• The armor gives the following skills:

1. Attack Up (Large): Increases attack power by a multiplier of 20
2. Detect: Boss monster is shown at start of the quest and every 10 minutes, and can be painted to show in Detail
3. Para Duration (X2): Stun times are doubled

Notes

Despite having generally bad resistance to elements besides Fire and Thunder, the Rathalos set has good defense for its level, and is a great offensive armor set. It is relatively easy to craft, and can be used until the higher levels if the hunter is skilled enough.

Gemming

Slots per Piece

• Helm: 1
• Torso: 0
• Arms: 1
• Waist: 1
• Legs: 1

Jewels

The armor has 4 slots - which you gem it for is up to you, but here's a suggestion:

• Insert 3 Psychic Jewels
• Insert 1 Paralysis Jewel

You would now have the following skills:

1. Attack Up (Large): Increases attack power by a multiplier of 20
2. Autotracker: Shows on your map a constant indication of where a large monster is (i.e. a wyvern has a mini dragon picture, a "drome" is just a blob, a Congalala is a gorilla, a Hermitaur is a crab etc); also shows how active a certain monster is (i.e. blue is calm, red is angry, grey is dead).

Remarks

• The Rathalos Armor can also be found in Lost Planet 2.
• Hunter's main appearance in Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite is a Rathalos Armored female.
