Was my first and to this day is my one and only😂. Played all the way through world and icebourne with it as my first MH game. After watching a tutorial and practice in the training are for like 10 min learned it pretty well. Never had any issues learning it after that. I find it much easier in rise with the counter full charge attack being added
@@ParagonFury i like jhin...and i also dropped the lance in world...just something so UNSATISFYING about how much i could attack like i'm permanently edging. that's why i play swaxe, now i can blow my discharge as much as i want
Problem I have is he really doesht show how to charge the sword, just says you do it like THIS(and then there is window OVER the actual button prompts - can't actually see them) Its the one thing I am stuck on. Otherwise, its my go-to video learning the CB I mean, God Forbid they just have a move set list in the game like ANY other fighting game.
Yeah, anyone working with older processor really have heat problems running this weapon as well. Me personally, have to delete all background weapons for a cleaner run. Understanding CB and being good are two way different things, a huge part of a weapon like CB and GS is really perfecting angle of attack and monster timing/moveset... Sadly because of the massive requirements of swinging this weapon my monster pattern recognition gets a 404 and is lost when needed. I need an upgrade.
It’s really not that complicated To be quite honest, as someone who plays Charge Blade for quite some time, it’s basically a flow-chart weapon. Is your shield charged? If not, charge it. Is your sword charged? Do you think you have the time to charge it? If so, charge it. Is now a good time for SAED? If not, then waste some time by slapping the monster around in axe form, expending phials so you can keep DPS and open the monster up for SAED. Impact phials makes the process easier, but if you have an elemental weapon, then you’ll miss out on a lot of damage if you don’t have element phials.

I don't think that joy con drift is a huge problem in this, I play with the ranged weapons, and the drift even though constantly gets in my way, it still adds a fun challenge
@@agathajohannbuenorosa175it's a problem when you play CB and want to hold A for the double slash but instead your character gets made to do the sliding attack lmao. Bane of my experience.
I mean ive been playing GS since tri and im always checking out guides to see if im missing out on new mechanics. Like I world I wasn't aware of yhe slingershot shortcut to true charge, thanks random rock piles
I only started in World, mained CB then. Switched to mainly Long Sword in Rise though, I just enjoy it more right now. I feel like an "obligation" to go back to CB though, because it IS a cool weapon ... Maybe once I unlock switch skills. The default wirebug ZL+X imho is really bad, compared to Long Sword default.
VERY IMPORTANT NOTE IF YOU PLAYED THIS WEAPON IN WORLD: you can no longer guard directly after a guard point. If a move ends with a guard point, holding the block button does nothing. Holding the block button will see your character drop the shield then raise it 3 seconds later. If your guard point does not block an attack, you cannot block and wait, you need to move.
Oh so it did actually work like that in World, I was a bit confused when I started using CB here of how vulnerable I felt. What an unfortunate nerf for CB.
CB is one of those "hard to explain and use weapons; but once you know what you're doing its actually really simple" kinda weapons. Its counter also helps to make it easier to upkeep damage and performance.
@@captainsoarineagle its the same for me and blast dash. Technically not all situations call for it. . . but I love it too much to swap to charged shelling.
@@stardokplay4923 I've had the opposite experience. Been playing with charge blade since base world, understood completely how it works but all guard points I've performed are utter luck. It's disheartening to really like a weapon but such so bad at it.
This is the first weapon tutorial that going to reach highest views before other weapons tutorials, mainly because the 100 users of this weapon keep returning to watch this video.
@@Attaxalotl not lance, but switch axe or sword and shield coul be fun, hammer or greatsword too, its just that lance is not very fun rn being the least played
Maybe I overlooked you specifically mentioning it in this 40-minute guide, but for viewers' sake, 36:36 shows a good example of this: since applying the phial boost to your shield is tied to the start of Amped Element Discharge, _any_ moves that let you shortcut to AED like guardpoints or the silkbind counter are also great for quickly boosting the shield, and you don't need to do the Triple X+A combo to get that going. If the first thing you do upon starting a fight is Peak Performance the roar, you can have a powered shield within 4 seconds.
I put “arekkz charge blade” into the search bar expecting to tide myself over with the World tutorial and was instead given this like a gift from the heavens, posted not even a day ago absolute legend
Also: if you delay your x input after the element discharge II, you will do an overhead slam instead of the rising slash. The slam is a little slower but does more damage than the rising slash.
17:23 I actually found that if you go into the controls setting in the options and change the directional control settings to type 2, then you can cancel the ued into an aed by holding down on the joystick regardless of where you're facing.
I prefer type 2 for all weapons. In reality, it's best for slower weapons and type 1 tends to be more intuitive for faster weapons, like DB's. But I prefer the consistency, because I've played it so long I just always know I can rely on rolling where I want to. Type 2 is basically tank controls in old RE games. Once you get used to it, it works for any weapon more consistently, in my experience.
Been using this weapon since it debuted in MH4. when I saw it in the trailer, I knew I'd fall in love with it. I have such a hard time even thinking about using another weapon 😩 went from sword and shield to charge blade and never looked back. To all of my few, but dedicated CB lovers on this page, I salute y'all. Hope this video produces new fans 😁
I got a little discouraged at first playing it because I keep getting carted. Once I went into the training area and tried things out. Then charge blade got fun…Elemental charge blades deal massive damage... “THAT’S ALOT OF DAMAGE!” 😅
This is why I love these videos. I've been playing CB in rise for 140 hours and I had no idea that my spinning axe was building my phials and I also had no idea you could hold the button to make it spin on impact. Thank you arrekz! Still schooling my ass even when I think I've got it down lol
it was very important with focus skill during MH:WORLD... but now slap 2 load shell skill and youre good to go.. i mean you can full charge phial on yellow.. fuck hell yes.. phial goes brrrrr owh and CPP to full charge phial is kinda OP too lol
@@Trakesh I don't know about Rise specifically (waiting for PC) but it was pretty niche in world. Most, if not all, of the attacks that required Guard Up to block were easy enough to avoid anyway and there was little benefit to blocking them. Blocking a Teostra nova was cool but there wasn't much opportunity to capitalise after doing it. Much less so with the game design abomination that was Lunastra's nova.
There is one playstyle that i've been using on charge blade that i've gotten a lot of mileage out of by using the charged element slash. The CES actually comes out significantly faster when you use it to convert energy into phials, so I end up belting them out faster and more reliably than UEDs. With this, the sword mode attacks also deal phial damage, providing an excellent mix of power and mobility. The mindset behind the playstyle is essentially to constabtly be charging into CES, and using UEDs only when the monster is downed or stunned.
This weapon has been my main since 4U its implementation in rise is so fun and you always learn something new, silkbind morph advance (ZL+X) with hyper armour is Amazing! 🤩
Excellent video. As someone with over 400 hours on CB on MHW, I found this video incredibly helpful to learn the differences and new CB moves on Rise. Thanks for being the best MH content creator in history Arrekz!
Helpful tip: You can convert your axe hopper to a normal UED by delaying your button input (X +A) when closer to the ground. This is a very good tip when you know your axe hopper will miss or when the monster moves. Please upvote for visibility.
Actually, it doesn’t even convert to a normal UED, it still is an Aerial Ultra Elemental Discharge even if performed right as you touch the ground. Meaning it loses nothing from it’s damage and you gain the free mobility
The beginning of my charge blade journey in rise is a switch throwing experience. It was such a rough experience. Getting smacked all over the place by low and high rank arzuros lol. Keep at it guys, this weapon needs time to click.
@@RastaWayne-di4sj i was main GS back in world.. and even gave up trying CB and pick up bow and LBG... but i gave it another try... man i just use CB all the way through iceborn and just straight up maining in Rise
The best monster to train with Charge Blade (more specifically the Guard Points) is Volvidon, no question about it! Not only is he weak enough to not make the experience rage inducing, but Guard Pointing his rolls has a chance to stagger him (from the little phial explosion the Charged Shield causes) I once used this strategy to spam SAEDs on the poor rollie boi!
Quick note on the Axe Hopper. you can also press R2- i mean ZR while midair to quickly switch back to sword and shield mode. incase the target decided to run 5 miles away.
Even as a charge blade main, i still love watching these types of tutorials from you and gaijin. Always looks forward to learning new things. Gonna try switching up the switch skills to your recommendation and see how it goes 🙈
I just thought "I'm getting bored with LS, SA, HH, H, and I don't want basic stuff. Let's just learn Charge Blade!". Then, I realised this is a lot to handle. But I'll try learning by doing
Something I didn't see mentioned is that if you delay your AED or UED when using the wirebug leap your character can advance a few steps before unleashing the attack. That way if the monster steps away from you, you have a gap closer built into the UED.
Loving these videos. This was the next weapon I was getting into. That Teostra Charge Blade looks spicy. Some extra CB tips I know from MHW: • you can go into UED directly after the ‘store phial’ [ZR+A] if you press X+A (x2). It’s the fastest way to go from empty red phials to UED when your shield is charged. • the yellow/red charge stacks over the stored phials. So you can have full phials, charge to red, use UED, and store full phials immediately after to use another UED. • I believe in MHW the charged shield was assumed to be equivalent to 2 Guard skill levels. So players would often run 1 Guard level on their builds to have Guard lvl 3 when their shield was charged. Or for stronger monsters, they would have 3 Guard levels on their builds to have Guard lvl 5 when their shield was charged. • lastly, unga bunga bruthur!
Watching this again as a world player playing Rise for the first time takes me back when I first played world iceborne. I’m so glad you’re still here posting. Thank you.
I love the Charge Blade. I did Duel Blades, Insect Glaive, and Switch Axe up until Generations. Then I fell in love with it and have been using it ever since. Arrekz, without you and Gaijin I never would have come to understand the weapon when I was starting out in Generations, so thanks so much for that
This is why I always come to you to learn a weapon. Almost 40 mins long but I have learn so much and feel I will be a better hunter due to it! Keep up the amazing work!!!!
I'm a Fiver CB bro who started because of your charge blade tutorial video, and now I'm watching its successor. You guys are awesome...thanks for the hard work!
I decided with Rise to try out a weapon I hadn't used before. I chose Charge Blade, It took so long to learn, but now I feel like I won't ever forget it. It's so fun to use!
I remember when it was still my first time to the MH Series (MH World) and I immediately chose this weapon, lmao I had no idea what I was doing til I watched Arekz' tutorial video for MH World. In all seriousness this weapon is really satisfying to use especially when you've mastered it.
Still remember playing mh4u on my 3ds and watching your video on this weapon to try it out, and now it's been my main in every monster hunter game i play
This isn't supposed to be hate or anything like that, it's just that I've been maining cb since 4u so i noticed that you left out a decent amount of stuff(and i don't blame you, it's called the most complicated weapon for a good reason). So, since you didn't mention everything, I'm just gonna expand upon your tutorial and write down everything you missed. 1. Blocking attacks with your shield also charges your phials. I don't know if the amount charged depends on the strength of the blocked attack because i never bothered to test it, but simply blocking attacks charges phials, so keep that in mind. 2. When your shield is charged, your axe does more damage. So you should always have a charged shield, regardless of your playstyle. 3. Charging your axe also gives it mind's eye (only while actually spinning). So as long as you hold the button in axe mode, it won't bounce. 4. The aerial Ultra Element Discharge (UED) from axe hopper does more damage than a normal one one the ground. 5. If you have the condensed element slash active (sword is charged), and your phials are overloaded, your attacks won't bounce, but they'll still deal less damage, so you should never overcharge your phials. 6. Phials do fixed damage. Just like gunlance shells, it doesn't matter where you hit the monster, they'll always do the same damage. 7. Breaking parts is easier when you're axe charged, because it's more hits at once. 8. You can cancel the endlag of most moves with another move. For example: in sword mode, just press x+a or hold a to charge and keep attacking infinitely. Basically, you can sorta flow from one attack into the next. 9. Morphing advance does NOT have i-frames. It has a bit of superarmor, which means that you can power through some attacks without taking knockback, but you'll still take damage. Now here's some tips: 1. If you want your playstyle to revolve heavily around UED spam, consider going with axe hopper and the sword charge instead of the axe charge. This will allow you to get your phials easier and deal the most damage possible with the UED, since the axe hopper UED does more damage. Also use load shells skill and artillery, more info below. 2. You can stay in charged axe mode basically forever by using counter peak performance. Counter one hit, AED, power up shield, counter the next hit, boom, charged axe mode. When you need to defend, just use the counter again. As for armor skills, what was shown in the video is correct, but incomplete. So here we go: Evade extender: Useful on any weapon because of the extra distance. Especially useful because of the little sidestep after attacks. Fade slash isn't affected by evade extender. Load shells (only lvl 2): You charge your phials quicker and the yellow glow already charges your phials completely. Very useful for UED spam. Guard up: At least one lvl should always be equipped on every weapon that can block. It allows you to block attacks that normally aren't blockable, for example, rakna kadakis flames. Also counts for counter peak performance, meaning that you can now counter literally any attack in the game. Guard: Very good if you block a lot. It lessens stamina use, lessens the knockback you take when blocking and it lessens the chip damage you take when blocking. VERY important if you want to guardpoint a lot. Some attacks do so much knockback that you won't be able to do the follow-up UED, even though the guardpoint was perfect. Part breaker: Especially useful with condensed spinning slash, since the multiple hits help break the parts faster. Very good for part-sniping. Focus and power prolonger are pretty much completely useless, it's not hard to keep your shield charged and the cb doesn't have any super slow, chargable moves that you'll be using a lot. Still a good tutorial, even though you missed some things and the order in which you talked about the stuff is weird. I just felt like expanding upon it and filling in the blanks that you left, because i have a lot of experience with this weapon and i just love it. If there's any questions, I'll gladly answer. Have fun and happy hunting!
Important tip: if you decide to play spinning slash and youre on controller, make sure you enable rumble. The tactile feedback of the saw chunking through the monster is SO damn satisfying
Honestly i don't have a switch or mh rise(yet) but i watched this because i knew you would have an awesome montage at the beginning similar to your mhw guides.
I made a new character to play through Rise with a Charge Blade (Rise is my first real MH game), and I must say, Khezu is actually quite punishing if you aren't really aware of how to play well. (Also, if I wanted to play an axe-only character, which is better? SA or CB? Or is there an axe-looking Hammer?)
@@berserkerciaran ... uhh SA and CB are hella different type of weapon.. but i guess SA is straight up APE MODE... while CB is really meticulous weapon to use... even when u want to go ape mode... u still need to mind other useful stuff for better damage output
@@berserkerciaran They're both morphing weapons between a sword (and shield with CB) and an axe so it really depends on your playstyle. With CB there's a little more management of building up your phials like Arrekz mentioned in sword mode and then dishing out that phial damage in axe mode. With SA you're going to be doing a lot more morphing between them but it kinda boils down to use axe mode for more mobility, reaching higher parts on the monster, and letting your sword recharge. When you want to dish out big damage you switch to sword mode which you can then slash and hack away and also discharge your sword energy buildup into the monster. But keep in my sword mode has a gauge that can run out and you need to switch back to axe mode to let it recharge. So essentially it boils down to how you want to play with your axe weapon. Do you want to use primarily for hacking at specific parts of the monster and in between damage windows, or do you want to swap to it for your big damage windows but have to recharge it in sword mode? Personally if you want a more "axe" feeling weapon I think you'll find SA to meet that feel more, but the choice will ultimately be up to you and I'd suggest you try both.
This is the most simple video explaining a complex weapon. I been experimenting with the charge blade. It’s more to think about while playing. But after gaining experience with it. The charge blade is a fun weapon to use. Smacking a monster around with a fulling charged AED is awesome.
Glad to see more guides to help people pick up the charge blade, its one of my favorite weapons and I dont see too many people using it. If you're having trouble try rewatching this video and going over everything in the training area until you feel somewhat comfortable, after that you should go and fight a predictable monster that you feel comfortable fighting, rathian is a good one.
I've mained Charge Blade ever since its inception and this is definitely the best its ever been. All the Switch Skills are absolutely brilliant and so much fun to use, especially Condensed Spinning Slash and Axe Hopper. Morphing Advance gives you soooo much mobility and utility as well, it's gonna be hard to go without those in future games that don't have Wirebugs. Also if you go into C. Elemental or Spinning Slash right after you charge phials into your shield the animation is quicker. If you do it without you get this additional shield shake animation as your character notices there's nothing to charge which makes the transition more awkward.
This is definitely the weapon that intimidates me most in all of Monster Hunter, but I'm gonna give it a shot! Kind of have to for the Arena anyway. Wish me luck!
Usually I'd learn the weapons on my own. But after burning MH World controls into my brain it I've had trouble relearning the controls and mechanics for Rise so here I am... these videos are perfect by the way, easy to understand and well paced.
You can shortcut into UED / AED from a regular block too. It doesnt have to be a guard point. The only real advantage of a guard point is the reduced knockback.
I don't have a Switch so i can't enjoy MHR yet. But i am here watching your Content for it. You taught me all the Basics for CB in World and now it's my Main Weapon. You and Shermsy are true Senpai. Thank you for all the Work and Time you're putting in your Content.
Internally watched paradise video regarding switch axe, so I thought “oh it’s like sword and shield” so now I main it thanks to you. This video comes out now and I feel like I do so much damage. Appreciate you
Spectacular video. Ive been playing monster hunter since generations and ive always used just the most basic combos. Its also so cool to be able to leap 50 feet in the air and slam down with the charge blade, like in generations.
I remember first playing monster Gunter world I watch your video for like maybe 4 hours learning the charge blade.. was a pain and got cart haha but in the end it was worth it!! Thank you as always for the great videos
This is an amazing video, I can only imagine how hard it might have been compiling all that and explaining it for complete newbies like me. I never dared using this weapon cause I really couldn't get how you're even supposed to use it, but it's been a week since I've started training and watching this maybe twice a day, and yes, it's a very satisfying weapon once you get how to use it. Thank you very much, sir!
Bro I’m a big fan of the channel and I love what u do so don’t take this the wrong way but BRO, I think the only thing I took from this was holding the attack button makes the weapon act like a saw and guard points. I mean you’re going over everything much too fast using attack names that nobody knows and therefore doesn’t really know how to do the moves. Also, my god man lol u talked about so many things that NEED your shield to be charged and I STILL don’t know how to charge it lmao u may have mentioned it but u were just all over the place with everything man lol it’s like u were explaining this for people that haven’t used this weapon is Rise but have used it previously. But again I love the channel and everything u do, just thought u may want some feedback on how this video was put together. Thanks and now I’m gonna go look up a video of how use this weapon. Lol
I picked up the charge blade thinking it was a sword and shield the first time I played monster hunter world. I figured "hey, let's find a simple weapon so that I can focus on learning the game". It was only a few hours later that I got fed up enough to look up a tutorial for the weapon. Turns out I was using the most complicated weapon in the game instead of the simplest... :P I still use the chargeblade to this day :)
For anyone who doesn't realize it yet. Charge Blade is the worst it's ever been since the original MH4. It received half the available guard point frames, and replaced it with endlag so you cannot guard after a GP. The SAED/CSS is exacerbated for damage, and if you do not do them, you do 0 damage. The kicker as well is that they then proceeded to nerf the available time you can have red shield, then lowered it's guard values so you can no longer GP anything into any moves you would want to use for intelligent gameplay.
Been watching your MonHun guides since World, and they are the best by far. Lots of attention to detail, absolutely great structuring of the script so it all makes sense to a beginner, impeccable presentation. The only comparable ones I've seen are from speedrunners of specific weapons, but I don't count that as it's usually not beginner friendly at all and it makes more sense to start with your videos and then look at the speedrunners after getting comfortable with the flow of the weapon.
If you're in condensed axe mode and want to rapid redeploy, rolling at the end of a wire bug rush will cancel the animation delay, prevent swapping to sword mode, and allow you to keep buzz sawing from the new location.
Great video! One quick CB tip. If you have phial charge and you load phials into condensed spinning slash, you can let go of X as soon as the axe/shield starts spinning to cancel the startup right into the attack.
DO IT! Become one of us who master all weapons! Then you'll be set for every arena mission and you can use the best weapon for every monster. And being able to switch between every given weapon keeps the game fresh.
@@TheStudio_70 Well hey, practice makes perfect. And in rise we've got arrow types that cater to different playstyles, so maybe one would serve you better than another? I know my friend and I play the bow very differently from eachother.
@@elementual I am proud to be one of the jacks of all weapons! No monster can beat me forever if I just keep coming back with every weapon until one works!
super fast sword mode combo is the x>x+a repeat. it's not great for charging phials but it's just super fast I use it pretty frequently when using element phial or small opportunities.
"Let's talk about the Charge Blade. Monster Hunter's most technical weapon. This thing should come with a user manual...oh wait, that's what this video is for." Something about this made me laugh. Earned a like and a sub from me.
Wow, thank you Arekkz. This was very helpful I have never tried CB but now after watching this video and playing with it in training I'm falling in love with it. Thank you!
Uhh I've been waiting for this for too long! All these juicy new switch Skills have been eluding me so far, so thanks for the brilliant explanations on them. I'm off to training now!
Returning to this amazing weapon workshop with Sunbreak releasing. I've always been wanting to learn the Chargeblade, but this definitely made it a smoother experience becoming a Chargeblade bro.
Wanna learn this weapon now because it's the only one I never really played. And after looking more into it it seems easier than people make it to be. I love it. Video came for the perfect time for me. I hope i will have many fun hours with this weapon

@@kevofett I legit tried to do a spirit thrust yesterday I wasn’t kidding when I said CB used most of my memory storage.
It’s really not that complicated
To be quite honest, as someone who plays Charge Blade for quite some time, it’s basically a flow-chart weapon.
Is your shield charged? If not, charge it.
Is your sword charged? Do you think you have the time to charge it? If so, charge it.
Is now a good time for SAED? If not, then waste some time by slapping the monster around in axe form, expending phials so you can keep DPS and open the monster up for SAED. Impact phials makes the process easier, but if you have an elemental weapon, then you’ll miss out on a lot of damage if you don’t have element phials.

CB is one of those "hard to explain and use weapons; but once you know what you're doing its actually really simple" kinda weapons.
Its counter also helps to make it easier to upkeep damage and performance.

I’ve always felt like it was the exact opposite of the greatsword. Its difficult to learn, but one of the easiest weapons to be good with.
@@stardokplay4923 I've had the opposite experience. Been playing with charge blade since base world, understood completely how it works but all guard points I've performed are utter luck. It's disheartening to really like a weapon but such so bad at it.
I was LITERALLY talking about your CB tutorial for World in my MH Discord server, it still holds up!
This is the first weapon tutorial that going to reach highest views before other weapons tutorials, mainly because the 100 users of this weapon keep returning to watch this video.
This entire video “we’ll talk about that in a minute, I swear.” Great tutorial as always, been a CB main for 3 games and still found it very helpful.
I've never played a monster hunter game before, but plan on picking it up in a few days. Any Charge Blade advice?

Ahhhh yes, my charge blade bros are all here.
Maybe I overlooked you specifically mentioning it in this 40-minute guide, but for viewers' sake, 36:36 shows a good example of this: since applying the phial boost to your shield is tied to the start of Amped Element Discharge, _any_ moves that let you shortcut to AED like guardpoints or the silkbind counter are also great for quickly boosting the shield, and you don't need to do the Triple X+A combo to get that going. If the first thing you do upon starting a fight is Peak Performance the roar, you can have a powered shield within 4 seconds.
That's genius.
I put “arekkz charge blade” into the search bar expecting to tide myself over with the World tutorial and was instead given this like a gift from the heavens, posted not even a day ago

Rathalos: “what are you talking about? The floor IS LITERALLY LAVA”
Also: if you delay your x input after the element discharge II, you will do an overhead slam instead of the rising slash. The slam is a little slower but does more damage than the rising slash.
Also feels chunkier
It also doesn't launch your teammates
@@rustygear447 if it doesnt disrupt my squad I dont want it.
@@fusionxtras You're a villain😂
17:23 I actually found that if you go into the controls setting in the options and change the directional control settings to type 2, then you can cancel the ued into an aed by holding down on the joystick regardless of where you're facing.
I prefer type 2 for all weapons. In reality, it's best for slower weapons and type 1 tends to be more intuitive for faster weapons, like DB's. But I prefer the consistency, because I've played it so long I just always know I can rely on rolling where I want to. Type 2 is basically tank controls in old RE games. Once you get used to it, it works for any weapon more consistently, in my experience.
your shield is charged for 30 seconds for every file consumed while charging
And with power prolonger?
@@xviinaichi3793 im cool with 2 Load shell... so quick to charge
and CPP for straight up full charged phial
Phial*
Been using this weapon since it debuted in MH4. when I saw it in the trailer, I knew I'd fall in love with it. I have such a hard time even thinking about using another weapon 😩 went from sword and shield to charge blade and never looked back. To all of my few, but dedicated CB lovers on this page, I salute y'all.
Hope this video produces new fans 😁
I got a little discouraged at first playing it because I keep getting carted. Once I went into the training area and tried things out. Then charge blade got fun…Elemental charge blades deal massive damage... “THAT’S ALOT OF DAMAGE!” 😅
Im an OG charge blade user as well, we are few and far between but damn do we get da big numbers
This is why I love these videos. I've been playing CB in rise for 140 hours and I had no idea that my spinning axe was building my phials and I also had no idea you could hold the button to make it spin on impact. Thank you arrekz! Still schooling my ass even when I think I've got it down lol
I'm surprised power prolonger wasn't mentioned, I love having that extended shield charge uptime
I can't use the weapon without it anymore, being able to store phials twice then just wail on a monster for what feels like forever is amazing.
it was very important with focus skill during MH:WORLD... but now slap 2 load shell skill and youre good to go.. i mean you can full charge phial on yellow.. fuck hell yes.. phial goes brrrrr
owh and CPP to full charge phial is kinda OP too lol
The true crime is not mentioning Guard Up.
@@Trakesh I don't know about Rise specifically (waiting for PC) but it was pretty niche in world. Most, if not all, of the attacks that required Guard Up to block were easy enough to avoid anyway and there was little benefit to blocking them.
Blocking a Teostra nova was cool but there wasn't much opportunity to capitalise after doing it. Much less so with the game design abomination that was Lunastra's nova.
It's so easy to charge the shield especially with load shells lvl 2 so you're better off putting in a different skill instead.
There is one playstyle that i've been using on charge blade that i've gotten a lot of mileage out of by using the charged element slash. The CES actually comes out significantly faster when you use it to convert energy into phials, so I end up belting them out faster and more reliably than UEDs. With this, the sword mode attacks also deal phial damage, providing an excellent mix of power and mobility. The mindset behind the playstyle is essentially to constabtly be charging into CES, and using UEDs only when the monster is downed or stunned.
This weapon has been my main since 4U its implementation in rise is so fun and you always learn something new, silkbind morph advance (ZL+X) with hyper armour is Amazing! 🤩
Yep, always have a bug in reserve especially for Savage-axe play to close the distance to a monster, no knockdown and keep your axe out.
Wait that has hyper armor?
@@TheMasterofBlu that it does! Such a life saver to keep up aggression during savage axe 🪓 and advancing!
Best weapon in the game imo. Once you learn it nothing else feels the same.
Excellent video. As someone with over 400 hours on CB on MHW, I found this video incredibly helpful to learn the differences and new CB moves on Rise. Thanks for being the best MH content creator in history Arrekz!
Helpful tip: You can convert your axe hopper to a normal UED by delaying your button input (X +A) when closer to the ground. This is a very good tip when you know your axe hopper will miss or when the monster moves.
Please upvote for visibility.
Actually, it doesn’t even convert to a normal UED, it still is an Aerial Ultra Elemental Discharge even if performed right as you touch the ground. Meaning it loses nothing from it’s damage and you gain the free mobility
What's fun is knowing I know how to play the weapon already but still watching to see if there's anything new you could learn 😁😁lovin the vids Arekkz🥰
The beginning of my charge blade journey in rise is a switch throwing experience. It was such a rough experience. Getting smacked all over the place by low and high rank arzuros lol. Keep at it guys, this weapon needs time to click.
@@RastaWayne-di4sj i was main GS back in world.. and even gave up trying CB and pick up bow and LBG... but i gave it another try... man i just use CB all the way through iceborn and just straight up maining in Rise
The best monster to train with Charge Blade (more specifically the Guard Points) is Volvidon, no question about it! Not only is he weak enough to not make the experience rage inducing, but Guard Pointing his rolls has a chance to stagger him (from the little phial explosion the Charged Shield causes)
I once used this strategy to spam SAEDs on the poor rollie boi!
Oh, I didn't realize it's officially called "Ultra Element Discharge" now. I wonder if that's a nod to people calling it "Ultra Burst" for so long.
Quick note on the Axe Hopper. you can also press R2- i mean ZR while midair to quickly switch back to sword and shield mode. incase the target decided to run 5 miles away.
Even as a charge blade main, i still love watching these types of tutorials from you and gaijin. Always looks forward to learning new things. Gonna try switching up the switch skills to your recommendation and see how it goes 🙈
Ah yes. Finally.
The weapon that doesn't allow you to have secondaries.
You don't need a secondary.
@@JEL625 not when you have all in one.
Okay, but can use items without sheathing your weapons? I didn't think so. Stay mad CB plebs.

I just thought "I'm getting bored with LS, SA, HH, H, and I don't want basic stuff. Let's just learn Charge Blade!". Then, I realised this is a lot to handle. But I'll try learning by doing
Something I didn't see mentioned is that if you delay your AED or UED when using the wirebug leap your character can advance a few steps before unleashing the attack. That way if the monster steps away from you, you have a gap closer built into the UED.
This is huge!! Thanks for the tip, hope others see this
@@wobblecrash glad I could help, it's gotten me a few solid hits I wouldn't have had.
Loving these videos. This was the next weapon I was getting into. That Teostra Charge Blade looks spicy.
Some extra CB tips I know from MHW:
• you can go into UED directly after the ‘store phial’ [ZR+A] if you press X+A (x2). It’s the fastest way to go from empty red phials to UED when your shield is charged.
• the yellow/red charge stacks over the stored phials. So you can have full phials, charge to red, use UED, and store full phials immediately after to use another UED.
• I believe in MHW the charged shield was assumed to be equivalent to 2 Guard skill levels. So players would often run 1 Guard level on their builds to have Guard lvl 3 when their shield was charged. Or for stronger monsters, they would have 3 Guard levels on their builds to have Guard lvl 5 when their shield was charged.
• lastly, unga bunga bruthur!
Your last bullet point is true. I believe guard point also gave a guard bonus to that block. I think +1 but I'm not sure.
Watching this again as a world player playing Rise for the first time takes me back when I first played world iceborne.
I’m so glad you’re still here posting. Thank you.
I love the Charge Blade. I did Duel Blades, Insect Glaive, and Switch Axe up until Generations. Then I fell in love with it and have been using it ever since. Arrekz, without you and Gaijin I never would have come to understand the weapon when I was starting out in Generations, so thanks so much for that
This is why I always come to you to learn a weapon. Almost 40 mins long but I have learn so much and feel I will be a better hunter due to it! Keep up the amazing work!!!!
Love how you say like so to charge the shield yet cover up the combo to zoom in on the thing everyone can see. Brilliant, Guy.
Literally is this guy stupid?
Wtf are you pressing to transfer to shield you literally covered the combo up and said “like so”
I'm a Fiver CB bro who started because of your charge blade tutorial video, and now I'm watching its successor. You guys are awesome...thanks for the hard work!
I decided with Rise to try out a weapon I hadn't used before. I chose Charge Blade, It took so long to learn, but now I feel like I won't ever forget it. It's so fun to use!
I remember when it was still my first time to the MH Series (MH World) and I immediately chose this weapon, lmao I had no idea what I was doing til I watched Arekz' tutorial video for MH World. In all seriousness this weapon is really satisfying to use especially when you've mastered it.
Just started playing this on game pass and just wanna say thanks. Your channel helped me out so much for MHW and now MHR. Team charge blade!✌🏿
Man these switch skills are crazy.
Having the ability to basically play charge blade as just an axe is awesome
Still remember playing mh4u on my 3ds and watching your video on this weapon to try it out, and now it's been my main in every monster hunter game i play
This isn't supposed to be hate or anything like that, it's just that I've been maining cb since 4u so i noticed that you left out a decent amount of stuff(and i don't blame you, it's called the most complicated weapon for a good reason). So, since you didn't mention everything, I'm just gonna expand upon your tutorial and write down everything you missed.
1. Blocking attacks with your shield also charges your phials. I don't know if the amount charged depends on the strength of the blocked attack because i never bothered to test it, but simply blocking attacks charges phials, so keep that in mind.
2. When your shield is charged, your axe does more damage. So you should always have a charged shield, regardless of your playstyle.
3. Charging your axe also gives it mind's eye (only while actually spinning). So as long as you hold the button in axe mode, it won't bounce.
4. The aerial Ultra Element Discharge (UED) from axe hopper does more damage than a normal one one the ground.
5. If you have the condensed element slash active (sword is charged), and your phials are overloaded, your attacks won't bounce, but they'll still deal less damage, so you should never overcharge your phials.
6. Phials do fixed damage. Just like gunlance shells, it doesn't matter where you hit the monster, they'll always do the same damage.
7. Breaking parts is easier when you're axe charged, because it's more hits at once.
8. You can cancel the endlag of most moves with another move. For example: in sword mode, just press x+a or hold a to charge and keep attacking infinitely. Basically, you can sorta flow from one attack into the next.
9. Morphing advance does NOT have i-frames. It has a bit of superarmor, which means that you can power through some attacks without taking knockback, but you'll still take damage.
Now here's some tips:
1. If you want your playstyle to revolve heavily around UED spam, consider going with axe hopper and the sword charge instead of the axe charge. This will allow you to get your phials easier and deal the most damage possible with the UED, since the axe hopper UED does more damage. Also use load shells skill and artillery, more info below.
2. You can stay in charged axe mode basically forever by using counter peak performance. Counter one hit, AED, power up shield, counter the next hit, boom, charged axe mode. When you need to defend, just use the counter again.
As for armor skills, what was shown in the video is correct, but incomplete. So here we go:
Evade extender:
Useful on any weapon because of the extra distance. Especially useful because of the little sidestep after attacks. Fade slash isn't affected by evade extender.
Load shells (only lvl 2):
You charge your phials quicker and the yellow glow already charges your phials completely. Very useful for UED spam.
Guard up:
At least one lvl should always be equipped on every weapon that can block. It allows you to block attacks that normally aren't blockable, for example, rakna kadakis flames. Also counts for counter peak performance, meaning that you can now counter literally any attack in the game.
Guard:
Very good if you block a lot. It lessens stamina use, lessens the knockback you take when blocking and it lessens the chip damage you take when blocking. VERY important if you want to guardpoint a lot. Some attacks do so much knockback that you won't be able to do the follow-up UED, even though the guardpoint was perfect.
Part breaker:
Especially useful with condensed spinning slash, since the multiple hits help break the parts faster. Very good for part-sniping.
Focus and power prolonger are pretty much completely useless, it's not hard to keep your shield charged and the cb doesn't have any super slow, chargable moves that you'll be using a lot.
Still a good tutorial, even though you missed some things and the order in which you talked about the stuff is weird. I just felt like expanding upon it and filling in the blanks that you left, because i have a lot of experience with this weapon and i just love it. If there's any questions, I'll gladly answer. Have fun and happy hunting!
Important tip: if you decide to play spinning slash and youre on controller, make sure you enable rumble. The tactile feedback of the saw chunking through the monster is SO damn satisfying
Honestly i don't have a switch or mh rise(yet) but i watched this because i knew you would have an awesome montage at the beginning similar to your mhw guides.
Been waiting for this since Rise came out!
You and me both bruv
A certain speedrunner might need this video
*cough* zeus *cough*
I made a new character to play through Rise with a Charge Blade (Rise is my first real MH game), and I must say, Khezu is actually quite punishing if you aren't really aware of how to play well.
(Also, if I wanted to play an axe-only character, which is better? SA or CB? Or is there an axe-looking Hammer?)
@@berserkerciaran ... uhh SA and CB are hella different type of weapon.. but i guess SA is straight up APE MODE... while CB is really meticulous weapon to use... even when u want to go ape mode... u still need to mind other useful stuff for better damage output
@@berserkerciaran They're both morphing weapons between a sword (and shield with CB) and an axe so it really depends on your playstyle.
With CB there's a little more management of building up your phials like Arrekz mentioned in sword mode and then dishing out that phial damage in axe mode.
With SA you're going to be doing a lot more morphing between them but it kinda boils down to use axe mode for more mobility, reaching higher parts on the monster, and letting your sword recharge. When you want to dish out big damage you switch to sword mode which you can then slash and hack away and also discharge your sword energy buildup into the monster. But keep in my sword mode has a gauge that can run out and you need to switch back to axe mode to let it recharge.
So essentially it boils down to how you want to play with your axe weapon. Do you want to use primarily for hacking at specific parts of the monster and in between damage windows, or do you want to swap to it for your big damage windows but have to recharge it in sword mode?
Personally if you want a more "axe" feeling weapon I think you'll find SA to meet that feel more, but the choice will ultimately be up to you and I'd suggest you try both.
@@berserkerciaran If you want to use an axe, use Bazelgeuse's dual blades lol
He tells you how to transfer the charge to your shield but then proceeds to block the screen with the zoom so you don't see the combo
This is the most simple video explaining a complex weapon. I been experimenting with the charge blade. It’s more to think about while playing. But after gaining experience with it. The charge blade is a fun weapon to use. Smacking a monster around with a fulling charged AED is awesome.
Glad to see more guides to help people pick up the charge blade, its one of my favorite weapons and I dont see too many people using it. If you're having trouble try rewatching this video and going over everything in the training area until you feel somewhat comfortable, after that you should go and fight a predictable monster that you feel comfortable fighting, rathian is a good one.
It's always good to have a refresher course on my main weapon.
I use so many different weapons depending on mood and monster. I’m excited to see all of these videos once they’re done.
The one workshop I've been wanting for a new CB main
Just here trying to guess what the one private one was/is. The world may never know
I've mained Charge Blade ever since its inception and this is definitely the best its ever been. All the Switch Skills are absolutely brilliant and so much fun to use, especially Condensed Spinning Slash and Axe Hopper. Morphing Advance gives you soooo much mobility and utility as well, it's gonna be hard to go without those in future games that don't have Wirebugs.
Also if you go into C. Elemental or Spinning Slash right after you charge phials into your shield the animation is quicker. If you do it without you get this additional shield shake animation as your character notices there's nothing to charge which makes the transition more awkward.
Everytime I think I've mastered a weapon, I come to these workshops and there's MORE to learn 😨
Keep up the great videos!
This is definitely the weapon that intimidates me most in all of Monster Hunter, but I'm gonna give it a shot! Kind of have to for the Arena anyway. Wish me luck!
Usually I'd learn the weapons on my own. But after burning MH World controls into my brain it I've had trouble relearning the controls and mechanics for Rise so here I am... these videos are perfect by the way, easy to understand and well paced.
You can shortcut into UED / AED from a regular block too. It doesnt have to be a guard point. The only real advantage of a guard point is the reduced knockback.
I don't have a Switch so i can't enjoy MHR yet.
But i am here watching your Content for it. You taught me all the Basics for CB in World and now it's my Main Weapon.
You and Shermsy are true Senpai. Thank you for all the Work and Time you're putting in your Content.
I've been checking this channel multiple times a day in anticipation for this video. Thank you!
Time to get those popcorn and sit back. This is gonna be a good one.
Power Prolonger is a must for me, but not listed here. Keeps that shield glowing longer, which mean more UEDs.
I've used CB for 100hrs but never thought of using backward slash to reposition. thanks for the guide!
Internally watched paradise video regarding switch axe, so I thought “oh it’s like sword and shield” so now I main it thanks to you. This video comes out now and I feel like I do so much damage. Appreciate you
Spectacular video. Ive been playing monster hunter since generations and ive always used just the most basic combos. Its also so cool to be able to leap 50 feet in the air and slam down with the charge blade, like in generations.
Additional tip in charging your sword: Do it if your gauge is on yellow/red to avoid the jiggle animation.
And thanks for the video.
Ditto for the pizza cutter
I remember first playing monster Gunter world I watch your video for like maybe 4 hours learning the charge blade.. was a pain and got cart haha but in the end it was worth it!! Thank you as always for the great videos
now this is what i call a tutorial. been finding ways to get saed, charged shield sword but none. thanks my guy.
This is an amazing video, I can only imagine how hard it might have been compiling all that and explaining it for complete newbies like me. I never dared using this weapon cause I really couldn't get how you're even supposed to use it, but it's been a week since I've started training and watching this maybe twice a day, and yes, it's a very satisfying weapon once you get how to use it. Thank you very much, sir!
Bro I’m a big fan of the channel and I love what u do so don’t take this the wrong way but BRO, I think the only thing I took from this was holding the attack button makes the weapon act like a saw and guard points. I mean you’re going over everything much too fast using attack names that nobody knows and therefore doesn’t really know how to do the moves. Also, my god man lol u talked about so many things that NEED your shield to be charged and I STILL don’t know how to charge it lmao u may have mentioned it but u were just all over the place with everything man lol it’s like u were explaining this for people that haven’t used this weapon is Rise but have used it previously. But again I love the channel and everything u do, just thought u may want some feedback on how this video was put together. Thanks and now I’m gonna go look up a video of how use this weapon. Lol
I picked up the charge blade thinking it was a sword and shield the first time I played monster hunter world. I figured "hey, let's find a simple weapon so that I can focus on learning the game". It was only a few hours later that I got fed up enough to look up a tutorial for the weapon. Turns out I was using the most complicated weapon in the game instead of the simplest... :P
I still use the chargeblade to this day :)
For anyone who doesn't realize it yet. Charge Blade is the worst it's ever been since the original MH4. It received half the available guard point frames, and replaced it with endlag so you cannot guard after a GP. The SAED/CSS is exacerbated for damage, and if you do not do them, you do 0 damage. The kicker as well is that they then proceeded to nerf the available time you can have red shield, then lowered it's guard values so you can no longer GP anything into any moves you would want to use for intelligent gameplay.
Been watching your MonHun guides since World, and they are the best by far. Lots of attention to detail, absolutely great structuring of the script so it all makes sense to a beginner, impeccable presentation. The only comparable ones I've seen are from speedrunners of specific weapons, but I don't count that as it's usually not beginner friendly at all and it makes more sense to start with your videos and then look at the speedrunners after getting comfortable with the flow of the weapon.
If you're in condensed axe mode and want to rapid redeploy, rolling at the end of a wire bug rush will cancel the animation delay, prevent swapping to sword mode, and allow you to keep buzz sawing from the new location.
Exactly! Awesome and fast huge gap closer. That and evade extender 3!
This is my favorite weapon, really great tutorial. Can't wait for the switch axe and lances (never really got into those yet)
This weapon is so fun. I had no idea you could charge the sword or do the buzzsaw move before this video. Thanks for the tips!
The fact I didn't know you could make this thing into a chainsaw until now is amazing.
They added so many new mechanics between World and Rise, I think I prefer this version over World’s
Great video! One quick CB tip. If you have phial charge and you load phials into condensed spinning slash, you can let go of X as soon as the axe/shield starts spinning to cancel the startup right into the attack.
Been doing 100hr in this game doing CB as main and I learned tons today from this video I wish I learned 2 weeks ago
