Best Gunlance Skills
Best Damage Skills
These skills make it possible to deal extra damage! Aim for these skills for maximum DPS to defeat those monsters easier and finish those quests faster!
| Best Skills | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Artillery ★★★ |
Artillery affects the Gunlance's Shelling and Wyvern's Fire, two of its biggest sources of damage. Getting this skill is a must to improve your damage output. |
| Agitator ★★★ |
Provides Attack and Affinity whenever the monsters is enraged, which will happen quickly when you are hunting High Rank monsters. That makes this skill worth investing in. |
| Burst ★★★ |
Burst is a great source of additional damage as your Gunlance combos can quickly stack this Skill's bonus damage. |
| Load Shells ★★★ |
Gives your Gunlance an additional shell while also making your reloads faster. A must-have for Wide Gunlances. |
| Offensive Guard ★★ |
With the Perfect Block and the new Power Clash mechanic, partnered with the Gunlance's Shield, Offensive Guard is easy to activate, giving you even more bonus Attack. |
| Partbreaker ★★ |
Lets you break monster parts more easily, which synergizes well with how easily Gunlances can break parts. |
| Resentment ★★ |
Provides Attack whenever you have red HP, which happens whenever you block with your shield. |
| Counterstrike ★★ |
Provides a big raw attack boost whenever the player is knocked back. Helpful whenever you mistime a guard! |
| Attack Boost ★ |
Because shelling now scales off raw attack, it's worth investing points in this skill if there are no other options available. |
Best Comfort Skills
These are skills that make managing weapon mechanics a lot easier. Damage is only part of the equation - taking time to slot in comfort skills that increase consistency & comfort will also increase overall DPS!
| Best Skills | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Guard Up ★★★ |
A perfect skill that complements Perfect Block. Guard Up is a great comfort skill, as it allows you to perform Perfect Blocks on normally unblockable attacks. |
| Guard ★★★ |
Complements the Gunlance's shield, allowing you to block more attacks without worrying too much about your stamina. |
| Earplugs ★★★ |
At high levels, this skill lets you negate monster roars - preventing interruptions when performing long combos! |
| Focus ★★ |
This skill speeds up charging shells, making Wyvern's Fire charge easier to restore. |
| Evade Extender ★★ |
Makes your evasions longer, including your backstep and sidestep. This removes the need to sheathe your weapon to move around and dodge monster attacks. |
| Decimator ★ |
This skill heals you whenever you destroy wounds, which reduces the downtime caused by healing. This in turn allows you to attack more often. |
| Divine Blessing ★ |
A useful skill that can help mitigate damage that you fail to block. Not a must, but can help in higher difficulty hunts. |
| Shock Absorber ★ |
Useful especially in multiplayer as it will prevent your attacks from affecting your teammates and vice versa. |

Give try White Cannon from Gravios Tree. It has slightly strong Long shelling. Compared to G. Lawful Bors, no dragon element but got blast instead. Same sharpness and -1 tier deco slot (T3-2-1 instead T3-3-1). Got guard up lv. 3 which more useful than Lawful Bors's normal guard lv. 2. The extra 30 defense stat is trade off from -5% affinity, but may saves you from OHK. Decos are Arti lv. 3, Magazine Lv. 2 and free T1 up to your like. You can even bring both to variate your combo.
