"Monster Hunter Wilds: Seasons and Weather Details Revealed"

In *Monster Hunter Wilds*, the dynamic seasons and weather of the Forbidden Lands significantly influence gameplay, going beyond mere visual changes. Here's a comprehensive guide to understanding and navigating the seasons and weather in the game.

Monster Hunter Wilds Seasons, Explained

*Monster Hunter Wilds* features two distinct seasons that shape the environment of the Forbidden Lands: Fallow and Plenty. The game begins in the Fallow season, characterized by its harsh climate and intense weather events. Resources are scarce, leading to increased aggression among monsters, who frequently engage in combat with each other. This challenging environment tests your survival skills to the limit.

In contrast, the Season of Plenty offers a much more welcoming atmosphere. With abundant flora and a visually vibrant environment, this season is less hostile. Small monsters are less aggressive and less likely to travel in packs. The abundance of Endemic Life and plants during Plenty makes it a time of prosperity and celebration for both the villagers and players of *Monster Hunter Wilds*.

Between these seasons, you'll encounter brief but intense weather events known as Inclemency. These events heighten the weather's intensity and set the stage for dramatic battles against Apex Predators. For instance, during the Pinnacle of the Pack Assignment, you'll face the Alpha Doshaguma amidst the Sandtide, a fierce lightning-filled sandstorm. These unique weather events add an extra layer of challenge and excitement to your encounters with Apex Predators.

How To Check the Seasons and Weather in Monster Hunter Wilds

Keeping track of the seasons and weather in *Monster Hunter Wilds* is crucial for planning your hunts effectively. The game's HUD displays icons in the bottom left corner, indicating the current time of day and season.

Additionally, Optional Quests in *Monster Hunter Wilds* are set in specific times and seasons, temporarily transporting you to these conditions regardless of the current season in the main game world.

How To Change the Season and Weather in Monster Hunter Wilds

Given the significant impact of seasons on the flora and fauna in the Forbidden Lands, you might find it advantageous to switch between Fallow and Plenty based on your hunting needs. Fortunately, *Monster Hunter Wilds* allows you to change the seasons and weather.

To do this, set up your tent and rest. Within the tent, navigate to the BBQ Menu and select Rest. Here, you can adjust the Environment and Time at which your Hunter will wake up, effectively changing the season and weather.

However, resting comes at a cost of 300 Guild Points and is only available to Hunters of High Rank. Remember, you cannot rest during an active quest, so plan your changes accordingly.
