A combination weapon of Sword and Shield that morphs into a wide slashing blade that wreaks havoc on monsters no matter how large or how small they can be.
This weapon requires more advanced practice and understanding than most weapons although it is fairly easy to use as a standard Sword and Shield or a Blade that has wide arching strikes, capable of destroying any monster that you will be facing in Monster Hunter World.
In this guide there is a showcase of all of the strongest weapons available for crafting that you may choose from and a discussion of the moves you can do with the Charged Blade.

In this mode you will charge your Phials on your shield to be unleashed for heavier attacks while in blade mode.

Pros and Cons
Pros
- Fast attacks

Overview 
The Charge Blade is a high damage dealing weapon with defensive capabilities that can unleash devastating elemental attacks which can kill even the toughest monsters.
Using a combination of attacks while able to block and deal heavy damage is a hard thing to do, appearing to be similar to the Sword and Shield and Long Sword in comparison to attacks would be a must for any user of the Charge Blade.
Overall the Charge Blade is a hard weapon to master at first but eventually after you have gotten the feel of the weapon, you can unleash destruction to those that get in your way.
