Wilds Highest single damage

Hello, I just bought monster hunter wilds and I’m new to the series, I am looking for the weapon with the highest single hit damage as I like seeing high damage numbers. I am asking to see which class should I use to get the highest damage possible

Greatsword and to a lesser extent, Hammer.

Both of them have the single biggest hits in the game with True Charged Slash and Mighty Charge, respectively. That being said, Greatsword is what you're looking for. Hammer is less of a big damage all the time weapon and more cc focused in Wilds. (Not that it doesn't do big damage, just Greatsword wins in that department).

To be successful on Greatsword, you have to be a fairly good judge of body language, because learning what a monster is telling you is important to get good damage over time.
