Does Affinity stack

monster-hunter-3-ultimate

I just completed my Azure Rathalos armor set, and noticed that it gave me an Affinity boost. I remembered that Nargacuga weapons also had an affinity boost. So before I start grinding for Nargacuga Dual Blades, I want to know, is it worth it? Or will Affinity not stack at all and I'll just have two different Affinity percentages?

Best Answer

The Expert skill (from armour) stacks with the natural affinity percentage on weapons. For instance, I've used the Arko Nulo bow (5% affinity) with Diablos armour (Expert +1) which gives me an overall affinity of 15% on my status screen.
