The Lance and Light Bowgun will be getting buffs in a future Monster Hunter Now update, which was revealed by Niantic. So, here’s all the changes coming to both weapons.
Monster Hunter Now Lance and Light Bowgun buffs are finally coming to the game, following months of player complaints. The Light Bowgun is receiving the biggest change after Niantic nerfed the weapon back in the December update. This hit the long-range gun incredibly hard, making it the worst weapon in the game.
Fortunately, Niantic is working on Light Bowgun buffs in Season 1 alongside the Lance that will help increase both weapons’ DPS and usability. So, here’s everything you need to know about the latest Lance and Light Bowgun buffs.

According to a post on the official Monster Hunter Now website, Niantic is working on Light Bowgun buffs in Season 1. We’ve listed all the changes below:
- Adjustments to each ammo type to better utilize the characteristics and effects.
- Adjustments to Critical distance.
Niantic also revealed that Coral Pukei-Pukei subspecies materials will enable forging and upgrading equipment that will improve the availability of Recoil Down Skill and Reload Speed Skill. This will help decrease the downtime between each shot, which will increase the weapon’s DPS.
There is currently no release date for these changes, but the devs did state they are working on it for Season 1.
