Youtuber that shows combos using keyboard controls?
As I'm still relatively new to the Monster Hunter genre and the whole combo fighting thing in general, I need to check out Youtube videos to help me out with the combos if I try a different weapon.

The issue I run into is that I'm unable to find tutorial videos that showcase the game via keyboard and mouse controls and trying to translate the controller buttons to keyboard each time seems like it would become a bit of a pain.

Does anyone know of a Youtuber that has decent weapon tutorials that uses keyboard and mouse?

is better for you to change your hotkey first, i was confuse by it at first too, so i create my own hotkey set, and then go to training area.

Thanks, but that is not what I was looking for.

Aside from that, I would like to say that because MHW doesn't use too many buttons it's usually pretty easy to translate: Triangle/Y is M1 by default, Circle/B is M2 by default, and the right trigger is Ctrl by default.

That looks exactly what I was looking for, cheers!

EDIT: Well looking at his videos, they seem to be more about advanced moves/builds. Was hoping for some basics and basic combos, etc.

I think what you're talking about is most Youtubers that make high quality tutorials mostly use controller so that means the the prompts will be from PS4 or Xbox One Controller. And since you don't have a controller it'll take a longer time for you to understand. I guess you have no choice but to get a controller if you're watching someone like" Arekkz Gaming".

Hmm, for me Mouse Button 4 is the special action by default. But that does seem pretty simple, it will just take me a while to get used to as I don't really console game.

Yeah, it does seem that the higher quality tutorials show/use controller prompts. I'm a PC gamer and as such I don't use a controller, I do own a PS4, but that doesn't get played, it was mostly to try the PS4 exclusive titles or the odd console exclusive like RDR2 which of course came to PC so I immediately jumped to buying it on PC.

I can adapt rather easily when it comes to games and their keybinds, the difficulty for this game would be the translating the console inputs to PC when it comes to the videos, but like Iexilogo pointed out, they seem rather simple as it is generally just the 3 buttons.

Like Roosxkie mentioned, the Youtuber "Arekkz Gaming" has some basic weapon tutorials that show of course, the basics, what each weapon does, their combos, etc.

I would like that, but pretty much just showing PC keybinds instead of controller inputs.

Oh crud, I forgot that the Iceborne update changed a few of the default inputs and I changed most of them back personally, so I forgot. Sorry, my bad.

I have yet to pick up Iceborne, but a couple of mates I am playing with have it and are using the Clutch Claw, it looks pretty badass. I may have to pick it up soon lol.

I tried looking at them, but it's not the keybindings that throw me, it's just the combos. I don't really play games that have various combos, like fighting games.

Like I say, I adapt well to default keybinds in games and rarely need to change them. I'll just have to bare with the current weapon guide videos and just get used to translating the controller buttons to keybinds.

Thanks anyway!
