Gonna run through the early game of MHW with my wife. Been only using Switchaxe for my first 120 hours or so here, and I think this is a good time to try something new. What would y’all recommend for a switch axe guy? I was thinking this time maybe something fast and can guard? Like the opposite of switch axe? I’m not sure where to go tho.
As a Gunlance main, I’d want to recommend that… but while it does have a nice easy guard (and can be built very tanky), and blowing things up with Wyvern’s Fire is always fun, it is sadly the complete opposite of fast.
But seeing as you’re already used to switchax, and playing World, I’d recommend charge blade. Sword and Shield is faster, but also has a weaker shield (at least, compared to when charge blade’s shield is charged up).
