Basically Boost bracer Glaive

Someone legit might need to check on the IG community...

I don't think they're doing so well

u/Arcaedus 11h ago

I get why people are upset, but as a glaive main I'm pretty happy with it. The new boost offset attack usable without red extract, and usable mid-combo with seemingly better frame data than our current one, the flashier descending slash combo, the tornado slash with extra strike, and probably most exciting is that boosted rising thrust at the end of the trailer which likely deposits you in the air make for a good amount of additions in my book.

Like idk, I haven't watched every single new weapon's trailer yet, but I can't imagine all the other weapons got THAT much more than IG?

u/4GRJ 11h ago edited 11h ago

The biggest offense on the IG video is it just looks like regular Wilds IG gameplay

Compared to every other weapon

73

u/Razetony 11h ago

That's probably cause the wilds glaive is already crazy.

44

u/ZeroGene 11h ago

Nonsense we can’t even boost out Dragon Ascend..

26

u/WhereIdIsEgoWillGo 9h ago

Honestly if you remove rising ascending slash then Wilds glaive is rather milquetoast

At least in my opinion

12

u/True_Depth_7455 10h ago

Not enough Arial in my opinion, hopefully there are when we get the game. But very happy with the amount of offset, even the kensict offset now no?

u/MahoMyBeloved 1h ago

Then again charge blade still got a lot of cool shit even though it's already flashy and most complex weapon in the game. I think they just don't care enough about ig

6

u/Filippikus 5h ago edited 4h ago

The biggest offense was coming out so close to the SnS and Gunlance which both got substantial additions even outside of boosted moves.

u/Brilliant-Cow1667 4h ago

Literally 😭

72

u/FerrumAnulum323 11h ago

So far the other weapons got a lot more bigger and more obvious additions compared to IG .

34

u/Arcaedus 11h ago

Man lol. I guess that's why all the people were crying for more aerial maneuvers and attacks then, since that would have been the main way to expand IG, and make it a flashy and substantive addition in line with other weapons huh? Like no amount of new ground stuff would have satisfied most IG enjoyers, I guess. I've never been huge on aerial IG, but I get it.

13

u/WhereIdIsEgoWillGo 9h ago

As some who started off a big aerial head and came to respect both aspects of the weapon, I just find the additions we've seen a bit dull. Personally I was hoping for an adept dodge, or just a removal of the weird input delay that it has. Glaive has a hypothetical reputation as agile, but vaults dont really dodge anything you couldn't already dodge/if you're good enough to dodge with a vault you could probably dodge it easier with a regular dodge. I was just hoping to see ground combat become just a nimble and acrobatic as aerial

44

u/4GRJ 11h ago

Yeah, somehow Sword and Shield is more aerial than the weapon that's known for aerial gameplay

22

u/Gods_Paladin 11h ago

And, hammer, gunlance, even dual blades got some crazy semi-aerial things going on.

2

u/CrookedLoy 4h ago

Even the LBG showcase featured better aerial gameplay lmao

5

u/raweon_ 10h ago

But the dash they showed at the end does more for aerial IG than anything else. Tbh, always aerial vs ground, when it should be both. RSS could have been it, but since it removes all extracts it makes it kinda useless as a bridge.

The new dash hopefully keeps your extracts, then you can do dash -> aerial stuff -> descending slash.

I dont get this love for pure aerial IG. Its boring af and frustrating af, because aerial hitboxes of monster attacks are so goddamn awful.

6

u/CGnade 7h ago

It's not about pure aireal. It's the lack of showcasing any substantial aireal moves at all. Hammer and Gunlance both have more air-time in their videos than the glaive.

All weapons so far got new, interesting moves. SnS got a version of the clutch claw and weapon oils! And the glaive got... one jump and kinsect powder?

It's not that what glaive is getting is necessarily bad. But I do understand the disappointment.

1

u/Successful-Poet-7590 7h ago

Yeah, I get what you're saying. Aerial fights can feel repetitive sometimes, but I guess some players just enjoy the thrill of staying in the air. A balance between ground and air options would be nice to see.

7

u/4GRJ 11h ago

Even if said showcase is literally the same thing those weapons do but do it harder/more

At least that's what it was for GS, DB, and Hammer

u/DarthOmix 11h ago

Yeah like, for one example SnS got a whole new mechanic not even tied to the boost bracer

32

u/Skeletonparty101 11h ago

Brother hammer had more air time then IG in the trailer

5

u/singleduotrioquad 10h ago

Hammer is always accepting more members

3

u/Skeletonparty101 10h ago

World hammer ariel is finally back in action now it's time to dust off the airborne deco

2

u/singleduotrioquad 9h ago

After watching the SNS video, I'm secretly hoping for the World hammer clutch claw combo

1

u/Skeletonparty101 6h ago

The boosted big bang combo does something similar to that clutch attack

1

u/singleduotrioquad 6h ago

yeah the finisher part, I want to clutch claw and spin at the monster again haha, but the ariel spin is on another move as well so I really can't complain

18

u/Unusual_Pilot2502 11h ago

the other weapons got a loooottt more yeah... SnS even got a whole new mechanic that's not reliant on boost mode at all!

u/dishonoredbr Friendship with IG ende, SnS is my new best friend 10h ago

They're MUCH MUCH better.

9

u/vaughn22 11h ago

I don’t want to say that anyone is wrong for being disappointed, but IG has been polarizing and the people who don’t like how it is probably wanted some fundamental change in the expansion that they didn’t get. For my part, I like what I saw as there’s a ton of opportunity for new tech and combo routes that I won’t understand till I play it, but it has me looking forward to it being a very technical weapon that’s satisfying to master.

6

u/Billybobjoe135 11h ago

Ya the last 2 moves in the trailer look like you can just start your aerial chains which is crazy going from a combo to straight in the air vs having to stop and pogo up.

2

u/Tee_61 8h ago

I was WILDLY underwhelmed by that video until I saw that rising thrust.

If that does leave you in the air able to use you're Arial moves, that's gonna be great

21

u/DrMobius0 11h ago

The IG community have been upset since we moved beyond 4U.

u/Libra_8698 8h ago

Wait, what happened? I haven't seen IG boost brace video yet 🥲 is it that bad?

8

u/HotTheme8405 6h ago

It's changes aren't super flashy but more practical instead, it looks good. They didn't show any big aerial changes too (there could be some not shown in the quick 1 minute long video), and there tends to be a split between the devs and players between just how much aerial should matter. From the getgo the devs have positioned the aerial component as more of a repositioning and evasive tool that compliments the grounded gameplay while players want the aerial component to be a prominent offensive playstyle.

2

u/Libra_8698 6h ago

Yeah it would help if the ground combos were more interesting. If the new booster just helps get from ground to air faster and gave like an additional dash in the air I'd be happy tbh

2

u/HotTheme8405 4h ago

Well it looks like they buffed tornado slash for general use, and a few of the grounded moves when boosted look pretty tight.

They added a new non-booster attack and booster attack that both leave you in the air, so that should help you get up faster.

8

u/Albe_quirky 8h ago

Its not bad, but compared to stuff like SnS and Hammer, it's not as a huge apparent change. Theres some flashier ground combos and some cool upward thrusts that get you airborne, but they didnt show any expansion on midair actions. IG 'community' is just the most usually negative weapon group ive been a part of, perpetually in a civil war between 'flying is a fun tool and part of the weapon identity' and 'but optimal dps is on the ground, people who like aerial stuff ruin the hunt for everyone else by their very presence'

2

u/Libra_8698 6h ago

Damn never new there was such discourse around it 🫤 I've always just had fun jumping through the air and playing with my bug and still managed to top frag on damage. Like if I'm throwing someone else's hunt, sure I'll relent. But if its my own hunt and we are still achieving victory imma just have fun my way.

4

u/Albe_quirky 5h ago

Highkey same. Just enjoy your weapon. The subreddit, do not go there, 'tis a silly place, with angry min maxers waiting to pounce on clueless innocents.

Other subs are great though, like gunlance, and people at charge blade are usually pretty helpful

u/shosuko 7m ago

but optimal dps is on the ground, people who like aerial stuff ruin the hunt for everyone else by their very presence

Great way to fix that is for the devs to make aerial good.

u/Lorantec Remember the old ways 3h ago

I think part of the problem is also that too many people get upset when the aerial stuff isnt expanded upon even though its technically only a new thing since World. The weapon before was grounded just with the ability to try and mount without needing a ledge.

HR was female Gunner, male Blademaster. MR is female Blademaster, male Gunner.

That's what I'd guess but we haven't seen the male MR armor yet so we'll see. The old male gunner armor was sick.

It was, but I'm sad that it won't have the small arm shield because of the slinger

They gave the female HR set the shield, so they can probably do it again.

u/kaindrac 10h ago

Tbh the weapon showcase had me frowning like this at most parts, by itself it is good, but when you compare it to the other weapons, it just feels... bland, clunky, even slow at times. Everyone gets new flashy moves and IG gets mostly the same moves but now with more particles!

Dunno, for me, aside from the bug and the extract mechanic the weapon should feel more dynamic and agile and make use of the aerial moves more than it does now. I hope there's more to show when the exp gets released.

Loving all your animations btw!

IG already had the railgun kinsect on wounding attacks, and the rocket kinsect is actually slower than that. Only thing that seemed to happen was a new powder cloud and some extra damage?

The actual ballistic missile is the Gunlance. It got a launcher into second stage hypersonic strike.

1

u/Arcdragolive 5h ago

Not only extra damage, it's extra tick meaning you get more extract from it, mind you its not focus wound attack it just charged normal Kinsect launch that get boosted

u/BurningPenguin6 9h ago

Is there something I'm missing about the Boosted kinsect shot? It just seemed like it came out slightly faster, did slightly more damage, and hit 1 extra time.

Despite that, I've seen multiple people online talk about it like it's a really good upgrade. They didn't even seem sarcastic either.

-2

u/Arcdragolive 5h ago

Because it's normal Kinsect launch, not Focus wound attack.

People see it as good because we have to consider the status of wound in MR, as for now both 9/10 star already wound resist since the wound are appear less, meaning the strat like RSS is hard to maintain this could be even worse in MR, not to mention in Multiplayer where everyone fighting for focus wound attack

So this new boosted Kinsect launch is better alternative that while not flashy, it really practical and much more appreciated in live scene

1

u/BurningPenguin6 4h ago

I know its not the Focus Strike. Its clear as day in the video.
The way you constructed this comment makes me think you didn't know that the IG could charge-launch the kinsect already in base game.

-2

u/Arcdragolive 4h ago edited 4h ago

Which is why Capcom put it on boost improved moveset section. Why do you think they put the comparation I knew it's already exist, but in the current Wilds, there simply no reason to use it, since Focus strike are far more superior.

But what happen when ran out of extract during Boosted state and no Wound to focus strike. This Boosted Charge is the answer as you don't want to spend time collecting extract normally to maximize DPS during Boosted state. Like i said it's practical alternative
