How to Switch Weapons in Monster Hunter Wilds
To swap between your primary and secondary weapons in Monster Hunter Wilds, you must first mount your Seikret. Once mounted, press right on the d-pad (or the X key on PC). Your Hunter will then automatically equip the secondary weapon. You can summon your Seikret anywhere in the field by pressing up on the d-pad.
You can also change your primary and secondary weapon loadouts when you return to Base Camp. The simplest method is to speak with Gemma, manage your weapon inventory, and select the desired weapon to assign as your primary or secondary. Your primary weapon is carried on your Hunter, while the secondary is stored on your Seikret. You can rearrange this setup at any time.
The ability to switch between two weapon types is a game-changer in Monster Hunter Wilds. While mastering a single weapon is ideal, proficiency with multiple types helps you handle diverse threats. Consider bringing weapons with different elements to prepare for unexpected monster encounters during quests.
