[@lisaselvaggi643]

Thanks

[@bladeofbattosai]

Give this man a thumbs up!

[@leroyreliford9163]

very helpful for watching multiple times lol

[@notgreg1943]

Thank u ur a good man

[@JJ-io2zt]

you say we shouldn't use level zero strikes but my dad playing MH2 only uses greatsword and he made it to G-rank without even knowing there was a level 3 charge.

[@gaijinhunter]

Awesome ;)

[@Rachara_Takuzuumu]

+gaijin hunter can we get a dual blade tutorial

[@SwordmasterSeph]

+Jason Liu You can get to G rank with kicking monsters to death, doesn't mean you should, your dad's a noob.

[@Rachara_Takuzuumu]

Sinister Seph dude, insulting peoples parents is not cool. Be nice

[@raythethirdglint5638]

+Merrroco technically,his dad must be an old-type player (plays the really older version)

[@RamblyngRobyn]

While it's true that you end up sheathing a lot with the Greatsword, a common thought process I'm tired of seeing is people thinking that charging hits and sheathing is the *only way* to play Greatsword. The way you can weave in and out of attacks with evades makes the Greatsword a strong and surprisingly mobile weapon for up close and personal fights with monsters.

[@tijmenvanderree487]

+The Tree's Apprentice Hello mr. Tree.

[@JustCozItsMe]

+The Tree's Apprentice Yes, GS can be as in the monsters face as SA. Throw on atleast evade2 and the ever present focus skills and you can bob and weave with a surprising amount of charges if you recognize the monsters patterns well enough. I like to GS brachy.

[@ShadoryKaine]

there's also the fact that charging the GS is a much faster animation when running to unsheathe rather than after it's sheathed it will swing the GS around, to hunter's shoulder then begin charge...

[@theaagorto6920]

What game is that

[@-shiroyasha-8009]

Just use a damn nargacuga set with evade buffs and you'll be gine

[@joolzc]

have I been overcharging my gs the whole time?

[@TheManOfIdeas]

Yep

[@Ethan-ib5hk]

LOOOOOOOL

[@Igorxpo]

i know how it feels...

[@Bryanneo1]

+Igor silva Did the same thing playing the series for the first time in Tri too.

[@supertrace666]

i played the entirety of mh3 and 3g undercharging my GS, i thought u started on lvl1 and lvl 2 was 3. felt awful when i realized it.

[@ccharleh]

I always come back to watch this to relearn and gain experience. I still play this! Thanks a bunch MH Sensei Gaijin Hunter for the informative lessons 🙂

[@albertxlr8467]

Haha, same here

[@TNP3xter]

Nice guide Gaijin! Though a couple of things about Aerial Style GS that were not included in the video: 1. The Super Swipe does not disappear in the Normal Jump Attack. Just press A after the jump attack and you'll perform the Swipe depending on the level of your Jump attack which leads to... 2. The Normal Jump Attack can be charged in the Aerial Style. Just Hold X during the Jump Attack. Do bear in mind though that getting a level three charge is hard since most of the terrain to jump off from is too low. 3. Lastly, a tip for killing sleeping monsters. Place a large barrel bomb and jump from it and start your Aerial Lvl 3 charge. The Aerial dodge wakes the monster up and negates your opportunity to deal a lot of damage. If you do not have bombs, then press start and press X to ping your palicos. This orders them to stand near a monster allowing you to jump off from them instead and perform a lvl 3 aerial charge. Or you could just Brimstone. LUL Hope this helps Aerial GS players out there :)

[@OhNoMelons]

The art styles are going to make this game so damn good

[@RaveyTeamLarge]

Thanks for doing these excellent videos. This is my first Monster Hunter and I had no idea there were any of these great moves. The start of the video where you said about someone just trying out the greatsword and pressing x, then a and thinking "hmm this is slow and clunky" - that was me.

[@acousticcrap]

Thanks for talking in your guides Gaijin, it's way better than just text. Makes the video more enjoyable. Cheers!

[@Sajin_71]

Aerial Style's Jumping Draw attack...thanks Smash Bros, now all I can hear when I see that is "BACK SLASH BACK SLASH BACK SLASH".

[@Bryanneo1]

+Sajin Shasaya This is the Sedition's power!

[@maxono1465]

gonna so name my guy monado boy lool

[@Pachiku93]

+Sajin Shasaya you're really felling it, aren't you?

[@DarkMaestro88]

The question remains though. Are you really feeling it?!?

[@RespawningJesus]

BACK SCRATCH

[@vermillionfox4338]

U provide such good information to us veterans and a new gen of MH addicts here in the west. thx to info videos and tutorials like your ones all of us get better at monster hunter. wanna say:Keep up the good work!

[@miguibeso]

thank you very much for this gaijin ^^ i dont comment often but i really appreciate your work. Keep it up!

[@snivy613]

It's so beautiful!!!! I can't wait for generations to come out!!!

[@bobjones4469]

Striker: The Super Swipe was what made the GS absolutely OP in 4U. The damage potential, burst, and ease of use made the weapon ridiculous. I dunno how Striker style would make up for it unless Brimstone Charge is really low CD. Low CD Inner Beast would help too since this seems to return to a pure hit-and-run style. Aerial: This seems like it has the highest damage potential. Not only does it allow for a more aggressive charging game-play (since you're less likely to get hit in the air) but the charge seems A LOT faster. You can also Super Swipe right from the first charge attack, meaning the amount of Charge > Super Swipe you can do in a given time should be much higher than the other styles. Also, it seems like the charging time is linked to your airborne time, meaning that Focus might do nothing, freeing up an Armor Skill slot. The downside is that it seems like it would be hard to aim for weak-points, which is suppose to be one of the GS's bread and butter. Adept: The fact that you have to do an evade in order to do the Super Charge seems like it might really limit the damage potential. I can see how it might work though.

[@sirmuz]

The aerial charge's motion values are lowered to compensate for the faster charge times. Not sure how much that will affect overall damage output.

[@deandrek4057]

Aerial GS is a spam show but an exciting one. Play long and the fight itself becomes a show rather than spam. The Aerial jump is foremost a dodge. So each aerial fight is more about countering than just lucky jump mounting. It is possible as well to control wear the slash lands with some accuracy. I destroy alastros using this style especially.

[@jordanwilliam3207]

Sirmuz00 On top of that, Aerial GS is solid for Elemental GS.

[@blacknekoblacksmith6721]

For adept/bushido style, the fast strong charge is actually ridiculously powerful by experience, since the usual flinch it causes often guarantees to link with the super swipe for great damage.

[@edwardthetree8308]

+blackneko blacksmith ikr... I personally also use ground slash as my hunter art, and if I flinch the monster with the charge hit or side swipe, the side swipe can go instantly into ground slash, and nothing beats the satisfaction from landing every hit in that combo... upward strike, lv 3 charge slam, side swipe, ground slash, then the shockwave... glorious.

[@heinrohenderson7609]

You dont have to pull back on the circle pad for super charge... you can hold the circle pad forward too, thats how i do it, because then you can aim it

[@jericodawsonmarcos7529]

Heinro Henderson true

[@TheMystenigma]

...Sytle. Heh. You misspelt it not once, but FOUR times, and all on a single screen, lol. Very informative though, I just got the Gen demo from the E3 Humble Bundle, and I have no idea what weapon or style to go. I'm sure I'll figure it out, though. Keep up the good work!

[@Scylaxius]

You're videos are super informative! I was playing online and one of the random people I was playing with recommended your stuff. So I looked it up and now I'm learning so much! Each tutorial has inspired me to use each weapon! Keep up the good work. o/

[@TheBeardedFrogSage]

I've always been fond of the GS. The charge attacks were cool and the super swipe really felt like it had some weight and power behind it. It was just so satisfying to follow up a level 3 with it! And then when Aerial came out I was in heaven. Bouncing off the monster, bringing the level 3 down and then super swiping it just has always felt so completely satisfying. I felt as though I was really doing the damage that a greatsword should do! Something else I loved was that you could infinitely chain the normal attacks, and I was a little surprised you didn't demonstrate that. High slash, low slash, high slash, low slash, ad infinitum. A great way to just unload on a beast and the damage adds up quickly! Anyway, great tutorial, Gaijin Hunter!

[@Chaosrain112]

Can we cut Velociprey in half with an Inner Beast-buffed Brimstone Charge? I'd like that. A lot. Or, you know, just deleting 3/4ths of a monster's health bar. That's cool too.

[@RHMx100]

we need this *_*

[@JoachimVampire]

just imagije that while sleep bombing.... pffff!!!! behold our ovewhelming power!!!

[@InsomniacMatt]

+Joachim Von Grimorium if randoms online actually know to not attack the monster when it's been put to sleep

[@JoachimVampire]

+InsomniacMatt thats why you play with friends or look for mojster hunter groups on fb, for example xD

[@jordanwilliam3207]

Velociprey "mutilate" glitch has been removed since 4U, so no...

[@ikoyamamoto4217]

This is the first MH game I've played long enough to get to high rank, and I just got there and hit a major wall. But you quickly pointed out that I was doing about everything wrong. Thanks for the help.

[@GrassMeaney]

Your content just gets better and better

[@Firepotato11]

I love the detail you put into these guides, Gaijin. Thank you so much for these, they'll definitely help me choose my starting style and weapon! Either this, or I'll just test out everything. ;)

[@TheHatapon]

You did realize that you wrote Guild Sytle,Striker Sytle,Aerial Sytle and adept Sytle did you? 12:40 Sytle XD

[@gaijinhunter]

+TheHatapon a very in your face misspelling is pretty much branding at this point :o lol

[@Urohan]

+TheHatapon Man, i didn't saw it !... I didn't even saw it in your comment ! I needed 5 min of concentration for see it !

[@TheHatapon]

+gillesbdtk XD Good Job

[@TheHatapon]

+gaijin hunter jeah XD just wanted to point that out because it seemed a bit too "in your face" XD otherwise great video as always ^-^

[@pippolopo5740]

italy???! mhx

[@BowandSvent]

I still can't believe they chose to call it the "Adept Style." Fuck that, Bushido sounds 10x cooler. On top of that, we're not just some "Adept" hunters, we're god damn masters. We've slain every monster to fuckin date, and stylishly too.

[@onlyicedgarrett7791]

And don't forget disrespect fully

[@NM-br1rb]

Seriously. They could have atleast changed it to Evade Style. What does Adept Style even mean?!

[@Robstar_]

For me it sound very strange but it has a reason because one of the famouse rappers in germany is called bushido haha

[@MrAgentIncognito]

+Brian Metcalf What does Adept style mean? It means to be good at some task. They're actually complimenting hunters that use this style.

[@Rajsingh-dq4zm]

but there are some japan exclusive monsters

[@NeverenCH]

Aaaah GS. My main Weapon in MH on PS2 when all you could do was just whack away at the Monsters, no charge or anything. Good times.

[@MMD1591]

+NeverenCH didn't play any MH game since the PS2, even though it's one of my favorite titles. Still waiting for a console version..

[@OpXarxa]

+MMD you do know MH3U is on the wiiU, right?

[@MMD1591]

A real console.

[@NeverenCH]

+MMD I just took the risk and bought a 3DS when the N3DS came out, one of the better decisions i have made. If you enjoy MH its a well worth investment.

[@MMD1591]

I like to play with a controller, and the screen is to small for my taste. But, that's just me.

[@hubhikarilives]

Thank you! Guides like this for Frontier would be god tier

[@Zaurthur]

have you ever considered adding a "good armor skills" section?

[@improvcomedy14]

In the video he mentions the skills Focus, Crit Draw and Fast sheathe. And he usually does this for all the weapons, recommending certain skills. Isn't that enough?

[@Zaurthur]

+improvcomedy14 He did in this video but I'm not sure he did in any other video. Just thought a subheading would be good.

[@WildBassfly]

and this is the level 2 and here's the level 3 here's the level 1 and this is the level 2 and this is the level 3 this is the level 1 and here's the level 2 and here is the level 3 and this is the level 1 and here is the level 2

[@sakurasam420]

I love these games so much omg. Great sword is my favorite so to know I've now been given so many different options is amazing.

[@TheWolfboyalex]

Liking all the videos so far, I'm probably going to carry on using Dual Blades as my main, but it's nice to see what the other weapons can do, Tempted to focus on adept style, but I want to see how they work with aerial first.

[@DJJazyWormJeff]

I will never use the Great Sword just because it's too slow, but it's nice to see how badly I was using it when I tried, thanks for demonstrating what to do! Might give it a go

[@nhatdangminh4607]

Guild Style: 0:42 Striker Style: 7:02 Aerial Style: 7:32 Adept Style: 8:53 .................................. Hunter Art: Inner Beast: 10:04 Ground Wave: 10:45 Brimstone Charge: 11:10 Final Thoughts: 11:54

[@x0Vinny0x]

The whole point of the greatsword is to get crit draw and do the basic charge slash. If you do all this kicking and slapping, you'll crit on that instead of the important strike. You do more damage in less time, and get out before getting comboed.

[@TheDarkSpade1]

Love the tutorials now that they're more relevant! I used watch them to bide my sadness at the possibility of never getting the game! Nevertheless, great work,GH!

[@DepressoSquad]

Been waiting for this, awesome! Great video thanks :D

[@Pachiku93]

You can also combo a Normal Charge after a Wide Slash Quick note: If it get's risky to charge to level 3 don't hesitate to release at level 1 or 2, with enough time to release the charge and roll away. *He/she who rolls away in time lives to strike again* . Only pros can predict the monster to set-up level 3 charges all the time without the monster being downed or something. There's no shame on spamming Draw Attack until you have a save and big enough opening. Also, consider that, unlike with the Draw Attack, after releasing a charge there's a very short animation lock (shorter than after a Super Swipe) where you can't roll away. That's way the Draw Attack will always be safer.

[@Blacknight8850]

Hang on, does that Greatsword you're using have a hinge in the middle of the blade? One that folds *backwards, **_away_* from whatever you're hitting? That would just fold shut again when you hit anything! I mean, I've 'mained' GS for a long time but most if not all of the ones I've ever used were just slung onto your back when not in use. Also I assumed the kick was at least partly for knocking allies out of Snow/Mud/Web balls & Sleep etc? I'll have to experiment further with that...

[@Rat_the_Renegade]

+Fors Clavigera It would not fold back when you hit something. Think ot would be like a gunlance and that the hinge locks when its being swung.

[@SolBadguy777]

gaijin your voice has really improved compared to your earlier videos. You speak with a lot more confidence and energy. It's really nice to hear or see in my oppinion.

[@RedWurm]

+SolBadguy777 I was just thinking that, and a really slick introduction on this video too.

[@SolBadguy777]

+RedWurm yeah really. It's great to see this kind of progression in the videos.

[@exleus]

Thanks for the tutorials, they're all excellent. Could you leave the motion values on screen for a second or so longer though? I miss them while looking at the animations and have to backup the video a couple seconds.

[@maxxyize]

i just started playing this game and was wondering what would be the best armor for great sword user in low rank??? and best for high rank if anybody can answer it would be greatly appreciated

[@HB-me7hx]

GH says to pull back on the circle pad for the super charge, you don't have to do this. Just holding forward + A will do the super charge after the side slap.

[@captaint.tearex9279]

11:42 EPIC WHIFF **Goat scream**

[@RognarB]

Aerial might look repetitive but its actually a very fast way to do decent damage and since you,re mid air for most of it odds are you're going to be able to land hits you wouldnt otherwise. Been using it with the snowlord lagombi set and the damage is quite serious, not to mention the mounting power you also get out of it.

[@mosswine5417]

that mhfu track going on in the background kinda brings back memories. Almost brought a tear to mah eye.

[@Gievfepix]

Aerial and Adept look like SO much fun. I can't wait.

[@jediyoshi64]

The added styles are really helping round out the number of weapons I want to use. In MH4U I could only really make the Insect Glaive work, and more recently the Bow. But damn, that Aerial Greatsword looks like exactly what I want out of a weapon.

[@Akidryt]

well it is quite funny having 4 Aerial GS user......or 4 aerial IG slingshotter xD

[@kikasuru3826]

You can do the Strong Charge by holding any direction on the circle pad, not just back.

[@improvcomedy14]

Comprehensive as always, great work Gaijin

[@TheRandombarguy]

I haven't had a 3DS to try out MHX but i'm getting one this weekend so i'm brushing up on my old weapons

[@V1rsanity]

I love Greatsword! This is my favorite weapon of choice. Great tutorial. Btw I already start my journey on MHGen. Happy Hunting everyone! :)

[@thezaar8950]

+gaijin hunter When I first played mh I misjudged the greatsword due to its general lack of speed and mobility. I began going to moga woods to experiment with it and of course the great jaggi was my guinea pig. I learned the two key factors which by my experience were the draw attack and the greatsword's unlimited combo possibilities. I normally only used charged slashes on downed/sleeping/stunned/paralyzed monsters or certain Elder dragons such as Ceadeus or Jhen Mohran. The greatsword since I played MHTri has been my go-to weapon. My brother prefers hammers. He's also a skilled gunner. Me and bowguns... well... let's just say that after several ruined rathalos hunts we didn't exactly see eye to... barrel. The bow however would be great for me since it's a bit more blademaster friendly. BTW was the ML001: Baltzenger foreshadowing the gunlance?

[@WalrusJones185]

The weapon that needs a tutorial the most given the changes is probably the bow.

[@Frodudus]

*Gunlance

[@drunkenfist3084]

shotgun stick, seriously it's more complex now the type of shot,hunter style,hunting arts and the mechanics of the heat gauge

[@Laoruperteen18]

you are kidding right? the bow hardly had anything changed and it only has 3 attacks, charged attack, and the fact each bow has power shot and arc shot....and thats it. i heard something about heavy shot types, but shot types just orient what distance you shoot your bow from the monster.

[@F1stcmgetsum]

It's so confusing to learn from the hunters notes

[@JoshuaKayle]

I'm curious if, in adept style, the strong charge gains benefit from 'focus'. Speaking of focus, does it affect Brimestone Charge? Thanks for the fantastic videos. Keep up the wicked work.

[@Forkontheleft]

how does the charge level affect element damage?

[@CaptainFalcon07]

I was stuck on the double hellblade glavenus quest, and I usually use guild great sword but that wasn't working, so after a few days of screaming and spitting on my 3ds I watched the video you made about using adept against him, well.. I just beat it with no deaths and plenty of time to spare, so thanks, you saved my ass again

[@renutus1580]

Great Video Gajin! I absolutely love your vidoes, they're so detailed and in my eyes flawlessly presented. Out of curiosity, are you doing the tutorials in a specific order? Cause I've really wanted to see the revamps the gunlance got 😂

[@LVmySwap]

I love the fact that each GS Hunting art is Basically a power-up version of GS's Basic move input. Brimstone = X , Inner Beast = A and Ground Wave = X+A. If in future games we get more Hunter arts i'd love to see maybe a Super Kick or Super Slap! Just for Shenanigans!

[@Ethan-ib5hk]

OMG that'd be amazing! +gaijin hunter you should make a new hashtag for this!^^ XD

[@hound297]

Crit Draw > Fast Sheath / Focus. You will always be doing draw attacks so crit draw is a MUST. The other 2 are negotiable depending on the circumstances.

[@arit1784]

focus isnt replace able, i pretty much need it more than crit draw. You know it Increases the charge time by 2.5? 0.o

[@hound297]

+Carmelo Anzaldi You mean decreases. Its more about the opening. If you have the opening to charge then focus is great. But if you are hunting something that is hard to predict and is constantly moving about, you will be doing Draw attack -> roll alot more. Besides, crit draw benefits both drawing attacks and charging attack (First attack only) while focus only procs when you are charging the sword.

[@arit1784]

Idk pretty much i dont put the weapon away much. Thats why focus is more important for me

[@散步人的背包]

Thanks for these tutorial videos, helps me a lot! Ps:Hope to see the tutorial of Charge blade :)

[@makez1909]

what's up with the ending where gaijin sums up the styles? every style is written sytle.

[@KaiKrimson56]

+gaijin hunter what armor were you using that had focus, crit draw, and fast sheath? Also, because of this tutorial, I'm so gonna main the hell outta striker and bushido with the greatsword. Beware the almighty Brimstone Slash and it's epic anime awesomeness!

[@BenaSPACE]

Hey, Gaijin, when you were doing motion values for the charges 1-3 you listed them as 65*1.1, 80*1.2 and 100*1.3. Would that be the same as listing them as 71.5, 96 and 130 for each? On a side note, are you going to do another video for how damage works for MHX, or would the MH4U tutorial basically cover all the same stuff?

[@gaijinhunter]

+BenaSPACE yes for first q and no I wont do a new video it's the same

[@OkayCool1]

+gaijin hunter is it 50% dmg or 500% damage for 50 motion value?

[@Adoochi]

+Happy Player Motion Values are the percentage of your Raw that is used in damage calculation. So a MV of 50 would be the same as saying 50% of your Raw.

[@OkayCool1]

I knew all but was it % or something Else

[@porkyp1845]

even thougb monster hunter has all these styles, the game seems pretty balanced nice work

[@AegisREDflector]

I'm positive gaijin knows by now, but for anyone new, you can actually charge a LV3 chop WHILE YOU'RE RUNNING in adept style, and still do the strong one afterwards, too. You can also delay charging it if you need to run a further distance to reach the monster, and still start a charge kind of late to extend your running distance.

[@felonmelon3736]

This is the X video me mentioned that in the changes section on the XX video

[@Lutyrannus]

That was added in Generations Ultimate, and not present in the base Generations.

[@AshisogiiJizo]

I just tried out Adept Great Sword in the demo, and holy hell, it's a lot of fun. Normally I enjoy weapons that keep me agile, and my favorites are the LS, SnS, DB, Hammer, SA, CB, IG, and Bow. Thanks to Adept Great Sword, I can continue more along that same level of agility that I'd missed out on, so I'll probably use it a lot more when the main game comes out.

[@RemingtinArms]

It's the same with me, used to love SnS for the freedom of it, and now I finally get a turn in the limelight with SnS supposedly being OP in this game, but the adept GS is just too fun lol!

[@Silverryde]

I've been using LG such a long time then I got into LBG and HVB. Then when MH4U came out and introduced the Insect Glaive and the Charge Blade I used more of the Insect Glaive. Then MHGU and MGUXX I used the GS a lot then I used SA and HH as my secondary weapons. Great Sword ended up being my favorite weapons throughout the games mostly because I didn't have time I actually went back the previous games and used the great sword. My least favorite weapons are Lance, Hammer, Dual blades, and sword + shield. I still use the gunlance and bow in most occasions.

[@AceManRevived]

ground wave = Getsuga Tenshō

[@tirtafirdaus1991]

Gaijin-san, I noticed something, but it might be just my feeling/imagination. Is striker style has innate focus? Im studying GS right now and so far, still using Guild and Adept. For the normal 3 charge, it seems striker style is faster than the other styles (except aerial)......... note : even when using Black S armor set with focus, it still feels faster. So i think it stacks.

[@Ottrond]

dude you're like the bob ross of monster hunter i love you

[@gaijinhunter]

+Dronto Ottrond thank you ^^

[@xinuxph]

also I think you can also do a kick from blocking stance if you press x it will do the kick as well, unless they changed it on MHX/Generations

[@jordanwilliam3207]

You can still do that. I think he didn't show the move because it is not really neccessary as you would rarely use it.

[@kassybirdy]

Pokke Village music... so much nostalgia. My first game was MHFU. Is Pokke in MHG/X?

[@Frenchylikeshikes]

I'm falling hard into MHGU. It's actually super fun when you get to the cool monsters which can sadly take a little while.

[@xVestyc]

Can't wait for that HBG guide!

[@Koops2245]

"...what's your *sytle*-??"

[@theranger3318]

I'm still waiting for the LBG!

[@OhNoMelons]

ayyy

[@Zaurthur]

me too man

[@baoughh7831]

+Zaurthur me too!

[@OhNoMelons]

Elbery Ringwurt lol

[@faidou9954]

But seriously, I played the Demo version of this game recently, and I have to say that the Aerial Style Great Sword is fun as all hell to use! I used to think that the GS was only 2ND to LS, but with the Aerial Style, GS is pretty much on par with LS.

[@earlmaudrie5850]

Hey, can you go and edit in the localized names for the arts in the description? Just gets a little confusing to hear Inner Beast instead of Lion's Maw.

[@Focie]

Hey, Gaijin? I've checked everywhere, but can't find anything, so I'm coming to you in a last ditch effort. Your audio for Monster Hunter Generations sounds so good, but for some reason, it sounds pretty bad on my capture. Like it's too much bass with little to no treble. It means that I can barely hear anything. Do you have a capture card from Katsukity? What is your setup? EDIT: You know what? I just saw your video, and it showed everything I needed to know. Sorry about that.

[@Sasorislovery]

Can't wait to try all of these out!

[@matej3276]

Oh my god so much nostalgia from the pokke music

[@Bryanneo1]

I've always been super interested and wanted to know the inner workings of more with Brimstone Charge. Worth using that counter bonus or is it fine to use in a situation where the monster is helpless just as well? And also with Adept style for this weapon, the bonuses of adept should be something that compliments your fighting ability, not replace. Am I right? ;p

[@BiigDaddyDellta]

I love your tutorials Gaijin but where's the CB? lol I know it's probably a bit complex but I really would like to see it before I deploy.. Which is soon!

[@sean_666]

i don't understand, whenever I press x while running to do a quick unsheathe attack, most of the time it does a long drawn out attack rather than a quick one which gets me in a truck load of trouble. i just tap x, I do not hold it down whatsoever. it's like it goes for a charge attack rather than a quick unsheathe like at the beginning of this tutorial. I've been playing mh since they were out on PSP, I've never had this problem until now

[@gaijinhunter]

+Sean Zambo might be your button itself

[@DaShikuXI]

Throughout playing MH as a GS main ive had this exact problem before. At some point i figured out that holding R while doing the unsheathe attack can cause that to happen. Its not present in every MH game however. I used to think that GS just had 2 different draw attacks depending on whether you hold R or not, but ive found thats not the case. My advice is to learn to release R right before you press X (or triangle on psp). You get used to it pretty quickly and it should completely eliminate the problem.

[@sean_666]

Okay I'll give it a go, thanks for the info!

[@MrSpiderspider12]

gaijin-sempai you forgot that you can do kick not only the special button on the touch screen and by pressing R+x

[@blyatfulcommunism171]

He forgot to mention that after the Adept role, that rising slash can be charged to level 3, which then could lead to level 3 super slash, but that generally is very unsafe to do the super slash afterwards, unless the monster is in a very good spot for you to land both level 3 charges

[@SerotoninCrunch]

love the Pokke theme in the background

[@douglaschong4828]

hey gaijin, I was wondering what set you would recommend for HR GS? or what set you're using?

[@PakuTheMagnificent]

Are crit and punish draw in this game cuz I've got a decent idea for a bushido set Also, if you evade and then draw into the bushido upswing it still gets the bonus from a draw attack, right?

[@gaijinhunter]

+I have steel balls yes and you are also Correct about the draw

[@albertocerrone3518]

even the charged attack after the bushido upswing have the crit bonus?

[@imahappy946]

Lol, I read your reply before I read the name of the one you replied to... "I have steel balls and you are also correct about the draw." XD I thought, "Gaijin!! That's not like you at all!! I thought you were a nice boy!" Lol. Peace.

[@justarock9553]

will u be running on your steel balls?

[@tassocrazy]

A question on Motion Value of Strong Swipe Here you report Lv 1 52*1.1; Lv 2 60*1.2; Lv 3 80*1.3 In the old MH4U tutorial you report the value without any multiplaier Lv 1 52, Lv 2 66, Lv 3 110 So they nerfed charged lv 3 strog swipe or in MH4U you directly applied the multiplaier? Or it is not change at all?

[@BrickwallsGames]

Great guide as always!

[@greasygrooser609]

when i first started playing monster hunter in monster hunter 3 ultimate i thought holding down the great sword's charge until it let go itself was the strongest slash possible but i only learned that it was stronger whenever i made myself a deviljho great sword and it had the pulsing animation whenever the level 3 charge came into effect

[@ArsefaceTM]

Please display the inputs of the commands. I know you mention them, but visual cues are important because a person might pause the video to try a technique. Especially on the alternate command sequences.

[@Ltoften]

Im looking forward to your bow guide!

[@deviljoesama]

Hey gaijin hunter, great work, keep it up! Just wanted to add a few things: 1. You can do a kick by pressing X while guarding. 2. You can just press A (no direction needed) after a wide slash to do a strong charge. 3. You can press A after a super swipe to do a wide slash. Hope this was useful.

[@ZeaxofStarcraft]

Hey man, I want to ask you about the weapons. Why are you not using Akamtorm's weapons? Are they not the most powerful with blunt weapon skill?

[@audricgozali6424]

Hi Gaijin, I'm still kinda confused with hidden sharpness value in GS... for lvl 3 charge it says 1.3x raw hidden sharpness modifier, so is it mean that even if your weapon sharpness is green (which should be 1.05x raw), or maybe red (which should be 0.5x raw) with lvl 3 charge, the damage become just like the white sharpness modifier? Or is it counted seperately, and the hidden modifier just to determine is the weapon bounce or not (which make weapon with white sharpness is calculated 1.3x1.3x raw)?

[@TheGrunts1337]

the goat's back!

[@JimothyRoss]

how much focus do u have?! That is the fastest charging ive ever seen!

[@To_var]

Impressive as always. Thanks for sharing

[@BoneyKingOfNowhere90]

looking forward to the db tutorial!

[@HalberdierHyperion]
