Great video!
Poor banbaro.
Only real disagreement is insect glaives difficulty, super easy to use once you realize you need red essence to hit hard, otherwise greatly thank you as now I understand more of the basic (and not so basic) oddities of the weapons
10/10 will watch again
Great video man! this is really helpful for my wife and I. We play pretty much all the weapons and I had no idea the charge blade could spin the axe mode like that!
question wich weapon is the easiest for gamers who never played monster hunter
Basically, if you're playing Insect Glaive You are playing Monster Hunter: Airborne
I was thinking: Skywalker
@RichyBroXD fishy army
Incectglaive in my opinion is dual blades that can duel with flying monsters plus a bug for more damage
As fast as dual blades if your used to the attacks
The sad thing is I think air IG does less damage, this may have been changed in iceborn though I really don’t care
*The ultimate goal of longsword is to trip your fellow hunters*
And look like a bad az while doing it! Oh and making sure you the only one attacking at close range.
Don't forget taking the hammer's job and give them the great depression by always hogging the monster's head
*Laughs in one level of Flinch Free*
It is the way of the weeb
When I SOS, i always decline a player who wants to join if I see then using LS regardless of their ranks lol
“The insect glaive is the monster hunter equivalent of a pogo stick” That is the best way I’ve ever heard someone describe it
Why? It's obviously more of a pole vault situation. Pogo sticks bounce in a stationary area repeatedly never getting the air that a bendy stick could give to you.
No they're the true Kings of the skies
As most glaive user say
For me. The Ig made me feel like Darts Maul from star wars
Insect Glaive: When the normal evade/dash isn't enough for you because you're a bitch when it comes to taking damage.
Source: I use Insect Glaive.
As someone who plays great sword. I just like seeing big numbers. I don’t remember the monsters moves at all. Lol
There certainly is a rush with those big digits 😂
@@DarkkitesTV Rip duel blades than
Yeah same hahah , everytime I play with my team I’m like “ YO I JUST HIT HIM FOR ____ GET FUCKED “
That's why my they keep dying
@@DarkkitesTV MHtri got me into hard hitting weapons. Now I NEED to hit hard. None of that fast light shit... I want some IMPACT
I love the fact that he used footage of the same monster hunt but with different weapons, this way we get no spoilers. Thank you :')
Poor Banbaro
@@trick5832 great jagras gets it worst
im so starved for MHW content that Im watching a video about things I already know lol. Great begginer video and weapon info overall.
New trailer tomorrow, my dude.
Yeah same dude
I actually blew my laptop screen and tried to remove what i though was a piece of hair on my screen. (Your display picture)
i thought your display picture is real hair on top of my phone lol
Stop it. Get some help. Brought to you by Michael Jordan and MC Donald's
Long sword has reached a new level of anime that has never even been imagine
The only thing it's missing is if the Hunter puts it in his/her waist and apply the "No Damage Until I Put Back My Sword" Then it's perfect
I think that was the point.
Indeed
objectively speaking this game is less animeish
Iai spirit slash is legitimately the best attack in any video game hands down
i love how you dont spoil me what other monsters are there in the iceborne. Props to you
Best way to describe the dual blades.
*beyblade theme music*
You basically become Levi from Attack on Titan
@@Beecanoe biggest and sharpest beyblade
They've done a good job making all the weapon types appealing.
No Banboro was hurt during the making of this video. He was just cooperate with Bomstick to demonstrate the 14 weapons... I hope
rofl
I'm just happy charge blade won't sheath and then unsheathe into axe mode because I was desperately trying to fire a flash pod.
I relate to this pain all to well
I relate to this on a spiritual level
So can we agree as CB main to fire flash pods everytime possible?
My fellow HH hunters we finally GET THE ZINOGRE ELECTRIC GUITAR!
As a proud HH main im crying tears of joy!
I would have preferred the bassarios ROCK guitar...
HELL YEAH!
Now for the unholy grind to get it
Hell yeah! That means all 5 oft us can join a Band!

How does this not have more likes ?!??!
... just realized it has this in the description but Thx
Already listed in the description.
@@sebastianhdr7739 sorry but when this was uploaded, there wasn’t any timestamps, i should delete this comment 🤣
Switch Axe has been my baby since the 3DS games and I'm in love with even these little changes
Man I would bet money on it that you‘re a lance main! That was an excellent demonstration of it! I main CB and LS but that convinced me to give lance a shot. Thank you man!
Rofl. I AM a lance main! With a side of Long Sword!
@@BoomstickGaming haha gotcha! The flow of your fighting style and your experience totally shines through! Keep up playing and happy hunting fella! Hype for Iceborne!!! 😄
The problem with lance is its damage is trash compared to other weapons end game builds. You dont need defense when you can have a monster on the floor until it dies. Just makes hunts last longer.
@Jeffrey Kyle exactly, with all the other weapons you have to wait at certain points with lance theres not much downtime. I stoped using it cause the game became to easy
@@-LucidDreamer- Go look up some team darksiders lance speed runs, the dps potential is absolutely disgusting
As a long sword main, I am so excited to figure out how to work the Iai slash into my combos. Also I would like to formally apologize to all the hunters I’ve ever tripped in this game. I promise it wasn’t on purpose
Heh, same
I've never tripped any other hunters.
*Cries in shitty internet*
As an SnS main who always has Level 1 Flinch Free...
It's ok.
*laughs in bows falling rocks*
Getting tripped by LS players is honestly not a big deal for me since it is negated with flinch free.
Now heavy bowguns spamming clusters on a downed monster on the other hand...
I still have nightmares.
This description of the hunting horn is the best one I've heard in a video that isn't focused entirely on it. The lack of the word "support" really does it justice and I think it's wonderful that they didn't talk more about your team than the user.
One of the best explanations I've ever heard for the lance. As a lance main I salute you.
That's because he's also a lance main! :)
hope wasn't biased
lol... love you renamed your palico to match each weapon.
me how do you rename a palico????
@@marentes310 only for the beta though
madara uchiha ahhhh okay. I was bout to say.
"the switch axe is a morphine weapon"
Right, it feels as good at least.
That's what I heard lmfao
boomstick, i've frequented your channel from time to time and i must say. this is by FAR the best description of MH weapons i've seen. all very accurate, concise, and simple for new or curious gamers. i've been looking for a quick breakdown for some people at work that have interest but everytime i explain MH they get scared of it. this is a great help thanks!
I shared this with all of my friends, what a wonderful and super detailed video. Can't wait for next week!!!
Insect Glaive ftw
Actually, even as a long time MH vet, this is a very nice comprehensive video to the new additions of Iceborne. I may need to brush up on my lance and bowgun skills now. Thanks!
Subscribed. Great info for each weapon without taking too much time to describe each. Good job!
brand new player here! I really appreciated the depth of each weapon type.
Jessica if you’re on ps4 I can join you since I just started the dlc
@@crimsonclover1588 simp
bigboy7 he didn’t say he would sell his house got her. So what do you mean simp?
Excellent vid. Looking forward to January when I can play iceborne!
It will be here before you know it!
Lance mains unite! Also I heard about a guard jewel that increases dps if u block?
Yup, it’s like a fifteen percent
WHAT! I can have a dps boost by doing my job?
Offensive Guard, solid perk
@@munky342 Lances main FTW!!
@@jonatassa6258 can't wait for the 6th to arrive.
i already knew all of this but you explained everything so well i just kept watching. you're pretty damn good!
Hey this is actually really helpful thanks
"If you would like to play from the longest possible distance in mhw the heavybowgun is for you"
Laughs in glutton spread
You forgot to mention that the hammer is the one that most benefits from the clutch claw. Becoming a spinning sticky hammer. Very satisfying when the monster leaves from one location to the next and right before he starts moving you manage to clutch claw it and your hunter flys like never before taking you with it until you hammer it lol. I'm a Flying Hammer Main.
Quite late, but there also is a similar counter on lance that gives you about 5 seconds of super armor to allow you to soften or burst, even through attacks (if you have the health to spare).
Your ability to detail these incredibly nuanced games is awesome man! Keep up the good work
Great video, the info is on point and it can greatly help new players
Thanks for showing what the new changes were for the Iceborne expansion. This'll come in handy once I get started on it. For me I'll still be using Switch Axes, Sword and Shields and Insect Glaives like before😁👍
First time getting a monster hunter game ever. Downloading on my xbox now. Was looking for a new game to try out and was shocked by how much content there was for a game I've barely ever heard of before. Looking forward to starting
Yo MH vet here, have you found a weapon play style you like?
I came for a weapon demo and left watching the best possible video i could have found on his topic. Thank you! Keep up the good work
Brooooo this video was so helpful! I just bought the game and Iceborne isnt out on PC yet, so this video helped me pick a main based on future update :D
loving the effort put into this guide... 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thank YOU!
Shared, thats a real quality indepth video. I got 650 hours on mhw and had em all since psp 2000. Tri being my fave of all time. Thats a really really good beginners video pal !

UNDERWATER MONSTERS ARE OPPRESED GAMERS RISE UP
I know you put in a lot of work in both weapon videos but man I really appreciate it!
man on this point i just have to say. didnt see a video for long time doing exactly what it prommises like this one. rly good job! sry for bad eng.
Good stuff. Straight to the point and with time stamps, all in one place. What a champ. Thanks for this video!
Thanks!
I've mained Greatsword since Monster Hunter 3 but I was also a dedicated Insect Glaive user in MH4U. The transforming weapons are also quite fun. Really the only weapons I've never gotten into for a while are the gunner weapons, I just don't like being limited by the ammunition.
rewatched the videos, to check how to guide a newcomer friend, just realized how much love you put into it, the order of the weapons is the inverted order of the base game video
Great video, helped me a lot to reconsider my weapon choice by personal style!
8:19 Levi’s signature move in MHW
you did an awesome job with this video, great commentary and notes.. I think I'll try to get the hang of hunting horn now.
Thank you
Very Concise and smart, since it helped me alot I sent it ahead to some friends so hoping it helps them just as much. Thank you very much for the time something like this takes to script, capture, edit and upload. Was a fun watch and very good help and refresher.
Thanks for checking out a bunch of my stuff, Michael! Appreciate that
@@BoomstickGaming anytime, thank you for your intelligent passionate reviews :)
this was awesome and very informative thank you sir.
New note for HH :o. I must add this new horn to my already extensive horn collection.
Important note, the LBG's Wyvern Blast doesn't detonate by "Monster Proximity". It detonates if the monster hits it with an attack. Otherwise you'll want to detonate them yourself by shooting them.
Thank you so much for this video!
Best breakdown of the changes I’ve seen. Kudos to you and I wish your channel ever more success.
Thanks!
this is yet the best made, edited and informative videos about icebornes weapon enhancements as well as overall tips and tricks for new players
Awesome. Thanks!
Yes as a Hunting horn main this opens new potential and combos as well as support to help, also even tho it’s underrated as a weapon and considered as a support weapon this improves its skill and potential as a hunting horn.
HH is the best weapon nobody uses. I think at this point noone underestimates it tho, especially if they've hunted with a HH main.
HH does the hammers job better and quicker.
Last time I seen a HH was when kulve teroth came out lol
it IS a support weapon, that's why it's underrated
I tried , I tried to use this weapon multiple times and then I decided f*ked it , I'm going back to weapon with a shield .
Outstanding video. Thank you
Beautiful job on this video
I'm so happy that IG will be getting some damage buffs as it wasnt used as much.
Great video, just what I was looking for ^^
The new attacks look so cool and it seems like the balance changes made more viable playstyles with certain weapons.
This is a great video for those who are looking to start MHW. I've played for awhile and I main a few weapons, especially dual blades because I love to shred with them. Using this video I might start to main with all weapons. I'm definitely recommending this to some friends I play with
Ty for making this video i just picked up monster world and iceborne trying to watch all the vids i can ty for this
I'm a dual blades main, but this video made me want to try every single weapon out. Excellent video!!!

Magicoof Mac welcome to the brotherhood padawan.
As a main ham just wanted to say to my fellow hammers that with Safi jivas new ham weapon when you have the ham fully awakened the eye 👁🗨 on the ham will glow and burn when you are fully charged (3rd charge stage). Pretty cool touch to the weapon we love to use so dearly haha. Would be cool if there was a ham that would change the color depending on the charge stage.
Jack Woods Been doing it since I posted my comment, now I’m the stun-chain master of sleep, I am ready for the trials
Excellent vidéo, thank you
I don't even use aerial moves that much; I just love the Insect Glaive for its massive reach, fast attacks and good combination of horizontal and vertical strikes that can be chained together seamlessly once you have a Red charge.
Plus, the kinsects are cute.
very informative thanks!
Welcome!
*Many Banbaros were killed in the making of this video*
Great info and video. Time to get my insect glaive out.
Really useful video, thanks!
This would help rookies so much, you went in depth but kept it simple at the same time, even talk about role, good stuff!
I think his original is what they need to watch first, then this really good overall though.
vero citen will do thanks for the recommendation.
@@MTheroy no problem glad to help another Hunter! I hope you enjoy his great game and community!
Great explanation! Liked, commented and subbed!
Sweet! Thanks
Nice vid, thanks
Such a great Video!
I am new to the game and after i(somehow) got past the PC bug,i went and tried most of the weapons in the training area with the Charge blade as my current one, but might give the Heavy Bowgun and some of the others a spin as well in the future since what u showed really looked awesome!
Thanks!
I thought I would end up gravitating towards the sword and shield but I actually found myself liking the hammer better. Something about stunning the enemies is incredibly satisfying to me.
Great cover of weapons adjustments can't wait to play. Woot!
I'm a long time veteran, and as such, this video and it's content is nothing new to me, but, your eloquence and delivery made this video enjoyable. I think that if I was new to MH, I would be real hyped to try these weapons, because of how you described them. Good shit.
Great video man! Awesome info for beginners or undecided hunters.
The weapons I use the most is the great sword, long sword, sword and shield , insect glaive and charge blade with the most mastered weapon which is most of the weapons I use except the charge blade I can't seem to master it though
ugh I just love the insect glaive and use it all the time. I think it would be better to learn from experience because it has so much to it but if you still want to read my thoughts on it, I just really feel like talking about it ;u;
the thing I love about this weapon the most is it makes me have to think fast because it gives me a lot to think about. Like... a LOT. Like if you've checked the video and saw that 5* complexity rating it's not lying.
That's usually only best for you once you've gotten used to the game, weapon, and monsters. but I find once you reach that point of familiarity this weapon becomes really satisfying once you've gotten things down, especially when you discover new aspects to it that you never knew/realized before. I've found that happened to me a _lot_ when picking up this weapon.
With the insect glaive, you have to manage getting attack output, focusing on keeping your buffs up, managing you kinsect's stamina (which actually becomes way easier with the spirit kinsect that some slinger ammo gives it, thank you iceborne) and making sure it stays marked on the monster so it can keep dropping clouds all over the place.
You also want to use the vaulting for mobility (with the white buff it gives really nice mobility without having to put the weapon away) or gaining height with out-of-reach flying monsters or raised parts that you might want to break OR vaulting to dodge attacks once you recognize monster patterns enough to realize you are about to get crushed to death OR vaulting to build mounting damage onto the monster. As everybody else always says to those who ask about the glaive, don't just jump around all the time, because the glaive builds up the best damage on the ground!
Another thing I discovered is don't be afraid to spam your bug attack at the monster when it's way out of reach/fleeing and you need time to catch up with it. Just gets some minor damage accumulating on it, but I've also discovered sometimes I can accidentally flinch the monster (and on rarer occasions, break one of its parts with the bug). Definitely be sure to keep upgrading your kinsect so it can become more effective. Main point is, don't neglect to think about your little buggy!!
You definitely will need to get used to the weapon, but once you do, focusing on all of that during battle is much easier than it sounds :b
I'm quite aware that I've possibly scared off a bunch of people with those paragraphs because not everybody wants to manage so much at once and those who watch this video are potentially very new to this game. But I'm at least hoping to reach out to the others who are like me who enjoy being given a lot to think about in games like this! I feel like that's one aspect of this weapon I rarely see explained to people. All I ever see is "je suis monte." :b
freohr789 yeah, Insect Glaive and Switch Axe are like tied for my secondary weapon. I’m a charge blade main, but i love weapons that enable you to have vast depth in the multitude of styles you’re able to utilize with just one weapon.
The idea of the glaive producing the best dps on the ground is outdated tbh. If you build the weapon correctly it hits big numbers from the air aswel as the ground, giving allround play. I usually hit 3(160-230) for using the R2 slam out of the air on a monsters tenderised head, plus I use blast, stun insect to either increase a free 300 blast damage number or create stun build up, works amazingly (3 circle ground attack will probably do about 350 damage total and airbound circle will do in the region of 200-350 attack depending on how many hits connect... However it leads to the slam whereas the triple circle ground attack is a finisher, so airborne for continuously higher dps ☺️ hope this helps
Great video!!! Thanks so much.
Wow great Video,
short and to the point.
Even if i played MHW 200hours and like to used almost all weapons I don't know about some things, Thanks a lot
I wanna play like all the weapons. I I thought a lot about what weapon to start out with in Iceborne. But I decided to just go with my "safe picks", the weapons I use when I wanna kill a monster fast and still be super safe.
Those are Charge Blade and Longsword for me.
I recommend trying insect glaive too, that’s my main... once you get the flow of using your kinsect to power up it’s super smooth.
Setting up a ton of dust clouds around a monster and helicoptering your way through them (causing them all to go off at once) is unbelievably satisfying.
If a safe playstyle is your choice then go with the Sword and Shield.
Useful combo for longsword : after preforming your spirit combo to gain a spirit level, instead of letting the sheathing animation finish you can do a manual sheath and continue attacking after your basic slash, this is a great combo to go crazy on the tail. Just watch for your teammates
What teammates? 😞
great video!
i've been using the charge blade pretty much exclusively since i started the game but im thinking of branching out a little, try out some of the other weapons. im thinking maybe lance or heavy chain gun, maybe even the horn. this video gave me some ideas and some insight in to how they work. my thanks
Where my Bow Bois at?! Gotta love that sweet spot distance, almost feels like dual classing honestly!
I’m glad you have over 100k subs
Thanks!
Don’t usually comment but this was a perfectly made video. Thanks for creating and sharing.
Thanks!
Nice vid man, personally, id just tell them to try the easiest weapons to start with, and leave others like CB or GL for later, thats if they want a smooth introduction to fighting monsters, i started with the hammer and later on i moved on to the cb, which was incredibly hard for me to master, loved the learning process though
I just started playing the game a few weeks ago and have only used the Gunlance, I just love it's defense
Well Done
Well made! Subbed ! :)
good stuff, im subbed now :)
This was a really good guide, I shared it with my monster Hunter buddies for you 💕
All I know is my bodies ready....to get roflstomped by Glavenus and all the monsters I’ve never fought before but BRING IT ON BEBY!
Nice video too I’m learning CB and DB right now and as a LS main I’m very excited!!!
Sorry for tripping any of you...
From my experience glavenus is a really easy monster to manipulate and abuse
Bro your gameplay is so good.
Excellent video
