Is it me or is everyone playing Lancer wrong?

[Raingnyu]

I say this because shouldn't Lancers be riding their trusted bird while doing a lance charge? Also shouldn't Lancers move faster on their birds than anyone else and have more power in our Strikes when riding our bird when doing this bird chase charged attack? Shouldn't we be more powerful when on our birds?

[Raingnyu]

Also is their an suggestions section for recommendations?

Also is their an item (Jewel) that improves damage when riding your bird and using the charge attack option?

[Raingnyu]

Wow.....nothing.

Its unclear if the Seikret is just a gimmick, cause they had the dog in rise, but you didn't swing your weapons while riding the Canyne.

The devs also nerfed the ammount of damage you do when riding the bird, so I dont think they intend for you to fight mounted the whole hunt.

However you are free to play however you like.

There's not too much of a point to fight mounted, especially after the big nerf it got.

[Raingnyu]

Shouldn't lancers have a jousting option?

I am new to the game, didn't know about the nerf.

Capcom is a Japanese company. The lance in a lot of Japanese media; games, anime, manga, etc. are not mounted weapons. They're big, cool, heavy weapons that do a lot of damage.

Monster hunter has never really been about mounted combat (and honestly, in this entry I feel that it’s a missed opportunity).

And technically speaking, the guns should be the most effective options in the game, with both lance variants coming in third (just after the bow). All allow for maximum engagement reach (which, honestly I would want irl against these things)

I have noticed that while mounted that I can keep my lance extended until my stamina runs out while mount and can do continues damage while running through my target monster.

Can other weapon do that? Not talking about the single swing. But like a real jousting movements.

On Xbox controller you hold down both y and right bump to do the continuous jousting option until your stamina runs out.

Only other weapon you can do that with is the gunlance.

Hmmm I maybe on to something

[Nolo Contendere]

again, there's better ways to play those.

that IS a handy way to pursue or open up a fight. but the better way to use almost any of the weapons is on foot.

Ironically, the best weapons to use mounted are the bowguns (because you don't lose access to half most of your moveset when mounted).

I'm honestly amazed no mods have been made to fix the mount damage nerf yet.
I tried myself, but I couldn't find any files that correspond to it. I suspect it would have to be fixed via lua script.
