Loading ...Weapon Calculator MkII
The Weapon Calculator MHF2 Edition
Instructions:
Choose the monster, your materials availability and the weapon line you’re interested in. If you want you can also select various armor skills you intend on wearing.
Press Submit and you will see the weak spot and the preferable weapons based on their damage output against this particular wyvern in descending order (best one first).
How this works (please read):
This is all about finding an average hit. The code takes each weapon’s possible attacks and calculates them in realistic numbers. This means for example with Longswords that it takes some slices, some stabs, some spirit-gauged attacks, meshes them all together and calculates the average hit. In the case of LS 176 different attacks are used.
The printed damage number is this average hit. If you would take the health of a monster and divide it by this average number, the result would be the number of hits needed with this particular weapon to kill the given monster.
The higher the average hit, the less attacks are needed and the better the weapon is.
New (02/04/2008): Powercharm and -talon are added to the equation if you select HR3-6.
Weakspot:
Average Damage: Name
Some remarks:
- The damage displayed is only an estimation, you cannot use it for stagger calculation. Its use is to show the margin between weapons.
- If you select HR3-6, Powercharm and -talon are automatically added to the equation.
- Status ailments are being considered this time. Paralyzed monsters take 10% more damage so that can effect the damage output. Poisoned monsters receive 120 to 350 points of damage per poisoned state, so I figured that in too. Both ailments give now a marginal boost to the damage output.
- Sharpness is fully figured in.
- Affinity is fully figured in. Changed:Affinity now plays a larger role, especially negative affinity on heavy hitting weapons (GS, Hammer). Expect Tigrex weapons to be worse.
- Armor skill like Reckless Abandon and Sharpness+ are not considered and may change the resuls.
- Hunting Horn notes are not considered as permanent damage increasing buffs.
- Gravios and Basarios open stomachs are considered as a potential additional damage spot.
- Gun Chariot is degraded to green sharpness since it only establishes 8 pokes before going green.
- If you find any error or omission, feel free to comment it right away. I probably have some HRs wrong and probably some attack spots too.

Luna’s Roar fixed. I don’t know if I understand your suggestion on Rex Blast??
Oh, what I meant was if you were to fight any monster and your choice was either Rex Blast or Imperial Gunlance go for the Imperial. Because the Rex Blast blue sharpness sucks(low amount) so then you have affinity -30 which makes it worse IMO than the Imperial. Just what I think, I suppose its higher ranked because of the spread type shot?
I just made a damage calculator for this game (based on DS31′s formula)

Would you be interested in putting this up on your site?
yeh but we need to pay to use the site that ur file is on =\
woops my mistake but there is no medium attack up for HH
and what does the *2 mean?
Fresh you have Silver Rook as having 150 dragon element, it should be 250 instead.
It would be interesting to see the effects of artisan calculated in with all these weapons.
But that would take a lot of work, and I’m too lazy to test out artisan on all the final level weapons, let alone make all of them.
Whoops…
my mistake about the med attack up.
about the “x2″, I think I’ve heard somewhere that HH buffs stack once.
anyway:
More buffs than necesarry > fewer buffs than necesarry.
New version here with some fixes:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=SSLH02G2
your new one still has HH sttack up medium, and yes sttack is what it says
HH dont have medium attack up!
Will you add Bulldrome to the monsters list?
1. I’ve fixed that problem once and for all now. No medium attack up from HH. And no typos as far as I know
2. I cant find Bulldrome in the hitzone charts of Deathslayers guide, so bulldrome will probably not be added
Soory for double post

I hope it’s right now
Why go through all the fuss of trying to use the calculator off megaupload when theres one here staring you in the face.

1. it’s offline
2. It can calculate stagger limits.
That calculator isn’t necessarily meant to determine what weapon does the most damage, but rather precision
Devta Serpentblade(450/450 Poison,Blue)
No lance comes with 450 raw attack, 437 or 460.
Skies of Crimson lists the lance with 368 raw and 450 poison

Oh okies.
how do you get sword fan gabas you have it as a long sword
yeh arnis one get exact damage for attacks
thanks arni im loving it
add us on msn, im (minimudge92@hotmail[dot]com)
uhh, fresh, can u add sharpness+1 to your calculator.
the devil slicer have white sharpness in sharpness+1
true devil slicer, sorry for double post
Taken from a Rathian HR4-6 Query:
1 Akantor Katana(1200,Green) (~81)
2 Divine Slasher(1104,Blue) (~75)
3 Smolder Dragonsword(816/520 Dragon,Blue) (~75) 4 Gaelic Flame(1056,Blue) (~75)
I was just wondering how Gaelic Flame and Divine Slasher do exactly the same average damage when their sharpness’ are the same, but their Damages are so disparate.
Although I do see why Smolder Dragonsword does the same; the first one just doesn’t make sense; unless it turns out that it’s just ’cause they both had 75.[something] and it just got roudned down.
@slain: Affinity on Gaelic Flame.
Plesioth with a Hammer for HR 4-6. I looked this up and i do not see the Sanctioned Gunhammer (832atk, 500fire). When you look up khezu for the same you get sanctioned Gunhammer as 4th. Even though they both have -4 to fire. I was also seeing that in many cases 100 or raw damage to any weapon outweighs 150 200 or even 300 more with fire damage. Why?
Ex: Khezu, Hr 4-6, Hammer, Lunastra crown(936atk, 370fire) overpowers Sanctioned Gunhammer(832atk, 500fire) even though the damage difference is about 100 in favor of the Crown, but 130 in favor of the Gunhammer.
This Shows that damage is way better than elemental .Why?
I’m currently more dead than alive. I cannot sit before the screen for more than 2 minutes, then pain knocks me out.
I have some serious issues with my back right now, that is why I don’t post and respond currently.
I’m reading everything though.
fresh, get a laptop.
And I wish you’ll be better soon
@hendrik: Sharpness +1 will probably not happen since every weapon behaves differently when this skill is activated.
@forte999: Sword Fan Gabas is a MHP2 only weapon, from downloadable quest.
@arni: I will host your calculator as soon as I’m able to spend more time before the screen.
@Codani Mo: Please read up the Melee Damage FAQ to get insight into the mechanics.
Fixes: Devta Serpentblade
Hey fresh welcome back. Better now?
I was just leaving a post wondering in the “some remarks” list it doesn’t mention that Gunlances have the shelling figured in. ‘Could’ this be added in future because I find shelling a big part of using a Gunlance and could effect the list greatly.
Thanks.
Oh found a fault. Tigrex Gunlance has white sharpness not blue
.
If u consider war basher as weapon with green sharpness u should consider akantor katana as weapon with yellow sharpness becouse the amount of blue(war basher) and green (akantor katana) is the same. So in both cases u can rely on their top sharpness unless u wanna sharpnen every few hits…
I’ll amend the sharpness values of many weapons soon. You will be noticed.
So fresh, any word on Gunlance shelling being added in to the equation.
Will ponder it.
Thanks.
New mistake: Blizzard Gunlance has 150 ICE element damage; where you have it listed as Water.
Was testing it on Green Plesioth, Big Slugger isn’t on the list, even though with 460 Raw attack (Which I’m sure far outweighs 150 Ice damage against Green plesioth) And all that poison seems to more damage… I’ll have to check the FAQ.
Scratch that last comment, Blizzard Gunlance has been proven quite emphatically stronger.
Bizzard Gunlance corrected. Fixed sharpness values of Hammers and Horns (miniscule blue and green is degraded, added some white ones).
Complete results as a scrollable list.
Fixed sharpness values for SnS and DS (notably Golden Falchion / Corpse Blades demoted to green).
Fixed sharpness values for GS/LS and Lance/GL.
good work fresh that list will be helpful im sure but i think that akantor katana shouldn’t have green sharp
Um… How do I scroll down the list?
All I get is a nearly uninterpretable block of text.
Ooh! New Error!
HR4-6 Hammers Vs. Green Plesioth; On of the results is “Tigrex Hammer”.
A) I think this has been confused with the Tigrex horn, upgraded from the Striped Dragonga
B) If it has, it’s not a hammer.
Scratch that, I Didn’t know there was a Tigrx hammer.
Turns out there is O_o.
Scratch that, I Didn’t know there was a Tigrex hammer.
Turns out there is O_o.
The Tigrex Gunlance still says blue sharpness. It is white
.
Two shells or four hits with Tigrex Gunlance and its blue. I’ll keep it that way.
OK. I like the new list list format by the way, it’s great.
you got the golden falchion’s sharpness wrong: it’s blue, not green
Anyway, great work guys!!!
This sucks i was killing black gravios with sakura recorder.
If u click on Black gravios, HR 1-3, Hunting Horn
and the top 1 is sakura recorder and i died.
Affinity now plays a larger role, especially negative affinity on heavy hitting weapons (GS, Hammer). Expect Tigrex weapons to be worse.
Golden Falchion: It’s has miniscule blue, therefore I consider it green.
zichu having top weapon doesn’t have to mean u r gonna win this battle:P (there are some other things required)
there is a prob for me i cant access the damage calculator.It says required some download, can any1 help please?
