It’s time again to dive into an overlooked stat ofMonster Hunter World. Today I will be introducing you to all thearmor limits in MHW Iceborne.
All MHW Iceborne Armor Limits
Armor Defensewill be the first value players will notice has taken a large jump when comparingIcebornearmor to baseWorldarmor. As players advance the story of Iceborne, new armor limits can be reached, with final limits being able to be reached once players gain access to armor augmentation. If you want to know more about armor augmentation be sure to check out theIceborne Augment Guidenext.
While some players overlook defense for attack, its good to know what the limits of eacharmorpiece can become. Below you will find every armor colored coded for rarity, the zenny cost, research point cost, and augmentation cost.
