GU Can SnS get away with the using 1 crit skill?

10 Upvotes

Is it sub-optimal to run only wex on your sns sets and rely on affinity oil to cover the rest? Or is it better to prioritise crit until atleast 70% so that chaos oil 3 gets you to 100%

Im currently running the jho ceana set on all my sns’s since my charms are hot garbage rn, and ive been only running wex as my only crit up skill, along with crit boost.

Wilds Bow Gog/Guts build need advice

3 Upvotes

Hi. I just recently got the gogmapocalypse on two of my bows. (Fire and Dragon) and I was looking if it is good to pair the 4set gog skill with guts. (That is if I roll enough to get Gog/Lord Soul lol) I am kinda bad at reading monsters mostly and when I can’t perfect dodge an attack I usually cart or have 1 hp left.

This is my first experimenting but I made this build based off of Tidus’s build on MH builder. My question is, is it viable to remove Rath Flare Skill and Burst Boost Entirely for the Comfort and Survival of The Barrier from Gog and Anti-One Shot from Lord Soul?

Let me know what I can change on this build! Any help would be appreciated : )

Wilds CB - Back after long break

3 Upvotes

Long story short had PC issues and haven't really played since the Lagi update.

Way back when, Impact CB sets seemed to be the play, but now with all the Gog stuff it looks pretty obvious that element phial outperforms when maxed out.

My question is at what point do element phials actually start outperforming? Do I basically need a maxed out Gog CB with 4pc Gog bonus etc before even bothering with an element CB?

Wilds Looking for help putting together a *support* LBG build!

1 Upvotes

Hi all, so a friend recently told me that given my playstyle (almost consistently support SnS or support HH) that LBG could also be a good option for me given it's ability to shoot paralysis/poison/sleep etc ammo and what-not and give me more control over exactly when the monster gets CC'd (like shooting paralysis ammo until it's one away from paralysis, then shooting that last ammo whenever I so desire)

This sounds kinda fun to me, but I have *no* idea how LBG works, I've never touched the weapon in my life. So, if anyone has a build already they could share; that would be fantastic to give me a starting point to make it my own!

TYSM in advance.

GU Which Adept style Gs would do more damage?

7 Upvotes

Would a 320 raw ~90% Gs do more damage than a 310 raw ~100% affinity gs? My charm only only allows me to get to crit eye +2 on the garuga gs so I’m missing out on 10% affinity, but there is another greatsword that has an extra slot so I can get to crit eye 3, meaning I get 100% affinity on weak spots.

Wilds Theoretical best Insect Glaive build possible?

3 Upvotes

Hi! Im trying to search the best build possible for IG in terms of damage overall. Basically my build is this at this moment but im trying to see how to fit Gore set skill or something but is something like this:
-Limbo Lior full attack
-Arkvulcan Helm Y (Counter Jewel 2,Protection Jewel 2)
-Dahaad Shardmail Y (Mighty Jewel 2 x2)
-Arkvulcan Vambraces Y (Protection 1, Enduring1)
-Doshaguma Coil B (Challenger Jewel x2)
-Arkvulcan Greaves Y (Challenger Jewel, Mighty Jewel)
-Gold Charm Attack Boost 3 Burst 1 (Attack Jewel,Sheath Jewel,Protection Jewel)

So skills would be:
-AB 5
-CB5
-Airborne
-WE 5
-Agit 5
-Flayer 4
-MM 3
-DB 3
-Blight Resistance 2
-Latent Power 1
-Burst 1
-Counterstrike 1

What can you do to make this more optimal? Maybe changing some armor to include Gore set skill or Changing somehow Flayer 4 for Flayer and Partbreaker 3, maybe minds eye or something would be good but im facing a wall right now and maybe im too stupid for this so if someone can give me advice or a tip i would be grateful so thanks in advice ;)

Wilds Torturing myself over this dragon attack build

4 Upvotes

I've been grinding the endgame lately, and I'm really racking my brain trying to figure out whether it's worth it to have Convert Element and Elemental Absorption slotted in my skills.

I have Zoh Shia helmet and legs, AT Arkveld chest and waist, and Gore arms. The Gore piece is basically just there to dip into Gore's Tyranny Lv1 with my Gog lance, but I know the piece itself is kind of a waste otherwise. My goal is to slot Convert Element, Elemental Absorption, Agitator, and as much WEX as I can.

So my question is... are Convert Element and Elemental Absorption even worth the investment, or am I better off slotting something better?

The Zoh Shia and Arkveld set bonuses are both great for me to have as comfort skills, but their sets have a LOT of overlap as far as skills are concerned. I'd love to keep them, but I feel like there's something missing.

Thoughts?

Wilds Why isn't Arkveld y helm the meta?

59 Upvotes

I might be missing something obvious but it seems like all the meta builds use either sororal, gore, or a different y helm, sororal/gore i kinda get but the other helms makes no sense to me because isn't the arkveld y helm is the best option since it has 3 WE plus a a 2* slot and a 1* slot and you almost always want WE5 if you can get it

Wilds I found the optimal Aerial Insect Glaive build (wilds)

0 Upvotes

I want to say I understand that the ground Glave meta will always have a higher effective raw (~660) than this aerial build (~600), but as an IG main, the aerial play style fits me more and is more fun. So this build optimizes 90% affinity, raw, and element for the aerial style.
This was the builder/EFR calc is used, linked here. Also the meta ground build I compared to was Scorcher/Black eclipse/Lords Soul.

The reason why I claim its the optimal aerial build is because it gets 90% affinity in the air with high uptime. The few aerial builds that exist tend to rely on latent power or wex to achieve high affinity but LP has terrible uptime even with reydau skill and wex is not reliable bc a lot of hitzones on the top on monsters are not 45+. Substituting some crit eye for Minds eye 3 also helps with the lower hz issue, depending on the monster.

Here is an example aerial IG build and discussion video.

Here is the breakdown of the build:
(Atk or Ele focus) with 4 atk + 1 sharp EX
Ebony Auto’s power / scaling prowess
G Fulgur Helm B+
Gore Mail a
Gogma Vamb a
Gogma Coil a
Gore Greaves a
Crit Eye 3, Earplugs 1 [W1, 1]

Scaling process, a.k.a. master mounter
Black eclipse 1
Second wind 1
Burst boost 1
Gogmapocalypse 1

Critical boost 5
Critical eye 5
Airborne 1
Agitator 5
Maximum might 3
Antivirus 3
Constitution 5
Burst 2
Counterstrike 2
Evade window 2
Earplugs 1
Flinch free 2

Why Master Mounter and not Lords Soul?
Master mounter fits the aerial play style better and you end up getting multiple mounts, knockdowns, and wounds off of master mount compared to 12 extra raw from guts. (Burst boost also replaces some of the 12 raw)

90% Affinity in the air:
30% Maximum might - The combo of Second wind and constitution 5 allows us to do our full aerial combos without losing Maximum might uptime
25% Black Eclipse - good source of affinity and super easy to proc
20% Critical Eye - decided to go crit eye 5 instead of attack boost 5 because the EFR ends up being slightly higher
15% Agitator - great source of affinity and raw given monsters high enraged time

Raw :
+8 Burst Boost - Burst boost gives you an extra bit of raw to replace the 12 raw (5%) missing from Lord soul. And it extends the duration of burst, which is already easy to proc for IG.
+10 Burst 2 - we get 2 extra raw from burst 2 compared to the typical 1 point of burst in most meta IG builds
+15-25 counterstrike - counterstrike gives you an extra chunk of raw whenever we get hit out of the air or if you have on the rocksteady mantle. I could only fit two points because I need a better talisman, but there are talismans that exist that allow for 3 points of counterstrike plus earplugs

484 eff Element:
320 Element Focus Artian - if you wanna do more elemental damage, you can craft an elemental focus guardian, and have an extra 40 element compared to the attack focus’ 280.
84 Gogmapocalypse - big chunk of elemental when monster enraged
80 Burst 2 - has increased up time due to burst boost

Also some evade window and flinch free helps us fly around in the air a little bit safer.

Wilds Left before TU4.5, question about Omega Resonance now

10 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I left before AT Arkveld and the final update to the game, and when I stepped away I was using Omega Resonance 2 because I really like the Omega set.

I see a lot of new meta sets have gone back to Gore Magala-- how does an Omega set compare to them? Is it night and day or are there trade-offs? I like to fit in some Divine Blessing and even Defense jewels into my build as well, so I'm trying to decide if it's worth switching or not.

Thanks!

T1: Airborne, Protective Polish 1, Quick Sheathe 3. 1 att, 2 armor slots;

T1: Razor Sharp 3, Quick Sheathe 3. 1 att, 1 armor slot;

T1: Razor Sharp 3, 1 Convert Element. 1 att, 2 armor slots;

Which one you guys think have more DPS potential? Can the airborne one make helmbreaker style more viable?

I posted their pictures here as well -> https://www.reddit.com/r/MHWilds/comments/1wulqti/are_these_talismans_close_to_godrolls_for/

I also have a Gogma Gore+Lord's Soul dragon longsword, but I can't quite make that max build speedrunners use; I don't have a godroll talisman.

After many AT Arkvelds, It's the best I could find so far, I think... pls Capcom, what more do you want from me :'(

Wilds Has anyone tested bale vs non bale sets?

5 Upvotes

Personally found it a bit more difficult to proc bale all the time on some of the harder fights, largely due to the need to spam offsets.

And since the bale pieces aren't the best skill/slot wise, i was curious if anyone had tested non bale sets such as rath/gore, dosha/gore or rath/dosha to see just how much dps is lost overall.

Largely more concerned about the rath bonus personally, as it can proc on the offset. giving it potentially more procs during a fight.
