Thoughts on the Gunlance? I think it's neat.
Gunlance is consistently my favorite weapon to play. Shame that shelling damage often falls off in G Rank, but it's never enough to push it out of my rotation of weapons.
completely shit in oldgenany gameplay i see of it pre world just involves using it exactly as you would the lance and with no shelling involved, whats the point?
>>739003297>completely shit in oldgenMHFO (even before moveset rework in G), MHP3, MH3U, MH4 (not 4U)
>>739002609Anyone have that tiermaker format with the uhh all the weapons from every generation?
>>739003543>MH4 (not 4U)trying it in 4u completely filtered me
>>739003685it's only in MH4 not in 4U, shelling was overtuned
>>739002609the one special move in rise where it reloads and shoots everything at once is fun
Only ever been fun once
>>739003297It was good against white fatalis armor mode
Sunbreak GL is peak.
>Full burst>Valor reload>Repeat 3 times>Monster is deadGU low rank is very boring
>>739002609Funlance peaked at sunbreak
>>739002609>People always meme about CB being this overly complicated weapon>Gunlance is even more overly complicated with two different ammos to manage, three Gunlance types, and weird combo routes
>>739005157If you're 13 years old, sure.
>>739002609cool concept but they don't know what to do with it, same as every other hybrid weapon
>>739003154I'm pretty sure in Wilds shelling scales with power now
>>739002609Aerial Funlance and Guild Hunting Horn are some of my favorite iterations of those weapons
>>739002609my favorite weapon in Wilds, for every other gen, it's Lance all the way
>>739005157Sunbreak funlance was fantastic. Easily the most fun with a GL I've ever had. Regular old Lance was also eating good in terms of fun
>>739004953the only thing it has going for it is movement, damage-wise it's bottom two or three. RBD being wirebug-dependent is terrible too, just bad design
>>739006470If I wanted to speedtroon I'd play bowgun or whatever.But I play games to have FUN.
>>739006593not really about speedrunning as much as it is not feeling frustrated by playing a weapon that underperforms by design. to each his own, of course, i played through SB on GL and it became a slog during the later anomaly levels.
>>739002609it's a weapon for bitches>I don't have to learn the monster because I have lance blocking but without the counters/movement that make lance interesting>I don't have to learn spacing because half my kit ignores hitzones and the other half is big swings that are impossible to miss>I don't have to be useful because lol my weapon is so weak guys haha nothing I could do just glad to be here =)
>>739002609it's the only weapon that has a dedicated subreddit and in oldgen it had a pink icon on the guild card. really says everything that has to be said
>>739006729>blocking
>>739006729yeah that last point is what irritates me most. It feels very insecure when you purposefully go with the worst weapon in a game.
>bro look at my rocket jump I did nothing especially useful with it but it's a rocket jump lolyup it's a sb gl clip
>>739002609I get tripped by gunlance/bugstick fags infinitely more then I do by even the most braindead longsword player, polearm fags get the rope
>>739007562ummmm...owned???
>>739002609It's a pokestick except it explodes sometimes. Just as boring as Lance.
>>739007562why be a faggot?
>>739005336My biggest problem with gunlance is the weird combo routes and buttons doing completely different things based on what your most recent input was. It changes from game to game too.
>>739005157thank god we trades this for focus mode
I miss Valor Shelling.
>>739010307>thank god we traded (thing that ruins what monhun is about) for (different thing that ruins what monhun is about)
>>739002609Memeshit that should have never left 2nd gen, same with Hunting Horn
>>739010510>MH is about anime bullshit in nondescript flat arenas
I only played like 5 hours of MonHun (World to be specific) I used a gun and it felt like cheating since I just stayed far away and completely ignored all the monsters' attacks
>>739010578>gets one shotVery cool
Fighting teostra and lunastra with gunlance is my final boss of MH
>>739010578That's why gunners have half the defense of melee weapons. If you didn't ignore the attacks, you'd die immediately.
>>739010578Before World, guns rooted you in place as you fired and had stiff aiming.After World, guns are CoD.
>>739013682>>739012975>>739012350What weapon type should I use so no one can tell me I didn't beat the game once I get around to playing it?
>>739013725Greatsword
I didn't play Wilds but what weapons feel better or worse than in MH World?
>>739012975I played HBG in release Sunbreak and had a way easier time when I switched to melee, seriously getting one tapped is so annoying.But also guns just aren’t fun, went to IG and just played that too bad it’s clunky as fuck in Wilds. But using different weapons in different games doesn’t bug me so eh
>>739010307Forgot to mention this, I'm trans
>>739013725>What weapon type should I use so no one can tell me I didn't beat the gameWho gives a shit? Just play whichever is the most fun.
>>739007057average back blast chud
>>739013863There are zero weapons that play better in World than Wilds except maybe IG which has obnoxious controls (I heard they might have fixed that not sure though). Although Greatsword is a lot more aggressive in Wilds so that could be a change I can see people not liking
>>739013938>Who gives a shit?/v/>>739013845Isn't that incredibly easy with the grappling hook
>>739013970Hammer in World is infinitely more fun than Wilds
>>739013984Yes but some people are so autistic that they would only use one weapon for the entire series. That's the Greatsword. If anything, MAYBE Sword & Shield, but those are the people that would really judge you. You could be a Hammerchad though and not think about nothin'
>>739014014Idk. The Hammer itself is more fun, but the monsters in Wilds just can't keep up. Did I ask for two endless combos that chain into each other with offsets in between? No. Would I suggest they remove it? No. Make the monsters better, dont punish me.
>>739013863I love the Sword & Shield in Wilds. It's perfect.
>>739002609Quit being a homosexual and just play Lance
>>739013863When it comes to core movesets Wilds simply has more stuff, everything about the Clutch Claw is gone though so certain weapons do feel pretty different rather than just "better", think GL or IG, you can no longer attach an exploding wyvern stake to mons and you can no longer dive grapple, Hammer can no longer sanic spin into shit, HH doesn't have the spin2win etc. but of course you get something new in return.For the most part Wilds is largely World movesets with some Risebreak additions or tweaks, certain weapons like GL got drastically remixed however and some others like S&S got some completely new gimmicks for their core gameplay that make them feel rather fresh.If you ask me it's a straight upgrade for the most part, I don't particularly miss most of World's movesets when it comes to Wilds as much as I do miss some specific claw related moves such as again, HH's spin2win.
>>739006236>silverwind mixed set with aerial gunlanceGU doesn't get any better than that
>>739013970>There are zero weapons that play better in World than Wildslongsword, swaxe, cb
Hai. I use greatsword. Am I welcome here? UwU
>>739015079Only part of World CB that's better is Savage Axe.
sickens me that gunlance shitters dont use critical eye/wex for normal/wide
>>739014385easy mode weapon
>>739002609>No dlc on sightIts over normiebros...
>>739015228sword mode is a lot better then in wilds and you can actually use it for anything besides building phials, and you can saed whenever you want, and guard points are actually worth going for unlike in wilds where SNS can just lol perfect guard everything and cancel into infinite iframe sliding move mid combo so the previous niche guard points had is gone and you only use it because the game fucking locks moves behind doing them now
>>739015294critcuck envy is real it seems
Has the community come to accept World was actually incredibly solid and a lot of fun? The amount of vitriol that game received on here at launch was totally disproportionate.
>>739016061it was always just 3ds babs coping
>>739015913>sword mode is a lot better then in wilds and you can actually use it for anything besides building phialsIt's the same exact moveset but slower, with lower phial damage and without the gap closer that is the new focus attack that can also be used directly from axe mode.>guard points are actually worth going forNot really because guard points in World are literally the same thing but worse due to lack of perfect block, power clash and less followups.
Only really ever enjoyed playing Greatsword, Switch Axe and Charge Blade
>>739013863There are zero weapons that play better in Wilds than they did in World
>>739017029>Gunlance>Lance>HH>Hammer>SnS>dunno about the other ones cause i don't play themplenty of weapons are much better than in World. i know it's your first MH game, but take the rose-tinted glasses off
>>739007057>ayre
>>739002609I unironically like GU Gunlance (Striker) it's like a normal Lance but with something extra to manage, feels pretty good for my brainAA Flare is also sick as hell
>>739002609This might be my next option of the weapon I'll main through the entire game for the next MH game unless they introduce a new weapon type (my other remaining options are lance, HH and bow).
>>739002609If I played Wilds I probably would've mained it in that game, I quite liked the new stuff. otherwise GL has always been not really my thing, I've played the weapon in basically every MH game I've played that has it, and the only time I really liked the weapon was in Iceborne. attaching a thing you could detonate with shelling was fun. only other game where I played GL a bunch was base Generations on 3DS, and boy did they fuck that version of the weapon up.
>>739008210the most stationary nargacuga to ever do it
What's the best parryslop weapon?
>>739018126GL is pretty fun in Wilds, the drill is amazing and there's plenty of possible combo routes that combine shelling and slap lance into one, not to mention Wyvernfire is actually really good too for a change.
>>739003297This. >>739003297 It's mostly crap. Even in GU where it was the most flashy.World made it braindead boring with Charged Shell spam.Rise made it fun with silkbind skills and the swith skills.Wilds made it a real weapon for the most part, but it's less fun than Rise and has more recovery and commitment than GS.
>>739018394yeah I liked it in the beta, but I've been growing dissatisfied with MH since World and me never finishing Sunbreak and playing the Wilds beta made me realize it's just not for me anymore. shame but it is what it is
When my housekeeper’s handler has introduced me to wyvernstakes, what is she gonna say? She’s not gonna say ‘My handler made a mistake’ because her handler never makes a mistake.’ So therefore it is okay. I can use wyvernstakes around her, I can use wyvernstakes in my house. First of all, because her handler introduced me to wyvernstake blast, and second of all because I am a Fanged Wyvern. I’m tempered. I don’t take no sh*t from anyone. I use my wyvernstake anywhere I want. I don’t have to find a campsite like you. HA HA…
>>739008210based widechad
>>739002609I like it when each shell type has a different combat loop
>>739004953>>739005157Based SB-GL enjoyers. Hate what they did to it in Wilds, its somehow became even more brainless to play than LS.
the best thing 5th gen did was throw old gl in the trash and effectively create a new weapon
>>739019496sunbreak gunlance is great because you have the crazy blast dash fullburst style, as well as the stationary guard reload shelling style, which are both super fun
>>739019772Sunbreak was definitely the most solid iteration of GL, but goddammit they were so close to a good iteration in generations. All they had to do was not punish us for choosing the weapon
>>739019939they fixed that in GU actually, it was only vanilla G where you needed to be in red heat for normal damage.
I like that in Rise/Sunbreak, you guard while charging Wyvern's Fire.
>>739019998Welp time to replay GU
>>739020140I'm struggling to complete that Hub quest where you're up against a Rajang and a Brachydios with Valor Gunlance.
>>739020298high rank or g rank?
>>739020398High Rank.
>>739020492well hopefully you're already running artillery expert + felyne bombardier so best advice I can give you is to use wide if you aren't already as gu brachy is a fuckign nigger that never stops moving so gettin slams in is borderline impossiblealso look up what quests you need to unlock the guardian armor setsit's by far the best gl armor and there's a g rank version that basically mandatory in endgame mixed sets
>>739020697I haven't tried a Wide Gunlance yet. I'll keep that in mind in my next attempt, thanks.
>>739002609Found it boring back in FU all the way to Rise, which made it one of the most fun weapons ever. Then Wilds dialed it back a bit while keeping it fun, though I still miss the blast dash.
>>739002609Clunky piece of shit in every single Monster HunterAlso tends to be the most dogshit weapon out of them all in almost every Monster HunterOnly Hunting Horn can compare in gayness.
>>739013970>I heard they might have fixed that not sure thoughThe only thing that was fixed is you don't have to hold down the attack buttons to perform the gay tornado move. Now it's just a sequential button press. What's still wrong with insect glaive is that it's now harder to get extracts than ever and it's a resource to expend on the gay tornado. Removing the kinsect spiker from sun break was a mistake the helicopter needed to fucking go because the whole issue with insect glaive being a low damage weapon is because positioning in the air takes time and the helicopter take eons. Kinsect spiker was quick and allowed you to target weak spots. Sunbreak insect glaive was so good I'm sure the world team was jealous.
>>739024485You can cancel the helicopter into a dive at any point during active frames and the added Kinsect copter on Focus mode racks up splash damage quite easily on large mons, it's real good especially against Los who refuses to stay on the ground.The only time I felt it was bad was against Steve because he's on crack in Wilds and doesn't stay in one place long enough for midair IG.
>>739002609Bleh until Rise.Amazing in Rise.Strong, but fucking boring, in Wilds.
