Diablos/Black Diablos armor worth it?

[Lkms19]

So... is grinding mixed diablos/black diablos and maybe rathalos mixed set worth it? It has decent elementless buff but you can get get better mixed set from elder dragons. Is it worth the grind or can i do just fine until i get to those elders? I main hammer.

as a whole; no; the 4 piece can be gotten by a l2 deco... the 2 piece is useful only with zorah weapons (its not a bonus as a weapon loses charpness as it says; its a bonus for lower levels of sharpness; though it doesnt offset the natrual sharpness multiplier)

some pieces are pretty good and can be put into builds though; like the nero gloves (focus+l2+l1) and base helm (crit draw gimmicks)

Do hammer need focus? If yes the nero brace b has a good slot i use it sometimes but vambrace a or b is still top notch though. Elementless jewel not even rare if your gunning for 4 set incase your not far enough its viable alternative

all chargable weapons can use focus
gs charge, hammer charge, bow charge etc

Blos helm B, and gaunlents I think and Blos greaves B. The rest are crap. I don't remember making any black blos armours.

There's an interesting build called a Melee HBG build, that combo's with Blos' 2 piece set bonus. You use a Griffon Bazooka and the setup has a high chance of KO.

DBs and LS also use it.

The only thing good about Diablo set is that you can get non-elemental boost. However you can also get non-elenemtal boost with a 2-slot gem, so the armor itself is not that great in general.

Diablo weapons, on the other side, is one of the stronger weapons available in game.

Short answer: No.

There are a lot of better options for every conceivable build you can think of.

Diablos set is pretty good for fast attacking weapons like db or glaive when you don't have protective polish deco. It quickly outlives it's usefulness once you get the polish though since the armor set is ugly for the most part, and doesn't match with anything else.

im not a big hammerbro, but my understanding is; not really; it does benefit from it, but not enough to warrant it over other options in most situations (as opposed to say GS and swaxe, which make good use out of a point or two... though for the latter i prefer power prolonger for a similar purpose)
