[@azurededalus2868]

Love that I know exactly what your referencing

[@tendermoisturized4199]

MH team frightened by gunlance's full potential, that's why they haven't actually buffed it since its inception without introducing a nerf simultaneously meanwhile the longsword is allowed to be literally god.

[@TaqSoto]

I have to say, having recently picked up the weapon, the gunlance has sooooo much potential. Like why does gunlance not have elemental shells? That seems like a no brainer since every other weapon with an ammo mechanic has elemental versions. It's just so disappointing. Gunlance is super fun to play but it sucks to see it struggle while long sword just gets to do everything.

[@navi8801]

@@TaqSoto that actually sounds like an amazing idea, giving the option to attach an elemental barrel to a gunlance like you can attach a shield or barrel to a HBG. The only reason why they probably haven't done it is because of the regular lance, there wouldn't be much reason for lance to exist unless they were to overhaul it like they did with hunting horn

[@TaqSoto]

@@navi8801 I don't think giving the gunlance elemental shells would make lance any less appealing. Lance and gunlance have two completely different weapon designs. Lance is more about blocking and countering while gunlance is, or should be, about shelling. If I want to poke stuff I'll play regular lance. The explosive capabilities is what draws in the gunlance users. I think they should lean into it way more. Have more than one armor skill that increases shelling damage. Give elemental shells and status shells. Maybe even more types of shelling. Completely drop shelling levels, or at least have more weapons with max shelling. It's the worst when you get to end game and 80% of your tree is trash cuz the shelling is lvl is low. Even with this update the chameleos gunlance is the dumbest thing ever. Why would you even bother making an endgame gunlance with shelling lvl 3? Shelling is the main feature of the weapon. I just don't get the thought process.

[@hakimiamir6538]

@@TaqSoto Because slaplance exist and i hate it. If you just want the big chonky raw damage without shelling just grab a great sword you heathen!

[@TaqSoto]

@@hakimiamir6538 Slaplance is so stupid, but it'll never die cuz raw will always get better throughout the game while shelling always has a cap. Until they make it so shelling can scale with raw then slaplance will always rear it's ugly head.

[@DS_DoggerX]

I'm a fan of weapons that shatter their own existent cores when they attack. Seeing steam fly off after a Switch Axe amped spin, seeing the Gunlance overheat and require a heat vent in order not to break itself is fantastic. It's what makes me love MH, and what makes me love games like bloodborne. This is peak over the top fantasy design.

[@TaqSoto]

Omg this speaks to me so much. It's such a small thing but seeing the swax kinda open up to let the steam out and hearing the sound it makes after a condensed discharge is so fckn cool.

[@kumatorahaltmanndreemurr]

Ah Gunlance. The Weapon Capcom refuses to make not shit

[@bloodbane93]

It blows me away. They always keep making more mechanics for Gunlancers to keep track of like the heat gauge, Wyrmstake Blast, and now Ground splitters. It’s like they want it to be a complicated weapon but, unlike charge blade, the return for playing into these mechanics is average DPS that Bow can get by mashing A.

[@TaqSoto]

@@bloodbane93 They refuse to give gunlance the slightest boost to make it on par with everything else, all while LS just gets better and better every Gen and gets to do everything. It's astounding really. The weapon is extremely fun to play, but it would be nice to at the same time not be bottom tier.

[@Gwyn94]

Gunlance really suffers in rise from a lack of scaling options. Shells dont scale off anything but artillery, and I remember reading that dango bombardier is bugged and doesnt actually give gunlance the buff it's supposed to. Capcom either needs to increase the boost from artillery or let shells scale from raw, otherwise gunlance is gonna get brutalized by the inevitable power creep that will come with G rank

Bazel set with the Almudron GL, I managed to get a Talisman with 2 levels of Evade Extender, the Master Mounter skill, and a 2nd and 1st level Deco slots. I farmed the shit of Almudron. Between his GL and the materials I needed for the Guard Decos among a few other pieces of gear, I never want to see him again (Even though he's one of my favorite Rise monsters). I also slotted in a Diversion Deco for multiplayer and I think it's what saved my group against Chameleos. We first tried that monster but yeeted both carts in the first 3 minutes of the fight. But since I have Guard Up and Guard plus Diversion, I kept it focused on me like 80% of that fight.

Quick note about the Auto-guard Gunlance bug in MHP3, it wasn't just the quick reload animation that gets auto guard, the recoil animation of all shelling outside of Wyvern's Fire also gives you auto-guard. So basically spamming quick reload and shelling, you can keeping attacking while blocking all attacks in a braindead spam style, making all monster fights extremely trivial.

The only things i'd like to see back are Anti-Air Flare and a good rework of rapid valor shelling from GU, as the most different style of gunlancing to exist.

All while long sword is out there foresight slashing through everything. That's some straight up bullshit.

[@unfrogettable9495]

I find it weird you said gunlance focused on cutting damage instead of thrusting because the lance and most of the blademaster weapons have their damage classified as Severing in every game.

[@MildlyOCD]

I'm like a week late (thanks KZbin for notifying me), but thank you for doing this. The big nut of weapons deserves more attention.

[@MildlyOCD]

One good rule of thumb for this is that going from G & GU to World, they swapped some of the properties of shells of Long & Wide. This can be noted because the Raging Brachy gunlance (aka THE Gunlance) had long shells in GU but got Wide shells in World. Specifically, Long shells used to benefit more from its Wyvern Fire while Wide benefits from charges. These 2 things swapped in World. Now, with changes to the Wyrmstake in Rise, it now makes it to where hanging out on certain spots for the monster is more advantageous. Long Wyrmstakes do a bunch of baby, cutting attacks followed be a mediocre explosion, but because of the amount of cuts, it's great for camping out on the tail. Due to the Stun, Wide shell is better for face; normal is a big of a middle ground that can be for either, but I find that it's better for body shots. Or, you could do when I do, & slap on full Tobi-Kadachi gear, grab that Narga gunlance with Master Riding Ramp-up, & just fly around the monster mounting more often than the Glaive would even dream of doing.

[@Shadowslash1]

Only thing they need to add is a ability to put the GL under your armor and blow up something behind you besides blast dash. That way we can have the monster blowing up behind us effect, 2nd only to the walking away from an explosion in slow motion. Nothing like a good boom from an explosion stick =D

[@StartouchArts]

Fun fact: The Wirebug Whisperer skill, combined with aerial-use Hail Cutter (Hail Cutter from Blast Dash) allows you to use Wyvernfire roughly every 15 seconds if you have 3 Wirebugs.

[@justsomejojo]

Man, I always played around a little with GL and then completely fell in love with it in World, so everytime I hear about the nerf-buffs (buff-nerfs?) my heart weeps a little. Of all the weird things, I appreciated the idea of the heat gauge the most. Just the idea. Because, much like how Switch Axe tried really hard to link its two halves (and imo managed to do it in Rise), the heat gauge felt like a genuine effort to combine the use of poke and shell. Bringing with it a completely unnecessary nerf was unfortunate to say the least and the visual design of the gauge made it superhard to manage. Would it have hurt to make it a scale with actual units? Overall I love the GL, but I have to try hard to not look too closely, because the way Capcom "buffs" the weapon is infuriating. My biggest pet peeve is how Hailcutter doesn't even fully reset Wyvernfire, but leaves the gauge with juuuuust a little sliver, making the move even worse than it already is with way too much windup and no armor whatsoever. Oh, and if you get hit during ANY of it, guess what? No cooldown reduction for moi. I still love the weapon a lot though. Nothing beats having explosions available at all times.

[@deviaan]

Conceptually the heat gage was a great idea because it tied the shelling and melee modes of the GL together. It encouraged you to mix them to get the most damage. I also liked over heating because it punished you for being sloppy. However, the whole thing was implemented as a nerf which kind of soured the whole thing. I hope they bring back the heat gage with better tuned numbers.

[@ematic0054]

What type of fucking weed are you smoking?? That shit was fucking ass

[@ribbrana]

I know I'm extremely late to your comment but I fully agree. managing the gauge itself wasn't too tough, the problem was strictly due to numbers. I'd be happy to see heat gauge come back as a buff in Wilds, ideally with Dragon's Breath in some form

In this game the gunlance meta was valor fullbursting Other than that, you were spot on with the explanations, though maybe a veteran could correct me since I haven't played anything bellow 3U.

I swear if they can just give us back that explosion stake in Rise it would be the best thing ever, me and my friend would just double team with gunlance in World and it was so much fun that it's now my main weapon taking over from Charge Blade

I was at the edge of my seat constantly throughout this video watching you go up against that (what I can only assume to be) Apex Khezu

Finally, my favourite weapon, the long gunblade Im sorry rad dude, my actual favourite weapon is the gunlance
