MHGU: Sword and Shield Tutorial

[@BM03]

I came in here 100% certain the "changes" would be they nerfed the hell out of the oils. But instead: Chaos Oil. These tears of mine are of joy, happiness and laughter.

This is the most detailed SnS MHGU tutorial out there, you even covered the oil diff and super armor at the beginning! I always enjoy watching your video, quality stuff, thanks gaijin hunter! Btw from 16:32 when the video is from switch play, feels like my vision suddenly got better, so much more crisp and better graphics lol

[@Pascll]

I used to only use striker sns, but this video taught me that valor and adept sns are a lot more fun than that. I'm glad I fully watched this

[@AveSicarius]

@Frenzied Unicorn Productions I think that's purely due to how updated the mechanics are in World, the moving while using items and more responsive gameplay definitely make a big difference in perceived difficulty. I can't count the amount of times I've died simply to the hero flex taking far longer than I expected, or just janky controls. I die much less simply from those two improvements, the mantles do help, as does the clutch claw, but I definitely don't think the core of the game is mechanically more difficult. If anything I've had way more problems with the same monsters in World/IB than MHGU Rajang, Barioth, Nargacuga, and the majority of shared monsters I honestly found more difficult in World, I played them through at the same time. The only monster I found infinitely more difficult in MHGU was Diablos for some reason, the smaller maps combined with less responsive input made him an absolute pain in the ass. I think G-rank hypers and AT monsters are about the same difficulty in my experience. I found the Deviants/BDs about the same as end game bosses/BDs in World.

[@Zaney_]

The HP pools aren't bloated as well, like in gu and the AI is much less retarded in general along with movement improvements. GU isn't harder, it's more bs. it's artificially harder due to outdated mechanics and questionable design decisions

[@_Tzer]

@@Zaney_ yeah but sometimes the jankiness works in your favor if you know how to use it.

[@oopsiexistnow]

I never liked sns in 3U really. Dual Blades just felt like the far superior counterpart, until 4U. It might just be me but I feel like in 4U it finally came into its own.

[@scullyf2254]

The SnS, the weapon that every beginner used but got replaced by something else. And still the SnS is one of the most deadly, OILS!

[@helveticastandard7362]

Adept seems like the most sensible option for endgame, considering there are a bunch of one shot moves the super deviant monsters have. Striker looks like the "best value" pack but Adept giving me free i-frames for just rolling around the monster (which I'm very used to doing) it's a keeper.

[@wheelskelton2761]

Helvetica Standard keep in mind that with stroller you would be using absolute readiness and the spin slash. I'm new to sns but what little I've used them one of those is nearly always up. Been practicing on furious Rajang and have never felt the need for more. I'll have to try it on the g4 hyper lagia, he's meaner than most of the super deviants by a ton.

[@morganpriest7726]

Put on evasion +2 and the first half of your dodge is an adept dodge.

[@joesheridan9451]

Hey Gaijin! I just wanted to say thanks for uploading these updated guides. World was a complete blast for me, and offered a very different experience. I was a little disappointed that there was only around 100 hours of content for me personally (Which is a lot, don't get me wrong), because what was there was great. Much like what you touched upon in your other video though, I really miss the massive build projects you can do in generations, and the fact that there's so many different things to fight never once made it boring to me. Sorry for the rambling, thanks for refreshing me on one of my favourite weapons :)

You aren't. ^^ I was using it in Generations, and now I'm using it in Generations Ultimate. Dependend on the monster, I also switch to Adept here and there or try out Striker, but Aerial is the most fun I have with this weapon.

Back when I watched the original version of this video for Gen Vanilla, I certainly couldn't use the back-hop properly. Then I played World. They've rebalanced it since, but Slam Dunking in World is gonna make the SnS all the better for me in Gen Ultimate.

[@marcofunke3607]

I simply can't wait to buy this game a second time, just to understand everything. Thanks for these helping vids, so I understand my favourite weapon better! :)

[@thombias]

Same here. I played MHXX for about 210 hours and i've pretty much have seen all the game has to offer. I'm looking forward to play it again but in a language i can actually understand and read. The japanese language got onto my nerves after a while, especially when trying to create mixed armor sets and looking for talismans and decorations. I never realized how important it is being able to read and understand text after playing MHXX.

[@blancfan1]

Gotta be honest and say I agree more with Arekzz on Aerial SnS. The bread and butter combo is still just as good as any other style. Add the mounting potental, stamina oil, and a paralysis weapon and thats a lot of time of the monster doing nothing. Stamina oil makes shiygeki absolete and roundforce is not all that great which just leaves the best of the three. Apply oil, mount the monster and when its down go staright for the face and suddenly hammer finds itself without its crown.

[@HitsuruKun]

My career as MH begins in september, this year, with MHW, aways heard the Sword and Shield is "for noobs". I ignored the weapon for weeks, but when I tried...was fun as HELL!!!! Is one of my fav weapons, and now, go to GU, I will begin with Kinsect and Sword and Shield!!!

[@matilyn_rf]

Striker SnS in gen was what taught me to love the SnS enough to main it (along with HH) in world. Fun times.

[@TakeMyLunch]

i preffer aerial myself. mostly cause its so fluid, the jump comes out so fast and can be done durring a combo so you can essentially fly around the monster from safe area to safe area and oil up for that sweet ko after a mount. MMmmm soo good...

[@jingz6225]

Sword and Shield in MHGU is the best, all those greasy oil. Feelsgoodman

[@xCrazyShitx]

Amazing guide as usual. Small note I haven't seen anywhere: after an Adept Back-Step Dodge Counterslash, you can follow up immediately with the Adept Dodge Lunging Slashes (X+A), but not a Jumping Slash.

[@MarkHest1]

Thanks you, this was usefull. I have played monster hunter for over 10 years but only now testing Sword and Shield so this was helpful :)

[@Slyfincleton]

looking forward to the hunting horn tutorial, been wanting to get into it for a while and I think GU will be a good time to start

[@Pamjamelia]

Aerial style is heaps of fun with a paralysis sword. Mount the monster, spam the X attacks and charged backstep, paralyse it, get the hits in, mount again, rinse and repeat.

I’m sure you probably don’t do requests but it would really help people who are new to the switch (bought it for MHGen Ultimate) if you did a tutorial on how to transfer your save data from MHGen on the 3DS to MHGen Ultimate on the switch. I would really appreciate it because I don’t want to have to start from scratch again if I can avoid it

Also noteworthy is the extra synergy in Guild Style. If you enter SP Mode all your items get faster use times, including if you use them with your weapon drawn.

[@duskdeadman4333]

This and 4U are my faves, even above world

[@silverlyons5049]

Omg Chaos Oil [NUT]! I went back to Generations recently to get ready for GU and man I missed oils.. I don't really enjoy how SnS feels in World and it was just unfortunate.. but the way it plays, the oils, the specials feels so good in Gen/GU even though I haven't played GU yet.

[@BoJangles42]

Silver Lyons what?? No oils in World but the move set in World is FAR better for SnS. In World the charge attack goes right into either a mounting attack or a diving shield bash that can KO a monster. This is the highest DPS combo for SnS and it doesn’t exist in MHGU. And the mounting attack makes the SnS even better for mounts than IG in World.

[@silverlyons5049]

I know what the meta is for SnS in World, and I don't enjoy doing the back hop into the aerial shield smash over and over again. I like doing combos and weaving in and out quickly.. Trying that in World is kinda obsolete and the turn slash and stab moves are kinda cool but overall if you're not willing to bounce all over the monster you're not getting the most you can get in that game so everything feels different. I'll probably end up still playing both but, I stand by my preference of old school SnS over World SnS.. Just because of pure preference. There are some things I prefer in World though, or had an affinity to, like Foresight Slash and stuff but yeah. I'm not saying any is better than the other, and not bashing anyone for liking World's version more: It's interesting to watch other people doing the SnS shenanigans in World.

[@garbodude4365]

Silver Lyons I’ve gotta agree with you friend, classic SnS just feels right. Better than world? Debatable, that’s just up to one’s taste really. I’m still playing like it’s 3u half the time anyway lol

[@BoJangles42]

Silver Lyons Sorry but just because the downward bash is the meta for speedruns doesn’t mean you HAVE to spam it to enjoy using the SnS in World. The spiral slash in World makes sword combos even better. Also the double shield bash in the older games is now a triple shield bash in World which is much better since you’re only shield bashing if you’re trying to build up exhaust and stun on the monster. The new mounting and jump attacks make the SnS the best weapon in the game for mounting, bar none. And I say this with 900 quests using IG in World. The slinger makes the “use items without sheathing” even more valuable. This also includes wedge beetles and mantles. And you can now put down a shock trap and pitfall trap one after another without destroying the first one. You can now much more easily add Guard and Guard Up skills to a build and tank big attacks like Nerg’s dive bomb with your shield like a Lance if you want. You can have your preference, that’s fine. I main SnS in GenU and the oils are awesome, I wish we had those in World. But that’s honestly my only complaint about SnS in MHW.

[@0815Snickersboy]

Horrible for beginners. I tried it in my first game mh4u and always died to timeouts. It requires a really aggressive playstyle. I think the hammer or the greats word are a lot better for beginners as they reward a more conservative playstyle.

[@copyrightboy4225]

Hi, This is my first Monster Hunter game. Is this weapon the best for noob players? I say that because you dont need to put your sword away to use potions and other items. Also how effective is the shield? Can it block all attacks?

[@sunny_shinyyy]

Kind of, it’s a “jack of all trades” weapon, so it’s recommended you start with it and then pick a weapon from there, however it’s still viable for late game.

[@ToastedLater]

Paranormal Pete I guess it could be considered easiest in terms of complexity and moveset, but honestly choose whatever you think you’d like and experiment with all the different weapons. But yes the sword and shield is usually considered a noob weapon but is a very good weapon nonetheless

[@ShineTheHedgehog]

The shield is much weaker than the other shields in the game, and is I believe on par with Greatsword. You'll still block most of the damage, it's just that you'll also lose a lot of stamina; and if you don't have enough stamina to "cover the cost" you'll get hit anyway. (I THINK that's how it worked.)

[@Hellkite422]

I love the SnS and used that plus the HBG throughout Gen on the 3DS. SnS is beginner friendly but it also is fantastic late game with status SnS builds. If you have not already done it get the demo on the Switch eShop and start playing around so you can get a feel for the different weapons in a controlled environment.

[@gabrielcabral6142]

Toasted Tater The ability to use an item anytime is such a lifesaver in G-rank quests, you can save a whole team with lifepowder. However most people don't use this feature and just spam the x button in attacks, which is sad. The sns is quite difficult to master because you have to stay still while doing the most damaging combo (RX -X-X-AAA) and positioning is something that takes time to understand.

Gaijin Hunter, first you say the "bread and butter combo" is (R+X), X (THREE times), A (3 times). A little later in the video during the aerial style, you say "... The bread and butter combo of X, X, A, A, A." So which is the best/main/B&B Combo? The difference may make a difference, but I'm not sure which because of motion values (which I don't understand very well either). Any clarification would be appreciated. Thanks!

Do you think that you will make a video about the G2 urgent? Even a year later I try to squad up with high hr randoms and it almost never goes well. Most people just don't know how to fight him! I think it would be very appreciated by the community, and would get tons of views. There are already a few really (reaaally) good Reddit posts about solo and squad setups that you could show off. Like the striker SA, and Brave HBG methods.
