Fighting Style
The spiked club is another polearm moveset which is a mix between the gauntlets and spear. It has good range, deals heavy damage, and can counter most attacks with proper timing. Yet the weapon slows the user greatly and offers unforgiving openings to the user's defenses. The club's main advantage over its other counterparts is its fast building weapon gauge, especially if the user connects with its charged chain. Use the weapon carefully and be rewarded with the power to unleash its destructive ultimate attack multiple times during a hunt.

Naginata

 * and undefined can be combined to form infinite combos if the player so desires. The animations for each attack are the same as these standard combos.

 * undefined, undefined, undefined: User scoots forward for a wide swinging slash three times.
 * undefined (held): Rising uppercut which propels user skyward. Stamina is drained as long as the user is aerial.
 * (aerial), , : Three downward slashes.
 * (aerial) undefined: Turning downwards slash. Can be used before or at the end of aerial chain. Keeps the character in the air if player uses it quickly enough against opponent.
 * (aerial) undefined (held): Flips user for a plummeting slam of the bladed end. Hits multiple times until landing.


 * + : Instantly evades enemy attacks if timed to counter the enemy's strikes. Drains stamina quickly if held for too long. Can be used in the air.


 * Two swings and an overhead slice. Press rapidly to lengthen the swinging attack rush. Rush can be extended until either the user stops or until their stamina runs out.


 * undefined + : Twirls naginata over user's head before delivering a powerful diagonal slice.
 * undefined + (team): Crouches before performing a wide horizontal swipe.

Fighting Style
The naginata is another polearm moveset which is a mix between the kusarigama and twin blades. It acts as the middle ground between both weapons, being stronger than the twin blades yet possessing less range than the kusarigama. The moveset offers another mid-ranged and speedy alternative for combo fanatics. Its main flaw is that it drains stamina fairly often, which may be confusing to newcomers in the heat of battle.

 * undefined + (team): Blasts demon with a giant laser beam. Can be held for aiming.

Fighting Style
Gunners differ from archers by having accurate precision and power to hit at a demon's weak spots. Their moveset is stamina conservative —depending on the bullets being used— meaning they may have more energy than archers to dodge or run from attacks. With careful preparation and patience, their attacks can cripple groups or giant demons with a wide arsenal. They can serve as invaluable healers or wrathful auxiliary for the active fighters. Like archers, however, the loading time needed for each attack can be hazardous for close encounters and may cause them to struggle against smaller demons. Gunners are overall slower attackers than archers, but this can be compensated by customizing for a specific build in order to maximize their arsenal.
