| First topic message reminder :
So while we already have a thread for what sets you are currently wearing or using, we don't have a help thread for people looking to make sets. Back in 3U some of our more experienced members could either figure out on their own how to make a set, or use Athena (is that even updated yet? or something similar now?) effectively. So here's a thread for getting help since we can't just pester the pros on Twitch and Youtube, like Melf, Gaijin, and Iceman.
So yeah, let the requesting begin! I'll start things off!
Is it possible for me to get a set with: Honed Blade, Edge Lore, Rodeo God, and either Partbreaker or Evasion or Bombardier (I know there are crazy stuffs to get in high level guild quests like gems you normally can't, I don't mind the farming part). Is this possible? | |

(snip)
Could I trouble you for a god tier Lance Guard Set, Lance Evasion set (with super evasion / attack skills), and a mix of both like initially requested? I like to use a mix of Gravios X and Kushala X. I'm typing this from memory, so it might not be exact. Gravios X Helm (nothing - I currently have Defense 1, can be Evasion 1) Kushala X Chest (Handicraft Jewel 2) Gravios X Braces (Ironwall Jewel 2) Kushala X Faulds (Artisan Jewel 3) Gravios X Greaves (Ironwall Jewel 2) Talisman: Evasion+6 OOO (Evasion Jewel 2 + Evasion Jewel 1) Should give Guard+2, Evade+2 and Sharp+1, with Defense Up S as an added bonus. It also looks a little odd (smooth torso, bulky and bumpy extremities and that hairdo), but it works great. Unfortunately, there aren't enough slots to warrant Evade Dist. I often use an Evade Distance talisman (+8 OO) for mobility's sake, It's highly Talisman-dependent, and I don't Evade-Lance often (I made this because of Sharpness+1), but it's good within those parameters. You can also use a two/three-slot weapon to make the set even more customizable - for instance, you could upgrade Defense Up S to Defense Up M. | |

But I need like a god tier Evasion lance set. Something insane like Evasion+3, Guard+2, Constitution (if possible cause yay reduce stamina drain), and even Evade Distance (though it can put you away from the spot you were hitting so this skill is maybe least desirable). I basically want to be able to evade and guard lance depending on the situation without changing armor.
Oh and maybe Sharp+1 if it turns out that some skills aren't as needed like Constitution or evade distance.
What you got in mind Crystalis?
EDIT: Actually in hindsight that might be bad cause i might lose some attack skills so if possible Crystalis (or anyone else though Crysta is bossing up the thread and being super helpful) could I trouble you for a god tier Lance Guard Set, Lance Evasion set (with super evasion / attack skills), and a mix of both like initially requested? Haven't really lanced much beyond Tri, but I'll see what I can come up with. Constitution is probably a harder skill to get considering the Guard skills penalize it, but then again, Mega Dash Juices exist, so I'll make that a lower priority, if you don't mind. Also, your relevant talismans would help me a lot. - Phazon Xenomorph wrote:

Given what I've seen Crystalis make and come up with, you can probably get Honed Blade instead of Sharp+1, plus everything else, real good at making armor sets. Maybe even an extra skill on-top of that. I tend to dislike when people ask for Sharpness +1 and Razor Sharp together, the two skills penalize each other in terms of Decorations (rest in peace my good friend Hallowed Jhen Mohran), so I usually just default to Honed Blade over Sharpness +1, even though it takes more to devote to (still worth imo). If you could give me your list of relevant talismans, it would be much appreciated. On the other hand, if you have an Evasion talisman, you can just simply look at post #12 on the first page and use that same set, replacing the Mounting jewels with Evasion ones, giving Honed Blade, Razor Sharp, Evasion +2 (if your talisman isn't crappy), and Latent Power +1. | |

It'll take some time for me to get my relevant Talismans posted, though if something insane is needed for my sets don't worry, I can farm it up (having a goal keeps g rank from being stale as you pursue something hard to get). Also I'm interested to see what you come up with, I forgot about the Uka Uka U set from Gaijin Hunter, the mix for at least Guard (possibly evasion) lancing sounds like something out of Frontier (early Frontier anyways, not the current Frontier that is skill overload with 2000+ defense on armor and 10+ skills, with several being combo skills). Looks ugly as shit though. | |

Nargacuga Helm X Jumping Jewel 1
Kushala Cista X Jumping Jewel 2
Kushala Grip X 2 Slots
Kushala Cocoon X Artisan Jewel 3
Nargacuga Greaves X No Slots
Talisman (Evasion +5, Talisman Skill +10 OOO) 3 Slots
Evasion +3 Evade Extender Sharpness +1 Talisman Skill Desired [+2 O jewel] Skill (e.g. Speed Sharpener, Mounting Master)
Additional weapon slots can be swapped with less-slot/worse-point talismans and whatnot. Having no Evasion talisman requires the Arms and Talisman (or weapon) to use 2 Evasion Jewel 2 instead.
Guard Lancer Set - Spoiler:
Gravios Helm X 1 Slot

Talisman (Guard +8, Talisman Skill +? OO) Defense Jewel 2
Guard +2 Defense Up (M) Guard Boost Sharpness +1 Talisman Skill (2 extra armor slots + possible weapon slots + possible third talisman slot to finish)
The armor probably looks ugly as fuck though.

So far I've found everything there to be true for MH4U. And I've seen people with Attack +14, Thunder Attack +14, 000 talismans. So it seems as though you can mix pretty much any of the skills. Makes me wonder if Handicraft +7, Attack +14, 000 would be possible, since they are all possible under the "Enduring Charm" category. | |

| Are you guys even looking at my posts? Particularly my answer to your hybrid lance request, Xeno.
Not a request, but a relevant post and update to my Gravios/Kushala set posted above. Again, I'm typing from memory, so correct me if I'm wrong:
2-slot weapon (Evasion Jewel 2) Gravios Helm X (nothing necessary) Kushala Cista X (Handicraft Jewel 2) Gravios Braces X (Guard Jewel 2) Kushala Wrap X (Artisan Jewel 3) Gravios Greaves X (Guard Jewel 2)
Skills: Guard+2, Sharpness+1, Evasion+1, Defense Up S.
This is a really, really good hybrid-Lancing set, with a Talisman fully available to further upgrade your Defense, Evasion or even get a completely different skill if possible, such as Rationer or Evade Extender. However, I have an Evasion +6 OOO talisman, which allows me to get Evasion+3. Evasion+3 is 18 frames of invulnerability. Chained backhops are 18 frames each, allowing for a total of 54 frames (nearly 2 seconds straight) of nigh-invulnerability. | |

I have an Evasion+6 OOO talisman (totaled up to +10) which gives me dat Evade +3. It can also work with a Talisman that gives you a total of +9 Evasion, just use an Evasion Jewel 1 on the Helm. Main downside is the lack of Constitution or the additional support skills that Uka-Uka-U has (which I should make at some point), but it makes up for that for being able to attack pretty much all day. | |

I'll disagree with this. Tbh I found Evasion+1 to be even more broken than in previous games. I can't imagine how easy the game is with Evasion+3. For me it breaks the game completely but yeah you're sacryficing a lot of points for it. So I guess it's a fair trade... Today I managed to evade hop through Rajang thunderbeam without a problem and "only" with evasion+1. Jho/Apex Jho/Savage became pushover with evasion+1. Every roar is rollable now with evasion+1, even blos family. I got a feeling they buff evasion+1 a lot in comparision to 3U. Everything is a lot easier now. So I found everything above Evasion+1 to be waste of slots. Just opinion. My lance set: Guard+2 Sharpness+1 Evasion+1 Steady Hand Mind's Eye is actually necessary on many monsters now. You can work around it with many weapons like swax, gs, ls etc. but if your attacks got deflected with lance you'll get punished. Same with GL. | |

| I'll disagree with you.
Evasion = 0.2s (6 frames) +1 = 0.33s (10 frames) +2 = 0.4s (12 frames) +3 = 0.6s (18 frames)
+1 is handy to have, +2 is useless by comparison, and +3 allows you to do some ridiculously game-breaking stuff, doing things that should never be possible. Such as rolling through a Diablos charge, not the proper way forwards into it, but side to side. It can let you be very recklessly offensive with proper use, which certainly increases your damage output.
And keep in mind for lances they can chain 3 hops together, which last 18 frames each for a total of 54 frames, or almost 2 seconds of invincibility. That's disgustingly ridiculous and I love it.
Also with an Evasion tali it doesn't actually take up enough space to dedicate armor pieces for, just slots should be fine. | |

Doesn't change anything I said above, +3 breakes the game just like Kelbi Bow did in 3U. There's nothing skill base with playing with +3, just relying on broken skill/tactic. I can play as agressive with lance as you. The difference is I can't roll/hop through thing which normally I shouldn't like inside Gravios beam. The question is why should I in the first place? Playing reckless is something I'm trying to aviod in this game whole time. +3 definately creates some bad habbits you'll feel naked without it. And yeah evasion IS expensive in this game. Try making my set with +3 with your godly tali.
Lance 3x hop invisibility will be removed just like auto-guard GL in P3rd beacause it's clearly overlooked and too broken to be legit.
inb4 elitist and not fun to play with | |

| Hey again, Antari. Continuing the discussion from Gaijinhunter's Evasion+ video, I see. - Evasion+ Discussion:
I'll agree that Evasion+3 is broken and crutchy as hell - to the point where I simply won't use it on anything that isn't a Lance. Well, maybe I might use it on Bowguns, but it's just not as practical. I'm so used to delaying and timing my evasions to the point where Evasion+3 is a waste of skill points and a Talisman. Besides, if you don't like to use Mega Dash Juice often, Evade+3 comes with its own downside of being a major Stamina burn - which is the main Achilles' Heel in my hybrid lancing build. I do actually hope Evasion+3 gets nerfed in MH5, but in the meantime, I am going to use and abuse the hell out of it on Lance. It's not like this is a PvP environment. If it were, I would pretty much outright refrain from playing until the issue got fixed.
I will also disagree about Evasion+2 being useless over +1 - two frames allows for a bit more human error when timing rolls, especially when you're learning to use Evasion+ properly. Unless it's Dual Swords, because Demon Dashes are weird like that.
Let's try to get this back on topic, shall we? How about a Gunner set that gives me: Peak Performance Evade Extender (I have a +8 OO talisman for this) Normal S Up Constitution+2 Quick Sheath (I have a +7 talisman) I wouldn't mind leaving Peak Performance or Constitution +2 out. I'm planning to use this on the Diablos HBG, which IIRC can crouchfire Normal S Levels 2 and 3. Not sure if it has slots, but if it does, feel free to use them. | |

Unfortunately, this full armor set has all of the skills you want, but just not enough slots, because neither your HBG nor your tali have any. Mixing would just make it harder to get anything, but you do get Recoil Down as a bonus. If you could get a Quick Sheathe +7 OO, that'd complete the set. | |

| I'd agree with Crystalis about one thing, Evasion+2 is usless. It's either you have +1 or +3. Some people like to have +3 and I respect their choice.
Gaijinhunter is great MH Player and I respect his work for the community but he's just a human and he makes mistakes. And I gotta say he's deadly wrong on some things. Like when he claim that Stylish Bombing require Evasion+3 to work. This is very misleading for people who just starts playing the series with MH4U.
But back on topic. There're few really easy to make sets when it comes to HBG. Evade Extender got nerfed pretty badly unfortunately with introduction of Fleet Feet which is Evade Extender+Peak Performance.
Easy to make sets for start:
Skills:
Normal Up/Rapid up Fleet Feet Weakness Exploit Evade+1:
Armor Parts:
Seregios X Cap / Diablos Z Ace/Queen Narga X / Diablos Z Torso Up Ace/Queen
Talisman: Normal Up+4 (or OOO)
=================
Skills:
Pierce Up Recoil Down+1 Fleet Feet, Weakness Exploit
Armor Parts:
Torso Up Ace/Queen Mutsu/Amagi Shin (Jhen) Torso Up Diablos X
Talisman: Pierce Up+2 OO
=====================
Skills:
Ruthlessness (Weakness Exploit+Critical Eye+2) Evade dist up Normal Up Load up
Armor Parts:
Seregios Cap Normal S up +4 gem Kaiser X torso Evade dist+3 gem Torso Up Gloves EX Rathalos waist Evade dist+1, 2 x normal s up gem Torso Up boots
No charm required

Mixing would just make it harder to get anything, but you do get Recoil Down as a bonus. If you could get a Quick Sheathe +7 OO, that'd complete the set. Can the Diablos HBG shoot Normal level 3 with minimal recoil without Recoil Down +1? I haven't tried it, but I want to say that you'd need Recoil Down +1 to make shooting level 3 worth it. Then again, it's not pierce or pellet. So I may be completely wrong about it. If I am, then here's I set I threw together: Head: Regios X (Normal Up +4) Chest: Sororal/Ace (Constitution +3) Arms: Black Belt Waist: Regios X (Constitution +3, Constitution +1) Legs: Sororal/Ace (Sheathing +3, Empty Slot) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Talisman: Sheathing +7 Gives Skills: Fleet Feet (Evade Extender + Peak Performance) Normal/Rapid Up Constitution +2 Quick Sheath This set also has one slot leftover. Since this set comes with +5 points in Recoil already, it wouldn't be that hard to gem it in with a slightly better talisman. | |
