Kestodon Armor Question

[Shrapnel Effect]

I can't seem to find much in the way of a full armor set for Kestodon gear, Is it just limited to the arm guards?

[Sid Icarus]

Correct, there are only kestodon arm guards. Just like there are only gajau legs.

[Zamus]

Yes, there are few armors that are limited to a single piece.

[Shrapnel Effect]

Thanks guys.

I had the same issue. I was like lets farm those dino's. Then I was done. Returned to the Workshop. Only armguards. I thought perhaps I need to kill some more for the armor to unlock or so.

That's a good question considering Hornetaur has a full armor for example.

Only a few small monsters have a full set. This is most likely since the armor skill system had an overhaul compared to the old games.

Now it only takes one piece of armor to get an entire passive effect, so you stretch it out with uneccessary grapgics and models for database entries that no one will use because they are garbage?

In the older games each armor piece tended to give +1 or +2 to an armor skill AND -1 or -2 to another. However, you usually needed a total point value of 10 to actually get the effect of said armor skill. So equipping someting with Crit +2 didn't actually give you anything, you needed to do some calcualtion so that your armor pieces together added upp to 10 or more Crit for the bonus to trigger. This is also why we hunters has such an awesome upper hand to the monsters in World.
