Monster Hunter Wilds Best Gathering Set

For dedicated material gathering in Monster Hunter Wilds, combining specific armor pieces maximizes bonuses. Here’s the optimal gathering armor set:

The Sild Hood is essential for gathering, providing the Botanist skill, key for efficient collection. I prefer the Intimidator skill to avoid small monster interruptions, which Conga Mail and Guardian Rathalos Vambraces offer. Alternatively, swap for Leather pieces for different bonuses if preferred.

Azuz Pants are a must, granting Geologist 3 for significantly improved gathering efficiency.

For the Charm slot, choose Marathon or Intimidator based on your armor setup. If Intimidator isn’t on your armor, select the Intimidator Charm, or opt for Marathon otherwise.

Best Gathering Skills

Beyond armor, equipping the right skills is crucial for gathering in Monster Hunter Wilds. Below are the essential skills to activate for optimal material collection:

Botanist and Geologist are non-negotiable skills for any gathering armor set. Even without all ideal armor pieces, prioritize these two skills, as others can be added later with progression.
