nyonmyan Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 45 minutes ago, ThatMuttGuy said: I had a quest that gave me a mini Vaal (I already had, but a friend needed it) and a silver Vaal. Then we had another Vaal that looked bigger than the silver, but didn't update. So, I don't trust sizes anymore. I just go with my gut. My giant gold Vaal was even smaller than some silver Vaals I killed. I have the feeling that the game is cheating sometimes. All of the visually giant Vaals I've killed I did solo, and they gave me nothing, but when someone joined my hunt I suddenly got the gold crown from not-as-big one.

When I was hunting for mini Teostra yesterday, I could really see the difference when it was just 1 step smaller and a mini. I ran into two or three that were 1 step away and it didn't get me a small crown, but when I finally found one that was few centimeters smaller (could visually see it), it was smallest crown. I noticed that if you try to measure the monster when it walks uphill or downhill, it distorts the size visually. I've had Teostra walk uphill from Diablo lair looking huge then becoming small as it walks on a flat surface. The best thing to do is always measure when it's not going up or downhill, not even a small slope or low angle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xDriverZero Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 You can always 'save scum' if running low on Investigations, this is pure RNG, after downloading previous save small crown Vaal spawned on Investigation I previous got nothing from.

Yes, and you wont feel bad leaving the quest after checking the monster size just to make the quest harder for host. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its literally the last elder crown i need. Did you measure it, or just chance across it? Is there any way to tell if it's small enough? Still need small Nerg and both small and large Vaal, but I've not been actively hunting Vaal. I swear, once I get the elders out the way, I'll just wait for event quests for the rest.

vex1993_ Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 I'm currently doing only 1 gold, 1 silver reward for both gold crown hunts (they cannot ever have initial attempt count of 8, from my exp.). For small gold crown, I prioritize short time limit quests with as few faints as possible and in giant gold crown hunting vice versa. That seems to work the best. The speculations of these correlations that increase gold crown chance would be eased if Capcom published some facts on this matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I swear, once I get the elders out the way, I'll just wait for event quests for the rest. I couldn't tell how to measure it so I just decided to fight it and on my 3rd try when i ran towards it I was 100% sure it was small nerg based on its size. It is pretty obvious I feel. Small Kushala on the other hand I just can't tell. Every time i think its the smallest one but it turns out not to be. Yeah once i get small kushala i am going to wait for events to get the rest.

Do you mean backup your save and then reload the old file when you run out of investigations? I thought about doing that.... I'm running out of investigations for damn Pukeis.

sibuls Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 (edited) three crown left (1 large nerg, 1 small Dodogama, 1 large Uragaan) day 2 searching for uragaan large still no luck... and almost bang my head for 2450 silver crown....

MansNotFuego Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 (edited) The new event quest 'Wildspire Bolero' should function like the other event quest known for giving crowns. It contains Kulu Ya Ku, Barroth, Jyuratodus, Rathian and Diablos. On my first completion, I managed to get a Large Rathian and Mini Barroth, will be farming a lot more and give updates EDIT: Took about 2 days of on/off but I ended up getting all the crowns fairly quick by measuring for specific monster(s) Edited March 1, 2018 by MansNotFuego Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ItsWhooper Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Any tips on getting large crowns? I've gotten 1 through an investigation and 10 from the events from this week and last week. I've gotten nearly every mini crown by doing quests that have at least 1 silver and 1 gold reward but just can't seem to find myself any giant gold crowns. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
