Mastering weapon switching in Monster Hunter Wilds is key to conquering its challenging hunts. This guide focuses on utilizing the Seikret, a game-changing addition that significantly enhances combat versatility.

Switching Weapons in Monster Hunter Wilds

To seamlessly transition between your primary and secondary weapons, you'll first need your trusty Seikret. While mounted on your Seikret, simply press right on the directional pad (d-pad) on controllers, or the X key if you're playing on PC. This action instantly equips your secondary weapon, allowing for rapid tactical adjustments during combat. Need to summon your Seikret? Just press up on the d-pad from anywhere in the field.

Alternatively, you can manage your weapon loadout at Base Camp. Speak with Gemma, access your weapon inventory, and select your preferred primary and secondary weapons. Your primary weapon will be readily equipped, while the secondary rests securely on your Seikret. Feel free to rearrange this setup whenever you see fit.

The ability to switch weapons offers a significant advantage in Monster Hunter Wilds. While mastering a single weapon type is recommended, proficiency with multiple weapons allows you to effectively counter diverse threats. Consider equipping weapons with varying elemental properties to prepare for unexpected monster encounters during quests.
