Afew friends of mine have been trying to get me into the game, Playing the demo I really couldn't make my mind up on all the weapons. But I have to say, this is an INCREDIBLE channel you have here. It's really helpful, you talk in a polite and friendly way, explaining everything so it's useful to both newbies and advance players without sounding patronizing, and over all very well constructed! So, Thank you very much for creating this content!
i remember a hunt against a brute tigrex I charged at him, he charged at me, I jumped and managed to hit him and started a mount. I felt like I stopped a train with a kick.
Another advanced tidbit is while holding guard you can recover stamina with the poke which allows you to keep your guard up for a longer period of time if needed. I use this more against multiple monsters when they both are attacking at the sametime as a counter may actually get you hit by the 2nd monster. One last thing, Lances are dual damage type wepons in the game (gun lances may be as well, but I don't use them). They hit as blunt or cutting damage depending on what the part being hit is weak to. Lances are far more offensive than some believe.
Great guide! You immediately get into the details and don't ramble, and go through everything at a great pace. As lame as this comment sounds, I see reviewers droning on all the time. Subscribed.
i absolutely love when weapon shield combos have a shield bash attack. and especially if the shield bash (it doesn't have to do a lot of actual damage) does some form of stun. so this. This game. absolutely awesome
Not to be that guy. But one thing you forgot to mention is that you can do a reverse slash while charging...I think by pressing back on the analog and x (or a).
Damn I didn't know this game had so much depth! I purchased this game yesterday and I'm only 3 hours in. So far I've only used basic X and A attacks and some blocking. Thanks for showing me how to fully enjoy my lance
Caravan quests are done (aside from the Caravaneer's Challenge), and I'm on my HR7 urgent... I've only just recently gotten into using the lance... Mostly because Crimson Fatalis' lance is amazing, 322 raw dmg, 450 blast, purple sharpness (thanks to sharpness +1) and a 30% affinity. Using that with the Akantor HR set, you get the Sharpness +1, Critical Eye +2, and earplugs. Plus CRAZY fire resistance and fireblight is completely ineffectual! Gonna start practicing with the gun lance now, seems like it could be devestating!
Hoping some day they will make like a javelin weapon..... fast pokes. higher mobility then lance and no guard but the option to throw the javelin instead.
loving the improvements to the lance!! used to do LS and Lance, but since MH4U been doing IG and LS....maybe i should change that to IG and Lance now. that dash jump is the shit!
my tactic that I know works with the gunlance (but I'm not sure if it works with a normal which I will try later) is before I face a big monster, I drink a mega dash potion. my stamina doesn't go down so I can block almost ALL of the monster's attacks.
Two things, one is that lancemen are so important to have for tank-ing monsters while others attack. And two you forgot to mention that it does piercing damage which ignores most monsters defense or armor which is why they have lower attack power.
Guys this is my first monster hunter game, i reached end game g rank, i got bored and heard really good things about the lance, i have a question to do the counter i can do it some times but most of the time i keep doing the rush
Should have shown what evading looks like without the skills helping the backstep/sidestep. Kinda misleading to claim the Lance isn't slow and clunky while you also have the skills equipped that compensates for Lance's slow, clunky evasion.
I just made a set with evasion +3 and evade distance. What do you guys think is the best lance to use? so far I've got brachydios and the sleep lance, darkness I think it's called. Not maxed out yet
i think it evovled alot actually but i see what you mean. hopefully sunbreak adds some crazy shit to the lance. If you see what MHFZ did to the lance. omfg it has so many new mechanics.
How come when I see you do the sidestep and backstep, you travel a much greater distance than when I try it? I am using Blue Crater, and when I press B, my hunter barely moves.

TopHatCat Sooooooo... what weapon did you pick?
Reply after 6 years if you’re cool
Ahaha. Welp, only played for about a year but ended up with Hammer and S&S. Cringe 😅
CB was, is and still is my fav. Even after 7yrs. ,👍

Leonardo Lepore I know I’m late but that sounds cool af!

Ah yeah, good shout, I did forget to mention that, thanks for bringing it up! :)
no problem. Keep up the great work. been watching your vids since you started. :)
You also forgot that if you press r+x+a, you can do the lance charge on landing from a ledge
You’ve convinced me to try this weapon.

The bow fires javelin sized arrows

if you're standing still with your lance away, all you have to press to raise the shield is X and R, but all three if you're moving
YEAH!!! Another MH channel! You earned the sub. The up attack does slightly more damage BTW.

Fun fact monster hunter frontier lance jumping thrust was added in monster hunter 4 ultimate
Ahh the good old head locking days

For all the other weapons in weapon training i only needed 2 min but with this thing 10 damn minutes
I'm trying to sidestep, but when I input a direction, it makes me turn before I can.
what's your favorite mh4u weapon
Hmm the side evade has longer distance, that should really come in handy.
My main thanks to you is the lance thank you 😁
What would be a good armor set for the Lance? I have just reached rank 2
Welp, it's the closest I'll get to a spear type weapon... (Capcom pls)
lance is very forgiving of armored monsters as well
Guys this is my first monster hunter game, i reached end game g rank, i got bored and heard really good things about the lance, i have a question to do the counter i can do it some times but most of the time i keep doing the rush
Can you do the gun lance next?
Yep! That's next on the list, that'll go up on Sunday :)
Another way to make the lance faster is evade+ skill
I'm torn between this and the Gunlance, can anyone help me out?
do you know how to get monoblos heart?

*facepalms* I don't care if this is late, this comment is dumb.
I only have Monster Hunter 3 and I don't have a pro controller so does anybody have tips to help use the Wiimote?
What about dodging?
b is to evade, if thats what youre asking
4zij I mean that he forgot to say something about dodging, and that you can reverse nearly every attack with it.
Mr. Largee he said you can counter
Tommy Vang Of course you can!
Tommy Vang Attack while evading? Wait, when have I said that? You can dodge and riposte nearly every atteck, like tail whip or roaring.
I like this weapon but when i tried it i couldnt dash in direction i wanted to.
I just made a set with evasion +3 and evade distance. What do you guys think is the best lance to use? so far I've got brachydios and the sleep lance, darkness I think it's called. Not maxed out yet
What lance are you using in this video?
Crimson fatalis
thanks so much!
+Tantrum Turtwig It's monoblos.
u both said different things
im gonna go with dolphin man...
+Tantrum Turtwig Dolphin man? I'm offended...
jk lol
What lance is that?
The Man With No Soul Crimson lance. You get it from the Monoblose. Upgrade it as soon as possible though it's first stage sucks
It really hasn’t evolved much even in rise… it’s kinda sad to see it left behind in the future
i think it evovled alot actually but i see what you mean. hopefully sunbreak adds some crazy shit to the lance. If you see what MHFZ did to the lance. omfg it has so many new mechanics.
long sword
Hunting Horn!!!!
How come when I see you do the sidestep and backstep, you travel a much greater distance than when I try it? I am using Blue Crater, and when I press B, my hunter barely moves.
WelcomeToTheSlam He probably had the evade extender skill. It extends the distance you move when you evade.
He should have talked about evade lancing and guard lancing styles
Do hunting horn :D
That'll be out next week - just finishing Gunlance first then Horn is up. Then it's on to ranged weapons :3
Console?
nintendo 3ds
:o
YES finally!
