The purpose of this section is to give ideas of how to socket sets that really don't have a whole lot of flexibility; such
as the G-Rank Fatalis sets, you can't mix them without losing their "special" skill and I know i couldn't decide what
extra skill to fill up that hole. Also i hope it will introduce other random sets that i use on occasion.

~This section is designed to aid hunters in reaching HR7. It is NOT designed to yield maximum output armors.
Please note that when requesting and posting sets that this group of hunters has limitations as far as money and high
end jewels.
I encourage this class of hunters to also "get in on this" as it really will be beneficial to you and others.
This section will not be as detailed/organized as above and will have less sets as well. Same guidelines as far as
requesting and posting as above are in effect.
If you would like to submit or request a set for only HR4- or 4+ please say so when posting.
*Also be aware that many sets may be gemmed better, however I am setting this up so that everyone can make
these sets as some jewels are not available until later in the game.
*NOTE: Max Defenses will NOT be shown as armors cannot be maxed out until the discovery of true armor spheres
at a later HR. However resistances will be given.
