Many players get confused when they hear the name of weakness exploit. To them, it sounds like any other typical quest in MHW. But as a matter of fact, weakness exploit in the monster world is a piece of armor that is activated when you get equipped with certain weapons.

What is the weakness exploit?
Basically, an armor set, a weakness exploit is extremely helpful while combatting a monster. It effectively gives a boost to the affinity of the attack that is landed on a weak point on a given beast. For example, the weak spot for monster Nergigante is its tail, so when you attack the monster’s tail while wearing an armor that lets you the skill to identify the weak spot, your attacks on the tail would certainly be far more damaging and critical.
There are different levels of weakness exploit armor. With every level going up, the strength of the weakness exploit armor increases. The weakness exploit affinity at level one is 15 percent which goes on to be 30 percent at the second level and as you enter the third level, weakness exploit affinity level stands at 50 percent.
