'Best' charge blade

[ZinxLinkk]

What charge blade is the best and why?

[Seamus]

More or less a tie between the diablos charge blade and the kulve variation of it. Because of pure damage output.

[MegaHunts]

From my opinion it would be Dante's sword. the amount of Blue sharp is quite good with thunder element.

I have a few Kulve charge blades, you happen to know the name of the variation you are referring to? Thanks.

Oh, ok. Not the one I have although I have the 'Taroth Strongarm Water' would switching to the diablos one be better or would sticking with the Taroth Strongarm Water be more effective?

Diablos or Taroth Horn (they're basically the same weapon)
because impact phials mainly scale off the weapon base raw and get irrelevant boost from raw derived from skills, so Diablos will beat cleanly every other impact CB in terms of damage output.

Water is only good against Teo and Uragaan. Blos is better against every other monster until we get the Kjarr weapons.
P.S. Horn is a rarity 7 weapon, and it's literally Diablos Tyrannis with a +10 def bonus.

Water is an elemental charge blade that has a niche in some fights, but for a general-use weapon Impact phial charge blades are the best option and the Diablos/Horn are the strongest impact phial charge blades in the game. The only difference between the Diablos and the Horn is that Horn has slightly more defense. They are basically the same weapon otherwise.

Ok, thanks for the feedback. I'll make my way to the diablos CB's then :)
