To my fellow gs users, focus is not optional if you want to be comfy and have high dps, the difference in one swing isnt much, but you gotta consider how often you're charging up a hit. Its a huge dps increase over the course of a whole hunt, and the time saved lets you get off more punishes, more tcs's, and you aren't nailed in place as much.
Hey wasup, first time watching one of your videos. Just wanted to say I really like your presentation (like when you show the different affinity percentages form each skill and the different skills descriptions) with the different options for each build and the way you explain things
OHHH MYYY GODDDD, YOUR VIDEO IS JUST PERFECT, I LOVE ALL THE EDITS, THAT REALLY MAKE ME UNDERSTAND EVERY SINGLE BIT OF INFORMATION, THANK YOU SO MUCH. LOVE IT!!!!!
When PC gets AT velk then exchange the dragonhead for gamma velk head,the rest of the armor obviously being 4 piece fatalis. Youll fit in 3 coal and 3 peak along with all other meta damage skills maxed out plus focus 3 and some utility stuff that you dont need(personally earplugs 5 for me is best because its a free tcs every monster roar,so like 2k damage for free). Youll have to swap max might for crit 7 though so only 95% affinity assuming you want health aug. Also ive made like one female friend on this game, my other 5 friends are dudes, point being is im just surprised to see a female doing a build video (and a good one at that) : ). Also note that you will need 3 attack 4 decos for the build i mentioned,sorry about that.
Actually resentment is active on every hit even with health augment because it’s active as soon as the attack starts and the health only comes back when the hit is finished
just want to leave a quick note where you state that resentment and health augment not working together. the hp loss happens on the startup of the attack, the attack hits the monster with all damage modifiers, then your hp goes back up from the hp augment. there are arguments online about it not working but when i tested this on a PS4 with several weapons with the only difference being resentment and hp augment on weapons the damage was still boosted with the hp augment active.
I've tested resentment with Safi and health augment on a DB build recently on PC and the resentment buff is just applied after the end of the hit animation that leaves me with red bar life. If I end the animation on green life it doesn't trigger. Can't say it's the same with GS or other weapons since DB hits are fast.
@@_Alrin the only resentment and health aug I got to work is elemental db, I think it's because health aug only heals based on physical damage. the heal you get back is about 60% of the hp you lose from safi armor, this way you are not losing so much health and can always proc resentment.
Damn very comfy explanation, Mine get 4 fatalis + velk y boots and add 5 resentment against teostra spam, it's very neat as you dont need tool specialist
Been mixed on health regen. Tried it for the first time with a throwaway sword, and found I liked being able to recover enough to give me another hit. That being said, I'm addicted to having 3 Free Meal and popping Max Potions all over the place, and just sticking Affinity on my weapons.
i tried your first build and its a difference what i see on your video. I dont made 2k or 3 k dmg using this build with the same set and the same jewels. Am i doing something wrong ? tipps ?
for max dps, safi element agi resentment, attack 4,(u'll need protective polish n lots of fish scales) for comfy, fatty with elements agi secret peakI(or change peak to coalescence) 3 marathon 2 physique (eat drink to 5 if u want but I think 2 is enough). my opinion is max dps for solo. comfy for 4 players (unpredictable monster targeting). fire is the only tricky one, if u want FULL dps run 2 silver 2 ....that new armor (azure something) with safi fireclaw, im too lazy n just went fatty kjarr n minds eye lol.
Back then, there were certain event quests that give tons of jewels. I remember The Greatest Jagaras as one. And others that gave good jewels we got were from Arch-Tempered elders. We wish you good luck on the grind!!
Monsters are balanced around tenderizing, so you are not dealing more damage with wallbangs and tender, you are dealing LESS by not doing it. Thankfully the mechanic dies with this generation
The reason why I dislike tenderizing is almost exclusively that the monsters which are most important to keep it active for tend to have the worst mechanics involved with the clutch claw, such as furious rajang, who will grapple and pin you directly off of his arms while he's enraged unless he's in the middle of firing his forward lightning beam. Another good example of a monster that tenderizing makes life easier, but it doesn't give you the openings to execute it well is Savage Deviljho to me. It seems I can only tenderize with a bow or dual blades because anything else has a slower animation and I get thrown off of him before it succeeds. His hide is particularly thick, so he takes way less damage if you don't tenderize compared to some which you can largely ignore it. You can totally ignore it on Kirin, but it does help to tenderize its shanks since its so mobile in case it rotates or rears up and you don't hit the head from that AI. Kushala is one where its tenderize, or bounce unless you have purple sharpness. But even then the damage is only something like a third of what it could be if you tenderized. Basically you have to use traps or flash pods where applicable, or the Rocksteady mantle, and I just would rather not carry flash pods cause I waste them attempting to wall bang. Its infuriating to make that mistake. More or less its just me preffering to be slightly more lazy, but most of these cases it boils down to having to bait out specific attacks for you to get the tenderize off, when it just feels more fluid to simply wail on it as often as possible without having to wiggle your butt about 2 roll distances away and slightly to the left of those mentioned. And I preffer to use affinity and health boosters, or the glider mantle. So in short, 95% of the argument is just playstyle choice, but 5% is a legitimate complaint about the AI behavior when you want to tenderize.

The focus charge comparison was aesthetically pleasing

Its a huge dps increase over the course of a whole hunt, and the time saved lets you get off more punishes, more tcs's, and you aren't nailed in place as much.
Given the fact when a KO'd monster sometimes usually gets up during the true charge slash gets on my nerves when I miss.
Hey wasup, first time watching one of your videos. Just wanted to say I really like your presentation (like when you show the different affinity percentages form each skill and the different skills descriptions) with the different options for each build and the way you explain things
After watching several videos, I really appreciate you breaking down the affinity pieces and how much it all adds up.
OHHH MYYY GODDDD, YOUR VIDEO IS JUST PERFECT, I LOVE ALL THE EDITS, THAT REALLY MAKE ME UNDERSTAND EVERY SINGLE BIT OF INFORMATION, THANK YOU SO MUCH. LOVE IT!!!!!
@@_Alrin wow, you replied!
Sweet, that fourth build looks super comfy
Time to farm those decos, ty for all the hard work
The TCS whiff @4:16 didn't go unnoticed
Always will appreciate these build videos
Seeing the differences in the focus 0 to focus 3 was nice to see. Not many people may find it helpful but its a nice touch.

you can tell me a name of his mod or a name of this greatsword?
The difference in focus levels might be small in numbers but infinite in how it feels. I actually cringe at no focus charges. Can’t live without it.

What layer augment are you using on your sword?
What skin is that on the sword. It looks amazing
what layered weapon is this on the GS? and how to get it if u may?
Best defense with gs is medicine(recovery up) level 3 and health regen augment, 1 full charge hit heals %40 of my health.

What is the Name of the weapon Design?
love your vids♥♥♥♥♥♥, very clear and simple thank you for making those vids.
can you please make one for switch axe next?
WHAT GREAT SWORD OR LAYERED GREATSWORD SKIN ARE YOU USING PLEASE
what skin is that on the sword?
What layered weapon are you using?
Great as always! Could you bring elemental SA back to glory??
I need a budget build for the max might
This armor set are fatalis ir Alatreon ?
Is the frostcraft build weaker than these builds?
I built mine somewhat like your 4th build but with Alatreon boots.
i tried your first build and its a difference what i see on your video. I dont made 2k or 3 k dmg using this build with the same set and the same jewels. Am i doing something wrong ? tipps ?
You didnt give the whole story, if you tackle you lose stamina but by the time you do the tcs your stamina will be full and max might will proc
Can u do bow raw fatalis
Please do dual blades. You alls build vids have been on point
for max dps, safi element agi resentment, attack 4,(u'll need protective polish n lots of fish scales) for comfy, fatty with elements agi secret peakI(or change peak to coalescence) 3 marathon 2 physique (eat drink to 5 if u want but I think 2 is enough). my opinion is max dps for solo. comfy for 4 players (unpredictable monster targeting). fire is the only tricky one, if u want FULL dps run 2 silver 2 ....that new armor (azure something) with safi fireclaw, im too lazy n just went fatty kjarr n minds eye lol.
why attack augment this is pretty wased in the weapon.... health reg/affinity R1 and element max
Where Did u get theses Jewels +4 ?!
It's the iceborne expansion that allows you to +4 jewels
@@_Alrin I Play MHW Icebourne, but until now I got only Jewels +4 that are useless , do you know any Quest that I can do to get these Jewels easily?
Back then, there were certain event quests that give tons of jewels. I remember The Greatest Jagaras as one. And others that gave good jewels we got were from Arch-Tempered elders. We wish you good luck on the grind!!
@@_Alrin thank you, you are Incredible 🥰
but but but... FrostCraft crit draw!?!?
try frost craft with 85 crit. 4 y armor 1 fatty, you get 4att 5 agi 3peak 3 coal. 85% crit on tenderized parts, its enough!
*_All hail Panda!!!🐼❤_*
frostcraft gs is also strong
rimeguard helm y
rimeguard mail y
dragonclaws b
rimeguard coil y
rimeguard greaves y
Never heard of these tenderise-hating people. I mean who hates bigger numbers? This is the only reason i play GS
A lot of people hate tenderizing. It is a pain having to tenderize every 90 secs just for that 100% affinity. Well at least they extended the duration
Well, i Love tenderizing so i don't really care bout the time but, to each its own

@@evilreigns7213 And there are even instances where you're trying to clutch claw to the monster's head but you'll end up in it's tail instead
