One thing to note is that if you increase the slots, you can also stack the same augmentation for less cost. Example, on the Melting Grasp, it has up to a total of 5 slots when slot upgraded. You can then augment Attack Boost (3) + another Attack boost which now costs 2.

Iceborne is very nice, a great update, but gotta say is very disappointing to see the weapons still not looking as awesome as they use to be in older titles. The team spend more time in the house customization than weapons design lol, i rather pick weapons costumization and have a tiny house than the contrary.
Same. I actually lost the motivation to play because of this, though. Sounds like maybe it's a bit much, but I felt really disheartened to see 90% of all weapons looking so incredibly bad.
@@ronansilverknight8218 If you're lost for words that simply means you're unable to understand someone else's perspective, also you seem to completely misunderstand what I said to begin with. Saying I don't play for the gameplay is putting words into my mouth. I never claimed such a thing. I simply value the weapon designs a lot, and having had unique weapon designs for pretty much ALL of the MH franchise, only to lose them in the most recent game is disheartening, especially since the whole concept of "crafting awesome weapons" is a major motivation to me for playing the game. Seriously though, what you're doing is simply jumping to conclusions based on your own views. I'm glad you're fine with the designs though, but please respect the people who genuinely dislike this change. If I were to pull the same bullshit rhetoric out on you that you just did to me, it would be something along the lines of "lmao you only play to kill monsters with ugly iron weapons. Muh realism, hurr durr can't appreciate something good-looking when he sees it". Saying stuff like that is an absolute waste of time & life, both for you and me.

Arekkz you got it all wrong, the bar below the name of the weapon is for extra slot 1 upgrade and not custom mod upgrade, also custom mod goes beyond level 2 but no footage of it is shown yet.
Armagadon643 Seriously!? So hours of farming for nothing. Literally just got a heroes blade streamstone for my Legiana sword and shield. Should I just save it then? Will I be able to use it on the final form?

what you said about custom upgrades being limited seems wrong. The "Level" you point at to prove your point didn't go up by one when you did the Girros Upgrade.
Lancers got the bone too when they didn't bring the sexiness of the Brachydios design over and instead gave us the shitty ass Pukei-Pukei feather/bone weapon overlay instead
All the nargacuga weapons look lole dogshit, which is sad because as a new player to the series I'm confused on why old monsters are being brought back if their designs are trash. I use gunlance and I cant imagine how bland some other weapons must look.
So this makes the Augments easier than before! No more Tempered Elder Dragons, just grinding and grinding materials, and I have the perfect set for these operations, no matter how low that equip's rank is. :P
Do not let the boring ass bone/metal weapons become the new standard. Let them know it's NOT ok for Iceborne, and especially not ok for future MH titles.
yup, the same feeling here. really miss the previous MH games because of the LOOK/DESIGN of the weapon. not saying that the MHW is bad game, not at all. i played MH since MH 1 in PS2, longshot till MH Gen on 3DS Nintendo. and i get excited each and every title of MH games because of the thought of new monster, features/mechanics, and WEAPONS & ARMORS from The monsters itself. and every time my expectation is blown away by the evolution of weapons/armors design of each games. But then when i noticed some of the weapon design in MHW, it came to the point of "WTH with this design, bone sword with little bit skin attached ??". i know that the developers are aiming for a great game-play, but pls, make the little boy in me get hype again every time i saw monster weapons or armors design, and aiming to build EVERY, SINGLE ONE OF THE EQUIPMENT just for mere aesthetic reason. sorry for rambling on your video @arekkzz, but as one of your subs, i believe you can deliver our message to them (Capcom team). Last word, keep on Arekzz !. Great content !.
Man, I wish they could at east make a statement about this. It just doesn't make any sense. Those Glavenus GS are an absolute disappointment. WHY? JUST WHY?
I really hope more people are outspoken about this. They wanna give the new monsters shitty iron/bone weapon skins? Fine, w/e, I hate them. But taking already-established weapon models and reducing them to the same generic TRASH, is unacceptable. If it had to do with time, they should've had the art team work more on weapons and less on gimmicky house decorations. "Oh, look at all the pretty animals you can catch, and you can make your home look *so* unique!" "Oh yeah, cool... i definitely will utilize this for maybe 30 minutes and never touch it again. Meanwhile my weapon looks like shit. Thanks!"
Sometimes it’s just hard to find a mix since some monsters don’t fit a certain weapon type. For example, making a great sword for the Rathalos is probably way easier than making something like a bow and arrow for the Glavenus. I know monsters have existing weapons from old games, but they probably didn’t have enough time to implement them, or maybe they just didn’t want to have them in for some reason. I really don’t think it’s fair for people to say “oh, they just don’t care” which is clearly untrue. They’ve packed so much content into Iceborne, and though I do wish some of the weapons were a bit more creative, I can’t understand people saying that Capcom doesn’t care. Also, keep in mind that the team working on Iceborne is different than the team that worked on previous games.
@goose....they already have models for all the monsters. They could literally “copy & paste” from the handheld versions. No excuse for Brachy’s LS to look like that
@@jasonenglish8789 Different graphic engine and platform so they cannot be directly transferred to the game however I do agree that established weapon designs should stay the way they are
I kinda wish iceborne would give us a better reason to grind Tempered monster beside just decoration (which i think is really stupid). I wish it'd be more like MHGU where a weapon would branch into 2 different paths, either normal or hyper (or in this case, tempered) weapon. Tempered monsters will give a unique and specific item for each monster and that item can be used to upgrade tempered weapons. It could mean tempered weapon would have higher raw but lower sharpness, or high sharpness but low elementals. while normal monster weapon would be more balanced etc. So we'd have more choice, either balanced weapon or specialized weapon. Not just grinding the same tempered over and over hoping for the blessing of RNGesus
Wow. A whole 1% affinity and my already bland-looking iron hammer has some stupid Girros skin on it now. Thanks, Capcom for apparently thinking this was worth putting in the game.
Well for starters you shouldn't be using an iron hammer nor augmenting affinty on it. You should be using Acidic Glav hammer with either Attack or Health augments
@@ember-evergarden I was using the Iron Hammer as an example to point out how worthless this "Custom Upgrade" system is, not the damn weapon augments. And I didn't ask for advice on how to augment anything.
@@ember-evergarden they still wasted time on this rather than implementing transmog. So many awesome armors nobody will wear. And your reasoning is just a shitty excuse.
What sucks is I have no idea what materials I need to augment my weapon. I wish they told you what materials were needed as those icons are used universally for many monster parts. Plus the guiding lands still doesn’t make sense to me.
Does modding a weapon into another one take up the same level slot for making another slot for the augments? Like you showed the CB with 3 slots, then can create another slot (4th) but it takes up a weapon level, so does combining weapons take up the same weapon level slots?
First I thought my volume was down. Then I closed my app. Afterwards I thought, “Maybe there’s no sound?” Skipped ahead a few seconds and got a blast of sound. Hahaha
End of the day i was hoping for more rewards to the endgame than slight weapon buffing and decos again. This is honestly just the same as World in terms of what you're actually aiming for. Sure, the new map is cool, but the system isn't really better than tempers were in World. It's just more random and obfuscated. Honestly, bring back 4Us endgame and a variation of the relic system that gives you a bit more control over what rewards you want
i personally think that there should have been a custom option to change the blade design so the glavenus blaze has the blaze design, but if you could customize it to be the normal buster blade, i recon that would have been cooler that way it is still a GLAVENUS weapon, y'kniw? not a Pukie-Pukie weapon calling itself a Glavenus weapon
I really hoped that the Custom Augmentations would alter the weapon's appearance too. I say this because, for probably the umpteenth time, Namielle's s&s is visual trash. If it was one of the Iron Ore variants then i would have been ok.
honestly, even if its not as big of a visual change as expected, its nice to know that those weapons get something extra that the unique looking ones dont
It's better than the old system, plus turning my pukei sword into a coral pukei sword is gonna look cool. I'm gonna able to tweak my sword just enough with health regen, more poison, and some defense, to really polish my current build.
thanks for the informative video! i am playing MHW on PC and am trying to prepare all the various weapons before iceborne goes live on PC. i was wondering how do old augmentations transfer over to this new system? For e.g. if i have 2 health augments on my Wyvern Blade Holly (which is the last Rathian LS available in MHW). If i were to upgrade this to the gold rathian LS in MHWI, will i automatically carry over the health augments i already have?
Something I'm having a hard time finding an answer for is if divine blessing stacks/stacks independently with defense augment's mini divine blessing. Do you get 2 separate dice rolls at damage reduction?
I don't have Iceborne yet, I'm PC only, but checking the footage when you tried to explain the custom mods for the Kurogane as an example, I think you are wrong with how you showcased what the "limit amount" for it is. Unless ofc going even further than what you were able to show fills up the 2nd level "square" on the level section, it seems that you can simply progress through custom mods until you reach a separate maximum that has nothing to do with the Level of the weapon, which seemed to be exclusive only from increasing the amount of slots for the other type of augments.
That's my impression of it as well, especially since the first level box is already filled in before he even puts on a custom upgrade. If it really had a limit of two custom upgrades then that would also be almost worthless because of how little you actually gain from them.
The val hazak charge blade can get the odagaron look. I have mine currently custom upgrade lv4 with 2 element upgrades. I can go to 5 but I ran out of materials xd
Shadow Wolf At this point, I’m certain it’s a resource issue. They’ve gone on record saying they were trying to get more unique models in the game, but you have to remember, this is a new engine, everything has to be built from scratch. Personally I’m surprised by how many we ended up getting.
*QUESTIONS RELATED TO WEAPON AUGMENTATION:* Im still in base game, so, If I augment a weapon and then buy Iceborne, and I upgrade the augmented weapon, ¿Do that weapon keeps the augment?
@@idiocracy9020 thank you for answering the most important questions bout augmenting. I dont give a fuck if we can augment them after icebonre I wanted to know why tier 8 weapons still had augment slots, assuming that they kept the augment when they got upgraded. Capcom needs to explain shit better if they want to keep this large new fanbase they've accumulated from World
I literally just forged the Consummate Katana (DevilJho Rarity 12 LS) and I wanted to know how many slots does it have. I haven’t unlocked all the Elder Dragons yet so I still a way to go before I’m at post-game
Can you do that custom change to armor though to change its appearance. Because I remember icebourne we were suppose to get all armors as a layered option and I haven’t seen it yet
Thanks as always, this does however miss the info of what happened with our already upgraded weapons, like if i already had 3 health augments on a weapon, what is the state of that weapon when i start iceborne?
*Laughs in master rank* your high rank augments don’t transfer over to master rank...or more so I mean when you upgrade them to those higher rarities the weapon loses the augment slot. For example in the rathalos longsword tree the rarity 8 wyvern blade “Indigo” has 1 augmentation slot and when it is upgraded to rarity 10 “Indigo”+ it loses that slot. Since rarity 12 is master rank endgame that’s probably when you’ll get the master rank version of augment slots. Either that or rarity 11...
Oh, thanks guys. That's sucks though, so there really is no point in further upgrading my weapons in the months until Iceborne is released on PC. They really didn't plan this well (for this feature at least).
@@wearevenom4121 lol I was hinting that if a monster goes to sleep they will be one shorted. and the emojis are the monster like kirin nargacuga rajang ect.
So does this make the base game augment materials useless?? I was thinking about molding them into warped feystones but I dont wanna get rid of them if I'm going to need them still
I keep seeing this popping up and I'll say it here, there's no transmog. Google "transmog dream is dead" and it'll take you to a twitch clip where Team Darkside talks about it.
can i still unlock augments the old way? meaning it'll only augment "HR weapons"?, or now, is it only after beating icebourne? i need help with how to unlock augmenting.
@@UmTalDeUmPH hmm I was farmed a lot of Nergi's Gem for Augment Weapon in Iceborne but there no need Nergi's Gem anymore for Augment Health Regen. Thank you for your information.
I’ve seen people put stuff like Nargacuga essence on a weapon through augmentation. NOOOOO idea how they’ve done it, but then they get to have 3 Nargacuga and 3 Zorah for an absolute sticky chaos bomber. If anyone could tell me how you get that augmentation I’d name my first child after you
may i ask a question? if your previous weapon for ex. GL royal burst has been augmented with 2 health regen then you upgraded it further then does that augment will stack with the new end game augmentations??? im really confuse cause i have been upgrading some of my weapons and not augmenting them by rarity6,7,8.. sorry for my but english haha
Shinji Dimasacat They remove the augments and refund you the mats used for them. Basically, the Iceborne augment system replaces and overrides the base games system. Also the weapon streamstones can now be used as materials for a bew tier of feystone ritual at the elder melder since their original purpose has been discontinued.

Great vid Arekkz! I'm looking forward to what build I can create with this info!
Was hoping for the lightsaber esque GS to make a return
Hey arekz, I was hoping if you could tell me what materials needed for health regen augmentation?
I still haven't figured out how to unlock augmenting in iceborn can only do the rarity 8 stuff.
When you beat iceborne did you go WOAH! THERE IT IS! Lol
Hey Arekkz, I know it wouldn't be optimal, but can you put this kind of augment to the high rank kulve weapons?
honestly, even if its not as big of a visual change as expected, its nice to know that those weapons get something extra that the unique looking ones dont
It's better than the old system, plus turning my pukei sword into a coral pukei sword is gonna look cool.
I'm gonna able to tweak my sword just enough with health regen, more poison, and some defense, to really polish my current build.
Arekkz you could make a video about the pendants?
Could you make a video about farming for jewels like handicraft and stun resistance?
thanks for the informative video! i am playing MHW on PC and am trying to prepare all the various weapons before iceborne goes live on PC. i was wondering how do old augmentations transfer over to this new system? For e.g. if i have 2 health augments on my Wyvern Blade Holly (which is the last Rathian LS available in MHW). If i were to upgrade this to the gold rathian LS in MHWI, will i automatically carry over the health augments i already have?
did you find out ?
I always hated the augment feature to be honest. I missed the old custom features in the past games
It's basically just Honing from MH4U but with less options
@@AziSlays interesting opinion
Something I'm having a hard time finding an answer for is if divine blessing stacks/stacks independently with defense augment's mini divine blessing. Do you get 2 separate dice rolls at damage reduction?
I don't have Iceborne yet, I'm PC only, but checking the footage when you tried to explain the custom mods for the Kurogane as an example, I think you are wrong with how you showcased what the "limit amount" for it is. Unless ofc going even further than what you were able to show fills up the 2nd level "square" on the level section, it seems that you can simply progress through custom mods until you reach a separate maximum that has nothing to do with the Level of the weapon, which seemed to be exclusive only from increasing the amount of slots for the other type of augments.
That's my impression of it as well, especially since the first level box is already filled in before he even puts on a custom upgrade.
If it really had a limit of two custom upgrades then that would also be almost worthless because of how little you actually gain from them.
I think you should just reupload this video. Aside from the muted givaway a lot of the info is wrong.
Kibido like what?
Are you gonna make a vid on pendants?
The YT subtitles tell me this is a video about MHW "Iceporn".
Could you explain the steamworks?
I’m sad they didn’t bring all returning monsters weapons same as in previous games
The val hazak charge blade can get the odagaron look. I have mine currently custom upgrade lv4 with 2 element upgrades. I can go to 5 but I ran out of materials xd
I would like them to explain why the bone treatment for some weapons, but glavenaus had design so what they got lazy?
Shadow Wolf At this point, I’m certain it’s a resource issue. They’ve gone on record saying they were trying to get more unique models in the game, but you have to remember, this is a new engine, everything has to be built from scratch. Personally I’m surprised by how many we ended up getting.
Thank you Arekkz. Very informative.
This will be helpful for my gear set in the near future.
Idk why, but with this content in Monster Hunter.
I don't think, if there will be another monster hunter game. This one has the package
That level indication you showed in the video explaining how many custom upgrades you can do doesn't have anything to do with custom upgrades.
*QUESTIONS RELATED TO WEAPON AUGMENTATION:*
Im still in base game, so, If I augment a weapon and then buy Iceborne, and I upgrade the augmented weapon, ¿Do that weapon keeps the augment?
You cannot. Once the weapon has upgrades remaining you lose all augments.
@@idiocracy9020 thank you for answering the most important questions bout augmenting.
I dont give a fuck if we can augment them after icebonre I wanted to know why tier 8 weapons still had augment slots, assuming that they kept the augment when they got upgraded.
Capcom needs to explain shit better if they want to keep this large new fanbase they've accumulated from World
I literally just forged the Consummate Katana (DevilJho Rarity 12 LS) and I wanted to know how many slots does it have. I haven’t unlocked all the Elder Dragons yet so I still a way to go before I’m at post-game
Can you do that custom change to armor though to change its appearance. Because I remember icebourne we were suppose to get all armors as a layered option and I haven’t seen it yet
Elemental hammers now? Or raw still
Should i stop farming streamstones then?
Yeah, unfortunately. There's a new version of them after you complete the storyline boss.
What's the special assintment I need to clear to unlock the layered weapons ?
Whats your build in this video? I need a good hammer build
My build might actually be better with the elemental/status effect increases rather than health Regen.
What level do you have to be to unlock augmenting
bruh, complete the story first
The custom upgrades are practically pure aesthetics, because 1% affinity up is nothing, 5 plus damage of non true damage on a GS is nothing too.
Which is why there's more than 2 upgrade levels.
Thanks as always, this does however miss the info of what happened with our already upgraded weapons, like if i already had 3 health augments on a weapon, what is the state of that weapon when i start iceborne?
augments get removed when you upgrade a weapon, you do get the materials back though.
*Laughs in master rank* your high rank augments don’t transfer over to master rank...or more so I mean when you upgrade them to those higher rarities the weapon loses the augment slot. For example in the rathalos longsword tree the rarity 8 wyvern blade “Indigo” has 1 augmentation slot and when it is upgraded to rarity 10 “Indigo”+ it loses that slot. Since rarity 12 is master rank endgame that’s probably when you’ll get the master rank version of augment slots. Either that or rarity 11...
Oh, thanks guys. That's sucks though, so there really is no point in further upgrading my weapons in the months until Iceborne is released on PC. They really didn't plan this well (for this feature at least).
@@DonLopeAguirre Your augments will still be there when you start Iceborne, but they get removed if you upgrade a weapon to a MR level.
Given everything we got in iceborne I actually don’t care about the weapons look as much now
as a wise man once said, a small price to pay for salvation
still doesn't show what happens when we try to custom upgrade a weapon that already has monster parts on it.
What are the material needed for the healing augmentation on radiant flow (shara ls)?
THE ULTIMATE HITTING GREAT SWORDD!!!!! SCREEEEEEEEEEE
monsters in world:👀🦄🦍🐕🦇
Run For Your Liiiiiffeee and never go to sleep!!!
........what?
@@wearevenom4121 lol I was hinting that if a monster goes to sleep they will be one shorted. and the emojis are the monster like kirin nargacuga rajang ect.
So does this make the base game augment materials useless?? I was thinking about molding them into warped feystones but I dont wanna get rid of them if I'm going to need them still
I keep seeing this popping up and I'll say it here, there's no transmog. Google "transmog dream is dead" and it'll take you to a twitch clip where Team Darkside talks about it.
This is truly amazing.
I can't find the augmentation in the regular MHW anymore?
That's not how that "Level" works. There are 5 levels to Custom Upgrades. The level you showed is still the Level for the previous screen.
My ears are bleeding, I cranked the sound to max
What about previous augments from base game applied and then upgraded to master rank. Do they stay when you get to this end game augment system?
You get a full cash & material refund on base game augmented weapons when you upgrade them in Iceborne.
can i still unlock augments the old way? meaning it'll only augment "HR weapons"?, or now, is it only after beating icebourne? i need help with how to unlock augmenting.
Give away info is muted
Oh you too, I thought it was my speaker that's broken.
So... We don't need a Gleaming Streamstone and Monster Gem to Augment Health Regen?
Nope, just gotta farm some parts on the monsters at the new endgame
@@UmTalDeUmPH hmm I was farmed a lot of Nergi's Gem for Augment Weapon in Iceborne but there no need Nergi's Gem anymore for Augment Health Regen. Thank you for your information.
I thought my headset was broken at the beginning
Where can I find a list of materials needed for health regen?
Correct me if I'm wrong, you cannot augment the acidic Glavenous CB right? I just finished the story, have the augment requirements but still nothing.
Lol
I’ve seen people put stuff like Nargacuga essence on a weapon through augmentation. NOOOOO idea how they’ve done it, but then they get to have 3 Nargacuga and 3 Zorah for an absolute sticky chaos bomber. If anyone could tell me how you get that augmentation I’d name my first child after you
i need to see a video with weapon tree images and items to get maybe where or how to get them the best
is there a quest i have to do to unlock augment for iceborn? cus i can't seem to augment my weapons from IB
Us pc users still have to wait for so long :(
How does the glavenus gunlance look like? I hope they didn't change the look :(
Bone GLance with Glavenus scales stapled on it
If you upgrade a weapon from high rank to master rank that was previously augmented do you get your stream stones back?
You get the streamstones, monster parts & zenny back. A full refund.
@@marvthereddevil5418 HOREEEE SHIIIIIIIIIITTTT!!! thanks for the heads up!
Best weapon to get early on?
Arekkz just pumpin out vids after vids OuO)b
More monsters are going to be added, so maybe they will branch off the of lower rarity weapon trees that currently look like shite?
may i ask a question? if your previous weapon for ex. GL royal burst has been augmented with 2 health regen then you upgraded it further then does that augment will stack with the new end game augmentations??? im really confuse cause i have been upgrading some of my weapons and not augmenting them by rarity6,7,8.. sorry for my but english haha
Shinji Dimasacat They remove the augments and refund you the mats used for them. Basically, the Iceborne augment system replaces and overrides the base games system. Also the weapon streamstones can now be used as materials for a bew tier of feystone ritual at the elder melder since their original purpose has been discontinued.
At what MR did you unlock them? I already MR43, and been grinding in guiding land for a while
Augments unlock at HR 50 since World, I believe.
Thanks, I just realized that I already unlock it, it looks different than the earlier augment mayve that's why I'm a bit confused.
Can you check if the kelbi bow is in the game please
Can you stack high rank and master rank weapons
A video on forging layered armor could be usefull
This video was incredibelly usefull, it's really cool to see how all of this works
