Switching Between Weapons in Monster Hunter Wilds

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

Additionally, you have the flexibility to change your primary and secondary weapons when you're back at Base Camp. The most straightforward method is to speak with Gemma, who can help you organize your weapons. From there, you can select the weapon you wish to use and designate it as either your primary or secondary. Your primary weapon will be carried directly on your Hunter, whereas your secondary weapon will be stored on your Seikret. You can adjust this setup at any time to suit your needs.

The ability to switch between two different weapon types in *Monster Hunter Wilds* is a game-changer. While it's beneficial to become an expert with one weapon type, proficiency with multiple types can significantly enhance your ability to tackle various threats. It's also wise to consider carrying weapons with different elemental properties to adapt to unexpected monster encounters during your quests.
