How it playsSword and Shield is the all-rounder. It’s quick and mobile, and it’s the only melee weapon that lets you use items without putting it away. Shield bashes build up stun on the head, so it does more than slice.In WildsIts Focus Strike, Vital Stab, latches onto a wound and follows with a falling slash or a shield upswing.It can guard. A Perfect Guard opens up Counter Slash, and guarding can start a Power Clash.New: hold during a combo for a Charged Chop that stabs at weak points.Lots of movement too, including a backstep from Focus Mode and a slide attack.One of the most recommended weapons for new hunters.
