Monster Hunter Wilds weapon tier list: Best weapons, ranked

As a dedicated Monster Hunter Wilds gamer, I’ve found that the ultimate weapon for any quest boils down to your personal playstyle. Some weapons excel when you’re soloing, while others truly shine when you’re partying up with fellow hunters. Despite the choice, every weapon in our arsenal is capable of bringing even the most formidable beasts to their knees. Here’s a look at our weapon tier list in Monster Hunter Wilds.

Unlock & Upgrade Awesome Armor in Monster Hunter Wilds!

In Monster Hunter World (MHW), there’s an abundance of stylish outfits that catch the eye. Personally, I find it thrilling to anticipate which unique armor a slain boss will yield. Some might say this guessing game is nearly as enjoyable as the actual combat, but given my passion for video game fashion, my perspective may be biased.

Elemental Damage in Monster Hunter Wilds, Explained

In Monster Hunter games, there are two main categories of damage: Elemental and Physical (Raw). Each type has its unique scenarios where they excel, as well as advantages and disadvantages. For instance, the Raw damage is more suitable for melee weapons, particularly those with high single-hit power but lower agility, such as Great Sword, Hammer, Switch Axe, etc. Conversely, Elemental damage works best with ranged or swift weapons like Bow, Dual Blades, Charge Blade, Sword and Shield, etc. The Raw damage is potent against toppling monsters but lacks a bonus multiplier without Critical Hits. On the other hand, Elemental damage can be a bit tricky due to its complex nature.

How To Fast Travel in Monster Hunter Wilds

As a gamer, darting across the expansive landscapes of Monster Hunter Wilds is absolutely essential, given its intricate open-world layout and the refined Investigation system. While fast travel isn’t exactly novel to the latest Monster Hunter installment, it feels significantly more intuitive compared to previous versions. In Monster Hunter World, for instance, fast travel was only possible at camps you managed to unlock across each map. Moreover, fast travel wasn’t particularly enticing in that game because of its compact, tightly-packed maps. It was much the same in Monster Hunter Rise, with minimal travel options available. However, Capcom has simplified the fast travel process in Monster Hunter Wilds, making it a smoother experience overall.

How to mount monsters in Monster Hunter Wilds

In Monster Hunter Wilds, you can ride a giant beast by jumping onto its back from a high spot, followed by a jumping attack with any of your weapons. However, each monster has an unseen gauge that fills up for this action, so it can’t be done repeatedly if the gauge isn’t full yet. When the gauge isn’t filled, jumping attacks won’t result in mounting.
