Somehow, nobody talk about the new charge move of the long sword. Instead of going through the spirit combo, you can also simply hold R2 at any point to charge. At max charge, you get spirit roundslash right away. This is as little faster than going through the combo and doesn’t require any spirit gauge.
I'm just glad there's more reason to stay in red gauge. In World, it always felt like I was just shortcutting to the red gauge for spirit helmbreaker and not caring about at all about the attack buff especially since it never lasted long
I haven't used longsword much since Unite. I play all weapons a little bit, but not enough to be great with them. Longsword has been stupid fun in the beta though. Between it and sword and shield, I may have found my weapon pairing.
LS is a really unique and complex weapon, i wish more people would play it so everybody can grasp the awesomeness of this underrated piece of art. By far my favorite weapon in the game
Question for you: If you use Iai slash at red gauge and immediately use spirit thrust, Helm Breaker, and Spirit Release Slash you should now be at white gauge with near full gauge, but is Iai slash's regen buff still active or did helm breaker/Spirit Release Slash deactivate it? If Iai regen is still active will that plus Spirit Release Slash's meter fill be enough to do 2 Spirit Blade combos without any basic attacks? Because that would be a really strong loop. Even if you have to do one Spirit Blade combo and Iai Slash again before doing Spirit Blade combo #2 That is still a very clean rotation. Also, does only Iai slash give the regen buff, or does Iai Spirit Slash give it too?

I know right. No one is mentioning it despite it being so useful.
You lose some damage and the tempo is all you do is charge haha.

I'm going to show this to my LS main cousins & frens 😃 Thank you for the nice guide, Tera! 👌🙏
You could say this has been a LONG time coming
I'm speechless
Really happy for the changes they made and I cant wait to give it a spin in a day and a half!
This is so helpful thank you!! Sword and shield guide next? 😍
liked for the 3rd Strike music
well done
sad that no info on hold r2 stance (spirit charge i guess?) and usage of focus mode and gauge upgrade with wound strikes
nice video though, thx
The swaxe will always be
My number one but I’ll give the LS a try for fun

I think you missed the holding R2 for instant gauge. Also can be used during spirit combo if you don't have enough meter

Sns and hammer are my favourite so far
Thanks for the guids as always.
A point for IG you can aim your decending trust with focus mode
you can also do focus strike mid-air
@viporiox555 I thought that's was obiest
Just got into Monster Hunter through Worlds. It is really fun but when I take of the defender gear, it feels like dark souls😂
you can now hold R2 to instantly go up a level with long sword.
How deep can you dive with that long sword of yours
They gave Judgement Cut End to longsword. Now I'm a little motivated!
I NEED MORE POWER!!
HELL YEAAAH KILLING MOON AGAIN!!
