![]() After you charge your phials successfully, you can either press X to perform an Upslash in Sword Mode, or you can press A to instantly transition into Axe Mode with the first AED.You can even spam them by constantly sidestepping, to somewhat quickly and safely charge your phials. After side stepping in Sword Mode, you can press X to perform a Roundslash.It’s performed later than the Morph to Axe GP, but it also has a longer uptime than it. In most styles there is a GP when you end your Roundslash in Sword Mode.With them you can be incredibly aggressive and attack in windows where other weapon types could not. Mastery of GPs, both of when to use them and when not to use them, is essential to mastery of Charge Blade.It also boosts the KO damage dealt by Impact Phials as well as the damage of all phials. Red Shield has more benefits than Yellow Shield in the forms of better Guarding potential, more Axe attack damage, and Phial Explosions whenever you Guard or GP an attack. Performing the Shield Charge by canceling the SAED will grant you Red Shield instead of Yellow Shield.The Ultra AED will consume your Shield Charge though. You can perform an SAED instead of an Ultra by mashing Back + X before your hunter executes the attack. If your Shield is charged, you can perform Ultra AEDs by performing the same inputs for the SAEDs.To perform a Shield Charge, you can either press X + A after a Shield Thrust in Sword Mode, or cancel your SAED with R while in Axe Mode (press R just as the shield ‘expands’).The third AED, what’s commonly known as the Super AED (SAED) in the combo, will stick 3 Phial Bursts to the monster, and you can also perform it directly with X + A while in Axe Mode.The AEDs transfer your phials into Phial Bursts which will stick to the monster and explode shortly after. These will consume your phials, if you have any. In Axe Mode, you can perform a basic two-step combo with X, and perform Amped Elemental Discharges (AEDs) with A.Note that this GP doesn’t happen if you unsheathe into Axe Mode via R + X + A. In most styles, this is associated with a GP and is the simplest way to GP. Transition to Axe Mode from Sword Mode by pressing R + X.Like normal Guards, you have to be facing the attack in order to guard it, but you’ll continue your animation, as if the attack never happened, as long as the attack is weak enough. ![]()
