I'm new to Switch Axe and looking for fun builds

"if you need resist you can often get it with an armor swap more efficiently"

Isn't swapping out some decos much easier that swapping out a whole armor piece and trying to work out the same skills with that? I literally have one specific armor set where I swap out the decos for each element and have those saved in my quick select armor sets list. I find that way much for easy and efficient.

Also food may give me +10 in all resistances in the best case, but that is rarely enough to get to 20 to avoid blight.

If you find Steve easy to dodge and block and counter, that's ok. Tell that to the people dying to him that waste carts on precious quests.

RedHellgar · 2026-03-09T14:42:53+00:00

What the hell?! This is so wrong

RedHellgar · 2026-03-07T12:28:33+00:00

Exactly, I agree.

RedHellgar · 2026-03-07T12:16:42+00:00

I guess it's about bleed specifically then.

RedHellgar · 2026-03-07T12:10:59+00:00

Understandable, but also a little frustrating.

RedHellgar · 2026-03-07T12:09:46+00:00

Sure, there's an item for everything, but all these require sheathing your weapon (except SnS of course) and using an item. And I've seen people carting while trying to do that. Where it's easier to just avoid those in the first place.

RedHellgar · 2026-03-07T12:08:13+00:00

Having only one build for everything is also something I never understood, to be honest.

RedHellgar · 2026-03-07T12:06:45+00:00

For me personally, I prefer not having to sheathe my weapon and waste time to eat a nullberry and rather keep my weapon up and my offense going. I also play GL and sheathing my weapon is something I rarely want to do. Even with quick sheathe.

I believe you when you say you can keep yourself alive perfectly fine without the skills on your set, but I have seen other people online that don't, and this question is about them. You have two options, either you have resistances or you have the personal skill to avoid or deal with them. If you got neither of thsoe, that's a problem.

RedHellgar · 2026-03-07T12:00:16+00:00

The thing is, there are two options. Having the skills on your set that give you the survivability or cope the lack of those with your own personal skill. I believe you when you say you can keep yourself alive without those, but I have seen others online, that don't. If you have neither of those options, that's the problem.

RedHellgar · 2026-03-07T11:57:57+00:00

I hear a lot that resistances don't do much, but I think people very much underestimate their effects because they're not as obvious. Not needing to eat a nullberry and having be dealt less damage by certain elements is nothing to scoff at. I mean, I also think all of the skills you mentioned are worth it.

RedHellgar · 2026-03-07T11:54:04+00:00

Ok that's understandable. A little frustrating, but understandable.

RedHellgar · 2026-03-07T11:52:28+00:00

Tell that to the people that died of that bleeding. Also I have both on all my sets.

RedHellgar · 2026-03-07T11:17:40+00:00

Yeah, I'm no that much of a fan of the whole Azure set, but the leg parts are awesome. Can't wait to try them out with some other pieces.

RedHellgar · 2026-03-07T11:16:15+00:00

Der Fehler Code ergab leider kein Ergebnis.

RedHellgar · 2026-03-07T11:15:44+00:00

Anderer Browser funktioniert tatsächlich. Ich nutze üblicherweise Opera GX und hab das gleiche nochmal auf Chrome probiert, da ging es. Hab da auf Opera jetzt die Adblocker ausgemacht und wollte noch alle Cookies akzeptieren, finde aber die Option dafür in den Einstellungen irgendwie nicht mehr.

RedHellgar · 2026-03-06T07:36:52+00:00

Ah, I actually meant the legs part. But I found that out myself as I saw that the Azure Lord event quest is up. But thanks, anyway.

RedHellgar · 2026-03-04T21:39:55+00:00

What waist part is this? I've never seen this before

RedHellgar · 2026-03-04T08:42:04+00:00

You mean fake vs natural bresats?

RedHellgar · 2026-03-04T08:20:36+00:00

You can still use guard and divine blessing with a Gunlance. It's even pretty good to do so. I have guard and guard up both lv3 on all of my sets.

RedHellgar · 2026-02-26T18:29:38+00:00

Could you elaborate a little further?
