Can I replace the risen kushala piece with something else?
One of the claimed features of this set is having 2 Pierce up. Pierce up actually doesn't work with elemental pierce ammo. The synergy is traded for being effected by elemental dmg boosts. The only "Up" skill in the category that's the exception to this is Rapid Fire Up for LBG.
This gives you: Crit Boost Lvl 3 Weakness Exploit Lvl 3 Spare Shot Lvl 3 Ballistics Lvl 3 Slugger Lvl 3 Spread Up Lvl 3 Reload Speed Lvl 3 Recoil Down Lvl 3 Stamina Thief Lvl 2 Artillery Lvl 2 Steadiness Lvl 2 Tune-Up Lvl 2 Charge Master Lvl 1
Sticky/Spreadshot build: Purple October - 2x Artillery Rakna Helm X - Precise and Sniper Rakna Mail X - Crit and Absorber Pukei Braces X - Tenderiser Rakna Coil X - 2x Crit Golm Greaves - KO and 2x Absorber Talisman Weakness Exploit 1 - Tenderiser and Sniper
Hi, MHRise. You can also use the Counter Shot or Counter Charger silkbind move in place of a shield mod for your HBG. This way you won't waste decos and gear for the Guard/Offensive Guard skill. This, we think, is the most efficient way to maximize your HBG build. But if you have a build you'd like to share, feel free to share it here so we can have a look. Thank you!
Don't go for any of those builds and instead go for a shield HBG and just ignore every attack that is coming at you while dishing out more damage than 95% of the available builds.
For 3.0 Sticky, would it greatly reduce the DPS without the Wyvern Ammo? I think without it, just stunning monster for solo hunt is quite hard.
Why don’t use the Rhenoplos braces S In the sticky build? It will give lvl2 artillery making the sticky ammo even more powerful
On the sticky build, not counting the attack jewels you have 12 jewels for the build, but only 11 slots.
The Spread build doesn't work. It requires 9 slot 1 decos, but you only have 7. You need a talisman with slots, but you can't use part breaker then.
Apologies for the error on our part and thanks for pointing it out! We hope you continue using our site in the future!
Rathalos Coil AND a Anjanath coil? Not sure we can do that, my dude lol
