my issue with GS is that it feels like you have to KNOW the mob's moves to the core or else you cant pull anything relatively close to what we're seeing here
yeah TCS playstyle definitely requires you to know the monster. I have been using Rage Slash though and even though it was nerfed and numbers wise it's weaker, the 360 degrees aiming and extra power armor makes it way more of a flexible option. At least I can hit the damn monsters lol
Kinda silly question (new to GS), but I have trouble knowing where I'm facing during charge windups since you twist to face in a direction different than where the hit comes out. Do you have a way to keeping yourself aligned, or is it just practice/instinct? You seem to be incredibly precise at targeting the charged hits on specific body parts. The fact that you crushed his tail so reliably was crazy to me.
Keep the camera behind you and push the stick towards what you want to hit. After a while it becomes natural. Keep in mind you can only turn ~45 degrees in either direction from where you started.
How does one use tackle during the initial charged slash phase? I can only do it during the SCS and TCS/RS phase. I am a total GS Noob, I mean this is the first time I picked up the GS in any monster game that I played.
@@XanMH1 Yeah, Iwatched it several times, it's a great video and it was extremely helpful but it did not mention the fact that you can only tackle during the 1st charged slash phase if you press the O/B button right at animation start-up. This is not the case with the SCS and TCS/RS.
Why is every single big hit a break or stager? I play gs and when i hit a monster for 1500 dmg in the face it woint even flinch. But you hit it in the face for 1000 and get a break and knockdown... wtf?
Pre-Sunbreak, Talisman melding were more merciful. You were able to get good talismans in Rarity 7. My best talisman is Attack 3+Slugger 2 + a LVL2 slot. But once a time I saw a dude with Attack 3+LVL3 slot+LVL2 Slot, he seemed to be a newbie since his armor was a mess and didn't even put any jewels. (This happened on Switch) But after sunbreak update, rates of getting this kind of talismans were lowered as hell and now is harder to get them even from rarity 10...
Damn that 3 mudballs in a row was hype. Nice run once again xan!
You finally manage to understand the monster!! GG Xan!
Thanks Pierrot! This monster is just a lottery 😂
I like the strat where u keep letting him get the ball up and smacking it right away for topples! even i dont play gsword u make me wanna main it!
The grind these past days pays off. That was satisfying to watch. Well done Xan!
Thank you!
Nice run xanbro :prayge: The dedication to grinding Almudron is insane.
Thank you brother priest
1. Hey! It's my dudes voice! I don't see that often at all!
2. Absolute legend. I am TERRIBLE at this fight with the GS.
I genuinely hate this matchup with this weapon.
You've made me reconsider.
nice work xan
Last time i was on your stream you had a 3:30 ??!!? Very enjoyable run, ans impressive
Thanks for stopping by!
Nice, run and congratulation on sub 3
Dang, u think u gonna try to win the lottery now? Good job btw amazing run been lurking ur streams
if only you didn't miss at the end, great run xan
Let's gooooo Xan
Damn, I actually learned so much from this video..It never occurred to me to do 2 tackles to get to TCS
Watching the tail bubble pop is so satisfying.
Pog congrats xan 😁
clean! nice run xan senpai :)
Thank you Arashi!
a true blademaster
WR Lessssssfuckinnngggooo Xan!!
Not WR but I don't want to fight this shit anymore 🤣
Nice run Xan! Do you actually enjoy the almudron fight? I personally can't stand it.
I enjoyed the learning process but the fight is not very enjoyable. He is very RNG for GS, you literally have to gamble for some TCS openings.
very nice. this is such a weird ass monster.
Finally, a strategy i can adapt for my most hated monster in Rise. How much Earplugs do we need here? 2?
4
@@XanMH1 thanks!
it's easy, just need an earplugs 3 / attack boost 2 / 3-1-1 talisman -- shouldn't take too long to get 🙂
we gotta DUNK
GG!!!

@@3run3r even if its nerfed when u dont hit the monster u make no dmg so Rage slash deals more dmg because u hit with it xD

@@XanMH1 that Tackle also have function to make our TCS will hit? i mean to measure the range?
Awesome. I subscribed your channel. I am having difficult time killing Apex mitsuzune. I would love to watch you kill it.
Do you always run earplugs 4 on gs? Great run
I only use earplugs for specific speedruns. Don't recommend using it outside of that.

You can tackle right after rolling with the attack button. I have a beginner's GS guide on my channel that will answer most of your questions.

What armour u using? Gems and talisman too
Do you have earplugs 3? Is that how youre tanking the roars?
You need level 4 for this guy
with level 3 Flinch Free our TCS will not interrupted?
Its to prevent some of the mud attacks from knocking me down.
@@XanMH1 Thanks for the explanation, just fall in love to GS recently :)
Is this highrank?
