In *Monster Hunter Wilds*, forging new armor sets is just part of the journey. To truly conquer the game's challenges, upgrading your existing armor using Armor Spheres is a crucial step. Here's a detailed guide on how to obtain and utilize these essential items.
Getting Armor Spheres in Monster Hunter Wilds
Armor Spheres are primarily obtained as quest rewards in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. You'll start receiving them after completing main and optional quests, particularly following your first victory against Uth Duna. From that point onward, nearly all quests will offer Armor Spheres as part of their rewards.
To see what rewards you can earn, select a quest from your journal and press the R1 button to view the rewards list. After successfully completing a hunt, you'll receive your rewards on the results screen. This makes Armor Spheres quite farmable; you'll naturally accumulate a good number of them by progressing through the main story and diligently tackling optional quests as they become available.
How to Use Armor Spheres
Armor Spheres are vital for upgrading your armor pieces. To use them, head to the base camp and speak with Gemma the smithy. Choose to either forge or upgrade your armor. Select a piece of gear you've already crafted, then press R1 to switch to the Upgrade tab. Choose the item you wish to upgrade, and you'll need to provide Armor Spheres along with some Zenny. Keep in mind that the cost to upgrade increases as the level of the armor piece gets higher.
