Long Sword, Dual Blades, Switch Axe: whatever bladed weapon you've grown to love over the course of Monster Hunter: World's campaign, chances are, you've found yourself frustrated by the frequency in which a battle has had to be put on hold for a hasty session of sharpening on the field.

Of all the weapon types, World's bladed variety dull quicker than the rest, but not if you're sporting the oni-inspired Odogaron set. It already wins out in the aesthetics department, but the crimson-coloured armour made from the overgrown canine's remains not only removes (at max level) all but one sharpening cycle with the whetstone but completely negates sharpness degradation for a full minute after sharpening.

Combine those sought after buffs with bonuses to draw and sheathing actions, and Odogaron's set is inarguably top-tier for anyone not using a blunt instrument or ranged weapon.
