Oh, you're using THAT weapon?. . .
Who cares? This is Monster Hunter. You shouldn't worry about what other people use, what your friends use. Use what you want to use.
I'm a long time MH vet and let me tell I have seen it all. From Hunting Horn's breakdance blowup in Rise to Frontier destroying balance with the Magnet Spike, to Striker Lance being an absolute power house.
Trust me. Every weapon has its glow up. Has its builds. Has its users. I don't care what you use, let's use the same weapons. Let's use different weapons. The only thing that should matter is the monsters in this game. I love the community but we have to stop gate keeping people because of the weapons they use. This is the most balanced we have had in quite some time each weapon is so fun now. Everything contributes, every bit of damage, every distraction. We are here to hunt big Monsters. So let's stop complaining, stop worrying. Stop
The guild authorizes you to hunt. So hunt.
Update: Was NOT expecting this to blow up thank yall so much!
