HAMMER BUILDS - MONSTER HUNTER RISE VERSION 2.0

 

Hammer

 



Changes from the Update

With the 2.0 update we are now able to craft more decorations which makes our sets a little easier to make without the need for God talismans.

 

 

Weapons

For weapons the best hammer is the Tigrex since it has so much raw and has some white sharpness.

For these builds you’ll only need a talisman with 2 slots or one with a combination of the 2 slot decorations or slots.

Skill Theory

So of these skills I’ve split them into 3 groups. Damage, Quality of Life, and extra.


So the Tigrex Hammer comes with -20% affinity so we are going to need to cancel that out to take advantage of crit boost, which is a HUGE DPS increase. Some people are advocating for weakness exploit but unless you have god charms crit eye is what I would go for. Then we are able to squeeze in 4 points of attack, then max out crit boost.

 

The next skills are are to help you and your team get more damage. We are maxing out slugger and stamina thief. Slugger will help you get even more K.O.’s since you should be focusing the head and stamina thief will help you exhaust the monster more so it’ll just stand there and take damage. You can switch out the Stamina jewels for more protective polish or flinch free since they are level 1 decorations as well.

 

Last are the Extra skills. If you have a better talisman I would try to max out attack then for WEX so you can do more damage.
