Also, when dual blades reach below standard sharpness the Demon's Dance will not complete and will only have 4 or 5 hits.
Because they are quick to deal multiple strikes in a short amount of time, Dual Blades lose sharpness faster than any other weapons. Some attacks on Dual Blades are one sided, for example, pressing "circle" will do a quick spin-slash upwards to the right side, but if you press circle as well as left on the analog stick, your slash will be left-upward. 
Dual Blades' combos can do very high damage over time. Dual Blades do not provide shielding ability, but can roll after an attack, though rolling is not possible in the middle of a combo. This is thought to be due to difficulties with underwater combat or Wiimote control compatibility (though some speculate that shaking the Wiimote is almost ideal given the "button mashing" required).ĭual Blades are more than just a couple of blades to slash and maim: The only Monster Hunter title to be released in the US not featuring any DS-class weapons is Monster Hunter Tri. This differs from Sword and Shield methods of creating grandiose combos or infinite strikes (as opposed to short combos which move the player dramatically). 
Dual Blades are most notable for their "chain-attack" method of dealing large amounts of damage over time. Dual Blades can also increase their damage output via the "Devil's Dance" skill (akin to the Longsword's "spirit blade"), which increases damage output and does not cancel or overlap the effects of buff items (e.g. Their small attack stat and inability to block is made up for by their high attack speed and wide variance in elemental damage and status effects - some Monster Hunter games even allowing them to possess 2 different status effects simultaneously. Weapon Overview Dual Blades (双剣 Souken), or 'DB' (previously known as Dual Swords or 'DS') are a high speed class of weapon introduced in the western version of Monster Hunter (Not released in Japan until Monster hunter G).
