into a pattern where I do almost the exact same moves, I still can’t break it…
Like, I can’t seem to get the knockdown when breaking the barrier or whateverーーー (even though it goes down at that exact timing in the video I’m referencing)
Could it be my phone or setup…? (crying)
Aside from cheesing, gyro + Water Strike Hammer is the strongest in Base Defense, huh… There’s no way I could pull that off.
It’s the last day, but it’s raining, so I can’t even go out for a final push hunting walk…!
