"Armor Spheres in Monster Hunter Wilds: Acquisition and Usage Guide"

In *Monster Hunter Wilds*, simply forging new armor sets isn't always the best strategy. Upgrading your existing gear can be a smarter move to tackle the tougher challenges that lie ahead. Here’s how to obtain and effectively use Armor Spheres in *Monster Hunter Wilds*.

Getting Armor Spheres in Monster Hunter Wilds

Armor Spheres are primarily awarded as quest rewards in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. You'll receive them for completing both main and optional quests throughout the game. As you advance in the main storyline, Armor Spheres become part of your rewards after defeating Uth Duna for the first time. From that point onward, most main and optional quests will offer Armor Spheres as rewards.

To see what rewards are up for grabs, select a quest from your journal and press the R1 button to view the rewards list. Once you successfully complete a hunt, you'll see your rewards on the results screen. This makes Armor Spheres relatively easy to farm. You'll naturally accumulate a good number of them by progressing through the main story, and even more if you tackle optional quests as they become available.

How to Use Armor Spheres

Armor Spheres are crucial for upgrading your armor pieces. When you're back at base camp, chat with Gemma the smithy and opt to either forge new gear or upgrade existing pieces. Choose the gear you want to enhance, then press R1 to navigate to the Upgrade tab. Select the item for upgrading, and you'll need to use Armor Spheres along with some Zenny to proceed. Keep in mind, the higher the upgrade level, the more costly it becomes to reach the next level.
