Just came across the channel. Great stuff and worth the sub! I was perusing your uploads and was trying to “tier” the weapons based on your times. I love your choices in GL, CB, and SA. I don’t know how to use SA but I’m wondering what your thoughts are in general between the 3. Which one is your favorite and or which one do you think is the most fun ? Can’t wait for Wilds !!
Hey thanks! Of the three being a Gunlance main (it's in the name haha) I'm obviously heavily biased towards it so I would consider it the most fun. I think CB despite being labelled by the community as the most complicated weapon is actually very simple, just have to pick a playstyle since it's just charge up -> do whatever your chosen playstyle does. SA on the other hand I find to be so much more complicated than what people give it credit for, and I'm honestly not able to do it justice in my runs. ZSD spam might be simple but it's the little things like managing gauge and charge and choosing which of your numerous damage strings are optimal in the situation. It's also why I really like the SA vs Alatreon matchup as Alatreon likes to punish braindead rocksteady + clutch ZSD abuse with moves like the Dragon Punch or any of the lightning moves which will shred your HP if you haven't started ZSD. Projectile moves would also clip you, so something like the Icicle Breath which summons like 5 projectiles can completely delete your HP if you have Rocksteady on.
One shudders to imagine what thoughts lie behind that expressionless face of that hunter
Good news is we finally got a release date for wilds
Heck yeah!

@@azzyglspinning blade mode is busted for part breaks tbh, the amount of small numbers it does helps
