Sword can SLAY OUT in Escalation! - Dauntless Sword Build

[@Bourbon9203]

Its super satisfying when malk is gonna charge and while everyone else is running away or using the aether vent, i stand my ground and jump into the air to parry his attack for 5k, sending him flying across the maelstorm.

Only started playing this weekend. Love the Strikers, but really like how the swords look in the game. You've now tempted me to play with swords, thank you!

[@RoshamBowe]

Love seeing a sword build and def like a crit sword!!! I have been using a Reza warpike/ cb crit build with +6 on cunning/ discipline and those crit hits feel pretty good!!!

[@backy6943]

joshuastitus yeah I’m a Pike main, and using those crits combined with Acidic is a great extra pike build to have to use for Mastery, literally have hit 800 with a poke with it, amazing.

[@RoshamBowe]

Josh Lolzer Cool... I use berserker and and rage. I like barbed as well but hear good things about acidic, maybe I should give it a try! Warpike is a blast and if you get board with it you can just put Chainblades or Yeet Fist in its place with out changing your entire load out!! 😎

the health indicator is a huge improvement. i didn't play the last season so idk when it was added. Im holding on doing escalation until Im comfy with pc controls which i must say is way more fluid than controller imo.

Escalation is really good. I also realized you can rack up hunting pass tokens faster aside from patrol quests

Oh yeah, escalation is great for tokens and getting bounties done.

So it won't be on behalf of the MHW community but on behalf of myself YOU enjoy YOUR terrible game, which was, actually based off the game I'M playing. But like a cheap copy. Battle pass(or slayer pass whatever idc)? Wtf is that. And you spend money to get better custom upgrade skills for your weapon, you can grind for it, sure. But the high tier ones take forever. And what the hell is with the elemental system, it's so basic lol not much diversity is there, not to mention monster roster. Oh and don't get me started with the graphics. And with the red dragon out for us rn, the weapon designs are a lot better. And we have like 14 of them fuckers that play very differently from each other.

[@nuke2099]

How good are escalations builds in patrols? I only have limited slots for all weapons but if Iceborne is that good then I might use the same builds while doing patrols. Although I feel like Escalation is the superior (for fun) game mode.

[@avyun0077]

I have a question; I'm not sure if you already did this but can you make a video about having a easier way to grind orbs and behemoth resources because I'm struggling. I know the best way is patrols but im too weak to do patrols and it takes ages to farm in pursuit. I have all the armor pieces and the weapon of this build but I cant upgrade because of my lack of resources.

[@brandonperry1031]

Honestly the best you could do is public patrols and hope you get a good squad. Plus, you'd get practice against all the behemoths. That's the best advice I have at the moment, and is what I did to get materials.

[@avyun0077]

@@brandonperry1031 thanks

[@touka9252]

Can this build also work on umbral escalations?

[@jakefarmer386]

Good videos! But as far as this build goes id change a couple things..... rage gives 25% under 50% heath. Ragehunter is only activated on average 10-20% of the time. Ill take rage 100% of the time first..... swap gnasher grips for boreal might and change energizer to aetheric attunement and personally i find myself runnin through behemoths at a much quicker pace. For starters im at 25% plus damage based on using Discipline w/Rage and then for the 10-20% of the match when the behemoth is enraged im doin that extra 15% w ragehunter...... plus with aetheric attunement that weapon charge comes at a faster rate based on my constant rage percentage output. (Depending on the lantern) my focus is on attack speed..... i can charge my lantern faster allowing my attack speed a boost and therefore charges my weapon faster. Lol This is just my experience so thought I’d share! Pop my weapon 1st thing which fully charges my lantern, then i pop my lantern which fully charges my weapon and so on and so on........

[@gidotaubahmizutani9214]

quick question, why do you think maxing ragehunter better than rage? running dicipline make rage up all the time, which is more consistent. but, i can see it better maxing out ragehunter in escalation for more outbrust damage in dual behemoth (dual bhemoth rough...) edit: you can switch ragetail glove with boreus one to max out rage.

[@RevvyVtuber]

Its not really any better. its just that the gear does really line up to have 6 rage over rage hunter.

[@RevvyVtuber]

Behemoths have scaling hp modifiers based on the number of people, so technically yes.

[@manava13skplayer50]

Tbh i just cant play anything that could eat my stamina without skull forge and it has the defense cell so u can slap ice borne there or tough. Sword remains the same/skullforge with iceborne/hellion armor with cunning/borus gloves with rage/borus feet with cunning.

[@dillonc8798]

How are you able to parry?

[@Aguifu]

Any tips on getting malkarion clawhide (limbs) I'm trying to upgrade my malkarion armor. It's hard because malkarion keeps moving or my team kills it before I can get it

[@RevvyVtuber]

Unfortunately, Its kind of a team effort to get specific parts. Axe is really good at getting big hits on the wings if you rock sharpened with it. Coordination is king though.

Discipline cell comes from trial shop. 150 silver mark each. So..Do sub 3-5 minutes normal trial and ur good to go.

[@taberu003]

why don't you use skullforge with that build? seems strong with whistling blade

[@user-xo2og8kv1o]

because u lose out of crit chance and or dmg (at least on paper. sometimes you can spam the combo way longer if you use skulforge than you can with his build because with skullforge you dont run out of stamina at all. so in the end that might make up for the dmg loss in the skullforge version of this build.. or even do more dmg IF you have large openings to spam the combo longer.) i use a skullforge verison of this build too and i like it alot more.

@@Ave-Satanas Skullforge is meta af for sure. but you lose out on dmg. So i just use stam pots.

[@user-xo2og8kv1o]

im pretty sure whistling blade always was better than pommel (bit dependant of the behemoth). maybe its just becoming more popular now bc of the aoe that it has, which is really good in escalation.

Before the cunning nerfs my friend had a sword build with the koshai sword and would hit for 9k 6secs or so 3times it was crazy and he never gave it to me

[@Ave-Satanas]

Is 7.5% crit chance really worth it over the 13% damage lost from not going rage6? :rezathinking:

[@RevvyVtuber]

Depends on the luck that you get with your amps. Rage is gonna be more reliable. Discipline + Amp Luck will be more fun imo. Up to preference.

[@backy6943]

The Crit chance is more important tbh, you’ll have a infinite uptime Savage Wellspring and it’s more fun to use. Seeing all the crits and I’m pretty sure you’ll do way more damage with the crits rather than +3 Rage.

[@theknghtofni3912]

He rolled to it's right and used a strong attack I believe. Pangar has an interrupt window during its roll, but if you're in front of it and not to the side, you'll trade hits with it which is why he rolled to the side before attacking. Looks super cool forsure

What outfit is that and can I still get it?

[@Sorenxdd]

Head and torso are malkarion gear atleast

[@MrAnnonymous96]

I totally agree with you in the beginning there, Trials update was meh bc Trials are just Trials......... fists + stormclaw was a cool update and skraev rework was also kinda ok'ish but this, this update is actually what i was personally asking for, a behemoth which is like Reza and Shrowd, they have some mechanics but not the biggest ones, and you have a gamemode which basically doesn't get boring and on top of that you can grind non-stop i got like what 1k dull arcstones from that and 500 shining arcstones for just grinding all malk weapons, and on top of that it should make you a better player it made me at least booping more often playing more carefully and not just non-stop spamming so i rly love this update Also do we know if the Legendary sword skin stays in after the season is over ? bc i rly want but my pockets empty rn widepeepoSad

[@RevvyVtuber]

I would assume the sword is staying. But its not confirmed.

[@DemonKez]

They need to add an endless mode of this and it would be an awesome mode. - endless mode that keeps getting harder and harder until you cant go further.

[@RevvyVtuber]

Maybe not endless I would definitely like more challenges related to escalation though. For the first iteration, its a lot of fun.

[@ZenelithElm]

Turning me onto the idea of playing sword more, Always enjoyed it but the big damage numbers from axe... 11k is really satisfying, knowing I can get that juicy 5k is almost game changing!
