Don't forget to use traps. They come in handy a lot when fighting large monsters.

*peeks in*

I am interested in the 3DS version. I downloaded the demo on the eSHop and...I think I am doing it wrong. I ran around, killed some monsters and found the big guy was supposed to get for the mission. So I begin fighting. I wail away on this monster a good 15 minutes. I have no bar to show if I am actually hurting him. I gave up eventually (about 25-30 minutes) because had no idea how to kill it. Is there a trick I am missing? Always thought this series looked fun, but wanted to better understand it before buying an entry.

If there's a beginner's or novice guide be appreciated.

No trick, there simply isn't any life bar or anything. Just keep on attacking to lower its health (go for the Ice-bunny thing) and eventually you should see it getting tired. It's ears will fall down and as such it will lose balance when it charges, for example. The most common sign of a monster being near-death is it limping, however. When that happens you're mere seconds away from victory!


Yeah, the ice bunny.  So, it is normal to take a half hour to kill him then?   Is this a game can play with others?  I think that would help me a lot.

Yes and yes.

The game itself starts off a bit more newbie-friendly than the demo. You start with getting stuff for the village, easy quests with finding mushrooms and so on first and so on. Then your first small monsters, that is also much easier than fighting a big one like the bunny. That helps that you get used to the weapon of choice (everyone plays extremely different). The small monsters actually die after a few hits, they don't need 10-30 minutes like the big ones.

And then you start with big monsters. That is the real core of the game in the long run, but starting the game you have first easier jobs to do.

Thats how much space you have left? I didn't think it was installing the game when I started as it went so quick. Just thought it was a day one patch.

I can't make the hunt tonight since I am going over to a friends apt, but I should be free for the rest of the week. I kind of like to get my character going a little before diving online. MH3 (Wii) I just used the nunchuck+wiimote (never felt comfortable playing with CC/CCP) controls so the gamepad is taking just a little to get used to.  The only thing I can say is that I really want a switch axe weapon asap!
