How do you use the Monster Hunter Wilds Gunlance? If you like the look of the Lance but want to give it a bit more oomph, look no further than the Gunlance. This boomstick amounts to a cannon with an enormous bayonet strapped to it, letting hunters switch seamlessly between melee and artillery fire.

The Gunlance is one of the most accessible Monster Hunter Wilds weapons in the RPG game, making it a far better choice for beginners than complex weapons like the MHWilds Switch Axe or the MHWilds Charge Blade. Its moveset has several reliable attack rotations that are easy to master, and this latest iteration is more explosive than ever. Here’s how to effectively use this highly popular boomstick.
