Through gathering various objects, you can assemble anything ranging from enhanced potions to tools that enable capturing monsters rather than slaying them. Crafting is equally crucial when utilizing a ranged weapon in-game, as it requires creating diverse ammunition types to maximize your skills effectively.
Regardless if you’re planning to create your own Chatacabra boots or fabricate the blazing Rathalos Bow, it’s essential to brace yourself for extensive gaming hours. This is even more crucial when confronting formidable beasts such as Jin Dahaad, the apex predator of the Wilds.
In any core Monster Hunter game, weapons serve as the fundamental structure. Yet, enhancing them might seem cumbersome within these mainline games. While Capcom aimed to simplify the upgrade and crafting process in Monster Hunter World, it may still appear complex for novice players.
To optimize your learning experience when starting the game for the first time, consider selecting one of the MH Wilds weapons to thoroughly understand its unique characteristics. As you progress, have another weapon handy as a backup, which you can gradually master with practice. It’s beneficial if these two weapons offer distinct playing styles (like long-range vs melee, or fast vs slow), but it’s not strictly necessary.
As a devoted player, I can’t help but appreciate the addition of an alternative weapon system in this game. While it’s not strictly necessary, having a secondary weapon could prove invaluable when tackling the tougher missions that are sure to be introduced down the line.
If you’re just starting out with the Insect Glaive, it’s important to understand that the main component of this weapon is the Kinsect – a small bug companion perched on your arm that flies around collecting white, red, orange, or green energy. The green energy will restore your health, while the other three colors fill up your essence meter located in the top left corner of your screen. This meter allows you to unleash powerful new attacks, such as a combo move in Wilds that uses up the essence for high damage output.
