As far as the "knight" look goes I much prefer Arlows armour to the guild palace set, simply because it is a lot more practical and defensive as actual armour, notably having an actual helmet rather than just some kind of weird bandana.
I really love the design of the Knight Squire Set especially for female hunters. I've been wearing it ever since i unlocked layered armor sets. I also use it for the Palico and Palamute, you just fit in perfectly with Fiorayne and the other characters.
I like mixing and matching different pieces of the various Order armors. For instance, the squire chest goes amazingly with the heavy knight arms and waist.
I literally used kaiser HR helm and the other 4 pieces of the knight squire set until endgame. With proper deco and charm it is pretty much a perfect lancing set up until you can mix and match/ min-max
I really wish there was some interchangeability between the body types and armor pieces design. I'd love to use the female Damascus chestpiece to make a knight set without a cloak as well as allowing female players to have one if not in my opinion the best chest piece for cloak that doesn't have extra fluff, just a plate chest piece with a cloak.
My personal set is, Heavy Knight Helmet Bazelgeuse Chest Goss Harag Waist Choice Armored Gloves Choice Armored Boots The chains on both the waist and chest give that extra sturdy appeal and the faint glow on the mid section really bring out the power for the chest. Since I was originally using the Pukei Lance when I made it, that's the color scheme the layered set has.
My new favorite armor look is a combination of the admiral’s and the heavy knight set. As for classic sets, my all time favorites are the Rathalos and Teostra armor sets. I just love the traditional knight look of the teostra mixed with a beast aesthetic while the rathalos armor set is a cool combination of knight and samurai.
a little bit trivia about Scorned Magnamalo set. uneven horn on the helmet is from the popular Date Masamune war helmet. even they didn't forgot the detail where Date Masamune's right eye got slashed too. so tbh, this is the only armor set that have a real references to certain historical figure in MHRise that i know. feel free to add more trivia.
I'll say that all these look great and I wanna do some mix fashion sets with some of them, but for me the best armor set is the Five Element armor set. I love rocking 4 pieces of it with the fox mask, makes me feel like a Shinto warrior defending the land from Yokai (the monsters).
Seregios, Barioth X, Tigrex X, Gore Magala, Malzeno and Guild Palace are the layered armours I cycle between. Base game Goss Harag and Magnamalo armour have also really stuck with me. Seething Bazelguese will join that rotation when he arrives.
I would like to see an feature that automatically changes between different layer armour sets you have selected and you could select "change after X hunts"
I’m very upset we didn’t get a military beret headpiece, like the Master Rank Great Jagras helmet. The Royal Guard set from Breath of the Wild is a personal favorite.
I’m almost to Master Rank 50 so I haven’t seen all the remaining armor sets but I do have my favorites thus far My favorite armor sets from sunbreak are as followed in no particular order: 1. Heavy knight (best charge blade set I’ve seen so far) 2. Gore and Shagaru Magala (both Magala armor sets are just awesome from a demonic and angelic aesthetic. 3. Lunagaron (probably my personal favorite especially since I’m working to craft the layered set) 4. Espinas (it has a small hint of a devil may cry vibe coming from its design) 5. Malzeno (I love the vampire aesthetic with this set) Honorable mentions: 1. Almudron/magmadron armor for obvious reasons 2. Wroggi because it makes you look like a gunslinger from the old west.
I've been rocking Furious Rajang chest, MR Zinogre helmet colored gold, the Orangaten belt tweaked red, and MR Magnamalo arms and legs. Might tweak those last two, but it's been great hunting as a golden warrior. Can't do damage if you don't look good!
Guild palace set but with MR bazelgeuse head. Color matched head with the fur on the chest. Anybody that has a layered/crafted guild palace set are the true badasses of Monster Hunter.
the thunder narwa armor is absolute heat take off the waist armor piece and you will look like a cross over between a super saiyan, a power ranger and a demon its so cool
I've been rocking Almudron stuff with a Malzeno waist a lot. With Pinks and Purples it glows amazing and makes me feel like a Power Ranger or VR Trooper.
You completely forget to mention the heavy knight armor. I am rocking the heavy knight layer armor with the Kamura LS darksaber. And with the right coloring it looks like a medieval version of the mandalorian. I'm loving it.
for headgear that shows part of the face like the snowshear or Damascus what I do is cover my chars face in pure black dye then put glowing red dye on them to give some sort of dark lord look
Perosnal faves: Garangolm, the chunkiest of chunky with Aelucanth X, kind of a bug robot vibe Tobi-Kadachi X, a nice warm ensemble perfect for Frost isles Guild Bard, mostly for the hat Pukei-Pukei X, for the Bloodborne vibe
I’ve been using the same layered armor set since long before sunbreak. Layered armor doesn’t mean anything to me anymore. It’s a blend of different armors that just works so well together, is minimalistic, and unique. I get a lot of compliments and questions when I play online. Definite main character vibes, I don’t think I’ll ever change it.
Know it's kinda basic but for my great sword layered armor I run Outpost Commander's set in the chest waist and feet and heavy knight helm and gloves. Like the kind of frontline commander look that will jump into the fight. And obviously rocking the Royal Order great sword for maximum deus vult.
I didnt feel like any armor spoke to me until I saw shag (hehe) magala's armor, and with the weapon layering mod the weapons just go great with it. I did change some of the pigments on the armor to be a lil more darker though.
No layered armor piece will ever top the Cohoot Mask for me. I'm literally never taking it off. On that note, I made a mixed set with Guardian chest+waist and it matched the cohoot mask really well. Same thing for Snowshear, the feathers on the shoulders really add to the cohoot mask as well, if you match their colors.
Fashion hunting is a must. Am I the only one who, when doing layered armor, try to limit myself to just 1 piece per set? Like I try to make sure every layered piece is from something different. This is something I've been doing since layered armor became a thing. Not sure why I do this.
I ended up doing this unintentionally and love the armor I've came up with.... Through MR I've only replaced one peice with it's MR upgrade and it fit the color scheme perfectly so I was welcoming to that but yes the mixed up sets always seem to have a lil more appeal to me especially seeing how they mix with one another to make the full set
capes always look cool especiall the more fluid ones cus it makes your hunter look more like they are flowing ??? idk but it makes them look better when moving around
Should have been a Top 5 Capes of Sunbreak with the rest tossed in for extra 🤣. Good recommendations though. Currently wearing: Dignified Earrings, Espinas Muscle, leather gloves, chainmaip belt and black leather legs. Got some punk rock vibes.
Hold up Guild palace is back? Oh yeah baby i didn't even know that, that was one of my favorite layered armors in MHW IB combined with the HR Nergi β helmed.
Can you layer good-looking armor over your gear? Like Magnamalo armor layered over higher stat armor? I only have access to a few Layered Armor sets atm
You want the most awesome "mwa-ha-ha I'm an evil dark lord" outfit? I use the regular MR Magnamalo helmet, Scorned Magnamalo chest and Death Stench arms, waist and legs. Switch out the Magnamalo head for the Skull Visage and you're 9/10ths of the way to being Ainz Ooal Gown from the Overlord LN/anime!
So close to MR 100, just a little further and I can have the pleasure of being having floating shoulder "blades" literally. I cant wait!! Also Im a huge fan of Seregios full armour, always a favourite of mine.
my main for sunbreak is the guild palace 100% but i hate the helm ... so i change the helm for the crown the game give you for complete all the quest in the game, so more than a knight my character looks like a king XD
Ill rock Gore Magalas armor until the end of time!
Agreed, it’s beautiful
Yes!!!!!
You and me both brother 🤝
As far as the "knight" look goes I much prefer Arlows armour to the guild palace set, simply because it is a lot more practical and defensive as actual armour, notably having an actual helmet rather than just some kind of weird bandana.
Yeap, i've been using it the longest because the cape doesn't clipped through my charge blade when unsheathe(or basically any big weapons)
It's also the go-to armor for lance/gunlance mains such as myself for lower to middle MR. Such a good set.
I really love the design of the Knight Squire Set especially for female hunters. I've been wearing it ever since i unlocked layered armor sets. I also use it for the Palico and Palamute, you just fit in perfectly with Fiorayne and the other characters.
Not to mention that hand piece with 3 guardup and lvl2 slot. I didn't take the gloves off til endgame
I like mixing and matching different pieces of the various Order armors. For instance, the squire chest goes amazingly with the heavy knight arms and waist.
I literally used kaiser HR helm and the other 4 pieces of the knight squire set until endgame. With proper deco and charm it is pretty much a perfect lancing set up until you can mix and match/ min-max
I really wish there was some interchangeability between the body types and armor pieces design.
I'd love to use the female Damascus chestpiece to make a knight set without a cloak as well as allowing female players to have one if not in my opinion the best chest piece for cloak that doesn't have extra fluff, just a plate chest piece with a cloak.
Fashion Hunting truly is going to the next Level now 🙌🏽 Sunbreak defenitely delivered on that and i'm absolutely loving it! 🤩👌🏽
Thats true, Fashion hunting is super important in Sunbreak Endgame!
My personal set is,
Heavy Knight Helmet
Bazelgeuse Chest
Goss Harag Waist
Choice Armored Gloves
Choice Armored Boots
The chains on both the waist and chest give that extra sturdy appeal and the faint glow on the mid section really bring out the power for the chest. Since I was originally using the Pukei Lance when I made it, that's the color scheme the layered set has.
My new favorite armor look is a combination of the admiral’s and the heavy knight set. As for classic sets, my all time favorites are the Rathalos and Teostra armor sets.

I love how they're adding so many capes to the game
I'll say that all these look great and I wanna do some mix fashion sets with some of them, but for me the best armor set is the Five Element armor set. I love rocking 4 pieces of it with the fox mask, makes me feel like a Shinto warrior defending the land from Yokai (the monsters).
Currently grinding my way to MR 100. At 55 so far, that Scorn layered and weapon are the only thing keeping me going.
I haven't felt burnout from a grind in a VERY long time, so I feel that. I'm around 70-ish right now. Keep it up, you've got this! 👍
Seregios, Barioth X, Tigrex X, Gore Magala, Malzeno and Guild Palace are the layered armours I cycle between.
Base game Goss Harag and Magnamalo armour have also really stuck with me.
Seething Bazelguese will join that rotation when he arrives.
Goss harag armor would be my favorite if I could change the blue
I would like to see an feature that automatically changes between different layer armour sets you have selected and you could select "change after X hunts"
Definitely gonna have to grab the scorned set for the gurren laggan vibe!
I'm gonna go with the good ol Rathian armor. Over the years I have gotten a deep appreciation for this classic
The Sunbreak amiibo armor sets are good too. I made it violet like Kazuya's color palette.
I’m very upset we didn’t get a military beret headpiece, like the Master Rank Great Jagras helmet. The Royal Guard set from Breath of the Wild is a personal favorite.
I’m almost to Master Rank 50 so I haven’t seen all the remaining armor sets but I do have my favorites thus far

yeah... really looking forward to the seething Blazeguise armor set
Currently rocking Barbarina chest and waist with damascus arms and legs. Looks really cool when combined with other pieces.
The floating swords on magnamalo armor give me major otakemaru vibes from nioh
I've been rocking Furious Rajang chest, MR Zinogre helmet colored gold, the Orangaten belt tweaked red, and MR Magnamalo arms and legs. Might tweak those last two, but it's been great hunting as a golden warrior. Can't do damage if you don't look good!
Will check it out. Female or male? ^^
@@markusgrenable Male! But now I'm curious how it'd look on women with the belly window...
Guild palace set but with MR bazelgeuse head. Color matched head with the fur on the chest.
Anybody that has a layered/crafted guild palace set are the true badasses of Monster Hunter.
the thunder narwa armor is absolute heat
take off the waist armor piece and you will look like a cross over between a super saiyan, a power ranger and a demon its so cool
I've been rocking Almudron stuff with a Malzeno waist a lot. With Pinks and Purples it glows amazing and makes me feel like a Power Ranger or VR Trooper.
LOL power ranger
My favorite armor set will always be Baggi armor lol but for MR i love Espinas armor
Sunbreak has the best fashion. Just wish admiral would give me those fashion tickets instead of those dang elgado tickets 😂
Might have to go back and do HR quests to get those...
@@phillipmorris6629 no the new layered+ tickets. So far it’s only from afflicted quests
@@ogelpeace4610 gotcha. Wasn't sure myself. Ty.
@@phillipmorris6629 yeah hopefully in the update we’ll get more ways
Hell no. Even if full set, safi awakened set alone is cooler than anything in this game. MHW is the greatest for fashion hunting post layering
Espinas waist and chest piece are really slept on. Im surprised it didnt make the list
Barbania armor has been my go to. who doesnt love a dope coat hanging off your shoulders as a cape
I rock the snowshear in black and red! Shit looks badass!!!
You completely forget to mention the heavy knight armor. I am rocking the heavy knight layer armor with the Kamura LS darksaber. And with the right coloring it looks like a medieval version of the mandalorian. I'm loving it.
my personal fav look is the Shagaru set, I love the angel of death vibes it gives.
I've been using the female MR Goss Harag armor set from the moment I could craft it.
biggest surprise was how good the Vespoid armor looked
for headgear that shows part of the face like the snowshear or Damascus what I do is cover my chars face in pure black dye then put glowing red dye on them to give some sort of dark lord look
Perosnal faves:
Garangolm, the chunkiest of chunky with
Aelucanth X, kind of a bug robot vibe
Tobi-Kadachi X, a nice warm ensemble perfect for Frost isles
Guild Bard, mostly for the hat
Pukei-Pukei X, for the Bloodborne vibe

I’m gonna be honest here, the final boss’s armour still remains my favourite set in the game
The glowing eyes, tail and clawed wings just look badass
Know it's kinda basic but for my great sword layered armor I run Outpost Commander's set in the chest waist and feet and heavy knight helm and gloves. Like the kind of frontline commander look that will jump into the fight. And obviously rocking the Royal Order great sword for maximum deus vult.
jokes on you arekkz, the best layered armor is clearly the cohoot mask
Gore Magala, Guild Palace, Espinas, Scorned Magnamalo and Bazelguese armor are my top 5 best looking armor. 😋
I'm rockin the yukumo sky set with a orange bishaten mask. Lookin like a tengu.
I have the admiral set with the 'support survey' head rewards is looking kinda 🥶
You had me at floating swords💯💯💯💯❤️❤️❤️❤️
I didnt feel like any armor spoke to me until I saw shag (hehe) magala's armor, and with the weapon layering mod the weapons just go great with it. I did change some of the pigments on the armor to be a lil more darker though.
I usually run Utushi (Visible)/Benevolent Bandages helm, Pukei Pukei chest (HR), Tetranadon (HR) gloves/waist/legs. Black pallet for both slots.
No layered armor piece will ever top the Cohoot Mask for me. I'm literally never taking it off.
On that note, I made a mixed set with Guardian chest+waist and it matched the cohoot mask really well. Same thing for Snowshear, the feathers on the shoulders really add to the cohoot mask as well, if you match their colors.
Cool picks but kinda wanted a more lower profile tacticool layered set.
The female Espinas body and waste make a cool duster coat with great highlight patterns
This video deserves a like just because you talk about Gurren Lagann.
I love your love for gore but shagarus armor is ugh just chefs kiss❤️

capes always look cool especiall the more fluid ones cus it makes your hunter look more like they are flowing ??? idk but it makes them look better when moving around
I love rocking Shadow Shades, with the rest being the Espinas set 🤘😎🤘
Yeah man. Same. You hit all points right. I love your every choice.
Really love Shadowshear set, it pairs well with SnS or DB for that assasin drip.
Should have been a Top 5 Capes of Sunbreak with the rest tossed in for extra 🤣.
Good recommendations though. Currently wearing: Dignified Earrings, Espinas Muscle, leather gloves, chainmaip belt and black leather legs. Got some punk rock vibes.
For me I use for layered>
Azure Age Hair, Azure Age Haori, Five Element Arms, Kamurai Obi, Five Element Legwear
That way I look like a elegant samurai
So this vid is just Alex loving the capes and honestly same XD.
Bazel armor is all I'll ever need. BIG armor. BIG fur. BIG cape.
Hold up Guild palace is back? Oh yeah baby i didn't even know that, that was one of my favorite layered armors in MHW IB combined with the HR Nergi β helmed.
Anyone know the specific color palette for 1:28?
Pirate set and guild palace are my favorite for female hunter! Love the Malzeno set too!
I don't really see what is so Gurren Lagann about the Scorned Magnamalo set other than maybe the helmet shape?
0:47 and 0:49 -- Anyone know what these two sets are called??
Can you layer good-looking armor over your gear? Like Magnamalo armor layered over higher stat armor? I only have access to a few Layered Armor sets atm
@@PlazDreamweaver okay awesome! I'm looking forward to that!
Sadly only after finishing the story though..
@@Vi_the_Rotten okay awesome! I had a feeling that's why I haven't unlocked that feature yet. Thank you!
Barbania is is currently my favorite armor set as it reminds me of one piece which I love.
You want the most awesome "mwa-ha-ha I'm an evil dark lord" outfit? I use the regular MR Magnamalo helmet, Scorned Magnamalo chest and Death Stench arms, waist and legs. Switch out the Magnamalo head for the Skull Visage and you're 9/10ths of the way to being Ainz Ooal Gown from the Overlord LN/anime!
So close to MR 100, just a little further and I can have the pleasure of being having floating shoulder "blades" literally. I cant wait!! Also Im a huge fan of Seregios full armour, always a favourite of mine.
I just got to MR 100,
Honestly I don't like the armor, especially those flying sword things, I wish there was a way to get rid of them
The heavy knight set is also very nice
I combine the barbania set with the brigade hat for a much cooler looking pirate outfit
snowshear set with the face glow look like the architect from Solo leveling
I like MR Bazel, but I replace the hands with HR version since the shield just looks out of place with most weapons.
Once i got the Akuma layer i just kept it on. Can't beat Akuma 😆
My layer combination :
Gore magala helm, gore braces, gore greaves
Bazelgeuse coil x
Sinister grudge garb
I like the furious rajang with reg rajang helm.
I just love the artillery set so much. The closest thing I can get to the Red Guild Knight set; for a female hunter.
Does anybody know how and where u can do the facepaint to make your face glow? I can't seem to find it anywhere.
Did they add the anime scarf from world?
Malzeno and Furious are amazing
If only sinister grudge matches with HR valstrax mail, that way you will LITERALLY become Gurren Lagann
I've honestly just stuck with the Diver set, and been pretty happy with it. Combined with the Kitsune mask for a very sleek set.
the almudron set looks a lot like terra's armor the lingering will from kingdom hearts
I still wish rise had a hud size option
It too big for me
My favourite is definitely Valstrax' MR Armor. I just wish the chest piece didn't clip that much.
Gurren lagann is probably my favorite anime
Hell even the horn is kinda busted like Gurren Laggans helmet
Wow I was expecting people to dislike the fashion for rise/sunbreak guess it's just me
Lunagaron is my go to. I feel like a power ranger lol.
my main for sunbreak is the guild palace 100% but i hate the helm ... so i change the helm for the crown the game give you for complete all the quest in the game, so more than a knight my character looks like a king XD
Barbania is soooo coool. Gives me such strong One Piece vibes and I fukken DIG it.
Current fashion look of mine be:
Zinoger
Goss harag
Snowshear
Goss harag
Gore magala.
All master rank. On a male character. Shit looks fine as hell.
What about the Malzeno armor?
Which monsters do I fight for these
Kulu ya ku is still the greatest! Unfortunatley my pirate fandom is too great to ignore that one
I just hit mr 94 and was about to boot up resident evil 5 as soon as i saw that magnamalo set shit!!! Just a littpe more grinding i got this! Lol
Fashion hunting is all that really matters. Nobody wants to look goofy killing Furious Rajang.
No one's mentioning the shield as part of the barely arms?! Or the edge lord Espinas set?
