I get what you mean but after time in the arena you will see a move and know what button or combo you need I’m not kidding I spend 20 min in the arena or on low rank monsters just to warm up before I go out for a hunt it’s been ages since you commented and I bet your skills are bad ass now
Same. Someone that is barely starting out I feel Ike he talked about it very well I just don’t know all of the button combos haha. Buttons on screen would’ve been very useful
I am glad that you chose to use raw footage instead of editing out the mini fails during barrels. Definitely something that takes practice for sure and things happen, then to go from that to straight up a BEASTLY execution vs nerge was awesome to watch. I had to choose between LS and SnS to start up a new weapon to keep the game fresh (I main HH, with side play of Bow, CB, and IG). I tried LS and was STRUGGLING haha so i'm definitely having alot of fun with SnS. But LS will be next for sure
I watch a video of your’s a month ago, and started using foresight after seeing it utilized well. I was new to long sword and your videos really helped. It’s really helped my LS play. Thanks for making this video going more in depth on your thought process during a fight.
This man knows! Whenever i see people learning ls and having trouble, i just tell them: “ Go for the Hail Mary foresight’s, go for the ballsy moves.” If it doesn’t work, you learned something. If it doesn’t, you look amazing and feel amazing 🗡👌
Also good thing to know is that if you use the foresight slash right before an attack or roar perfectly it fills up the gauge completely if the hit lands, it it doesn't the gauge drains. Works the same with the iai slash, if you land it while the monster is going to hit the meter doesn't drop
Hi DG, I just started learning long sword after hundreds of hours on great sword. This was really helpful, especially waiting between attacks for the foresight opening. Dance on those monsters!
DG DG, your videos are the reason why I started LS. The ( I'm a dirty xobox user) Y B Y B (∆ O ∆ O) combo is the combo that helped me get those juicy Foresight slashes off the hop. You get to the point, where if your sword is out, you feel like nothing can touch you. Quick poke with B, boom foresight and you're out of there. If I may add one quick tip, though. Hills are LS friend too, you slide and use RT (R2) to samurai jump slash, then when you land, a second RT will get you to the round slash. That's right 2 slashes to up your bar. For big bosses it's a god send, like MR KT. I through on Rock steady bounce KT get 2 of those of in the first minute of the fight. Only works from a slide and the second hit needs meter. But all you need is one poke to build enough meter. Also a tip for us Xbox users, if you're having trouble getting those FSS, swap RT and LT with Rb and Lb ( R2 with R1). The shorter button press, that RB provides, make a difference. You won't accidentally be pushing RT then B, you'll know the pain if you've ever tried to FSS, and you start a spirit slash instead. This weapons is so much fun and your videos help me "Diiiive in" thanks DG.
Thank you for helping me out with learning the long sword. I have grown a very high appreciation/respect for this weapon. Not to mention it didnt take me to terribly long to catch on how to do advance combos and mastering the foresight slash.
Im a LS main but i only have the base game, i can tell that you're a good teacher, my tip for the guys who is trying to main or get used to LS is just know the basics and empty your mind and focus and trust me it will be a smooth hunt for you
Started using long sword, after IG, i have to say it has much more high skill ceiling compared to IG, with IG u can deal consistent damange throughout the hunt u just need to know the basic of kinsect and when u should be flying and when u should be on ground, but for LS you need to be skillful to deal real damage in the least possible time which i like about this weapon!! And its funny how every LS guide i watch there is always something different to offer,nice video btw keep posting.
Both special sheath attacks have I-frames so not only is it more efficient, its very safe, and keeps meter auto filling for foresight slash and the spirit roundhouse combo
Brother I been an LBG main since the game came out with ocational Insecr Glaive gameplay. I been watching your channel for a while and I like your style. Recently I had the courage to try LS after watching a lot of your videos and I been having a lot of fun not just with gameplay but also with the builds. Your the man DG.
I just got to nergi’s fight yesterday and 1) I need to use foresight, have never used it and just suffered through roars 2) I need to set and remember shortcuts for crafting potions because running around with the menu open and panicking while spamming crafting because I’m getting my teeth kicked in is a little terrifying
Don't b afraid to use helm spiltter. I use it all the time everytime. Idc if the monster is prone or raging. If the monster moves u can always readjust in the air USE IT! U gotta be patiently aggressive.
Pre Iceborne I was an IG main, and messed with GS. After Iceborne I became a GS main, and mess with LS from time to time. Thanks for the video! Now I know how to use LS like a pro
Nice video. You forgot to mention that you can go into the draw attack mid foresight slash, its a tight window, but useful if you did the the foresight slash too early, and some other situations.
I started this game like a month ago and I can't seem to stick to one weapon. Pretty much everytime I as much as learn a moveset I feel like moving on to another one. But needless to say this was very helpful.
Thanks a lot for the video, man! I love using LS, but even after hundreds of hours into the game (using dual blades and hammers too) I didn't know Foresight Slash was even a thing!
Just tried practising on tempered ruiner today and he was having none of my shit, safe to say sometimes you can do everything right and monsters just pull bullshit out of their magic hats.
Thanks for this 👍🏼 just forged Raging B LS and want to learn how to master this as it looks so fun. I've only been using the Glaive as my starter weapon.
Thank you for making this vid! I was hoping you would make a tutorial vid on long sword. Only complaint is I was hoping for the button presses on the combos
Just watched this video to see what other tech there was. This is a pretty cool guide for people being introduced into LongSword. The only two things you didn't cover were the Foresight Slash in Iai Sheathe and the invincibility frames of the Iai Slash that can be used to go through roars and attacks (I've used it a few times and saw a dude go against Acidic Glav toe to toe like a Samurai battle.) Iai Slash's i-frames are even tighter than those of the Iai Spirit Slash. I sat in the training area for nearly two hours working on the proper timing with both moves.
Didn't really explain everything, like how do you angle the downward slash towards the monster every time. As soon as I get airborn, it shoots the attack the way I am facing and pressing the stick left or right makes minimal difference in the way the character is facing. Here in the fight I see him basically doing 180 spins while in mid air.
Idk my monsters act weird. They like to run off and when I chase them they run back to the original spot. They do this over and over again IN THE SAME ZONE. Any tips?
I'm gonna leave a comment here saying that I will now practice the Foresight. LS is my main but I mostly rely on Iai draw slash and Helm Splitter and never use Foresight. I'll update on how I do
Yo I see you pushing high numbers with basic attacks. The highest mine go is between 18 and 22. How are you doing all that damage before even filling the first gauge?
Ima expert with hammer and I might just change to LS I could get expert at those two, along with dual blades and great sword. Those are my fav weapons to play with.
you should play more aggressive vs nergi dont use palico vs nergi always try and stay infront of him use IA spirit slash as much as possible when you see an opening
I’m new to MHW and saw the longsword, I knew it will be the only weapon I use in the game I’m getting better every day. I love how you show your miss-calculations no one is perfect and this is the best content out there for long sword 👌
Always nice to get a great time when doing a tutorial ;D good job on your explanations, spirit iai slash is so tough to time especially on monsters you don't fight too often. Wish you could make the bell sound a bit louder
Does anyone know the combo he used to build his first meter against nergigante?? He used foresight slash but then pressed something else to build the meter
doing a successful evade and hitting something with foresight slash will fill the meter. pressing r2 after that will set your meter to white if it it something.
there is better weapons, fatalis LS for super end game, safi, and raging brach LS if you dont have fatalis LS. As for the armour if you dont have fatalis armour go with the Raging brachy chest and legs and 3 piece teo OR use a safi weapon with teo skill (master touch) with 3 atk V and 1 Atk VI or sharpness V/VI with teo waist and arms and brachy head,chest and legs. All the armours is in beta +

Very informative but it would be even more helpful if you left your button sequences visible
I am a GS main with over 1200 hrs on mhw, i was issued a challenge with starting fresh with only a longsword. Fortify has been a big help.
Thanks man! As a guy whos never used longsword but was always curious this helped me a ton! Subbed!

First comment! Great video really needed this to help out since longsword is a little complicated at first. As always best of luck from Australia 🇦🇺.
Another useful tip for helm breaker is while your in the air if you click triangle it changes your direction

if you do a successful foresight slash, you can follow immediately whit a spirit slash for extra damage and a level up in the gauge
Thanks for this 👍🏼 just forged Raging B LS and want to learn how to master this as it looks so fun. I've only been using the Glaive as my starter weapon.
Best tutorial ever. Switching to LS from bow and this was so useful! Thanks!
Also you don’t have to land every slash to upgrade your meter. As long as that final attack in the combo lands, it’ll upgrade 💪🏾
Here’s a quicker tip “land your hits”.
Well yeah but everyone knows that
Or maybe it's a joke🤔
No one will ever know
@@bluesky0701 with how many folks I see swinging at pure air, its a valid comment
Thanks Einstein
The only problem with the long sword is I have relied too much on masters touch just cant seem to take it off on any DPS build
Your videos are the reason I got back to longsword my man
9:05 I was wondering when you would notice lol
Best in-depth tutorial of LS. and i never saw him use the clutch claw.
Holy shit, you can actually foresight roars?! Did not know, thx.
You can foresight roars, fire, ice, wind, anything that does damage or cc
Thank you for making this vid! I was hoping you would make a tutorial vid on long sword. Only complaint is I was hoping for the button presses on the combos
Thanks mate, this was very helpful
This is a nice refresher course on the LS and from a knowledgeable source as well
You're a freaking beast with the longsword man
whats that layered armor
Not sure if I missed it or if I'm wrong but I think you need spirit gauge to do foresight correct me if I'm wrong
thanks man, the best guide i found about long sword

I seen you use that triangle circle a lot into foresight slash. I need to add that for fighting rajang and other fasts monsters. Great video
My boy at it again ! Good shit brother
Great tutorial and mesmerizing gameplay!
Thank you so much!
Didn't really explain everything, like how do you angle the downward slash towards the monster every time.

Here in the fight I see him basically doing 180 spins while in mid air.
Loved the video! Tried long sword after being an SA main for a long time and never looked back
Longsword just has so much potential to style and flex on monsters...
This helped me so much I had no idea you could triangle circle infinite combo
I didn't know foresight used up the red bar thanks
I’m an avid user of the long sword and I learned quiet a bit still from this that I didn’t know.
Idk my monsters act weird. They like to run off and when I chase them they run back to the original spot. They do this over and over again IN THE SAME ZONE. Any tips?
YESSSSS PERFECT TIMING!! I’ve been trying and trying hahah
TIL that you can mix some attacks mid spirit slash combos. Seen a ton of videos on the LS and none mentioned that. Thx a lot man!
I'm gonna leave a comment here saying that I will now practice the Foresight. LS is my main but I mostly rely on Iai draw slash and Helm Splitter and never use Foresight. I'll update on how I do
Yo this is such a gem your a legend ! love your content !
Yo I see you pushing high numbers with basic attacks. The highest mine go is between 18 and 22. How are you doing all that damage before even filling the first gauge?
Could someone tell me Which long sword he is using and armor both of them looks damn awesome.
What is that slash attack that builds meter after your foresight hits and evades and what do you press to get it? I can’t get it to happen.
R2+O, ∆+O , R2, R2, R2
Hey man, thanks for the vid, quick offtopic question, which Sennheiser headphone is that?
Dear gamer your an amazing sensei at teaching LS tyvm really 👍👍👍
Your LS play is frickin' cleeeeean xD
How can I not smile after hearing this man
triangle+trangle and then stance attack. but whats the buttons?
is foresight a decoration you have to apply? or just a strategy?
Strategy
@@DearGamerTV thanks for the help man, gonna go practice now
Good video! really well explained and informative! thank you
A very well detailed explanation from the master himself. 👏 👏 👏 👏
I'm glad this guy vaguely knows a bunch of popular sayings
how do u do some combos that i can't use like when go to a sword stance the you do double quick slashes
Do you have the iceborne dlc? You need iceborne to do that
@@trentwolter208 nope i dont
ahhh sorry thanks for the answering
Ima expert with hammer and I might just change to LS
I could get expert at those two, along with dual blades and great sword.
Those are my fav weapons to play with.
Can’t believe LS is difficult for some ppl, I think it’s like the easiest weapon to use from the tree list.
Yeah, I didn't really learn anything new here.
Hammer is
Awesome video. Just picked up monster hunter
This really helps DG...😁 spoken like a true batousai...😁
After 4k hours I haven't bothered to learn the monsters movesets yet and I'm probably never going to
you should play more aggressive vs nergi
dont use palico vs nergi
always try and stay infront of him
use IA spirit slash as much as possible when you see an opening
Does ur sword have to be upgraded to a certain point for iai stance
No, you have to have the Iceborne DLC
I’m new to MHW and saw the longsword, I knew it will be the only weapon I use in the game I’m getting better every day.
I love how you show your miss-calculations no one is perfect and this is the best content out there for long sword 👌
dang that was satisfying to watch, what's your LS build?
You in seeing the number makes me can't wait till I get iceborn hopefully
So how do you turn off the combos in training?
Always nice to get a great time when doing a tutorial ;D good job on your explanations, spirit iai slash is so tough to time especially on monsters you don't fight too often. Wish you could make the bell sound a bit louder
is special sheathe an expansion pack exclusive because i have the base game and cant do it?
Yes, you need iceborne dlc
Also always make sure to blame the sun dried humus for carting after failing a foresight EHEH
i've gotten through almost all of iceborne without using foresight... probably time to finally figure it out so i can solo alatreon
im gonna cry cause no one ever does pc controls
Evade slash makes it so you only need three spirit slashes to go to the next meter
Does anyone know the combo he used to build his first meter against nergigante?? He used foresight slash but then pressed something else to build the meter
doing a successful evade and hitting something with foresight slash will fill the meter. pressing r2 after that will set your meter to white if it it something.
could you please tell me about your layered armor?
What layered armour is that?! It looks amazing!!!!!
My bro the ending on the monster oughh yesss demon slayer shitt
ah yes, a man of culture
Can i know the set that you're wearing? and what weapon do you use thank you. These tutorial is vvery helpful too!
