The 10 Levels of Switch Axe Mastery

[@xChaosPsycho]

Finally a swaxe player that doesnt just mindlessly spam ZSD. Good stuff man

[@BloodyWyverian]

Thank you! While I hope this signature move returns in Wilds, the amount of spam possible in World and Iceborne, especially thanks to the mantles, really makes this amazing weapon seem stale to some...

[@xChaosPsycho]

@@NamNguyen-vu2zj style and dps wise its hard to argue against that haha. im just not a big fan of players who slap on temporal/rocksteady with tool specialist 5 and power prolonger 3 to spam zsd. the swaxe offers so much more! with the correct flow you can really “dance” with the monster

[@zzzzzzz1413]

Already beaten fatalis but I still can't predict the flinches of monsters properly :/

[@BloodyWyverian]

You can be proud of yourself for just beating Fatalis! The flinch predicting really takes practice with certain monsters and somewhat understanding "how much damage will result in a flinch". Power Axe mode and part breaker REALLY help with that. All my clips are in axe mode and mostly in power axe mode! If you really want to learn it I'd recommend just picking a few of your favorite monsters and try to spectate their behavior as you focus different parts and at some point you'll be like " okay that next hit on that part could very well result in a flinch" and of course it doesn't work every time even for me lol

[@madprops4615]

Watching you play swaxe is immensely satisfying. I never used it in world or 4U but i did main it in tri on the wii. But then i discovered IG and i never looked back... Now that's a weapon i have mastered. Everything else feels too grounded because i fell in love with the sky

[@BloodyWyverian]

Thank you! And it seems like you've found your calling. I already loved Switch Axe in tri but in World and especially Iceborne it got so many upgrades that I can't put it away again.

[@DumbDalzel]

A friend sent me this asking at what level i am since i've been maining SA since Tri, and while we were watching it togheter i predicted to him all the moves that were to come in the flow clips. Awesome job at breaking down all the facets of MHWI SA and showcasing them directly with self-explanatory clips, like, huge kudos. Glad to see love for the weapon, and hope to see more in the upcoming Wilds

[@BloodyWyverian]

Thank you very much for your feedback! I've been a main since tri as well and will never change! I can't wait for Wilds version of Switch Axe either!

Fantasic editing transition at 2:34 my dude

[@HunterKillerBotLoL]

Currently in the "empower sword > ZSD until no sword > Axe mode till sword > ZSD until no empower/Sword > Axe till sword > Empower Sword > " loop and am just learning the weapon. But I have to say, this was beautiful to watch. Makes me really excited to try to learn all of the finer details of the weapon (I still struggle HARD with using fade slash to evade. lol)

[@BloodyWyverian]

Very nice! The weapon really has so many awesome details and learning things like the fade slashes, is super satisfying once you get the hang of them, but yeah they can be tricky lol in Wilds they will be a lot quicker though!

[@theexsalted9352]

swaxe main here since 3 tri. Awesome video that highlights the aspects of the weapon! To me my Swaxe is a jack of all trades, being able to be safe mobile and long range attacker (axe mode) or close hard hitting 1000C butter knife at the cost of range and mobility. And being able to master both playstyles is what makes a good Swaxe player.

[@bloodyjester4284]

I actually stated learning this weapon a couple days ago, so only LVL 2 i'd say. I hope that by the time I finish Iceborne I can get to LVL 8, learning proper timings to do Slinger Bursts instead of just throwing them out there when I feel like i'm in danger. Great Video, loved every second of it.

[@BloodyWyverian]

Thank you very much! And yes I remember! Nice goal you have there, the slinger bursts may even return so it might pay off to learn them now.

You'll love Switch Axe in World I'm sure! And thank you for the feedback!

[@ggslushy]

I played the game with Insect Glaive and only changed to switch axe at raging brachy, I love this weapon so much, I still have to learn how to evade with the hops and sword mode evasion is basically nonexistant xD I only use sword mode when I'm 100% confident I won't have to dodge anything that's how bad I'm at the hop version of dodging.

[@abysslord_625]

The video that made me pick up MHWI Swaxe again, but this time playing it thanks to watching, skill has improved by so much to the point I’m around lvl 7. Hoping to jump to lvl 8 and just practice maximising the flow with lvl 10 cause predicting flinches will come in time as we play and get used to monsters

[@sirith9157]

I don't know why KZbin showed me this so late, but God damn dude. You're a beast with this weapon. I'm playing mostly with my friend so predicting fliches can be a chalange there, however almost thousand hunts with Switch Axe didn't went to waste. It's on a completely different level compared to other weapons. It's just build different, just like Charge Blade. An inseanly high skill celling, but payoff is off the chart. Mastering it require a different mindset to begin with. It's a deadly dance, rather than spamming one move - speaking of you SnS amongst other weapons, I still love you tho. Keep dancing my Fellow Swagster and let the flinches be with you ❤ P. S. I absolutely adore how you're using ZSD instead of spamming it. It have much lower partbreak modifier and flinch potential than rest of the kit. It makes for a real performance, rather than braindead playstyle which everyone prefer. I had learned a lot just from watching this video alone, but I'm still far from your level of precision 😅

Thank you very much for the compliments! You keep at it too my friend!

after many. many. MANY. iterations and years of monster hunter, even to this day, predicting flinches is definitely one of the more nuanced things that most people wont utilize. shits hard to learn. cant wait for wilds, and cant wait to see if we got to keep any potential silkbind techniques from risebreak for it. either way, switch axe and longsword shall yet again, be my mains.

[@ChiruYES]

As a switchaxer since Tri I'm a lvl8. Its not my main but I also feel like my actual main (lance) has made it so that I don't really pay attention or look forward that much to flinches LOL. The only weapon I can consistently get the "oh a flinch is gonna happen" is probably GS and thats probably more in part due to its chunky numbers.

[@DeWitt22]

This made me want to play more switch axe, i already played a good amount of it but never tried to master it, btw great music choice

[@keithlewis5529]

Your swagaxe play is so enjoyable to watch. By the time I was at thru with Iceborne I was a level 7, by passing level 8, with some level 9/10 sprinkled in. I never did bother learning how to properly use slinger bursts though, lol

[@BloodyWyverian]

Thank you so much! That is an impressive level you got there! The slinger bursts aren't mandatory of course, just like some other levels, but they are hella fun and can make you even more aggressive against many monsters! But as long as you're having fun you are doing everything right.

[@KaioKevin93]

Great video! When I finished iceborne on ps4 I was still level 9... getting a more consistent feel for flinches is something I can hope to continue when Wilds releases (I havent touched Rise since beating Sunbreak expansion on release)

I am ashamed to call myself a switch axe main knowing i am nowhere near the level i should be

[@BloodyWyverian]

Don't worry, it doesn't matter which level you are as long as you have fun on your hunts!

[@tf1356]

Predictable flinches lvl9 is the most satisfying thing about the swaxe for me. Do you know if generally the powered up axe stuns or breaks more consistently? I know it breaks better, but for flinching the monster, does it flinch them better in powered axe mode or about the same as axe mode

[@BloodyWyverian]

It is really amazing and yes, power axe mode increases part break damage and staggers/ flinches monsters more often. So predicting the flinches is for sure the easiest in power axe mode.

[@tf1356]

@@BloodyWyverian follow Up question, does slugger perk “stun” damage effectively cause a flinch? Interruption in their attack I mean.

[@BloodyWyverian]

@@tf1356 You can only apply stun damage with Switch Axe if you have an exhaust phial (so sword mode only) or you use the mantle that gives every attack a stunn effect. But yes, as the stun and exhaust damage builds up on the monster it causes even more flinches. So combining power axe mode with stun damage is only possible with the mantle.

[@jsj0520]

Started playing again last week for the first time since 2018. I used the kinsect, longsword and hammer mostly back then. But now I’ve dropped the longsword and kinsect for dual blades, switch axe and lance. I used dual blades almost all of low rank and started using the switch axe and lance in high rank. I’m probably just below level 2 for switch axe lol but holy shit do I feel powerful as fuck when I jam the sword in a monsters skull and blow up their head. Haven’t used it the past 2-3 days though because I’ve started to understand the flow of lances and guarding so many attacks. And lance has now become my current obsession lol. I’ve got the max rank nergigante lance but when I have enough azure rathalos parts I’ll upgrade my switch axe and start using that again.

[@BloodyWyverian]

Very interesting journey you got there with your mains. All weapons are amazing in this game and I can understand your obsession with lance lol I'm excited to see what Wilds brings to the table next year!

[@Adelesprings]

Wow you can really dance!

[@juzzi]

level 2 of "optimised chains" has much more depth than you think, it should come right before "maximising flow" - ironically, many of your chains are not optimal a lot of the rankings here are weird

[@BloodyWyverian]

Well, many levels are pretty much ongoing throughout learning to play the weapon, optimizing your chains is always situational and I could have made one level with highest DPS chains around level 3 or so but just like the Switch Axe itself I wanted the ranking for many people to feel fluent and not static, I think that makes it more intersting. I think my rankings are fine for playing Switch Axe as interestingly as possible and still being "more skillfull" throughout the progression of each level.

[@InfernityZ3r0]

Im sitting comfortably at level 4 because the camera doesnt always cooperate so whenever i try to hit a fade slash, it freaking pokes instead

[@BloodyWyverian]

That is indeed really tricky sometimes, still happens to me from time to time. Wilds could possibly fix this with Focus Mode.

[@Sadcatblake]

I like to zsd spam on some monsters but i just really like all the combos on switchaxe and tend to mix and match the playstyles depending on what the monster is doing,if its being fast and agressive ill probably mostly use zsd spam, if i can get the monster too hold still im gonna use sword combos for as long as i can and ending it with a zsd for high damage

Awesome! The slinger brusts can really help increasing flow even further! Predicting flinches is easiest with power axe mode and part breaker but it doesn't work everytime anyway lol

I'm probably like 6 or 7, predicting flinched is like 20% success for me. Fuck it we ball mentality.

[@RoseScar]

Great video, Im easily at lv 1 lol, ive only messed around with SA a couple of times, which is unfortunate since SA is such a cool weapon, this video def inspires me to practice with it more, this always happens when i see high end players with weps i dont use, which always leaves me in awe and jealous cause i wanna look that cool with the weapon but reality hits me and i know for fact ill never be that cool with them lol also i need to know the music you use, it such a banger

[@BloodyWyverian]

I bet you're better than you think already and I'm glad my video inspired you to give it a try! Sticking to one weapon for some time can be difficult for some but it really pays off, especially with a weapon like Switch Axe where you actually see progress all the time no matter how small your steps are.

Genuine question. How does one attain mastery like this? Like, do you just know the hit zones and motion values that well?? I'm always so confused

[@snowstorm5103]

[@ChadianRoyal]

@@snowstorm5103 probably. I've had moments of "I know what I'm doing!" before but it's so much more consistent! It's so cool

[@BloodyWyverian]

Practice mainly, but the more you pay attention to what is happening and what options you have available the easier it gets. You can have 1000h of playtime and 3000 hunts with one weapon but if you don't actually pay attention or try to push your builds and own performance you won't get much further. Trying new things plays a huge part in that and setting own goals or knowing "okay I could improve here or there" makes sure you will always make progress. And of course the most important thing that you have fun doing so!

level 8 roughly. slinger is still giving me grief every now and again

Very nice! We may get to see slinger bursts again in Wilds so practicing those may even be advantageous for the next title lol But it took me a long time to use them as well.

[@barbedfungus3877]

A generous level 8 for me. I don't often use Slinger Bursts but i like them when i have slinger ammo. also, predicting flinches is insane. how? how do you count damage that accurately? how do you definitively hit the right part enough to be sure your next hit will flinch? It's not like you do the EXACT same string of combos every fight, and crit chance (and therefore overall crit damage) is uncertain at times. do you just not play the game until it is?

[@BloodyWyverian]

At this point it is kind of a "feeling", like.. yeah I hit that tail so many times it HAS to come off now... doesn't work always though... partbreaker and power axe mode really help here since it deals so much part damage. and well of course practice with each monsters also factors in...

I think I'm at level -1

[@BloodyWyverian]

Well, that's a start but I bet you're better than you give yourself credit for!

@@BloodyWyverian Thank you! I'm not really good at playing Swax but it is my main before I betrayed it and used a charge blade instead in rise but now I just got world and currently using IG in low rank but I'll make sure to revisit Swax and try to master it!

[@maldivesthegamer9774]

@@BloodyWyverian Also this video is super amazing and inspiring!

@@maldivesthegamer9774 Enjoy your hunting, no matter what weapon! Switch Axe really gets satisfying after a while in Iceborne, but IG is a cool weapon too!

[@kaen4299]

lmao... because it's ass, the distance you dodge and the speed of it is not good, it's just to flex and look cool in montages

I am proud to say that after 4 years of Iceborne, I am finally Level 8. And yet I still get my shit kicked in by Rajang...

[@BloodyWyverian]

That is very impressive! Honestly.. I hate regular Rajang, furious is a much better fight IMO
