You can go fight a small monster and evade backward until you’re really far away, the ground small monsters will eventually get to you from its attacking moving it forward, but the flying ones will never move, you can do this to practice your weapons
I miss charge blade on the 3ds most cos we can add touch screen shortcut for one key swap weapon mode, easier to perform guard point. I once guard point teostra super nova and counter him with my own boom!
After having a pause basically since 2 months after release due to me not liking playing with sword and shield, just randomly saw that they released the charge blade for the game changed the pause to a full grind. Thanks for your guide, definetely helped me
Finally! The weapon of the gods! Charge blade is by FAR my absolute favorite weapon, love to see the guide on using mechanics in MH Now! Its complicated to learn, but so rewarding when you can just swap around, and I love Guard Point! I main CB in MH World, Rise and will be doing so in MHN! Thanks for the great guide and analogies, Shawnzy! Pro tip on Raw CBs : If the weapon has no elemental damage, like the Diablos blade, not only do the phials not have a negative modifier from the affinity, but they also do massive impact / stun damage if you smack the monster in the face with it. Especially with a charged up shield! Lock on in MHN and impact damage to the face = big win!
Great tip! I've heard about impact phials doing stun dmg but even tho I've tried it a few times, I just can't KO the monster. Not too sure if they brought in this mechanic so I left that out. AED on the monster's head doesn't seem to have that KO starry effect so I'm not sure dude.
Supposedly according to a couple of guide sites I've read it does, I haven't mashed enough monster faces. I did knock a Deviljho down with a Diablos blade with an SAED to the face, but that could be anecdotal! Will play more and report back.@@shawnzyplays
@invaderxion8469 I'll try to do it too! It's either they didn't bring it in.. or the monsters die too quickly. cb is just too damn strong lol NERF IT (BOW MASTERRACE)
Great video man! So happy that they've added this weapon so early on. This weapon's damage output is insane. Really hoping that the complexity of its use makes it so we don't ever see a nerf, but I won't hold my breath lol
Thanks for the guide! I’m only fighting 6* monsters but my G5 charge blades feel OP atm but I know it’ll be good to learn these combos as I move up in stars
When I just started MHN 3 days ago, I was suggested this weapon 🙄 and boy this tutorial video was sooo helpful in learning the combos. Right now, I am struggling to learn the Red Shield + quick SH-SAED combo (at the last part of this vid). Thanks!
Hello! I'm glad this helped! For now, make sure you're really good with getting red shield. Once you've got that down, you can just charge up your phials, tap sp button to get to axe mode and have fun. Then get used to advance technics after that
Thanks for the guide. Some feedback is that the captions covered the phials which made it trickier for me to follow. Please keep doing captions though!
I wish they could add the ability to charge your blade after your shield is charged. I understand the mhn give you a small window to complete your hunt but why allow the shield charge if you can't charge your sword from it.
Are ya'll usually moving to SAED like the main games, or just sticking with AED? To me, the shorter fights make it seem more useful to spam AED with a non-charged shield, but I'm not a number cruncher and I don't know if it's really optimal.
I’ve mastered charge blade and migrated here wondering where my red sword at Tip: both sword and axe is useful, sword is for mobility against aggressive monsters to chip away their health while axe is for hard to reach and when you got them right where you want them
I just realized this, when your phials are red(charged), tapping sp to switch to axe mode instantly convert them into the vials. I'm more interested at how Quick Work affected the cb animations.
There’s only one thing I don’t understand, after charging the shield how do I charge my blade after? I know you can only do it with red shield but I can’t figure it out
Whats the optimal flow u guys ended up with? Heres mine 1. Charge phial 2. Use AED without the 1st 2 normal swings Somehow charging the shield feels like it takes too long ahha
Currently I think I'm doing okay with charging red shield. Still working on the next part. Sometimes even with red shield and full phials, my stupid finger charge the red shield again
@@shawnzyplays can totally relate haha i think im not cut out to do shield thrust to AED/SAED.. the timing often clash with the mobs attack pattern so I often just change to axe mode and perform AED/SAED
I agree 100% but I'm really new to CB and want to research a little more first. Moreover there's another monster coming out soon. Might wait for that as well.
You can just tap and hold in sword mode. If you're aiming for guard point, a simpler way is to tap the sp button in sword mode and there's a guard point during the morphing animation
I'm kinda unga bunga myself... and TBH MHN's early life was kinda Black Diablos bow or Elemental Builds. This weapon looks like it's worth it to play. The fact that this game has detailed mechanics deserves recognition. I've made a seperate account that will be Charge Blade only. Learning on 6-8 star monsters was too painful. I tried. That said. The game is severely lacking a "learn" option. But yes I feel the need to learn this. Here is what all guides are lacking. Every guide goes phials/store/AED or SAED. Dude I get stuck in Axe or SnS and fumble around switching. I wish more basic guides focused on how to transform clear and consise.
I havent really given CB a go, but try to tap and hold after guard point. It should get you to the discharge stance, release finger for AED(if shield is not red). If shield is red, swipe down from discharge stance.
@@shawnzyplays I managed to find a tutorial that said swipe up immediately after the guard connects. I tried it but it's really hard to pull off(though I had to swipe up, down then swipe up again in quick succession and I was able to pull it off only once so I do hope you're able to master and make a follow up.
This weapon does SO much damage, but the damage is locked behind the biggest execution hurdle in the game. I'm hoping that's enough to not get it nerfed into the ground now that I'm investing time into it
The pros charge up the shield in one sequence. It really requires great muscle memory. I'm still far from it because I had to think of what I should do next and sometimes I'll get mindblocked for abit lol
It has an awesome transformation and I've been watching a lot of videos, I still don't understand it. I guess I need first person view like counterstrike how one swiping and tapping this charge blade, while half screen showing what happened to mhnow...
Just gotta break up everything into bite sized bits. I.e instead of looking at the whole sequence to get to red shield, how about you look at... 1. Charging your phials to red 2. Storing your phials 3. Getting used to shield thrust after storing phials Etc
@@shawnzyplays I guess I'm kinda impatient. Hahahaha. I can use gs, bowgun. But charge blade, it numbs me. My thinking, my action. I just need to try more. Thank you for the tips. I'll definitely try it again because it's hard and it's fun 😆😆😆👍👍👍
@@m2mdohkun don't give yourself too much pressure. It's not a weapon for everyone. If you like complex weapons and challenges, go for it. But if you find yourself hating how complex it is, drop it okay.
@@shawnzyplays I build it just using residual resources. My main still bowgun. Already invest so much resources for that. Hahahaha. It's okay. Just have fun grinding 😆😆😆👍👍👍
I just got my gold medal for gunlance, and a lot of my gun Lance great translated into a fighting style for charge blade, but if you try and play CB like GL, you will die, a lot
Really appreciate the guide but overemphasis when pronouncing felt like you were spitting into my ears, had to mute to be able to watch it. Also minor thing but err was it meant to be 'Hey guys, Shawnzy here'?
should be less complicated i guess. It's the kinsect part that worries me though. In main game we can move around and shoot out our kinsect to get the different buffs from different monster parts but idk how they will do it here. Do we realllllllly need to roll around here and there just to get the buff :/ i hope theyll simplify it for IG
They should add a training room option in MHN so that we can actually practice
It would've been way easier to make a guide if they did it. I hope they would really consider it
You can go fight a small monster and evade backward until you’re really far away, the ground small monsters will eventually get to you from its attacking moving it forward, but the flying ones will never move, you can do this to practice your weapons
@thereeman2293 if you're too far away and you tap, you'll slide forward tho..
@@shawnzyplays Then just keep going backward if you accidentally slide forward, it’s essentially a training area since you have infinite time as well
@@thereeman2293too bad u can't practice anything that involves getting hits. We need a dummy to hit
Veteran of 1000hrs on charge blade on main series and I still come back to search these videos from time to time hahaha especially for mhnow xD 😅
lol Same. Kind of necessary to figure out all the inputs. Could not figure out how to charge my shield at first.
Please share some of those veteran wisdom to us noobs!!!
I miss charge blade on the 3ds most cos we can add touch screen shortcut for one key swap weapon mode, easier to perform guard point.

NERF IT (BOW MASTERRACE)
Yo!! It stuns in mhn too! Confirmed
Them adding the CB & some new monsters with new/different gimmicks n’ mechanics is definitely refreshing to return to 😌 Rank 71 hunter here! 🎉
Welcome back!!
Great video man! So happy that they've added this weapon so early on. This weapon's damage output is insane. Really hoping that the complexity of its use makes it so we don't ever see a nerf, but I won't hold my breath lol
The dmg output is really crazy. Even if you don't set up for SAED, AED itself is already very strong.
Thanks for the guide! I’m only fighting 6* monsters but my G5 charge blades feel OP atm but I know it’ll be good to learn these combos as I move up in stars
I had to use the charge blade for a daily after months of lsword and once i saw it morph into an axe i thought "what is this power!?"
Loved the weapon as soon as it dropped
im still trying to get good with it haha
I'm glad this guide exists, I ain't about to kill hundreds of critters to try figure out what controls they gave this lol
I think I learned it pretty well but thanks for the guid it helped me figure out things i didn’t know
When I just started MHN 3 days ago, I was suggested this weapon 🙄 and boy this tutorial video was sooo helpful in learning the combos. Right now, I am struggling to learn the Red Shield + quick SH-SAED combo (at the last part of this vid). Thanks!

Any info on artillery skill-like in this game? I dont know what skill to increase impact phial damage
There's none for now :/
Can you do a weapon build?
Right here sir th-cam.com/video/bRAzWu2rZaw/w-d-xo.html
I'm new to charge blade in the game but I love my blasting build with artillery and quick work build, ❤ it goes boom every 2nd hit.
Wow, very helpful video mate! Thank you. I understand Charge Blade a little bit better now.
Glad it helped!
Thanks for the guide. Some feedback is that the captions covered the phials which made it trickier for me to follow. Please keep doing captions though!
Thanks for the feedback dude. I'll keep that in mind next time!
Finally good guide that explain it all fully. Now i getting hang of it now and know more what to do
Thanks for your kind words. I'm glad it helped!
Note: if you swipe down when you have Red Shield before the SAED you can do an AED with red shield
I wish they could add the ability to charge your blade after your shield is charged. I understand the mhn give you a small window to complete your hunt but why allow the shield charge if you can't charge your sword from it.
If its like main series then there might be a way to use aed or saed straight from guard point
Yeah there is. Tap and hold after guard point, and release
@@shawnzyplays awesome, thank you
Nah the commentary was the best thing in this video💀
Are ya'll usually moving to SAED like the main games, or just sticking with AED? To me, the shorter fights make it seem more useful to spam AED with a non-charged shield, but I'm not a number cruncher and I don't know if it's really optimal.
The OG Weapon Guide maker returns!
How much money is in the bank of Shawn btw?
Ayyy KOC! welcome welcome.
It's just a small bank. It's only able to store 5 phials :p
I’ve mastered charge blade and migrated here wondering where my red sword at

Dayum even with the guide my head still hurt lmao
How would you place the charge blade in terms of tier list?
In the hands of a pro, s tier.
In my hands, atm, c tier cos I suck at it lol
@shawnzyplays So it's like long sword? Would you say it's better or LS?
@timr.2257 ahhhh LS is pretty good in the hands of a master too!
@@shawnzyplays So which weapon is stronger? 😅
@timr.2257 in terms of numbers, probably CB but you'll need to master it well
now we just need the charged up blade so we can feel the full potential of CHARGE BLADE
Pls no.. it's already super complex :/
but that's what the weapon is about.... charge blade; charging the blade
DUDE...very good tutorial
Thanks for the feedback! Please also rate me 5stars in tripadvisor
There’s only one thing I don’t understand, after charging the shield how do I charge my blade after? I know you can only do it with red shield but I can’t figure it out
unlike mhw, you cant charge your sword in mhn.
So I’ve been seeing discussions about it and is it better to just spam normal aed or stick with going for saed?
hmmm i dont really play CB tho.. hopefully someone can give you an answer!
Nice, I was wondering how cool it would be if they implemented charging the sword or even Savage Axe mode. That’d be crazy lol
It's already a very complex weapon :(
in mhw.. my fav is cb, lance and gunlance..now im gonna comeback in now with this too..
Are we able to charge the sword as well after filling the shield with phials like in the main games
@@MauriceSeow unfortunately not in mhn
Saw another tip some1 shared, when ur phials is red u can just tap on the SP button to load the phials, haven try though
Ya I saw some vids on that too!
wondering if red shield provide addtional 2 guard like in other MH games
It would make sense to have it!
How to do the shield bash after chargin phials?
Just swipe up after storing phials
@@shawnzyplays ohhh okay, thank you
I need a video where show all moves that follow Guard Point
Whats the optimal flow u guys ended up with? Heres mine
1. Charge phial
2. Use AED without the 1st 2 normal swings
Somehow charging the shield feels like it takes too long ahha
Currently I think I'm doing okay with charging red shield. Still working on the next part.

@@shawnzyplays can totally relate haha i think im not cut out to do shield thrust to AED/SAED.. the timing often clash with the mobs attack pattern so I often just change to axe mode and perform AED/SAED
I still dont get it. Too mamy variations of tap and hold
after u charge your shield(Red), your axe attacks become stronger than before u charge shield. as of the main game. i dunno bout mhn. didn’t notice.
Fk gotta watch it later in 0,25 speed :) thx for guide brah!
Oh no someone commented that I spoke too slowly previously. Was I too fast in this vid?
You know what you could've added to this video? Recommended armors for said weapon. Would've loved to see some sets.
I believe Odo helm and vambraces are two of the required armor pieces because of quick work skill
I agree 100% but I'm really new to CB and want to research a little more first.
Moreover there's another monster coming out soon. Might wait for that as well.
Great video!!! CB one of those weapons for us weird ones that like to work for our big numbers.
Great video, helped me out a lot!
Thanks for your kind words! This is what motivates me to make such vids!
Nice Guide man, thx
Can u tell me for cb how diff between dia cb. And black dia just a dmg or it diff like bow.
yeah nothing special. just the stats is different
Trying to the gaurd isn’t easy it keeps making me do the one tap attack then the hold attack when I try

No way to charge the sword in Now right? Just wanted to check 👀
Yeah no way to do so
@@shawnzyplays thanks for the reply! Also does the swiping up charge the phials? Wondering if i'm doing something wrong 🤔

It's not easy!
How low we have fallen 😢
Along time ago somebody was teaching this for real fights
Was coughing then that guard point visual appears. Now theres phlegm on my phone.
Too much info there lol
@@shawnzyplays no, that literal guard point caught me off guard. was coughing while laughing. damn.
@cis4659 heh glad you liked that
now what best set for this CB?
At the moment just stick with elemental attack lv 5. Or the usual crit build. It should tide you over until we understand the weapon a little more
When u have red shield and just wan to do jipaboom(aed) not bijipaboom(saed) instead of hold and release do a hold and swipe back
so with red shield + phials, in axe mode, tap and hold. Once im in the charging stance, i swipe down = AED, if i release instead, it is SAED?

Yeah some players don't even bother with the red shield. They just store phials, get into axe mode and go ham with it

finally a good guide though
Yeah!!! But if we keep using it, we should get used to it in no time!
You forgot to show how you can charge the blade in sword shield mode
Can't do that in mhn I think
I've been doing guard points this whole time lmaoooo
Chad energy
Lol thx for the great info
Welcome!
I like the explosive cb 😂
I guest AED might be better than SAED for dps since it consumes less phials and cost less time. (Big hate on 75 second limit)
At my current stage of playing, I'll accept whatever happen(aed/saed) because im still not very fluid in my gameplay hahahahh
Thanks for guide you are best
That's very nice of you to say that!
Good explanation
Bro Singaporean accent damn strong
thats the way.
So there is no savage axe mode in mhn? Shame
Yeah dude no savage axe.
