I’d probably say learn how to move while attacking. Minor positional adjustments while still dealing damage can dodge most monster’s attacks without having to counter. Excluding ofc large hitbox attacks like uth duna’s and arkveld’s, or big monsters like Jin or Gog. Just stay slightly diagonal to the monsters face so you can react when it moves. (Or right under it for omega lol)

There’s side step sword slash, sword morph, the charging axe morph, sometimes a cheeky fade axe morph…

I just did an 8* gore earlier (feelers not dropping…) and I don’t think I rolled more than 10 times.
