** (EDIT/UPDATE) Regarding what I've shown and said regarding the Charge Blade' s Axe for Hitzone Values (HZV), it is also Sever Damager (Not Blunt Damage), however for Impact CB when savage axe mode activated, it will do Phial damage which will do KO damage. Phial damage is not Blunt damage since it doesn't get affected by HZV, but share the same similarities that they do KO damage.
** I am no longer part of The Drachen Rangers **

My Multi-hop/guard hopping key setup:
It helps if you have a mouse with at least a side button, two side buttons help a lot.
top side button = guard/special/slinger fire
bottom side button = LC+RC
Ctrl = slinger aim
If you don't have a side button, you can setup one of your keys to press middle mouse button.
This setup is comfortable for me to do multi-hop/guard hopping.
multi-hop for PC (my setup) = hold top side button (guard), then hit A or D -> Ctrl + Space bar quickly. You'll have to figure out the timing for the keys, but it gets easier to learn but hard to apply in battle.
One you do the guard hop, you can also use A/D + RC to do a sliding slash which helps with stamina recovery + mobility.
If you have any questions about your keyboard and mouse setup let me know. My default keys are different from the default with those without side buttons on their mouse.
Kevin Lu Oh wow you’re a superstar!!! I’m sure the plenty of PC players will highly appreciate your work here and thanks for your awesome support!!

@@SH3RMSY Sure, thanks for the invite!
amazing
Jew Lee I know, right! 🥰
For me shift for slinger aim and ctrl/alt for tap run/hold run is better since it is much easier and less stressed for your ring finger when you multi hop. shift+a to hop left is much more comfy than ctrl+a.
wow a 3 year old video and it is literally EXACTLY what I needed, I play switch axe and picked up charge blade, I watched Arekkz chargeblade tutorial (great new player resource) but now that i've picked up some basics I really wanted to learn how to optimize my gameplay, thank you for making this video it's really amazing and well put together!
Thanks a lot for the support and expect to enjoy the game in a different light!! 👊
Me right now!
When the best CB guide is 47 minutes long. Absolutely stunning. This video was extremely helpful
Cheers buddy, glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the support!
This guide is much more than every CB main could have hoped for. I have watched many CB guides over the years. This is the best, by far. Incredible work.
Cheers my dude, couldn't have hoped for better feedback. Really appreciate you taking the time and hope you enjoy taking your skills to the next level!! 😍
I'm a civilized man now, my Unga Bunga past is now well behind.
baylego Welcome to 2020 😜
uh.... i'm still Unga Bunga, but one thing I did learn when playing SA thxs to this vid is the forward slam with the axe instead of the upper cut for multiplayer. I forgot about that move and always knocked ppl into the air XD (I do have two builds for two different charge blades). My SA CB is not quite optimized yet tho
@@mike23975 Yeah it's quite critical and so many people fall in this trap of using the uppercut because they watch a lot of solo CB speedrunners lol!
@@SH3RMSY You're absolutely amazing btw! As a charge blade main myself, I now have someone to look up to. Thanks a lot for this video!
Ungabunga is the reason i play cb :)
Not only is your content and insight/expertise on-point, but I wanted to specifically commend your organizational details. The introductory roadmap and outline at the beginning of the video, as well as the extensive timestamp lists in the description, are immensely valuable. Where many content creators play "hide the ball" with the juicy information contained in their videos to maximize watch (read: advertising) time, you're relying on the fact that the content is GOOD to keep eyeballs on the video. Keep up the great work!
Brad Eberly You’re feedback is incredible and so right, lol!! I HATE it when I watch a video for a specific point and forced to watch the vid or keep skipping to specific sections until I find it... so I defo don’t want to be a hypocrite and want ppl to have the best and easiest viewing experience, since this is designed for ppl to keep coming back to get what they need. Definitely would love it for you to join our discord community: discord.gg/XUBKkAB . Thx for the awesome support!!
Insane guide. Can't believe 45min can go by that fast.
Right!? 🤣🤣🤣 Come join our discord buddy: discord.gg/pxvRdFE
Agree 100%. Straight to the point, no BS, no stuttering, clear, concise, very well organized, timestamped, etcetera.
almost 500 hrs with charge blade and still learning something new from you. definitely the most detailed cb guide I've found on you tube. Thank you!!
You’re most welcome and thx for the support 🙏
MHW is my first MH game, I instantly fell in love with this Rubik's Cube of a weapon. I've been trying to find anything to help me get better and this was far and away the single best resource of information I have found. This is seriously incredible, it's easily accessible and the information within is extremely thorough and coupled with visual aids. Idk if you're ever gonna see this but this video has really showed me the true potential of the weapon and how to get there.
I’m glad to hear the content is helping you out and allowing you to take your game to the next lvl! Cheers for taking the time to share your support and check out my Guard Pointing guide which should be helpful too! 💪🙏
This has made me want to get back into MHW even more. As much as I love Rise and have been enjoying it, I've been missing the bigger indepth and large biomes of World.
Im having my first fresh replay after 1 year of finishing iceborne. It feels so much better than rise. I had fun only by walking around and gathering stuffs 🫠
Me, coming into this video: Charge Blade looks cool, I wanna learn it!
Me, watching the first combo: Haha, nope.
It looks complicated but when you start doing the initial combos without even thinking, you work on the next steps, it’s really fun and rewarding developing your own progress.
The first time you do it is the moment where it you are like"hey this ain't too bad actually"
@@cloaker609
Took me almost 100 hours with it to learn I could charge my shield in 4U
I love this box of surprises
@@arzr_er I did alot of base world without charging the shield
Just bought Iceborne and I was wanting to pick up CB and my friend who mains CB sent me this guide. I just wanted to say thanks so much for this guide. The way you explained everything really helped me gain a near complete understanding of this weapon I've never used until today. I appreciate how in-depth this guide was and it told me so many things that other tutorials I looked at never even mentioned, let alone explained. The detail of this guide was amazing, and the way you explained more obscure parts of the charge blade rivaled the way other guides spoke about the more important parts of CB.
I just wanted to show appreciation for this guide that really made this weapon a hundred times more accessible to someone who's never even upgraded the weapon until today.
Thank you greatly for both your awesome feedback and support. It means a lot to me to hear the experience of different type of players in the game and hearing a beginners perspective who is learning and searching through various guides to give feedback as you have, is just awesome! Once again many thanks and hope you enjoy the learning process as most of us CB mains truly love.
3:35
It's crazy to think that every cb player knows that long ass combo (or a similar, and equally long) by heart, I never realized how many steps it took.
To anyone getting into cb, don't be scared the more you know about cb the more sense every button of the combo makes
baylego Most of us including myself just click the buttons without realising what we’re clicking lol, just 2nd nature 😂 Great advice btw!!
Yea, hearing the combo is more confusing than doing it
Yeah after 2000hrs with near 3000 CB uses, I ran into confusion when trying to explain the combo for my newbie friend, I can't remember those button combinations when not touching my controller xD
End 🤣🍻
I definitely F that one up sometimes, I have a tendency to do (Hold B, Y+B, Hold B, RT B) > (RT, Hold B, Y, RT B) which has a higher chance of over heating your sword. I gotta remember to do this one as its faster and better (Y, Hold B, Y, RT B) > (RT , Hold B, Y, RT B) ^.^'
Not only is this a great overall guide that stands out from the same generic videos others have put out, it speaks about the thought process that brought you here in the first place, so we can all learn to adapt as circumstances require. Superb! Many thanks for all the time you put in making this.
You’re feedback is amazing and glad you appreciate my efforts!!
Hey man! Initially I thought I would be skipping through this guide since it was 45 min, but the way you organized this whole thing made it perfectly enjoyable and informative, so much so to the point where I did not even notice the passing of time. Well done friend, you deserve all the likes and subscriptions!
It’s no wonder you hold world records, when you do something, you do it right, including making videos. Great work.
Thanks for this guide. Watched your Fatalis run a few weeks back and decided to have another go at learning CBlade.
You're guide is one of the most comprehensive guide I've found so far and has got my basic muscle memory of charging; to a point where I'm more comfortable with the weapon.
Keep up the good work, man. The community needs your insane dropping of CB knowledge bombs.
It means so much coming from you, especially from a “quality” renowned MHW Guides content creator! Appreciate your huge support especially promoting me on your own UA-cam and hope to see more awesome content from you!! 🥰👊
This is one of the most in-depth CB guide I've ever found. Thank you so much for having spent lots of time on this video. Really appreciate your effort and passion for the weapon! I certainly have learned a thing or two off this video!
That’s awesome to hear and thanks a lot for recognising my efforts 🙏
I was instantly attracted to charge blade after starting today and your guides make learning it much easier thank you!
Just here to say you did a smashing job on this guide. As someone only getting to grips with the CB I thought every part of this was super helpful, especially in visualising how to improve moving forward. Great effort my dude 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 and a big thank you
Much love for the awesome support and I promise you’ll love the journey to a great CB main!!! Be very patient with the weapon and understand the fundamentals and advance tips throughout my guides ;-)
Halfway through the guide atm. Amazing stuff. Been planning to pick up this weapon since my first hunts but it always scared me away with its complexity. Now I'm in the training mode with this guide by my side practicing all these things and geez, it feels great!
Thanks!
That’s fantastic news and really glad to hear your enjoying learning the CB. Yeah this guide is designed for you to keep referring back too and practicing alongside so I’m delighted to see it work for you!

You made me go from absolute MH beginner to very ok player (about to beat icebourne). Thank you!
Let’s go!!! 👊
You are literally my guide to playing CB. Ill watch the video pick up something new then come back and learn even more
This is by far the best CB guide I have ever watched. Thank you for your wisdom sensei
I"ve been loving your videos since I found out about ur channel a while ago, so much info and I love it!
Glad you’re enjoying them, cheers for the support bro!
I started playing recently and instantly fell in love with this weapon. Thank you for the detailed guide!
Anytime buddy! Thanks for the support 🙏
this is pure gold, hands down the best in-depth guide for me so far. inspiring. i'll have to watch it maybe 300 times, but that's ok lol. these 47 min go like a breeze. thank u for your efforts! much appreciated.
What I respect most about this is that you are conscious of the example you are setting with your own runs and you explain why some of your builds contradict your advice of using Focus. That's a level of thoughtfulness not enough people put into their work.
Woops sorry for not replying earlier, this slip through the net, but I sincerely appreciate you acknowledging my efforts and your awesome support!
This has to be the most in-depth, well thought out and organized videos on CB I've ever stumbled upon. I'm gonna keep this video at hand since I need to generally improve my damage opportunities with the weapon.Tbh I'm a CB main, but after watching this for the first time I already noticed many of my mistakes regarding my DPS output. Thank you for all the hard work!

This is hands down the best CB or some of the best weapon guide content I have ever seen. Where have this bro gone. Just know your content still helping people who are late to IB. Thank you.
Still some if the easiest to follow tutorials I’ve seen for this game. Thanks for posting!
Your most welcome and appreciate your support 🙏
Took me a few days to completely watch this guide, but boy was it worth it. Thanks so much for the time you invest on this and props on how well it came out. 👌🏼
You're most welcome and it's always better late, then never 😉 Cheers for your support!!
Your guide are soooo good, i'mjust starting to use your advice on phial management and guard pointing and i feel already so much better than i was before...its so well explain👍
That’s what I’m talking about, thx for sharing your experience and more importantly your support!!
Really grateful for you breaking down the CB, been a CB main for so long, i know know the combos, do minimal managing phials. but the greater insight has proven to change my style on playing.
I was exactly the same and always just did things without even thinking... then when I started to speedrun I had to think about what combos are the most effective in certain parts of the fight, which then made me realise, “oh shit, ppl out there must be the same,” so I did this to help ppl better themselves. It’s applying discipline to what you already know in a way 🙏
I haven’t even watched the video yet, but it’s obvious how much work went into this. Good luck in the future and thank you for the video!
Yoo, i'm really happy that i found your channel, two days seeing your vids and already learned a lot ! Keep it up
It was our pleasure to help sh3rmsy ❤️ in case the discord link is buggy we’ll include another in the comment replies 😊
Such an amazing an in-depth content! Love it, I have been trying to get a grip on the CB for a while now and this has definitely hit the nail on the head on all the details that I need. Thank you! Keep up the great work
Thx for your awesome feedback buddy!! Glad you’re enjoying the content and hope it takes your game to the next level!
Btw, After watching this guide I easily improved my skills so much I started soloing monsters sub 10mins while carting less and increased my DPs output. This has changed my views on the weapon itself
Amazing guide! The most detailed guide of ANY weapon I've seen! Great job!
Hell yeah, thank buddy!
Hey thanks for this! I’ve been trying to learn the CB and this has greatly helped with that! Keep up the good work!
Thanks, will do! Appreciate the support 👌
Well organized, informative, clear and concise explanations. Great job on this guide Sh3rmsy, I found lots of techniques and efficiencies to work on and improve so I can make my hunts smoother. Thanks :)
That’s awesome and I’m really glad you enjoyed it! You should come join our community: discord.gg/UJsYUsK
Thanks for the guide! I picked up CB today after dabbling in DB and SnS speedruns, and I've gotta say I'm liking it so far!
Looking up guides for this purpose and saw that all your content was completed 3 years ago yet you're still active here. Awesome work, man. Cheers!
this was one of the best video game guides (overall) i've ever watched, thanks a ton

This is by far the best guide for the CB I have ever watched. Thank you for the wisdom sensei
Thx for the great feedback and support! Hope it helps you on your journey to enjoying the game that much more 🤘
Late comment but I figured I may as well: Excellent guide, thank you for making it! I've been meaning to start a fresh file playing only charge blade so I can progressively assimilate the weapon's playstyle over the course of the game's difficulty curve and I'll definitely be referring back to this guide as I start getting my bearings with it.
Love the bgm, wild arms is one of my favorites.
Your cb videos are still the best on yt. 3 years later and i still come back to watch the gameplay and hear what you have to say
Oh wow, your words are too kind 😜 Glad you still enjoy it and find value 🙏
Your videos are always fantastic. I really appreciate the inclusion of each subject in the video timeline.
No worries at all, anything to make it easier for ppl especially long guides like this. Cheers for the awesome support!
This is such a good guide im picking up CG in the end days of Iceborne so i can start with in it Rise and this is insanely helpful.
I've mained CB since launch.. This guide is a masterclass..
this is the best cb guide I watched. thank you for this
Love these types of videos man, please keep em coming!
Thx buddy and will hopefully do so
World was my introduction to the series, and for some reason I constantly gravitated towards CB because everything just clicked. And for a while I was kicking ass. But after beating Shara and unlocking the Guiding Lands, I realized that I need to understand this weapon better and honestly this guide is eye opening.
I know I just commented on your other vid but obsessed with your vids now! Such good information
It’s makes me so happy to hear you’re enjoying the content and let me know in a while how the guide has helped you 😉
Awesome guide. Got back into the game recently. Love this wep
I've been playing CB for ~250 hrs and in the first minute of the video I learn you could charge phials into an immediate axe spin attack. blows my mind
This was a very good and informative video. I typically run all weapons with a huge LS bias, but this video will definitely have a positive effect on how I run CB. Thanks.
Happy to hear my dude and would be great to have someone like you in our discord community: discord.gg/pxvRdFE
Glad to see I'm doing good, just my combos during a knockdown need adjustment. Very helpful info, thanks
Brian Quijada That’s great new dude and glad this will help you evolve! Cheers for the support 🤘
top notch, the effort and time you put into these videos is really appreciated! :)
UPLOAD
Considering making a return to MOHW and needed to brush up on my CB skills. Great video!
Love the wild arms BGM during the first part of this guide
simplest charge blade tutorial:
This guide really is excellent, very well explained steps. Awesome job.
Thx bro, really appreciate, come join our discord and meet the community: discord.gg/pxvRdFE
I immediately recognized the cover version of Bloody Tears during your conclusion: I’ve loved that particular version for several years now, nice to hear it!
You gave great taste sir 🥂
@@SH3RMSY you as well!
Thank you very much for this really good and interesting video. Learned a lot new stuff. Love your guides man.
Cheers buddy, glad you’re having fun with them!
Amazing guide man! This is pure gold! Keep up the good vids!
Manuel Gonzalez Diaz Thx brother and appreciate your support!!
Just started playing MHW like two weeks ago. Your guides is such a blessing since I want to main CB and send my melee friends flying for interrupting me on my combos. lol. you got a new subsriber! love your content man!
Thx and really appreciate your support!! I wish I had something like this when I started which would have accelerated my learning, so consider yourself lucky 🥰
Lovely Guide here.
I just wanted to add to 3:35.
I prefer over charging my phails (red phail) before charging my shield.
So I'll load the first set into the shield, overcharge phails, charge the shield, load the second set (you'll still have the overcharged phails after charging the shield) then immediately charge sword slam.
The combo is very similiar, I just charge the shield at the end of the combo, followed by the charged sword.
Whether this is more efficient, I can't tell you. This is just a variation I've grown to like using.
I've played CB since I started MHW. I watched dozens if guides on it and this is one of the best. The section on timers and phial resets was incredibly useful. SAED is dead and I have found my new religion. I subscribed as soon ad I finished this video!
Wow this was awesome stuff! Just starting CB on iceborne and this would help immensely.
Cheers for the support! You may find my Guard Point guide more helpful for as a beginner, check that out and let me know what you think 👊😉
Had to watch it twice. First fo the incredible gameplay and the second time a tried to listen what he is saying and not get distracted by this gameplay again.
Your hilarious, love it!!! Not gonna lie, sometimes when I rewatch certain bits, I too get caught up watching the gameplay and not listening properly 🤣🤣🤣
DUDE! You just made me that much better of a CB player. I just recently started maining CB and have a really good Shattershield setup. Your guide has me really clipping my kill times down and aiming better for max dps, both in SAED and Savage play styles.THANKS HOMIE!
Love it! Thank you for sharing and appreciate your support.
only came to learn the mindset of the two different playstyle and when to use either style. came out started rethinking on how i play CB in general.... and i just started playing the game again few days ago. 10/10 would definitely come back to watch again.
Really glad you enjoyed it and have fun playing the game with a new insight 👊
This is a great video. I pretty much have everything down but I need to work on my gaurd points. Those are a hard to work with when I'm always doing combos as I'm building my phials
You got this!
Unpopular opinion : each and every music played during this video is an absolute banger.
Thanks for this! I always thought the charge blade was cool but I'm really bad at it. This guide has made me want to try it again now that I'm better informed.
This video is all that i ever wanted to know about charge blade and more! Thank you for posting this!
It would be sick if you made an example full hunt and told why you performed every move and your thought process!
Glad you enjoyed it and I’ve had so many requests for what you’re requesting and is a series I’m very strongly thinking about! Out of curiosity, what’s your opinion on monsters I should start the series out with?
SH3RMSY I feel like nergigante is a good start but any monster you are comfortable with would be great! ^_^
Agent Wildfire Great suggestion! I’d like to hear more ideas from you and I’m sure the team would appreciate you, come join our discord community: discord.gg/XUBKkAB
Excellent guide, i hoping backup in the game and i needed this!
Also, hearing tales of vesperia battle music makes me supr nostalgic!
Hi! Just wanted to say that I really appreciate your videos. There is a tremendous amount of work and information behind them and it shows.
I already played a bit of cb, but your guard pointing video made so it is my main weapon now. Learning to guard point and starting to do it naturally as a reflex has been the most fun I've had playing this game (Also ko'ing monsters off guard points has to be the most satisfying move in the entire game, don't @ me).
There is a lot of information to digest in this one, and I look forward to getting better and better playing the different playstyles. I had entirely dropped Unga Bunga SAED style, but I now realize that I had been playing that suboptimally so I'll have to give it another try.
Phial management looks and feels like an entirely separate science inside the weapon. For now I'll follow your advice and integrate Focus on my builds, since I'd been skipping it because it felt a bit too comfortable.
I still feel that I'm very bad at both the weapon and the game, and your videos kinda point the direction I have to go towards if I want to improve, so thank you very much for that.
Finally suggestions... I'm a sucker for builds and combinations of skills so I'd be curious about the builds you run with the CB's you use more frequently, and how those builds directly affect the playstyle you decide for the hunt.
What fantastic feedback and thanks for sharing your experience!! I’m glad these guides are helping and yes Focus just makes you get charged ASAP so you can start positioning yourself for real damage. The reason a lot of my speedruns don’t use focus is that they are scripted runs where I practically know or plan for certain moves to happen and every one of my hits/charges is prepared for optimum damage. I never use my No Focus speedrun builds on my casual hunts or multiplayer speedruns since I can’t anticipate as well in multiplayer, thus wasting time charging is not an option. Plus more focus means you can react quicker with guard points etc. It’s completely normal to start slow with the CB, it took me a while to really get to grips with it especially effectively Guard pointing. Optimum phial management was never on my radar until I did multiple speedruns where I realised calculating certain combos at certain situations of the fight was necessary. I hope you keep enjoying the CB and would love to have you join our discord if you want to get more tips etc: discord.gg/UJsYUsK
What a fantastic informative guide. Sharing this to a discord or two that I’m in!
Much love buddy and really appreciate your awesome support, couldn’t ask for more 💪🤘
Nice dude I hoped on Mh4u and have been a charge blade user. This guide really helped me decide how to use my philas more often
That’s what I’m talking about and glad you appreciate it! Go kick some ass 🥾
subscribed! you deserve more recognition for this work, dude! keep it up!
Loving the support brother! 🙏
I think just watching you play has taught me tbh, a lot of things I didn't know how to do
Fanstastic news! You learn A LOT from watching and glad my content is helping you 🥰
This guy taught me better than any school education system ever could
First I learn guard pointing through your video. Now this will take me places! Thank you very much for this detailed guide. Mark me Subbed!
That’s what I’m talking about, builds vids next 💪
I’m 2:40 in..... had to pause to comment like and favorite. Thank you ahead of time! I can tell this is going to be great!!
Very much appreciated, but let me know your honest verdict at the end, good or bad ;-)
Very well explained, so much details and information. Thank you for this useful guide.
To be honest, my first thought was "wow, such a long video" but well, there is 47 min of outandout information, just to the point, very well organized and explained. Nice pace btw, peaceful voice.
You know, maybe you could make a abridged version of this video, just to catch a larger audience. Anyway, nice video, time to train and happy hunting
Fantastic feedback and really appreciate your support! Would love to hear any ideas you got in our community: discord.gg/UJsYUsK
