The resplendent plumage of a Seikret <\/strong>is one of the first sights during your adventure in Monster Hunter Wilds<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n

These are giant bipedal bird-like creatures that serve as your mount in the game. These wyverns\u00a0are like a jack of all trades, as far as adventuring goes. They can dash across the land, climb up vined walls, and even aid you during fights.<\/p>\n

Monster Hunter Wilds <\/em>shows you early on how to call and ride your Seikret. However, the mount has several other practical uses in the game that you either learn about later or aren\u2019t explicitly told about ever. Below, we\u2019ve rounded up a variety of seikrets tips that will help you take full advantage of your Seikret in Monster Hunter Wilds<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Seikrets can auto move to any icon on the map<\/h2>\n

\"An<\/p>\n

Seikrets have an auto move feature where your mount will run to a specific point for a quest. Sometimes, the game uses this feature automatically for certain quests and assignments<\/a>, but you can use it at any point to go to any icon on a map. This is by far the easiest way to find various resources in Monster Hunter Wilds<\/em>.<\/p>\n

To use it, open the map and use the map cursor to highlight any icon on the map, like a particular monster or resource. Once you do so, press in on the right thumbstick to \u201cSet Waypoint\u201d on the map. Once you close the map, your Seikret will automatically run to that point.<\/p>\n

\n

Seikrets can be actually useful in a fight<\/h2>\n

\"An<\/p>\n

Sometimes an injured monster will run away and you\u2019ll have to chase it. Riding your Seikret is the easiest way to pursue it, but your trusty mount can aid you in several other ways while hunting. <\/p>\n

If you are struggling with a particular fight, your Seikret can scoop you up and take you to a safe spot quickly. This is helpful if you need to use your Whetstone or heal, but I also used my Seikret to take a breather during certain fights and evaluate the attack pattern of the monster.<\/p>\n

Additionally, I found the dismount attacks you use by jumping off the Seikret to be incredibly helpful in fights (like against Doshaguma<\/a> or Rathalos<\/a>). As a sword and shield user, dismount attacks were an easy way to either get some damage in and get up close to a monster<\/a>, or jump high enough to mount<\/a> it and attack it that way.<\/p>\n

\n

Seikrets can store additional equipment <\/h2>\n

\"An<\/p>\n

Your Seikret can store an extra set of equipment so you can change weapons<\/a> during a fight. This is great for tougher hunts, like Rey Dau<\/a>, because it means you can come prepared with a couple of weapons<\/a> suited to exploit the weaknesses of a particular monster \u2014 and that you can really make the most of the best weapon combos<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n

You can customize your Seikret<\/h2>\n

\"An<\/p>\n

Similar to how you can customize the appearance<\/a> of your hunter and Palico, you can also edit the look of your Seikret. You can edit your Seikret after you fully unlock Junafa, Windsong Village and talk to Nona. After you do that, you can go to your tent to edit the color scheme and other parts of your Seikret.<\/p>\n
