What changes in the endgame of Monster Hunter Wilds?
After completing the main campaign, new content is unlocked, thus expanding the hunting possibilities. Here are the main elements that make up the endgame of Wilds :
- Endgame campaign : an additional story that expands on the post-game events.
- New variations of monsters : more aggressive and powerful creatures.
- Higher ranks : more difficult challenges with better rewards.
- Upgraded equipment : level 8 armor and weapons.
- New skill systems : essential adornments and amulets for advanced builds.
Let's explore each of these points in detail.
New endgame campaign
The mystery surrounding the attack on the village of Nata deepens after the final battle. However, this is not the only threat. New missions emerge to challenge the hunters , including unknown monsters and stories that date back to events centuries ago.
This extra campaign isn't as extensive as the main one, but its importance is crucial for unlocking the endgame content of Monster Hunter Wilds . Ideally, you should follow the objectives directly until the end of chapter 6, at which point all the advanced content of the game will be accessible .
Also pay attention to side missions , as they guarantee rare items, upgrades, and bonuses essential for endgame progress.
Angry and ferocious monsters: the true test
The beasts you encountered during the campaign now return in more dangerous versions. The main new features are the Frenzied and Tempered .
Angry monsters
These enemies have been infected by the Gore Magala virus , making them extremely aggressive. Furthermore, the infection can affect other monsters and even the hunter, inflicting negative effects .
Initially, the contamination is restricted to the Frigid Escarpments , but there are indications that it could spread to other regions.
Fierce monsters
These are veterans of brutal battles, covered in scars and far more resilient than their normal counterparts. In addition to the increased difficulty, hunting them yields ancient materials and armor orbs , essential for upgrading your equipment.
High-level equipment and Artillery weapons
One of the main objectives in the endgame of Monster Hunter Wilds is to upgrade your equipment to face the toughest challenges.
Level 8 weapons and armor offer improved stats, increased defense, and special abilities . Therefore, the key to optimizing your build is choosing a set that matches your playstyle.
Artian weapons: full customization
A new feature in the endgame is Artian weapons , which allow you to choose up to three basic attributes (attack, affinity, and elemental damage) before crafting them. Furthermore, these weapons can be upgraded up to five times, offering different bonuses as you progress.
In some situations, crafting an Artian weapon can be more efficient than farming a specific monster to obtain its traditional version.
Skills, adornments, and amulets: how to create the perfect build
Builds become more complex in the endgame of Monster Hunter Wilds , requiring careful planning.
How to choose the best skills?
Each weapon has a set of abilities that can enhance its performance. Some are straightforward, such as increased elemental damage , while others require advanced knowledge, such as Agitator , which increases attack whenever a monster becomes enraged.
Ornaments and amulets
Ornaments serve to reinforce or add new abilities to your weapons and armor. Each piece of equipment has a limited number of slots , so ideally you should balance the attributes to maximize their efficiency.
On the other hand, amulets grant unique bonuses. They can be used strategically, such as poison resistance against Rathian or immunity to tremors when facing Deviljho .
The importance of food in the endgame
Food has always been a fundamental aspect of the franchise, and in Monster Hunter Wilds it has been redesigned for greater convenience. Now, meal bonuses last between 30 and 60 minutes , consuming time only when the player is on a mission.
The most potent dishes are served by NPCs in the villages , offering extra benefits. Keep an eye on the map , as alerts will indicate when these meals are available .
Support ship: rare materials and ready weapons
The support ship functions like the old Argosy , bringing exclusive materials and even ready-to-use rarity 5 weapons . It arrives periodically, so keep an eye out so you don't miss good opportunities .
