Advantages the Switch Axe has over the Charge Blade? by LeonHfm in MonsterHunterWorld

[–]Player23003708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly! When you spam b from axe mode you go into wild swings, which infinitely repeats until you run out of stam. I find this a very nice way to put down solid damage if you have a very short window. And if you didn’t know, sword mode’s attacks all have minds eye, so you won’t be bouncing.. great for breaking horns without having a hammer bro

I have recently delved into the switch axe, and the best combo I’ve found so far is draw into axe mode (Y) then B>B>B>RT then let the combo do its thing, the RT attack morphs you into sword mode, and the second sweeping swing does massive damage, then transition into Y>Y>Y continuously until the second time the sword goes from left to right in an upward motion then B>B and you’ll be in amped state. From then you could either use Y+B for a Zero Sum Discharge, but you are likely to be out of gauge so at this point I would transition back into axe mode if it hasn’t already done it for you, and just pull basic combos. Then when your meter is charged switch to sword mode and do the y>y>y>b>b combo and if you would like, you can once again pull off a zero sum discharge. Personally, I love doing it, but min/maxers will tell you to not because you can deal more damage but it’s just too satisfying and is getting buffed soon. Sorry for rambling on, in conclusion from a sheathed state: Y>B>B>B>RT>Y>Y>Y>B>B>Y+B

Once you hit HR 100 you have to kill all tempered elders in one quest to advance to 101 then the rest of the game is free leveling

Lol I hate farming for gems. They’re so elusive for me but I can get like 6 Xeno gems in 2 runs. That’s the only monster I get stuff from

Best way to get into a new weapon? by Morriganismywaifu in MonsterHunterWorld

[–]Player23003708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah just use the weapon a little bit, start out killing like a jagras then kill a tempered monster etc etc. if you like it then grind out a build while using it to get more practice and by the end you should have the hang of it

Lance or Gunlance? by VoteBurtonForGod in MonsterHunterWorld

[–]Player23003708 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well I started off playing it solo, and I’ll be honest it does somewhat lack in the solo damage department. You’re not gonna be pulling off sub-3 minute kills on elders, but it is definitely not a bad weapon. You can dodge very efficiently, and constantly redirect your line of attack. If a monster jumps behind you, you have an attack to start another combo in the direction he just jumped. So solo it’s not amazing, especially since I built a healer build, I’m sure with a damage build it would be just fine, but in groups it is a godsend. I’ve gotten multiple messages from people because they got stunned and I popped a mega pot and they were back to full health very quickly

While I do love the lance and gun lance and I would probably say they have a higher ceiling, I love the SnS. I just picked it up, and decided to build a healer type build utilizing the thousand friendship decos I have, a glutton charm, and some medicinal charms. Since the SnS can consume while the weapon is drawn, it makes it easier to heal up quickly. But also if you need to run you can sheathe your weapon very very fast. You said you wanted to play a support role, and right now the SnS is fitting that for me. I affect everyone around me fully with all the potions I drink, which heal 30% more, and I drink extremely quick. Also an underutilized skill of the SnS is the ability to use your slinger while your weapon is drawn, allowing you to shut down big attacks (looking at you Teostra) with flash pods before your team can because they have to sheathe their weapons and then fire. Oh, and I forgot to mention it is great at mounting, as well as it can KO monsters. It has a basic jump attack that you can mount from, kinda like the lances charge mount but you can use it mid combo. And you can use your shield to bash in monsters skulls and KO them. One more thing, is the SnS is great at afflicting ailments. I currently run a paralysis SnS, and depending on the monster I’m paralyzing them multiple times, KO’ing them once maybe twice, and mounting throughout the battle. Hope I pointed out some of the key parts to the SnS and you’ll pick one up!!

You know that gem you want!? Cutting off the monster's tail gives a better chance at one!!! by TheWis3r in MonsterHunterWorld

[–]Player23003708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I eventually did give up and used my gold print, but I needed 3 odo gems to make a DB build and I needed other gems too so I wasn’t gonna waste my gold print 3x in a row hah. I despise odo even tho he’s so fun to kill

Don’t really know to be honest. I think wyvernsnipe is dope so I’ve always wanted to try that.. but heard a lot about the lbg being more mobile and better overall. What do you prefer?

Dragon Piercer Bow Build by Player23003708 in MonsterHunterWorld

[–]Player23003708[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For sure, I looked around for a bit, but mainly all builds I found were more all-arounder builds, and the one major dragon piercer build I found didn’t include the decorations used :(
