HR41+ Max DPS Frenzy Burst Sword & Shield

Gear Choices

For our Verdoloto we'll be going with Dragon element, but this build works perfectly fine with Raw Damage Paralysis or any other element Artian you want. If using another element besides Dragon, Simply swap the Dragon Attack in your Weapon Jewels for the corresponding Elemental Attack, and if going for a Raw Paralysis Weapon instead, replace them with Handicraft minors.
In both cases go full Attack for the parts themselves, then 3 Attack/2 Sharpness Reinforcements for Elemental Weapons, and 4 Attack/1 Sharpness for Raw Weapons.
In both cases use Critical Jewel III in the third socket for 3/5 Critical Boost to go along with your 3/3 Offensive Guard, which is one of the largest attack boosts in the game with a very generous window for activation when guarding. 15% Attack Last's 12 Seconds after a successful guard.

If you do not have an Artian Weapon yet, then the Jäger-Ankh is a great substitute in the meantime socketed with Critical Jewel II & Critical Jewel for 3/5 Critical Boost and Guardian/Dragon Jwl for 3/3 Offensive Guard which is a massive 15% Attack Boost when we guard, and 1/3 Dragon Attack for some extra Elemental Damage.

Corrupted Mantle is by far the best mantle in the game and it's not close, Putting the mantle on increases your Raw Attack by 10, and grants you 10% Affinity at the cost of draining your health, when charged up after a few hits however, it adds an extra hit to your attacks, gives you 20 extra Raw Attack, and 20% affinity functioning as the largest DPS increase in the entire game besides your weapon itself.

G. Ebony Helm β Is a fantastic value piece providing us with 2/5 Burst and a Level 2 Decoration slot for our first Mighty Jewel getting us 1/5 Maximum Might Two of the strongest effective DPS increases in the game.

Arkvulcan Mail β Gets us 1/5 Weakness Exploit for a very consistent increase to affinity, as well as a Chain Jewel & Mighty Jewel for another level of Burst & Maximum Might creating a very efficient gear piece.

G. Ebony Braces α has no decoration slots, but it does get us up to 5/5 Burst and activates Ebony Odogaron's Power set bonus for Burst Boost I getting us 3 more Raw Attack with virtually perfect uptime. The extra Divine Blessing isn't bad either giving us a bit of extra defense.

Gore Coil β Sucks, Constitution isn't very good for Sword & Shield but, we need it for the Gore Magala's Tyranny set bonus, which when combined with 3/3 Antivirus gives us 25% more affinity with very good uptime. For the Decorations we get another level of Weakness Exploit & 3/3 Maximum Might with a Tenderizer Jewel & Mighty Jewel

Gore Greaves β Completes the Gore Magala's Tyranny set requirement while giving us 3/5 Weakness Exploit & a nice little level of Flinch Free with another Tenderizer Jewel, and 3/3 Antivirus by socketing 2 Sane Jewel

Afflicting ourselves with Frenzy and Corrupting Mantle makes this set dangerous to run if you're not locked in, but the pay off is 90% Affinity and high uptime bonus 41 Raw Attack +15% from Offensive Guard. If you start the fight off poorly though it's going to quickly result in getting you carted off, so be careful when running this set.

Consumables

The best meal for damage is Meat + Airy Eggs + Western Honey
Meat gives +2 Attack, Airy Eggs gives Attack Up L at random intervals and Western Honey helps you recover from Damage.

Make regular usage of Mega Demondrug and Mega Armorskin, which grants you +7 Attack and +25 Defense for 30 minutes.
You can pop these when you eat your meal while equipped with 3/3 Item Prolonger to make them last 45 minutes saving you materials.
You can also Might Pill in your opener for +25 Attack for 20 seconds.
If you want to go nuts then Might Seed gives 10 Attack for 3 minutes.
Demon Powder a further 10 Attack for 3 minutes, all of this stacks.

Carry Shock & Pit Fall Traps as well as a tranquilizer consumable to utilize when you hear the call out informing you the monster is getting weak or when you see a skull icon on the monster on the minimap indicating it can be captured ending the hunt quicker then slaying it.
