How to Mount a Monster in Monster Hunter Wilds

Equipping yourself with the best weapons and gear in *Monster Hunter Wilds* is crucial, yet understanding how to control the battlefield is paramount. Mounting a monster allows you to steer it into traps, initiate clashes with other monsters, and enhance your team's attack strategy.

Successfully mounting a monster depends on several factors, including timing, the damage you inflict, the monster's resistance to mounting attempts, and your chosen weapon. Mounting is a versatile tactic that can be used both to defeat and capture monsters, aligning with your specific goals.

Use High Cliffs or Ledges

The simplest way to mount is by utilizing the environment. If the area offers cliffs or ledges higher than the monster, use them to your advantage.

Quickly auto-climb to a vantage point. If the monster isn't distracted by your allies or other players, speed is essential to prevent it from following you. Position yourself at the edge and wait for the monster to pass beneath. At the perfect moment, leap onto it. Once mounted, use your knife and weapon attacks to maintain control for as long as possible.

Seikret Dismount Attack

This technique is perfect for those who favor ranged weapons like the Bow. While riding your Seikret, approach the monster and execute a dismount attack. As you leap off, perform an aerial slash towards the monster, which could give you the opportunity to mount it immediately after.

Aerial Weapon Attacks

Ideal for melee weapon users, especially those wielding the Insect Glaive, which excels in aerial combat. By consistently executing air-based attacks, you can naturally set up the monster for mounting, seamlessly integrating this tactic into your combat flow.
