Stay the hell away from me dual-blade users!
I have no idea how long-sword got the reputation as being the worst multiplayer weapon, dualblades will easily stun lock 3 people and make them deal nearly 0 damage the entire fight. If you are dualblades you have an obligation to run around the monster and hit its back every time it falls over, let other people hit its feet/tail/head.

Not that hard to add Flinch free 1 to your build chief.

Oh, so I have to give up my Vit 1, rather than Dual-blade tard learn how to space out and not home in on me. It is them who is wrong, not I.

Huh. I don't know why you see the need of trading vitality for Flinch free. What the hell are you running on your set?

Not to mention, you're using a level 1 slot deco on a 3 slot? Now i am even more curious.

Use https://www.nexusmods.com/monsterhunterworld/mods/5036 and forget that co-op flinch is even a thing.

Because cheating a Quality of Life skill in the game is definitely the better choice.

That is literally the point of it, why waste a slot of something that shouldn't even be a part of the game. Knocking players around for benefits or fun should be a part of the game but getting interrupted by basic attacks is stupid. I only recommend flinch 1 part of the mod for QoL in Co-Op but I will agree that using the mod for the flinch 3 part is definitely cheating.

I don't even understand the complain. If monster is down and you sns you should be doing perfect rush which can't be flinched out of, and if you're hitting low parts (which are literally the only parts dual blade users can hit) when your weapon has much higher range, that's more your fault than theirs tbh.

Every other weapon can't be flinched out of during their combos so once again, I don't understand.
Longsword can at least straight up launch you up and it does interrupt even GS combos.

The only times I ever get flinched by dual blades is if for some reason I am trapped on the same side they are when the monster is down, and at that point I just go wound other parts while they slash away. It's not a speedrun lol.

You clearly never played 'every other weapon'...

Not sure if sarcasm, but assuming that comment is serious...
If you are THAT dependent on having 15 extra health, it means one of two things:

1) You're not healing when you should be and/or you are being absolutely reckless during hunts. Both are faults of your own.
2) There is something incredibly WRONG with your build (i.e. needing to upgrade armor, having better armor in general, etc). This is also your own fault.

1) I can name VERY few monsters where you can effectively DB (or even SnS) to the back: Anjanath. Great Jagras, Great Girros, and MAYBE Odogaron. On most monsters, you're hits will just deflect or deal or obscenely low amounts of damage. With Rath, Diablos, and Nerg, there are SMALL weakpoints in their wings but the hit box is absolute garbage for such short range strike since the monters are flailing about; the only other conceivable area for DB or SnS is the tail, but again with the flailing...

2) I must have missed the memo that stated you are OBLIGATED to hit certain parts with certain weapons... Last I checked, I was free to play as I want.

So for the love of all things good, just slot in a Brace jewel.

As I gunner I don't brun brace, hits that's because I can keep my distance, and if I do get flinched, I don't blame the other person, if you don't run flinch free and get flinched, that's the risk you took :)

That being said, I have been caught next to a dual blade user before, and my goodness it took a sec to escape xD

Just slot flinch free and stop whining.

You're a longsword user. You deserve the flinches if you don't slot it.

DB has better dps than you.

You go to the back, or tenderize body parts to make yourself mildly useful as you stare in amazement as the massive damage master weapon carries you through the SOS. You're welcome btw.
