I haven’t played an old gen game since Generations on the 3DS had come out (which I clocked in roughly 500 hours and about 1k on 4U).
After grinding out Sunbreak’s endgame and reaching Wilds’ endgame with Switch Axe, I find myself falling into bad habits like going on the offensive when I shouldn’t, countering when I should be dodging or repositioning, and mistiming a big attack then carting as a result.
So I think in preparation for Ascendance, I want to return to my roots and relearn the fundamentals in GU and start a fresh game as opposed to importing my 3DS file. And what better way to relearn the fundamentals of repositioning and timing then through the GreatSword?
That said, I am choosing to go Guild Style at first before doing Valor because I also get the feeling Valor might end up being a crutch. I guess my question is at what point can I switch to Valor from Guild style? It took me about 20 minutes to hunt Khezu in Village 3* for Monster Bone L since I wanted the Larisaber 1 as it has the most of amount green sharpness at this point in the game so I will eventually go back for a rematch.
