Outlines for Mixers (MH3)

Hello all, it's been a while since I posted here, but I was minding my own business, mixing some more sets on MH3, and then it struck me...

All serious mixers know that there's certain combinations that are very easy to achieve certain skills most efficiently. For example, to get Adrenaline+2, the easiest way is to use Black Leather Pants and a Barroth piece for Head/Chest/Gloves. (Gloves are my preference because they also come with 3 spare slots)

...................................................................................................................

That being said, I've begun making outline sets on MHAG which can be found under the search button, and by typing "<Outline Set>" under the Set Name space.

I've only begun the process, and as such, I have only placed 4 outline sets so far.  If there are any [very] obvious ones I missed, feel free to point them out, and I will be glad to post them when possible.  Because no one else has used the "<Outline Set> name in any of there sets, feel free to post any of your own outline sets yourself to claim credit for them.

Please note that if you abuse the "<Outline Set>" name, I will have to list reliable names to look for while browsing mhag in this blog.



Current List of Outline Sets.

Status Atk Up/Adrenaline+2/Double Poison --- No Wep Slots, No Helm, Free Slot on Torso Up Chestpiece, No Tali

Sharp+1/Earplugs --- 1 Wep Slot, (Heli+ Chest, 2 Other Armors W/Torso Up) - No Gloves, No Tali, [Also has 1 more free piece which can be any of the following - Head/Waist/Legs - Which depends on what pieces you use for torso up. (Head = Skull Mask; Waist = Vangis; Legs = Alloy/Alloy+/Uragaan/Guild)

Wind Res (Hi) --- No Wep Slots, No Helm, No Chest, No Gloves, No Tali

Focus/Adrenaline+2 --- No Wep Slots, No Chest, No Waist, No Tali

...................................................................................................................

Feel free to provide any more combinations that you are aware of, and good luck mixing!

Diablos ... I mean Diablo III is coming!

no, it's not monster-hunter-related.  Meanwhile I am still waiting for the announcement of Monster Hunter News for the west, I can't help to start enjoying this new game, that will be launched next month.

2. Armor databases now show sets on multiple pages (50 sets per page).
3. User logins for each database were merged together, so users can access all games with single login.
4. Data synchronized with the latest MHAG Desktop version.

Check http://mhag.info/mhtrig/ for MH3G MHAG.

New MHAG Desktop was also released at the same time.
MHAG Desktop v2.2a

MHAG Desktop 2.2 Release: New MH3G Support

MHAG Desktop 2.2 was just released!!  In this version, MHAG starts to support Monster Hunter 3 (Tri) G (MH3G) (DS)!

Download Link

As you can see from the previous two blogs (Coming Soon: MH3G Support, MHAG Helps to Build MH3G Wiki), I made a lot of efforts to gather all data, and meanwhile, also helped to make easy-to-read wiki tables with my program.  

Remember that this is an initial release for MH3G, so it may still contain some problems.  (even Japanese wiki is far from complete yet)  Here is some current issues.

1. Armor materials: they were extracted from Japanese armor build program (http://www.geocities.jp/masax_mh/mh3g/)  and Japanese wiki.  and I didn't check or translate them.

2. Maximum armor defense data is not complete.  (mostly from Japanese armor program either)

3. Talisman maximum skill points: current version is based on MHP3rd and http://www10.atwiki.jp/mh3g/pages/72.html.  Some skills were "promoted" to G rank, so talisman data were adjusted accordingly

In case people wonders what's the difference between MHAG and the Japanese program  http://www.geocities.jp/masax_mh/mh3g/

1. I fixed tons of errors, so MHAG should be more accurate.

2. I made translations.

3. MHAG Online armor database (http://mhag.info/) for MH3G will be available soon.

To make MHAG better, please also verify the data from my check list, if you have the game already.
