How to Switch Weapons in Monster Hunter Wilds
To switch between your primary and secondary weapons in Monster Hunter Wilds, you first need to mount your Seikret. Once mounted, press right on the d-pad (or the X key on PC). This prompts your Hunter to automatically equip the secondary weapon. You can summon your Seikret at any location on the field by pressing up on the d-pad.
Note that you can also reconfigure your primary and secondary weapon loadouts when you return to Base Camp. The simplest method is to speak with Gemma, manage your weapon inventory, select the desired weapon, and assign it as either your primary or secondary. Your primary weapon is carried on your Hunter, while the secondary is stored on the Seikret. You can rearrange this setup at any time.
Having the flexibility to switch between two weapon types is a major advantage in Monster Hunter Wilds. While mastering one weapon type is always recommended, proficiency with multiple types enables you to handle diverse threats more effectively. Consider carrying weapons with different elemental attributes to prepare for unexpected monster encounters during quests.
