Equipment Collectors: How do you like to sort your Equipment Boxes?
Posted: Thu Jun 29, 2023 4:17 am
i'm curious! people like to discuss different ways they sort their item boxes, particularly with MH1, but i don't hear as much about equipment sorting. what's your approach? do you like to color coordinate your equipment icons? do you prioritize any weapon types? do you give up on sorting your equipment and just auto-sort everything? i wanna hear about it!!
to start us off, here are some of my equipment boxes:
--- here's my MH1 box! ---
the top 3 rows contain most of my weapons, sorted by weapon type and strength from the top-left to the bottom-right. armor sets are sorted based on when i got them chronologically, from right to left. on the left side there are a few extra weapons that i don't use, but i like to keep around (crystal hammer + bone broadaxe since they were my lowrank village progression buddies, lacerator blade for MHG opening CG rathalos armor hunter cosplay)
--- here's da MHG box WOW so many pages now ---
you might be able to tell how the first page was built off my MH1 box... i was able to reorganize the weapons section quite a bit, having over double the amount of space to work with above the armor section -- having a full row for each weapon class worked out pretty nicely i think. page 1 ended up storing most of my low + high rank equipment
i ignored page 2 for most of my playtime! page 3 has a cooler, blue background so it was my first choice for storing all my g-rank equipment. since i didn't need any extra space to store low / high rank gear, page 2 ended up as a sort of "overflow" for any armor sets that were too weird to take up space on page 3 (plus some greatswords because there are simply SO many greatswords, they're hard to all fit in a line together...)
also for armor sets on page 3: i couldnt tell you if i sorted them from the left or from the right, to be honest ._. i think i might've put some stuff over on the right before i filled it in completely with armor
--- aaaaaaaaaand heres MH2! offline only gear at the moment ---
2 things different from before: armor is DEIFNITIVELY sorted from the left this time around!! and for now i only have 1 row reserved for each weapon class
i will definitely need to reorganize my weapons by the time the servers release and i begin collecting weapons more seriously... but for the time being i think it looks nice like this! page 1 has the main four blademaster weapons, and page 2 has their "counterparts"
feel free to drop any equipment sorting wisdom you have in this thread ^v^
