Set Bonuses in MHW

Skills in Monster Hunter World (MHW) are buffs and abilities given to you by your armorcharms, and decorations. Every piece of Equipment that you have gives skill points to certain skills, and some even subtract skill points. There are three basic types of skills: basic skills, toggle skills, and Set Bonuses. For basic skills, the more points you have the stronger the skill gets. Toggle skills require only one point as they are on or off. Set bonuses are special skills that you get for having a matching set of armor.

Set bonuses are special skills activated when hunters equip 2 or more pieces of a specific set. Alpha and Beta sets share the same bonuses, so one can equip 1 Anja Alpha and 1 Anja Beta set and get the same bonus. All sets that share the same bonus name will have the same behavior, so the Diablos Alpha and Diablos Nero Beta can be mix-matches for the desired bonus.
