One of the exciting new features in Monster Hunter Wilds is the Seikret, a versatile companion that enhances both combat and exploration. If you're wondering how to seamlessly switch weapons, here's a simple guide.

Switching Weapons in Monster Hunter Wilds

To swap between your primary and secondary weapons, you'll first need your Seikret. While mounted on your Seikret, press right on the d-pad (or X on PC). This instantly equips your secondary weapon. Need your Seikret? Simply press up on the d-pad to summon it from anywhere in the field.

You can also manage your weapon loadout at Base Camp. Speak to Gemma, organize your weapons, and select which weapon you'd like to designate as primary or secondary. Your primary weapon will be readily equipped, while your secondary rests on your Seikret. Feel free to adjust this setup whenever you need.

The ability to switch weapon types offers significant advantages in Monster Hunter Wilds. While mastering one weapon type is crucial, proficiency with multiple weapons allows you to adapt to various threats. Consider carrying weapons with different elemental properties to prepare for unexpected monster encounters during quests.
