Monster Hunter Wilds provides a detailed character creator. To modify your hunter or palico's appearance after initial creation:

  1. Access your base camp.
  2. Enter your tent.
  3. Navigate to the Appearance Menu (using L1 or R1).
  4. Select "Change Appearance." This will reopen the character creator, enabling adjustments to both your hunter and palico's physical features.

Modifying Outfits and Utilizing Layered Armor

The Layered Armor system is available from the game's outset. To change your outfit:

  1. Access your tent.
  2. Open the Appearance Menu.
  3. Choose "Equipment Appearance."

This allows customization using unlocked layered armor pieces. Note: You cannot directly transmog equipped armor with other forged armor sets. A similar "Palico Equipment Appearance" option exists for your palico's attire. Forging and equipping new armor remains an alternative method to change your outfit, though remember that armor pieces offer varying stats.

Seikret Customization Options

The Appearance Menu also includes "Seikret Customization," allowing adjustments to your Seikret's:

  • Skin and feather color
  • Patterns
  • Decoration type
  • Eye color

By following these steps, you can fully personalize your hunter, palico, and Seikret in Monster Hunter Wilds. For more gaming tips and guides, visit The Escapist.
