Some of the most entertaining NPCs you’ll meet in the Monster Hunter series.
But of course, what’s best for you?
Far and away it is the strongest base game weapon set.
14Hidden Saber I
The natural progression would be to the Hidden Saber.
Any veteran players of Rise will tell you that Nargacuga weapons rule the meta and with good reason.
Picking a weapon to main in Monster Hunter is just as hard as the hunt itself.
Here’s when each was introduced to give you an idea of their legacy.
The Hidden Saber is again a high-affinity weapon, with pretty good sharpness to boot.
Nargacuga is going to become either your favorite or most hated monster after all these hunts.
The Julienne Blade is relatively simple.
It doesn’t come with anything fancy, no elements or big special effects.
Instead, it has decently high damage for its rank and some strong blue sharpness to boost.
Be the grim reaper you’ve dreamed of being.
Death comes for all, even monsters.
11Wyvern Blade Maple
The Wyvern Blade Maple is an interesting inclusion in the game.
It’s quite strong in raw damage, but not the strongest.
It comes with no affinity by default, and its sharpness is a decent blue, but nothing higher.
What it excels in, however, is great elemental damage.
Here are the best subspecies in the Monster Hunter series!
But the latest update has given more skills to let you be a bit more free.
9Reddnaught Blade
Crimson Glow Valstrax is a terrifying monster.
8Deepest Night
An expected entry in this collection is the Nargacuga longsword, Deepest Night.
Nargacuga weapons have something of a monopoly on the top spots of the various weapons.
Even by default, the affinity is gargantuan, with some white sharpness keeping your damage nice and high.
As such, the best places to focus this weapon are on retaining sharpness and boosting affinity even further.
7Tigrine Need
The Tigrine Need fits a wider demographic than many weapons.
It’s almost a pick-up and forget kind of weapon.
Unlike many High-Rank builds, the Tigrine Need lets you equip it and play.
No matter what, you’ll be dealing high damage.
