In the thrilling world of *Monster Hunter Wilds*, mastering your full range of abilities is essential for triumph. To truly dominate the battlefield and the beasts you face, understanding how to mount them is crucial. Here's a detailed guide on how to mount in *Monster Hunter Wilds*.

How To Mount a Monster in Monster Hunter Wilds

Equipping yourself with the best weapons and gear in *Monster Hunter Wilds* is vital, but mastering every aspect of the battle, including how to mount a monster, is your key to success. Mounting allows you to steer the monster into traps, provoke battles with other monsters, and enable your allies to deliver devastating attacks.

There are several methods to mount a monster, each depending on timing, the damage you inflict, the monster's resistance to mounting, and the weapon you choose. Mounting can be a strategic move for both defeating and capturing monsters, tailored to your goals.

Use High Cliffs or Ledges

The simplest approach is to leverage the environment by climbing to a higher cliffside if available. Quickly ascend to your chosen vantage point, especially if the monster is distracted by your allies or other players.

Wait for the monster to position itself below the ledge, then leap onto it at the perfect moment. Use your knife and weapon attacks while mounted to maintain control as long as possible.

Seikret Dismount Attack

For those favoring ranged weapons like the Bow, this technique involves executing a dismount attack from your Seikret near the monster. As you dismount, perform an aerial slash towards the monster, which may grant you the opportunity to mount it immediately afterward.

Aerial Weapon Attacks

Ideal for melee weapon enthusiasts, especially those wielding the Insect Glaive, which excels in aerial maneuvers. By continuously attacking from the air, you can naturally transition into a mounting opportunity, making this method seamless within your combat flow.
