Action RPG

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.

In simpler terms, the projectiles that come out of the Gunlance’s built-in gun barrel are referred to as “Shells”. These are similar to shotgun blasts and consistently damage monsters regardless of their tough skin. You can fire them individually or all at once in a powerful combo known as a full blast. Further details about this will be discussed later.

In the Wilds, a fresh gameplay feature has emerged, focusing on bartering with the settlements of the Forbidden Lands to procure unique materials and request them to gather materials for you. It’s important to mention that while the Item Trade mechanism is present in Lower Ranks, none of the essential items needed here are available, thus the hidden armor sets cannot be obtained until you ascend to Higher Ranks.

The researcher provides some information on local wildlife, then hands you a capture net so you can catch and study these small creatures for your monster guidebook. You can also inspect a selected creature closely in the command tent. To start, however, you must locate a Tracktail Lizard first, and here’s where to find them.

In Monster Hunter Wilds, there are advantages and disadvantages to both slaying monsters versus capturing them, which I will discuss further below. If you’re new to the game and questioning whether to spare the creatures of the Forbidden Lands or not, or simply unsure about the capture process, here’s a breakdown on when to kill or capture in Monster Hunter Wilds, along with instructions for capturing them effectively.

In this rephrased version, I aimed to make the text more accessible and engaging by using a conversational tone and breaking down complex ideas into simpler steps.

Additionally, you’ll find it helpful to have Icium for upgrading the ore tree, so let me guide you through obtaining one as well. To start with, here’s a simple method to secure a Lightcrystal within Monster Hunter Wilds:

This way, you can gather the necessary resources for your ore tree upgrade without any confusion. Enjoy hunting!
