How To Mount in Monster Hunter Wilds

Mastering the art of mounting in Monster Hunter Wilds is crucial for victory. This guide details various methods to subdue your prey and gain the upper hand. Effective mounting hinges on timing, damage output, the monster's mount resistance, and your weapon choice. Mounting is valuable for both defeating and capturing monsters.

While superior weaponry is important, controlling the battle through mounting is paramount. Mounting allows you to trap monsters, instigate inter-monster fights, and unleash devastating allied attacks.

Several strategies exist for mounting:

Utilizing High Ground

If the environment allows, utilize high cliffs. Quickly ascend before the monster follows. As it approaches, time your leap onto its back. Maintain control with continuous knife and weapon attacks while mounted.

Seikret Dismount Attack

Ideal for ranged weapons like the Bow, this involves a dismount aerial slash attack from your Seikret while near the monster. A successful attack often leads to a mount opportunity.

Aerial Weapon Attacks

Perfect for melee weapons, especially the Insect Glaive. Consistent aerial attacks are key to mounting, making this a natural progression within your combat flow.
