Monster Hunter Wilds | Lance New Moves Guide

People actually predicted this feature when the seikret was revealed. It's actually more surprising if Capcom didn't include it

lance is really different from world. I think it might be a bit of a learning curve to relearn the weapon, but i think it'll be for the better in the long run, it does feel very fun still

[@Slyfen]

Best Lance guide for new changes and additions yet. I watched a few other guides and they all missed at least one attack or mechanic, I think this covered everything. 👍

[@DarkZemX]

Bigtime! Best guide by far! Additional their Light Bow gun Guide. So much Light Bow gun guides totally ignoring the mobility options 🤦🏾‍♂️.

[@themccman]

I became a lance main over the course of sunbreak and I gotta say I’m loving wilds lance so far.

[@Figorix]

Ngl, these guides, even if just temporary are actually best entry guides for MH (both world and this). Everyone else just take way too long going over simple concepts and way too short going over hard concepts. You use Arekkz for entry, play weapon for X hours, then maybe move to like 1h+ in depth from some guy that has 5k hours into the weapon :D

[@SuperfluousMoniker]

Been bouncing between lance and greatsword as my favorite weapon in the beta. Lance is going to really shine in the full game assuming there's a skill that gives you attack up after a perfect guard like in previous games. It feels a lot easier to get those guards now since almost everything can be cancelled into a guard.

[@chrislee7775]

You mean offensive guard? Best skill for both lance and GL.

[@knutaf]

lance main here. oh man, it turns out i was only using like half the moveset when i played the beta, haha. charge counter?? follow up dash?? i had no idea these things were in there. can't wait to try it again when the full game comes out. thanks for this, very educational

[@jam726]

Lance is so different now, I initially hated it but I’m really starting to come around to it. It seems to have a way higher skill cap now with the charged counter thrust changes as well as adding wide sweeps and mixing thrusts to maximise damage in combos.

[@Foatizenknechtl]

idk about that. wouldnt really call it a higher skill cap just because youre now forced to use the shitty sweep. pressing 2 buttons at the same time really feels shiiiiiet.

[@Ashamran]

@@Foatizenknechtlthen don’t use wide sweep

[@jam726]

@@Foatizenknechtl it’s not a massive skill gap, but having the spacing and different timing to go high thrust 1, wide sweep, mid thrust 3, triple poke for max dps is definitely harder than just triple high thrust over and over or just dash attacking.

I love how many lances I am seeing in both the PS5 playtest and the full playtest! I wonder how many people are just testing it out and how many people are sold on it as a weapon? Welcome aboard, I say!

[@zawardo5909]

quick notes: -On your third poke the mid thrust does more damage than the high thrust -the follow up rush attack can be done both after perfect guard and power guarding, but in the demo it is very akward to use since you will probably overshoot and be forced to do the reverse sweep, which is sad becaus the strong thrust+twin finishing thrust does great damage

@@Catumbo You are adding 5 minutes to your hunts by doing that. Blocking is not a big of a DPS loss now with the counters, but it's still better to have good positioning and keep attacking, instead of loosing time blocking. I'm not going to mention how the long sword gets to flat out ignore attacks at no stamina cost and gets a counter that does more damage and grants a damage boost.

[@helgenlane]

As someone who loves shield weapons but never bothered with lance, in Wilds it actually seems pretty cool and appears that now it has a higher skill ceiling, which is great in my book.

[@vergdan5258]

In focus mode, mid thrust allows you to step in the direction of your left analogue stick, while high trust allows you to rotate the direction of your lance. Something I'm trying to get a grasp on.

[@czairkolmoslink5952]

I feel like Charge counter is a good idea but what if you could do it if you hold down High Thrust? I feel like this will make Lance players more happy about this change. So press and hold Mechanic Just pressing gives us the normal High Thrust but holding down High Thrust Button Gives up Counter Thrust. Same idea but more skill added Also, I like them to add a Shield Bash option to Dash Attack. This way we can choose to do more Damage without Lealing Thrust attacks or more KO with a Shield Bash attack. There are some problems like Leaping Thrist having worse recovery and not hitting 3 times. But over all i’m liking the new Lance

[@lordpepper6932]

They made lance fun again!

[@Morveyn]

Blocking beam/stream attacks isn't unique to lance, I've been able to trigger that animation with gunlance and greatsword as well. It seems to be a bit of added visual drama for blocking powerful ranged attacks from certain monsters, though it may mean that it's possible for blocking weapons to protect other hunters from certain attacks.

[@MetalMonkey1453]

The fact that you can't enter a counter stance without finishing a combo now really makes the flow feel different. Not sure I liked it all that much at first. But simply blocking now serves a similar purpose, so I guess it's okay. Am gonna miss shield spamming into a stun from Rise, though, hahah.

[@zeik101]

The power guard can counter thrust so I don’t really feel a difference tbh

[@norsehorse84]

@@zeik101 thing is the power guard could always counter thrust. I'm still not used to this because now you basically act like you have adept style lance in MHGU, where you have no counter thrust, but instead do insta guard to counter quickly. I'm not a fan personally. If they just made it so you had the counter thrust with guard+circle, even if it was the weakest counter option out of all the new and reworked old ones, I'd be a lot happier. Then again, I played guard lance more than dodge lance, and my counter timing sucks so maybe I'll just have to rely on power guard as my "normal counter" for now

[@MetalMonkey1453]

@zeik101 It's considerably slower and requires you to take chip damage, too, so it feels quite different. That method of counter was also in the other games, too, so it's not so much a replacement as it is a carried over mechanic. Pros and cons to both. 360 degree guarding is nice, sometimes.

[@MacDonellCashRicher]

Honestly, it's still better than pre world Lance, where you could only dodge, not counter or guard, after the third poke.

[@kaiokado1667]

Something not mentioned is that you can now reposition yourself after a guard dash shield bash. After the shield bash you can do a full 180 turn poke.

[@Catumbo]

i was planning on maining CB this game, then i tried the lance... im now maining lance (+ bow probably)

[@pigsmacker213]

Lance flows so smoothly in Wilds due to Focus Mode. Everything in your rotation benefits from it.

[@VigilanteMike]

Idk why people say it's damage is good it's the bottom tier weapon DPS and damage wise it's bottom?

[@josegabrielalves191]

It's about the uptime. Only ranged weapons can just stay offensive constantly like the lance. ​@@VigilanteMike

[@pigsmacker213]

@@VigilanteMike That's just objectively not true. Honestly it probably has the highest dps out of all the weapons simply for overall consistency alone. You literally never need to let up your attack with Wilds focus mode Lance. I hunted Rey Dau so many times, and I noticed almost immediately that it was borderline a joke with Lance. Even your block is an attack now. The damage numbers only look small individually but overall together they're they're quite high. Especially when you consider the fact that your rotation now is pretty much an infinite loop that's extremely easy to execute. There is basically zero reason to stop your attack unless your HP is critical. This will just become more apparent when you consider the fact Lance is already this strong WITHOUT Guard Up.

[@BVCasper]

Any chance to make a Hammer video next?

[@rhuntern]

Just as a side note: I don't think you need to land a Perfect Guard to trigger the auto bash. I was cornered by 3 Doshuguma and it kept proccing the auto bash as I just stood there holding the shield up. I think all you get from Perfect Guard are reduced chip and stamina drain, and the Follow-Up Dash Attack. But, the window for Perfect Guard is significantly better than the window for Adept Block in RiseBreak, so it's actually really easy to get now anyway.

They gave it a lot of end lag. Plus the actually attack doesn’t do that much damage anymore. Actually they even took away a hit away from it. Now it only attacks twice.

[@AMoralMan]

Changed does not mean gone.

[@NLookabill94]

@@JosephG70 so they nerfed it. Idk why they'd nerf it cause it wasn't that busted in the grand scheme of things

[@Ashamran]

I can’t speak on the end lag because I don’t use leaping thrust enough to tell, but even though it only does 2 hits it actually does almost the same amount of damage as one high thrust for each hit, and in world at least the full attack didn’t even do as much damage as one high thrust

[@mas8705]

I'm a bit split on the lance. The one thing I couldn't figure out what a slight change that was done with power guard (or how you can stack into power guard after doing a counter). Either I didn't do it right or they changed out it worked, but I remember being able to do a "counter stance" with Lance and then go into the power guard in case if I'm about take a hit, but for one reason or another it didn't seem to work. So I didn't figure out in time for the beta or they took that out entirely. Then again in, with the way Lance has been set up for Wilds, it could be a slight loss in order to finally let Lance dance with the big boys (or at least allow the Lance to be a weapon that isn't frowned up as the other 13 weapons as far as damage output goes. Not asking for it to be as fast as Dual blades, but there is kind of a reason why you don't see as many Lance players as the other 13. Even though I'm one of the hundreds of Lancers out there ready to defend the team). I guess overall, I need to refamiliarize myself with Lance after taking a break from Monster Hunter. But Lance will likely be one of the two main weapons I use during my Wilds playthrough.

[@xenvakt300995]

Lance and CB are what i wanna use. Idk how to make sure the skills for yhrm work together though.

[@Ashamran]

They both like guard skill, so that’s easy enough. Considering how powerful perfect guards are now I don’t even think we’ll need max guard, but they might have reworked how the skill works anyways. Besides that, some stamina skills are good for lance, but really it doesn’t need them to work optimally, so it’s pretty easy to fit into a build with another guard weapon. Charge blade is the more deco hungry weapon, but considering how it shares some skills with lance I think this can be done pretty well. Happy hunting

@Ashamran yes! I'm just wondering about phial damage and stuff.

So question on the counter thrust, it doesn't block anymore?

the lance feels worse overall. slower, clunkier, not as tight, and they *actually* took away our option to counter guard mad disappointed in my favorite weapon. i will be maining HH without a question after playing lance

[@Ashamran]

Have you actually played it yet?? Fellow lance main, and I have to say this is the best lance has ever been. It’s a little clunky at first if you’re trying to play it like world lance, but it’s actually faster and smoother now. And counter stance isn’t gone it’s built into your guard now, which is way more streamlined and feels way more natural when you get used to it

[@Michiho.]

why not mention/explaining about the move that got removed in Lance, Thrust Cancel and Counter Claw, to me Thrust Cancel is the most used guard move and the easiest to activate offensive guard and they remove it while counter claw is the only cool move for lance and they change it abit and give it to dual blade instead.

[@Sygmus6]

Yeah, definitely agree with the counter thrust. I think they figured it was redundant after letting you cancel pokes with a simple guard, but it definitely caused Wilds lance to feel very foreign. And I've pretty much resigned to clutch counter never coming back.

[@Mare_Man]

Anything and everything related to the clutch claw should be scrubbed away and forgotten.

@@michaelmcdonald2005 They could have kept it in without issue. It would have been another option. You can only access it now through an attack string instead of on demand and now it doesnt even block the hit. Sometimes in World or Rise after 1 poke you have to guard counter. I also feel like our recovery frames are bigger. I feel slow and my hits dont feel impactful.

[@michaelmcdonald2005]

@@ontae1986 These complaints don't make sense though, since you can still do the equivalent of Guard Counter at any time, just like before (Perfect Guard). Now we have Charge Counter, which is an amazing new addition that increases the skill ceiling of the weapon by a lot. Also, Charge Counter blocks all damage from all attacks, so I don't know what you're saying there. You have to release it as the attack lands, you can't just hold it. The recovery frames are longer on the High Pokes for sure, but that's by design, if you need to delay getting to the Charge Counter

[@axis1247]

​@michaelmcdonald2005 They removed it because it would make it way too easy to get extra damage with power clashes on Lance. Now you have to over commit every counter with charged counter or learn perfect guard timings if you want a similar experience.

[@axis1247]

​@michaelmcdonald2005 The problem with charge counter is its part of a damn combo. In older games I could do 1 thrust counter or 2 thusts counter or use it as a charged combo ender if I wanted. Now its only a combo ender which makes it really clunky for no reason. You basically have to do a combo and hope the monster attacks into your charge counter or does nothing.

Ill put it down though! Slower high poke combo with varied timing for every poke on top of reducing the damage of the final poke to be worse than mid thrust, backhop requiring additional inputs to execute for no real reason other than making you press the focus button, leaping thrust chaining being much slower and covering much less ground on top of doing less damage, and last but certainly not least removing counter thrust. This is just not it man

[@TheKakarikoCucco]

HAMMER WHEN?

[@maosverse8072]

Hey Lancers/Capcom, I wanted to share some thoughts on Monster Hunter Wilds beta before its release. Share your thoughts. 1. Weapons: - Lance: Reintroduce the counter claw from Iceborne for enhanced defense and retaliation. Allow counterattacks or accessible always outside of committed animations and add new offensive options like 2 quick jabs (like spear)or a sweeping attack after a counter parry/block. Speed up attack animations for better responsiveness. - Light Bowgun: Incorporate an evasion mechanic similar to the wirebug counter dodge, using the clutch claw for swift repositioning. This would make it more fun i think. 2. Monsters and Environments: - Monster Difficulty: Ensure monsters are aggressive and unpredictable, similar to battles with Nergigante, Deviljho, and Lunastra. The combat experience should remain thrilling and challenging. - Environmental Challenges: Create environments that require strategic preparation, enhancing the lore and urgency of hunts. - Companion Dynamics: Balance companions like Alma and the Seikret to maintain the challenge of each encounter, preserving the heightened stakes that make hunts rewarding. 3. Endgame Content: Legendary Rank: - Challenges: Introduce a Legendary Rank with unique monsters that push skills to the limit, featuring innovative attack patterns and environmental challenges. with Low, High, Master, and Legendary Ranks, grounds a lifelong, re-playable engaging endgame content. These suggestions are partly to champion for lance, as we want to be flashy too, but overall is my observation with the beta.

[@bluemio7349]

Lance feels fucking horrible to the way it used to for the past games. I get that it might be good still/feel like a cool weapon for people who haven't used it previously, but MAN it feels entirely different and the playstyle is nothing like it used to and I absolutely despise it.

Very disappointed in Lance from what I saw in the beta, and that was playing for about 8 hours with it before I have people telling me I didn't play it, like I'm seeing in the comments often Not only do the numbers feel very low compared to other weapons I tried, the almost complete lack of hitstop and SFX makes the weapon feel like I'm holding a needle and poking with it The guard being so quick is nice, but the counter is incredibly weak and unsatisfying and doesn't flow as nice Being able to hop around so much to reposition is really nice though; but as someone who came in ready to main Lance, the beta completely took the wind out of my sails and I'll be using something else unless there's significant changes

[@TheMoonman4]

"hitstop and SFX" is something every weapon has to deal with (on top of not really being an inherent dealbreaker, I still found the combat satisfying). And worrying about damage is whatever, not like the Lance isn't used to that accusation being thrown at it every game lmao, on top of this just being the demo with a default lance with barely any armor skills

[@SebastianS01]

​@@TheMoonman4 Some weapons were better hitstop/SFX-wise which is why I mention it here - and yes, Lance damage has typically been lower than others but it's not been this far behind; and being the demo doesn't really matter when armor skills are the same for everyone so it's relative, and Lance tends to take more defensive skills anyway so if anything, the gap would be more pronounced

"ton of damage" -> 23 with sweet spot hit zone. Lmao, Lance is DPS trash again. Capcom never learns.

[@Der_wahre_C17]

I have to say lance in Wilds is bad. i liked the lance in world. Ok there are some cool moves like the triple thrust but thats it. No Insta Block anymore and you need a chain to charge counter. High Thrust is now much slower also! I can just hope we have later in story a chance to chance some skills. To this point lance from World/Rise to Wild is a downgrade. Also the damage compared to other weapons (Gunlance) is far behind. This weapon need some change until release.

[@Ashamran]

You are tweaking so hard. Yes, there is an insta block because guarding cancels end lag the same way counter stance did. High thrust is slower, but does more damage, and mid thrust is comparatively way faster which gives way more versatility and actually makes mid thrust viable. Lance’s damage has always been on the lower end, and for very good reason because with how frequently it attack and how little downtime it has it can easily out damage “stronger” weapons like longsword and, yes, gunlance. if you’re gonna make a senseless hate comment like this I would hope you at least know what you’re talking about. Have you even played the beta?

The lance in wilds isn't worse then world's... but it isn't the same. It's deffinetly lost its title has the most aggressive weapon in the game

[@michaelmcdonald2005]

I don't think that's true at all. If you aren't CONSTANTLY attacking in Wilds, just like the other games, you're playing the weapon wrong this time around. Replace your High Thrust chains with Mid Thrust chains and you'll be good in no time
