Slashing, piercing, and trapping monsters is what hunters should be doing in Monster Hunter Wilds. To use these principles, there are various weapons that hunters can use in the game. One of which is the Long Sword featured in the latest MH Wilds trailer.
Monster Hunter Wilds Long Sword Weapon Overview
The Long Sword is a weapon that excels at swift movements and combos. Timing and accuracy will be the key to using this fine weapon as it can counter incoming attacks. Landing attacks on monsters will raise the level of the Spirit Gauge. Once the gauge becomes red, some of your attacks will be strengthened especially during Focus Mode as the damage calculation will be tripled upon the weaknesses.
Monster Hunter Wilds is expected to launch in 2025 for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (via Steam). For more info about the game, check out their main website.
