GOD! i've wanted to talk about the switch axe for a while... well I won't make a big stink about it but Artemis is right.. I've hit more limiters in axe mode than in sword mode and I'm a career switch axe user in monster hunter. the only time I get the monster to flinch and/or fall over is in the phial burst.. that's the only real reason I use the sword mode.. knock It down or cut off it's tail with the axe portion THEN switch to sword while it's down or weak to pull off an up, side repeat then stab to finish it off... you can't get the same height advantage in sword mode as you can as when in axe mode and using the monster's flight advantage against itself when you upswing or land a perfect overhead and knock them out of the sky is always rewarding.. I don't think it's right that some people spam and use only one part of the weapon that isn't all that powerful because it's fast. that would be like only using the melee attack on a bow because it's faster. ahhh glad to be back.
