High Rank Armor List: Alpha and Beta Sets – Monster Hunter World
Once you’ve completed the Zorah Magdaros questline (ends after A Colossal Task), you will gain access to High Rank expeditions and quests to complete. These activities pit you against tougher monsters which means better loot. This better loot can be used to craft high tier weapons and armor sets. These new additions can be found at the Smithy, where they appear under the new High Rank tab. Below you will find our High Rank armor list which is basically all end game armor. Note: β pieces have Decorations Slots and different visual appearance.
