Switch Weapons Guide for Monster Hunter Wilds

In *Monster Hunter Wilds*, the introduction of the Seikret adds a new layer of utility both in and out of combat. One of the game's key features is the ability to switch between weapons, which can significantly enhance your gameplay experience. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to do it effectively.

Switching Between 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 if you're playing on PC. This action will prompt your Hunter to automatically equip your secondary weapon. You can summon your Seikret to your location at any point on the field by pressing up on the d-pad.

It's also important to know that you can change your primary and secondary weapons at Base Camp. The most straightforward method to do this is by interacting with Gemma. Here, you can organize your weapons and select which weapon you want to set as your primary or secondary. Your primary weapon will be carried by your Hunter, while your secondary weapon will be stored on your Seikret. This setup can be modified at any time according to your preferences.

The ability to switch between two weapon types in *Monster Hunter Wilds* is a game-changer. While it's beneficial to master one weapon type, being skilled in multiple types can help you tackle various challenges more effectively. It's also wise to consider carrying different elemental weapons to prepare for unexpected encounters during your quests.
