Many weapons inMonster Hunterhave elemental damage attached to them which can help to exploit certain monsters weaknesses. Fast attacking weapons benefit the most from elemental damage due to the way elemental damage is applied. This makes the bow one of the weapons that is best with an element attached to it. The Weaver of Flame bow is a bow obtainable fairly late inMonster Hunter Rise, but can serve as players' fire bow should they so choose.
Unlocking High Rank and Rakna-Kadaki
Despite being one of the firstmonsters ever shown inMonster Hunter Rise, albeit very briefly in the first trailer, Rakna-Kadaki is actually one of the last monsters fought in the course of the game. Rakna-Kadaki is first fought in the urgent quest whose completion unlocks the star rank 7 hub quests. So to forge the Weaver of Flame bow, players will need to not only unlock high rank, but progress through most of it.

Forging the Bow
Once players have gotten to Rakna-Kadaki, they will need the following materials for the bow:
This bow is forged from just these materials and does not need to be upgraded from a previous tier of bow. Each material required can also be acquired just from hunting Rakna-Kadaki, there are no materials that needed to be gathered from elsewhere. Even theRakna-Kadaki armorrequires players to get parts from the small monster Rachnoids. Each part also has at least a 10% chance of being rewarded at the end of a hunt so there are no super rare drops like plates or gems that players will have to farm for.
However, while the the bow can be forged directly, it can also be upgraded from the Kamura Iron Bow V with the following materials:
In this case, players will actually have to go outside of Rakna-Kadaki to get the materials. Rachnoid Silk+ is from the previously mentioned Rachnoids, and Inferno Sacs are obtainable from other fire monsters like Anjantah, Aknosom, Basarios, Rathian, and Rathalos.
Once all the materials have been obtained, players can head to either the smith in the village or the hub, pay 54,000 zenny, andhave the bow crafted. It has 150 attack, 25 fire element, 20% affinity, one level 2 decoration slot, two level 1 decoration slots, and a recovery type arc shot. It’s shot type at level 1 is spread level 3. At level 2, it is pierce level 3. At level 3, it is also pierce level 3. And finally it has a hidden level 4 charge which is pierce level 4. The level 4 charge can be unlocked with the mighty bow feather headpiece, forgeable with arena quest materials.
Upgrading the Bow
Once the final boss of the game has been beaten, the bow can be upgraded using these materials:
The Elder Dragon Blood can be obtained from the final boss, the carapaces, as is likely obvious, can be obtained from fight Rakna-Kadaki, and the Firecell Stones canbe found in ore nodesat the Lava Caverns. Once the materials have been gathered and the bow has been upgraded, it will then have 160 attack, 29 fire element, 25% affinity, the same decoration slots, and the same arc shot type. Its level 1 shot type is spread level 3. It’s level 2 and 3 shot types are pierce level 4 and its hidden level 4 shot type is also pierce level 4.
