  • Hey SD,

    Is there some Function the Wii + nunchuk doesnt offer when we use the Great Sword?

    I saw some people running and Could use the charge, but I cant do it. Can you help me please?

  • @silverhedgehog192 hold your wii remote up and hold A

  • u suck balls at this game

  • @aznbros707 u mad bro?

  • U think ian is huge w8 till u see ala, jho diablos!!!

  • @bruvster2011 lol he has full vangis and other assorted armors of awesomeness :P

  • The best great sword u wanna get b4 hunting jho or ala is High seiglinde (p)

  • I'm a very low ranked player and I was wondering what weapons I should use. What hammers and great swords should I be trying to make?

  • @Kindkiller43 I'm talking about MH3.

  • @Kindkiller43 well its all up to u u can make any element of any weapon so its whatever u want to do im pretty low to im hr 40

  • That Rathian is freaking huge !

  • THE MELEE ATTACK OF THE SHOWRD  HOW MUTS IT IS ?

  • I almost always charge up to level 3, you should play with more risk dude.

  • For some reason the Rathalos kept appearing when I started doing the Qurupeco catching quest. T:<

  • @LuminousSymphony I know it's an old comment but I HAVE to explain. The environment says unstable, right? That means other monsters are on the map (even the ones you've never seen before) besides your target.

  • @ElementalX1000 lol it's okay, I pretty much figured what Unstable meant before you explained. :'D

  • Level 1 charge is probably one of the worse great sword attacks you can do 2+ Chain Attacks>Level 1 charge. 

  • you know very much from the game good tut i never play with this,but know i´m going to test it :DDDD

  • Great Sword is one of those weapons that requires a godly amount of patience

  • @Trio445

    Not really.

  • @Avian98X

    yeah after one month after commenting, its not so hard ^_^. im more of Lance/LS, but GS has its moments.

  • @Trio445

    I solely use GS.. best weapon ever :3.

  • would the slap give you a better chance of breaking its horns?

  • @XxInthecoldxX get the jawblade upgrade it to a giant jawblade and then you can make it

  • How do u get that great sword i want it sooooooo ba!

  • how do u get a long sword?

  • I was just wondering what is the conversion to the wii mote controls (there's no X on the wii mote/nunchuck). 

  • 4:04 Nom Nom :)

  • Im a big great sword fan in all the monster hunter games, but I'm not a fan of the lvl 3 charge needing to be timed. Sure the pro's have no problems, but if you're new to the monster hunter its gonna be a bit harder. Also I have a lot of issues unsheath-charging. He seems to not want to charge from the sheath stance (to activate sheathing crit skills) any issues with that?

  • noob

  • When you say the charge after the Slap makes more damage, i found out that using CC1 you need to Press UP + X as X alone will just do a regular charge.

    You will notice as the charge animation is way different when you do it.

  • how do you know when to block or when to roll

  • Comment removed

  • try the switch axe. just change it to a sword and you have a fast and more powerfull greatsword and axe! i bet you would defeat it faster that way. i always use switch axe! of coures i try different things but the switch axe is my favorite.

  • thats one f***ing big rathian

  • holy crap giant f***ing rathin

    

  • Freestyle All day! :D

  • BTW Dissonance the trick to the flash bomb is to throw it the direction the monster is looking at, not directly at the monster itself.

  • @overminding It used to be, but the range of flash bombs has been drastically reduced in Tri.

  • @SocialDissonance Lol, as far as i know, a flashbomb to work in real life you must look at the bomb not get it thrown at your ass

  • Did you ever have any problems getting the Rising Slash to work. A + X doesn't seem to do anything but the Side Slash.

  • @XxMadmaNxX Nope, never really had a problem with that.

  • @SocialDissonance you forgot 1 thing. 1 of her attacks she flies up like shes going to another area but she doesnt then flies in a circle and comes down in a speed dive. i almost got hit by that a few times while drinking potions.

  • @zarrurer12 I think you mean the Rathalos.

  • 0:18 do u know how to do that with wii remote

  • Hey Social Dissonance,

    I've noticed in all your videos that you have a larger health bar then me. Is that due to youtube/your set up, or is that something you get via armour, or decorations?

  • @Craigus1337 certain decorations or charms can increase your max health. but the best way to increase max health is to use a max potion or eat a meal before any quest

  • @Craigus1337 You have to eat at the felyne kitchen. Usually meat+anything will give you a health boost.

  • @SocialDissonance Can you please do a deviljho tutorial with a greatsword?

  • @Craigus1337 A bit late, I know, but meat (not fish) and dairy will give you health boost+40 and def (M). Meat and meat will give you +50 health boost and meat + drink (wine or cola) will give you +40 health boost and att (S).

  • That is one BIG rathian.

  • You're missing the inifinte charge combo. Do a normal charge, the do a slap, then do another charge and you can combo it inifinitely. BUT you mustn't hold the analogue stick at all, just leave it neutral. Otherwise you'll go into the twist charge.

  • what would be best for fighting a barroth?

  • @minkerdinke i find lance is best. keep guard up until it charges you, then release gaurd get in 1 or two stabs, then reguard. if you get the chance, do a guard attack or two whenever you can. they are weak, but fast and you dont lose guard when doing them

    bring dash juice. not neccesary, but really helps

  • @minkerdinke lol i forgot to add. i did the double barroth capture with the Shark Attack lance (250 atk, 450 water, 2 slots and blue sharp) in about 25 minutes, solo.

  • How do you get that sword? By upgrading it each time ? ?

    + I want roay luthroth armor... Is it hard to get? I mean, i can get it but i need a Thingy to succeed the upgrade :( , The luthroth (royal) one i can get all the materials of the creature? ?

  • i need a wii turtorial man haha

  • Hey bro you really cool wants your id for online cuz it be cool to play with you.

  • OMG lol i was on a quest to capture a qurupeco for the first time I thot it could only call a great jaggi but it ended up bringing this beast gave me a hard time lmao!

  • nice video bro ive been looking for somone to help make vid's i wanna start making low gear scale and item vids, on my alt i showed online lag with great jawbone and peco armor if you wanna help me just say so

  • How come your Cha-cha doesn't die 24/7? mine dies like 43 times everytime i do a quest :S

  • i have saints longsword at hr 11.

    ask me how i got it?

    i hacked

    then got banned

    then unbanned myself and made new save so i play online legit and use old save for offline rarely using hacks at the time though

  • Greatsword is a fun weapon, but it's a bit more difficult than Lance or Sword/Shield and Hammer. Aside from the unsheathing attack, GS is your best friend when you can learn to control stamina consumption while rolling by timing your rolls until they are absolutely necessary. This is because the Greatsword can do attack cancels with rolls which can make it surprisingly graceful if you know how to wait to strike.

  • hey i might be getting this game tommorrowif anybody is willing to help me out give me there id i dont have wii speak because the sound is horrible but i do have an phone and i have and usb keyboard so just pm me id cause i need to learn how to get started

  • greatsword seems like it is kinda pointless....doesn't look like it is doing damage at all.

  • lol i kept holding my huge charger strike till it automaticly makes my character hit, i thought that was MAXIMUM damage lol and what des sheathing meen?

  • im having trouble finding the bones i need for the valkrie, i think its giant or large bones, anyone help

  • @GUITARFREAK123345 i dont know how to find 'giant' bones but large bones u can find online from like big monsters like i thik gobul or lagiacrus well monsters tht are easier than others to beat i had i think 24 large bones and i sold 14 so i now have around 11 after i killed a gobul and amde some weapons

  • @Hobnomb i dont have tri, i have freedom 2

  • @GUITARFREAK123345 wait then why the hell are u asking this on a monster hunter tri vid?

  • @Hobnomb ummm, i dunno lol

  • explained all the right concepts for the gs except u executed those head charges terribley XD. not bad tho

  • @Alateron1231 Trust Me Alloy is best. Hunter is ok... Be sure to check the skills of each armor though, to see which ones you'd enjoy... skills are semi-critical to understand.

  • @Alateron

    First of all if you were trying to spell Alatreon, you made a little mistake in there :P

    And second, ALWAYS play offline first, it's considerate to online players and you get a lot of experience that you don't get by doing online first.

  • what would be the best armour for me to get after the leather armour?

    And also do you think i should play online first and do all of the quests online and then the ones offline or the other way around. But keeping in mind i've only had the game not even a day

  • @SocialDissonance hey i have a undertaker do you think it is a approiate weapon for jhen i am equiped with defence charm so i dont have (s)Defence down and rathalos amor for (m) atack up and affinty 20% anything you recomend i change or change weapon? oh and not just sd i'm requesting any help!

  • This morning, I upswung a team mate. He connected, mid air, with a rathalos, and broke its wing + stunned it. Awesome.

  • nice! great tutorial.

    

  • wow. that's easily the largest Rathion i've ever seen....and I have 51 Rathions under my belt.

  • should i use gollem blade

    or my vulcanis?

  • @m4gicaltears Golem blade.

  • @SocialDissonance because?

    better stats/effect?

  • @m4gicaltears It's worth making because it can be upgraded into one of the best Great Swords.

  • @SocialDissonance wow....

    thats great(:

    but if i dont gonna make 1

    is vulcanis a good choice?

  • @SocialDissonance wait which one can be made into one of the best great swords? also im thinking of making one of those lagiacrus great swords, or other whys im thinking of trying to get a rathian sort of great sword

  • i tink d lions bane is much better

  • how do u stun?

    

  • @LiamOllie7777777 Hit the head with attacks that do KO damage. Probably not going to happen with a Great Sword. Easy with the hammer, kind of tough with the Sword and Shield, technically possible with a bowgun. Don't even bother with the lance.

  • @LiamOllie7777777 It's hard to stun with a Great Sword, but that slap attack that SD talked about in the video but didn't use much is the only way I think you can stun monsters with it. You can do a slap attack with the Great Sword by pressing the x button right after a veritcal/charge slash. Your character will swing it quickly with the flat side of the blade. It's really tough to stun monsters with it because it's not built for it, but it is possible.

  • u really know what ya doing... nice job and keep up the good work!!!!

  • You sead in the video that you cant stop a monster form eating, well you can. Just trow a flashbomb in front of the monsters head and the stop eating. I think you already know but I was thinking it would be nice to know.

  • Helloooo if anyone wants to hunt w/ me (including shepard :D) im HR 53 and my name is Matt. Hope ill see u there. (want my hunter id? just ask)

  • how do you film this?

  • @rathalosrevenge70 This video was made with a Hauppauge 950Q. I've since upgraded to a Hauppauge HD PVR.

  • pro seruously, my first time with the game i had jaggi armor it took me 49 minutes to kill her with bowgun -.- when i got further into the game i tried the barioth lance and killed diablos first time in 491/2 minutes. idk how you do it so quickly heh, got to HR 32 now i need a new wii so i have to restart!

  • i don´t get the new GS moves ):

    the super-duper charge after the normal charge!

  • @RageEx2 well thats the power of the enter webs

  • Earlier i did something awesome. A barroth started charging at me nearly dead, i had focus so i charged up to a level 3 charge really fast and killed it in its charge XD

  • @purpleownz176 Shoulda shouted GOTCHA BITCH

  • @RageEx2 ._. typical i say soemthing and you get highest rated and i was newB i just got the game lulz i didnt even know what a rathain was...

  • what's your favourite weapon in the game? and can you plz tell me in what other monsters does your tactic with hammer on the rathian work? PLZ ANSWER

    

  • @ThelastSpartan234 I don't really have a favorite, all the weapons are fun!

    Pretty much all the monsters, but Rathian is easiest because she's predictable and has a big head!

  • @SocialDissonance cam you headlock in tri like in unite?

  • mah fav wep so far is that hammer! :)

  • you must play fightan gaems. I hear the terms 'invincibility frames' and 'launchers'.

  • you said that any boost to the great swords multiplier is a good one. wouldnt the ame be for the sns? because if they are hitting so much any boost would be a HUGE boost right? or is the multiplier decreased for some weapons?

  • @TheLordRatatosk those buffs come in percentages, the additional damage isn't a fixed amount and thus it doesn't matter how speedy your weapon is at all. in other words, the weapon that can deal the most damage in a short amount of time will still remain the most damaging weapon.

  • im on the gobul now and i want to know what weapon to use against it i cnt use hammers well tho so wat wud be better sns or great sword

  • @tatsuke234 hey, you should always use whatever you feel the most comfortable with. weapon choice is all about opinions. though, if you like SnS, it might be good to give it a try at first, because it's a quite well balanced weapon. GS is more recommended when you can predict a monster more easily and thus have a less hard time landing your full-charges.

  • @SocialDissonance Can you tell me how to get plates. I try with the rathian a lot but can't get it (yes, of course I carve it´s tail). Thank you,

  • @jochemherz its a rare drop, just keep trying

  • i have a question, for great sword i often have trouble with some of the attacks... such as the charge, its very easy to know when to release i mean it gives you a huge window, but i just cant time it right.... should i charge with gs or just strike normally unless knocked down or immobilized?

  • hey really great videos but please also show the attack buttons on wiimote :)

  • @KyuS4n Search for "MOnster Hunter Tri Greatsword wii" on youtube and you'll get a good tutorials. Works for every weapon. Made life a lot easier :)

  • how would u do the charge attack with the wiimote and nunchuk?

  • @MasterBearr Hold the wiimote up and hold A.

  • Thanks

  • Wait! How do you do the overhead slash? Is it pressing X after the roundslash (tapping A)

  • @UnwantedSpriter X+A at same time

  • Most deaths in monster hunter tri are due to being stunned. That's why I use the negate stun armor skill. (:

  • @epicdavid Most deaths in Monster Hunter are due to being hit by monsters. That's why I learned to dodge.

  • @Ceath .. No offense.. but isn't that somewhat logical? ^^ Sorry, I know what you mean. The biggest problem is that people want to kill something in 10 minutes too fast ... I mean, in MHF I had an average of 45 minutes per G-class monster. And that was when I was able to avoiud every attack and killed X wyvern atleast 60 times.

    Good times... I guess I should do online high rank fights solo for the same deal in MH3 ^^

  • @epicdavid Being stunned? You mean K.O-ed? being KO-ed come from chained, being chained comes from bad position or getting hit by a "SUPER EASY TO AVOID BUT WILL CHAIN YOU" attack ... or fighting Barioth. Everything boils down to the players knowledge of: X slash takes 1 sec, monster is open for 2 ... is it worth doing 2 slashes or run off?. Knowledge of wyvern, Knowledge of your weapon, common sense: and the only reason you can die is because online players hit you into a combo.... ugh

  • i got a rust shard great sword and upgraded to ancient greatsword but man i suck with, it longswords ftw

  • wow that little dizzy thing is soOO SHORT....in freedom unite its SUPER LONG....its so long that she could have sat there and taken a nap and you would still be dizzy

  • I've been using GS since I first started so far I haven't used a charge unless it was sleeping. But all your other tips about sheathing and dodging has help me tons. Especially fighting Raths killed my first Los using a Lagia Blade thanks to you.

  • Can you show us a video of you with the "ideal" greatsword skills?

  • you didnt explain the second chargable smahs - its way more effective than the normal 'holding x' one

  • whats the name of the GS thats on the cover of the game? it looks beast >:D

  • ihope to be getting a classic controller today -_-

  • The most exciting way to dodge a roar us when your a hammer user and you get hit by a great sword. Happened to me today when I was fighting the barroth.

  • i feel like im the only guy who uses the numchuk and wii remote...

  • @souldude151 No Worries! Thats all I ever use. It's how real Wii'ers play!

  • @souldude151 me too :C

  • uh ok

  • i wanted to know the fastest way to kill rathian wha sword do you recomend??

  • @Justin1monsterhunter New video coming up. It's amazing. Watch it when it comes up.

  • Would you recommend the great sword for this fight, Or are you just demonstrating it's possible?

  • @Android480 the latter. Rathian is doable with any weapon, really, as soon as you get her movements, she's easy to predict.

  • @urukzpower yea i relized that once I kicked her ass after watching Social's new tutorial. I feel stupid now.

  • @Android480 don't feel stupid for being new at games. i feel ashamed i ever had problems with barroths too, even with lances. we all have our diffucult humps we need to cross

  • how do you get your helth more then your stamina in the biggining when you go in to moga wods or in a guest? :)

  • @brandonjpinto95 Eat at the kitchen. Choose meat as your first ingredient.

  • great tutoriales dude. fast question. Can u cut a tail when the monster its death ??

  • @kandenelite Nope, you can't cut/break anything after a monster has died. That'd be too easy :D

  • lets say you have autotracker and capture guru, will the monster shaped icon flash when its ready to be captured?

  • @minun946 Yes it will. Autotracker treats the monster as being paintballed constantly to you on your screen.

  • @minun946  yes

  • i really hate getting trampled by raithian when your under her.

  • Why did u not use bombs to start the fight?

  • Lol, why is everyone who uses the great sword so cocky? They think that just using it makes them good.

  • Generally speaking, Jaggi GS --> Ravager Blade --> Siegmund --> High Siegmund. You might want to use a diff. GS between Sieg. and High, but the damage calculator tends to favor Siegmund and its upgrade until G rank (except there is none in tri). Also, the head is the weakest area, and I see you were hitting the head. Try staying a bit more to the outside and nailing the head with one shot (don't hold down R) then roll through and put away. Repeat this quickly for fast kills.

  • Could u do maybe a slightly more updated rathian tutorial with something else like a hammer or sns?

  • @RageEx2 Actually.. she still has balls :(

  • I know what critical draw is, but i am a bit confused when it comes to the great sword. When sheathed, if you go directly into a charged slash, does that also make it critical? Also, how does it work, would it turn the final damage output critical, or what it would do normally critical. As in, does it apply the critical modifier to the slash before adding the charge multiplier, or does it apply the charge multiplier, then the critical multiplier?

  • @Omegadragon4 Yes, unsheathing into a great sword turns the charged slash into a critical.

    All a critical attack does is add an additional 1.25x damage multiplier into the damage formula. Due to the laws of multiplication we don't need to worry about where in the formula it is, it's just an added multiplier!

  • @SocialDissonance Ah, well, that must really make the damage output truely massive, especially with a weapon with a very high sharpness.

    God, i feel so stupid for not remembering the laws of multiplication >_>

    Thank you for the help though!

  • How do you know when a monster is really weak in the map? They say if you paintball it if it is really weak it blinks on the map is that true?

  • @Suprstephen You need to have Perception +10.

  • Fantastic tutorial! Is there any useful way to get equips easily? I'm currently and uber noob at HR 5 so I need quite a bit of help ;D

  • @SiLeNtDo0m Best thing to do is just focus on either one armor set or one weapon at a time. If you get bored of hunting the same monster, take a break, but go back at it until you can make the full set.

  • @SocialDissonance

    Ok ty.  I've got half the Jaggi set already so I guess I'll keep beating him them.

  • @SocialDissonance hey can u tell me the best elemental lance at hr 4 to kill lagiacrus? im using the qurupecco armour

  • @demolition000 he is weak against fire if that helps

  • @demolition000 There's really no good elemental lance available unless you do the "blood sport" quest online for Byakko.

  • @RageEx2 then u sliced...oh crap O_O

  • 01:44 OH CRAP YOU SLICED HIS BALLS GOD DUDE THATS NOT COOL,I know your trying to kill him buts thats just un called for...

  • how to get better items (sword armor and the ch cha mask
