This is the Great Sword's recommended general-purpose build that employs the Sleep Element Artian weapon. If the conditions are right, the build's maximum affinity will be 100% once you hit a wound. The stamina gained from the second stamina gauge provided by "Second Wind" does not lose the "Maximum Might" effect even if this stamina is consumed. "Counterstrike" is also triggered when a blockable attack is deflected by a tackle, and "Offensive Guard" can be used to increase attack when guard is used.

This is a Great Sword Build that specializes in increasing Recovery with each skill while also generating up to 85% Affinity when attacking wounds under the right conditions. You can recover HP through "Hasten Recovery" when attacked 5 times, and through "Decimator" when you trigger Partbreaker. Therefore, even if your health is reduced to some extent when you dodge a monster's attack with Tackle, you can quickly recover provided you keep attacking, allowing you to remain in combat for longer.

If Evade is successful, your attack stat increases for about 30 seconds with Adrenaline Rush, and if you eat a Well-done Steak, you can expect another attack stat increase with Xu Wu's Vigor for about 2 minutes.

|---|---|
The best forgeable weapon for a Dragon Element Hammer build is the "Blazing Uria" since there isn't much difference between its performance and the Artian Weapon and that comes with the unique weapon skill, "Whiteflame Torrent", both good reasons to consider the weapon a solid choice overall. Its high raw Attack also makes it good as a general-purpose weapon.

Blast Element is Also Recommended
If you are proficient with Lance, the amount of attacks you can execute within a given time does not have a huge difference between whether you use Paralysis or not. If you prioritize time over comfort in hunts, you can opt to use Blast instead.

Maximum Might will not deactivate even if you consume the Stamina increased by Second Wind, making it easier to maintain Maximum Might when fighting monsters that require a lot of Stamina.

This is a recommended Gunlance build using Arch-tempered Rey Dau armor. Lord's Soul provides a constant +5% Attack Boost, making it easier to deal more damage compared to builds relying solely on Agitator Lv5. With Super Recovery I included, minor damage is passively healed over time. The build also lets you survive one powerful hit, balancing both offensive power and survivability.

This Gunlance build combines 'Hasten Recovery I' and 'Super Recovery I'. Since the Gunlance benefits from a high recovery rate with 'Hasten Recovery', maintaining offensive pressure allows for more healing compared to a build that relies on Super Recovery II alone. It's recommended for players who prefer an aggressive playstyle while actively offsetting incoming damage.

This is a highly recommended 4 Element Light Bowgun build using Arch-tempered Rey Dau armor. It focuses on 'Rapid Fire' rather than 'Burst Step' to maintain affinity via Maximum Might. In addition to providing constant Attack Up and letting you survive one instance of heavy damage through Lord's Soul, the build can also reach up to 100% Affinity when conditions like overcoming Frenzy are met.

This is a Pierce-focus Light Bowgun build that uses the Zoh Shia chest piece and 4 Gore Magala armor pieces following the recent title update. Expect to see an increase in Attack and Affinity after overcoming Frenzy with the addition of activating "Agitator" and "Weakness Exploit". In Monster Hunter Wilds, the Light Bowgun's Pierce Ammo Critical Distance is noticeably narrow, so prioritize "Ballistics" Lv3 as a weapon decoration (but if you are skilled enough to be comfortable with just Lv2, give 1 slot to Opener Jewel 1). You can opt to change the 2-slot "Evade Extender" to "Earplugs" or "Ambush".

The strongest recommended equipment for each element for the Light Bowgun after the update is a setup that uses both the Zoh Shia waist piece and 4 pieces of the Gore Magala Armor. Use Rapid Fire over Burst Step to achieve critical hits with Maximum Might. In addition to having increased Attack thanks to Black Eclipse II, you can also expect a maximum possible Affinity of 75% or more with this build. Changing Coalescence and Maximum Might to Evade Extender and Earplugs is a viable choice if you don't particularly need the former skills.
