How to Switch Weapons in Monster Hunter Wilds

Mastering Weapon Swapping in Monster Hunter Wilds with the Seikret

Monster Hunter Wilds' innovative Seikret introduces significant combat and logistical advantages. This guide explains how to seamlessly switch weapons.

Switching Weapons in the Field:

To swap between your main and secondary weapons, first summon your Seikret (using the up directional pad). Once mounted, press the right directional pad button (or X on PC). This instantly equips your secondary weapon. You can recall your Seikret at any time using the up directional pad.

Weapon Selection at Base Camp:

Alternatively, manage your weapon loadout at Base Camp. Speak with Gemma, access your weapon inventory, select your desired weapon, and designate it as your primary or secondary. Your primary weapon is readily equipped, while the secondary resides on your Seikret. This arrangement is fully customizable.

Strategic Weapon Variety:

The ability to switch weapons is invaluable in Monster Hunter Wilds. While mastering a single weapon type is key, proficiency with multiple weapons allows for adaptable strategies against diverse threats. Consider carrying elemental weapons to counter unexpected monster encounters during quests.
