Favorite Sets?

Just curious to know what everyone's favorite/OP sets are to use for their hunts.

For me:

Great Sword: I'm in love with my Sharp+1, Crit Draw, Focus, Rock Steady/Speed Sheathe sets. GS has always been my favorite weapon so I go for some of the best sets xD

Long Sword: I haven't made any mixed sets but right now I use full Grand Yamato gemmed for Focus, Rock Steady, Razor Sharp, Speed Sharpening, and Mind's Eye. SHO MNE SKILLZ.

Hammer: Haven't made a lot of hammers yet, but so far I'm rockin a Weakness Exploit, Focus, AuM, and Rock Steady set. First set I made for my hammers, I absouletly love it, working on some alts.

Dual Blades: I got a bunch of weapons, but no dedicated set. Right now I'm using full Nether gemmed for Razor Sharp. Looking forward to making a real good DS set soon with some Element Attack Up.

Pierce: Rock Steady, Critical Eye+3, Recoil Down+1, Pierce Up. I love using this set on Miralis, Plesi, and Lagia. Flinchtopia right here.

Normal: AuM, Evade Extender, Normal Up, and Weakness Exploit. This is my all around set for almost any monster, if i can find a better talisman I can gem in for AuL.

Pellet: Pellet Up, Evade Extender, Recoil Down+1, Weakness Exploit. Pretty much everything a good pellet set needs, and probably the most ideal weapon to bring to a blademaster only room (no sarcasm)

LBG: Three sets: 1) Full Hallowed gemmed for AuL, Bonus Shot, Health+50, and Element Attack Up. 2) And my all around LBG elemental set gemmed for Bonus Shot, Element Attack Up, Evade Extender, AuS. 3) My first LBG thunder set I made, Thunder Attack +2, Bonus Shot, Reload Speed+1, Evasion+1. Considering making and ADR+2 LBG set for the lolz.

Status Gunner: My boom boom trap set. Recoil+2, Reload Speed+2, Trapmaster, Bombardier. I use Gods Archipelago with this one, nothing like grouping up with a friend of mine with a ditto set, sleep bombing, para, and cragfests. After awhile, blademasters rage cuz of so many booms.

Also have a Status Attack+1, Load up, Bonus Shot, Recoil Down+1 set I use with Kettle LBG. I really only used it in Four Point Formation and some Ala Speed Runs.

And my most recent Adrenaline+2, Challenger+2, Bombardier, Sharpness+1 set i use with Brachy Hammer to Speed Run some monsters with some of my local friends.

Well, these are generally most of my sets I use. You don't have to list all of your sets xD

Well I really don't know much about skills but I like the Rath armor, P.Luddy armor and Worggi armor. I felt like those helped me out in being useful for everything instead of focusing on an specific skill or monster.
Then again, I'm not a skill expert.

I decided I liked the look of the Bushido, so here's a fun set that does a decent job maximizing the output. I'm sure there's better, but this gets a lot out of it:

Bushido Awakened!:

Also fun: Challenger+2, Sharpness+1, RockSteady/HGE for the double monster arena quests in HR8 (like Hard Hitting Lineup):

Challenger+2, Sharpness+1,HGE:

Challenger+2, Sharpness+1, Rock Steady:

That Handicraft +5/1slot talisman has been uber-useful.

I run out of place for new sets... why they make only 24 slots...

Favourite set hmm, i guess it will be tie - my GS Punish Draw, Crit Draw, Rock Steady, Focus set with Merak's Asterism and GS Crit Draw, Sharpness+1, Focus, Rock Steady with S. Zinogre GS (probably my fav GS in game for its design).

Because of limited place i had to make few general sets with Honed Blade. For GL, Lance, SnS - Honed Blade, Guard+1, Evade+1 and for Hammer, Swax, LS, DS - Honed Blade, Focus, Evade+1. Nothing special, just for general use with everything. I'm also thinking about makin Honed Blade, Awaken set for few weapons. Got also many specific sets for speedruns, status gunning etc.

I feel you on the few slots for sets lol

Right now in HR I have full Wroggi armour, taking out Defence Down with a +3 Defence talisman, and gemming in Speed Sharpening. Final skills look like this:

Shakalaka Rally
Speed Eating +1
Speed Sharpening
Razor Sharp
Negate Poison

I use it with Dual Swords, I think it's pretty nice for where I'm up to... (just unlocked 8* village)

eclipse bow- no slots
narga z cap- evasion jewel 2
zinogre x vest-charger jewel 3
wroggi x guards-forceshot jewel 1
lagi x coat-forceshot jewel 3
lagi x leggings-charger jewel 1, tenderizer jewel 1

ends up giving:

Good general purpose bow set. I also have a few variants that give load up/eva+1 with the rest of the skills, but I've no need because I like the Eclipse bow ^.^

Wow. Could you post the sets for these? They look pretty tasty.

Hammer set needs a 1 slot weapon
Rath Soul Helm
Nether Mail
nether Vambraces
Vangis Coil
Grand Hyuga Hakama (G rank jhen)
edgemaster+3 stam rec+6

GL set doesn't require a weapon slot
barrage earring
nether mail
nether vambraces
nether coil
ura greaves Z
edgemaster+3 stam rec+6

HH set doesnt require a weapon slot
Narga Helm X
Narga Mail X
Narga Vambraces X
Narga Coil X

His HH set can also be made with a Handicraft+3 OOO tali as well. Replace waist and legs with Vangis Coil and Legs with any Torso Up armor. Needs a 1 slot weapon though. Can gem in either Horn Maestro or Speed Sharpening. Unless you got a boss handicraft talisman like haruno ;)

For hunts, I like to switch between Gold Rathian and Dire Miralis (mostly Gold Rath due to good Dragon stats), though I always make sure to have Attack Up (L) now. I use the Reaver "Calamity" as my weapon unless the quest monster is weak against an element that I have a good long sword for.

For range (which I rarely do), my bow is the Great Kelbi Deershot and my armor's the Gigginox X set, all made under my younger brother's recommendation, since he wanted to "cheese kill" the Abyssal by having both of us using this same equipment.

My favorite set right now is my midnight Aeternum set

Attack up L
Rock Steady
Razor Sharp
Weakness Exploit
