Mhw most fun weapon reddit What I find most fun about MHGU is the sheer amount of different hunting approach resulting from each weapon having different styles (including Valor/Brave and Alchemy styles, which are introduced in MHXX/MHGU in addition to the existing Guild, Striker, Adept and Aerial styles). You can even jump when dashing, evading breath weapons and getting easy mounts as you can attack while in the air. 🤷‍♂️ Maybe I should call it the most miserable weapon to play instead? But I still love the serotonin I get from 12 explosions on a monster long gunlance on the other hand is the easiest weapon in the game, while wide is still pretty low in the difficulty scale, if you play slaplance it's not the hardest but come on, it's the GUNlance. Everyone has their own playstyle and every weapon is fun in its own way. They put you in low rank and pace the content so you have time to learn whatever weapon you pick. This weapon hits hard, but good knowledge of monster moveset is required. They all are fun, but have their own learning curves, some steeper than others. Ranged weapons are so OP, they're the "game journalist mode" for this game. The only downside of the weapon is it’s range but you get you used to it super fast and work around it. Just so satisfactory I haven't played iceborn yet and plan on doing so, but i feel like i want a new main weapon for that, but i feel like i picked the most fun 2 weapons right from the get-go but of course that isnt what everybody would agree with. SnS, DB, and Hammer are the most braindead and shut your brain off weapons to use if you want mindless fun LS is fun if you like counters and a bit of proactive play for burst damage. i played around with dex build using bolt of gransax and dragon cragblade, fun. Deceivingly easy to play but hard to master like SnS but yet also more armor skill reliant. It's literally jack of all trades, and I'd say that the best part of the weapon is it's versatility / mobility in a hunt. i know this is your personal list but i really feel like you didnt put much time into your lower ranked weapons. If you master this weapon you'll still hit like a truck. Will probably end up playing the one I think is the most fun but I’m curious. My second most used weapon is SNS and on average it takes 3 jump slashes to mount while jumping from a ledge is an instant mount. Problem solved. Wish MH6 has MHW worldbuilding with Rise level of variety builds. Really there is no best as all the weapons and weapon types are great at what they do but lack where others shine, hammer is great for breaking heads but you'll struggle to get wing breaks and can't get tail cuts, this is where longsword shines as it's great at getting the wings and tail, this is obviously true for all weapons. 162 votes, 198 comments. CB requires a lot of management with keeping the various parts charged and phials full but is rewarding once you get down the mechanics. Sword mode has really high dps but the way you make it highest dps in the game is that when you have the powered sword mode, each hit causes a mini explosion that pops for a bit more damage. I used to love sns. It gives a little bit of variation in your gameplay, and gives you some different sets to build and try out. they're just not the "best"). Once i choose, am i locked in? nope, you can use anything you want. I just prefer to play weapons that are average or higher in teir. Lots of explosives. sword and shield for example, item usage is a huge simplification of one of the most versatile weapons in the game. The Lance is one, if not the most, aggressive weapon, don't let the shield and blocking deceive you, they only exist so that you can input counter and turn your defense into an attack, you also will turn walking into an attack, dodging is also an attack, three in fact, you only leave the monster when it is down, because you won't be needing Rise/sunbreak only convinced me more of that. Every single weapon is "viable". This armament need to take times to practice, knowing the movement of monsters, so that you can maximum you dps, but dw, the comabat consciousness will grow as you play the game. Yet the weapon would just be "glaive" without it. 13 votes, 31 comments. I have only 100 hours on it but I cant stop playing it anymore. In other words what is the most fun for you. There's not much consequence to throwing attacks out with DBs, so they're a lot of fun to play risky with. I prefer the boom. Like try every single weapon and just see how it goes. Hammer has the highest damage stats because it has the highest bloat value at 5. Charge Blade is my personal choice for most fun. What I'm wondering, however, is if any of the weapons feel/look better with the graphical and gameplay additions in World? When I started 4U I was drawn (back) to the Greatsword due to the jumping slash. Hammer, spin to win. Finished the endgame farming for MHW Iceborne (Started last year) and it was fun. Hammer is way more maneuverable, fun as well, I preferred GS. That my friend straight up told me to use a different weapon. Get familiar with a few weapons, I regularly use the Hammer, Glaive, and Switch Axe, but I am also comfortable running with Longsword, Sword and Shield, Charge Blade, Dual Blades, and Hunting Horn. 6K votes, 62 comments. Im having fun and thats why i bought the game and why im playing it. Your mileage may vary though. Go hunt some little beasts and see which one is the most fun. It might take some time to get used to, but I guarantee it is a fun weapon once mastered. . So LS, DS, SNS, Lance, CB, maybe even SWAXE. Just try and if you like it, you like it. I've only played IG in mhw. With A and B, I think that's enough reasons to use this weapon, but I still need to clear one thing first. Now IG is prob. Also you might consider searching for a Safi session. And every weapons difficulty is opinionsted. If you think it's a fun weapon, keep using it and crafting more powerful ones when you can. it's a weapon for people who want heavy defense, a simple but effective set of attacks and explosive punctuation's to everything, Wyverns Fire is also very powerful. I picked it up on my second character and my god this is easily one of the most fun weapons in the game if you use most of your available moves. It's fun to make builds around it because you don't take a lot of meta skills like Weakness Exploit on it and instead get to play around with a whole bunch of other I returned to MHW:I a few months ago and what I did was to do a fresh solo run from start to Fatalis with every weapon (no swapping). Then go on a hunt and see how it works for you. It’s the most fun most satisfying weapon. a) this weapon imo is hard to use because, it has no guard or evasive actions also, it has a relatively ling sheath time. 5)LS why foresight slash imo is the best move of this weapon, the big reach is annoying for MP I know but still very good weapon HH is pretty decent in this game, has decent damage in endgame and ok support. Ranged: In the neutral you have to hit and run with draw slashes. Less mobility than some weapons, and not much for defensive capabilities, but BONKE is excellent. In Iceborne you can have the single best shield in the game as a stupid gun and still have more DPS than almost any melee weapon can dream off, except for certain situations. Tbh I haven’t played all of them to the degree of chargeblade lol but guard points and savage axe and (s)aeds r all just so fun and satisfying. Most of the Valor styles are also a lot of fun and usually very effective: Valor GS, LS, Hammer, SnS, Hunting Horn, and HBG. You should practice more in general. They also removed clagger which probably has a higher impact on breezing through the game than the weapon buffs tbh, especially if you play a weapon that was already great. Fun and strong weapon with some nice After that, most of the weapons are good - comparable to Safi weapons most of the time. I’ve tried most weapons that way and their all pretty fun. This weapon fucks. World is comparable to risebreak, but it did hunting horn the most justice relative to risebreak. Always the disclaimer of any weapon they take the time to learn is the best for any skill level, blah blah blah xD Played only MHW and MHR. I am happy seeing it used more than it has in the past where it was always the least used weapon. Crit Status is generally not very good, but Kjarr Numb SnS doesn’t sacrifice too much tRaw and you don’t need Para decos to get the extra proc (check the pinned album for the build). I use a little bit of everything. Both have very interesting combos, feel controllable and effective (for world, that is). With that said, there are a few weapon types I'd recommend: some monsters i use specific weapons for because the matchup is especially fun/satisfying. Just feels sick to dance around a monster while consistently having to damage it mid dashing and slashing. also try Played every weapon but always have the most fun with Greatsword. Guess that's just me though. SnS is probably the most versatile weapon, but also one of the lesser played ones across the community, and because of that versatility and the AWSEOME perk that you can use potions and items without having to sheathe, gave SnS the stigma of it being associated automatically with medic support builds, which by definition don't do as IG is fine. Just personal preference but the gunlance has more variety of attacks and shelling is just fun. This had a lot to do with my brain which had never played a game that had deliberate weapon combat being incapable of understanding why swords and ranged weapons felt so slow and clunky. Otherwise, quick draw basic combo is your bread and butter. #3: Hammers' sliding spin attacks are gross yet awesome at the same time. o Not the most damaging, but it's a fun one and doesn't care about weak spots so always consistent damage output. The Dual Blades for example have such a short range that you can barely hit flying monsters but the fun of this weapon comes from the evasive nature and the aggressive playstyle it offers. I wouldn't recommend you play one, or not play one. That being said, because of the lack of counters or shields, you may find it more difficult and less safe to use. Really satisfying. The monsters' move sets feels way more realistic than Rise. This poll is very closely related to poll #3 as a whole. I play a lot of weapons, but lance is the most fun for me. 4) Charge Blade: Medium a) I feel like this weapon is considered harder by the community because of the higher skill floor. I however, will shill for Sword and Shield because it's my main weapon. The GS is a slow, but satisfying weapon that has devastating attacks that reward good timing and learning the monsters openings, while the lance can just make you feel like a god, using guard 5 and guard up makes it so you can block almost anything in the game. ) It doesn't look like much but it'll build up towards the next knockdown where you can do the bigboi damage. Loved the bow as well, but not a great starting weapon, pretty build heavy. Ruiner Nergigante weapons are the runner up if the class doesn't have a Gold Rathian weapon. tbh I prefer it in MHGU over MHW/I, but it, HH, and SnS (shield attacks) are the ONLY things that should be anywhere near a monster's head most of the time. As per title, just curious :) Charge blade, everything about it is just Sastifying, the speedy sword mode counter attacks with quickstep+side slash, the ability to reposition at the end of any combo, the heavy chunk of Axe mode/Savage axe, each hit is heavy and you can feel it with, of course landing the AED and SAED is like you just split the earth open.

Dual blades is probably the most effective for button mashing. Hammer is also decent similar to HH. then played around with int build after the new patch fixed the darkmoon greatsword, fun too. This makes comparisons within a weapon class easy but across weapon classes harder. Aug 26, 2021 · Charge Blade and Switch Axe are fun, especially CB considering I'm pretty good with it, and Bow and Dual Blades are alright. Rapid fire sticky ammo is a trap mainly because rapid fire comes on sticky 2 at best, which is not a triple fire rapid fire (fires two, with the same reduced damage on second shot), and essentially doing the same amount of damage and per ammo as sticky 3 while taking longer to shoot said ammo, essentially doing less damage and KO over time.

Yeah I like mhw haha but yeah as comment above mentioned it’s popular for mostly really long and continues combos and very good counters or dodges w sheeted weapon in rise it’s the most popular weapon because Capcom kinda forced you to use it since it’s like crazy strong Bow is High Risk High Reward weapon you do ton of damage but you use stamina to attack so attack too much can't roll so you need to learn move set of monster very much and you are long range weapon so get hit take more damage than close range weapon so yeah if you fight level 3 Temp monster they gonna one-shot you pretty much Achieving expert level at any weapon takes a long time and reaching a level where you can't outdamage "better" weapons (dealing the most damage doesn't make a weapon better or more fun in my opinion, it's just objectively the hardest hitting one) because your own weapon choice limits you will take a very long time and you're likely never Playing gunlance with other gunlancers is pretty OP and a lot of fun.
