Ultimate MH Wilds Survival Guide

Here are some valuable tips for Monster Hunter Wilds:

General Tips

Environmental Awareness: Always check the Environmental Overview on the world map to know when weather conditions will change and how long they will last. This can affect monster spawns and behaviors.
Use Environmental Hazards: Utilize environmental traps and hazards to your advantage. These can significantly simplify battles by applying varied effects on monsters.
Gather Resources: Collect all possible loot and materials while on hunts. These resources are crucial for upgrading gear and making future battles easier.
Focus on Wounds: Continuously attack the same area on a monster to create wounds. Use Focus Strikes to destroy these wounds for massive damage and free materials.
Choose and Master Weapons: Pick two weapons that complement each other (e.g., melee and ranged) and focus on mastering them. This will help you adapt to different situations.

Understand Monster Weaknesses: Consult your Monster Field Guide to learn each monster's elemental and physical weaknesses. This will help you choose the right weapons and strategies.
Stay Mobile: Use your mount, Seikret, for mobility and speed. It also provides a safer platform for using items like potions.
Timing and Positioning: Recognize monster attack patterns and use openings to inflict damage. Move or dodge before the monster retaliates.
Use Charged Attacks: For weapons like the sword and shield, use Charged Chops for quick, controlled damage. This can be followed by a roll to avoid counterattacks.

Set Up a Default Loadout: Create a loadout with essential items like potions, traps, and bombs in your camp tent. This ensures you're always prepared.
Utilize Seikret's Saddlebags: Access your Seikret's supply pouch for additional items that can aid in quests, such as healing potions or specialized gear.

These tips should help both new and experienced players navigate the challenges of Monster Hunter Wilds.
