I have always been a fan of lances ever since I first played Final Fantasy Tactics and was able to attack opponents 2 spaces away. Now in Monster Hunter Lances were the most powerful weapons in the game, now while this might sound like an opinion its not� They did more damage, they were quick, and everything else that is good about death. Now in Freedom Lances were �nerfed� (weakened) and now they have been balanced out to equal the other weapons, this does not however make them bad weapons in fact by making them weaker it just means that you can use them more :). Now in this guide I will be showing you many things such as how to use lances, the different lances in the game, and which wyverns they are affective against. (RW)--------------------Reasons Why-------------- I have created this guide for a number of reasons: 1) I'm tired of people constantly dying whilst using my beautiful lances. 2) I believe that lances are often misused and while this won�t end it I think it can only help� 3) Lances are good and I like talking about them�yeah I know. (WUL)----------------Why Use Lances------------- Now even though lances have been weakened and can no longer Head Lock there are still numerous advantages to using them. Such as there high attack and element combinations, or there high speed attacks and great ability to block, attack while blocking, and moving while walking.

(SYL)----------Lancing Styles--------------- I have a couple different styles that I would like to show you, then I will tell you a few strategies, whats the difference? well styles are different ways of using lance while strategies are how to apply these styles to fight wyrvens. OK here are the styles: 1) Hit And Run 2) Suicide Tank 3) Cutter / Breaker 4) Cautious Tank 5) Tripper And here are the explanations and requirements for the different styles. ------------------------Hit And Run--------------------- Requirements: Stamina, bring Well Done Steaks. This strategy is pretty self explanatory, hit the wyrven then before it can attack, run away. Wait for an oppurtunity and repeat. The stamina is of course for running from the wyvern. ------------------------Suicide Tank-------------------- Requirements: Strong Armour, Strong Lance, Alot of Potions. This is one of the funnest strategies. Its simply this, hit the wyverns weakest point again and again and dont worry about getting hit, gaurd if you can but c'mon thats what the armour and health is for, also eat Royal Cheese and Blessed Wine for the Health and Stamina Boost. ------------------------Cutter / Breaker---------------- Requirements: Sharp Lance w/ good attack, Stamina, bring Steaks. This is basically for online play but it can be utilized offline of course. Put simply you break the stuff, cut the tail, and whatever the situation might call for. Now while Guns of course are required for being the Breaker on Lao, Lance are good for just about anything else. ------------------------Cautious Tank------------------- Requirements: Strong Lance, Stamina (Power or Mega Juice), good blocking ability and/or protection Peircing, Anti Roar is a good skill to have. Now while the peircing is of course optional this is different from the regular / suicide tanker in 2 ways. 1) You will not be taking as many hits but 2) You won't be doing as much damage... take your pick. Now in this style you have to damage the weak points of the wyvern however you must also be wary of approaching attacks, i usually play this role as I perfer weak armour with good skills than strong armour with garbage skills. ------------------------Tripper------------------------- Requirements: Strong, Sharp Lance with good blocking abilities, Anti Roar is a bonus. This one can be the difference between a 25 minute Diablos and a 10 minutes Diablos. You use the /\ attack to hit the legs. Continue to hit the legs even once tripped. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (STG)-------------------Strategies---------------------- 1st in this section I will tell you which styles work well on whcih wyverns and then some little tips for each wyvern. 1-------------Hit and Run-------------- Works Well On: Rathalos Rathian Gravios Basarios Yian Kut Ku Diablos Monoblos Khezu 2-------------Suicide Tank------------- Works Well One: Rathalos Rathian Basarios Khezu 3-------------Cutter / Breaker--------- Works Well On: Everything But: Khezu Plesioth Cephadrome Yian Kut-Ku Because they have nothing to break. 4-------------Cautios Tank------------- Works Well On: Rathalos Basarios Khezu Rathian Gravios Gypceros 5-------------Tripper------------------ Works Well On: Rathian Diablos Monoblos (offline only) Khezu Plesioth Yian kut-Ku ------------------------TIPS---------------------------- ----All----Tips-----Are-----For---lances---- --------------------Yian Kut-Ku -Its weak at the wings, i can kill an offline Kut Ku in 5 hits to the wing with a Black Tempest, use it. -It trips easily, trip it and hit the tail, another weak point. --------------------Rathalos -Its weak point is the head, and its very weak vs. dragon so the Dragon Lances are good but anything will work, hitting the head is key to a quick battle. -It doesn't trip as easily as its female counterpart, dont spend time hitting the feet focus instead on breaking: Both Wings, Tail, and Face Plate. --------------------Rathian -Its weak point is the head, and its very weak vs. dragon so the Dragon Lances are good but anything will work, hitting the head is key to a quick battle. -It, unlike Rathalos, trips fairly easily, after its head and wings are busted and the tail is cut, knock it down. --------------------Gypceros -Its weak point is the tail, and Fire. Combine them both for a quick kill. -Its crystal can be broke, once gone it can't use its flash attack. --------------------Plesioth -Its stomach is the weak point, and Thunder and Fire are very effective, however because the only thunder lance... sucks, dont use it focus on raw attack or Fire instead. -It Trips very easily however doesnt remain down for long, trip it anyway than charge at it { /\ + ( ) }. --------------------Cephadrome -Its Tail is its weak point , and Fire/ Thunder are also good, but because there is no real good thunder lance, raw attack and Fire are great. -Its neck is also weak, attacking this is a great way to kill quickly. --------------------Monoblos -Break the horn, once its gone charging attacks do less damage. -Its weak point is at the beginning of the tail, water is its weak element. -Tripping it, combined with hitting the beginning of the tail is a great way to kill quickly. --------------------Diablos -Break the horns, once their gone charging attacks do less damage. -Its weak point is at the beginning of the tail, water is its weak element. -Tripping it, combined with hitting the beginning of the tail is a great way to kill quickly. --------------------Khezu -Its weak point is the neck, and its weak Vs. Fire. _It trips INCREDIBLY easily, trip it and while its tripped continu to hit the feet. Rinse and Repeat and you have 1 dead Khezu. --------------------Gravios -Once both chest plate are broken that is its weak point, however that may take a while. Dragon is the best element to bring. -Don't flash it unless you have anti-roar armor as it roars alot while flashed. --------------------Basarios -Its tail can be broken even though its just the very tip, also its chest plate can be shattered. -Don't flash it unless you have anti-roar armor as it roars alot while flashed.
