I am creating my builds by intuition with experience and extensive knowledge which piece of armour has which skills and what slots. Make sure not to forget the melding between hunts ~ among all the other thingsĪs this is for readers who consider it helpful when they have numbers to visualise things But it is still worth bringing along talismans which support those so you can swap out skills at your convenience.Ī few examples of talismans which I consider all great on their own, despite they do not follow the "mainstream meta scheme" which dictates a weakness-and-attack-orientated talisman usage. If a build does not show any of those skills, it means that the other skills I consider more important at that point. Just to name a few skills which are great and fit with many builds as supporting skills, regardless which direction the actual armor-set-skill-build is heading towards. Please take also skills into consideration which can be used within many builds with great impact. It is just the simple thought: the more different decorations you can slot in, the easier it is to build around that. That does not mean a 2-2-1 or even a 1-1-1 talisman has to be bad. However, I recommend one which has a 3-2-1 decoration slot setup, as in: it provides a slot for a level 3 decoration, a level 2 decoration and a level 1 decoration for maximum flexibility. That is simply because it is impossible to tell what good talisman you have or do not have. My armor-sets builds sugesstions I am going to share here are all built without taking any talisman into consideration. I welcome every new player to the beloved game franchise of Monster Hunter and I hope and wish for you the best experience you can have as a beginner! If you are new to the game, please check out my guide for beginners Which is still good because it will give you at least a different point of view you can use at your own convenience. That also means that maybe, from your point of view, nothing of this is good. I give you pointers, directions, tips which are all based on my very personal experience which I personally consider good. Therefore, I will not give you " everything", nor will I explain " everything from the very basics". About those mentioned reasons I go much more in-depth in my other guides which are reviewing several multiplayer related issues in the past. Second reason is: the way how it affects multiplayer is no good.

While it is your right, you rob yourself of an experience which makes the feeling of the gameplay whole. Main reason for me is: you skip an essential part of the game. That written, I start this guide very biased with my own dislikes towards this - why you may ask? - because I am a player who thinks that no one is helped if you just copy & paste what is considered a "meta build" for various reasons. Veteran's will gain nothing from this "guide", and I am seeing this more as a foundation to help new players and beginners with providing some orientation which goes beyond " slapping a random meta build you find on the internet on your character without actually understanding how it works".


This guide is directed towards new players who are experiencing a hard time to wrap their head around armor-skills-builds, or just want to skip that part of the game entirely.
#MONSTER HUNTER RISE ARMOR SETS HOW TO#
You can find the list of armor sets on the pages below.īe sure to check out the following pages to find out how to maximize your Armor with armor skills.If you are a veteran, you do not need this. And if your great crit-build leaves you with a negative 5 Thunder Resistance, you might want to think twice about taking on that Thunder-element monster, or equip the decorations and eat a meal to bring it up to a respectable number.Īrmor is categorised into Low Rank and High Rank. Keep in mind if you choose three pieces of armor from the same set you'll get a boost to all of your elemental resistances, but that isn't necessarily the most important factor, especially if you're looking to maximize damage output or utility.įor example, the Guard and Offensive Guard Armor Skills work well when using a Lance, but are completely useless when paired with a Long Sword, which can't guard at all. Look at each piece of armor's Armor Skills and resistances, then choose based off of that. Instead, you want to choose your armor pieces based on the weapon you're using, your preferred playstyle, and the monster you're up against. It's rare for one armor set in Monster Hunter Rise to be the best for everything.
#MONSTER HUNTER RISE ARMOR SETS UPGRADE#
Then, you can upgrade them even further by using Armor Spheres.

Head to the Smithy in town, or at the Gathering Hub, to craft armor out of these materials.
