I my self am a Swich Axe user, and it distroyed me three times before I realised that it was not going to work. The inability to block with this weapon made it a nightmare to finish this quest... Brachydios's arms swing to fast and have to long of a reach to effectivily dodge the attacks. I have been using Swich Axes as my primary weapon for everything since they first came out as a weapon. My reacomendation for you is obtain a water great sword or a ice great sword, namely the Barioth great sword G rank, or the Grank Pleasioth sword. I used the Barioth G rank armor and a charm that gave +20 health. This quest was hell for me. Seriously go for a weapon that has a block and deals tons of damage yet can give you the ability to roll. If you do go with the great sword be careful when your putting it away. Now if your really good with ds go for it as it moves fast. The down side is that you cant block and it take a long time to deal out the damage. Since theres two of them just be fast yet careful. Well good luck to you and I really hope this helps you as this quest really kicked me in the nabbs at first. Happy Hunting!!
