Monster Hunter Wilds | Gunlance New Moves Guide

[@danaltamirano2546]

Shields up- sorry, wrong channel.

[@ArekkzGaming]

Iron breakers!!!!

[@LordOfAsshes]

Btw, the shieldiest weapon, as I heard (sadly can't play the beta cos of territorial restrictions), really needs some help (somehow even more now). Is it true? How's non-Gun Lance?

[@thehooman4705]

Non-Gun Lance lost its counter guard for every poke you do. Now, it's only after 3 pokes, with triangle doing triple thrust and o doing the counter guard. Imo, makes lance essentially useless, now that gl has its counter guard now with reload guard. TLDR, they made lance dogwater. Turned from a good weapon that wasnt favourable to undeniably the worst by far. Hopefully they reinstate the counter guard

[@lancechua859]

Shields up Arm breakers!

[@LordOfAsshes]

@@thehooman4705, yeah, that sounds disturbing. Though, not so long I watched one video, that explained a bit more about newer Lance (so as commenters there - thx them for accumulating power stance info), so now I'm more like "cautiously curious" rather than "fearfully disappointed". As links doesn't work in the comments, just type "You May Not Be Happy - My Lance Beta Thoughts" in the search bar, if interested. It's from Nova Bushido channel.

[@trashew]

Gun lance looks amazing. Never really given it a fair shot before. Looking forward to changing that in wilds

[@vishus85]

Gunlance main here, I can't wait!

[@ArekkzGaming]

It is epic, had so much fun using it!

[@210chillian8]

Check out the lance too, wasn't feeling the gunlance as much for whatever reason

[@OutlawWalker]

Went from swaxe to gunlance cuz of the beta

[@ReddistLine]

Soo many more moves, more combos, and, most importantly, more mobility. Somehow, they were able to make the Funlance MORE fun! :D

[@senpaipabst3480]

Gunlance is quickly becoming a favorite for me. It's amazing.

[@Violinoknight]

love it. Gunlance main all the way! Also already planned to try hunting horn as well so that's just perfect lol.

[@skyboundzoo]

I’m a HH main but looking to make gunlance my secondary!!! Hoorah

[@Kriss_941]

@@skyboundzoo I was planning to main HH, but when I tried GL in the beta I got kinda hooked

[@chironthecuddley6144]

I was planning on playing Lance in Wilds but had more fun and did way better with Gunlance. Funny thing is the Gunlance was the weapon in MHFU demo was what got me into the series, but I didn't like it very much in the main game, after 14 years I will finally main the weapon that got me into the series.

[@jaggerraimondo4423]

I was kinda sad about there not being a 15th weapon (or new weapon) announced for this title, but I think they have done a great job of really improving the feel of EVERY weapon. Now I feel like I want to pick up multiple weapons I previously wanted nothing to do with i.e., Gunlance, Dual Blades, Bow.. This is going to be GOY potential.

[@jaggerraimondo4423]

@valentineX1X I'll keep my fingers crossed 😅

[@pinecone-yt69]

Except RIP Insect Glaive

[@georgelongcoal1117]

Hear me out, have you tried it? Being able to get all the extracts at once from a wound is WILD (heh)​, and transforms the kinsect into a sort of pawn/tool... True, aerial combat missing is a pity, but let's not underestimate the new tools@@pinecone-yt69

[@Sharingon700]

I'm so glad they brought back the quick reload guard point! Valor style gunlance in MH Generations had it and it rocked

[@curts7801]

It was in rise and Sunbreak. Amazingly fun. Especially on Wide Gunlance.

[@sekhali]

Been playing since PSP and never dabbled in lances before, but absolutely loving the gunlance in Wilds.

[@madpinoy5683]

I love how Gunlance has been re-worked to be the ultimate offense-defence weapon. SO. MANY. GUARD POINTS.

[@FGoing]

Never really played the lances, but i think the gunlance will my weapon this time around

[@gravitee0]

I hate these tier list chasers lmao Never played it because what? It’s low on the “tier lists”? Just stick to LS buddy boy

[@pantaliamon7357]

Come join the Iron breakers, hunter! Also if you are serious about checking out Gunlance, go look up Rurikhan, he is hands down the most accessible GL content creator and is extremely knowledgable about everything gun lance!

[@paceproxy]

@@gravitee0 dude chill out LMAO. insane leaps in logic there for no reason. i've mained GL since 4u. but i've always hated lance for no particular reason. even in games that it was strong in. until recently, where I picked it up in world and really enjoyed it for the first time. sometimes certain playstyles aren't fun for everyone. as a longtime GL player, world gunlance wasn't really my favourite, but I'm loving its iteration in wilds. shout out to @FGoing here for broadening their horizons!

[@sc5the]

@@paceproxy nah, he’s right 😂

[@FGoing]

@@gravitee0 chill dude, im not tier list chasing. I just swap my weapon everytime i play a new monster hunter. In 4 Ultimate it was LS In World it has Hammer In Rise it was S&S and now i want to try Gun lance, so sorry if I bother you with my swap, but thats how its gonna be Edit: btw i forgot to mention the reason i choose GL to begin with was because i love how the new mechanic looks when you stop a monster with your weapon and GL looked the coolest with how you stopped it with your shield and then send the monster packing.

[@GMurph2336]

Changing focus to toggle is super useful for gunlance imo

[@gamecavalier3230]

I am, SOOOOOOO, ready for my main to get this massive glow up, it looks so good!

[@romankoch8507]

gimme me gimme me gimme me moooooore :) i ´m preloading it right now... so hyped

[@ArekkzGaming]

Hope you have a bunch of fun on it, I want to see how it plays on PC myself!

[@WillieBeW3]

Still hoping for elemental shells...

[@LordOfAsshes]

I'm hoping, that the elements will be viable not only as multi-hit beneficiars this time and more like seperate ingame mechanics (heat up and weaken something metal, cool of smth malding, clean of protective layers and etc.), that MUST be utilized for different gaming experience (at the end I will elaborate this thought). We already got smth close to this idea with Wolrd's/Icebourne's Barroth and Lavasioth as more obvious examples (Alatreon done it really bad, making element just another raw, but with obligatory number check; I'm saying this as certified "elementalist" hunter, mind you). But single weapon at hand made it so only slinger pods were used, and even them - by the minority (why many people hated Lasavioth btw). General public just think about single most universal option - physical raw. And understandable so, cos crafting 5 weapons is a lot more, than 1 and only + most useful moves on many weapons (like GS, as a perfect example) suck with elements and even statuses, so if you want to play with that options as GS hunter, you need to spam charged round slashes (which are even longer for preperation, than basic charged slashes LOL; and yeah, motion values are NOT the part of the ingame information as additional problem to elemental builds). So if we as players can use elemental weapons as hunt-flow changing feature, I think it will be better for everyone. What I mean: e.g. you hunting Doshaguma with raw - fight goes as usual. But when you use fire weapon, your attacks burn it's fur and skin, dealing additional tick damage, but Doshaguma then rages more and faster, also using new wide rolling attacks to prevent fire spreading. Thus you either can hunt medium difficulty, but longer, or use faster option with more risk. For thunder it can be so Doshaguma fears Rey Dau, thus fighting more cowardly, usually calling for its pack for help and usilng more ranged attacks, throwing boulders and ceratonoths as a method of fight prevention. Whereas thunder itself can have implemented stun status affliction accumulation (like KO and Exhaust on the head, but slower and every hitzone), cos Doshaguma is, for this case, weak to lightning. Just imagine, how this implication can make very monster even more unique of an experience for players!

[@Tacos_Sauce_Zea]

an alternative would be to make wyrmstake do a MV of your gunlance's element atk, could be a way to make elemental gunlance be more than a slaplance exclusive

[@wonton1510]

elemental shells would look so cool

[@outroruan]

GL looks so cool. I'm tried MH before, but Wilds got me. I enjoyed HH and GL so much. But I'm still open to learning more about the weapons with the guides here.

[@KazikoWhite]

Well I wasn't going to main gunlance.. But now I'm considering it.

[@toxicreptile9630]

Gunlance is a beast now! I was a gunlance main in world and now the weapon is like 5 times more fun! By the way. The fast wyvern fire can be done after a perfect guard, any of the whyrmstakes or after a wyvern fire.

[@Anxiety_cx]

As a gunlance main, I cannot wait to use it in wilds! I will miss the blast dash though 😢

[@MyrtDFY]

First time being first, i've watched other channel's video. really love what theyre doing with GL, making them more mobile

[@ArekkzGaming]

Same here!

[@makosaltaccount9658]

It is objectively less mobile here with the removal of blast dash, but the mirco adjustments with shell step and focus mode to realign yourself is really wicked! Can't wait to see what the game cooks up

[@free_instructions2259]

​@@makosaltaccount9658 more mobile compared to main titles. The portable titles like rise and such shouldn't be counted because they're always way crazy compared to the main titles in movement

[@HansangVibration]

gunlance main here! I absolutely love this iteration!! The best GL has ever been

[@IndraKatiK]

I was originally planning for a boring bow & longsword combo but after watching this video... I'm tempted to try GL

[@tmort86]

Man I love gun lance been using it since world and the changes are pretty sweet.

[@curts7801]

I usually try a new weapon for much of the story before coming back to Gunlance, but not this time. The weapon just feels so vicious and brutal this time. Like an unyielding juggernaut. We’re coming back home to Gunlance, boys!

[@JumpyLemming22]

I am planning on maining the Gunlance but it looks like it is going to take a lot of skill and practice to master

[@SalixMusic-vv1xy]

When performing wyrmstake full blast, make sure you are using the new aim function. You will not miss the attack anymore. Love the new gunlance. definately going to be my main weapon.

[@kidstarr100]

That Wyvern’s Fire on the the Chatacabra in the beginning was just devious 😂

[@FungshwayGorilla]

Going to try to pull away from swag axe and try a new weapon this game. It might be time to finally try out GL!

[@PowerDragon999]

Man, I’m gonna miss the ability to fly like in monster Hunter rise. That was hella fun to be a flying gun lol.

[@michaeldeleon8970]

Real quick since no one is talking about this the lance has the dragoon move in the new trailer but it’s not in the BETA….. so yea the weapons are missing moves themselves could be the skill arts coming into wilds.

[@alfonzofann9656]

blast dash please ;_;

[@JJGateway01]

The dragoon move is the mount finisher

[@michaeldeleon8970]

@@JJGateway01 I’m hip

[@spacedoutpirate6599]

I'm a gunlance main and I gotta say the new changes and combos are amazing. My only complaint is that I really want blast dash to come back. It made keeping up with faster monsters so much easier allowing me to keep pressure up. I would gladly trade charged shelling for it. Other than that my god does the new wide sweep shelling combo feel good!

[@Telashar]

I know it might not sit well with many people, but I really hoped that Bullet Barrage would be included, in some form... I really loved that thing.

[@LyghtSyde]

The moment I was able to change my weapon, I picked up the gunlance. I'm excited to see how much damage I can get from skills when full release is out.

[@ThatguyLyle]

Love the feel of the new gunlance. Its been my main since freedom unite.

[@Sky92on]

I like to switch main weapons in every MH game, and Gunlance is a serious contender this time round!

[@PooperTron]

Let's go Thank you 😩❤️❤️

[@StretchyPlays]

Wyrmstake full blast is awesome, I'll definitely be using GL a lot just to spam it.

[@justWatching1224]

Love gunlance

[@uriarte411]

As a long time suffering Gunlance main, we're so back

[@sirdovis7957]

Gunlance and heavy bowgun is what imma be running. Get in close and aggressive, then fall back for area support.

[@Lotus_River]

But why fall back?

[@sirdovis7957]

@Lotus_River to use ammo like recovery ammo to heal teammates and also ammo to help boost teammates attack and defense.

[@CrystalFox__]

Not maining, but secondary with CB, swapping between the two at any point I choose during PS Plus early access beta has been glorious

[@Wibbz]

I need that horn video!

[@Vell1981]

It will be a clutch for my Main Weapon Gunlance or Charge Blade when Wilds releases. Gunlance in Lead by a slim Margin.

[@ANIMESHINOBI613]

First time playing gl and a monster hunter game in I love it can't wait till this game releases

[@gorgelazly462]

Been maining gunlance and it helps to know a more effective route to full blast because that is all I spam😂 its so much fun

[@sovansundertale3845]

I was interested in this game planning to make a cowgirl oh boy were my prayers answered even further when I enjoyed GL in the demo

[@VTsimpingSan]

Man, I'm stuck between Gunlance, SnS and Duel Blades. Everything is looking so good in Wilds

[@beeeeeeeeeeeeeeee1]

Reading the tooltips so I don't have to :D thanks for the guide

[@logancosta3166]

Really hope we can blast dash too. As a gunlance main everything seems so much better in the beta but will be missing the dashes

[@ButterNuss.]

This is literally the Omni Lance from World's ICE Mod. Guess im playing a ton of Gunlance in wilds

[@ravennamedrook]

I know this isn't an insect glaive video, but if you haven't already discovered it, please showcase the ability to cancel out of the aerial helicopter with a charged O dive attack. It helps the flow of the weapons aerial mobility so much more and the helicopter makes it so much easier to get the charge timing in. 🙏

[@gunm808]

I'll probably secondary it later on. Still going to main GS with HH as secondary. I like SA and hammer as well.

[@DHMyers1994]

I always try a new weapon to main each title, and I chose gunlnce way back when the game was first announced no real reason, looks like I’m gonna have a lot of fun

[@grummdoesstuff2983]

There’s my baby, looking spicy this time around, now I’m just waiting for my first love IG

[@leloulnnn3318]

Wanted to switch to a different weapon for wilds and loved the lance gameplay, so I also tried the gunlance too, after testing GL I just found it to be a "better" lance because for me it's juste a lance with the gun bit added but I know it can't be that simple so wanted to know, lance and GL mains can you explain why you chose one and not the other/ the differences to help me make my decsision ?

[@Nomo-sapiens]

I prefer GL for the boom boom and the changes are so good!

[@bryceallen8106]

Lance is a reactive weapon, using a monsters moveset against it. Play lance if you like always keeping uptime on monsters and learning their kits. Gunlance is a combo weapon, built to put out DAMAGE. Play Gunlance if you like to do combo strings and deal big bursts of damage.

[@Dac85]

I miss the stake after charged shot. Wonder what Wide and Long gun differences will be.

[@Klookko]

Funlance looking quite fun

[@zaokdimenoms7670]

long sword and shield

[@commonjoe123]

with a gun!

[@Darkwater1886]

Not sure how I feel about the changes. I never played Rise but World/Iceborne felt like a heavyweight boxing match. It wasn't about fancy combos but when and where to stab/shell/blast. Dodge/Block and hit and decide what move to follow with. Not slide all over the place like dual blades or longsword.

[@unovashu6582]

Waiting on the Insect Glaive guide Fr ❤️

[@Trancewave]

I'm gonna miss street racing people on their Palamutes with my gunlance being my mount.

[@fjshdf]

Man, I really really hope bugstick keeps advancing roundslash from Rise. Forget the counter-jump thing, just the hits and gapclose please.

[@Luftgitarrenprofi]

Gunlance seems to be now what I wanted Charge Blade to be. Guess I'll be ditching the pizza cutter and switching over to the boomstick

[@yoyoyouka]

Shelling doesn't reduce sharpness is a game changer, I don't need to sharpen every 3 wyvernstake burst anymore

[@Beef_Strokinoff]

How hard would it be for a longtime lance/chargeblade main to get into the gunlance?

[@unipatoonie3639]

With so many of the weapons getting block buffs and counters, I wonder what the lance is gonna look like

[@frothyllama8909]

Sure would be nice to see the non-PlayStation controls in the weapon guide videos. I realize the pc and Xbox versions aren’t out yet, but maybe wait for the weapons guides until then

[@deviljoegaming]

I didn't like GL in world. Hammer will always be my main, but GL has earned its spot as my secondary weapon

[@marvinthompson2]

Hopefully insect glaive is next because it felt like they messed up the weapon but maybe i was doing something wrong

[@Artem-eu3uv]

Next Lance, please. I wonder if it can actively hit with a shield like in Rise. I don't like the hammer, but I like strike damage.

[@joshuasmith9061]

Gunlance has come a long way since Unite.

[@LugborG]

I know most people use them, but I really hope you can put alternate buttons up on screen for people who don't use controllers once the full game comes out. It was a bit painful having to translate the guide for world into keyboard inputs.

[@writerjr7299]

"quick combo" - proceeds to have a screen full of button inputs. my body is ready but my mind is weak

[@federic06g67]

4:18 Nah this combo is crazy cool

[@chaintheultima8716]

My baby just got more powerful!.... Oh dear god I became gunlance user version of Josh from Rage Gaming.

[@TheSabs-ix1ou]

Aw I was hoping to see if you become a tank on the back of the seikret when using gunlance to fire shellings at the monster while running

[@sc5the]

yo hunting horn will end up being probably one of the most used weapons because let’s say endgame you main one weapon, you just use HH to buff it.

[@sorenkazaren4659]

Impatiently waiting for bow video. 😆

[@ArekkzGaming]

👀

[@runaljod]

Does shelling deal part damage?

[@magmarneal]

Gunlance is definitely more complicated than Charge Blade, I hope it steals the complicated weapon throne.

[@sebachii3889]

i was really hoping for a semi blast dash

[@Buphido]

I already have three separate dual-weapon loadouts in mind xD GS-Hammer, with attack focused armor skills, DB-LBG, with status and/or elemental focus, and GL-HBG for explosions! This video just convinced me all the more that this game will be my first foray into the gunlance!

[@Veslelia_cw]

Gun Lance eating good!

[@KosmiQ22]

Am i the only one whos upset they took the "rocket lunge" away from the GL? They introduced it in Rise and when i tried it, I fell in love. I became a GL main, but now with that gone i feel way less mobile. Back to hammer I guess :/

[@spencerhanson7808]

Insect glaive!!!

[@Amethyst_Spark]

I hope there's a second beta. I didn't play enough

[@KongoStax]

Hunting Horn next please

[@dbeardconqueror]

rip blast dash. ngl as much as I am excited about the new moves, not being able to blast dash into a downward thrust to close the distance and play super aggro and stay in the monster's face will always be a bit disappointing to me. I'm still hopeful that it'll be in the dlc though!

[@Gustaviustwinkelberry]

Do i have to play online or can i also play alone offline?

[@thejacker5655]

Miss the rocket gunlance

[@nrshocks6931]

Ah my explosive brothers. (lance main)

[@sc5the]

gunlance + charge blade; sometimes i want to be flashy and completely out play the monster. sometimes i want to shoot a monster in the face.

I never understood why we had to sharpen the barrel of the gunlance

[@asghargodzila]

Why i cant play it anymore. Are servers down alrdy?

Gotta wait for it to start back up for us. We only had early access and now need to wait for it to be released for everyone.

Should be tonight
