Changing Appearance in Monster Hunter Wilds (Hunter and Palico)
Let's dive into how you can modify your character's physical appearance in Monster Hunter Wilds. The game offers an extensive character creator, enabling you to craft an avatar that could closely resemble you in real life.
If you find yourself wanting to make changes later in the game, you're in luck. Once you've unlocked the base camp, simply head to your tent and navigate to the Appearance Menu by pressing L1 or R1. From there, select the Change Appearance option, and you'll have the chance to revisit the character creator to adjust the looks of both your Hunter and Palico.
How to Change Outfits and Use Layered Armor
The Layered Armor feature is available right from the start of Monster Hunter Wilds. To access it, go to your tent, enter the Appearance Menu, and then select Equipment Appearance. This allows you to customize your Hunter's outfit to your liking, though you're restricted to the Layered Armor items you've unlocked. Note that you can't use this feature to transmog your equipped armor with other armor types you've forged.
There's also an option for Palico Equipment Appearance, which lets you apply Layered Armor items to your Palico.
If the Layered Armor options don't meet your style, the only other way to change your outfit is by forging and equipping new armor. Keep in mind that each piece of equipment has different stats, so it's important not to sacrifice functionality for fashion.
Seikret Customization
Lastly, the Appearance Menu includes an option for Seikret Customization. This feature allows you to alter the Seikret's skin and feather color, as well as tweak various settings such as its pattern, decoration type, and even its eye color.
And that's how you can change your outfits and appearance in Monster Hunter Wilds. For more tips and information on the game, be sure to check out The Escapist.
