One thing I appreciate about the older MH games (the further you go back the further the degree), is that they require discipline, patience, and a methodical approach. With enough focus and prediction (from experience) you really could wallop a monster fast and consistently. Not to say that Gen 4 (4U not so much, but a little) and 5 are button mashers, but they are so forgiving, to the point that you really can go braindead during a hunt and recover each time from a greedy hit. Sometimes you really shouldn't try to "get away with" a hit; I think showing restraint is the proof of a hero in MH. Not talking about speedrunning or optimization either, just remembered people praising/complaining about Gen 2 and back being "unfair" and "broken" games. Not true... mostly. You just need to learn the pace of the game. This video was sexy btw
It's unfair because of broken hitboxes and bullshit hit ( like how the tigrex front claw hitzone is a bit bullshit, as it linger for like half a second after its spin move. Got thrown by that several times. Tbh almost every tigrex move linger a bit longer than the animation, giving you the "wtf why I'm being hit by a stopped arm/tail") The newer games fix the hitboxes a bit, but they also add a fuck tons of evasion move and weapon's DPS, while they don't buff the monster's moveset enough to give the same level of danger you feel from older gen.
@@CSplitter Wut,did you know shelling is the best way to chain a combos and gain power for the Wyvern Fire ? I saw that you're not trying everything about that.You really just need a normal Lance.
In the sense that I'm probably going to make Gunlance videos of most monsters that I'm decent against, yes. If you mean going through the game while using only gunlance, no, this isn't one of those. I've done one but I don't see the appeal or recording it.
Picked up gun lance recently. This video was awesome. Gave me a much better idea of how to run it. I'm curious why you weren't using the shells and the big fire blast. Is it too slow for these high rank fights?
Thanks. Shells and Wyvern fire do set damage based on your Gunlance's shell level and type. While amazing in low rank and decent in high rank, they do not scale well into G rank. Unite also introduced a great decrease in sharpness when a shell is fired so they tend to be sub optimal against most monsters. There's still use for them though. Chaining combos is shells' primary use in G rank and there's a couple of cases you can fire off a good Wyvern Fire. But Tigrex's openings don't allow long combos. And I tend to forget there's a gun on my lance :).
@@justsomeguythatwantstocry4243 Shelling and Wyvern Fire becomes almost useless in G-rank (the rank this person on the video is fighting tigrex on) which is really a shame.
Idk why hunters seems so calm to face a bosd and read the movement and attack easily even evading... while me bcs of that music, my heart goes beating fast and make me panicc
@@CSplitter i tried to be more calm and attack precisely But since i play mhfu on ppsspp on mobile, its kinda hard to control bcs i always accidentally press down button and make the camera closer to my character
Same, I almost never touched GL on serious runs... Gonna try getting good with it. I mostly use lance instead, not flashy but moves are straightforward and gets the job well done.
Gunlancing seems much more fun in the more recent games than it does in this one. The fact that shelling does not scale well in this game takes away from the fun factor. Might as well just use a regular lance if you're not going to be shelling at all.
There are reasons to use GL if you are not shelling. When facing monsters such as Tigrex whose head is not high, you're going to be getting more forward stabs in than upward stabs. GL's first 2 forwards have 26% modifier compared to Lance's 23%. Another reason is the running stab. Great for closing distance and your biggest frient against wind pressure (also used for dodgin). This may not seem like much but it can completely change your tactics against stuff like diablos. The uppercut also comes out quicker ( and "lefter") than other hits and can give your better opportunities to position yourself optimally. That said, 3rd and 4th gen gunlance is more varied.
Gunlance's shelling is also extremely useful against incredibly durable monsters such as Gravios or White Fatalis' armor mode since they ignore defense and always do fixed damage. Other than that, yeah, shelling becomes less viable in high to G-rank quests.
There's reasons to still play melee Gunlance. Its melee moveset is still different from Lance, and offers different strategies. I will copy and paste the Runners reply to another comment from 8 years ago, it explains it perfeclty "There are reasons to use GL if you are not shelling.

You really didn't utilize the Gunlance to its full potential.Shelling is one of the best way to trip a monster down.Especially the Wyvern Fire is effective to preempt the monster charge attacks.I suggest you just you normal Lance instead.Gunlance isn't suitable for you.
I suggest you take a look at MHFU's damage formula. Shelling is not one of the best ways to trip a monster down unless the hitzone has terrible melee damage modifiers. Versus Tigrex you should not be aiming for the legs anyway. Wyvern fire's set damage falls off by G rank. It leads to big sharpness loss and if by preempt you mean stagger the monster mid charge, even if you manage to do that consistenly, WF's recoil does not allow you to meaningfully capitalise on that
@@ganasariokrisnadi7322 'Cause Gunlance has the running stab which has wind press resistance and covers ground fast, the uppercut which hits left well and the low stab damage modifiers are better than those of the lance.

Heyo
A pretty nice run, and godly selection of music, when Scias theme started i knew that you were not only a good hunter but also a man of culture
This is god-like. How many hours of playtime did it take you to play like this? This is amazing.
Thanks!
This was a long time ago so I don't remember the exact playtime but that save has a decent bit more than 1000 hours on it.
Lol Unfinished battle from Xenoblade on Wii in the beggining. I approve cause I'm really feeling it.

- Old MH games
@@archiebellega956 They should've went with adding moves with large hitboxes while fixing broken hitboxes.
You really had to focus a lot more than you have to in the newer games.
It called gunlance for a reason... XD
Tell that to Capcom's balancing team who made shells suck :)

Thanks!
First time using gunlance:
Oh boy he *-T H I C C-* *ECCSPLODE*
1:55 holy... that's like a miracle. How do you keep doing that?
They kinda forgot to put a lasting hitbox on Tigrex's left arm during the double bite so you can dodge through that even from weird angles.
@@CSplitter Oh... never knew that before. Great tips, thanks
I recently started this game again and am shocked at how hard it is to position just to land a hit where you want it.
I Failed most of the time doing uppercut as it all does is shelling instead and dulling it in the process
In the sense that I'm probably going to make Gunlance videos of most monsters that I'm decent against, yes.

Came here to see an epic Tigrex vs G-Rank Tigrex battle. Good run, but missing a Tigrex....
Just ... Godly
Took me 10 seconds to get what the hell you're talking about.
Took me 2 minutes to stop laughing.
never really tried gunlance, so I HAD to see this
wait, I don't get it. You used it like is was just a lance the whole time. Is the shooting and MEGABLAST just a waste of time?
@@justsomeguythatwantstocry4243 Wyvern Fire decreases sharpness a lot and Tigrex is a very fast monster so it has less openings.

how to shoot??

Forgive my silly question, but why gL ifur not shoting?
Thank you.
artur fortesquiu vs tigrex
Why didn't he ever shoot? He might as well of just used a lance
Danellboy Refer to similar comment replies.
shell damage sucks and not worth the sharpness
There are reasons why he used gl Instead of lance. One of the reasons is the movesets. To be honest, GunLance has faster moves than Lance
it's sad that there is no shelling, kinda makes you think why not use lance at that point

Glad you enjoyed it.
They call gunlance the weakest weapon on mhfu
I think it depend on how to use it
It's dps is still inferior compared to most weapons, no matter how good you are
awesome

no boom Sadge
