What can’t it do?

mobility

Arguably more mobile than dual blades

cutting tails

Sword

KO

Shield

has jumping attack

can block

can now perfect block/ parry

iframes

Boo hoo it has short range but that doesn’t really matter

You are objectively right

MH games have souped everything up though, so basically all weapons are capable of doing everything thanks to abilities and such

Poisons, stuns, exhaustion damage, breaking parts and cutting tails is all doable thanks to the new mechanics like grappling and abilities.

I guess everything can’t block but I wouldn’t ever block if you are really good at the game anyways

I don't like it because all of the normal slashes feel the same and i don't like when a weapon has a bunch of moves that are all the same thing.

damage

It cant be as cool as Lance

one handed shield looks lame and not as cool as Katana or two handed greatsword.

AI-ass response that doesn't have context or a clue
The fuck is an "Ability" fuck off

The skills you nigger sorry I haven’t played since world because who gives a fuck anymore

what skill lets a Hammer cut a tail?

Arguably more mobile than dual blades

its less mobile than both DB and IG (especially modern DB). probably LS and Bow too, but they have more commitment on attacks

cutting tails

not with that reach

KO

not with that reach

has jumping attack

has a crutch

can block

only if youre homosexual

iframes

nothing special nowadays. they be giving everyone iframes now

biggest detriment is most of the SNS's designs look boring compared to other weapons.
also low damage in every game that isnt world

Lance is pretty cool, countering is better than SnS but Wilds SnS seems broken. In Wilds and rise I’ve drifted away from insect Glaive and Dual blades (mainly worlds) and gone more towards SnS and Lance.

There’s something extremely cool about fighting a giant monster with classic sword and board

can block

only if you're homosexual

Wilds makes blocking actually good now. No damage AND little to no stamina damage AND it can lead to a clash for free damage? Wilds might've made blocking more powerful than dodging.

not blocking to get the perfect guard buff for more dps

ngmi

It doesn’t have the verticality of insect Glaive, sure, but at least in wilds SnS can slide (using no stamina) and reposition around while attacking.

cant cut tails

Skill issue

can’t KO

Skill issue

blocking is gay

Perfect blocking/ countering is not gay, that’s cope

give everyone iframes

True, the only thing SnS is really missing is hyper armor

>cutting tails

not with that reach

>KO

not with that reach

Are you paralyzed and playing with only your mouth?

I've been maining S&S since the beginning and I'll never give it up.

Can’t wait for layered weapons in Wilds

It doesn't require a lot of resources for upgrading right?
That alone is the only reason I used it over anything else because there's much less grind that way.

It can’t be cool

Can't have fun playing it
Can't look cool using it
Can't ever beat allegations of being a shitter who has to chug potions without sheathing
Can't ever be as cool as switch axe
Any other dumb questions SnSnigger?

What if... Charge Blade, but completely uninteresting?

bravo crapcom
don't waste your breath on >muh pre-4 games, SnS was still lame and boring then, it just managed to trick saps like OP because it wasn't getting utterly mogged by CB

Cringe Blade

Cringe and Cringe

no thanks

Perfect blocking/ countering is not gay

pure cope, blockers be swallowing more cum than gemma

Nothing of that matters when the greatsword is one of the easiest to execute and learn, safest to pilot and highest damage dealing weapons as an alternative.

But can it oil up?

complete dogshit in basegame

start showing promise in the expansion, and gives the weapon some identity

new game comes out that throws everything we've learned about how improve the IG out the window and starts from scratch

go back to step one

We've been through this song and dance like 4 times now, what the FUCK is capcom doing with this weapon???? just makes the assist kinsect the default one and have it shit out essence clouds at this point; theyre never going to settle on an idea for this shitstick

Best and most fun weapon in Wilds

Best and most fun weapon in Rise (completely different from Wilds)

Best and most fun weapon in World (completely different from Rise)

Best and most fun weapon in <game> (completely different from <other game>)

What's the problem? IG GODS run this series.

Sword and Shield is the weapon of a hero.

Yeah, a hero uses a sword and a shield, that is why heroes use Charge Blade. SnS on the other hand is a weapon for children who can't wrap their head around the complexities of CB (hint: charge the energy into the phials)

Charge Blade is the weapon of the hero from an ancient civilization that died but left behind his legacy for the Sword ‘n Shield GOD to carry.

They made all the weapons too complex. I just wanna unga bunga and I have fewer options now cause I'm autistic and if I play something that was simple in past gens and is now a swiss army knife, I feel like I'm not playing optimally by not using the full moveset like the counters and extra super charge on the GS, but also I don't enjoy those additions. The weapons felt better when they were simpler.
GS should only have 3 charge levels like it did pre-4.
Long sword should still be where it was in FU.
If I wanted to play Sekiro, I would just play Sekiro.

SnSfag literally admits CB is a hero's weapon that someone else couldn't figure out how to use properly

glad we are in agreement

most "complex" weapons in wilds are actually very simple. they all boil down to spamming something, whether its strong descending slash, wyrmstake full blast, full release slash, TCS and shoulder tackles. the rest of the moveset is just there to optimize your spamming, anon. stop being a crybaby

The charge blade was why his civilization fell. He couldn’t defeat the evil monster. But the sword ‘n shield will. Because while that Charge Blade was busy reloading his phials, trying to get his shield charged in his GIMPED Sword ‘n Shield mode, the TRUE Sword ‘n Shield was mounting the monster, perfect rushing the monster, sliding out of harms way.

trying to get his shield charged in his GIMPED Sword ‘n Shield mode,

you charge it with elemental roundslash, anon, which has a GP and does lots of damage. of course, the regular charge->element boost in wilds also has a GP. i already know that you don't know anything about how charge blade works, you didn't need to demonstrate for me. i know this because you are a SnS-wielding shitter.

his civilization fell because the instant he connected the final element discharge, every woman on the planet became pregnant with his child at the same time, thus dooming the generations to die out due to a lack of diversity. charge blade has that effect on women

You IG mains always complain. I've been playing lance since Tri and this is the first game since that gen Capcom let it be decent. At least you guys got to be OP in base 4 and mid tier everywhere else.

charge blade is the actual uninteresting one.

which has a guard point

he couldn’t guard point the scripted AoE nuke move LOL.

IG

tri

???

holy shit gunlance is confusing in gu, fu felt easier even with its limitations

no blast dash, no play. simple as. cruel of capcom to deliver blast dash to the gunlance enjoying masses then strip it away

yeah they shouldve patched in blast dash into all the old games retroactively.

Well, that's my point, I didn't really word it correctly, but blast dash's greatness has ruined gunlance in all previous entries and all future entries (or entry, for now), just for knowing what you're missing out on. Frankly, I agree with you, it should be patched in. So should full release slash

looks lame as fuck though, why would I use this instead of a gigantic sword or a gigantic axe that transformes into a gigantic sword?

Why use SNS? It's a great weapon to consider if you like watching other men fuck your wife

because looks deceive and its the biggest pitbull weapon in the series.

yeah, just like pitbulls, only low IQ tanned individuals actually like sns
