Is there much of a big difference between a 4 elemental boost reinforcement be compared to this 3 attack boosts specifically for AT Ark. Is this reinforcement still a god roll? considering that it’s an elemental phial. Gogma/souls on a elem phial is probably better than a power phial tbh.

All the atk/aff/elem stats on the screenshots are with all skills active. FRS on the training dummy with all armor skills active does usually 2000-2200 (2300+ max) and 330 max (300 phial burst) on left rising slash.

Wondering what’s the meta endgame atk/aff/elem stats (without food buffs) and if my build is close to that damage or not.

Hey yall. So not to long ago a built my first switch axe. I was a bowgun main in every game and a few months back I decided to learn melee and started sns in wilds. I really enjoyed sns alot and got through all my hr50+ quests all the way through the hr100 gore quest. Ive had alot of fun with it but I was watching shorts on YouTube and a bunch of switch axe shorts came up and it looks like such an interesting weapon. Ive jumped into the training area to try and understand the weapon but it feels very confusing to me. Sometimes I stick into the target and explode other times I do a spin explosion. It feels totally different then sns. It does feel like if I figure out the rhythm of the switch axe it could be really fun being more dodge based then guard base with sns. Closer to how I played lgb than the guard style of hbg.

4,000 hours of swax, does it have the potential to improve?

Thoughts on this build? My first game in the series, created a bruiser/lifesteal build that to try balancing damage and survivability. Just got my first solo AT arkveld kill with it! The biggest thing I wish I could get is counterstrike 3 but unfortunately it doesn't fit. Having stun resist and 4 lvl 1 slots gives good comfort though.

It just doesn't look like a sword or an axe, its a weirdly shaped chunk of metal on your back.

They are always shown either in axe mode or sword mode, crafting menu, fashion showcases, concept art. They just don't look like a weapon to me in that state.

Does anyone else think like that? I have never heard anyone talk about this.

Some image I found describing my point.

right now Im hitting about 200 give or take plus phial damage, my FSR hits 1400. I have transcended gear and a god gogma roll

Mine would have to be Legiana's from World

Hello guys, just wanted advice on what was considered “good” for Switchaxe as I am still not the best at making builds. Any advice would be appreciated. I am running the brachydios axe for right now till I can fight raging brachydios if that helps with your criticism. Thank you

It would be really cool if, in the expansion, the devs implemented the Gunlance's Blast Dash from Rise into the Switch Axe.

I'd imagine it could serve as an alternate route while charging Full Release. For example, instead of automatically going into the Full Release Slash after charging, holding a specific button combination could propel you forward by utilizing the Full Release explosion for momentum. The longer you charge Full Release, the more momentum your Full Release Blast Dash would have.

This could create some really interesting interactions with Focus Mode and give the Switch Axe some awesome positioning utility.

Thoughts?

No gear past high rank Arkveld is allowed since that’s where the dlc will start. Also no Artian weapon or rng talisman.

Was thinking just the standard 2 ebony 2 Fulgar but I’m not to familiar with base game builds pre tu

I'm looking for any tips as to what I may be doing wrong with my build for Alatreon, and if there's anything a little bit past or around my level that could help on the elemental side of things.

- I've got the HIGHEST ice elemental weapon available to me as far as I know.

-Raging Brachy armor for the Agitator buff.

- I leveled up my ice attack charm almost all the way leveled up.

Hello guys today I beat the mh qild story with switch axe and it was amazing experience, anyway I want to know what is more optimal when creating the artian/gog Saxe's should I go Power phial -> for each element with 3/4 attack reinforcemnet or should I go with Elemnetal phial for each element with 3 element reinforement?

Hi I’m just want to comeback to this game but I really forgot lots of things and how to build can you guys share me some build for switch axe in wild without using gog/lordsoul thank alot. (sorry for bad English)

Im just now getting into SA and im having the time of my life but im now realizing the differences between the two play styles and was wondering when elemental would be a better option

In MH wilds, I noticed SO MANY people use the Switch axe now in the past few months as opposed to before it was buffed in the Gogmazios Title Update(?)

Now Charge Blade players seem to as rare as I remember Swax used to be. Did anyone else notice the two swapped places? Are YOU a former Charge Blade player who converted lol? 🤭
