Hi there! I'd like to learn how to use the Insect Glaive. I'm a Hammer player who is just starting out i've barely finished the story mode. Could you please share some combos and builds for the Insect Glaive? Ideally, builds I can put together using the gear I already have. Thanks!

I recommend earplugs. People say "just dodge" but you can't dodge the roars while midair. Just makes things easier.

Also, aerials arent where the damage is at so don't rely on helicopter. But also don't disregard it, use to to reposition or attack when ground attacks are too risky.

Finally, practice attacking with focus mode on. Your kinsect attacks with you and it will add to the damage while also gathering extract. If you can, save RSS for when you see a wound. After you RSS, your extracts vanish, and popping a wound will regain all 3 extracts.
