  2. tutorial in Monster Hunter Wilds. The

    Segment details0:02–0:04 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_1
  3. Greatsword, one of the best weapons in the

    Segment details0:05–0:06 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_2
  4. game, does amazing damage. It is a very

    Segment details0:07–0:09 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_3
  5. slow weapon, but it does amazing high

    Segment details0:09–0:11 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_4
  6. damage when you get the timing right. So

    Segment details0:11–0:14 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_5
  7. the moveset with the Greatsword is

    Segment details0:14–0:16 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_6
  8. basically you've got this overhead

    Segment details0:16–0:18 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_7
  9. vertical slash combo where you go Y,

    Segment details0:18–0:21 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_8
  10. a Y, and a Y And

    Segment details0:22–0:26 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_9
  11. then you do like a spinning finishing

    Segment details0:26–0:28 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_10
  12. combo attack with that. And then you can

    Segment details0:28–0:30 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_11
  13. do a horizontal spin attack by pressing a

    Segment details0:30–0:32 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_12
  14. B, a B,

    Segment details0:32–0:34 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_13
  15. and a B like that. So that's also good for

    Segment details0:35–0:38 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_14
  16. linking chain attacks. So instead of just

    Segment details0:38–0:41 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_15
  17. doing YYY, you can do a B, you can do a Y,

    Segment details0:41–0:44 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_16
  18. link into a B, follow into another Y,

    Segment details0:45–0:47 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_17
  19. follow into a B, into a Y, into a

    Segment details0:48–0:51 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_18
  20. B, into a Y, and that way you can do like

    Segment details0:52–0:54 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_19
  21. a very quick combo. The YYY combo is very

    Segment details0:54–0:58 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_20
  22. powerful but is quite slow. So if you want

    Segment details0:58–1:01 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_21
  23. to chain attacks better, you want to do a

    Segment details1:02–1:03 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_22
  24. combination of horizontal slashes with the

    Segment details1:04–1:07 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_23
  25. vertical overhead slashes. So wide slash,

    Segment details1:08–1:11 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_24
  26. overhead slash, and wide slash. Now don't

    Segment details1:12–1:15 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_25
  27. forget blocking. Blocking is very

    Segment details1:16–1:16 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_26
  28. powerful. And you can block a lot of

    Segment details1:17–1:19 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_27
  29. damage by blocking without taking any

    Segment details1:20–1:22 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_28
  30. damage. So it's really good. And you also

    Segment details1:23–1:24 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_29
  31. get a special Overclash ability when you

    Segment details1:24–1:26 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_30
  32. do do a successful block or parry, and you

    Segment details1:27–1:29 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_31
  33. can combine that with a follow-up attack.

    Segment details1:29–1:30 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_32
  34. I also have B and Y, and if you charge up

    Segment details1:31–1:33 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_33
  35. B and Y, it will attack like this. And if

    Segment details1:33–1:36 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_34
  36. you time this with the enemy attacking you

    Segment details1:36–1:38 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_35
  37. at the same time, you do a counterattack

    Segment details1:38–1:39 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_36
  38. for bonus damage. Also, when you're

    Segment details1:40–1:41 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_37
  39. blocking, you can also do a kick. Like

    Segment details1:42–1:44 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_38
  40. that. I don't really know what that's for,

    Segment details1:44–1:46 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_39
  41. but it's pretty good. Also, rolling is

    Segment details1:46–1:48 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_40
  42. very useful. So you can roll into an

    Segment details1:48–1:50 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_41
  43. overhead slash like that and do a spin

    Segment details1:51–1:53 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_42
  44. like this. So it's very good, especially

    Segment details1:53–1:56 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_43
  45. for clearing little insects like that.

    Segment details1:56–1:58 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_44
  46. You can just spin around, one-shot them,

    Segment details1:58–2:00 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_45
  47. and do amazing damage.

    Segment details2:01–2:02 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_46
  48. And also, the best armor set that I've

    Segment details2:05–2:07 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_47
  49. found to be combined with the greatsword

    Segment details2:07–2:09 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_48
  50. has to be the Arakaajan armor set, which

    Segment details2:09–2:11 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_49
  51. gives you this Part Breaker skill bonus,

  55. enemies faster and you're gonna be able to

    Segment details2:21–2:23 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_54
  56. do an inflicting wound attack more quickly

    Segment details2:24–2:27 · rev_ed020866e8fdf6a1684d307407f65d99_55
  57. and with more damage. So we also want to
