I like they way they did the lance in Tri. It's so awesome. But for a good starting weapon, I would suggest the Sword and shield. I mean, lots of people call it a noob weapon, but I'm a High Rank hunter and I still use them(I'm only HR 33, but still...). And they give a perfect balance of mobility and blocking ability. I would recommend the Royal Ludroth path or the Assassins Dagger path. Just expect to pack a bunch of whetstones.
