Line em up and keep on swinging in Monster Hunter: World but like any other fine RPG, always make sure your build is in order, dishing out effective damage as well as giving an appropriate defense. These builds will keep you alive and as always are also guiding templates to build toward for players lacking certain expensive gems. MHW is just too full of variety to have a one build does it all.

5. Counter Fatalis Charge Blade Build
Have you been burnt to smithereens and punished like a red headed step child by the fire breathing spazzing black dragon? Monster Hunter: World’s final dragon did not come onto the scene timid or bashful but breathing fire and charging after you, typically trampling you even when you thought you successfully evaded it.. (Must hang out with Rathalos) This is a great anti-Fatalis build that will keep you alive but still keep you dishing out high DPS with it’s great raw attack damage.

4. Savage Axe Swing2Win Lightbreak Charge Blade Build
2nd Build
Some people prefer the Savage Axe mode over the Sword when using the Charge Blade. One appeal is the Savage Axe attacks unleashing high charged elemental/status energy that is filled and stored in phial’s from Sword attacks and releases the energy damage from Axe mode combat. Yea it's a charge up and release kinda thing. Nothing wrong with that everybody it’s totally natural. And with the Lightbreak Charge Blade, Teostra Technique and Brachydios Essence this build just can’t go wrong.

3. Savage Axe DPS Build True Fatalis Charger
3rd Build
Like the Savage Axe build before, this build also encourages Savage Axe mode over the Sword but with no SAED attacks. The armor and weapon is higher ranked and the elemental discharge attacks are strong but the raw attack damage from the Axe is just as strong if not stronger and takes less work to operate than keeping up with Monster Hunter: World’s extensive phial charging combat energy dispensing system or SAED attacks.. Just switch to Axe mode and keep on swinging that beautiful axe like 16th President Abraham Lincoln chopping wood in the forest, or I don’t know maybe killing vampires?
