This is a versatile and recommended strongest equipment using the Great Sword's Artian weapon. The weapon's bonus focuses on increasing Attack, and when the monster is enraged, the Wounds Attack Boost will result in a maximum Affinity of 100%. The Great Sword doesn't consume Sharpness when using Perfect Guard, so you can further increase Attack with 'Offensive Guard', and when inflicting Sleep, aim for massive damage with 'True Charged Slash.'

This is a 5-Element Equipment setup for the Charge Blade using an Artian weapon. Since it primarily utilizes Power Axe Mode, it focuses on boosting base Attack and Element values while increasing Affinity through skills. To activate 'Critical Element,' a High Affinity build is prioritized, reaching 85% with just 'Weakness Exploit' and 'Maximum Might.' With the addition of 'Agitator' and 'Antivirus,' Affinity exceeds 100%.

However, since there is not much difference between the crafted weapons 'Perkonis Clairbow' and 'Fulgurbow Guardiana,' the priority for crafting a Thunder Artian Bow is not as high as for other elements.

When conditions are met, the maximum Affinity reaches 92%. With Constitution Lv5 and Stamina Surge Lv3 active, stamina management is made easier. Since the coating is Power Coating, be sure to fight at close to mid-rangebe sure to fight at close to mid-range.

This is the recommended strongest Bow equipment for the Ice element, featuring an Artian bow. The Ice Element Artian Bow is recommended because it has Piercing Coating, which is not available on crafted Ice Element Bows. Piercing Coating increases the number of hits from Dragon Piercer, so use Dragon Piercer as a finisher when your stamina is nearly depleted during a combo.

When conditions are met, the maximum Affinity reaches 92%. With Constitution Lv5 and Stamina Surge Lv3 active, stamina management is made easier.

This is the recommended strongest equipment for a non-elemental build using an Artian bow, with a maximum Affinity of 95%. If you find it difficult to craft all five Elemental Artian Bows, it is recommended to create this as a versatile bow for general use. Once crafted, this Bow weapon allows you to use Paralysis Coating, enabling you to fight while applying Paralysis.

This is an equipment setup for the Artian Heavy Bowgun using Flaming Ammo. Even when conditions are optimal, the maximum Affinity caps at 75%, so to ensure stable damage without relying on critical hits, Attack is boosted with bonuses. While the Reinforcement Bonus can be adjusted to increase Affinity instead of Attack, make sure to at least get Capacity Boost x2.
