Insect Glaive has a fast attack speed as well as many hit combos, plus you can mount where you want because of its jump. It is also very mobile when drawn. You have to regulary send the bug out however in order to get that. The Charge Blade is rather slow with drawn weapon, but it deals great damage, and has also a good combo when charged. Since I don't like ranged weapons in general, I don't recommend the bow. Also, in MH4U its controls got changed so you should keep that in mind.
