Gunlance Guide

Much like it’s cousin, the Lance, the Gunlance is a bastion of defense while having impressive range and damage. It’s basic attacks are a mix of stabs, sweeps and slams. Instead of a charging ability like the Lance, the Gunlance can fire off shotgun blasts. While not truly a ranged attack, these rounds ignore the toughness of the monster, allowing damage to be dealt to parts that otherwise couldn’t be touched.

• Difficulty: Moderate
• Role: DPS/Tank
• Mobility: Low
• Average Sharpness: Low

Basic Combos

• Forward +, , , will perform three thrusts in a row followed by a Shelling.
• Pressing + , , will perform a Rising Slash, followed by an Overhead Slash and finally Burst Fire. Burst Rire will fire off your remaining Shells and can be done any time you perform an Overhead Slash.

As you can see there are several things to remember here, and it will take you a bit to memorize them.

Special Attacks and Things of Interest

• + will do an upward attack and + will reload your Gunlance. Pressing + after any lance attack will “quick reload” your weapon.

• Holding and pressing will cause you to Backstep out of the way of an attack, and you can perform this up to 3x in a row.
• Pressing + + will perform Wyvern’s Fire which takes a few seconds to charge up, but then fires a short purple beam forward that explodes for great damage. Once you use this your Gunlance will overheat and you will need to wait for it to cooldown before firing again.

Final Tips

The Lance and Gunlancehave the strongest Block in the game, so players electing to go with this weapon should take advantage of that. While other players, even ones who use a Shield may Evade more than Block, with the Gunlance it’s the other way around. Practice Blocking and learn the capabilities of your Shield so you aren’t afraid to stand your ground. It is worth noting however, that the Gunlance does not have access to Counter Thrust or Power Guard and so cannot buff their Blocking like the Lance can.

The Gunlance will tear through Sharpness when firing, so be prepared for that because you will use the “Gun” portion often. Be sure to keep an eye on your Sharpness Gauge and use a Whetstone when you need to.

You can fire your Gunlance while airborne, so be sure to keep that in mind because you can combo it into some wicked attacks.

Lastly, as mentioned above, the rounds fired from the Gunlance pierces the resistances of the monster you are fighting and so deal excellent damage and are a great way to break parts or hit places that generally are well protected. Learning what places these are on monsters will help improve your efficiency with this weapon greatly.
