I got kicked from a lobby in MH3U once for not having a Kelbi Bow.
I was a Long Sword user (and could definitely hold my own). Joined and saw 3 dudes with Kelbi Bows, I accepted the quest, and they just sat there. 20 minutes, they wouldn't start the quest. Finally they kicked me. Buncha elitist bums.

Ugh, 3rd generation was weird with online, I kept running into hackers and trolls/leeches...my first fight with Alatreon on Tri was done with in under 2 minutes. -.-

@JaxonH I still encountered problem people in 3U, but yeah it was a bit better. But since online wasn't required that time I spent most of my time offline. >.<

I bounced my save back and forth but largely played on Wii U. That game hooked me so hard. I'd just barely gotten into gaming as a hobby back then. Had played Metroid Prime, DKC Returns, Zelda Twilight Princess, Resident Evil Revelations and NSMBU, but that's about it. MH3U was an experience like no other. I had never felt a game grip me that hard. Never felt such exhilaration from combat before.

I've had bad experiences with all of the ranged weapons in Monster Hunter games so far, unfortunately. I always feel like my damage output is subpar, and end up running out of good ammo quickly.
@JaxonH I'll try to pop on Sunday if I have the time. It has been probably a month or so since I last played, so no promises on my performance, though.
@Ralizah
I've heard gunners will bring materials to craft more ammo mid hunt, which would not only solve the issue of running out of ammo, but also the issue of damage output.
And perhaps just getting skilled with the weapons would help, too. That said, the damage output isn't as good as Great Sword or Switch Axe per times runs, but the difference shouldn't be that big.

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika ...I never played those games, but this isn't unfair-levels of difficulty or anything. It's just an action-rpg type game really. Grab a weapon, fight a giant monster or two with it...make new weapons/armor and fight stronger monsters, etc.

But getting back to HBG, I'm starting to think about what skills best synergize. For example, sheath time is longer, so Quick Sheath is beneficial. But even then, if you get a status effect, it seems like Wild Breath is the deco to run, so you can easily eliminate the status without sheathing. Maybe even Blight Res 3 to accompany it.
At least with Bow, stamina management is key. So Constitution and Stamina Surge are appropriate.
What about mods? What are the pros and cons of using a shield or long barrel on a bowgun? Are there also mods for bow?

Started messing with the Glaive again in World/IB...might start using it again in Sunbreak, dunno yet. Only reason I'm doing it in World/IB is because the Gunlance is terrible in that game for whatever reason. At least in Sunbreak the Gunlance is fun, and guarding actually works most of the time there. >_>
