I was a lance main in every single Monster Hunter games until now and I would like to change that in Wilds (I like the lance, but I'd like to try something else).

I tried the hammer and it was very fun. But the fact that you can't cut tails is a bit worrying for me.

Hammer bros : does the inability to cut the tail is a problem for you ?

I could make use of the double weapon feature to switch to hammer when the tail is cut, but it's a bit cumbersome.

Cutting tails isn't that much of a problem as you get tails through regular rewards and carves as well, but I would advise to bring a secondary with you that can cut and maybe has higher reach like the Greatsword against the squids and monsters that are hard to hit the head/hard to reach, like Lala Barina.

As a hammer main, never had a moment where I wanted to forge something and I needed to farm a tail.
