The Attack Power added is either 3,5 or 10 of pure Attack Power, which is multiplied by the
Weapon Class Multiplier and added to the total Attack Power.

The follow are the Weapon Class Multiplier:

Great Sword/Long Sword - 4.8

Sword&Shield/Dual Swords - 1.4

Hammer/Hunting Horn - 5.2

Lance/Gunlance - 2.3

Light&Heavy Bowgun/Bow - 1.2

Example: The Hunter is using a Great Sword with Attack Up (Large), so 4.8 x 20 = 96.0
Attack Power added, all decimals are dropped. The end result is that the total Attack Power
will increase by 96.
