Character customization is a vital aspect of any role-playing game, and *Monster Hunter Wilds* offers a robust system that lets you tailor your character to your heart's content. If you're curious about how to tweak your character's appearance in *Monster Hunter Wilds*, here's a detailed guide to help you through the process.
Changing Appearance in Monster Hunter Wilds (Hunter and Palico)
Let's dive into your character's physical appearance in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. The game boasts an in-depth character creator that lets you craft an avatar that can closely resemble you in real life. If you decide you want to make adjustments later on, you're in luck. After unlocking the base camp, simply head to your tent and navigate to the Appearance Menu by pressing L1 or R1. Select the "Change Appearance" option, and you'll regain access to the character creator, allowing you to fine-tune the looks of both your Hunter and Palico.
How to Change Outfits and Use Layered Armor
The Layered Armor feature is available from the very beginning of *Monster Hunter Wilds*. Head to your tent, access the Appearance Menu, and then choose "Equipment Appearance." This option lets you customize your Hunter's outfit to your liking, but remember, you're restricted to the Layered Armor items you've unlocked. Unfortunately, you can't transmog your equipped armor with other types you've crafted in the game.
There's also a setting for "Palico Equipment Appearance," which lets you apply Layered Armor items to your Palico. If the Layered Armor options don't quite meet your style, the only other way to change your outfit is by forging and equipping new armor. Keep in mind, though, that each piece of equipment has different stats, so balancing fashion with function is key.
Seikret Customization
Lastly, don't forget about Seikret Customization, accessible through the Appearance Menu. Here, you can alter the Seikret's skin and feather colors, as well as tweak its pattern, decoration type, and even its eye color.
That's the complete rundown on how to change your outfits and appearance in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. For more tips and information on the game, be sure to check out The Escapist.
