Monster Hunter World Iceborne; Is Aerial Insect Glaive REALLY that bad? Plus Airborne Skill Showcase

[@tri5687]

i think that aerial insect glaive is good Because it is fun :)

[@negativegaming1337]

Agreed! It's also quite good because it allows for unparalleled mobility and combat uptime, and between that and the pure fun factor, that's why I'm forever jumping 😂

@@negativegaming1337 LITERALLY. i've mained about 7 of the 14 weapon types and i've never had as much fun with anything else - aerial combat insect glaive is fantastic especially for maneuverability and destroying parts that are hard to reach or remaining aggressive during monsters' enraged states. DPS doesn't equal efficiency!

[@Miner49errr]

it's a PVE game. Fun is really all that matters.

if you got the 3 buffs in the aerial fight you'll do more dmg Red + White = 10% Attack increase White + Orange = 10% Defense increase Red + White + Orange (triple buff) = 15% Attack increase + 10% Defense increase. Lasts for 90 seconds

[@negativegaming1337]

Correct! With the Chicken I tested on in the video however, getting that orange buff is tedious unless he's carrying a stone, so I typically don't stress about that extra 5% with him unless it's an easy grab opportunity.
