In *Monster Hunter Wilds*, simply crafting new armor sets isn't always the best strategy. Sometimes, upgrading your current armor is the key to tackling tougher challenges. Let's dive into how you can acquire and utilize Armor Spheres to enhance your gear.
Getting Armor Spheres in Monster Hunter Wilds
Armor Spheres are primarily obtained as rewards for completing quests in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. You'll start receiving them after you defeat Uth Duna for the first time. From then on, both main and optional quests will reward you with Armor Spheres.
To see what rewards a quest offers, select it from your journal and press the R1 button to view the rewards list. After a successful hunt, you'll find your rewards displayed on the results screen. Armor Spheres are farmable, meaning you'll accumulate a good number of them by playing through the main story and tackling optional quests diligently.
How to Use Armor Spheres
Armor Spheres are crucial for upgrading your armor pieces. At base camp, talk to Gemma the smithy and choose to either forge or upgrade your armor. Select an already crafted piece of gear, then press R1 to switch to the Upgrade tab. Choose the item you wish to upgrade, and you'll need to spend Armor Spheres along with some Zenny. Keep in mind that the cost to upgrade increases as you reach higher levels.
