Balahara Alpha FAQ

What skills does Balahara α armor give?

Balahara α gives Evade Extender 3 (max), Geologist 3 (max), Evade Window 2 and Stamina Surge 2 across its 5 pieces. The group bonus Scaling Prowess (Master Mounter) needs 3 pieces from any of the 2 sets that share it.

How do you craft Balahara α armor?

Forging the full Balahara α set costs 17,500 z and Balahara Carapace ×6, Balahara Scale+ ×6, Balahara Skull+ ×4, Balahara Certificate S ×3, Balahara Black Pearl ×1 and Balahara Tail ×1 plus 2 more materials. Hunt Balahara and Uth Duna in high rank for the monster parts; the rest is mined, gathered or bought. Each piece is forged separately at the Smithy under High Rank.

What is the difference between Balahara α and Balahara β?

Balahara α carries 10 skill levels and 4 decoration slots (1-1-1-1); Balahara β carries 5 skill levels and 10 slots (2-2-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1). Defense (190→390), resistances, materials and the set bonus are identical, and α and β pieces mix freely towards the bonus. Pick α pieces for the skills they carry, β pieces where you would rather slot decorations of your own.
