The most efficient way is to actually just foucs on grinding high tier anomaly investigations. Pick one that is fun to you & that you can consitantly complete in a reasonable time of your liking. I recommend sticking to investigations with 1 or 2 monsters as target. More is rarely worth it, due to some of the shinanigans that happen between the monsters & also the the occasional bad luck with HP modifiers.

It's explained in the Video 😄Offensive Guard only increases Raw Damafe. It has no effect at all on elemental Damage. Wich makes the skill next to worthless on elemental Builds.

Due to the diminishing returns of Wind Mantle, going for additional Frenzied Bloodlust has more value. But you can ofc still go for Wind Mantle if you like.

Yup, that was just me missing the 3rd ATK +4 Deco when making the overlay for the Build somehow 😄Luckily it's easy enough to tell when looking at the Skills here.

@@YokaiNox yeah I figured but just wanted to make sure. Thank you for the reply and for all these build videos I’ve been using them to get ideas a lot. I’ve pretty much copied build number 2 exactly since I already had a poison Longsword build going and this just seemed like a more optimized version of what I had I think all I’m really missing is one level of masters touch since my talismans slots don’t really work for me to fit it in

O.o 2000 ? That is some seriously bad luck man! lol Luckily as adressed in the Video, it's not essential to get the exact same Augments. O r getting them on the same parts, if they are interchangable.

From the Ironshell Decorations 😊

😄There was a Link to Builds without Augments in the Video ▶kzbin.info/www/bejne/g4GYe6Kvgqdqr80si=5mXr04JgF-K6ZsGv

@@YokaiNox tysm man, your videos are helping me SO much, God bless

You have to do the Starlight (USJ) Event Quest to unlock it.

It's one of the secret endemic lifeforms. (There is a different one on every map)

There is no viable raw bow build. The closest you get is buildup boost + blast bow, and even that struggles against the basic elemental bows

@@Jusbale ah i see thanks for clearing that up

Yup, sadly Raw Bow just doesnt hold up aswell as Element in Sunbreak. It's mostly due to some of the Skills synergizing incredibly well for element & not doing very much for Raw on the other end. You can still make a "viable" Raw Bow Build, but it will get outperformed by a basic element Build every day of the week.

@@YokaiNox yeah i already tried to build a raw set with chameleos bow. even a full non augmented chaotic set hit harder than the augmented raw set. thanks for the 2nd build btw it makes farming afflicted way easier.

Hey 🖐🏽 "Wisdom Talisman" is just the standard name for all rarity 10 Talismans that you get from Cyclus, or Vigor melding😄 What is your current Master Rank & Anomaly Research Rank ? You might not have these melding methods unlocked yet.

You’ll have to get it through augmentation. I just did it on the legs

Yup, you can use a Frostcraft Lv 2 Talisman for them. As mentioned you will then ofc have to get the 3rd Lv via Augments, since FC is a priority Skill here. So you may have to lower Buildup Boost by -1 Lv for example, since that is much less important to max out for the Build.

Uroktor has a level 2 rampage slot so can’t slot in elembane. Rathalos has a level 3 slot better raw and better reload speed. Also has an better capacity for fire pierce ammo

Hey 🖐🏽 as @TheHoneyDuke mentioned, it's due to various reasons that the Rathalos LBG comes out ontop. Mostly the Rampage Deco Slot & the overall Ammo Capacity just being way more usefull in general.

Cause of the skill blood rite,it gives you health when you hit broken parts

The life-steal effect is from the Skill "Blood Rite" wich is explained in the Video aswell^^

I'm super confused.. 😅 There are 7 Builds - wich one do you mean ? Alos MR = Master Rank. Master Rank is only in the Sunbreak expansion and these are High Rank Builds here. If you are looking for MR Builds, you should check out the other Sunbreak Build Videos for Insect Glaive on the Channel 😊

Well yes, of course 😄 It's also mentioned in the Video. This is simply for any players who prefer just using Raw. (I personally pretty much never do in Sunbreak xD) Elemental Dual Blades have their own Video here aswell 😊

😄 Sounds like something that could happen to me aswell lol

It's definitely not the same Build then! 😄😄 But no worries, we can fix your DMG ^_^ - What are you Skills exactly ? - Are you using the correct Augments & Gun settings ?

Hi there 🖐🏽 My apologies for the delayed reply. Was out of town for a bit^^ Glad you enjoyed the Video & found it helpful! Kinsect Choice is entirely up to personal prefference! I use mutiple different ones depending on what i'm fighting, or what exactly i'm trying to do in the hunt. I use Chain & Speed Charge types the most, but literally every single Kinsect in the game has it's benefits & a time to shine.

No they didn’t. It’s risen valstrax armor that has it and you have to kill one to unlock its armor

As @timpike8559 mentioned here, Dragon Con. is only on the "Risen Valstrax" Armor, not on the regular Valstrax Armor.

As i mention in the Video, it's not required here at all. Just a lucky bonus for me. You dont need the extra Lv of Wind Mantle.

Just the Endgame Anomaly Grind for hours & hours & hours😄 Luckily some of the most relevant ones for endgame set making like Crit Eye 3 /2-2-2/ for example, arent hard to get at all and can make up for other crazy rng dependet charms. But stuff like Buildup Boost, Frostcraft, Mail of Hellfire , etc has no easy answer. Grinding is the only way to do it legit. If you have a anomaly quest to grind out the melding materials, it's not as bad as it might seem though. But in the end, it comes down to how lucky you get either way.

Hi there 🖐🏽 My apologies for the delayed reply. Was out of town for a bit^^ Yup, you pretty much answeered your own question imideatly :D Move to their secondairy weakness, or run a Pierce/Spread Build.

Sadly there is definitely no replacing those pieces for Endgame Builds. You'll just have to run without the significant Skills tied to those armor pieces for the time. But no worries, you'll still be able to do pretty good damage either way.

Hi there 🖐🏽 My apologies for the delayed reply. Was out of town for a bit^^ In that case, just enjoy your journey untill you get there ^_^ There are plenty of Builds on the Channel that will fit whatever your current Rank might be along the way 😊Happy hunting!🎉

@@YokaiNox really? sure i look for other videos u have

Glad it was helpfull! ^_^

Flaming Espinas weapons also have built in poison along with the fire element so it deals hidden poison build up too. When I was using lance thats what I was rocking.

Hi there 🖐🏽 My apologies for the delayed reply. Was out of town for a bit^^ The Flaming Espinas Lance comes out ahead, because it has various benefitial things going for it, that the Aknosom Lance cant make up for overall. Exponentialy better Sharpness, better Slotage, 15% Affinity - wich opens up Build customization & Hidden Poison effect that gets applied to roughly 33% of your hits. The Aknosom Lance is still a very solid choice though 👍🏽

Hi there 🖐🏽 My apologies for the delayed reply. Was out of town for a bit^^ "Pure" Raw damage weapons have beasically become useless in the endgame (outside of a few very big exceptions). We're choosing Blast/Poison/or other Status weapons, not for the actual Status effect itself, but to make use of the "Buildup Boost" Skill, wich increases Raw Damage by 10/15/20% on every hit that deal status damage. This is why status weapons far outperform pure raw weapons now. Thanks for your question & the feedback, I appreciate it ! ^_^

@@YokaiNox Hi Nox! Thanks for the reply! I appreciate you taking the time to respond and help me better understand. You're a great creator! Your reasoning makes great sense! I'm working thru MR levels to get this build made now. I appreciate the help!

Hi there 🖐🏽 My apologies for the delayed reply. Was out of town for a bit^^ The high damage is definitely not just from Dragon Conversion itself. It's due to the vast multi-skill synergy we have here. Not anywhere near the 100 range ? That sounds like there might be some other issues going on here. If this hasnt been cleared up yet/fixed, let me know. We can troubleshoot and figure out what's going wrong for sure.

Hi there 🖐🏽 My apologies for the delayed reply. Was out of town for a bit^^ No worries, once you get into the later Ranks & Endgame this stuff will all come alot more naturally.

Hi there 🖐🏽 My apologies for the delayed reply. Was out of town for a bit^^ This has probabbly long been resolved now, but no worries! Missing the Attack Augments will decrease the DMG output, but for elmental gunning it's not that big of a deal. For a Raw Build like Pierce/Spread/Normal Shot, it would be a drastic DMG drop.

@@Miggypg Glad you enjoyed it ^_^ Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it👌🏽

@@RealKritticalHitz That's the Sacred Sheathe. You can mive around via those dodges when the Sword is Sheathe like that. Then you realease the sacred sheathe for the strong 3 hit combo you see in the Video.

@@cuteisjustice8542 😄 They became my unvoluntary Build testing targets a long time ago.

@@randomexplorer2309 I always say wich Monster/W.Tree the weapon is from, wich makes it way easier to find it in the weapon tree, than the actual weapon name.

@@callofdutychampion7303 Literally any of them 😄 There are no Builds specifically focused around counter heavy playstyles in base MHRise. Those only exist in Sunbreak.

Ok I played until ar mr 200 something on switch but I just recently got mhr on my xbox so I'm going through that

@@gajahshinchan It is 😄 + it's also explained in the video^^ - 50% (Weakness Exploit Lv 3) - 40% (Critical Eye Lv 7) - 25% (Bloodlust Lv 2) That's 115% Affinity. The Weapon itself has negative 15%. So you land on exactly 100%.

@@YokaiNox ugh i'm an idiot, my bad! I googled every skill on the build and when I got to bloodlust, google gave me frenzied bloodlust instead, which has no effect on affinity. thanks for the reply.

@@YokaiNox hey!!! thanks for the reply! haha i dont have some of the +4 decorations, how to i unlock those?

@@sup3rmahn583 Hey👋🏽 Most of the +4 Decos get unlocked in Endgame. So you basically just have to progress your Anomaly Research Rank & hunt new afflicted Monsters. (I'd recommend hunting all of them atleast once, to make sure you dont miss any Decorations.)
