Damn... I guess it would be hard to notice most of those things unless you tried it out for yourself, I can see why its so bad off. Even in 3U and 4U I found lance underwhelming DESPITE it being my most used weapon, there's just too many factors going against it (I'm looking at YOU Zinogre...) It's really sad to hear that it's that poor off. It seems like, with the exception of charge blade, every popular weapon/playstyle in MH got buffed while the lesser used ones were give even less of a reason to be used. Again, maybe this will give me a reason to play HH more now, if I can actually become better with it. One last question on Generations lance, how come elements aren't as viable as status on aerial lance? Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't elemental damage the same for all attacks, regardless of motion value?
