In *Monster Hunter Wilds*, simply crafting new armor sets isn't always the best strategy. Sometimes, upgrading your existing gear to tackle tougher challenges is the smarter move. Here's a detailed guide on how to acquire and utilize Armor Spheres in *Monster Hunter Wilds*.
Getting Armor Spheres in Monster Hunter Wilds
Armor Spheres are primarily obtained as rewards for completing quests in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. Whether you're tackling main story missions or engaging in optional quests, these spheres are a common reward.
As you advance through the main narrative, you'll start receiving Armor Spheres after defeating Uth Duna for the first time. From that point onward, most main and optional quests will offer Armor Spheres as part of their rewards.
To see what rewards a quest offers, open your quest journal, select a quest, and press the R1 button to view the rewards list. Upon successfully completing a hunt, you'll receive your rewards on the results screen.
Thanks to their availability as quest rewards, Armor Spheres are relatively easy to farm. You'll naturally accumulate a substantial amount by progressing through the main story, and even more if you diligently complete all the optional quests as they become available.
How to Use Armor Spheres
Armor Spheres are crucial for upgrading your armor pieces. To upgrade, head to base camp and speak with Gemma the smithy. Choose to either forge new gear or upgrade existing items. Select the armor piece you want to enhance, 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 higher the upgrade level, the more resources it will cost to reach the next level.
