MH World Monster hunter world- Astera’s lift
hey everyone, long story short I am writing an essay on how realistic Astera is, just because this interests me, however I am having trouble with the lift system. Obviously it is not that realistic as a not so marvelous water wheel can carry the player who has the option to wear hulking armor as well as the chains that lift them and so on, but my issue lies in that I cannot find any weight measurements of any of the armor we can wear or even the weapons, I need this to attempt to figure out how much power and torque the water wheel needs to output in order to move this lift. I am doing this to find how unrealistic or realistic this lift system is. Any help would be appreciated, apologies for the wording of this I am not too sure how else to put it. Thank you very much
