About this guide

Monster Hunter Wilds is a game about learning one fight at a time, and this guide is the checklist for that. 32 of the 34 large monsters with their species and the locales they live in (Omega Planetes and Gogmazios, added in Title Updates 3 and 4, are not in the tracker yet), the 14 weapon types and what each one actually asks of you — patience, timing, or a system to master — the hidden and event-quest armor sets with the material or quest that unlocks each, and the five regions of the Forbidden Lands with the weather cycle that changes which monsters you meet there. Tick a monster off once you have hunted it and the tracker follows you across devices and save slots. There is no best weapon here and no single right order; what there is, is a loop — hunt something, wear it, hunt the thing that would have killed you before — and a list of everything the loop contains. Written from public sources and cross-checked against several, with each page saying what it was checked against and where the sources could not settle a detail.
