Monster Hunter Wilds 6 Preparations: What Should You Do After The Game Is Released?

Hey, if you still feel that life is boring because of work, study or other external reasons that make you feel stressed, and don’t know how to make yourself happy, then today is definitely a day worth remembering - the highly anticipated Monster Hunter Wilds finally officially meets global players today, February 28!

As a classic game series that has existed for 20 years, Monster Hunter has undergone changes and upgrades since 2004. It not only has multiple game works in the series but also has derived related comic movies. The most noteworthy game in the series is Monster Hunter: World in 2018. Once it was launched, it changed the situation that the entire series was not popular in the Western market before, and quickly became popular around the world.

Based on these good foundations, Monster Hunter officially brings you the latest work this year, Monster Hunter Wilds. But don’t blindly enter the game because of excitement, even if you are an old player of Monster Hunter series, because the new game may not only abolish some old mechanisms but also add new gameplay that you don’t know. To help you quickly get familiar with MHW, we recommend that you complete the following 6 preparations first.

1. Get Pre-Order DLC And Beta Rewards

At the beginning of the game, you may feel that you are struggling because you lack the necessary Monster Hunter Wilds Items. Although it is necessary to learn to rely on your own efforts to cultivate these resources, you must not miss the free rewards that can be obtained!

If you have previously pre-ordered DLC for MH Wilds and played the beta version, you can go to Support Desk Palico Conut to claim the relevant rewards after officially entering the game. The rewards should include the necessary gear or items.

2. Check Weapon’s Controls Guide

In MHW, fighting various monsters that roam in the wilderness is the core gameplay. In order to kill them and win, you must be proficient in operating them based on a sufficient understanding of your weapons, no matter what devices you play on. So be sure to check your weapon’s controls guide by following these steps:

• Open the menu
• Find the three tabs in the Info section
• Select the Play Guide at the bottom
• Select the third weapon controls option to view

This option will list all weapon attacks and combo modes for you, and explain some professional terms to help you understand your weapon.

3. Collect Rations Or Cook Steaks

MH Wilds’ Windward Plains Base Camp has an ingredient center function, but unlike the old games in the series, Felynes will no longer cook for you in Wilds, but only provide ingredients for you to cook yourself. This work is very necessary because rations can help you restore your physical strength during the journey.

Just talk to Tom at the ingredient center and he will give you a batch of rations for you to eat or cook food in your tent. In addition, you can also try to get some raw meat by hunting Ceratonoth and Dalthydon monsters on the plains outside the camp, and then use the portable grill to cook them into steaks. The biggest difference between steaks and rations is that the former can increase your health and stamina to deal with some emergencies.

4. Kill Small Monsters To Get Bulaqchi Specs

For most MH games, the first thing you should do when you arrive in a new area in the game is to hunt and harvest the small monsters in the area, because they can provide you with special materials and skills through unique armor sets. The same is true in Monster Hunter Wilds.

For example, Talioth in Windward Plains can unlock Talioth Bracers for you, and Vespoid can bring Vespoid Set. These small monsters will be marked by pink icons on the map. The reason why it is recommended to hunt Bulaqchi to unlock Bulaqchi Specs is that it can prevent you from accidentally killing them when chasing small insect monsters-in fact, you can get more benefits by breeding surviving insects.

5. Checking Monster Field Guide Frequently

Exploring the wilderness means that there are more unknowns behind the unlimited freedom, so checking Monster Field Guide frequently can help you avoid detours. Although many players tend to forget this, we have to say that this is a bad behavior because Monster Field Guide will tell you a lot of content, such as:

• Each monster’s exact weaknesses, including elemental or status effects.
• Tell you the best position to attack monsters with weapons according to the damage type (slashing, blunt attack, shooting).
• How to obtain each material dropped by monsters, and the drop rate of different materials.

If you want to be more targeted in resource farming or improve combat efficiency, Monster Field Guide will be a handy and useful resource.

6. Using Ghillie Mantle

As the game progresses, the blacksmith Gemma will periodically provide you with new cloaks. Temporarily equipping them will give you special benefits. The first of these cloaks is Ghillie Mantle, which allows you to sneak, giving you an advantage in early hunts and entering the latter stages more smoothly. After wearing it, just walk behind the monster before hunting and interact at the position where Sneak Attack is displayed to deal damage.

If you want to play MH Wilds, the above are a few tasks you should do as soon as the game is released. Hope you have a pleasant adventure!
