In this segment of the video, the speaker discusses the weapon mechanics in Monster Hunter Stories 2. Weapons fall into categories: slash, blunt, and pierce, with two types per category. You can equip up to three weapons at a time, one from each category, to cover all your bases in combat. Different monsters are weak to specific attack types, indicated by icons above them. Each weapon type has unique skills and mechanics, such as drawing from the kinship gauge or requiring charge attacks. For example, the sword and shield utilize the kinship gauge for skills, while the greatsword requires charge attacks to access more powerful moves. It’s crucial to understand these weapon-specific mechanics to maximize effectiveness in combat.

In this segment of the video, it is explained that the charged move in the game requires one block and must be performed with only one block. If you build two charge blocks, you will need to use the two-block move. This is the rule for charging the meter. The video discusses block weapons like the hammer, which operates similarly to the great sword with a three-block charge meter. Winning head-to-head encounters fills the charge gauge, double attacks and clashes also filling it. Moving on to the hunting horn, it is simple to use with no additional gauges, primarily focused on buffing and supporting the team. The hunting horn’s attacks are straightforward, and it can heal like the sword and shield. Additionally, information about the bow and its interesting properties, such as different coatings and shots, is provided. The gun lance is also detailed as a weapon with a shell meter that can be filled in various ways, granting access to different skills based on the number of shells obtained.

In this part of the video, the key points discussed are using Wyvern Fire in Monster Hunter Rise, which consumes the entire kinship gauge but is very powerful. Unlike some other weapons, using Wyvern Fire doesn’t lock out previous skills, providing flexibility. It is described as having explosive power and being fun to use. The segment ends with a quick overview of the weapons and encourages viewers to stay tuned for more content. Additionally, there is a mention of checking out the hosts streaming on Twitch and joining their Discord for discussions.
