weird that i haven’t seen anyone praise the fact that you can just setup a training area wherever you want. that’s a nice touch for an open zone title, not always having to go through a loading zone, etc.
I'm wondering if you could set up a training dummy right next to a monster for extra meter build on a weapon like the katana or staff. For, like, scripted Speedrun style hunts.
6:30 The charge time for Sheathed Nodachi vs Attacking Nodachi are actually slower or faster depending on what you are doing. If you aren't moving while charging, the charge for Sheathed Nodachi is faster than the charge for Attacking Nodachi. If you are moving while charging, the charge for Sheated Nodachi is slower than Attacking Nodachi. Also, the attacking animations are kind of long and can't be canceled or dodged out of when getting attacked causing you to lose whatever charge you gained. The best way, in my opinion, to play it is to mainly use Sheathed Charging so you can dodge and make springs to keep your charge going without getting hit (springs give you s when jumping from them as well as refilling stamina). Then use Attacking Nodachi when the monster is toppled or immobile to get extra damage while also building your charge for the big hit. After the big hit on a fallen or immobile kemono, you can immediately go back to charging animation and do Attacking Nodachi again so you can get off alot of damage and 2 big hits before you need to let stamina refill.
The Karakuri Staff has me REALLY interested (coincidentally, I'm a CB main lol) because two of its forms are literally weapons that I've been thinking that could be added to MH: The Staff and a "Boomerang" (in this case, a big ass shuriken). Whenever the discussion about new weapons shows up, I always talk about this two. A Staff could be a quick blunt weapon, while the boomerang could be either blunt or slash, but the important part is that it could be an actual mix between a melee and a ranged weapon, and Wild Hearts just shows up outta nowhere with these 2 weapons added! NOW I'm really interested in trying this game out and this'll probably be my main weapon, it's definitely the one that picked my interest the most, followed by thhe Bladed Wagasa. Using an umbrella as a weapon is just too good to pass on!
The Wasaga and staff are the two weapons I'm really gravitating towards. I usually go for the weapons that are more unique to that specific game, like the insect glaive in Monster Hunter.
With the Bow, it's probably better to use two crates instead of three. The Charge level is tied to crate height, so 2 crates puts you in Charge lv1 which immediately lets you use the rapid fire option instead of arc. Additionally it doesn't propel you as far back, allowing you to land back on the boxes to continue the loop. It works especially well on toppled monsters, allowing you to fit 2-3 explosions into a single topple; although there's still some consideration for maybe a level 2 vertical charge to explode, as it does more damage outright.
Honestly I prefer the arc. It's actually not hard to aim at all. The secret is that you don't try to aim to land the arrows as they rain down. Instead, you aim way *past* the monster, so that the arc of the arrows just hits the monster directly. You put way more arrows in the monster this way than using the first charge level.
I'll be honest, I've never liked hammers but seeing your happy face after you did the first big bonk made me extremely happy for some reason. Thanks Ruri, even if I'm not going to use the hammer, just that reaction right there made me play this game
As a charge blade main, the karakuri staff will definitely have a special place in my arsenal. Something about the amount of versatility makes it quite enticing. Although the bladed wagasa is a close second place due to the mobility and the parry mechanic.
That intro was hilarious, more bits like that please xD Especially when Ruri said "they'll never see me coming!" the Persona 5 song popped into my head.
For nodachi you can jump on spring while charging and release it mid air and use it like iai slash (with higher damage). with this mechanic you can charge then spawn the spring, jump and release it midair. With sidestep skill (you can get from eating, or inherent/inherited on gears) you can do more parry with wagasa (have more stamina). So far I mostly use Wagasa, but change weapons occasionally, all the weapons have interesting mechanics.
@@sparrowfox6943 Although I consider myself mainly a CB user, I can't say i'm that interested in the Karakuri staff since it just seems like trying to juggle 4-5 different weapon forms feels tedious. Plus, the lack of a shield kinda makes me lose interest. Maybe Swaxe main would enjoy that weapon more, but i can't say i'm invested until i actually handle the thing. I think i'm torn between the wagasa and the claw blades mainly but the nagisa, ,katana, bow, and cannon are all weapons I'm really interested in using rather than just trying.
Love the staff, by far my favorite! Each combo into the r2 upgrades the bar by one, but using basic karakuri like the box, spring etc into the r2 upgrades the meter by 2 bars. It's a fun weapon!!!
I haven't had a chance to watch all of your coverage of WH so far, but I've liked what I've seen. Apologies if this has already been answered, but my big questions are: How is co-op? How is crossplay? I love playing MH with other folks (even if they are just randos), and wondering how WH compares. Thanks for all that you do, Ruri!
@@ChuckLorrismultiplayer got a lot better the second day once all consoles got on the same version. We seem to have similar MH play styles and I’m loving the game now we’ve gotten 2 updates
Cannon is my favorite. Probably not the greatest dps of the weapons or anything, but I cannot resist giant lasers. The bladed wagasa part actually made the weapon look much more appealing. I was under the impression you had to consistently parry actual attacks to reliably build the gauge, since normal attacks did so little. I wasn't aware that parrying and then attacking used a different moveset that filled the gauge faster. That makes it a LOT more usable, even if you might struggle to parry actual attacks.
I am curious about the staff, but I’m a lance main and insta block is my baby so the umbrella might be a better play style for me. All of the weapons look fun though. I’m going to eventually try them all
As a charge blade main I want to like the Karakuri Staff, but the thing I like about Charge Blade is that its different forms actually fill different purposes and needs. Sword and Board mode is more defensive with guard points and improved mobility, while Axe mode has big damaging combos in exchange for being more vulnerable. Meanwhile with the staff while it does visually have 4 different base forms, they're not really functionally any different from each other, they all just do a series of rapid hits with only maybe the shuriken appearing to fill a different role of having the longest reach, but even then you're directly incentivized to not really stick with one form for too long seeing as you gain charge by transforming rather than actually landing hits. So the actual playstyle of the weapon is just continually attack and transform between all the different base forms interchangeably, and then you use the Colossal Blade as a finisher, which means it's not even really its own form it's just a super attack. It's a weapon that looks super flashy and comes off as way more complicated than it really is. If you ignore the visual aspect of the weapon and just think of the moves, it's just a weapon with a bunch of fast hitting moves that you need to time a button press with to build meter, and then you can do another kind of move to spend all your built up meter. And while that may appeal to some, I personally don't think it strikes the same nerve as Charge Blade does to me even though that's what everyone compares it to.
Before the video: Hammer. It's my main weapon in Monster Hunter and I generally like hammers in video games. After the video: Claw Blades. One of the few weapons that I like even more than Hammers are claws and those look pretty dang snazzy.
I went into it thinking I would only really be interested in the karakuri staff, and I still am, but the bow, grapple blade, and the umbrella are all up there as well
My current picks are probably the Bladed Wagasa > Karakuri Staff > Claw Blade. I'm still very much on the fence about this game, though, due to the lack in armor variety visually and the weapons seem very repetitive, like you're just repeating the same three moves all hunt in the same order. I really wish they would've released a demo, especially with the game costing so much money.
i definitly intend on checking out this game. from the video the weapons i got most interested in playing were the katana, the umbrela, the claw and the staff. ill have to try for myself to chose a favourite
Okay, so as for what weapon I will using in this game: Before watching: Just the katana After watching: The katana and the staff As a switch axe main, how could not pick up the staff after seeing its moveset?
I have not changed my mind, the Nodachi and the Karakuri staff are what I'm mostly interested in from the start. However, hearing you praise the Bladed Wagasa has reignited me interest in it. It was the weapon I liked the most before the reveal of the staff and Nodachi.
Before playing I honestly thought I would want to play katana but then I used the staff and saw big bonkers damage and decided on that I also want to start using the bladed wagasa to force myself to master monsters completely, even though I feel wagasa is lacking for the amount of work to maintain the gauge and constantly output damage
I thought I'd be an umbrella main but damn those all seem like awesome choices. Cannon seemed pretty meh but then Ruri pulled the "IMMA FIRIN MAH LASER!" And my eyes went wide. Can't wait to play me some Wonster Hunter.
Wagasa will be the weapon that I will main because it's the closest thing we have to blocking and I had a hard time with the timing on the parry for the training dummy the first time around
As a Long Sword main, either the katana, nodachi, or umbrella! Probably will start with Katana and then venture out to the nodachi/umbrella and see what clicks
Definitely gonna keep playing the umbrella until I unlock the karakuri staff and then I'm probably gonna alternate. Claw Blade and Hand Cannon also look very appealing.
Karakuri staff is gonna have all of my attention when i get it, i love weapons that transform too much to not go for that even if i have to learn some timing for it.
I tend to prefer faster hitting weapons just because I feel like they're slightly more consistent. I was mostly interested in the katana and wagasa, but I think I may land on the claw blade. Just being able to have that level of mobility around the monster seems amazing
The hammer and umbrella look fun to me. I'll try the staff too, but honestly it doesn't look too impressive to me. That looks like a really straight forward and simple approach to a 4-5 in one style of weapon. Like, it's seems to just be a just use morph attacks to build meter, with one definitive combo for all situations style weapon. The staff definitely looks the coolest, but it might not be for me
bow, I started rise with long sword (didn't like it much) swap to dual blades, over 200 hundred hunts with them, then, just by Borden, I tried Gunlance, fall in love with the weapon, then I watch some random stuff in tictok, a montage with bow, after 100 hunts, it became my favorite weapon, so yeah, in this game, bow actually requires skill, still broken as hell (my dudes, you can pull a 2000 combo with low rank bow in this game, that's insane) my secondary would the umbrella, for a very dumm reason, I like umbrellas XD
I thought I'd end up going with the greatsword or hammer at the start of the video, but maaaan - you've sold me on the umbrella. It's a parry weapon. It's basically Lance with Glaive's aerials and Longsword's gauge management. SIGN ME UP.
I'm 100% trying the umbrella first. I have a feeling though that I'll be way more effective with either Nodachi or the Maul as I am a Hammer and GS main in Monster Hunter. Bow and Cannon look pretty awesome too.
I've been thinking of playing the cannon mostly, and maybe the big bonk, but you might have convinced me to also try out the katana and the claw blade!
I spent over an hour with each weapon at the training dummy to see if I could use anything other than the katana. I couldn't get anywhere near the dps with any weapon like the katana. the bow was a close second and the great sword 3rd. the hammer mega combo was so hard for me to nail regularly. so frustrating how tight that activation window is on the combos.
i was a little bummed out when i found out the wagasa was a parry focused weapon but that combo you did on a "failed" parry gave you a big chunck of bar and makes it seem like you dont have to parry to get the bar up when you can just spam that attack
Differently from MH where I actually dislike using some weapons (like the bow and the IG), the eight WH weapons are all interesting and I can see myself messing around with all of them. I'm not able to play this game but just from the looks of it I would say my favourite one could be either the cannon or the maul
First time seeing your content and really enjoyed this video! It’s definitely pushed me closer to checking out Wild Hearts. The claw blade took first spot for me with the wagasa a fairly close second. I love status effect and immobilization / out maneuvering fight styles, though. Like, I could do the Chun-Li head stomp as my only attack for the rest of my life and probably never get tired of it. 😂
Before watching: hammer Insect glaive main in me after watching: attack on titan/umbrella. Though they all look fun in their own right. I feel like the staff has too many forms, which maybe cheapens every sub weapon as a whole? Like you just want to cycle as fast as possible for the nuke. It would of been cool if different staffs had 2/4 forms? Idk i guess I'll find out when i play.
I still don't know if to get this game (cause I got Rise) but if I do, I'm between the katana, umbrella or the staff. More inclined for the staff to be honest cause like the idea of morphing weapons like bloodborne.
Umbrella or morph stick. Ever since I saw them in teasers I've been wanting to try them out. I'm a little disappointed that the Mary Poppins weapon is the tryhard parry weapon though.
weird that i haven’t seen anyone praise the fact that you can just setup a training area wherever you want. that’s a nice touch for an open zone title, not always having to go through a loading zone, etc.

@@misterbranches4362 You can build anything anywhere more or less, but the monster would destroy it, if it happened to hit it
This game is full of false promises devs make in promo videos, except this game delivers them all.
Always plannin to swig with the umbrella, but as a CB main, ill take the staff as a second main
23:43 finally a game weapon that lets me play as what I identify as: an attack helicopter

Loving the coverage. The opening skits never hurt either. Keep up the good work.
The transforming staff looks wild. I feel like they could have easily spilt 2 of the forms into a whole other weapon type.
Staff and Spear separate would make so much sense.
Like Tonfa and Shuriken as the other one.
Not sure how to switch up the "Ultimate"
@@Sircedantwo different ultimates think about it 🤩
I wish the Shuriken mode was its own thing would be a fun close/mid range weapon.
How do u get the staff?
@@dedricdavies9013 you have to play the story.

I wanted to play the Bladed Wagasa, because i like the aerial playstyle and your video just confirmed my pick.
Definitely gonna use the staff it’s basically a charge blade, switch axe fusion.
As a Charge Blade main and a Glaive sub, all this weapons looks dope!!!
For nodachi you can jump on spring while charging and release it mid air and use it like iai slash (with higher damage). with this mechanic you can charge then spawn the spring, jump and release it midair.

So far I mostly use Wagasa, but change weapons occasionally, all the weapons have interesting mechanics.
As a switch axe main in MH, you will be missed in Wild Hearts.
Also a Swaxe main and the staff that transforms looks really interesting to me. It was the first weapon that had me say "I want to play that"
Honestly I feel like the swaxe and Charge Blade users are going to be the ones to try out the staff the most

on pc you could pay one month subscription to ea to try the game. Otherwise just wait for it to be discounted in a month
For the bow you can also use the glider instead of the boxes for the same effect

Imma be using either the umbrella or the staff although the cannon and the katana looks dope too.
Ok, I was going for the umbrella. Looked fun and I love the parrying system… then I saw the canon and my heart was stolen.
Was a bow main in 4U, world and rise. I'm still a bow main, some things never change
That intro was hilarious ruri :))
I like going with the Mary Popins weapon very fun still haven’t even scratched mastering it
I still want to try the bow BUT greatsword looks cool and I never thought I'd say I'm excited to fight with an umbrella!
Every weapon looks super satisfying to use i cant wait to get my hands on the game. Hopefully they fix the performance issues.
I love the bow and claw blade. Haven't really clicked with anything else.
Okay, so as for what weapon I will using in this game:
Before watching: Just the katana
After watching: The katana and the staff
As a switch axe main, how could not pick up the staff after seeing its moveset?
The staff looks fun as hell. I think I'll be doing that and the Wagasa for the "parry" mechanic.
Well clearly Maul is the one for me because at 11:02 I said out loud "BIG BONK" right before Rurikhan did.
Holy crap, all the weapons looks amazing..I;m gonna have to try them all
I have not changed my mind, the Nodachi and the Karakuri staff are what I'm mostly interested in from the start. However, hearing you praise the Bladed Wagasa has reignited me interest in it. It was the weapon I liked the most before the reveal of the staff and Nodachi.
Top notch intro, as always
He just likes saying "Karakuri."

I thought I'd be an umbrella main but damn those all seem like awesome choices. Cannon seemed pretty meh but then Ruri pulled the "IMMA FIRIN MAH LASER!" And my eyes went wide. Can't wait to play me some Wonster Hunter.
wonster hunter 😂
The katana, claw blade, and staff are gonna be my go-to melee weapons. I'll definitely pick up both bow and cannon.
Wagasa will be the weapon that I will main because it's the closest thing we have to blocking and I had a hard time with the timing on the parry for the training dummy the first time around
thank you for making this video Ruri! I'm coming over from MH so need to learn all these weapon types haha! :)
Man I got to say it, I am loving these intros!
For Bow, using Helicoptor box or Spring box is better than using three boxes.
As a Long Sword main, either the katana, nodachi, or umbrella! Probably will start with Katana and then venture out to the nodachi/umbrella and see what clicks
Went in thinking the Nodachi or the Karakuri Katana would be my pick, but the Bladed Wagasa really surprised me!
Definitely gonna keep playing the umbrella until I unlock the karakuri staff and then I'm probably gonna alternate. Claw Blade and Hand Cannon also look very appealing.
For me, it looks like a 3 way split between the Maul, the Karakuri Staff, and the Karakuri Katana (renji to blame for that one Lol).
Karakuri staff is gonna have all of my attention when i get it, i love weapons that transform too much to not go for that even if i have to learn some timing for it.
Went in thinking Karakuri Staff, mind remains unchanged. Tho I'm interested in Claw Blade, a bit.

As a Hammer AND Great Sword main. Maul and Nodachi will get my attention first.
Fast attacks, parries and a buff bar that amps your damage... is Rurikhan a longsword main now?
Today i started playing via Eaplay, and have to say the umbrella is now fav even though i am really bad with the parry system

As a S&S main in MH I'm sad there's no sword & board so I'll probably go claw main and bow secondary.
Before watching: hammer
Insect glaive main in me after watching: attack on titan/umbrella. Though they all look fun in their own right. I feel like the staff has too many forms, which maybe cheapens every sub weapon as a whole? Like you just want to cycle as fast as possible for the nuke. It would of been cool if different staffs had 2/4 forms? Idk i guess I'll find out when i play.
I thought I was going to want to use the claw blade. But now I’m thinking imma use either the staff or the umbrella
Bow looks so cool!
Still planning to go staff but I think I can better use any weapon after watching
Katana, Staff, Maul, Nodachi. These are NICE but bow and wagasa may be nice too idk
i thought I'd only be interested in the katana but the staff and umbrella are now added to that list mostly staff ngl
I was going for the bladed Wagasa, but i can´t parry at all... guess i´ll go claw blade
idk why but i thought that shelf behind was gonna get kicked down with that umbrella lmao
I still don't know if to get this game (cause I got Rise) but if I do, I'm between the katana, umbrella or the staff. More inclined for the staff to be honest cause like the idea of morphing weapons like bloodborne.
Ok after this vid i pretty much like all of them but ill start with two weapons like katana and staff first then the main the rest
Umbrella or morph stick. Ever since I saw them in teasers I've been wanting to try them out. I'm a little disappointed that the Mary Poppins weapon is the tryhard parry weapon though.
This is the first hunting game I have picked up the bow for (MH1 vet). did you know you can eternally charge attacks if you jump back onto a box.
I refuse to watch any weapon tutorial that doesn't have Ruri's sound effects, 10/10
I'm getting bloodborne feels from weapon transformations and timings
The umbrella then the katana.
