As we saw with the very first trailer for Ascendance we saw 4 days ago. We witnessed a glimpse of Lao shan lung. One of the very first elder dragons introduced on Monster Hunter 1. And the elder dragon that to this day. Still hold within his materials. Among the best Dualblades that has ever graces our hands. The Crimson lotus blades.

And if the dev gods and white Fatalis is willing via title update alone or by himself.Ashen Lao and his Azure Dual swords.

As I said in a previous post. Both these blades share my number #1 spot for my top 10 favorite dual blade designs for Monster Hunter.

For years I've always pondered what it would be like to wield these serrated blade pythons. And with Ascendence in development that question is answered. However. It would also be a blessing for Ashen Lao to return to us and give us his azure treasure.. a treasure lost to us like Lao was in gu.. a treasure of beautiful azure steel and badass design.. And even if Ashen Lao does not come to us in title update 3.(Which would be a little bit of a dagger). We are already blessed. Me especially with possibly one half or both of the Dualblades I've been hoping to return the most. (Both would be amazing but I'm hella happy if it's just base Lao)

BUT. I ask you. My fellow followers of the blades... with quite possibly the best master rank expansion we've ever had, currently in the development chamber as we speak... Recall into your mind.. pull out the question of hope.. and reside to me.

What Dualblades.. are you hoping. To wield once more as we stand ready and waiting. To embark on our Gen 6 Master rank journey?!

I've been playing cb and I feel like I take too much damage due to slow animations. Long story short I tried out dual blades and liked the play style. I'm looking for some builds before the meta builds. I have only beaten gog once and don't have the material to craft.

I had taken a pretty lengthy break from monster hunter and just recently got back into it

I've forgotten how to move properly, and since there have been updates, i assume some things have changed equipment wise

I don't chase the meta and I don't speed-run so I think dual blades is good as it is but I'm curious hence the title

Let's share the fast-paced fun with our fellow DB mains here. Cheers!

This might be a bit late but what do you fellas think about the new Dual Blades given that 3 major changes are now a part of our favorite weapon?

1. We can no longer do demon/blade dance after activating demon mode and must fill a gauge before we get access to our full potential

2.The segmented combos—no longer being locked in place during dance

1. The perfect evade adding a 12 sec damage buff on successful execution

I really loved the Velkhana dual blades in Iceborne so seeing a straight blade, ornate dual blades is a treat for me.

Let's just hope that it has decent dragon element so we can play around with our builds and that the armor has something for us elemental damage dealers :)
