Are you sure it's 1.39? I thought it's 1.44... I saw a pic with the following multipliers for each sharpness: Sharpness / Raw / Element Red / 0.50 / 0.25 Orange / 0.75 / 0.50 Yellow / 1.00 / 0.75 Green / 1.05 / 1.00 Blue / 1.20 / 1.06 White / 1.32 / 1.13 Purple / 1.44 / 1.20 imo, these values make sense because the green sharpness is the highest to use on Low Rank gear. then you got a big value increase to help you deal with High Rank monsters and an End game White sharpness as the best possible for High Rank. And finally in Master Rank, you got the End Game High Rank white sharpness as a decent option to use on Master Rank, but a much better new purple sharpness with also a good value increasing of a raw and elemental damage bonuses because purple sharpness is only introduced on Master Rank and it doesn't make sense if the purple sharpness is nerfed to 1.39 but everything is possible so I need a confirmation on this information to clear my mind @.@

One big thing 1 encountered in playing Iceborn u can still run 2 parts of old gear with better slots if u can max out the rest of your armour. The handcraft, free element and spareshot charms become meta and the acid glavens weapon tree i know ishwalda is at the moment OP if u agment in crit attack and custom crit u will get a 130 more raw weapon with the same max affinity (15) and handicraft is easy to slot in.

Could also be great for great sword sleep wakeup, as you only want to hit with last hit of true charge. (Realized while typing. )

Sorry I've used a few of these skills extensively since the release so I'm putting in input. Ailments are very strong in G rank. Blast and poison now deal double the damage paralysis lands more often and same as sleep . I can keep a monster 80% of the time poisoned over 15 to 20 minute hunts. With rathian gunlance. For max might it's because you probably havent ran rank 5. On most weapons you can keep up 50% affinity plus the other effect from rank 5 max might. Artillary rank 5 allows normal gunlance to deal crazy amounts of damage from the new slinger ability. Also your able to wyverns fire almost every 15 seconds.

@mikedavies69794 жыл бұрын
Critical Boost I can agree with to some extent, but in the case of Critical Element/Status I think you should specify that these depend on the monster in select cases. Master's Touch would be better if the MR Kaiser set wasn't so damn restrictive, as if you want the most optimal set you almost must use a Blast based weapon... that isn't always bad, but it leads to many Master's Touch sets being extremely similar and honestly... not particularly interesting. Critical Skills... I like how you conveniently missed Latent Power, Agitator, and to an extent Safi's Set Skill. I'll agree Critical Eye, Weakness Exploit and Maximum might can be more consistently useful, but 2 of the 3 were hit with rather substantial quality of life nerfs of which only one gets a secret to compensate. Latent Power provides 2 high level skills under specific conditions which can be easily achieved without it's secret, Agitator provides the same under a very consistent condition (though better with secret), and Safi's skill is downright busted at times and chains excellently with Latent Power due to the self damage being able to activate it regularly. Handicraft... I'm aware you're talking about the damage modifier for sharpness, but I feel this depends entirely on the weapon itself. So I dont feel it deserves to be higher than Crit in this case. Awakening Skill (Free Element)... No Comment, cant knock on this one as it is a skill you'll want on many weapons. especially guns. Elementless though... I dont see value in it after the nerf. Most elemental weapons will outdamage an elementless weapon in Iceborne, though there are exceptions. Artillery... God send on Gunlance, but I feel it is a mixed bag on other weapons, it is great more often than not but feels inconsistent at times. Focus... cant knock it either. Just a good skill all around the board, but I dont really see it do anything on HBG for myself personally. Shot Variation skills. I cant run them half the time so wont comment. Mighty Bow/Spare Shot... Agreed. Though I do not believe the True Razor Sharp/Spare Shot ups the percentage despite people telling me otherwise. I feel Airborne should depend on the weapon, at least when we talk availability and consistency. Most weapons can only Aerial attack off ledges after all. Fortify... I disagree, it is powerful I will grant. However... if put beside a crit set it will be severely outdamaged if it was alone. Though... I suppose that's more of a supporting sentence, as a set beats it, but no 1 skill will. This was a breakdown based on my experience, but I am most definitely wrong just due to it being based on one point of view.

Max Might does not deactivate the moment you use stamina. It stays active a few seconds after using stamina.

What about the offensive guard skill? It gives you a 15% increase to damage right? Or is it to particular to charge blade that can guard point?

The thing is that the new MR armor is so skill efficient, and with level 4 decos that can for example 2 stack wex speedrunners would be handicapping themselves for using drachen. Also since charms get more levels now drachen has even less use. And since masters touch is a 3 piece bonus in MR you can still fit another set bonus if you so choose. Regular crit element on bow for example. TLDR drachen isn't good anymore.

It's better than any armor set currently man. 1 extra skill on a charm is trash. And I've already seen the full lvl 4 deco tree. Surprise. There are no hard offensive decos, if you dont know what that is it gives you 3 points for a skill, all of the duals are 1 offense 1 defense, and the decos that give 2 points for a skill are not present for every offensive skill. I've made a set very close to drachen, attack boost 4, crit eye 7, crit boost 3, weakness exploit 3, masters touch, and then theres a few unwanted skills like heat guard, and latent power. Theres also fortify. But the drachen set is still better.

The problem with crit element 2 is its attached to trash. The only good teostra pieces are head, chest, arms. And theres still unwanted skills. Velkhana only has coalesence. I dont think it's on the waist and legs. And velkhana also has trash slots.

Any gunners messed around to see if there's a difference between the Nargacuga Essence and Spare shot charm? The set bonus says its "true" razor sharp/spare shot. Does it just affect the razor sharp or spare shot as well? From experience they seem about the same. Both have times when you shot you 3 round clip and no procs and the next clip it procs 4-5 times in a row.

@Guran.M4 жыл бұрын
Just an FYI you forgot Attack Boost, Agitator and Coalescence since they are also offensive boost skills and are pretty good as attack 4 gives you an extra 5% in crit, Agitator+5 gives the player more attack and a 10% in affinity and finally Coalescence which gives a boost in elemental or status and attack when healed from either status aliment or elemental Blight
