Mizutsune Alpha FAQ

What skills does Mizutsune α armor give?

Mizutsune α gives Burst 5 (max), Constitution 3, Evade Extender 3 (max), Aquatic/Oilsilt Mobility 2 (max), Evade Window 2 and Peak Performance 1 across its 5 pieces. Its set bonus Mizutsune's Prowess unlocks Bubbly Dance I at 2 pieces and Bubbly Dance II at 4 pieces; 5 of its pieces carry the bonus, so 4 pieces of this set alone reach Bubbly Dance II. The group bonus Fortifying Pelt (Fortify) needs 3 pieces from any of the 1 sets that share it.

How do you craft Mizutsune α armor?

Forging the full Mizutsune α set costs 25,000 z and Mizutsune Scale+ ×15, Mizutsune Purplefur+ ×11, Bubblefoam+ ×10, Mizutsune Fin+ ×8, Mizutsune Claw+ ×6 and Mizutsune Certificate S ×4 plus 4 more materials. Hunt Mizutsune, Uth Duna and Balahara 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 Mizutsune α and Mizutsune β?

Mizutsune α carries 16 skill levels and 6 decoration slots (3-2-1-1-1-1); Mizutsune β carries 11 skill levels and 9 slots (3-3-3-3-2-2-2-2-1). Defense (240→400), 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.
