In *Monster Hunter Wilds*, simply forging new armor sets isn't always the answer. At times, upgrading your existing gear is a smarter move to tackle the increasingly tough challenges. Here's a comprehensive guide on acquiring and utilizing Armor Spheres in *Monster Hunter Wilds*.
Getting Armor Spheres in Monster Hunter Wilds
Armor Spheres are primarily obtained as rewards from completing quests in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. This includes both main storyline quests and optional side missions.
As you progress through the main story, you'll start receiving Armor Spheres as rewards after defeating Uth Duna for the first time. From that point onward, nearly all main and optional quests will offer Armor Spheres as part of their rewards.
To see what rewards a quest offers, select it from your journal and press the R1 button to view the rewards list. Once you successfully complete a hunt, you'll receive your rewards on the results screen.
This makes Armor Spheres relatively easy to farm. You'll naturally accumulate a good number of them by playing through the main story, but you can boost your collection significantly by diligently completing optional quests as they become available.
How to Use Armor Spheres
Armor Spheres are crucial for upgrading your armor pieces. To use them, head to base camp and speak with Gemma the smithy. Choose to either forge or upgrade your armor. Select a piece of gear you've already crafted, 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 progress to higher levels.
That's the complete guide on how to get and use Armor Spheres in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. For more tips and detailed information on the game, make sure to visit The Escapist.
