Charge Blade can't catch a break, can it? Every installment MH team tries to revamp what 4U had already perfected.
-From Beta 1 to Beta 2, they fixed the charged double slash combo so it's easier to pull off.

-I think the fastest SAED now is from guard point combo. It encourages more use of guard points, if for some reason you weren't doing them before. Most times if you're doing an AED-SAED combo the SAED will not be optimally targeted, not to mention it's very hard to line up two combos on a non-incapacitated monster.

-Guard points seem easier than ever.

-Savage axe on wounds feels fine. Having dedicated savage axe mode cluttered up the moveset too much before, now it feels like it has a purpose.

-Charged sword seems to cause more flinching now

-You can double-charge phials now. I have no idea what it does, but it must be good right?

Yeah, I noticed that GP -> SAED was the fastest one and I have no qualms about that. I just think the stationary AED -> SAED is too cumbersome when you just want to attack an immobile target (sleeping, paralyzed etc). Unnecessary change and doesn't flow well enough.

Don't care for Savage Axe so cannot comment much on its improvements.
