- With the PC version of Monster Hunter Rise approaching, I have decided to compile all my Great Sword knowledge into 2 videos. This is the second part, in which we're taking an in-depth look into advanced and high-level techniques / gameplay for this weapon. Hope you'll learn something new and that this video contributes to your GS skill. I'll be streaming Rise PC on / xan_mh , so follow me if you'd like to see me play live. I'll be happy to answer questions both on stream and in the comments.

Which behavior do you use for your buddies?
Follow for the dogs and prioritize large for the cats.
Greatsword guide breakdown:
5% - TCS
5% - Dunks
90% - Bro let me show you all the cool ways you can combo in and out of shoulder bash bro you're gonna love it
To be fair, there is not much to talk about the other stuff lol
This is by far the most useful no bs guide for GS. I’m excited to become a GS in MHR and use all of these
Thank you for the kind words!
I second that!
Really well done Xan. This is well-explained, easy to follow, and, most importantly, extremely informative. It's amazing how well you've managed to convey these concepts in a manner that anyone, beginner or veteran, can get something useful out of.
Double thumbs up for the narration too, Paolo kills it again!
Thank you for the kind words Four, Paolo MVP for sure!
I've been using greatsword since starting Rise, and granted, I'm not super far into the game. That being the case, I still felt like I was missing stuff after watching a few guides.
This is EXACTLY what I was looking for, and the production value is also chefs kiss. Great work
That buddy tip was really nice, thanks for this great guide man!
I am really new to GS and this videos made not only understand better the weapon but monster behavior. I've deen some improvement after playing GS and Hammer. I loved the video ❤
This was super helpful. I've watched a couple other people go over the GS but in terms of what you mention from your beginner video to here is very very informative and tbh I love that you mention which moves are clearly useless in your beginner one. Helped jumpstart me using GS even though I still need to get used to patterns.
Don't think I'll ever have the time and patience to actually learn all monster animations beyond some basic muscle memory things but even then, I still learned about the unsheathing by guarding strat, so thanks!
This video proves that button mashing is definitely not the way to play a Monster Hunter game. Great content that inspires me to try a different weapon type (gunlance main).
Honestly, I'm interested in any content you provide!
With slower weapons button mashing usually doesn't happen but with ones with faster combo's it can happen regardless of intent simply because if you don't press in the right order fast enough you end up not executing the combo's.
@@nuke2099 playing dual blades or Insect glaive can be an example of what you said (sword and shield comes into play also). I found that by being some what patient you can maximize your damage output (look at what happens when you execute Perfect Rush inputs in sequence. Just means becoming proficient in combat!
@@WillieBeW3 I was thinking of SA when I posted but after playing recently I found out that the double sweep in sword mode only needs one button press for the action and for some reason I thought it needed a press per motion. :D
@@nuke2099 That's good to know. Been trying out different weapons and SA is so satisfying. I also thought it needed two button presses, glad to know its just one. Been playing these games for a long time and I'm still learning new things. Thanks!
Wow. Easily the best adv vid for GS, one of the best weapon vids I've watched period. Keep it up mate, you earned your sub
Great guide! I've been somewhat struggeling getting into 5th gen gs after mostly playing old world gs and this really helped
These are some really good tips for the greatsword users out their. Learned a couple of things myself 👍🏻
The guard unsheathe has changed the way I play. Thanks!
You're always so amazingly thourogh with these guides! Clips that perfectly illustrate every point and not a single stone left unturned. Excellent work again, Xan!
Thank you very much BJ!
xan the man does it again
Rain man thank you so much!
I started playing mh again after a several month hiatus with the demo out and this has helped massively to prepare for Sunbreak, thanks!
definitely advices from true veteran. Great video!
I really like the GS I’m replaying mhr on my first play through I used insect glaive and I’m so used to not dodging because the leap does it for me so this guide was very helpful thanks
A tip that still works from the old world is head sniping. It’s simple to perform, simply position yourself beside or to the rear of a monster and time the charge to the turn of the weakspot. This is better if your running punish draw and crit draw on your set so you can optimize the effects of those skills
Still a useful video after sunbreak, tyty for the hard work/time u fellows put in on these
Thank you!
I was doing a few of these things but i definitely learned some new stuff lol. I was a GS main until 4th gen and after seeing the new combos in sunbreak ive since picked it back up. Thanks for the tips ^^
Holy cow this was so packed with good information. Thanks so much!!
Glad you found it useful!
Nice guide! Very informative and well-organized content. Btw I'd like to add one more step to improve on GS or any other weapons, which is to watch others' speedruns, try to understand and copy what they're doing.
Thanks mm!
I'm been a GS main since I've been playing MH, some of these techniques I never even considered before now.
That's what I love about the Monster Hunter franchise. You can play for years and still not know everything, but you also don't necessarily need to in order to succeed.
Great video. Rage Slash was a lot more fun and cinematic for me when I played the switch version, but I feel like I might switch back to TCS purely for the numbers.
5:18 nice transition :)
Greatest GS video on TH-cam! 👍🏻😁
Great vid!!! Thanks Xan sensei!
Thank you Tyfain!
This guide was the best greatsword guide I’ve seen! The part about the dogs charging their weapon with mine blew my mind! Th Al you so much! If you could make a video about which monsters I should use TCS on and which ones to use rage slash on that would be awesome
Awesome information. If only more people paid attention to guys like this..Keep up the great work!
I really hope to see more of this come Sunbreak, as you've managed to actually teach me a weapon I've previously thought I was completely incapable of learning. I could never get GS to click for me. I've been a IG, SA, CB, GL and HH player, basically adding those weapons to that list as they were added. GS was one I tried every game starting in 2 and bounced hard off of. I can confidently pick up any weapon and use it effectively to a G Rank level, except GS. At least until now. This and the basics video finally got me understanding GS, and while I'm still learning, I'm definitely not far behind my SA clear times now, which is my main weapon in Rise. I'm even beating my best times on some monsters with other weapons first time with GS.
GS is definitely going to be one weapon I use in Sunbreak when I decide to grind it's better match ups.
Proud of you
Guides have been helpful. I've been thinking to switch over to being a Greatsword main. I like the idea of 2 doggos for optimization
Extreeeemely good video guide. I even learnt a few extra tidbits. Great work.
Here we go. Hyped for this.
Okay, so now I know I want dogs rather then my cats. Even know what to equip now. Maybe some day I will be able to master TCS, but it frustrated me alot in World.
RS seems more forgiven and beginner friendly, but less strong.
Can't wait for Sunbreak and/or your next GS video. Cheers.
Yo, my brain and gamer inside thank you for the enlightening knowledge fr fr
Bro you’re a wizard. Thanks for the tips! Very informative video brotha! Keep it up 👍🏽
Having playing MHW so long, i forgot how beautiful those weapon designs used to
Hey I know you don't like Amuldron, but neither does anyone else so a monster moveset analysis video or something of the sort would be really cool.
just discovered your channel, learning 2 new weapons for Sunbreak (SnS then GS), and your video is eye opening. I am really an amateur and I am not very good with monster's patterns. If you can do few videos on monsters' patterns and positioning that would be amazing (It can be youtube shorts for instance). Like your clip at 2:28 I never noticed that Magnamolo, after a charge like this, does a slow stomp and you can do your full combo at a distance easily like this. GS is very very intimidating due to the placement!
The guard roll is insane i've never thought of transforming a defensive move into an offensive one, this will greatly increase my style of play in rise, this and figure it out how i can shorten my adamant slash dash, i still don't get it ^^.
Thumb up 👍👍
Edit: I finish watching the beginner guide so shorten the adamante slash invole to not put a direction while you do the move it as to be neutral, got it ^^.
I just let go of the analog as soon as I see the blue things starting to appear if I need to move a small distance. Works for me 99% of the time
@@theunderdog9353 Thanks ^^
@@MrEstampilleur Np 👍🏻
Go for it, more knowledge for the best weapon in the series is always needed !
woah that had a ton of great information, thanks so much !
Woooah!
What a guide!
Thank you dude. You did a lot of work right here. I really appreciate it. Cuz. most give common knowledge for nubies in general or just pretend to be professionals.
You are different. Thanks! Have a nice day.)
Thank you for the video , my issue with GS is mostly with more aggressive / faster monsters . I think that would make great follow up videos , just a suggestion though .
I watch this every week
Love the content. Excellent work putting those GS skills into words!
Top tier guide. Thanks a lot for sharing. Please do a guide (or guides) for specific monsters. It would really help to learn to read the monsters if there was a guide on patterns and attack sequences for each of them, and tips on where to stand and which moves to use to take advantage of em.
Will do some monster guides for sure!
@@XanMH1 Sweet. Please also include tips on managing the camera. I'm having difficulty trying to manage the right stick while also hitting y and b. I'm missing a lot of well timed strikes, especially TCS because my angle is off and I'm not really sure how to improve that. Is your right hand in some kind of claw grip or someth that allows you to keep your thumb on the stick while still hitting the rt/rb and y/b at the same time or something?
This is awesome... actual advancd tips. Thank you
It would be awesome to get specific monster videos showing what attacks to use in different openings.
Most informative channel I've found :D
Hello, do you plan on doing a low rank -> high rank gs progression guide? Or would you have any Gs you would recommend for each?
I thought about it for a while but no plans for it atm. I recommend upgrading iron or bone gs until you can fully upgrade narga.
Great guide bro. Good work
Ayy thank you Harper!
Thoughts on Gathering Cats? I've been exclusively using Gathering cats to get more monster parts, and I've heard discussions that gathering cats are the most useful for this reason. But as you mentioned Dog deals more status damage, which can be useful.(i just wanna hear what other people think)
So excited to see what you can do with the new sunbreak moves
Hey, great video!
Actually it would be cool to see some match up tips for the end game monsters. Like how to avoid and punish some of the moves as great sword
I think we're lacking this type of content in English.
I can’t wait for follow you on sunbreak content.
Nice video and very well explained, good job.
I’ve been maining GS since 4U and I love how I subconsciously do these things now after many hours of using this weapon.
Really and I mean really great guide man, it summarizes the playstyle and mindset of using Great Sword in a short and concise way.
Thank you for the kind words!
Good stuff, thank you for the guide!
wtf, that first trick I've been doing and I've never had a name for it nor have I consciously thought about that I've been doing it.
Thank you sensei
Awesome video. Thank you!
Best guide out there.
Hey Xan! Great video! I really want to main greatsword and I'm just curious about your approach to learning each monster that you fight in Rise. How much practice do you put into each fight that you post on your channel? Do you use any resources to learn a monsters attack patterns and movesets? Thanks in advance for any information or knowledge you can provide to us noobies!
The best way to learn monsters is a combination of fighting them a lot by yourself and looking at how other people fight it. I've put anywhere between 10 and 100+ hours into my Rise runs, but most of that is resetting for favorable attacks or dog behaviour. Learning the monster itself only takes between 2-5 hours I'd say. The only resources you can use for this are monster guides and speedruns.
never knew the double dog was more dps, insane
Please do more with other weapon types
Another xan banger
guard sheathing... of course dawg I feel so dumb like when Fry from futurama took a dump everywhere instead of the corner while in a dungeon prison. the corner of course!! guard sheathing course!! 😂 same energy
Oh wow never knew palamute scrolls were a thing.....neato!
AMAZING GUIDE
Like the NileRed of Monster Hunter.
Edited-forgot a period
I'm still a super noob with GS, but keep randomly having my next charge do a little slap instead which really throws me off.
i'm assuming its what i'm pressing but havent figured it out :(
Cant wait to get that strong arm stance later on!
You have to hold the left stick while pressing the attack button to go into the next charge. If you don't hold any direction you'll do the slap.
@@XanMH1 oh jeez, lol thanks! I'll try to keep that in mind. Started completely fresh on PC and chose GS to be a main (and dabble with ls,lbg,bow), but am struggling to be consistent. Those slaps were frustrating.
I had no clue shoulder reset the stun 😅
excellent thank you
What's your thought on using 2 trapper palicos, each with 2 separate trap skill. At the same time, our hunter carrying 4 traps (with trap tool). Wouldn't this open up at least 5-6 openings for TCS and possibly cause topple and or stun for even more TCS?
Been teaching myself great sword just don’t like any of the other weapons and I’m a beginners hunter Great Sword just feels easiest to me
Ah yes. My favoprite weapon. It's not good sword, it's not okay sword, and most fucking certainly not Long or And Shield. It's GREAT sword.
I'm assuming the threshold resets after everytime a monster flinch right?
I tried the luring technique demonstrated during the goss horag charge part.
But what ends up happening usually is that as soon as I release my charged rage slash /TCS, I still get blown away because the monster didnt flinch after landing it on their head lol. It's funny.
Yes, thresholds reset after they get triggered.
I was wondering why roll dodge was so different from World, guard rolling.
A really good guide xanbro :peepoflushed: nice and compact, perfect for a relaxing watch.
...tho where is 30 minute segment praising hunting edge :peepoangry:
I'm saving that for the 1 hour long Hunting Edge special
I suck at learning monsters lol mostly because i havent had to kill any specific one more then like 2 or 3 times yet
Ironic GS is one of the more unga bunga weapons but literally requires you learn Monster behavior/strategize
My favourite GS main Paolo xD
Paolo best GS main 😆
For a man who has never touched a playstation controller all his life, this is hella confusing. Great guide tho!
So i watched Darkside gaming do a wyvern riding monster kill only. so i decided to look up videos on getting the wyvern skill to pop up easier. Everyone seems to use the S&S skill for the example because (its the least use weapon or whatever excuse the give) I think its because the silk bind skill is so easy to use to get wyvern riding to pop up. I can seem to get wyvern riding skill to pop up well or quickly with the great sword. I attack the non quest monster and it still takes forever. I should be hitting the monster with adamant slash correct? what am i doing wrong? i generally see someone get the wyvern riding skill to pop up with 1 S&S silkbind move.
Adamant slash on the weak spot should get it in 1 hit with an endgame set. The amount of damage you do matters for the ride.
@@XanMH1 ahh ok, that makes sence. I'm just getting into high rank. Ty
Hey Xan do you have any tips to perform guard kick on 60 fps ? The timing feels way more tight and hard to do than on the switch or at 30fps where it feels like you can buffer the kick
Yeah I've noticed kick feeling sluggish on 30+ fps. I felt like delaying the kick input a little more after guarding helped me perform it faster.
Would you recommend play the game without palicos and palamutes help? Since they split the monster attention making it more unpredictable.
Yeah! That's in fact the best way to learn monsters.
I'm surprised that headturns DO work on Rise. Maybe not in the same deterministic way it was before, but at least it's a bit different from World when sometimes you're left thinking "this could have been a headturn" but the monster just turns immediately and does something else.
Some monsters have a high chance of doing a head turn after certain attacks, like Narga after double tail slam from the top of my head, but yeah nowhere near as common as in old world.
@@XanMH1 I'm kinda of inclined to think this is a good balance for AI, honestly. Not extremely chaotic like in World but still something you can call "new gen".
0:08 was that a dragon ball reference
I can't find the music that starts at 2:30. What version of proof of a hero is that?
It's the arena theme from GU
@@XanMH1 Thank you!
If I press my block button it doesn't draw the weapon on block, what am I doing wrong? do I have to turn any settings on?
Go to controls and change your player action settings to type 1. For some reason it doesn't work with type 2.
@@XanMH1 Thanks
Dark of Night: attack boost or affinity boost rampage skill?
Attack
Do you have any recommendations on early high rank gear?
Anja chest and khezu waist to get focus 3, and just keep upgrading iron or bone gs until you can fully upgrade narga.
@@XanMH1 ok thank you
What is tht greatsword at 6:15?
HOW are you doing 1000+ damage?
Who is Paolo?
Great info!
Someone call Peta.
Is crit boost good in Rise?
Can we please get clutch claw back!
#Claggers
Don't forget Rocksteady and health aug!!! Capcom pls
On point
Awesome guide too bad I'm a noob.
I really want this video to be good, but I've been playing Greatsword for years and can say, Greatsword isn't exactly like this. Most of those interactions may be RNG, it's very difficult to defend Greatsword now when they've never fixed it's real problems.That of which literally never being able to do your max damage...
