Layered Weapons are weapon augments that can be layered on top of an existing
Master Rank (Rarity 9 and above)
weapon. This feature enables hunters to customize their weapon's appearance while retaining the weapon's stats. Layered Weapons do not occupy a weapon's augment slots when applied.

Layered Weapon augments are classified into three types: Layered Bases, Layered Parts, and Unique Layers.

Layered Bases are augments that serve as the foundation of a Layered Weapon's overall apperance.

Layered Bases can be paired with Layered Parts.

Layered Parts are augments that hunters can add on-top of their Layered Base.

Layered Parts cannot be applied without a Layered Base.

Unique Layers are special augments that completely overhaul a weapon's appearance.

Layered Parts cannot be applied on top of Unique Layers.



Simply head over to the Smithy and select the Augment Equipment option. Afterwards, select the weapon you want to apply a Layered Weapon Augment

How to Equip Layered Weapons

When looking to equip layered weapons, certain parameters must be met in order to be able to use specific weapon designs. If you










Super disappointed in the new layered weapon system.

First of all, the layered weapons system is extremely limited for no apparent reason. The layered armor system was already limited, but this takes it to a whole new level. No new layered armor was introduced as far as I can tell, and the only worthwhile addition to the game in this new patch are the two new monsters, one of which is a slightly harder Rajang and the other is a fairly interesting variation of the Brachy.

My suggestion: just give us proper layered weapons/armor... Ideally just make layered versions of all armors and weapons (the assets are already done so it's not really a matter of extra work for the devs at this point) but if capcom really, REALLY doesn't want to do that, I would say the bare minimum to be acceptable would be all highrank armor (all versions, Beta, Alpha, etc) as layered armor and the ability to make any weapon look the way you want.

There is no excuse for the layered stuff to be as limited as they are. Especially the layered weapons turned out to be a big fat joke. Sorry if this is coming off as entitled, but if a decision like this is made there has to be a reason for it, an
