Everyone here has turned to the sli----dark side. ='(

SuperNerd Wrote:Despite having the armor combination generator, I am having trouble coming up with a good G-Rank armor combination set for my friend. He's a Longsword user, and I know absolutely nothing about the weapon. I tried it once and just absolutely hated it. So I guess I'm just here questioning: what skills are best for a Longsword user who is already at G-Rank and what would be a good armor combination for those skills?

Anyways... I gotta say, G-Rank Nargacuga is quite intimidating. His tail smash does sooooooooooooo much damage. Also fought the Green subspecies who for the most part was pretty much the same, but it did take me by surprise when his tail thorns instantly stunned me. Yikes. As soon as Zinogre gives me a damn Skymerald, I'll upgrade my THUNDER Dual Blades and take on his Stygian counterpart.

I generally do not use Longsword myself, but from experience in FU/FO with them, I can say that it doesn't really have many skills that are special for it that you wouldn't want to do without.

It can make use of Focus, but I don't really see the point in that. There's no real need to fill up the spirit bar 20% quicker.

I would say go with the generics, Sharp+1, maybe Razor Sharp, maybe Awaken if necessary for a good LS, Evasion, AU/CE, etc. Don't bother with the unsheathe boosts (Critical Draw and Punishing Draw) because there's no point there, and quick sheathing isn't really that big of a deal for most blader weapons in my opinion.

Green Narga isn't very different from regular. He basically just does most things twice in a row instead of once, including (but not limited to) the tail smash, tail swipe, and leaping. Other than that he's pretty pointless for a monster.

I hear Lucent Narga is different, but I haven't gotten to him yet, probably HR50 req.
