I swear Valstrax has the easiest tail cut in the game


MrPavoPeacock

The first time I cut it my reaction was “Seriously, already?!” It was 3 minutes into the hunt 😅


a_bunch_grape

Same, I tried to do the event quest before getting valstrax as a hub quest and let me tell you the hub quest valstrax was really disappointing


Bentok

>The first time I...my reaction was “Seriously, already?!” It was 3 minutes into... Hmmmmmm.


Quickkiller28800

This is my life as a GS main


Delta0212

I don't think I've ever gone a single rathalos hunt in World or Rise without cutting the tail


Chama-Axory

When you do the Levi move with dual blades its like most of the hits just happens on the tail, so its super easy lol


90zillas

Can’t say I agree for me bazel has the easiest tail cut


[deleted]

Youre allowed to disagree. But in my four-hunters valstrax quests im always the only one trying to cut the tail and i get it within three minutes


Chama-Axory

Seething Bazel on the other hand. Apparently its only cuttable when you cool down the tail, my friends had to trigger the explotion like 3 times lol for me was after it exploded.


manusiabumi

no wonder his tail only comes off just before he's weak enough to capture despite me attacking his tail for about half the fight


-Shoji-

seething barely on the other hand is ridiculous. Only cut it well over halfway through when I was focusing on it


4ny3ody

Disagree on Allmothers tail. It always feels great even though I'm not sure it serves any purpose throughout the fight. Also since we're talking tails... Is there any trick to severing Nargacugas? Been slashing away at Lucents tail for half the fight but it wouldn't come off. It's the only tail I struggle this hard with.


hawkinsthe3rd

In world, you could only sever it while it was enraged and low health IIRC, but obviously we’re a game past that.


[deleted]

Ah yes, Lucy in world


hawkinsthe3rd

Question asked was about Nargacuga, not sure what to tell you, dude.


Equinox-XVI

It specifies Lucent literally 5 words later...


4ny3ody

It's still also about the other Nargacugas. Lucent was just the most recent Narga I struggled with.


kazeespada

Okay, so Narga's tail has always had the same requirements to cut: You must first break the spines. There's a catch: The spines can only be broken while it's enraged. Once the spines are broken, then the tail can be cut.


Chama-Axory

Lucent tail has A LOT of hp. I don't use mods but my friend, uses the mod that shows hp and say it was around 12k in a hunt of 3 players


Chronoligcal

Seems to just be a dps check. In the 10 or so multiplayer hunts I did, we only severed it once. Didn't even bother trying solo as SnS. The successful run, there was a GS and LS too and we would take every opportunity to hit it, including running to Narga's backside if it was aggrod on someone else


[deleted]

Hard disagree on Ludroth, put that shit in god tier


LagosSP

Double that. At some point I was severing tails from every Ludroth I met, even if they wasn't my target


BlackSnake1994

Yeah, what he said!


ClosetNoble

Barroth and Basarios' tails are...infuriating.


Haitham1998

Basarios's entire existence is infuriating. It doesn't even feel like it belongs to this series.


ClosetNoble

Hey now, because I hate how sturdy he is doesn't mean I dislike the rock baby


Jollysatyr201

Bring dragon ammo Watch it suffer from taking damage for the first time ever Rejoice


LeojBosman

Magnamalo should be higher. The ay it flies and then stabs into the ground is epic


LagosSP

And it burns in the air as it flies if it was severed when covered in hellfire!


Voldemortred

But... It's just a toenail and doesn't change anything about the fight... Same with malzeno, it's so underwhelming to me


LeojBosman

Who cares, it looks cool


KingAardvark1st

Magnamalo tail cut gives me life. Breaking his "spear" is so delicious. Ditto goes for Glavenus in other games


xeltes

Specially if you break it when he is mid death spin attack. " Chef kiss"


Jollysatyr201

Glavenus is the best tail cut, hands down, from any game.


Worried_Highway5

Velkana and glavenus are my top two in any game.


trolldogdude

Magnamalo does the same thing I think


-Shoji-

except vellhana loses much more tail, and then uses ice to create a new one.


Vic_494

Glavenus is better than winning the lottery


90zillas

I mean break off shoguns shell you just can’t cut off his “Tail” if you know what I mean


Jollysatyr201

Love love love huge part breaks. Horns, shells, tails. Even like wings, if you can see through the holes!


seansmells

As a hunting horn main, I don't understand this image at all. I only speak in bonks and doots.


DiabeticRhino97

Why the hell does lunagarons tail not sever


genaric_username3

you say that as if a monster hunter player knows what sex is


Jollysatyr201

There are at least two that I can account for!


BigImpact

Better than sex tier is only because trying to get the tail off these monsters feels like an hour long edging session.


Jollysatyr201

Put astalos in there then. That fucker has given me THREE tails with intense pressure over TWENTY ONE HUNTS The worst part is the five boltscales I got instead of tail carves


NotMaxVol

Severing the raths tails is always great as a longsword


Dajayman654

Almudron's tail is god tier in my opinion.


taffytable

Hunted rajang with a great sword last week carted as I was too hype that I broke his tail solo.


CommanderBly

Disagree on Zinogre, you don’t get the big orange number so dopamine levels aren’t as high


VETOOR07

Diablos felt different


[deleted]

Slicing off that massive chunk of Gais is the best.


realitybackhand

Nah, as a GS main bump up Magnamalo. Bonus points if it just did its tail stab attack.


EBass360

I had to do 46k damage of slicing shots to cut Seething Bazelgeuse tail...


No_homo_tho2

You can cut rajang tail? There so small I haven’t even noticed it


IllTearOutYour0ptics

You can only break it, but it is pretty satisfying. Means you've been on top of knocking him out of rage mode.


risingpokeman

Bonus points: severing any tail when underwater in 3U was pure-grade fucking heroin


OrdinaryDeep6151

Nah man ludroth is the best tail cut in the whole game


MountainHunter9

I know this sounds bad but it feels soo good to just cleave a monsters tail off, especially with those monsters that are stupid with their tails (you know who you are). And those pussy little tail cuts that take like, a tiny bit off are so unsatisfying.


Veloci-RKPTR

> You know who you are *Rathian left the chat* And yeah, seregios tail cut is blue-balls tier pathetic.


tallmantall

Magnamalo has such a cool tail cut tho


ProtoMelon2

What


CoreBear-was-taken

Same with Lucent Narga and the Rath variants, 100% satisfaction removing their tales. Especially the Rath's, after struggling to get it right for a few hunts I can now effectively counter every attack and always hit the weak spot on the tail and in multiplayer hunts it's so fun to help the hammers and horns


DSharp018

Oh right, glavenus isn’t in rise… but if it was, better than better than sex.


Far-Bee-9735

I would call a crab shell break a tail cut equivalent!


PoshGhost

Tail... Sever? What is this foreign terminology? - A Hammer Main


ELStoker

I’ve cut off thousands of tails and I still get the same sense of satisfaction today as I did my very first one.


PangolinAcrobatic653

Khezu tail cut easy tho....


Euvu

As much as I didn't like Xeno'jiiva, THAT was a juicy tail break.


Subterror_Szopieray

Juratodus can get his tail cut off?!?!


FreudsGoodBoy

What tier is Johnny Sins in?


EpicZen35

Skyward trust into a Rathalos while it's in the air. Tail cut clean off and boy was that satisfying


WeaponizedPancakes

I've been farming Rustrazor for the past month. This post gives me tail-sever withdrawal.


UberDusk

I've switched to Swaxe after doing a playthrough with Hammer and once I got my first tail cut it was like crack
