It depends mate,which type of hbg you want to play?
Do you like pierce ammo? spread? full on explosives? normal ammo? snipe or rambo? there is way too many styles

Depends on the ammo you want to use. Nergy for explosions/Spread 3, Jagras for Spread 2, B. Diablos for Normal 3/Pierce 2/3, Legiana for Pierce

Best to specialize in one shot type, like only pierce 3 or spread 3 or normal 3. So get either Rathalos' waiste for piercing shots, diablos' legs for normal, or lava's legs for spread (I think? I may have this in particular wrong). And Whatever other parts you want. Usually Xeno's set bonus is good for everything in general.

Take your pick:
Cluster 3 seems to be the most efficient but yknow... it's cluster bomb. Jho or Magda Gametus
You can go for full damage Griffon Bazooka with wyvern ammo and wyvernsnipe
Personally I like spread 3 from destruction's fusillade, aka a shotgun but the build struggles with large monsters and tempered elders.

Best heavy bowgun build for group play:

I highly suggest swapping the attack necklace for either crit boost for max dps (and if you go that route swap the 2 divine blessing to attack gems) or health boost. I don't actually own either necklace or I would have it in the picture.

You will want to use the Nergigante gun for this build with spread 3 ammo.

Each shot of the spread will hit for around 29 (my friend tells me there are 7 hits).
I personally like the Dark devourer from jho tree :)
3 Sluggers and you'll be constantly stunning those monsters :D

For me:
Cluster: Jho or Zorah
Piercing: Legiana
Normal: Diablo
Spread: Nergi
Wyvern + Cluster: Teostra

I find the Spare Shot from the Xeno set procs often enough (especially on cluster and sticky) that it makes a great compliment for a blast build.
