What is the best charge blade to be making , or is it diablo or nothing as everything i look up says diablo diablo diablo an the thing looks terrible lol cant see me using that long term

[lexilogo]

I personally use the Odogaron Charge Blade for white sharpness, but maybe that's just me?

Kjarr strongarm Ice is busted if you have it

It's either diablos or kulve RNG.

This, theres no other craftable CB better than the Diablos Tyrannis II, so if you want the best charge blades, even better than Diablos one, there's only the elemental Kjarr CB's

Mathematically Diablos Tyrannis II, Taroth Strongarm Horn and Kjarr strongarm Ice are the only three chargeblades in the game that matter and the second in the list is just a higher raw version of the first, here's why

Impact phial chargeblades are by far the most dominant type due to how Artillery and phial math works out making sharpness entirely irrelevant, with Artillery 3, Focus 3, Capacity boost, and a bit of attack(efr) you can spam out Super amped element discharges so fast and output so much damage that most tempered monsters don't last 2 minutes

That said Kjarr ice is so ridiculously over-tuned with elemental damage that it actually ends up better on ice weak monsters though power element builds entirely differently and somewhat values sharpness as a result.

(there's a monster hunter math video you can look up done by Jinx and Tuna to find better explanations but long story short Impact + artillery + cap boost is hella busted pre-iceborne)

The deviljho is a solid CB and looks very good, I would recommend it

Taroth strongarm horn has higher defense, not raw.

[mosspit]

Kjarr Strongarm King is good against Ancient Leshen.

For other builds including weapon choices https://mhwbuilds.net/charge-blade/ is nice site for builds. But yes Taroth Strongarm Horn and Diablo Tyrannis II is similar in terms of offensive power.

dante's devil sword is pretty cool cuz it's got elemental damage but has impact phials.

other than that, idk, look at the monster's weakness and plan accordingly. [shock!]

Using nergigante. High power, high sharpness, no negative affinity and high elder seal.

Charge blade got a heavy nerf in Iceborne. It was some of the most use weapon to some of the least use weapon in Iceborne.

It was supposed to actually require skill and stop unga ultra spam but people can't stop using the same brainless unga with Artillery 5 in Iceborne, because 99% of CB players are brainlet troglodytes. Sad that this weapon got ruined in World because of Capcom trying to appeal to the western fans.
