Great guide, that part about always first taking the extract and then whacking the monster while it's down is very helpful for beginners since it doesn't seem like it but it helps a lot in the long run with the hunt
@@KingRobRool I played all games since MH1… now i just wish to have some fun trying all weapons, but the changes in moves can be daunting… hard to use some of them with a minimal competence… so imagine if I need to watch a 30 min guide before trying all of them… noo… to me your guides are perfect, straight to the important points… already watched them all… congrats 👏🏼
Thank you so much for this guide!! I've been an IG main since MHW and its takin me a hot second to get used to how the Rise IG works. Seeing a good quick but effective break down like this video helps so much!!! Also I love the extra helicopter moments we're allowed with wirebygs. I just wanna be a helicopter with bug frens.
this is a great guide for folks starting out with insect glaive. I've exclusively used it since MH4U, my first entry in the series, so I was curious if I would learn anything from this that I didn't already know. the only thing I can think of is the fact that diving wyvern gets a damage bonus from the jumping combos. I'll have to give that a shot. I would have also mentioned how some kincencts do blunt damage, giving you access to easy stuns by marking the head and going for bonks, especially on bugs with charge bonuses. (that and the fact that getting all 3 at once sets all 3 on one standardized timer, so if you just sit on 2 of them with your bug out in the air holding the 3rd until its stamina naturally runs out, you can effectively hold onto your red bonus for much longer than if you just grabbed all 3 right away.)
This is the weapon that really clicked for me. I used it through the entire game. The mobility allows for constant attacking. It's damage however only gets good later in the game. Overall, very fun weapon. Would recommend!
So I've been playing with DB since I started playing a few days ago and I've been wanting to try this weapon out for ages and I LOVE THIS WEAPON. It's SO COOL!! I didn't understand the kinsect stuff until I saw this video so thank you so much! Gonna try it out on a quest now after messing about in training grounds with it :D
It really is a mix between the pole and Nimbus lol! Great catch! Insect glaive was pretty fun in 4U and I remember it being a little OP, but definitely great for mounting Monsters!
Haha liked my little joke there? 😂. Yeah I remember IG and CB just being bonkers in 4U. But still really fun 😁. So glad they simplified kinsects though because that was way too convoluted back then.
@@KingRobRool yeah I don't remember even leveling up my kinsect because I didn't understand what to do lol so I just switched over to either the Switch Axe or Great Sword 😅
Well this is amazing because I started playing and saw this cool weapon, but only to find out I can't figure it out😅. Then, lucky this video explained it well (plus showed how cool it can be staying in the air), now I can't find myself to switch to another weapon for too long😂.
I've been maining lance for so long and thought I hated all the other weapons. I always thought managing extracts would be too micromanage-y. Thanks to this vid I decided to give IG another shot and... wow. This way more fun than lance. I'm hooked! My only complaint is the starting silkbind attacks seem really bad...
Thank you. My problem with the glaive is tht aerial movement, so thanks for putting in a short bit for the aerial combo. I'm new to using the glaive, so i still dont know much. Now i can practive aerial movements.
Thank you. Finally got on to Rise and I was kinda anxious that Glaive was so slow since I was used to Aerial style in MHGU. So I need go unlock that via Hub 6 quest okie okie
Great guide, short and sweet. Used it in world and had some difficulty mastering the keybinds/combos for wirebug and the insects. It didn't help that switches ABXY buttons were all the opposite from XBOX controller
That does make it a little confusing. I use all controllers across games and the button placement is actually the same so that's how I remember the inputs.
Just to take note, aerial combat may look good on paper, but in practise it is pretty bad 80% of the time. 1. You have to land all 3 copters + diving wyvern to deal the full dmg of the combo, given how much monsters move around, and the distance travelled by you, it is pretty hard to pull it off even on a good day. 2. You are extremely vulnerable while you are in the air. Monsters have lateral move sets now and some of them hit extremely hard, it is extremely easy to get carted if you are not careful when you spam coptering. You can use SB vault, but that would eat up one wirebug for a slight distance coverage, imho it is not worth it. It is still better to save up for a wirebug fall when you get hit. 3. You have to worry about stamina management, getting all 3 aerial combos eats a ton of stamina, if you are not careful it will be hard to dodge monster attacks once you land. Especially when diving wyvern has a few lag frames after you land (again making you extremely vulnerable) + little to no stamina to dodge out of the way. 4. Sharpness depletion is another issue. On a realistic hunt, at the most you are able to do up to 2 aerial combos + diving wyvern, i would say ard 60%+ of the time you will be hitting bad hit-zones on the monster. Given how many hits you deal in a single copter, a lot of sharpness are going to waste because of this. There is a reason most IG speed runners barely use copter in their runs (they spam the living shit out of tornado slash). They often use it as a repositioning tool rather than using it as intended + diving wyvern are mostly used from the ground instead of chaining from copter. Hope this helps any players that wants to maximize their dps of this beloved weapon!
Thanks for you input! It definitely takes a lot of practice to get good at it. If we were talking MH World I would definitely focus more on grounded combat but I really think diving wyvern makes it worth practising. This guide is designed for people to have fun and not so much max dps. But I'm sure there will be those that are looking for that kind of opinion too so thanks for sharing 🙂
im main insect glaive, in world i kill fatalis with my insect glaive, in rise i dont have problems with the sharpness, and stamina was a issue just in the first half. in second half and rise i have more than enoght for atlest 2 full combos, also you can recover stamina between jumps, if you jump use a choper then whe you finish in the little jump you recover stamina before use the other choper, and just repeat is not just spam the bottom, and for sharpness in general the monster flee to the other area before i need to resharp, the bad part about that is in small and mid wyvern are hard to full combo in air, but hey i use insect glaive sience mh4 maybe the experiecne help me ot that and in rise is even easier
@@KingRobRool just a advice, before you use the other chopper your stamina barr will star to recover, if you have good timing you can do 2 full combos and land with enoguht stamina for dodge or run XDD
I played a lot of monster hunter rise when it first came out. It's been a while though and I am prepping for sunbreak. These guides are great for refreshing the basics and also for trying out a new weapon.
I just wish I could get triple buff quicker and more reliably. I have a real problem getting it from certain monsters. Mounting, too. Aiming air attacks feels tricky sometimes.
best strats I know of for maintaining essences is to grab red and one other, but hold off on grabbing the third for about 30 seconds or so, and then hit the monster to collect the third with the bug, but don't bring it back to you, just let its stamina naturally run out, and come back on its own. when you collect all 3, the buff you get is on a static timer that starts from the moment you get all 3, so if you just wait until one of the other two are about to run out before grabbing the third, it will give you the highest up time with the lowest maintenance. the other strat is to intentionally not go for all 3, and instead just mark the head and go for repeated bug headshots now and then. this works best with blunt damage bugs with a charge effect, allowing you to go for KO hits, as well as keep your red topped off for much longer.
Rurikhan thinks I'm watching an hour long video to learn a weapon. He can take an hour to learn how to eat Duramboros dung. Good video. I personally use advancing roundslash because it's easier to catch up with monsters that way. For me at least.
I'm a new player to MH Rise on pc and would love to know more on this. I loved your longsword keyboard controls video and would love to see one on this glaive and maybe the lance?
I'm not likely to make more mouse and keyboard videos real soon but hopefully the inputs for the long sword guide can give you a bit of guidance for at least what buttons to press. Sorry, just don't have a lot of free time lately.
@@KingRobRool aww sad to hear that.. But I hear ya. I understand. I hope your days are an ease on you. Thank you for your content. I appreciate them and your kind reply
I do want to try and learn this weapon. It's the only weapon I haven't really messed around with. As a Lance main, I do like long pointy weapons :D just the micromanagement of a lot of weapons is a little tedious but I think the Glaive would be fun. Just one quick question, I don't need build specifics really but, how is the weapon for sharpness management? Would you go Polish or Touch? Would you go Raw or Ele? Status? Being a rapid hit weapon similar to DB I figured ele would be good considering you have access to weak points other weapons don't really benefit from.
Yeah I never really go raw for IG, usually status or elemental. As for sharpness, in Rise I usually just go speed sharpening since its so easy to fit in and is really quick. That's just my opinion though.
@@KingRobRool I usually run a couple speed sharpening on every build. With the shortcut to sharpen with any weapon unsheathed it's super nice with the radial quick menu whetstone. Doesn't work with the standard Y button menu. I'll have to throw together a couple Glaive builds before Sunbreak, see how I like it. My buddy wants to try new weapons too, oddly enough he wants to learn Lance :D my specialty. I'll probably give him my old build to try.
My favorite is when you finish the boss with a bug or diving wyvern. This mythical creature, trained and generically superior to most.....dies to a bug.
The only problem for me is how to get the red insect to appear, like a sometimes get the white and orange, or the red and orange, its kinda hard to summon those 3 or one of them. Edit: oh nvm lol, i know now how to get them, thanks.
I'm a noob who has never played a combat game before so imagine my surprise when I figured out how extracts work when I was nearly to Magnamalo. At that point I managed to master my dodge well enough so at least extracting wasn't to hard... Hey! Look! I don't game. Like close to never until the end of this year. How was I suppose to knoooowwwww.....!? arghhhh!!!
silk bug recharge so fast that you're better off spamming air combos non-stop which objectively does more DPS than ground combos. That's a real bummer for me because there's no big ground finisher in sunbreak that uses up your silk bugs either which would have made ground-glaive builds viable. I love the glaive as a weapon, but I hate how it's implemented in this game.
@@KingRobRool Sort of but in terms of combat style it’s pretty different especially with the massive shield they carry. I wanna feel like Cu Chulainn and Glaive does that.
It's definitely buffed from World. But I can't say for sure which is the best approach from a pure dps point of view, I don't really crunch the numbers. I've found it to be really effective with my playstyle though 🙂
@@KingRobRool me too it's really awesome fly while some monsters didn't can do anything against you sometimes and I see they do better the best part of the IG with 3 air dashes
Question; as a new player to rise and a new glaive main...how do I trigger the strong attacks??? I already seem to do the regular attack of lunging and striking once in the air, instead of doing the multiple strikes at once in the air. Is there something I'm doing wrong, because I see no difference between your button inputs and mine. Is there a specific button I have to press for this? (I'm on the Switch btw.)
@@KingRobRool Ah, terribly sorry! I quickly skipped to the Aerial attacks assuming it was in there, my bad! I do appreciate the help either way, I was honestly struggling for a while trying to figure out what was up. /gen
World didn't give earplugs for that so you're not completely wigging out haha. Pretty sure gen u did as well but can't remember if 4u did. Probably yes?
@@KingRobRoolThat makes sense, I thought I was just good at dodging roars on rise lol. I was a dual blade main on 4u and didn't try the new weapon. Picked the glaive because of Nergigante and fell in love with it ever since
If what you mean is getting 2 extracts, I explained at the start of the video that it's because I'm using a dual colour kinsect. You can buy them at the blacksmith. If you haven't unlocked them yet you may need to advance the story further.
why do none of these guides actually show the practicality of the moves IN COMBAT. how tf am I supposed to know I should be using aerial vs ground attacks on different monsters, how to know when to dodge and the like, if all you do is show basic combos in a safe environment? I practiced my combos and the like, figured out the moveset, but literally none of that translates into how to attain high dps in practical combat, how to dodge actual hits, etc. All it translates is me fucking around in the air, getting 1 hit, landing on the ground and tanking a tailwhip.
It's a quick guide that's only meant to show the basics. Plenty of combat and long guides out there mate. Check out Ratatoskr for some good insect glaive vids if you need.

Great guide, but you only need White and Orange extract for Earplugs. Some people use Foebeetle to get the buff before the first monster roar
Good point! I should have elaborated on that. I'll pin this one :)
That why the white kinsect are the best one, can easily get red or orange when needed
@@陳嘉宇-y4q the priority for the second extract gathering is white, red, then orange
@@abrammill9365 I always went white/orange first then the red, but that slows down my offense
Finally, thank you so much. These weapon guides really don’t need to be 30mins long
i literally stopped at 7mins watching the guide from other youtuber
Great guide, that part about always first taking the extract and then whacking the monster while it's down is very helpful for beginners since it doesn't seem like it but it helps a lot in the long run with the hunt
Thanks! At the end of the day people will do what they wanna do but if I can show them there is a better way I will try to!
Nice quick guide! 5 min instead of 20-30 min we found with many youtubers is really nice!
Thanks! Hope it helped you as an introduction to the weapon 🙂

Thanks! I hope it helps 😁
Insect Glaive is my favourite weapon, so even though I'm already a pro with it, I want to support this video anyways!
Thanks so much! Also, I love hearacross! Best bug boy ❤
I tried in Icebourne, and its became my favorite weapon! Arch Tempered Velkhana so much easier with it!
Great video! Really information and concise. I decided to try insect glaive and it is great fun being able to pull of a few moves!
Didn't know about earplug, I'm really looking forward learning this flashy weapon
Love a succinct guide like this. Perfectly brought me up to speed on the changes they made to the best weapon between World and Rise.

They are not the best but the heal backflip one becomes way more useful in master rank because by then your kinsect can heal you for way more.
These weapon guides are amazing, thanks man

didnt realize how simple the weapon really is. gather extract, attack monster, repeat
But do it stylishly
This was VERY helpful
Love it. Currently studying IG
The incarnation of "the floor is lava" haha, love playing it in 4U (doing it while listening to this video) so I imagine I would LOVE it in Rise

Great guide, short and sweet. Used it in world and had some difficulty mastering the keybinds/combos for wirebug and the insects.
It didn't help that switches ABXY buttons were all the opposite from XBOX controller

Used insect glaive for 5 years on both rise and world and I just learned that 3 extracts gets you lvl 5 earplugs
World didn't give earplugs for that so you're not completely wigging out haha. Pretty sure gen u did as well but can't remember if 4u did. Probably yes?
@@KingRobRoolThat makes sense, I thought I was just good at dodging roars on rise lol.
I was a dual blade main on 4u and didn't try the new weapon. Picked the glaive because of Nergigante and fell in love with it ever since
Jewel color kinsect?
It's dual. I'm not sure if you're making fun of my accent or not.
What the fudge is a Zr?
Yo, you might like to check out my updated guide with all inputs. Check the description!
pls reply anyone im new to insect glaive and i think its my second main now hahahaha how are you getting to numbers in one insect shot?
If what you mean is getting 2 extracts, I explained at the start of the video that it's because I'm using a dual colour kinsect. You can buy them at the blacksmith. If you haven't unlocked them yet you may need to advance the story further.
Which glaive is that one?
Zinogre tree!
@@KingRobRool THANK YOU
You're welcome!
Why doesn’t this seem more complicated than the charge blade 🤣
Nice crocman
Thanks Ham man 🙂
@@KingRobRool Haha I'm still in 4u and glaive is my favorite weapon ever
Great game! I hate the way you have to upgrade the kinsect and glaive in it, but still a super powerful choice 🙂
@@KingRobRool well i dont know how it will turns in the next games but here we go
Zr ????

why do none of these guides actually show the practicality of the moves IN COMBAT. how tf am I supposed to know I should be using aerial vs ground attacks on different monsters, how to know when to dodge and the like, if all you do is show basic combos in a safe environment?
I practiced my combos and the like, figured out the moveset, but literally none of that translates into how to attain high dps in practical combat, how to dodge actual hits, etc. All it translates is me fucking around in the air, getting 1 hit, landing on the ground and tanking a tailwhip.
It's a quick guide that's only meant to show the basics. Plenty of combat and long guides out there mate. Check out Ratatoskr for some good insect glaive vids if you need.
I prefer AKA over the dive.
i somehow played mh4u without doing anything with my kinsect 🥲 ty for informing how important they are, great and concise video!!!
Wow now that's an achievement 😅 thanks for the feedback 😁
Wtf, how did you played like that?
@@tiagonogueira2567 I had a friend who played most of MH4U without extracts, bad vaults and sad insect pokes. Occasional hunter art lol.
