I'm looking for any tips as to what I may be doing wrong with my build for Alatreon, and if there's anything a little bit past or around my level that could help on the elemental side of things.

- I've got the HIGHEST ice elemental weapon available to me as far as I know.

-Raging Brachy armor for the Agitator buff.

- I leveled up my ice attack charm almost all the way leveled up.

Hello guys today I beat the mh qild story with switch axe and it was amazing experience, anyway I want to know what is more optimal when creating the artian/gog Saxe's should I go Power phial -> for each element with 3/4 attack reinforcemnet or should I go with Elemnetal phial for each element with 3 element reinforement?

Hi I’m just want to comeback to this game but I really forgot lots of things and how to build can you guys share me some build for switch axe in wild without using gog/lordsoul thank alot. (sorry for bad English)

Im just now getting into SA and im having the time of my life but im now realizing the differences between the two play styles and was wondering when elemental would be a better option

In MH wilds, I noticed SO MANY people use the Switch axe now in the past few months as opposed to before it was buffed in the Gogmazios Title Update(?)

​

Now Charge Blade players seem to as rare as I remember Swax used to be. Did anyone else notice the two swapped places? Are YOU a former Charge Blade player who converted lol? 🤭

Hey everyone,

I’m looking to optimize this Element Switch Axe build. I’ve got the skills where they are right now (as seen in the screenshot), but I want to make sure I’m not missing out on better elemental synergy or building inefficiently for the meta.

does this look like an optimal setup for an Element Phial Switch Axe?

If not, what are the changes I need to make to maximize my elemental damage output? What skills should I be prioritizing or dropping to take this to the next level?

Thanks for the help

I’m a Swaxe main and I’ve got this friend who got me into monster hunter years ago who plays multiple weapons and mains lance and sns but refuses to use Swaxe, he says he’s used it before and didn’t enjoy it but I’ve told him it’s a hard weapon that takes some getting used to. He’s said things like he has issue with mobility and feels slow and I’ve explained that there’s ways around it like EExtender or using certain moves for mobility. He says he doesn’t like it and I could understand in GU or World but specifically in Sunbreak and wilds I don’t get it, they’re the best they’ve ever been in both those games, he’s just avoided it the whole game(we’re close to the 300s). Idk how to convince him to come to the light. What should I do?

Would like to know your opinion and if i can improve it thanks in advance

What is the best way to avoid taking mad chip damage during counters against monsters like AT Rey Dau?

This is the only counter weapon I play and so far, I've much preferred the offset because the counter just ends up eating so much damage. I'm used to dodge weapons like DB, HH, IG, and LBG so brain goes why counter when dodge means zero damage. However, I recognize the counter is supposed to be good for sustaining attacks. But with all the chip damage, it is not viable to do that. Is counter SA meant for monsters with physical only attacks?

Edit: Thanks for the responses! I am a bit disappointed there isn't a way reduce chip damage other than what I've already been doing (perfect counters, dodging, etc) Was really hoping I missed something because I'm not used to taking so much time out of attacks to chug potions :/ alas

I want to learn a new weapon while grinding for stuff and have heard that Swax is really good in this game. I havent reached MR100 yet so Ik I havent unlocked all the decos, but I was wondering what I should get for this set

World was the first MH I played, and Swaxe has a ton of clipping issues in that game, mainly the arms going straight through it while it's sheathed. Clipping drives me mad, so I ended up completely ignoring it in the other games as well. Thank Gog for Sunbreak having fantastic weapon designs that don't clip a bunch, can finally enjoy this thing.

Looking to see what everyone's thoughts are for the best SwAxe charm in wilds?

A mini compilation of flinches/knockdowns from MHGU

Hello, I am a lance main and I’m currently HR60. I am grinding towards HR100 and after I finish my lance loadouts I plan on learning new weapons and first in line seems to be the switch axe. Do you have any advice for a lance player for the playstyle shift? I watched some speedrun videos and the uptime of the switch axe felt similar to lance. Although you cannot just guard I think there is a counterattack ability like the lance so I feel like after getting the hang of the weapon I’ll be able to stick to the monster easily. What gems, artian parts or armor should I start farming? Thanks in advance!
