The summary of ‘Can Followers Kill Monsters For You? – Automatic Hunting Guide – Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak!’

The video explores the mechanics of using followers in Monster Hunter to assist in hunts. The content creator tests followers' abilities to deal damage effectively, highlighting their strengths and weaknesses. Despite the followers' disappointing solo damage output, they play crucial roles in breaking monster parts, creating combat openings, and providing support for the player.

In this segment of the video, the content creator sets out to test the capability of new mechanics in Monster Hunter by attempting to kill a monster with no damage from themselves or their buddies. The creator chooses offensive followers, Luchika and Fugen, for the experiment, leveraging their high damaging default weapons and offensive skills. Additionally, the creator supports the followers with attack songs and various buffs to aid in the hunt. Along the way, it’s noted that followers will only engage the monster if the player initiates some damage within a certain timeframe. Luchika excels in destroying monster parts, while Fugen creates openings with various toad usage. The chosen monster, Angeneth, is selected due to its favorable hit zones for both ranged and sharp weapons used by the followers.

In this segment, the video discusses the disappointing damage output of the monster followers in the game. Despite using high-tier weapons and armor, the followers are unable to solo even the lowest star rating monster. Their damage contribution is found to be significantly lacking, raising questions about their effectiveness in hunts. The followers are revealed to have other roles beyond dealing damage, such as breaking monster parts and creating openings for the player to attack. It is concluded that the followers do not exist primarily as a damage source but serve other supportive functions in hunts.

In this segment of the video, the speaker discusses how having followers in the game increases damage output for the player but clarifies that the followers themselves do not contribute significant damage during hunts. The experiment aimed to see if followers could solo a monster, which was deemed not possible based on the results. Followers create opportunities for the player, assist in secondary objectives, and divert monster attention, yet they are not a game-changing force in combat. Despite their limitations, followers add fun elements like unique voice lines and interactions with each other. Overall, the follower system is considered more of a cosmetic feature rather than a powerful tool for improving hunt effectiveness.
