These Will Be the *BEST WEAPON COMBOS* in Monster Hunter Wilds!!

[@LordViettner]

I know I'm barely scratching the surface on the amount of combos we'll have in Wilds, so what weapon combo are you most excited to try??

[@Wslasher]

Long Sword + Bow for that Samurai role play build.

[@JeannieLove]

Same!

[@peterconnelly3224]

Two Hunting Horns, nuff said

[@ZIPPERKO69]

any horn with melody extended song will be the meta for primary horn weapons... this will not only give you 2 set of songs but will make the buffs from all the other hunters who thought bringing a pocket HH as their second for some 1.5-3 min buffs will make up for the lost in dps while switching weapons and applying buffs

[@majinkevinci]

I don't know a single thing about hunting horn but I'm sure doubling song options can be a viable strategy if you want to main it. I know from comments that some horns have absurdly nice stats but they gave them a not so good song selection.

[@peterconnelly3224]

@@ZIPPERKO69 Melody Extended on a high damage HH alongside a high utility HH would be fantastic if it ends up working out that way! Good call

[@flisboac]

Horn Juggling, let's go! 😂

[@KPlaysHere]

The only true pair for a HH: another HH! It's funny because I'm not even memeing there either. There's literally a song list in past game that essentially just has Attack Up, Knockback Negation, and a song that adds more time to all available song buffs... like c'mon, there couldn't be more perfect synergy. Just throw up your favorite utility song list with no Attack Up, add Attack Up with the main HH, and juggle both full lists with just 1 song

[@JaximusJoe]

DB and Bow was literally exactly what I was thinking too, definitely going to be my go to combo most of the game

[@Ser0z]

I was gonna run that for my first weapon combo to

[@xander0901]

Realistically, I think most people will use two of the same weapon with a status/element or status/raw pair. You get max efficiency in your skills by running two of the same weapon while reaping the benefits of a status weakness and elemental weakness on the monster.

[@Jonatan_Fernandez]

Agree with you, weapons like DB get a huge benefit for that, im go to go with 2 GL with another shelling tipe and thinking in another weapons who i want play i reach to the same point

[@HappiestSadGuy]

No weapon combo will surpass friendship

[@ev_artwork6443]

I'll be honest, the two weapons is mostly superflous for me. At best it would be switch axe and change blade, maybe as a choice of personal matchup is better for a specific fight, but I'd be more likely to have two of the same weapon type, like a Paralysis Switch Axe to build up free hits and swap back to something stronger to finish it out. But I speak only for myself I don't use a lot of the other weapons because I don't particularly enjoy using them as is, or the combat fantasy is just not what I'm into. It is also a potential crutch if we get into situations where the Seikret is unusable, so in Arena situations or big secluded boss fights, so relying on it seems like a bad idea

[@alexandregalanth5195]

Nice ! I'm not alone trying to find the best weapon combo so those are the one i think can be cool : Great Sword - Insecto Glaive Hammer - Long Sword Hunting Horn - Dual Blade Gunlance - Light Bowgun Bow - Sword n shield Charge Blade - Switch Axe Lance - Heavy Bowgun Dual Blade x2 Sword n Shield x2 Insect Glaive x2 Hammer x2 Hunting Horn x2 From what i saw most ppl got the same though process about them.

[@majinkevinci]

I am a Lance main and an HBG sub and I approve the combination so much, only issue is like the usual pierce spread normal deco if you want to go raw with the HBG. So uh you either go full raw or pair up elements.

[@KyouOneZilla]

Power Prolonger SWAxe and IG, Focus benefits like 8 of the weapons in one way or another. Then there are matchup based weapons. Like bringing a ranged weapons to target the wings of flying wyverns or weapons with heavily built in minds eye against hard defense monsters.

[@fishnutz5196]

Heres what i think Capcon might do. In the demo we saw weapons had skills like speed sharpening. It could be possible that some weapons come with skills that make it easy to make weapons that dont have synergy work together. So imagine you just have a high crit damage setup, but you have a long sword that comes with a few levels of quick sheath and you have a bow that comes with bow charge up. Or a switch axe with some built in power prolonger, I think this is what they might do. Ill personally be taking Greatsword and Longsword

[@LordViettner]

yeah definitely a good thought, I wonder how many skills they'll give to the higher tier weapons....

[@fishnutz5196]

@@LordViettner especially when we eventually get the G rank too. Could get crazy

[@megabyte_101]

SnS+Hunting horn with wide-range would be SO fun, I might do that when I play with my friends for sure!

[@Zebo12345678]

Great Sword and Switch Axe/longsword. Assuming the Focus skill still works the same way as it did before, buffing both charge speed (for greatsword) and gauge buildup (for switch axe/longsword) I _would_ say dual blades + insect glaive, for the stamina skills, but with the changes to aerial combat for insect glaive, I don't think we'll _need_ stamina skills for it.

[@jordanbrown3816]

CB and GL are the two weapons I played most in world so it’ll probably be those two I take out first! Though, I’ve been thinking hunting horn looks fun

[@kawkawshi775]

Screw being able to swap weapons. I am still waiting for dual wielding hammers. Hopefully in MH7 :)

[@bhosaleranveer99]

I am thinking: Longsword and Bow - authentic samurai type build Dual blades and bow - fantasy rpg Ranger type build Lance and HH, SnS and HH - Paladin type build CB and HBG - high dmg tank build

[@u.c9142]

GS/CB/GL with HH or sleep LBG for flying monsters is probably gonna be my go to in my fist playthroug, will also learn HH properly to wack the monsters while casting the buffs

[@Elehk99]

Longtime lancer here, good suggestion with the HBG combo! I honestly never considered that option, I may try learning it in Rise to get ready for Wilds

[@teanymonster5227]

Dual Blades + Hunting Horn

[@owencunningham5816]

As an HBG main, I was thinking CB for my secondary for this game, but Lance sounds like a better fallback when getting rushed. I’ll think about it Also, I think Sticky HBG would pair really well with GL, unless they changed/removed the explosion damage up skill.

[@randalllogan7049]

I was looking for this exact vid. What are the synergetic relationships between the weapons and what will be a good combo of primary and secondary weapons. Liked and sub.

[@LordViettner]

appreciate it! Can confirm that the CB and Swaxe are deadly together, as well as DBs and Bow!

[@flisboac]

I just hope there won't be as many constantly-airborne fights (from the top of my head, from World: Rath species in general, Kushala Daora, Paolumu species when they decide to annoy you, etc.), so that I'm not forced to bring ranged weapons to a fight in order to keep my sanity. :D

[@thequasipancake4303]

I have a friend who is a devoted hammer main and she loves to use hammers with sleep or paralysis so I imagine she'll just be taking both on her hunts.

[@AlchemyEnjoyer-w9i]

Me personally. Switch axe gunlance. Switch axe is a hyper offensive weapon while gunlance provides deffense and a few shellings of kick ass. Mostly I wanted use my favorite weapon (switch axe) and something to use the new clash mechanic on and gunlance looks really fun

[@CarlosGonzalez-lc8tu]

Im curious about how armor will work when switching between melee and ranged since your def is supposed to go down

[@DavySilverwind]

Thinking sword and shield, with shield and sword, or possibly dual blades. 4 weapons is better than 2!

[@flisboac]

Dual Blades paired with Blades Dual is goated. 4 Blades are better than 2. Beyblading to the max

[@JeannieLove]

Samurai mains, let's go! After the story is done, I'll start switching it up with Charge Blade and Gunlance.

[@Minejokey]

my combination will be SnS + HH both are perfect because i like to play the supportive role hh for buffs and ko sns for mounts and heals slapping widerange with mushroommancer or speedeating will be WILD

[@Siege_Panda]

Sleep Hammer + Paralyze Greatsword. Bash em in the head till they fall asleep, and wake em up with the Greatsword until they spaz out with paralysis

[@nameputhpong9041]

As a Quick Sheathe Longsword Nudist, i don’t even know what i’ll need two weapons for.

[@LordViettner]

xD

[@JFlowZen]

was thinking switchaxe and chargeblade but also switch axe with everything

[@danwoods8195]

status DB AND Different STATUS DB beat that bro.

[@Ser0z]

I think a good combo is Hammer LS because longsword covers all of hammers weaknesses

[@B52BoomStick]

For me right now I want to do gunalnce and hunting horn. Simply the 2 I'm most excited for. I'm a gl main but the second surprised me a bit.

[@themeow-sician1664]

I will main lbg and probably have a CB or Hammer as a secondary weapon

[@peterduprey7286]

I’ll be using switch axe and insect glaive with power prolonger. Also if rapid morph does come back, I hope they nerf it. It felt mandatory in Rise.

[@fearsomecell7451]

Great Sword and bow is what im gonna start with

[@nicholascottingham8360]

Ive been watching your channel since World, you deserve 100k subs... Your extensive weapon tutorials are fantastic,I'm a charge blade main as well. So I always come here first 🥇 during each monster Hunter game

appreciate it! can't wait to get cooking with MH Wilds :D

[@JiggyNegus]

IMPACT PHIAL CHARGED BLADE WITH STICKY HBG!!! BIG BADA BOOM!!

[@bunkflunk]

I was thinking glaive bow as well, maybe also glaive hbg

[@Gokuroro]

Pokeboom combo (Lance+Gunlance)

[@TheDarknessVL]

I am going to do HBG/SNS And my second combo is GS/LBG

[@LeviGothymn]

Hunting Horn/Gun Lance

[@TerraRuns]

I think the second weapon should be chosen by the first weapon and his matchups. Bow for example was focused as an elemental weapon same as DBs. MHW sadly messed up to properly integrate elemental setups for most weapons so it’s suboptimal for many weapons to use elements in the first place which will hopefully change. However assuming from what we learned from world (especially endgame) will it be the best case if you manage to compensate you’re weapon matchups with the second weapon to give you the feeling you’re main weapon is stronger. we also don’t know if there are new mechanics which changes the damage taken by the Hunter. Many endgame monsters in world are mostly raw based ( so in my case as a bow main not the best scenario) and I assume we’re gonna have more situations where we are forced to react on the fly. Good example is Namielle. Namielle is weak against fire but loses that weakness once it’s dry. Change the weapon and change the attack. I can just imagine how good GS/Bow should work since they are prob the heaviest counterpart I could imagine for.

[@flisboac]

Too much "you're" (also known as "you are") being used where "your" should be. Kinda hard to read your comment, but I understand, and agree, in part. Elemental damage should indeed make more of a difference in terms of damage and viability. However, I still hope raw damage can also continue being a viable default option, because having to make a dozen builds for each element, main weapon, secondary weapon AND target monster combination will be a nightmare.

[@TerraRuns]

@@flisboac learning the hitzonvalues and knowing how exactly each monster with an element interacts should be more rewarding for sure but that wasn’t my point. It’s rather about the difference between raw and elements since weapons have still there matchups in there own case. Adjusting you’re bad matchups with a second weapon is basically the goal. Everyone that played 1000s of hours with there main weapon can easily explain what kind of problems they have depending on the matchup/ monster so it will be a goal to compensate that with you’re second weapon of choice. I tried to explain the difference bc of my previous example with bow and greatsword since they matchup completely different and manage to compensate each others weaknesses very well.

[@flisboac]

@@TerraRuns Agreed. But considering the hunts will be more "open" (i.e. you just run into the monster in the map, and the hunt begins), I wonder how much such a preparation would be applicable in the field. If you're going to hunt different monsters, you'll eventually need to swap sets, but how do you ensure the set is correct if the hunt just "happens"? If the Forbidden Lands' mission system is similar to how how the Guiding Lands operate, then, in between each hunt, you just go back to "base" (for any definition of it) and "lure" a monster, or accept a hunt request and the monster magically appears in the map afterwards. If it's that easy to ensure a good matchup, then your suggestion makes a lot of sense. But well, there're a lot of pre-hunt preparations that are quite uncertain for me. But in general, I agree with you.

[@12463trf]

SNS and HBG, horrible skill synergy, but comcines shortest range wpn with longest range wpn. Can make use of raw, ele, slice, impact, shot types, ranged, melee, explosions, item tricks. A feels good vibe that lets me basically do anything.😂

[@timothy6583]

Probably go hunting horn for secondary seems like the best thing to bring in a hunt Why go two Dps if you could just bring a utility weapon instead

valid xD i do that tho bc if i truly were to say "these are the BEST" some people would complain that they think theirs is the best, whereas if I leave it a little open ended, people will share their combos without being upset/bothered that I didn't pick theirs

@@LordViettner nothing wrong with that, just a playful jab. im excited to see what weapon combos work well together too.

@@LordViettner it’s the only reason I can play bow since it made you so tanky and super comfy without relying on dash pots/stamina pots (with strife of course) I wonder if armor sets wise if it would be the same as usual? Like if you’re using range weapons you tend to take more damage vs using melee? Or will it be the same?

Longsword has to stand on its own because it only needs damage and thats about it. No synergy or whatever with other weapons 😂 I refuse to use the hunting horn just for buffing. Would feels like cheating to me 😅 I think i will use simply 2 longswords to have more sharpness. Sharpening both can be done while riding to another Location for when the Monster flees.

[@fishnutz5196]

Longsword has snergy with Greatsword, Hammer and SnS. Hammer and SnS aswell as LS just require damage sets. And things like Focus and Quick Sheath benefit LS and GS. Now just imagine we got frostcraft with a LS GS combo (unlikely)
