I found GS's to be quite effective in Tri, but they were a lot easier to obtain and craft a really good one in MHFU. I still play around sometimes with GS's when I'm bored. Figured out that, when it comes to monsters, the Rath's are really easy with a GS. But despite what you might think, the harder monsters to fight are the large ones like Lao-Shan and Shen Gaoren, where they can interrupt your attacks with the constant quakes.
