Jyura or kulu greaves would be better since peak performance is only when you are at full health, the jyura greaves give focus off rip which charges your spirit faster which allows for more dps and the crit eye from kulu greaves gives 10 affinity at only grade 2
I'm currently playing Hr47 with an arch rifle, but after this video I'm thinking about starting to play with a long sword, and this build honestly caught my attention and seems to be very good.
gonna say if u want want weakness exploit u need lock on, so a better build is kulu head(lock on AND crit), rath body, kulu arms(extra affinity for higher chances to crit) or kadachi arm(dodge), lumu waist(tanking dmg) or rath waist(focus), and kulu legs(same as kulu arms) or jyura legs(focus) edit: now the hands can be replaced by ping rath (2 levels of crit) and u can use whatever hands u like
also raw dmg are not that good end game bc its like 60/2000 attack increase which is little compare to crit where it times ur dmg by 25% eg.100x1.25=125
@@piplup4752 its good but do note that ur not getting crit every hit so either ur gonna sacrifice some of ur armor for critical eye so u can have a higher chance of getting crit, the base dmg is decent too
How does First Dance compare to the new long sword Hard Bone Shotel? I have grade 6 hard bone shotel and not sure if i need to shift using first dance. If i use kulu head and greaves i can get 20% affinity, maybe that can compensate
I'm playing the same build, but with the Kulu legs for crit. Feels more "grindable" when doing a walk, i'm not that good to be always full hp, so Anja legs dont make that much sense for me.
game is not bad honestly I thought I would uninstall it after a day like I did with Pokémon go but I've been playing since launch and it's a fun lil game to pop into when I'm out
Might just pick up Long sword. I always loved the bow gun in all MH games but currently stuck on Diablos story quest cus none of the monsters I need appear where I’m at. Especially Legiana so i can make Ice smh. I’m still tryna git gud with the Girros Greatsword i made for Diablos.
Long Sword is coll, but bow it where it's at. It deals so much damage. I wanted to make rathian LS to replace my Kulu grade 3 (lv5/5), but i could not kill rathian, had to upgrade kulu to G4 (lv2/5). Then i decided to try pukei bow G3 (lv2/5) and it was way easier, even managed to poison rathian. So with the bow i farmed enought to craft both Rathian LS and Bow, but might just stay on bow, especially when i dont need lock-on skill for it.
Lmao I'm HR36 and nowhere near rank 6 Last Dance, as I just upgraded to 2/5 on rank 5. Immediately at the outset of the game I saw longsword as the second best solo weapon with a higher ceiling for damage than SnS, so as soon as I saw Last Dance was the only one with crit chance and no element, I fully invested.
Highest damage ceiling currently belongs to bow. LS is second but the gap is still there especially for fire element (bow’s strongest element currently). Sns is at the very bottom and gets hardgated at 8 stars and beyond due to insufficient dps
@@bobbyerico9962 Exactly, second best solo weapon, behind bow. With a higher ceiling for damage than SnS (Pukei sword early deletes monsters and I was still fighting 4* monsters when I posted this). I am now fighting 6* monsters and don't plan to change cuz I for one, dislike the bows, and for two, love the timing element of the longsword because it allows me to play high dps, aggressive melee combat whilst not wasting precious potions.
I'm enjoying this game. I hope we get a tool or seeker flies that can target out specific monsters in your area. Similar to what pokemon go does to find rocket league trainers. So I can't wait.
I'm currently wearing kulu + tobi kadachi for level 4 evade extender. Question, does evade extender helps with better succession with iai slash because i can't really see the difference at the moment
Why was the first hit at 11:58 red instead of white or yellow. It was sometimes on Pukei Pukei too. Is this maybe the effect for Weakness Exploit? It can‘t be Burst, because on the Jagra it was your first hit. 🔴🗡️ Edit: It can‘t be Weakness Exploit too, I‘m also doing the red damages, but I don‘t have Rathalos armor.
According to the MHN FAQ, the yellow numbers mean you either hit a weak spot, or hit the monster with an elemental attack that it's weak against. Red numbers mean you hit the weak spot with the elemental attack, which doesn't always happen since the elemental weapon doesn't do elemental damage with every single attack. A vertical red slash animation means you got a critical hit.
Man I’ve been farming these darn kulu yakus non stop and I only have 1/4 of the primescale … I’m HR 39 because I’ve farmed them so much … ffs. Gotta fight 6 stars with a grade 4 sword. Pain in my ass
I forget when 5* starts I think it’s when you go against legiana but 6* starts at ch15 which is the end then you cycle through the chapters again for 7* + each cycle is one star ranking I believe. the cycles are more difficult with more monsters/resources needed plus higher star urgents
To be honest this is how ideal in building your character. There is no sense in beagle to fly though without the work and the niuld up to the top has been exceptionally done well even if it feels slow. Trust me I've killed monsters over and over trying to get parts I need and although it can be annoying. At the same time it's satisfying and worth it. I'd hate to already be maxed out etc. Then be waiting until another update. Like I said I think it's fair and how it should be going.
daym, my account are literally premature with all the useless weapon i craft cause of trying to fine the "one" HAHHAA. XD. cant even defeat *6 legi/tobikadachi yet even with elemental weakness weapon (still using grade 4 weapon kek)

I finally finished this build and I am shredding through monsters now. This is making the farm way easier.
I’m glad it helped.

im planning on crafting rathalos greaves and ditch my kulu greave for weakness exploit , is it worth it?
Nope, because that's only 5% more crit when kulu gives 10%

That was a critical hit. Which you get with affinity

my build has 40% affinity for now..mix set of kulu(crit eye) and anju(sp boost)

Stupid question why not go for focus? I thought that would also add dmg or not?
focus just let u charge the bar faster, focus is used for bow and hammer
@@qwzcr yes and I thought that long sword does more DMG with a full bar and let you execute combos
@@janlowenbruck6654 i dont think it does
@@janlowenbruck6654 even if it does, the time diff is small so there's no reason for u to get focus unless ur spamming the special attack thing

I still use the kulu leg for critical eye .. extra 10% chance crit is a good opt for one who have bad phone 😅
Oh my the same with my build, but still on grade 5 ls
Weather has been so crappy this week. Rain everyday. Tough to get out an play. I'm stuck on rathian.
THX for Longsword Build i will follow you
I just slam all attack boost from upper body and waist from diablos pairing with kulu pants for crit
You guys having trouble with purple stars as melee?
Not after upgrading my gear
Hey guys! What chapter/s in the story can we unlock 5*/ 6*/7* of monsters? Does anyone know yet? Thanks in advance!
I forget when 5* starts I think it’s when you go against legiana but 6* starts at ch15 which is the end then you cycle through the chapters again for 7* + each cycle is one star ranking I believe. the cycles are more difficult with more monsters/resources needed plus higher star urgents
5* starts on rathian urgent quest
I finally got the Iron Katana LS to the orange tier. The rng for materials is pretty bad. I get earth crystals when I need dragonite and vice-versa.
Yeah, they need to increase it.
To be honest this is how ideal in building your character.

They should introduce the overkill in honor of your build (for extra parts of course). Powerful af bro lol
How do you get legiana webbing?
You have to hunt a lot of Legiana for it to drop.
Kulu mats lv2 are a pain in the ass to get

Long sword makes this game so fun😂
I love it
i want to play from my home this game!!!!
sheesh im still on two star monsters
The grind continues, cause we're getting decos in the next update
Wait really?!
" always gonna be RAW "
thats what she said...
Ayo
The affinity build is bad because I don't want to spend more materials uploading it hahaha
the best way to farm is dont get hit lol😅
No focus?? Whattttt
On a Longsword?!! Naa connect with Iai slash to build faster
I’m loving this game but man I’m no where near your level lol
All good man, that's why I make these guides. So by the time you all get to that level you have a place to start with builds.
14 if you count black dioblos
