Adjustments to the Guiding Lands

Adjustments have been made to make the Guiding Lands easier to play.
Future updates will feature more adjustments to make it easier to play.

Adjustment 1: Region Level change fluctuation adjusted
In the Guiding Lands, you can obtain different materials at each level, so adjustments have been made to how levels increase/decrease to make it easier to explore.
Region Level 1 - 2: No changes
Region Level 3 - 6: Fluctuates at the same rate as region level 2 did before the update
Region Level 7: Fluctuates at the same rate as region level 3 did before the update

Adjustment 2: Adjusted the drop rate of special tracks obtained from monsters in the Guiding Lands
Unanalyzed special tracks are now easier to obtain, making it easier to lure out specific monsters and control your region levels.
They are also now guaranteed upon capturing a monster, or carving from the monster's body or broken part.

Adjustment 3: Region levels can now be fixed
Settings have been added so that region levels will not fluctuate, and you can explore the Guiding Lands freely with fixed levels.

Fixed region levels are applied per player even during multiplayer.

If you set region levels to fixed, your own region levels will not fluctuate whether you're the quest leader or just joining another player's quest.
You can fix region levels at the quest board when you select the Guiding Lands.

Adjustment 4: Expedition Objective added to fixed region play
Added a "Fixed Region" parameter that can be set when departing to the Guiding Lands, or used as search criteria.
Use this setting when you want to let players know you're exploring with fixed levels, or if you want to search for expeditions using fixed levels.
This parameter will not fix region levels.
For instructions how to fix region levels, please see Adjustment 3.

 

Adjustment 5: Locating monsters in the Guiding Lands will no longer affect region level
The design of the Guiding Lands has been changed, as region level changing upon discovering a monster in the locale had an unintended effect.

  In addition to this change, we are also exploring further changes to address the issue of intentional disconnects for resetting the Guiding Lands.

MHW: Update 5.20 Contents

Weapon Bug Fixes

Charge Blade

• The bug where the visuals and sound effects for the charge blade’s Charged Double Slash didn’t match up depending on the combo route has been fixed. It has been fixed so that the visuals and sound effects match up regardless of the combo route.

Hunting Horn

• On PS4 & Xbox
  • The bug where a music note would not apply if the player tried a jumping draw attack off a ledge while they have slinger ammo loaded has been fixed.
• On Xbox
  • Fixed the UI bug where, if the player performed attacks in a specific order with the Empress Roar “Blaze” hunting horn, the “All Melody Effects Extended” message would appear even though the effects weren’t being extended.

Lance

• Fixed the bug where pressing (R2+○ on Ps4; RT+B on Xbox) after a finishing twin thrust from a sliding charge would result in a high thrust. This has been fixed so that it matches the attack flow of a regular charge into a finishing twin thrust, so that a counter thrust now comes out instead.
• Fixed the bug where, after performing a mid thrust upon landing from an advancing jump thrust, the button guide would incorrectly display Mid Thrust I instead of the proper name Mid Thrust II.
• Fixed a bug where the game would perform a guard dash forward regardless of the direction the left stick is being pressed, if R2 (RT on Xbox) and the △ (Y on Xbox) button were pressed at the same time. This has been fixed so that even if the button inputs are slightly off, the guard dash will be performed in the direction the left stick is being pressed.

Light Bowgun/Heavy Bowgun

• Fixed the bug for both bowgun types where draw attack skills would not activate if you perform a jumping reload draw attack when your ammo is not full.

Skills

• Fixed the bug where the third level of the focus skill incorrectly stated that charge times would be reduced by 20% when the proper amount should be by 15%.

Sword & Shield

• The bug where if the player fired their slinger with the weapon drawn and tried to fire one more time during the second half of the animation, the animation would not cancel and the second slinger shot would not come out has been fixed.

General Bug Fixes

• Fixed the bug that caused network lag to occur during multiplayer on the Xbox One.
• A bug existed in the Behemoth-related quests, where due to differences in terrain height, hiding behind a comet when Behemoth summons Ecliptic Meteor would not work. A counter-measure has been applied so that hiding behind a meteor will result in the player being recognized as close to the same height level. (This is not 100% guaranteed to work.)
• Fixed the bug where, during any Zorah Magdaros quest where Zorah goes from standing on its hind legs to standing on all four legs, any attack such as falling boulders that cause Zorah to flinch would revert him to his hind leg position for a moment.
• Fixed a bug where players would immediately be spotted by a monster during special arena quests if players left at the same time while network or console differences existed between the players.
• Fixed a bug where, if the Ghillie Mantle is selected in the item window when running out of any other item, the item window cursor would move one spot to the left without player input.
• This update also includes other minor bug fixes.

Patch Version: 5.11 (PS4) / 5.1.1 (Xbox One)

Platform: PS4 (95MB), Xbox One (80 MB)

Date: Oct 15th 2018 (UTC)

 

Changes

• This update includes fixes to those who were affected with the Lunastra Ticket bug and some fixes regarding Arch Tempered Kushala Daora. It also contains various other bug fixes.

Lunastra Ticket Bug Fix

• The bug where the reward item “Lunastra Ticket”, from the event quest “When Blue Dust Surpasses Red Lust”, would be placed in your item pouch or item box as a consumable item and could not be used as a material. This occurred even after the item had been converted from an “Unavailable” item, after you had updated to version 5.10 after having experienced the bug in which you obtained the “Unavailable” item instead of the “Lunastra Ticket” (which occurred from completing the quest “When Blue Dust Surpasses Red Lust” without updating to version 5.10) has been fixed.
  • Updating to version 5.11 will take any Lunastra Tickets from the consumables in your item pouch or item box and replace them into your material item box.
• Additionally, please note that though the delivery request “Blooming Sakura” is designed to unlock by speaking to the Smithy after you’ve obtained a Lunastra Ticket, the request will not unlock if the Lunastra Ticket you possess is converted from an “Unavailable” item after having updated to version 5.10 or higher.
  • If the request does not unlock after speaking to the Smithy, please update to version 5.11 and reobtain Lunastra Tickets by completing the event quest “When Blue Dust Surpasses Red Lust” again. Then speak to the Smithy to unlock the request.

Arch Tempered Kushala Daora Bug Fix

• Kushala Daora’s wind armor normally repels arrows and bowgun shots, but arch-tempered Kushala Daora’s wind armor unintentionally did not repel these attacks. This issue has been rectified so that tempered and arch-tempered Kushala Daora will now repel those attacks when its wind armor is active.

Xeno’jiiva Bug Fix

• A bug has been fixed that caused Xeno’jiiva’s tail to gain resistance when switching to multiplayer mode via SOS, causing it to become harder to sever.

Other Bug Fix

• This update also includes other minor bug fixes.

Patch Version: 5.10 (PS4) / 5.1.0 (Xbox One)

Platform: PS4 (??MB), Xbox One (?? MB)

Date: Oct 4m 2018

Changes

• This update includes quality of life changes to Arch Tempered monster quests, certain combat bugs, various other bug fixes, and tons of localization fixes.

Quality of Life Changes

Major Additions and Changes

• “Warped Feystone” drop rate has been increased for the following quests:
  • Relish the Moment (Tempered Deviljho): Fucium Ore → Warped Feystone
  • The Deathly Quiet Curtain (Arch-tempered Vaal Hazak): Dreamcore Ore → Warped Feystone
  • A Whisper of White Mane (Arch-tempered Kirin): Dreamcore Ore → Warped Feystone
  • The Scorn of the Sun (Arch-tempered Teostra): Dreamcore Ore → Warped Feystone
  • The Eye of the Storm (Arch-tempered Kushala Daora): Dreamcore Ore → Warped Feystone
    • This is great for players as it attempts to retain more players completing these quests. I know once I got my tickets for my armor/layered armor I never touched the quests again due to the low marginal benefit of the quests.
• Solved the disconnecting exploit that would allow players to keep their pursuit level in the Kulve Taroth Siege by intentionally disconnecting
  • Now players cannot post or join another quest for the same Kulve Taroth after claiming rewards once. If you cannot post or join a Kulve Taroth quest, you must either wait until the other players in the session have repelled the Kulve Taroth, or move to a different session. Then you will be able to post or join quests for a new Kulve Taroth.
• Adjusted the order of melding ingredients at the Elder Melder. It now will use the same sorting method used for items.
  • In previous updates, new items were added to the end of the ingredient list, but now new additions will now follow this new sorting method.
  • No items have been removed from the current ingredient list.

Bug Fixes Affecting Combat

Bow

• Bug where Dragon Piercer would fire outside the intended range when pressing the L2 button (PS4) or the left trigger (Xbox One) just as you release an arrow when the camera is facing outside the intended aim range was fixed.

Charge Blade

• Bug where, if your Charge action is interrupted by damage when chaining it into a Condensed Element Slash in order to power up your Sword Mode attacks, the next attack will no longer mistakenly benefit from additional hits from phial effects was fixed.

Dual Blades

• Bug where graphic and sound effects were not triggering correctly when exiting Demon Mode after any of the various combos was fixed.

“Critical Draw” and “Punishing Draw” Skills Bugs

• Bug where the effects from “Critical Draw” and “Punishing Draw” would expire before you could do damage with your weapon, due to unrelated, continuous damage sources such as torch pods was fixed.

Various Bug Fixes

• The bug where, if you own the Kinsect “True Dragon Soul”, the Smithy equipment forging screen would display an icon showing that you owned “Kulve Taroth’s Fury α” when you do not actually own it was fixed.
• The bug where, when sorting equipment at the item box, sorting weapons by the “Great Sword” category would also sort Sever-type Kinsects to the top of the list, and sorting weapons by the “Sword & Shield” category would also sort Blunt-type Kinsects to the top of the list was fixed.
• Fixed the bug where squad information may be deleted.
  • This occurs due to delays in server requests, as a result of switching between save data too many times in a row, or repeating the process of frequently refreshing guild cards before immediately signing out. Please note that we cannot recover squad information that was lost prior to this update.
• The bug that impacted players who were unable to unlock the 8★ quest “Lightning Strikes Twice” was fixed.
  • This issue occurred very rarely in high rank quests and expeditions, preventing research points from accumulating when you collect high rank Kirin traces. Updating to version 5.10 will allow the quest to unlock, but you must re-gather the necessary research points.

Xbox One Only:
Improved the processing of the retrieval of session information to reduce the incidence of the error code “50088-MW1”, which would prevent you from joining online sessions.

• The bug where the notification beginning “Continuing the game in offline mode was fixed.
  • To connect…” would not display when a communication error (Xbox Live, or from being disconnected) occurs when creating or joining a new online session while already in a session.
• Fixed the bug in the Wildspire Waste where you could lock your focus camera to an empty spot, by locking onto the spot where Cactuar would appear before they actually appear.
• Fixed a bug where your Palico would fail to restore you after running over to hit you to recover from paralysis or sleep (as a result of using the “signal” command as it runs over, causing an error in its movement destination).
• Fixed the bug where the effects of Demondrug, Mega Demondrug, Armorskin, and Mega Armorskin that were applied to a Palico via the skill “Wide-Range” would expire for the Palico when they fainted in combat, but the expiration of these effects would not be properly synced between the players during multiplayer.
• The bug where a monster hit with the Dragonator by a guest player in a Special Arena quest would not properly flinch from the attack, if the host player is far from the monster and accessing the supply box or otherwise waiting in camp was fixed.
• Fixed bugs that occur when (a) you are targeting a large monster with the target camera and its icon on the lower left part of the screen is grayed out, (b) the icon of the monster you are targeting is the furthest icon on the left, and (c) either of the following occur.
  • When using the focus camera, the target would switch away from the large monster when a small monster’s icon was added to the leftmost end of the target list.
  • When using the target camera, the target would switch away from the large monster when a small monster disappears from the target list.

• The bug where the health gauge wouldn’t properly change color after being inflicted with the poison or bleeding status after finishing a monster mount was fixed.
• Fixed the bug where the order of items in the item bar would change unintentionally when you change your equipment loadout and your items are lined up in certain ways.
• Fixed the bug where the order of items in the item bar would change unintentionally when you register an item loadout when you have supply items. When saving an item loadout, the order of items registered will ignore supply item data, and supply items obtained again afterwards may be in a different order, but this is not a bug.
• The bug where female characters’ hair would not move properly after equipping the head armor “Shadow Shades” or the layered head armor for ‘Bushi Kabuto “Sabi”‘ and ‘Bushi Kabuto “Homare”‘ was fixed.
• Other minor bug fixes were done.

Localization Fixes

The new text is listed below, with old text in parentheses. While item names have changed, it won’t leave your inventory.

[Brazilian Portuguese] Fixed some grammatical mistakes in the names of armor pieces from the “Aloy” series.

[Traditional Chinese] Fixed the names of the layered armor for the “Brigade”, “Blossom”, and “Diver” series, as it overlapped with the names of the standard Diver armor series.

[Traditional Chinese, Korean, Russian, Arabic] Fixed the notation for character names in terms related to the Street Fighter V collaboration.

[French] Fixed the name of the Kushala Daora γ series of armor to be consistent with the α and β series. The new text is listed below, with old text in parentheses.

Kushala Daora γ (Kushala γ)

[French, Italian, German, Spanish] Updated various parts of the text for consistency.

Date: April 26th 2018

Changes:

• Fixed a bug where the Kulve Taroth Siege quest line would not progress correctly under certain conditions (specifically: if you speak to the Admiral out in the field when participating in another player’s instance of the “A Wound and a Thirst” or similar quests, after having collected Kulve Taroth traces but BEFORE having spoken to him separately in Astera). Players who have encountered this bug already can return to Astera and speak with the Admiral, triggering the council scene, after which the Kulve Taroth Siege will become available.
• Fixed a bug where the great sword Wyvern Ignition “Impact” saw its fire elemental attack value unintentionally reduced to 240. The value has been reset to 510.
• Fixed some bugs in the data collection for the statistical summaries given to you by speaking to the First Wyverian (weapon usage, number of monsters slain, etc.). Data will be progressively reset starting on April 26. For the duration, the First Wyverian will not give out any statistical information, but this should not affect gameplay in any other way. Please note that the statistical data may be low in accuracy for a short time after the process has finished.

Future Bug Fix

Capcom will attempt to revert a lightning issue on guild card that was introduced by Patch 2.00

Notice and Apology Regarding Guild Card Lighting

Due to updating the Guild Card lighting system when adding new poses during update PS4 Ver. 2.00/Xbox One Ver. 2.0.0.0, the lighting for existing poses were affected and player’s appearance on their Guild Cards underwent a change. We are preparing a fix that will be part of an update in the future so the lighting will be same as before PS4 Ver. 2.00/Xbox One Ver. 2.0.0.0. We appreciate your patience regarding this issue.

Date: February 9th 2018

Changes:

Squads (PlayStation 4)

Fixed an issue where the error message "Failed to retrieve squad information. Please wait and try again." would appear and squad features would not be usable. However, as a result of this fix, players who were affected by this bug will have all of their squad data reset. Additionally, players in squads whose squad leaders have their data reset will also see any affiliated data disappear the next time they log in. We apologize sincerely for the inconvenience, and ask that you reform squads or reinvite players whose data are lost.
Fixed an issue where, rarely, uninvited non-squad members could join a Squad Online Session, or squad members could not join one of their own. Squad Online Sessions can still be joined by players outside of the squad via friend invite or Online Session ID search.

5 Million Celebration Item Pack

Fixed an issue where some players could not claim the item pack "5 Million Celebration Item Pack". The availability for this item pack has been extended to February 22, 23:59 (UTC).

Decorations

Fixed an issue where, under certain conditions, decorations would be lost.
Fixed an issue that occurred when selecting items with the "Sell Items" option (from the item box inside base camp tents) by hiding the decorations tab.

Increased the power of Normal Ammo (1, 2, 3), Pierce Ammo (1, 2, 3), and all elemental ammo (except Dragon Ammo).
Decreased the power of Slicing Ammo, and reduced the effect it has when hitting other players.
Reduced the maximum number of Slashberries you can hold in your item pouch from 60 to 30. Players can still use any remaining extra Slashberries if they currently have more than 30 in their item pouch.

Elderseal

Readjusted the Elderseal calculation for dragon pods.

Endemic Life

Fixed an issue where information on endemic life would disappear from the Wildlife Map when moving about the field.

Quests

Fixed an issue where the assignment "Flying Sparks: Tobi-Kadachi" would not appear on the quest board after departing on a different quest in the middle of speaking with the Chief Botanist just before the quest is first assigned.
Fixed a rare bug that would cause players to lose control of their characters when completing a quest with certain start menu sub-menus open.

Xbox One matchmaking

Our development team is also working tirelessly on pinpointing the issues with matchmaking on Xbox One. We apologize for the delay and appreciate your continued patience and support as we track down and solve these issues.

In the meantime, if you’re unable to use the “Matchmake” option to connect to other hunters, you may still be able to create online lobbies, join others’ lobbies via “Filter Search”, “Invite a Friend”, connect via Xbox One LFG, or join hunts by using the “Respond to SOS” feature.

And in case you haven’t tried this yet, it’s been reported that some hunters have had success using the “Matchmake” feature after setting their NAT connection settings to “Open” on their Xbox One.

(This patch also removed the Decoration Duplicating glitch without mentioning it in the patch notes)
