Demonstration of the build, ruclips.net/video/ypJ0jsCGER4/видео.html I have been holding back these builds until I got time to demonstrate them . I want to follow this with a video with everything about wyrmstake. Right now has turned from being useless to being superior to poke shelling my more factors that just damage.
Man, you tell me I don't need max focus or any vitality decos now, after I finally started getting Charger/Vitality Decorations? My heart can't take it anymore.
I’m having a blast playing Wide gunlance. Seems like I’m doing so much more damage! My only problem is being able to squeeze a flinch free into some of my builds.
Your GL vids are great, but you should speak. Speaking clearly is enough to keep the audience with you. GL (good luck :) ! P.S. And Cao in your name refers to what? (just curious)
Two more days to fully embrace Wide (and Normal, it still is my favorite style I'm Iceborne even though is not meta) Gunlance on PC. I'll be farming a lot on tempered investigations since I'm still missing many of the great lvl 4 decos
I see this is a good build template actually. Question though, if I want to play let's say a versatile style(poke shell, charged shell & stake) should I include wex? Fyi Im not looking for total optimization. Just wanna have fun playing multiple styles in one build.haha
Use this build instead ruclips.net/video/dFv0TlbHoIg/видео.html Basically, you use damascus chest instead. You may replace the third focus for stuff. Poke shell requires sharpness mitigation and is a lot less flexible because that.
Long = more far range and skill options Wide = more side range, more stagger, better shelling on other attacks. You may keep using long for mp or for extra rewards with kirin armor. I would practise with wide because imo is more fun this of using charged shells plus WS whenever there is openings
Heres a question, Im trying to make a build that has a bit of everything but focuses on poke shell combos mostly with some charge shells in there for stagger. Im trying to max out crit eye and health with 1 guard but can't decide between having focus 2 or going from guard 1 to 3 instead by dropping to health boost 2 and crit eye 7 down to 6. Is focus 2 worth it or should i ditch it so i can fit more skills in like crit health or guard?
@@caoslayer I made the defacto R. Brachy armor combo for my wide 7 build so it has the agitator maxed, do you really think Focus 2 is still worth it over maxing out crit eye and health boost for the 10% decrease in charge time?
Agitator is the weakest skill in the set, I dont cut crit eye, hb or ctit boost. Charged shells is invaluable for knocking monsters and dealing with bad hitzones. I place agitator in the mantle. You can put affinity aug in the weapon. In general is bad to use the whole set, you always can replace the chest, belt or legs to improve it. For reference, the whole benefit of agitator 0 to 7 in the poke shell combo only raises the damage a 5%
@@caoslayer ok that makes sense. My last question is if i remove the chest, belt or legs like you suggested, what armor is the best to replace them with? I haven't tried furious rajang legs like you have in this video. I also have the razor sharp charm on for sharpness and the weapon has 1x affinity augment.
Legs are a keeper for weakness exploit, if you want crits is the best piece of armor in the game I have replaced the chest for damascus and kirin. For builds where I want earplugs I like to replace the belt for beo that has earplugs 1, two heal boost and two decos. There are lots of good belts, althrought I dont like downgrading agitator that much
Hi @Caoslayer, could you help us normla 7 GL users out and recommend some variances of builds in a video? Lazy Survival, Melee dmg, Shelling optimized, and overall balanced good dmg builds maybe?
Man, you have good content. Glad you ditched the robotic voice since i disliked it. Try us with your accent and see how it turns out, most of the mh community wont mind, imo.
Believe it or not I play very little because live and work and I also play on pc. I plan to drop the console version forever once they align this next week, so is not point.
Shelling can't crit. If you want to use crit boost you gotta play swing lance because its the only playstyle that works with Masters Touch. Edit: Should also mention, this playstyle revolves around never shelling, and never using WS. Its reaaally strong for cutting tails, and if the sound of using a gunstick and never shooting it seems odd, thats because it is.
Oy Cao great video man looks real cool and heplful,since i wanted to start trying the gunlance,btw wanted to ask what's the sick music playing in the back ground cuz its fire mah dude.Good luck for your future builds advantures and stay safe homie.

Hey Cao, have you got any builds going for normal shelling with the new raging brachy gear?
Man, you tell me I don't need max focus or any vitality decos now, after I finally started getting Charger/Vitality Decorations? My heart can't take it anymore.
Save those for long 7..
The thing is rajang pants are soooo good
Damn that GL looks sick. Can't wait to build this on PC.
Next week, finally
Genuinely can't wait to see how crazy Long 7 is gonna be (and how good GL will be in 6th gen)

Me also i just add it to my mantle
Great video. Still trying to tweak my GL build to fit my comfort requirements while still doing good damage.
I like using all the weapons but gunlance is so crispy!! Love your vids!
Finally a video shows build to my liking. Thanks :))
Ayyy Trails of Cold Steel BGM
Nice! I am trying this play style and it is so fun.👍
Can we get a 4 man team vid I'd like to see all those explosions
I'm a notorious lone wolf because reasons like anxienty.. but I would like to do that sometime.
I think I can gather a group in the gunlance subreddit
I try other weapons, but I can't stay away from the gunlance. Send help!

I will put some bravely default next.

@@caoslayer okay thanks man. Just tried and poke shell really does need a lot of sharpness mitigation.lol
@CaoSlayer: So is it better to have Focus lvl 2 or 3
Cao, idk but for me long lvl 6 is still better do I need to improve my playstyle or play with long, need your opinion thanks
Long = more far range and skill options
Wide = more side range, more stagger, better shelling on other attacks.
You may keep using long for mp or for extra rewards with kirin armor.
I would practise with wide because imo is more fun this of using charged shells plus WS whenever there is openings
What is the music from? I swear I heard it somewhere but can't put a finger on it.

I use this one, downgrade the focus to 2 for whatever you need.
Agitator 7 is not that great on gunlance

I will get on it soon.
I need to do an inyermediate step of calculating WS damage
Man, you have good content. Glad you ditched the robotic voice since i disliked it. Try us with your accent and see how it turns out, most of the mh community wont mind, imo.
I agree
im sad that they are coming to PC on my midterm week and i still havent studied anything :v
can i swap peak performance for max attack? or will it tank my dps too hard?
Attack 7 gives you 21 raw. PP 3 20 raw...
I dont see the benefit
Why don't you upgrade the rocksteady mantle and plug it with the same gems as your temporal?
Believe it or not I play very little because live and work and I also play on pc.

Does Crit boost not apply to Gunlance?
Shelling can't crit. If you want to use crit boost you gotta play swing lance because its the only playstyle that works with Masters Touch.
Edit: Should also mention, this playstyle revolves around never shelling, and never using WS. Its reaaally strong for cutting tails, and if the sound of using a gunstick and never shooting it seems odd, thats because it is.
@@fuzzythoughts8020 ok thank you
Crit boost does nothing to charged shells and near nothing to wyrmstake. This frees a lot of space in your builds

Great video though
Sorry I like normal better I'm just better with normal🤷♂️

5 months late lol but this is BGM from trails of cold steel game series. One of my favorite JRPG series
