Are you sure? Unless you're seriously over levelled, against the final boss, as well as the 'secret' boss, after a certain point, you kinda just have to spam dust of life until a kinship is ready to go, then repeat.
@@MayHugger (sorry for the late reply UA-cam just sent me the notification) Well I did say some of the hardest fights but in my opinion: There’s a soft cap of level 50 before the final boss, you can get higher but it takes forever. So I would imagine the target levels for balance on the fight are 45-50ish. As for the BBEG at the end, I was level 72. Tenacity is a hell of a drug, and you can’t die from a head to head. So all in all, the fight wasn’t all that bad and my rider put in work. Sure there were turns near the end were I needed to heal but one evasion riff gives you a free turn the next turn (cause of tenacity on everyone but the hunter…who generally won’t be one shot). The second time I fought him in the SEL I was max level so it went pretty smoothly.
@@MayHugger Well if that's the reason then I don't really understand 'cause there were PvP in the first game too and I didn't heard about GS skill being OP, cancer or anything
@@Mendas_Drainova They did considerably buff our character in this game, cause you can do a ton of damage to other people with Charged Slash now, you might’ve been able to one shot if we had it now.
Pair this with a hellbreaker + thousand blades nergi/bloodbath to make those hits even meatier. Both statuses lower enemy defense. Just a suggestion, but it could be really cool.
there is another way to do this build with Rath Soul armor. it gives 3 of the 5 skills and you can get a charm with non element and vicious on it. though either way, being a mini reverto is just beautiful, though slightly not as cool cause we cant bisect a monster
Hmmm might need to replace my sword and shields with ol'reliable great sword. Meaning my weapons classes of choice would be Great Sword, Hammer, and Gunlance
I've been wondering that for a while. I have pretty much every skill on charms, except for Non-Elemental, which I doubt exists on charms. Anyway, I've tried to stack skills and it doesn't seem to work.

You need to either farm the item nodes in the world or bottle caps. When at the cat vendor hit R if on switch not sure the pc button and it takes you to the unlimited buy tab, the charm is random though so it could take a very long time if you not bad luck

No. I'll be honest I'm not sure how you got this idea, but no. He's saying that the Nergigante armor is custom built to be the perfect base. However if you have the ideal charm then you'd want something like Grimclaw armor or Bloodbath armor.
@@eventideagentm7223 it can, if you use bleed and seregios' bellow gene or a super whetstone. But hammer still hits harder than GS and can much more easily hit the cap of 9999.

I’m actually doing about 1/2 to 3/4 of the damage reverto does
So what you're telling me is that you can basically have TWO Revertos?
2 for the price of one but three with glavenus
2 revertos...
Jo.exe stopped working
we can have two revertos when we get to do ground slash as well
@@jonathanlongmore9463 Is that a great sword tail or a longsword tail? Well, I suppose either is still Reverto.
I love that even in Stories Non-Elemental is still the way to go with Greatsword. And just feels right.
i'm sure it was on purpose. why else is Reverto weilding the Impudent Chaeda? NE for the win
Glavenus watching this being like: free advertising
I love that the riders are actually super relevant now and even in some of the hardest fights in the game don't get reduced to heal bots.

I just wish there was a 2 charge block single target attack such as what reverto has as well or instead of the wide slash
There was in the first game.
@@MayHugger Still don't understand why they removed it for 2. It was really cool to go with all those techniques, and the animations were nice too

Pair this with a hellbreaker + thousand blades nergi/bloodbath to make those hits even meatier. Both statuses lower enemy defense. Just a suggestion, but it could be really cool.
Reverto is my monstie now.
there is another way to do this build with Rath Soul armor. it gives 3 of the 5 skills and you can get a charm with non element and vicious on it.
though either way, being a mini reverto is just beautiful, though slightly not as cool cause we cant bisect a monster
Hmmm might need to replace my sword and shields with ol'reliable great sword.
Meaning my weapons classes of choice would be Great Sword, Hammer, and Gunlance
As soon as I realized Charged Slash did the same damage as TWS but targeted parts, I dont think Ive used it since
Great now I can match 0.000001% of Reverto damage
Reverto using his ultimate against the secret final boss is so satisfying I highly recommend it
It wouldn’t be a good monster hunter game for josh if the great sword wasn’t living up to its name
That explains why i see so many Japanese players walking around with a GS
Josh will really find unlimited ways to embody the "great" in Greatsword.
I just so happen to have a Vicious (XL) + FurySlash (XL) talisman, so I'm sticking with the Bloodbath+ armor.
Speaking of Bloodbath, I found a Tenacity charm. Are there multiple levels of Tenacity or only one? Thinking of using it in my set.
I've been wondering that for a while. I have pretty much every skill on charms, except for Non-Elemental, which I doubt exists on charms. Anyway, I've tried to stack skills and it doesn't seem to work.
Josh's Title of the Video:
"Monster Hunter Stories 2 Best Greatsword Build"
The actual title of the Video:

Best weapon in monster hunter s2 is Reverto
"Oh sh!t there goes africa, geuss I need to try harder not to sneeze."
*I'VE RETURNED!*
my armor set/battle strategy is more of a defensive build but now im reconsidering... 🤔
Now you just need a monster that heals and buffs you i.e. a support monster to assist you in GS/Hammer shenanigans.
aptonoth/ceros?
This... This is what I need! "You just got to Ena's village..." I'll get there one day!
So two Revertos for the price of one.
What I really missed was the: "owhhhhhh yes!!! My fellow hunters"
Just beat the story! This hypes me to no end!
Too bad there’s no ROCKET POWERED GREAT SWORD in stories 2
Yet
Remember that there also wasn't one in World when it came out.

like qurupeco who naturally give buffs
my favorite armor to use with GS is the Rajang armor with an all out charm and the damage is insane
What is everyone's favorite weapon in MH Stories 2?
Sword and shield for me and sometimes Gunlance
The bow. Sadly the gs does more damage, so i mostly use the gs lol
I prefer greatsword and sword and shield honestly
Hammer all the way. Landing those Spinning Meteor crits is to addicting.
Hammer
How do you find a high rank nergigante?
Elder lair z9
im just gonna go with the bloodbath armor and sword
At level 70 with the grimclaw tigrex hammer's blastblight chaser+ and a teostra to proc blastblight i hit a 5500, be fun to see a video on that
is the hammer maxxed out? 5500 crit or no crit?
@@PrincessArielAngel the hammer is level 5, crit 5500 with blastblight and defense down on the target, 4900 with just blastblight. Non crits are pretty rare if running crit xl on armor and weak pt xl on necklace

Minor correction here but twosixnine and yea they both have been busting out insane builds
Sadly this means everyone is gonna use a greatsword. I think I'll hang around with HH and Bow since those have been my mains in the main series for years.
im one who prides myself on being different and standing out from the crowd so i think i'll stick to my HH, Bow and SS
seeing that you were at 1 hp chaining HtH wins in the video, can you fit in heroics instead of something else here?
pair this build with an Aptonoth, for the gaurenteed crit on the downed monster after Kinship attack.
You spend all your kinship after a kinship attack so you’d have nothing left to fuel a charged hit
@@Duckelknuster Yeah I forgot it stops you from switching your monstie to another cuz aptonoth is also on the ground, but in Co-op with a partner with Aptonoth it'd be great.
@@Missiletainn I did that lets just say whatever is left . . . won’t be much of a threat
Quick question... how did you get the fang on your character's mouth at the beginning of the video???
would having a setup with salt in the wound on the charm and crit be better?
Crit after applying bleed though
Ooh let's see team darkside beat that hit.
Does anyone knows what good genes I would need if I want to make my Fire Palamute an explosive doggo?
probably genes from the bomber mostie or teostra
Hear me out... Aptonoth, Slip and slam +HtH xl + this armor set and weapon.
Spam the kinship to keep the monster down and smack the monster when it's down.
One small problem.
Even if you have the charge block to use Charged Slash, you don't have the Kinship to activate it right after using Slip and Slam.
@@AzureGhidorah maybe use gunlance first? I've been using gunlance kinship and aptonoth for a while. I may not do much damage but the monsters/deviant/elders are always down and I never lose any hearts only health when I head to head. But it all comes back right away.

I use the tigrex sword and it was so pricey and I think it was worth it but I took me almost a hour to get the stuff manly the tigrex scalp
