Then I guess pretty much all lancers in this game suck. And I know what a counter looks like, it's the green flash.

I can see how it's good for solo play, but its use is limited. Also, I don't find repositioning for an attack when countering that easy. if you have Guard 2, recovering is fast and you really never need to counter. The whole point of countering is to get more attacks in, but I don't think it's worth the time to learn it when if you just have Guard 2 you can block and attack fast.

The green flash only appears if you need much time during countering. If you are quick than you should just see some sparkles. Check the vids I posted a while ago to see countering in action.

You are right with the repositioning. That's also my main problem. Right now I use countering only against attacks, when blocking and repositioning wouldn't get me any hits. Like Rathalos running attack.

The Guard 2 skill is nice. But it's not usable in the arena. Which is the only place where I use the lance. (I still prefer other weapons.)
