Monster Hunter: World Armor Builder major update! Sharpness (including Handicraft) finally added!

Some of you may remember that I made a Monster Hunter: World Armor Builder early last year. I've been slowly upgrading it over time. The one big feature that was missing the whole time was sharpness. I just couldn't find a reliable way to get accurate sharpness data and so it was just missing for so long.

Well, in addition to plenty of other updates over the last 10 months, I managed to finally get accurate sharpness data from the PC game files and implement full sharpness support in to the builder. That means it shows not only the base sharpness but the total will show what the sharpness looks like with the currently selected Handicraft level as well. The only caveat to this is that I can only get the sharpness data for weapons released on PC, so currently that's everything but the AT Kulve Taroth weapons.

If you are not familiar with my Armor Builder it lets you put together full builds (weapons, armor, charm, decorations, augmentations) for all the weapon types. There's a search that will highlight any pieces in the dropdowns that have the skills you are looking for (does not work on mobile due to the way dropdowns work on mobile, sadly). It calculates your total stats including any skill bonuses. You can "store" a build's stats on the right side while you make changes to the build so you can easily compare, and you can revert back to the stored build at any time. You can also share your builds with other players by simply copy/pasting the URL. It has language support for both English and French (some of the later added stuff is not fully translated because I lost my translator, so contact me if you are interested in filling in some of the gaps in the French translations).

I have been keeping up to date with all of the weapons and armor that have been added since launch, usually putting new stuff up as soon as the info is available (release day or earlier if there are leaks) so that you can start theorycrafting right away with all of the new stuff.

I realize that it's still kind of ugly, so that's the next thing I'd really like to improve. I'm a programmer, not a graphic designer, so any suggestions are welcome. Also, the initial load is pretty long now that there are so many items (but once it's loaded it should be quick and responsive) so I'd like to try and optimize it a bit to speed up loading times.

So, try out the Armor Builder and let me know if you have any suggestions, comments, questions, or anything! This includes if you see any equipment missing or just if a stat somewhere is wrong (thank you to all the people that have contacted me already to let me know of issues!).

what about different food effects and stats with buffs from demon drugs etc?

What's the White Wind Lance?

The White Wind Lance is a new lance coming with the Anniversary Festival next week. :)

@Rathex, I've considered adding those. It wouldn't be super hard. I'll have to look up how everything stacks again to make sure I do it right. Maybe when I get some time I'll put that into options with the other buffs.
