Safi'Jiiva Awakened Weapons Guide - Monster Hunter World Iceborne 

Dang, really?!

@@krazytreRTM Yup that's how I got my bow cuz I use greatsword to hunt Safi but I still wanted to get the bow

Yep 100%

He did say that you need to make sure to wear the weapon you want

thats wonderful news

or like Xenojiiva growing to become Safijiiva

Think of them as seals that "seal" the demonic power within the weapon that one wields. When unsheath, the seals rip off as a sign of demonic power unleashing from the weapon, hence why the weapons look very devilish in nature.

Question how does it take until the weapon fully awakens?

@@tionneray8262 At awakening lvl 23 is when a weapon changes appearance.

I did exactly that and now I’m on around 300 stores with my shatterblade

what is the star purpose for the essence?

It only took you five sieges to get it????? I hit stores potential 99 and never saw it, damn you want sensor

Good, and I want you to know I don't like you, on a personal level. Or anyone else that runs long sword for that matter. (in case that wasn't obvious, I'm joking, play what you like, have fun, just don't bring clusters to my hunts cuz theu are terrible for group play)

Good. And I want you to know that I’m crying on my bed. I’ve never been bullied this much in my life. All jokes aside, yeah, it’s all fun and games lol. xD

@@rurikhan Don't worry, we can tell you were actually deadly serious.

Lol, I can play and love all weapons but i continually yell curse words at almost all weapons people use. Gunlance wyvern blast, longsword swipes, arrows and sticky to the back of head and hammer tosses to the air (which can be useful sometimes). They all suck for team play but it's awesome. I really hate insect glaive cuz my buddy runs it 100% of hunts. I was forced to craft a gunlance build with flinch free and I pay him back wit the wayvern blast. He gets so mad that he screamed, "fucking warn me next time!" I said, hows it feel bro?" You need to warn me every 3seconds with your whoopin stick.

I'm not a fan of this. It's like Kulve all over again, in the older MH games all weapons were viable because there was a point to using them based on their elements and ailments. Now everyone is going to run around with the same looking weapons again, at least the glow tells you what element they are using. But this is exactly what most people complained about, this is basically the ore/bone weapons with fur or scales on it. They look the same, sure they glow, but I'm not a moth, I prefer more variety and interesting designs.

@@theblackbaron4119 Then if you have played the game you understand viability is not simply having the strongest weapon. MH is a cooperative game and the point is winning and not carting. Thus any build that allows you to do that whilst looking good and giving you fun is "Viable"

Sorry dude I tried to be faster, but learning and farming the stuff to make this video took time :(

@@rurikhan You misunderstand, I was being facetious. I appreciated every moment. I miss out on the Taroth because Kiren made me rage quit. BUT because of your video, I know what to do. Thank you again.

Savescumming you mean.

A Ghost Without a Past do you know why I’m stuck at 19

@@onem1nd135 Yes, as pointed out in the video, the awakening level is determined by the stars each awakened skill has.

🙏

@@LevelBOfficial it opens in axe mode

Save scumming sounds like a fast way to a corrupt save file imo.

@@maliwan516 How is opening and closing the game going to corrupt your save data?

@@Henrirocha11 Just an opinion, I mean I never turn off a computer without doing a proper shut down, just applying that logic with a game that requires save points.

@@maliwan516 you Just need to save once and Go back to the main menu to restart not turn off the whole thing, ita actually Very safe

@@maliwan516 its actually the opposite, you save to the cloud a perfect copy of your current save which the game already does by itself. then you turn it off and do all your shenanigans locally on a console, if you are satisfied with results you turn saving to the cloud back on and continue. if not you switch off the game just as if you were playing offline. it has exactly the same chances (if not lower) of corrupting a savefile as playing a normal way. the only thing is a moral side of it because technically its abusing a saving system

I'm 99% sure you get by completing all the optional quests from low rank and high rank. (you'll also need to capture one of each monster to get their arena quests and do those)

Yeah you have to finish all optional quests

Ok I'm just trying to figur out what monster I have not captureded that is the hard part I see one for blue rath but can't get to activate vate I wish someone would do a more in depth vifeo

Yes.

If it doesn’t show on ur crafting list it means you haven’t gotten the materials for the ice region the guiding lands yet

@@rurikhan i know you said slotting a set essence only gives 1 point towards it but can you stack the same essence multiple times to get the full set bonus from just the weapon?

@@thunderborn3231 no you cant stack them

@@j_ohnny3661 are you sure or have you just not seen the roll for a second slot after the first

Not really I've already gotten all the weapons I want maxed now I just fight it for fun or to help people I don't even look at the weapons I get I just take the first three and just turned it into fuel

@@djmack6474 Thats kool, very fortunate. For the rest of us though. The RNG is real

That feature was not available when I recorded that video, it was added later.

@@rurikhan Ahh, interesting. I have only played for a few weeks so I was not aware of that.

Hammer, hunting horn, Sticky bowgun, gunlance, switchaxe zsd spam.

That Zionium Crystal was a pain to get.

@@azazel166 i got lucky with the Zionium Crystals, i got like 6 of em, cant say the same with the horns and wings though...

@@laintme7857 Ι always got one when we partially broke the head.

@@laintme7857 I got 2 mantles and i don't know how to get wings and horns lol

@@nickxx. good luck I broke both wings and still only got one wing drop

No.

I assume it's the hot springs set? (forgot the name)

no, it counts as a single piece. you still need to wear three other velkhana armor pieces to activate frostcraft.

Or at least elder dragons

The base GL is Normal 5, and each shelling change only goes to II, being Normal II (to Normal 7), or Wide/Long II (to Wide/Long 6, the first switching the type then upgrading)

Not realy for every point besides hzd lbg. For sticky damage cap makes rajang better for speedruns and guyding lands(it still has more raw).The new gun is good when you dont stack fortify though. Elemental lbg are upgrade for rf element. RF does less damage then current single shot meta .Again , you get better comphy sets (rf solves ammo issues compared to single shot) .Basically new guns are not broken they just give some more alternatives (which is big by itself)

@@shadowkhan422 aquashot is very nice and way better than beo. Aquashot with artillery 5 and tss is better than rajang there are already Videos for it

It’s a great time for bowguns and bows too.

It's for the two piece set bonus, slinger expert, gives me more slinger ammo which influences how long wyvernsteak blast lasts.

@DawnWatch I would take you up on that but I'm a ps4 player 😔

@@mr.stealyourgrill1190 add me. Psn : Jarezze Me and my greatsword will come thru and carry

You have to know your build that binds well with your weapon. Depends on what you want. Use all your deco slots with defense gems and handicraft, does not leave you much for damage dealing skills like agitator and crit eye along with crit boost and weakness exploit. Throw sharpness and defense on the your weapon and the sky is the limit for other skills. Its hunters with this mindset or lack of knowledge that cant kill a valkana in 20min bro.

Star count = awakened level, and from my experience (let me repeat that, from my experience, as in I'm not claiming this is a fact) a higher awakening level tends to roll higher rarity abilities.

@@rurikhan yes, you're correct about that. not opinion. fact. BUT the skill perk. the whole... tigrex or zinogre or [insert monster] perk. from what i got, from what you were saying. it sounded like we should go with the 5 star skill perk over a 3 star skill perk even if that set bonus is actively being used in our build. for example, i like using vaal set bonus. if i get that on my weapon. it's a rare 4, but rare 5 is ishvalda set bonus. from what i got out of this video, you were saying. in order to get a better roll or increase my weapon level. i should forgo my vaal set bonus for ishvalda set bonus. not because i would actually incorporate that into my build but instead because it somehow would give me better rolls? or increase my level? this seems wrong... to me at least. but please don't think i'm attacking you. i mean no offense when saying this. merely trying to understand or clarify so that i CAN understand this if i did miss something.

I did 24.

Damn. Lol

You can get attack 5 easier if you dont store. Just take attack at any level and you will get upgrades almost each time .Way faster then rolling to att5 from start

I stored 20 something times to get status increase 5 I wish this guide existed before I wasted my life

Yea. I realized you need one level of a skill, in order to get the next tier

No

I already saw zorah essence but I don't Need it xD

You can augment sharpness onto your gs, sharpness 4 x2 and 1 handicraft charm make purple.

@@sassybeste2181 hhmm okay I'll try that out thank you i have another poison greatsword so I'll test this out.

I went full attack because with mt I don't need sharpness and affinity from crit eye and wax

Break head and wings.

Confirmed. I have it.

They definitely do. My buddy went nuts and dropped like 3 days worth of dracolite into it. Because it's that good.

I got it too

Got it on my first run, lol

The first one I got.
