incredible

I was hearing god all time until i see your comment

Amen to Jesus, the Son of God✝️🛐🙏🏼❤️

I really want to thumbs up this, but it sits at 666...so...😈

charge blade should give the same vibe as lance and gunlance

@@chriswu772 CB is Like Semi-Tank,While Lance is Unstoppable Tank

Eh it kinda sucks tried it out for a week and went back to the hammer immediately after

@@danielholden4877 bruh

And with gunlamce you feel like voltron

Eddie Lee Mojica Or just moving in general. Hold L2 while guarding to strafe. It allows you to long back hop or guard dash back from neutral.

Good good

A basic move.

moving ANY* direciton

Fuck this is Op haha

gunlance : barely pokes monster CERCLE CERCLE CERCLE

I sense a story behind that

no other weapon can make you feel so powerful yet so small at the same time...

Just a smol aggro turtl

its like you're doing a met in front of X and Zero Then X and Zero decides to turf war instead```````````````````````````````````

@@KingM1023 brother

Aint that the truth. I have the most trouble with the small n fast mfers

WhiteVII Lmao its facts

I spam the shit out of the charge attack when the monster is down or running away. It cuts off the monster’s tail quite fast plus the average damage output stack up really really fast on large monsters. They act as a wall will prevent you from running right through them.

thanks, man I just switched and needed a few tips. Are there any upgrade paths your recommend? I'm having trouble with the odogaron.

Chazz adams The Perditions Hand (Nerg Lance) is the goto. But for odogaron use the Legiana lance since it’s weak to ice. A few other lances: The Kirin Lance (Thunderspear I think) The Odogaron lance (the affinity is amazing) The Rathalos Lance cause the fire damage is really good. Finally the Vaal Hazak Lance because it looks dope AF.

Wetw0rk that's just Monster Hunter Long ago I mainly use LS and GS only but after few hundred hours I get tired and tried other weapon, now I could use all weapon decently tho still mainly use 3-4 of them

I said that. Now I'm running out of weapons to master.

Wetw0rk definitely agree switching! I have all the switch axes and was getting a bit bored. Got a hammer drop from Kulve Taroth and now love using that. Had some spare stream stones so it has health regen. I use to hate tempered Jho so will try it with a different weapon when it comes back. Switch axe sucked for Jho.

Wetw0rk I play hammer ,bow gun and lance

lmao, im on ur current situation right now and yep dis is truee

Guard dash is better in this regard

THANK YOU, I was just fighting Vhaal last night and it was hell, then it became super easy once I got the Uragaan Guard skill

Better a silly girl than a boy with a horse and a stick

YEAH BABY!! BOTH OF YO UARE GETTING SUBBED FOR THAT

I got the game like 2 days ago, I'm completely new to the series and I have to say, I'm absolutely loving it

me too dude!!

I main GS but I do use lance for specific monsters. Especially against temper jho.

Bujin Kan Right here brudda

Shieldsmen in arms unite!

Here bother

I do use lance alot in a party, but my main is a longsword.

Would the deviljho one work

Thanks for the great build tips mate

@SUBJECT M01 I'm glad it's still helpful this far out! It's a bit different now since Iceborne came out, still uses most of the same armor varieties luckily, but overall it's still a decent build. I've seen some builds that blow this one away, but this one (and its newer variants) is easier to make than many of those.

​@chalupamonsters23 still helpful my dude ✌️

It gets better with clutch claw from iceborne

Sucks how Barroth armour, first easy source of Guard skill, gives negative fire resist

Michael Talley lancers assemble!

Ready to poke some ass

Shields ready!!

Together,We are strong!!

Whohooo!

Thanks

Omega Snake The power guard though can block multiple hits, so you can use that if you are getting hit with multiple hits.

that is true, i am just saying about the counter.

Omega Snake In the last patch they added armor for any follow up hits. You will take damage but not get knocked out of position.

good to know

if you're quick enough after a counter of a multihit's first hit you can tap and hold R and go into powerguard from the knockback animation, that often works against multihits if you were to slow to get into powerguard, but also helps for the additional counterthrust damage compared to normal counter thrust dmg

Why would a lancer need health regen.

Nicholas Schoepfer because you take small amounts of damage when you block attacks and it can wear your health down over a fight without any kind of healing

Do you you really need guard when you have guard up jewel? And you should try 3 piece val hazak with lance it's chessy af lol

Paladin at least 3 so you can guard everything from roars to unblockables. I like mine to be at Guard 5 because you just feel very invincible. You dont flinch at all if you block Teostra’s Supernova

ＣｈａｍｐｅｒｉｎｏＰｏｇ if you have guard 3 or 5 then you don't need guard up skill?

Argel Comia why wouldn’t you use power guard against the dive bomb?

Lance is low-key one of the most beginner-friendly weapons. The only real hurdle is getting used to the movement and from there it becomes a simple flowchart of To Poke or Not To Poke.

I know this comment is 1 year old but I'm curious did you end up maining Lance?

@@obiguanche5512 I know this comment is 1 year old but I'm curious did you end up finding out if he's maining Lance?

If you continue the combo with a counter block rather than hop you can maintain your stamina.

@@nomkem7473 With how quickly stamina recharges in this game, even as a lance user, i never have too much trouble procing max might, even with no stamina recharge up skills

Yuri Costa, Very true

Also with DB. Why? *demon mode*

The long time you have to wait if you hit a wall or enemy armor while doing the speedy-stabby-sprinty and not doing the finishing thrust? The character bounces off, steps back a little and then tries to charge again, failing even if there's nothing in front of them, leaving you wide open for way too long

I'm not sure what your point is. If that happened to you you fucked up. That's not an issue with the weapon.

Zer0Hour17 Always funny how that works: I'm a bow main and get relatively little use from that gem and have like 3 of them. That said, lance is my second most used (we're talking 700+ hunts with bow to like 50 with lance), so I have used it some.

SamuFinland if you run into walls that often, just guard, and it will stop the run before hitting the wall

remembering the MH4U days lol

As you can counter with longswords foresight slash

Roars are still attacks in MHW so anything that goes through an attack counters roars. Iirc the GS shoulder goes through charges as well

and you can walk in roars toward the monster so its better

so am i, and i don't need a shield to be untouchable =P

TJpek yeah that's not theory thats fact lol so you're spot on

I think the logic is that you are fighting. Massive beasts that could kill you in 1 sweep, so you hold your shield with your dominant arm to raise it faster and so you can brace more effectively. Then from a game design prospective it is probably to keep the weapon which extends upward to the middle of the screen over to the left side which has the majority of the UI, this leaves the center right side with a large clear area for viewing the monster.

Fatal Foxtrot it’s almost purely because sns can use items so has shield on right therefore they don’t need to make a new animation for eating back in ps1 days

I’m the same way, I really hope MHW gets an update that allow us to switch which hand wield the weapon or position of the hand. Also they should give us an update that will make a mirror image for hair style. But once the Switch gets this game next year (because Nintendo almost always every game a few years later) I’m sure they’ll get a Link skin and he’ll correctly wield the Master Sword and Hyrule Sheild in the correct hands. (He’s a lefty)

Well, now you know how left-handed people feel whenever we play almost every other game.

"Je suis monté!"

We need an IG that looks like a baguette...

Becca McCookie I second that, although it supports prejudice and bias.

One of my hunting buddies is french and he keeps setting his normally english shoutouts to Je suis monté for shits and giggles, so as long as everyone knows there is no hostility behind it, I think it's fine. He's also great with any weapon, so there won't be a "pardon" for fucking up a mount ;)

Cries in hunting horn fam

Mahogany Black wait till you get a guard up deco and can use val hazak set.

indeed we shall tank and spank

A shame since its such a really good weapon

its my main weapon, so i look forward to it

I don't doubt it. Its just I don't know how use it yet

“EAT THIS”

Sadly. I love when someone in my party is playing the horn.

ah yes a new lance brother like i

It is viable, but you need to be precise when you evade, between hops theres a small window where you are indeed vulnerable, so no more 3 hopes of complete invulnerability xd (Which btw was a bit broken back then) PS: I GOT THAT REFERENCE!

It was broken, but in a game that considered Apex Rajang fair, I was more than happy to abuse it^^ In World I don't mind a less broken mechanic. Not that World doesn't have broken mechanics... *cough* Longsword Foresight Slash *cough*

i havent tried a evade skill focused set yet, powerguard just makes your life easy and hopping through tailswipes and other little moves does only require a bit of practice as it is relatively ez to i frame without evd skills in world

It's viable but it's no longer the meta. Guard Lancing is the way to go, and the way it should be IMO. You have a shield for a reason

I just wanna say, thank you for that quote, glad I was not the only one who thought about that

‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ I just face away from the monster start the charge animation and do the backwards sweep finisher easiest thing to hit for me. Since both finishers have the same motion value pretty sure

oh i didnt know they were the same well i think my method is also pretty easy to hit since it turns for like almost 45°

Yeah, for maximum comfort use some kind of Immortal Lance build with Vaal Hazak set bonus and Health Regen on the lance... not the best damage but being able to play recklessly and hardly ever having to use a potion i still manage to kill him in about 10-15 mins solo. But i swear the game knows i'm cheesing the fight... I've killed him 10 times now and only got 2 Warrior Streamstones out of it so far. :(

May I ask what your set setup is?

I posted a video of a tempered deviljho lance build and didn't have to use a single healing item. Guard 5 really makes all the difference.

Vaal Hazak Lance with Health Regen and Sharp Jewel, Dragonking Eyepatch with Tenderizer Jewel, Vaal Mail Beta and Recovery Jewel + Grinder Jewel, Vaal Braces Beta with 3 Medicine Jewels, Vaal Coil Beta with 2 Vitality Jewels, Death Stench Heel Beta with Vitality and Grinder Jewel and the Ironside Charm III. It gives you Vaal's Super Recovery, 150 base HP for up to 200 with food, +30% recovery when restoring health, 4x health regen speed, Weakness Exploit 3, Handicraft 2 to get that sliver of white sharpness on the lance, Protective Polish to make that last for a minute, Speed Sharpen 2 and Peak Performance 2 since you're at max HP quite often. I opted to go with the Guard charm because Jho's attacks are so relentless i like being able to recover from these hits faster and counterattack more easily, and just Guard 3 from the charm is good enough for that i feel. If you're not as stingy as i am and want to use Whetfish Fins to speed up sharpening you could replace the 2 Grinder Jewels with something else. Maybe not the most optimal build but it works for me. Haven't played Lance all that much in World, but with this i generally don't feel threatened by him and still manage to get 10-15 min hunts (with using bombs, traps and capturing him). I just like not having to worry and pretty much buttonmash poke him to death, definitely not the most skillful way of handling him... but whatever works, right? :P

Thanks a lot! I haven't tried the Lance in World yet, so this is definitely a set that will keep me alive while I "git gud" (plus it's an excuse to use that sexy Vaal Lance). Compared to older games World is very firgiving even if you don't max out your DPS, making a lot of playstyles viable. I personally admire speedrunners like Canta, for instance, but I play the game for the David vs. Goliath feeling and the flashy attacks of some weapons, so the playstyle of a speedrunner would take away from that. And if a monster really gives me trouble, I use whatever I can to win... like sleep bombing tempered Kirin to death because I refused to triple cart on my first attempt against a goddamned unicorn...

i usually like using it to prep my hops and shield charges

Nicholas Coleman Why?

The joke is that every weapons workshop video is so well explained and he makes the weapon seem so fun it makes you use the weapon

Punking X lol I understood the joke but the only weapon arekzz convinced me to try was charge blade

You made a good choice. Lance will take you very far, free from the constraints of ammo or meter management.

Totally didn't happen to me the entire time yesterday. Totally not.

facts, I don't feel safe enough with any other weapon Though HBG with 3 shield mods does come close

how is it not flashy to be a single hunter and stop a fucking divebombing NERGIGANTE DROPPING AT YOUR ASS FROM ABOVE

にゃあエイリアンMeowAlien *Lance is OP, you lil shits keep charging my tail when I'm down*

“Lance doesn’t do much damage” Bullshit. You’re CONSTANTLY attacking the monster. It doesn’t matter that it’s at most 30-60 per poke, because it’s _constant_ most other weapons won’t attack as frequently as lance without having a break.

With health regen augs you can literally not need to heal at all.

Tyler abstractCourier 30 to 60 is low. Most of my lance builds hit 60 to 100.

though you still have to eventually stop to sharpen the lance during a hunt, but that can be done when the monster runs to another area.
