Switching Between Weapons in Monster Hunter Wilds
To switch between your primary and secondary weapons in *Monster Hunter Wilds*, you'll need to mount your Seikret.

You can summon your Seikret to your location at any time on the field by pressing up on the d-pad, making weapon switching seamless and efficient.
Additionally, you can customize your primary and secondary weapons when you're back at Base Camp. The most straightforward method is to speak with Gemma, who will allow you to organize your weapons. From there, you can select the weapon you wish to use and designate it 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 adjusted at any time to suit your strategy.
The ability to switch between two weapon types in *Monster Hunter Wilds* is a game-changer. While mastering one weapon type is always advisable, proficiency with multiple types can significantly enhance your ability to tackle various threats.
