Appearntly shelling is shit in g rank

There's reasons to still play melee Gunlance. Its melee moveset is still different from Lance, and offers different strategies. I will copy and paste the Runners reply to another comment from 8 years ago, it explains it perfeclty "There are reasons to use GL if you are not shelling. When facing monsters such as Tigrex whose head is not high, you're going to be getting more forward stabs in than upward stabs. GL's first 2 forwards have 26% modifier compared to Lance's 23%. Another reason is the running stab. Great for closing distance and your biggest frient against wind pressure (also used for dodgin). This may not seem like much but it can completely change your tactics against stuff like diablos. The uppercut also comes out quicker ( and "lefter") than other hits and can give your better opportunities to position yourself optimally." "There's still use for them (shells) though. Chaining combos is shells' primary use in G rank and there's a couple of cases you can fire off a good Wyvern Fire. But Tigrex's openings don't allow long combos. And I tend to forget there's a gun on my lance :)."

It's dps is still inferior compared to most weapons, no matter how good you are

The low ones are a bit stronger, yes. The upstabs are significantly weaker though.

wait, I don't get it. You used it like is was just a lance the whole time. Is the shooting and MEGABLAST just a waste of time?

@@justsomeguythatwantstocry4243 Wyvern Fire decreases sharpness a lot and Tigrex is a very fast monster so it has less openings.

@@justsomeguythatwantstocry4243 Shelling and Wyvern Fire becomes almost useless in G-rank (the rank this person on the video is fighting tigrex on) which is really a shame.

I suggest you take a look at MHFU's damage formula. Shelling is not one of the best ways to trip a monster down unless the hitzone has terrible melee damage modifiers. Versus Tigrex you should not be aiming for the legs anyway. Wyvern fire's set damage falls off by G rank. It leads to big sharpness loss and if by preempt you mean stagger the monster mid charge, even if you manage to do that consistenly, WF's recoil does not allow you to meaningfully capitalise on that

@@CSplitter So,why don't you use Lance instead ?

@@ganasariokrisnadi7322 'Cause Gunlance has the running stab which has wind press resistance and covers ground fast, the uppercut which hits left well and the low stab damage modifiers are better than those of the lance.

blaze made me do this, send help

@@CSplitter I'll FedEx you some help. ETA Feb 2021. Please understand.

@@LevantineR1 i only accept help if the packaging is ripped and the contents are damaged

@@CSplitter Will getting it three weeks after it arrived at the delivery terminal be close enough?

Hey, been a while! I was challenged to do this, there's a chance I'll do another vid for Unite now that I got the recording software working.

@@CSplitter Good! I'll be waiting for the next video! Good luck man! :)

Just play the game. I'm also play on my android and i beat the whole game without using a Controller so you can do it too!
