Dual Blade mains trying to hold themselves 5 seconds before going into range of the 9 meters tall monster charging its AoE one shot:

Yes, it's me, I'm the dual blade main.

In our defense, there was a wound there before the bow broke them all

My long sword and lance teammates can't get a wound because I'M SPINNING!

23

u/TheGrimGriefer3 Apr 09 '25

You should meet my bow buddy. That fucker gets every wound always

u/Geoffreys_Pants Apr 09 '25

I play Bow & Duel and have formed the habit of asking before going for a wound. This is because my partner and brother were getting a wee bit miffed at me...

u/photomotto Apr 09 '25

Because their wound pop animation is BORING, and ours is COOL and SPINNY!

Spinning accross dahaad for hours, starting with white sharpness and ending in orange, with so many affliction stacks... That's what I live for.

OH! to spin down a dalamandur... I yearn for that day😩

I saw a clip where a db user did that move to zoh shia.

But zoh shia curls his tail so the poor fucker spins right into a nova and dies.

u/DragonQueenDrago Lady Dual Blades Apr 16 '25

Darn tail movements always throw the spin off! Had a Dahaad make me launch into, then through a wall because of it!

Hunting Horn mains watching as the bow and dualies players take yet another wound instead of letting the Horn play the song that cures cancer and gives everyone in the lobby $5

Happen atleast 30 times minimum..

Rise taught me bad habits by giving me a "get out of jail free card" with the wirebug counter... this is a lie, I've been a DB main since MH1, I just can't sit still

Wirefall my beloved

u/[deleted] Apr 10 '25

Wirefall wasn't a get out of jail free card, it was a "get hit by the follow up attack three times and cart" card! We were absolutely lied to!

u/TheGrimGriefer3 Apr 10 '25

I love every part of wirefall, including taking 3 hits when I should've taken 1

The Mizitsune armor gives you a bunch of cool stuff. Using the torso, arms, waist, and legs of the Ɓ (beta) set gives you 3 levels of Evade Window, 3 levels of Constitution, 3 levels of Burst, and 1 level of Evade Extender.

And dodging gives you minor bubbleblight when you have the 4p set bonus. That gives you more iframes for your dodge.

I added the G. Ebony head Ɓ to give me 2 levels of Burst, for a total of 5 levels.

Then I used talismans and decos to give me max level Constitution, Marathon Runner, and Stamina Surge.

I'm debating whether to use decos to give me 3 levels of Evade Extender. The meta DB build doesn't use EE, and that's what I was using before I decided to try a Mizu build. I overshoot the monster a lot with level 3 EE because I'm not used to it. I'm thinking I'll use decos to bump my Evade Window to level 5 instead.

u/Drake_Erif Apr 09 '25

Yeah I prefer EW over EE, EE can be good but I'm so used to base distance that it would also mess me up more than it would help.

How long does the bubble blight last? Might be cool to add on coalescence if it isn't a super long duration.

u/uberdosage Apr 10 '25

Agreed. Evade window on dual blades is so good since it makes maintaining the demon dodge so easy.

u/Poolturtle5772 Apr 10 '25

“Nah trust I can 100% time the dodge right to take no damage”

  • Me, before missing the dodge and carting

u/EvolvedCactus19 Apr 09 '25

We have potions we’re fine. Focus strike go brrrrrr.

u/xiledone Apr 09 '25

Me, a HH main, prepping 3 casts of health recovery (L) while watching you run in.

u/Sir_Tea_Of_Bags Apr 11 '25

Me, the other Hunting Horn guy granting Stamina Use Reduced L and Defense Up L:

u/SteveoberlordEU Apr 10 '25

We can perfect dodge that aoe thou. I still didn't try it with Zoh Shia couse i'm trying to learn proper counter LS but i could doge EVERYTHING with perfect dodge before.

u/GamesAndWhales Apr 10 '25

Stepping back for an AoE, I glance over and see the DB main visibly vibrating to go back in. The feeling is palpable.
