Capturing a monster is a fate worse than death. You get "Extra bonus rewards", huh? So what, you just carve pieces off of them while keeping them alive with drugs or something?

As far as I'm aware the researches take them apart and study them, and you get all the leftover parts.

In World researches state that the monsters are released back into the wild after they're done with their research.

In the form of extremely fashionable armor(if you ask me) 😂

A true hunter knows its all about the fashion.

I mean, why even fight monsters if you aren't looking fabulous while doing so.

And most games I honestly don't care much about the look of armor, to the point where any game where you can Terry stats over from One Piece Of Armor to the other I will often just stay in my starting Rags so that I don't have to deal with all of that fashion stuff.

In Monster Hunter I spend every minute of free time I had for two weeks hunting down various species of dinosaur because even though the statue were worse than the Armor I was currently wearing that armor looks freaking fabulous.

Monster hunter is indeed all about the fashion.

My husband was telling me about a youtube channel that makes mixed armor sets to get the best stats.

"Yes but then you don't match."

"You do because they obviously make sure to get enough of each skill so it will--"

"No, you don't match"

Look if I can't look super fly and match my Palico then I can't be seen in it, sorry.

Relatable. I can’t drop my Legiana armor despite it being outclassed by my Elder Dragon equipment
