There are a variety of weapons and armor builds in Monster Hunter Wilds, each having its way to bring out the best ways to take down monsters. One of the better builds for the Great Sword is going to be a Critical Hit build with a variety of low-level to high-level Active Skills that allow the weapon to deal as much damage as possible when you strike the monster.

Sword & Shield in Monster Hunter Wilds is perhaps one of the best and most customizable weapons at your disposal, suitable for quick-attacking, guarding, even item usage while not sheathed.
