I also got some ideas with visual aesthetics in monster hunter involving weather. The weatherbi ideas I threw at a friend seemed off putting to him because he believes weather stuff should affect the hunter yes but not the integrity of his equipment so maybe weather affecting damage... not such a good idea..

BUUUUT visually speaking maybe fire resistant armor and fire based weapons gives off steam when in rainy or show weather due to its high heat potential especially for flame aura.. snow/water resistant armors and like minded weapons give off a lot of saturation in really hot/muggy conditions ad even electricity bouncing and popping off of the armor in heavy rain XD
