bro the entire foresight slash is a parry - it has i-frames essentially through the whole animation. if you successfully counter with it, there's a sound effect and you can RB to upgrade your sword
I won’t spoil it but when he said Tigrex is the Angriest monster, I thought to myself how innocent he still is. He doesn’t know of the Horrifying monsters to come.
Foresight slash is a move with massive I frames and can immediately combo into the final spirit combo strike giving you meter level. It can be done after most any longsword attack, so you can use it during the regular combo as well. It just requires an attack before it to be accessed. It’s about timing though, sometimes when you’re aggressively attack a non downed monster, you’ll want to space out your combo to be ready to foresight thru when it try’s to swing on you.
@@cloaker9 i got to Alatreon without ever even going for brute Tigrex. The basic version was so annoying to deal with that i decided an even stronger and more annoying one is not worth the stress
Bro i swear to god zanny is so good in this game he just need to practice I believe in him since he first Tried midir so probably a zanny constant would fight him in under 10 trys Imo
FINALLY, Zanny’s previous videos convinced me to get MHW world and now I am almost entirely done with the DLC. It’s been such a blast. I’ve been waiting so long to see him experience some of these fights and thought he might take another 3 year break with how long it had been lmao. Also word of advice, I’d recommend getting Health Boost 3. It helps so much with survivability (and you’ll definitely need it haha)
I hope he manages to grasp the foresight someday, it takes a while but knowing how it works, is a godsend, it will help him a lot if he plans to take on Alatreon and Fatty
As a Longsword player, here are some tips: Spirit combos, at least the first two slashes, can have one Y or Triangle imput between them to extend it. R2 + A or X is the Special Sheathe. The Special Sheathe benefits from critical draw and stuff. The Y/Triangle Special Draw and R2 Special Draw both can armor through incoming attacks, if pressed exactly as they hit, and both start filling the Spirit Meter. The Helmsplitter (or Destiny Star Slice as you have called it) also does this. Each color increases damage, but I think you know this. Y + B or Triangle + O is the Fade Slash, if you use this move, then start pressing R2 for the Spirit Slashes, you skip the first slash, meaning you can reposition and start gaining Spirit Gauge in a safer spot. Fade Slashes normally only go backwards, but can move to either side as well if you input it after another attack. B -> Y or O -> Triangle is endlessly loopable, and fast, though a bit low damage. And Foresight Slash, while it can only be input AFTER using any given normal attack, gives you complete immunity to a monster's attack while moving backwards. If the monster hits you while moving back, a sound will play, and assuming you hit the return slash, you can input another R2 to immediately raise the Spirit Gauge a level with another attack. If the last attack misses, you will not get a Spirit Gauge level up, but you will gain a full Spirit Meter. I should mention that you do need Spirit Meter to use the Foresight Slash, but not much. You can also start a Spirit Combo from the air if need be, and the Helmsplitter can be done in any direction on the way down, not just at the point you launched, if that makes any sense. I'm sure there's a lot I don't know, but that's what I've picked up in like... (checks Steam) 543 hours. Hope this helps a bit!
hes actually getting better, love to see it, now we just have to wait for him to realise the normal counter is much easier to pull off than the special sheathe one and it upgrades your spirit gauge lol, plus mixing different attacks together mid-combo like a spirit attack after the X + A swipe. he already finds the sword so fun, i hope he considers it even more so later on
Fatalis requires absolute perfection a mistake is a game over essentially so doing it in co op isn't any easier than solo unless person you play with is like a God at the game.
It´s possible. First Time i killed him i got harder carried than ever before in my Life. We were 3 Longswords and ... 1 Corner Horner. Full Widerange Fasteater Free Meal sitting on the Plattform and dooting his Hunting Horn. I was full Life the entire Fight.
I used to think Tigrex was so fast; then I beat Fatalis enough to get a full set and two weapons. Now, he's noticeably slow. You'll get good, zanny, it will just take some time.
I cannot wait for the day that zany does Alatreon and Fatalis but in the meantime I think he will love the furious Rajang for the funny monke and the raging brachydios for the cinema
Health boost 3, is the best defensive skill, it's basically mandatory in Master Rank. Also when running away from a monster and dodging you will perform a superman dive with seconds worth of i-frames.
i remember in monster hunter freedom unite one of the first quests was to obtain three popo tonuges. i had no idea what a popo was, so when the tigrex appeared i tought: here it is and tried to beat it. didn't end well...
If you manage to evade an attack via Foresight slash AND land the attack it automatically fills the gauge and you can immediately follow it up with a spirit slash
For practicing LS counters I find monsters with large telegraphs that you know the movesets of well work best, for me it was Rathian and Diablos to get the hang of it.
After the elden ring dlc, im probably going to play this. Gonna take a bit though, wajted to get varre mask so i gotta do his questline before i can fight mohg.
Don’t know if you’ll see this Danny but the set you had was good for the iai attacks. Also foresight slash is a great party but it’s an even better meter builder, if you land the party and land an rt counter you get a bar filled immediate
I have to say my dream game would be a Monster Hunter done by From Soft. I love the "to the Core" RPG factor of MH. Hunting Monsters and forge your Weapons/Armor out of them. Imagine now putting the Combat of Elden Ring in it (and maybe more of a darker tone overall). Perfection
The foresight slash has to be done after another attack and you have to have at least a little meter. It has I frames throughout the whole animation, and if the monster hits you and you parry it, you'll hear a little ding. Once you land the slash part of the attack, press rt and you'll level up your meter. Hope this helps, go forth on your training arc
To his credit, as a loyal player since 4U, I can confidently say that Rajang as well as the Pseudo wyverns are definitely the hardest in iceborne. Idk why, but they’re cracked in that expansion 😂
If you use foresight slash exactly before you get hit, you can press RT to do the last move of the spirit combo, which will get one level of the meter.
My guy needs to slap some health boost on there. Also you can do the foresight slash right after pretty much any attack. Special sheathe is also a great move to do after a Spirit Roundslash to increase gauge or do the counter.
Hey zannny quick tip for longsword acre you do the final round slash in your spirit combo instead of sheathing your weapon you can continue attack with special sheath’s ia slash oh yeah also try not to capture every monster you fight for the first time there are a lot of monster parts that you can’t get from capturing like part breaks anyways just play the game however you want to play have a great day
Zanny get the health necklace, health +3 gives you so much more health for iceborne content. Also use Max potion instead of the drinking one, heal way faster
How is it that the two people I've watched learn Longsword have more trouble with Foresight Slash than Iai Spirit Slash? There is such a low cost for using it, it's faster to use, is safer AND it gives the second fastest guage levels. Yet somehow, both Zanny and my hunting buddy acclimated to Iai Spirit Slash first. It doesn't make sense but i respect it. I have a few tips here as well, if you're willing to read, Zanny. Foresight Slash doesn't need to come after a Spirit combo attack. Pretty much any attack that chains works, as long as you have 10% spirit. B button poke into RT + B is a really quick combo you can use for set up. By working Iai Slash (draw double slash from Special Sheath) into your combos after gaining a meter, you can keep pressure on the monster really easily. It also has a few s but very few compared to other moves and can be pretty hard to time, even after using it a lot. Foresight Slash can be cancelled at halfway (in between pulling back and returning forward) by either using a Spirit Helmbreaker (Destiny Star Slice) or Special Sheath. Pretty helpful for repositioning or just evading for a quicker riposte. Final note, Foresight Slash has s on it, even without spirit gauge, though not as many and cannot grant a meter without. Helpful, especially with the previous note, to keep combos going even without the chance for a meter. Not sure if this comment is welcome or not as i recognise there's just a lot here. I still wanted to help out and share some things I picked up. If anyone finds them useful, then I'm glad
11:47 you did actually land the parry here. If you time any parry you will hear a chime/Bell ring to indicate a successful parry. The reason why it didnt have any extra visual effects is because you didnt have a spirit gauge level.
