Didn't see it mentioned so forgive me if it's common knowledge, but you can do Reckoning/Roundslash immediately after your big Sacred Sheathe hit to build meter back up immediately. Just press ZR immediately after! He showcased using it after the Sacred Counter too but I figured in case anyone missed it, you can use ZR right after the successful counter to build levels.

Thank you so much Nero! I appreciate your words.

I never realized how much of a game changer that move is. You also get two counter opportunities, one when you start the sheathe and another when you release it. That's so awesome

Thx for this guide sir. I’ve been wanting to master sacred sheath. I’ve always just used it as a damage move instead of the counter. I’ll practice this. Thx for the help

Thank you so much i couldn't figure it out great guide

I don't quite remember if you mentioned it in the video, but releasing ZR (or respective button) for the counter actually doesn't consume the gauge as if you were to just get hit while sheathing and not letting go Edit: nvm, you explained that literally 5 seconds after where I paused lmao

Thank you DG I really needed this tutorial cause I didn't know what the hell to do with that skill lol!

I’ve strictly been using SSC (Sacred sheath combo) for my entire playthrough of the game so I could get used to it and I love the huge damage numbers but I’ve been finding myself swapping back to helm splitter lai slash build for certain monsters bc on some fights it feels like I need to get damage in much quicker bc they’re extremely aggro like rajang. But because of the switch scrolls I can run the helm splitter build and the SSC build now and it feels great

Honestly the best thing that ever happened in sunbreak, it almost makes me stick with Longsword for the whole playthrough (but around 70 MR i was kinda bored so i did make Switch Axe and learn their moves) The thing with sacred sheath is it provide a fast way to counter (Other than serene pose which takes 2 wirebug). And even if you miss the timing, as long as you get hit before sheathing you'll be safe. Special sheath is also good, however even with Quick sheath armor skills, it can be pretty late sometimes. It takes a proper planning for it to work.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! After watching your tech, I finally got it. My education begins anew again today!

Thanks! This is my preferred playstyle now, though I'm still working out the kinks of positioning and timing. Already love not having to wait around for wirebugs for Helm splitter.

Just started to play MHR and I remember seeing you play LS for world and this. Funny how almost a year later for me your video pops up when I need a solid explanation for sacred Sheath cuz I don’t get it hopefully after this video I will

"No point in learning without appreciation". Good life advice for me.

I watch a lot of MH content, but i learn best from your videos. Big love homie

Additionally, if you do get hit while sheathing and dropped a gauge, if you still have a good amount of charge, you can immediately use spirit slash to get it back up, since you didn't get hit

Thank you so so much God bless you

The tip you mentioned about the whetstone not filling your gauge, try using great whetfish. It's the supped up whetstone that you get from sending the meowsenaries for the sparkly fish icons.

I play multiplayer, so over half the time the monster isn't targeting me, and I'm garbage at counters anyway. I just Sakura Slash up to Red and unload it with the Sacred Combo if I have an opening. It's a great damage option even if you never use the counter.

That makes that better then helm breaker

I need to remember with this move that the animation has hyper armor (can't be knocked back when using it when a monster attacks). You can be very aggressive with this move and you kind of have to be. My only issue I have with it that I am still trying to learn is the counter with it. It get it sometimes where I gain a level, but most of the time I get the counter off I lose one level. I am lost on the timing needed to gain a level.

what armor are you using? looks nice

When you showcase damage you should keep your sharpness at full so people can see what it will be at the weapon's highest damage point. Thanks for the awesome video 👍

Yes, this is the case with all hyper armor - which is how you run into situations like getting one shot after successfully using your foresight slash by bazelgeuse.

What is the build used for this? Armor set wise for skills?? Anyone help please

how to do the sacred reckoning combo? (keyboard)

I think the optimal playstyle will be a mix between helmsplitter/special sheathe and sakura slash/sacred sheathe. Helmsplitter is weaker but faster and accurate for those tiny openings. It got nerfed, but it’s still your best instant burst option by far. The nerf was kinda big tho. Sacred sheathe is for big openings and big boy damage. Just the last hit itself is not as strong as helmsplitter (around 20% weaker). You need at least two hits of the three hits to surpass helmsplitter damage.

@SinginCousins

2 жыл бұрын

These are my thoughts exactly, helm splitter/special sheath even with the nerfs still feels good to use bc of its speed and quick burst I’ve been keeping my orange scroll as helm splitter/special sheath and making my blue scroll the new SSC (sacred sheath combo) and it’s been working out extremely well. I usually start off with blue scroll to build gauge with Sakura slash and then swap to my orange scroll to have access to easy lai slash counters and quick burst windows especially when the monster is enraged. But on a knockdown or a stun u know I’m swapping to hit a fat 4k damage combo

How do I do spirit reckoning after sacred sheathe?

This is so bonkers, meanwhile if you're a Swaxe user and have it jammed in the monster and they swipe at something else, you take damage! (It's all cool with me, I use Lance ♥)

What happens if you go into full sheath and use up spirit gauge? Can you then get the quick hit into upgrading your spirit gauge. Like when you released your sheath before it was fully sheathed you we able to quickly get final hit to upgrade gauge level

@irfanmuammar8547

Жыл бұрын

If you full sheath, you'll go into the big hit combo depending how much gauge you are consuming. After the combo you can chain the spirit flash finisher, provided you have enough bar to make the slash (it is a spirit slash attack after all). So if you decided to full sheath, try to get at least 2 hits of the combo to fill the bar so that you can chain the spirit slash finisher afterward.

What armor set are you wearing?

Another question is does that sacred sheath releasing count as a counter? If using the moon skill do you get extra ticks of damage? Or is it just tanking the hit and not a counter like if you released it while charge? If it is a counter would be good to use instead of special sheath it won't send you flying

Armor skills, sharpness, buffs, where you hit, and even a few food skills will play into it. 340/19 is the endgame LS, iirc, which should be better than what he is using, so make sure you’re checking your affinity and sharpness first, and then hitting the exact same target (target dummy) in the same place (head, when lowered), with the same move. If that doesn’t work then you know it’s probably that your armor skills are bad.
