I think this is my favorite build so far, great in both offense and defense, the only thing that I'd like better is a way to get rid of Resentment and switch it with burst 5, but unfortunately it seems impossible without losing utility like earplugs or elemental absorption. What do you think?

This is my build overall, the only thing I’m thinking of changing is the shield/ironwall deco for attack boost 3, along with changing the talisman when I get attack boost 1, load shells 2, 1 weapon slot, 2 armor slot on one talisman, which I think I’ve seen somewhere or maybe I dreamt it. Anything else I could change for more damage?

*This build gets me to around 360 raw in the training area when all skills are active, does anyone know a reasonable limit for raw with purely weapon and skills, no item or hh buffs?

Im going for a survivability/superheal gunlance build. Its been pretty effective so far! im just not sure what to do with the level 2 decoration slots, and i guess my 1 level of divine blessing!

No im not removing stun resistance, I refuse to eat an attack, get stunned, and get carted!

Someone responded on to my request on a "Endgame Armor for GL Normal Shot " and this is what I was given.

Head- G.Ebony Helm B (Beta) Chest/Arms/Legs- Udra Y (Gamma) Waist- Gog A (Alpha)

With all decorations slotted in it gets: Lv5 Resentment, Lv5 Agitator, Lv5 Burst, Lv3 Counter Strike, Lv3 Speed Eating (Naturally there not slotted in for), Lv2 Earplugs, Lv1 Peak Performance

There's 4 Lv1 and 1 Lv2 Deco slots, I ended up using the Lv1 slots for Divine Protection and Def Boost and the remaining Lv2 for Lv1 Evade Extender.

Set Bonus skill: Nu Udra's Mutiny- Bad Blood 1, Ebony Odogaron's Power- Burst Boost 1, Lord's Soul- Guts

The user mentioned since I plan to Full Burst most of the time don't bother adding in Focus Lv3, use it for Load Shells and Artillery and or Attack Boost. Thoughts?

So, the multi wyrmstake combo is definitely the bread and butter of the gunlance but you need a proper opening to run the full combo, especially if you do a quick wyvernfire after that second auger, so while you're waiting for that opening hows the best way to contribute to the monster takedown?

Still figuring it out but i love it so far

Was curious if anyone has messed around with protein fiend (xu wu set bonus) with gogmazios chest. +15 raw seems pretty significant (I know burst is a strong skill on its own but ebony secret gives +3 at 2 piece and the additional uptime seems more incidental than a major reason for speccing into it). It could be time blindness in hunts but, anecdotally, 3 minutes seems a long enough duration that monsters are changing zones or I’m healing anyways.

I think the biggest downside I see, besides resource management, is being forced into adrenaline rush over something like agitator, counterstrike, or resentment, but the slots seem pretty good and both the uptime and raw on adrenaline rush seem comparable to counterstrike.

Hey yall i tried gunlance out for the first time last night and I fell in love with the feel. I normally play pretty aggressive sns. Im not sure with whats good skill and build wise with gunlance but I really enjoy the triangle combo into the burst(?) Multiburst finisher. Weaving in shelling shots here and there and popping a wyvren blast when the monster is not moving.

My current weapon is an artian blast with wide and slightly strong shelling. Ive got a master touch gem, a 3guard/1handicraft gem, and I think its called guard up(?) Lv3 gem on it. The skill that makes you survive unguardable attacks.

I’m trying to go for A rank on the nu udra time attack and I’m consistently getting around 20-22 minutes. Would anybody be willing to help me out? Thank you fellow gunlancers!

Edit: sorry the gog weapon has zoh Shias pulse on it

What is the current meta for the gunlance for Monster Hunter now. I really never paid much attention to it until I started reading posts on the gun lance.

I'm just starting to use GL and the first thing I want is a really strong meta set. I found this one but I don't know if there's anything better.

Does the actual blast dash part of RBD have any i-frames, or just the shell loading/prep part? I’m kind of having a hard time figuring it out.

Since shelling does fire damage, will any boosts to elemental/fire attack increase its damage, or is that dependent on the gunlance’s element itself?

Hey guys, I'm currently trying to get back into monster Hunter wilds with the summer event, I haven't played since probably 4 months, I haven't kept up with the patches or anything and was wondering what builds are good, what type of gun lance is the strongest in the current game, ect. I have a bunch of stuff including every gun lance you can craft from the monster(I just got some Gog upgraded ones the other night).

So any builds, tips or ideas would be very helpful thanks!

I only use max level shelling because for me that's the only way to play gunlance. So my go to gunlance are:

- star crossed centaurus (nakarkos) for normal shelling

- sedition buster (seregios) for long shelling

- Crunchy cornpopper for wide

The star crossed centaurus and sedition buster are really nice because they don't need sharpness skills. All of them basically don't need it which is nice because I can slot in wex and CB in tandem with artillery and load up. The trade off is I notice those weapons have relatively low attack point. The price I gotta pay

Currently I'm rocking sedition buster because according to some infographic from this subreddit it has the best rapid valor and has burst fire with the same strength as other normal 5 gunlance. Is it true though? The infographics has several version and I'm not entirely sure which is the latest
