Monster Hunter Wilds Best Gathering Set
When your mission is to gather materials in *Monster Hunter Wilds*, choosing the right armor set is key. Here's the optimal gathering armor set for maximizing your efficiency:
- Sild Hood
- Conga Mail or Melahoa Jacket
- G. Rathalos Vambraces or Leather Gloves
- High Metal Coil or Suja Sash
- Azuz Pants
- Marathon Charm or Intimidator Charm
The Sild Hood is essential, providing the Botanist skill, which is crucial for gathering. I prefer using Intimidator to avoid interruptions from small monsters, which is why I recommend the Conga Mail and Guardian Rathalos Vambraces. However, if other bonuses appeal to you, swapping them for Leather pieces is a viable option.
The Azuz Pants are non-negotiable, offering Geologist 3 to enhance your gathering efficiency significantly.
For the Charm slot, choose between Marathon and Intimidator based on your armor setup. If Intimidator isn't in your armor pieces, opt for the Intimidator Charm, and vice versa.
Best Gathering Skills
In addition to the right armor, having the correct active skills is crucial for gathering materials in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. Here are the key skills you should have:
| Skill | Effect |
|---|---|
| Botanist | Increases the quantity of herbs and other consumable items you gather. |
| Geologist | Increases the number of items you gain at gathering points. |
| Intimidator | Reduces the chance small monsters will attack after spotting you. Has no effect on certain monsters. |
| Aquatic/Oilslit Mobility | Grants resistance against impairments to mobility while in water, oilslit, or streams. |
| Entomologist | The bodies of small insect monsters won’t be destroyed, allowing them to be carved. |
| Outdoorsman | Improves fishing, grilling, and transporting abilities. |
In my experience, Botanist and Geologist are indispensable for your gathering set. Even if you don't have all the ideal armor pieces yet, prioritizing these skills will still boost your gathering efficiency. The other skills can be added as you progress.
