Mastering Character Customization in Monster Hunter Wilds

Character customization is a key element in Monster Hunter Wilds, offering extensive options for both your hunter and palico. This guide details how to modify your character's appearance and outfits.

Adjusting Physical Appearance

Character Appearance Menu

Monster Hunter Wilds provides a detailed character creator accessible throughout the game. After unlocking the base camp, access the Appearance Menu from your tent (using L1 or R1). Select "Change Appearance" to revisit the character creator and modify your hunter's and palico's physical attributes.

Outfit Changes and Layered Armor

Layered Armor Menu

The Layered Armor system is available from the game's outset. Navigate to the Appearance Menu in your tent and choose "Equipment Appearance." This lets you customize your hunter's and palico's outfits using unlocked Layered Armor pieces. Note that you can't transmog equipped armor with other forged armor sets. To change outfits beyond layered armor, you must forge and equip new armor sets, keeping in mind the impact on stats.

Seikret Customization

The Appearance Menu also includes Seikret Customization options. Here, you can adjust your Seikret's skin and feather colors, patterns, decorations, and even eye color.
