Changing Appearance in Monster Hunter Wilds (Hunter and Palico)

Monster Hunter Wilds offers an in-depth character creator that allows you to craft an avatar that can resemble your real-life appearance closely. If you decide to tweak your character mid-game, you can do so effortlessly. After unlocking the base camp, head to your tent and navigate to the Appearance Menu using L1 or R1. Select the "Change Appearance" option to revisit the character creator and make adjustments to both your Hunter and Palico's looks.

How to Change Outfits and Use Layered Armor

The Layered Armor feature becomes available right from the start of Monster Hunter Wilds. To utilize this, head to your tent, access the Appearance Menu, and choose "Equipment Appearance." Here, you can customize your Hunter's outfit to your liking, though you're restricted to the Layered Armor items you've unlocked. Note that you can't transmog your equipped armor with other armor types you've forged.

Your Palico also has an "Equipment Appearance" option, allowing you to dress it up with Layered Armor items.

If the Layered Armor options don't meet your style, the only other way to change your outfit is by forging and equipping new armor. Keep in mind that each piece of equipment has different stats, so balancing fashion with functionality is key.

Seikret Customization

For those interested in personalizing your Seikret, the Appearance Menu offers a "Seikret Customization" option. Here, you can alter the Seikret's skin and feather colors, and tweak various settings such as its pattern, decoration type, and even its eye color.

And that’s how you can change your outfits and appearance in Monster Hunter Wilds. For more tips and detailed information on the game, be sure to visit The Escapist.
