| Regular Hit | Status Hit |

When using status weapons, around 1/3 of your hits will inflict the status and buildup in the monster. Having Buildup Boost increases the raw damage of the hits that build up status based on the skill level. This is effectively a raw damage multiplier to all status weapons, as seen in the table above.
When using the Sword Mode for Exhaust Switch Axes like the Reconqueress, all hits count as inflicting status. This means that Buildup Boost is always active, making the skill a powerful pairing for these weapons.
Lucent Nargacuga weapons are known to have high raw but just a small amount of poison. With Buildup Boost, these weapons can stand out over regular raw weapons even at Lv 1 thanks to the skill's damage increase. Make sure to manage their low sharpness with skills like Protective Polish!
Status Trigger works by having all hits inflict status when successfully evading monster moves. This makes Buildup Boost incredibly potent as the randomness is removed, making all hits boosted for the duration of Status Trigger. You can get both skills in your armor sets through Qurious Armor Crafting.
