Switching Between Weapons in Monster Hunter Wilds

To switch between your primary and secondary weapons in *Monster Hunter Wilds*, you'll first need to mount your Seikret. Once mounted, press right on the d-pad if you're using a console, or hit the X key if you're on PC. This action will allow your Hunter to seamlessly equip your secondary weapon. You can summon your Seikret to your location anytime by pressing up on the d-pad, no matter where you are on the field.

It's also important to know that you can change your primary and secondary weapons when you're back at Base Camp. The simplest way to do this is by talking to Gemma, who helps you organize your weapons. Select the weapon you want and choose to set it as your primary or secondary. Your primary weapon will be equipped directly on your Hunter, while your secondary weapon will be stored on your Seikret. You have the flexibility to adjust this setup at any time.

The ability to switch between two weapon types in *Monster Hunter Wilds* is a game-changer. While it's beneficial to become highly proficient with one weapon type, mastering multiple types can significantly enhance your adaptability against different threats. Additionally, consider equipping different elemental weapons to be prepared for unexpected encounters during your quests.
