My favorite is the Lightbreak Axe (Raging Brachydios) because the unique design of the sword mode having a "hammer-head" tip. Not only does it look and feel brutal, the blast elemental proccing during a Zero Sum Dismount hypes me up to no end.

Same! I love seeing the blast followed immediately by the final discharge, followed by "Part Broken"! Switch axe has been so cool for so long it's insane!

Axe of demons was top dog for raw damage with non elemental boost, before iceborne of course. I love the kjarr bomber swax, 1015 raw, 390 blast and max blue sharpness, can't use handicraft on it though 😢

A marketing move might be to add ‘in 2021’ in the title because iceborne metas can be very different depending on when in the year 2020 you’re looking at (ranging brachy, the black dragons, frostfang giving hammer mains slugger secret, etc). Players who look this stuff up in the first place are sensitive to release dates imo, just a thought!

That's actually a very solid move, I have a side project channel for the YuGiOh TCG and those videos are ALWAYS time sensitive - due to card release dates, banlists, etc. If they were to make arch-tempered Alatreon, for instance, that could make a lot of these lists somewhat obsolete. Thanks for the tip!

My favorite Switch Axe in base MHW was the Power Smasher II (bone Switch Axe's final upgrade) It boats decent raw for base World standard (190). Natural ~25 hits of blue and maxed at blue so no Handicraft needed. Practically infinite blue sharpness with Master's Touch, which was really easy to get due to the weapon having innate +10% affinity and being a R6 weapon (more augmentation slots). The weapon comes with the unique Dragon Phial (420). Means it's the only weapon in the game that benefit both Dragon Attack AND Non-Elemental Boost AT THE SAME TIME (your Dragon DMG is on the phial instead of your weapon so your weapon technically remains Elementaless). It has Average Elderseal which is very helpful, and can becomes High with that Lv3 decoration slot that it just conveniencly possesses. That weapon was simple in visual design yet so beautifully intricate in function In Iceborne I switch up my choice alot, but my favorite is probably Alatreon's Black Harvest due to its high flexibility. While being pretty much unusable for Dragon-immune monsters, against everything else you can adjust the frequency of your Axe or sword attack depends on the target. Having such high amount of purple and 2 slots means I'm free to use whichever set I want and not having to worry about sharpness. I can buff up its raw for monsters with low-decent Dragon weakness, or really pump that Dragon element to skyhigh if my target is Dragon-weak. It's such a cool weapon
@StormEcho
Жыл бұрын
100% agree with you on the coolness of high raw + NEBoost + Dragon/Element phial, it's a sick combo that makes you strong no matter what! Weak to Dragon? Activate sword mode! Otherwise, pound in with the NonElement Axe! My favorite part of Dark Harvest is, as with all Alatreon weapons, the essentially infinite purple. Feels great to only sharpen like once a hunt!

Is it bad that i’m still rocking the Xeno’jiva swaxe? I’m trying to find a set that is comparable to the Max Wide Range, mushroom eating skill. I’d have to post the build, but it’s become integral to my build; Which is High Dmg and Support/Heals.

Safi and Kkarr both got left out because I don't like the RNG and Siege mechanics - it makes getting a specific one harder than crafting a fatalis or alatreon weapon. If you DO manage to get one and max it out, they are quite good - usually around Lightbreak / Alatreon for power level!
