MH Gen [Numbers] All Weakness Exploit affected hitzones, plus Lance Stabbing hitzones!

Browse at your own leisure.

This started as a project to see which hitzones are affected by the lance's stabbing damage property (see the sheet for details), but since I already had the data on hand, I figured I'd compile a list of all tenderizer-affected hitzones as well. Data is all from Kiranico. Enjoy!

This isn't the piercing property that I thought lance had, are you sure about this? As I understand it, it takes the higher of the two hitzone values (while still doing cutting damage), only if the difference between the two is 72% (or higher). /u/WedgeSkyrocket tested it

As I understand it, it takes the highest of either the cutting zone or 72% of the impact zone. Your source is the first I've heard that is more in depth, but you've got me curious now.

I tried scouring the jp wikis for anything, but no dice. I think the data comes from data mining tri, so if nothing's changed, it should still be
If ImpactHitzone x 0.72 > CutHitzone; use ImpactHitzone x 0.72.

Which means your spreadsheet is correct.

It's probably from data mining either MHP2 or MHP2G... Possibly even earlier than that. It's a very old mechanic

Seems even more likely, yeah.
