Great vid as always!!! Love the "this not in the game" on striker. LOL

Striker Hammer has some more other changes: -Charges slightly faster -Super Pounds deal more damage And the most important change of all: if you do a jumping super pound, if you follow it up with X, you do a second super pound. That is REALLY good for exhaust damage

I love the hammer with arial style, running the deviant Lagombi set. You can do so much in terms of mounting and toppling, and it's good for at least two ko's in a five minute hunt when your the only hammer bro with three others. I never used hammer until this generation, but now I love it, and it's one of my mains.

Arekkz, you forgot to mention that in Striker style you charge the R attacks twice as fast as normal, and it stacks with Focus too. Also I think the Super Pound is slight stronger compare to other styles, since it has the visual effect similar to the strong Uppercut in Aerial or the R1 in Bushido.

You forgot to mention the secondary benefit of Striker Style (besides the hunting arts) ... Your 'R' charge is INSANELY fast. Striker is definitely the hammer style for people who just love doing those super-slams and whirlwind spins. (And since the meteor slam and typhoon trigger are basically just super-powered alternatives to those moves, I'll usually subsitute one for something like Heal Gain or Castle Walls or even Oasis, and become a shield-less tank) That being said, I really really like Bushido/Adept Hammer, because you have so much more control over WHERE and WHEN you unleash your counter-attacks and they are so stylish and getting in monsters' faces and then rolling out of the way comes so naturally to hammer anyways.

I'd like to also hear about what skills are recommended for each weapon presented. Sometimes, it's hard to search around for what is best. Great job on these!

I struggle so much with the hammer and this video makes it so clear now, thank you so much!

Can't wait to see what they changed with the gunlance...

Damn man, I've never been that big on the impact weapons myself, but the stuff they can.... really making me eye them closer. I love this style of video, very informative, and well executed. You made the hammer look this good here, I'm curious what you'll do to the hunting horn. Great stuff Arrekz.

These weapon tutorials are so great! Information so organized and nicely put! Congrats

thanks for the beginner explanation, this helped so much

wow striker style has some HEFTY sacrifices.But never mind their will always be a style for everyone

Again, amazing work. I'm really liking this new series. Awesome design too, I really feel this is a great upgrade from the last MH video. Hammer looks incredibly fun and loving the new variety of charges introduced by bushido.

I like striker most, as it's fun smashing the head repeatedly in the same way, and the taunt is really useful for having a monsters face right in front of you

I still feel like Aerial Hammer with a status weapon could be good for an aggro support build. For a hammer? Sounds weird right? But using Provoke with traps, Mounting skills with Aerial hits, and Status support could make for an interesting playstyle. I'm always one for versatility.

I think losing the level 3 charge attack with aerial style is a good thing, at least for me personally. I know a good number of hammer users prefer to use the level 2 charge over the level 3 cus of the distance it dashes you forward. I almost never use level 3 charge attacks myself. Also you would be correct in assuming that losing the golf swing in stryker style is a deal breaker for me using that style.

Wish the spinning meteor was the best Hunter art it looks so cool

Bushido Hammer looks fresh, that bushido charge attack is almost like a hunter art on its own. These guides are very good, but gaijin does include the motion values, which is a big deal to me. I want to know EXACTLY how much damage I'm doing.

The last hunter art is actually more for stunning the monster than dealing damage. It's motion values arent that great but stun dmg is great

Anxiously awaiting IG, as I've hit a kind of renaissance with that weapon lately.

playing mh4u gotten used to hammer playing cross WTF IS GOING ON

hunting horn please, i have a feeling the best option is between bushido and aerial just for more movement

Superb tutorial for the Hammer =) Glad that the Bushido style is so viable for it! It's pretty ironic thinking about it.

Losing the uppercut in bushido is actually a pretty big deal even though the new charging attacks make up for it.

Everyone is going on about how swoll adept hammer is, but aerial hammer's level 3 is a better uppercut. Also the combination of stunning and mounting monsters seems really useful. I don't see many videos of ppl trying it out though.

I like both Aerial and Bushido styles :)

my KO king is back! im so happy! ^o^

Hammer Bushido is my next main solo weapon ! Just have to decide if i play with cats or not.

7:50 Not everything else is the same. You forgot to mention how the shorter spin attack can't be followed up with a triple pound combo instantly and instead has a delay before you can attack again. This isn't a huge lose but it does affect the overall flow and mobility of the hammer in the same way the change to the level 1 charge attack does.

Charge Blade or Longsword is what I'm hoping to see next

where is the next tutorial lol I am nervously waiting :D

I cannot wait for insect glaive.....I have not seen the third skill for insect glaive and its my mainm so I am exited and stuff

Hopefully you can upload the Greatsword next!!!

Dual blades next please

Fantastic and informatice as always!

Much better than gaijinhunter guide.

Note that if you miss the Aerial A button move in the air you'll suffer from delay.

So much good stuff. I wish i could use gunner AND blademaster armor but it seems zenny will be pretty rare this time, so making multiple armor parts before endgame won't be very viable. Kind of sad, since this iteration is focusing on multiple ways of playing the game ("How do YOU hunt?") but at the same time makes it punishable to experiment a lot, since you are running out of zenny so fast. So far i played hammer, insect glaive and switch axe in mhu4 but i REALLY want to get a hammer again AND play lbg, since the damage got balanced and hammer looks even more fun than before.

background music/theme name?

Charge Blade Please,Arekkz!

Not a hammer user but cool vid.

Arekkz i got a question. I wanna hear your opinion about that. MH startes off on Playstation consoles but switched to nintendo which was great. But would you rather play MHX on 3ds or if capcom decides to publish Monster Hunter Online or another MH game on next gen consoles? I mean this MH is great and there are many new things compared to MH4U. But wouldn't it be more awesome if MH would reach a "new level" with amazing graphics and so on. Would be nice to get a reply

preparation is key :)

Hammer all the way!!!

hunting horn next plz

to all monster hunter players:. ITS HYPER ARMOR NOT SUPER ARMOR

I really wanna see hunting horn!

Thanks master!

do long sword next

idk I think I might main switch axe or great sword in mhx or mhxu when it comes out

Longsword next please

Where is the Ultimate version of the game?

please light bowgun or bow

Please do switch axe next, the curiosity is killing me T_T

can you do the hunting horn? also love the vids :)

Would using the Focus skill allow Aerial hammer to get off a lv 3 after a jump?

How about Dual Blades next?

How to jump when using aerial style? Pls help

I can see why people would not like losing the golf swing, but if the tradeoff is three hunter arts, then I'm thinking it's worth it.

can u do glavie nexts plz

do you have a recommendation for hunter arts? the taunt is obviously good for team hunts but what about the two other ones? which one would you recommend?

Arekkez questions is Bushido hard to use and is the dodge distance greater then that of the guild style? also as a Hammer main I agree the golf swing is a powerful move but for me its somewhat expendable the level 3 charge slam is irreplaceable to me as the sheer damage it does is amazing and the spin attack is great for getting in and dealing some serious leg damage p.s I cant wait to be able to provoke monsters my friend wont stand near the trap with me to lure it in

Insect Glave PLZ!

Is there a cooldown on the Bushido dodge thing, seems a bit strong to essentially have like an Evasion +3 or higher dodge and it seems to launch u further then a regular dodge too.

+Arekkz Gaming is there english version in it?

I just imagined infinite overhead pound in Striker, it is so stupid, but the good stupid.

what hammer is that?

next week pls longsword or greatsword

What gear are you using in this video?

what armor is that one?

Can someone tell me how to get Jumbo bones in Generations?

Whats the music?

is this game on PC or 3ds?

Do u know when it coming out at Australia if that ok

I can't see bushido style

bow plz

I like hammer, but shit thing is when playing solo u cant cut tail :(

pls... dual swords.

bushido for me

Dual blades dual blades duel blades 😂

Bushido ?

My internet went down- save my senpai!

My God... no offense my friend, but you talk EXTREMLY fast. Way too quick for me at least, to be able to snap up what you're saying. Still, you cover some things I haven't seen in other videos. Does the Bushido Style LVL 3 charge do K.O or Exhaust damage? I heard that LVL 3 charge is only exhaust. Does Bushido make an exception?
