Excellent shield, fast attacks, nice defensive moves, the uppercut attack can hit tall monsters (jho, plessy, raths, etc) and is more powerful than the horizontal attack; also the evading moves maybe are difficult to understand at first but when you get used to them they are very useful with ev. +2.

If I don't use them more usually is because I find them a bit... boring (the lack of variety on attacks) and I didn't find a good number of good engame lances on Tri (but I didn't search a lot for them, I must say).
