Guide for: Daimyo Hermitaur

Game: MHFU,MHF2, or/and MH2

Rank: Low rank(and possibly high rank)

Weapon Type: Longsword

Armor: Any as long as it has 70+ defense.

Guide: So let's start. If you are having trouble with Daimyo Hermitaur, you can see this guide anytime. Daimyo is very easy to kill with longswords. There is no rule that says you have to use longswords against him. I simply recommend it. If you're new to him and you feel like mastering his moves, do not hesitate to go to the training school. You can keep dodging in there until you have memorized how he attacks and reacts at a certain situation. He can be evaded easily with longswords, just stick very close to his legs and when he trust to attack, dodge between his 2 legs. I recommend getting eager cleaver too. It has a thunder attribute which can easily kill him. If you are skilled enough already then you can do a high rank Daimyo quest using Eager Cleaver.

The Process

Weapon: Eager Cleaver, Bone Katana Wolf or Dark Scythe Armor: (if starting) Full Velociprey Set. (if already rank 4 and still having trouble) Full Blango set. Items: 10 Potions, Mega Potions, 20 Whetstones, Drinks (you can bring hot and cool just in case), Paintballs, Power Seed/Armor Seed, Steaks, Psychoserum

So get all the materials a blade master can use in the supply box. Gulp down your rations then use Psychoserum. Go to his location when you spotted him, use your power seed. Bring out your long sword and slowly refill your spirit gauge as you dodge between his legs. If he shakes his shell, do 2 dodges to the side and not backward so he won't hit you when he lands. If you refill your spirit gauge, wait for an opening while attacking and when you see one, attack him full force by pressing R many times. If you used a shock trap, do triangle-R-triangle-R-triangle-R-circle+triangle, and it will surely drain his HP. If you are tough enough to stand his attacks, offensively press R repeatedly. When he is finally in rage mode, it is time to bring your defense. You should lessen your attack and dodge more while hitting his legs and keeping your spirit gauge full. Once you knock him down, attack him full force again. You can do this until he dies. Also note that you shouldn't just have your weapon out all the time. There are times when you need to heal and sharpen your weapon. And the use of steak is when your mission lasts longer than you expected. Anyways that's all for my guide.

My Words: Daimyo was fairly easy to me. You can use this guide against Shogun too, but beware of it's different moves. Have a happy shell hunting everyone and Sayonara!
