What are armor "sets"?

Is it better to get all the same kind of armor than random mix and match?

also how do skillz work.

Armour sets are sets of different armour (obviously) and they are crafted from the drops of monsters, so you need 4 Rathalos Tails for a Rathalos Armour set, for example. Having one whole set looks better, but I'm not sure if there's a real boost from it.

And the skills just go up and down and affect your performance depending on the armour you have equipped. So a Rathalos armour would help Heat Resistance, but may make you weaker to water, whilst a Lagiacrus armour set would help protect against thunder attacks and help you breathe underwater for longer etc.


There are other factors too, like Armor item bonuses that stack and gems you put into your armor that improves things like sta drain, or swimming speed, or resistence to wind blow or dragon roar etc. You can make a pure STR armor or pure resistive armor for different situations, my perfonal fav is Barroth armor because you can run forever in that thing lol.
