The dragon was inflicted with the flaw of asterion

So cassie knew mordret wouldn't succeed apotheosis, it was all just to make him a controllable variable not a unpredictable mordret and call upon sunphis. She basically played the waiting game.

Like being locked in a cage for weeks knowing full well she will eventually be released. Cassie planned it alteast during 3rd NM or possibly beyond that.

Her plans didn't end with just breaking fate.

humanity won't easily accept the return of sunny. the devil of Antarctica saved countless people in Antarctica but that doesn't mean the entire world knew. Before the fame of the devil of Antarctica could even spread he vanished. A million of people might knew but would they all have positive opinions after what LoS has done.

Clarifying the situation would mean Nephis has to smooch all over sunny's face slurping his cheeks and lips to prove he is not a threat but friendly neighborhood slave that must never be revered as a god. Doing it for a few weeks straight would be very helpful in clearing his name.

Himanity will be desensitized by then.

If no follow up pov of neph would ever happen...

Just double down on her autism G3, make it as weird and as awkward as possible. Make the follow up chapters feel very out of place.

Like an introvert but on steroids and also diagnosed with ADHD, every showcase of intimacy will look wrong.

Idecisively clingy.

I felt like g3 tried to be unique doubling down on how she normally acts instead of the more generic approach which didn't really work out.

I know its been a while in the tomb and she might have already calmed herself but not totally, yet why less expression = more emotions. She already shown to cry and beg for sunny to live in ch 1280, she can show extreme emotions.

A face with blank expression but her voice full of vulnerability and weakness, the most it has ever been as stated. Atleast frown or tear up to match the tone, ch 2992 its so weird to read. If G3 is going for a autistic moment he nailed it, but a heartwarming reunion or a ominous embrace G3 completely missed the mark.

Only the POV can mitigate this initial meet up, even then G3 has to force it, they already met and suddely we return to how she remembers him. Even If he is saving it for later like for a final clash it won't be as good. Its like telling me that i should care more right now instead of back then when it truly mattered, robbing me of what I should've felt in that moment.

Worse if G3 doesn't add it at all, if G3's best follow up after this is them just being more intimate why even try to make that reunion so weird.

Their conversation is great their promise very inline with them but that's it. I don't know how the next chapters will unfold, Im just coping at this point.

Just found my third sns combo I learned! this time much shorter than the last. and also something I found about focus mode that is not explained even after searching.

My first combo I learned perfect rush! yes and also follow up i do that too. recently learned I could add spinning reaper to that which is nice.

On my recent post, people assumed i did this combo wrong no, it's not the execution but I just spammed it cause it's the most powerful move. Had to learn it's just a situational combo after facing a powerful monster, im doing less damage output spamming it.

My second combo, 3heavy slash+spinning reaper+charged chop. My main combo, high damage and easier execution. what makes it better is the ability to stop mid combo to either backstep or guard. unless I overextend my combo I still have much better leeway with this combo.

My third! an aerial maneuver, I underestimated the usefulness of this combo. It wasn't until I faced a rathalos constantly flying did I see how useful it could be.

Backstep+charged slash+scaling slash+charged chop. It might be the weakest combo I learned but it does it's job nicely for dealing with fliying opponents. of course it has such a big commitment, I'll take what I can get.

Yes I know I could just use a sling ammo or the flash bugs to call it down but once I run out or if it's not available I had to use this combo. It also works on ground, dealing multiple hit on a right angle, if charged chop dropped higher it would definitely hit much more.

Then finally the thing I learned about focus mode. sns can do a partial focus strike, if a focus strike fails it just stabs it hitting it only one time and the damage is just weak.

By stabbing a weak spot not a wound it deals a huge damage at the initial stab and pulling out deals multiple hits like a reverse horizontal charged chop. The crosser would appear the same like targetting an open wound.

I just found out another way to maximize my damage output with sns, im still just 4days into playing wilds so I could still find new ways to optimize my attacks.

perfect rush isn't at powerful as I thought.

I could be wrong entirely but here's my conclusion, executing a spinning reaper then a charged chop is comparable to a perfect rush interms of speed.

3 special attacks + spinning reaper + charged chop had more damage than doing a perfect rush but comperable speed when executed. combined with backstep or guard in between combos to mitigate monster attack. Plus I could even start with 3 blunt hits instead of slashes to trigger some knockout or stagger.

Charged chop is the only concern as it needs a wider commitment but not as wide as perfect rush.

Aside from my main combo, there's also sliding swipe to reposition myself. Although I mostly use it to move closer to the monster while also initiating an attack at the same time.

Aside from doing combos there's also focus strike which feels very unpopular. Never seen anyone do a focus strike. At the end of the hunt I usually get 8 focus strikes.

The charged chop is very quick and effective focus strike while the uppercut is risky, if the monster wasn't atleast staggered I had to endure any incoming attack mid air. Best out come is to follow up my uppercut with a downward hit and trigger a knock out for more openings.

Also theres a charged slash. Executed by doing a backstep and holding the attack button. Like charge chop but going forward instead of downward.

Alma's pancho definitely helps, letting me know what I was fighting for. I do it for her.
