How To Master Mounting In Monster Hunter Wilds
- Mounting in Monster Hunter Wilds is a fun and crucial mechanic for hunters to master.
- To mount a monster, you need to attack it with jumping attacks using various methods like jumping off your Seikret or using a Wedge Beetle.
- Each monster has a damage threshold for mounting, with different weapons affecting how quickly you can mount.
- Mounting isn't something you can do repeatedly in a fight, as the threshold increases after each successful mount.
- During mounting, you engage in a mini-game where you can perform different actions while the monster tries to shake you off.
- Optimal mounting strategy involves inflicting as much damage as possible and then using a finisher to maximize damage output.
- Managing your stamina gauge and the monster's movements are key to a successful mount.
- Utilizing the right attacks and finishing on difficult-to-reach wounds can enhance your overall effectiveness.
- Investing in skills like Master Mounter can lower the mounting threshold for smoother hunts.
