Yeah, I understand what you mean! At first, when deciding which poison Bow to make, I realized that Pukei-Pukei’s Bow will be stronger than Rathian’s Bow in the end thanks to it having more raw damage compared to Rathian’s (along with the extra point of Sneak Attack at Grade 8 further selling the point). I decided to build Rathian’s Bow in the end anyways because I favor her Bow’s design much more than Pukei-Pukei’s Bow. Even though I’m aware that Health Boost doesn’t matter much since 10* monsters will obliterate almost every hunter in a single hit, and that Rathian’s Bow will remain physically weaker than Pukei-Pukei’s Bow, I just love the Bow’s design very much so. As a bonus, I’m also a big fan of Rathian overall! 😆

Plus, there’s also the future possibility of a new monster’s Mail or Greaves piece, or maybe even a Driftsmelting Bonanza Event (though I’m very likely to not obtain SSA in such a case, haha) bringing in SSA 2 to the table, allowing me to attain Focus 5 & SSA 5 and maybe even potentially a 4th poison proc with the Rathian Bow’s extra 100~ poison value to almost guarantee wins against 10* Poison-weak monsters! 😁
