Going Over The Sunbreak Title Update 5 Weapon Adjustments

Get Ready for the Rise of Shakuru Magala and More!

Capcom has just dropped the highly anticipated trailer for the Sunbreak title update 5, and let me tell you, it's got me buzzing with excitement! This update brings us the fearsome Shakuru Magala and a mysterious new monster called Matson. But before we dive into the details, I must apologize for any incoherent rambling that might follow. You see, I'm currently battling a pollen allergy that has me more alert than a Tyranitar in a close combat. But fear not, my friends, for I am here to bring you all the juicy information about the patch notes and weapon balances. Let's dive in!

A Buff Bonanza for Great Swords and Long Swords

Let's start off by taking a look at the buffs for some of our favorite weapons. The great sword enthusiasts will be pleased to know that the falling slash, vortex slash, writing slash, and true surge combo have all received an increase in power and elemental correction value. Not only that, but the amount of damage taken while charging the great sword has been reduced. Talk about a power boost!

But wait, there's more! Long sword users, rejoice! The circle that spawns when using the Harvest Moon move has had its radius increased. And here's the best part: you no longer need to sheathe your weapon to cancel the move. The circle will remain, allowing you to continue your onslaught without any interruptions. And if that wasn't enough, the cooldown time has been decreased, and the display position of the circle has been raised. It's a whole buffet of buffs for long sword aficionados!

Dual Blades and Gunlance Get Some Love Too

Now, let's turn our attention to the dual blades and gunlance. Dual blade users will be thrilled to know that the demon fury rush and lunging strong moves have received an increase in elemental correction. And for those who actually use the dual blade side, the effect duration has been extended. It's time to unleash your inner dual blade master!

As for the gunlance users, rejoice! The power of the gunlance's wide shelling has been increased, and the elemental correction value for the hammer's charged big bang and finisher moves has been boosted. It's time to bring the boom with your gunlance and hammer combos!

Hunting Horns and Insect Glaives Get Some Much-Needed Enhancements

But wait, there's more! Hunting horn players, your prayers have been answered. The effect duration of hunting horn songs has been adjusted to last longer. Finally, you can keep those sweet melodies playing without interruption. And to top it off, a damage reduction effect has been added to the hunting horn's sonic barrier. It's time to protect yourself and your teammates like never before!

And for all you insect glaive enthusiasts out there, fear not! The attack scaling has been adjusted to increase when retrieving all three colors of the extract. It's time to unleash the full potential of your insect glaive and soar through the skies with style!

Bug Fixes Galore and Some Fun Surprises

Now, let's talk about bug fixes. Capcom has been hard at work addressing various bugs and issues in the game. From fixing the occasional weapon combo mishap to preventing buddies from being displayed inappropriately, they've got you covered. And they didn't stop there! They even made sure that some headgear remains on your character during certain actions. It's the little details that make a big difference!

But I know what you're thinking, did they fix the bug that caused save data loss? Well, I'm not entirely sure, but let's hope they have. After all, losing progress is a hunter's worst nightmare!

Conclusion: The Hype is Real!

In conclusion, the Sunbreak title update 5 is shaping up to be an exciting one. With the introduction of new monsters, powerful buffs for various weapons, and a plethora of bug fixes, there's plenty to be excited about. So, dust off your armor, sharpen your weapons, and get ready to embark on a thrilling new adventure in the world of Monster Hunter Rise. And remember, stay safe out there, drink your water, and never underestimate the power of a good cooked meal (just not from a poisonous monster like Plessy off!). Happy hunting, my fellow hunters!
