MHR Help choose a weapon
I’m a beginner. I’ve used Charge Blade extensively I know it’s a technical weapon but CPP and other wirebind skills make it really fun to use. I’m thinking of picking an alternate weapon to use as a main. I didn’t like the Lance felt really slow. Was thinking of using long sword again what do you guys recommend for a melee focused playstyle. Also people say long sword is DPS focused and becomes difficult to play in the long run what does that mean?

This is never a good question to ask. Everyone is just going to suggest their favorite. Or for the multi-users, all their faves. RiseBreak is really the title to try out everything and see what feels good. And don't neglect mixing up the switch skills. I ended up loving weapons I always hated because of that.
Because you've already dove into what is generally considered the hardest for beginners, you'll probably be fine with anything else you pick up. So I would recommend Switch Axe. It has a lighter gauge management mechanic but is faster. No defense though, until you get the elemental burst counter.
No idea what that comment about LS could mean. RiseBreak is a DPS focused game for a majority of players. But you don't have to focus on it if you have more fun playing a different way. LS is just very counter heavy, so knowing your weapon and the mons very well is perhaps the biggest roadblock.

I feel like OP wants a melee weapon with faster gameplay, due to them disliking the Lance for it being very slow, despite it being a melee weapon.
I think Switch Axe seems to go well with the Charge Blade Build I currently have. Might be a good idea to try it out. I think I’ve relied heavily on blocking, so using something that’s completely offensive might feel challenging and interesting. Thanks for the suggestion
