This game has many elements in common with the “Monster Hunter” series.
Conquering monsters and collecting materials to produce and strengthen the player’s weapons and armor is also one of the fun. The following will introduce the characteristics of the weapons that appeared in the RPG “Monster Hunter Story 2: Wings of Destruction” and the process of producing armor.
Weapons that the protagonist rider can use
Added guns and bows that were not available in the previous game. There are 6 weapon types in this game.
Each weapon type has its own attack type (slash/stab/stab), and the head, feet, and tail of the monster also have corresponding effective attack types (sslash/stab/stab). You need to observe and find out. .
Even if this work is an RPG, you can experience the “Monster Hunter” features that strategically deal with monsters.
6 weapon types
One-handed sword[attack type: cut]
A weapon with a well-balanced offense and defense. Ability to use skills with the same attributes as weapons, causing huge damage. Shield defense can also be used to reduce damage.
Great Sword[Attack Type: Cut]
Weapons that have been strengthened on the offensive level. The use of “Charge” skills can increase the level of “Charge Value” and use more powerful skills.
Sledgehammer[Type of Attack: Hit]
Weapons that are good at site attacks. Victory in a head-on duel will increase the level of “Charge Value”. After the level is increased, more powerful skills can be produced.
Hunting flute【Attack type: hitting】
Good at supporting weapons. A variety of skills, in addition to being used for normal attacks, it can also activate various effects that can support companions. Depending on the playing type of the hunting flute, the types of skills that can be activated will vary.
Bow[Attack type: thorn]
Weapons that are good at attacks with abnormal states. Using the “Charge” skill can increase the success rate of causing abnormal status in the next attack round, and automatically launch an additional attack of “Just Shot”. The skills that can be used by accumulating power will vary according to the type of bow.
Gungun[Attack type: thorn]
A weapon that fires ammunition. Ammunition will increase as the round progresses, and victory in a head-on match will be reloaded. The skills that can be activated vary according to the amount of ammunition remaining.
Generally, the bond value that can be accumulated by attack is low, but relatively, in a head-on duel with the skill of firing ammunition, you can accumulate a large amount of bond value in one go. When the bond value reaches the maximum, the “Dragon Shot Cannon” can be used to make a super powerful all-round attack.
Through the destruction of parts, the situation of the battle is beneficial to our side
The body of a large monster is divided into several parts (head, feet, tail, etc.), and each part has a different meat quality. The rider’s weapon has the attack type of slashing/beating/stabbing, and different types of meat have different effective attack types (slashing/beating/stab).
Carrying weapons of various attack types—if you know the characteristics of monsters, you can only carry effective attack types—and you can fight strategically.
In addition, the 3 pre-equipped weapons can be replaced at will in each round of the battle. As long as the position of the attack, you can know whether the weapon’s attack is effective or not for the meat, so make a note of it.
Some large monsters can knock them down through the damaged parts, take this opportunity to attack fiercely. In this game, you can also experience these common elements with the action game “Monster Hunter” series.
Produce and strengthen weapons and armors based on monster materials
This work can obtain materials and props through battle rewards or gathering in the wilderness. As long as you control the entourage, you can easily move in the fields and mazes and collect materials. And by accumulating combat experience, you can increase the experience value to strengthen yourself, and continue to obtain materials and rewards for monsters.
The weapon shop and processing shop in the base can not only modify weapons and armors, but also use materials and money to produce and strengthen weapons and armors. As long as the materials for new monsters are collected, the types of weapons and armors that can be produced will also increase.
The system of this work has become more convenient, as long as the material that reaches the specified number of points is allocated, it can be produced and enhanced. Be able to make all kinds of weapons and armors.
And reinforcement requires a certain degree of material. Form a stronger team, or prepare better weapons and armors for the riders, conquer powerful monsters and complete side tasks, and collect materials.
This is an RPG. Even supporters of “Monster Hunter” who are not good at action games can increase their level and strengthen themselves by gaining experience points, and enjoy the fun of the game.
Unique Features of “Monster Hunter Story 2: Wings of Destruction”
The “Inheritance Ceremony” that can cultivate your own entourage beast
The inheritance ritual is a “secret ritual” that allows the entourage to inherit the fetter gene and gain new power. Can be carried out in the animal shed.
Choose the companion that inherits the bond gene and the companion that gives the bond gene (if the companion that gives the bond gene has been set as a team member or my favorite, it cannot be selected). The entourage that has inherited the bond gene can awaken new abilities and be strengthened.
After the inheritance ceremony is over, the entourage that gave the bond gene will leave, so please pay attention.
Fetter gene
Each monster can give a bond gene. By putting the fetter gene into the gene slot, the companion beast can gain new power. If there is a locked genetic slot, it can be removed by upgrading the level or using items that match the race of the entourage.
The bond gene has a “color” that represents attributes and a “pattern” that represents the nature of attack. As long as any row in the horizontal, vertical or diagonal direction is the same, there will be a bingo bonus to further strengthen the ability. If there are multiple bingo bonuses with the same color and pattern, their effects will be repeated. The same type of bond genes can be strengthened by overlapping. It can be strengthened up to 2 times, and the skill effect of the bond gene will become stronger.
By repeating the inheritance rituals, powerful companion beasts with various attributes and offensive properties can be cultivated. Collect a large number of entourages, let them inherit the bond genes, and breed them into favorite entourages!
Incorporate the cultivated entourage into the team and enjoy the fun of fighting together and fighting
Communication play (a function that can be used when the game is advanced to a certain level)
There are modes in the game that can communicate with other players for “competition missions” and “competitive duels”. As an RPG, this work reproduces one of the charms of the “Monster Hunter” series with the theme of “Common Fighting”: cooperating with companions to defeat monsters.
It can communicate and play with nearby players through nearby host communication, and it can also communicate and play with remote players through network communication.
※ If you want to play cooperatively with remote players through network communication, you need to join “Nintendo Switch Online” (paid).
Fighting tasks together

There are multiple nests with eggs hidden in the maze of the “Common Exploration Mission”, and multiple eggs can be obtained in one exploration. The structure of the maze changes with each entry. As long as any player completes the task, he can get paid.
To create a room for a “competitive exploration mission”, you need an “exploration ticket”, but you don’t need to participate in a created mission. The exploration ticket can be obtained from the treasure chest in the fight together. Using the rare “exploration ticket” mission, the eggs in the maze will also be rare eggs.
