How to Make Combat Much Easier in Monster Hunter Wilds with a Hidden Setting

Combat in Monster Hunter Wilds can be incredibly tricky, especially for newcomers. With complex weapon movesets, a variety of items to manage, and monsters constantly trying to take you down, it can feel overwhelming. But did you know that there’s a hidden setting that can make your combat experience much smoother?

Focus Mode and the Toggle Setting

One of the most crucial elements of combat in Monster Hunter Wilds is Focus Mode. By default, when you hold the left trigger (or ALT key on PC), Focus Mode activates, highlighting orange wounds on the monster. Hitting these wounds will deal extra damage and reward you with additional monster parts for crafting — it’s a win-win situation.

However, as the game progresses, fights become tougher, and trying to keep Focus Mode on while maneuvering around monsters can get cumbersome. Especially when you’re juggling various tasks during the battle, managing Focus Mode can become a bit of a hassle.

Here’s the good news: there’s an option to change Focus Mode to a toggle function. This allows you to turn Focus Mode on and off with the press of a button, freeing up your fingers to do other things. This setting is particularly useful for dual blades users, making combat much easier. However, ranged weapon players may not find this feature as beneficial.

How to Enable Toggle Focus Mode

Enabling this setting is simple. Just follow these steps:

  1. Open the pause menu and go to 'Options'.
  2. Navigate to the 'Controls' tab and flip to page 2 of 3.
  3. Under Aim/Focus Mode Controls, change the Melee Weapons mode from Activate Mode to Toggle Mode.

Additionally, to make Focus Mode even more comfortable to use, you can increase the camera sensitivity. This will ensure that you don’t get stuck moving too slowly while Focus Mode is active.

  1. Open the pause menu and go to 'Options'.
  2. Go to the 'Camera' tab and make sure you’re on page 1 of 4.
  3. Find the Camera Speed settings and increase both horizontal and vertical values to around 10.

With these settings, you can tap your Focus Mode button to activate it while attacking the monster and leave it on until you need to run away. For weapons like the Insect Glaive, Focus Mode even nudges you toward the monster, reducing the chances of missing your attacks.

Conclusion

Now, you’re ready to tackle those monsters with a whole new level of ease. By enabling the toggle Focus Mode and adjusting your camera sensitivity, combat will feel much smoother and more manageable. Give it a try — you might find it to be a game-changer in your hunt!

With these tips, you're all set to become a stronger, more efficient hunter. Happy hunting!

Monster Hunter Wilds: New Strategy for Spread Ammo Using Mounted Combat

In Monster Hunter Wilds , Heavy Bowgun (HBG) users have encountered a significant problem with Spread Ammo . While it excels in close-range combat, the high recoil and limited mobility make it challenging to use effectively in high-rank hunts. Despite decent damage, the lack of mobility makes it hard to justify when compared to other more agile and versatile ammo types like Pierce Ammo.

로스트 레코드 블룸 앤 레이지(Lost Records: Bloom and Rage) 리뷰 - 기억 속에 남을 걸작

"네가 죽더라도, 나는 너를 기억할 거야." 이 문장은 Lost Records: Bloom and Rage 의 첫 번째 챕터(Tape One) 중반부에 등장하는 대사로, 게임이 전달하고자 하는 핵심 메시지를 함축적으로 담고 있다. Don't Nod의 최신작인 Lost Records 는 청소년기의 복잡한 감정과 모순을 섬세하게 포착하며, 그 시절의 불완전한 자신감과 불안이 공존하는 순간들을 아름답게 그려낸다. 청소년기는 영원할 것처럼 느껴지면서도 한없이 깨지기 쉬운 시기다. 그리고 이 게임은 그 마법 같은 시간을 완벽하게 구현해낸다. 하지만 Lost Records 는 단순히 90년대의 향수를 불러일으키는 게임에 그치지 않는다.  이 작품의 중심에는 30년 가까이 묻혀 있던 초자연적인 미스터리가 자리 잡고 있으며, 네 명의 여성들이 다시 만나면서 과거의 어둠과 마주하는 이야기가 펼쳐진다. 우정, 정체성, 개성, 표현, 그리고 젊음에서 중년으로의 전환까지, 다양한 주제를 탐구하는 이 게임은 Don't Nod의 역대 최고의 작품 중 하나로 손꼽힐 만하다. 스토리 개요: 두 개의 시대를 넘나드는 미스터리 게임의 배경은 1995년 여름과 코로나19 팬데믹 이후의 현재, 두 개의 시대로 나뉘어 있다. 주인공 스완 할러웨이(Swann Holloway)는 어린 시절 겪었던 사건을 다시 되짚어 보기 위해 과거로 돌아간다. 이 모든 것은 오랜 친구인 가을(Autumn)로부터 연락을 받으면서 시작된다. 가을은 오랜 시간 연락이 끊긴 친구들에게 어떤 사람이 그들에 대한 진실을 알고 있으며, 의문의 소포를 보냈다고 전한다. 거의 30년간 단절된 네 명의 친구—스완, 가을, 노라(Nora), 캣(Kat)—은 결국 과거를 마주하기 위해 고향 벨벳 코브(Velvet Cove)로 돌아가게 된다. 이들은 왜 서로의 곁을 떠났으며, 과거에 어떤 끔찍한 일을 목격했거나 저질렀던 것일까? 이야기는 천천히 그러나 강렬하게 전개되며, 그 과정에서 플레이어는 초...
