What Can You Do at the Training Area?

Calculate Damage Output

Monster Hunter Wilds' Training Area allows you to see your damage output and practice combos. Try out the usability of all 14 weapon types, find your favorite weapon, and practice for hunting. You can change weapons at the camp close to the area as well.

Use Settings to Show Damage Output

You can see exactly how much damage you are dealing. The settings for this are at the top "Game Setting", you can turn on the damage display there. Note that you can't change it on the title screen, so you need to change it in-game.

Talk to Palico Meownager

Training settings can be configured by talking to Palico Meownager in the training area. Various settings can be made, including your partner's training behavior and attack, so give it a try.

Training Settings List

Practice Counters

You can also practice countering attacks by changing the settings so that your training partner attacks you. We recommend Big Bang / Overhead Smash mode as it is the easiest to practice with.

Wedge Beetle and Hook Slinger

A Wedge Beetle is installed in the air in the center of the training area. You can practice hanging on the Wedge Beetle with the Hook Slinger and other weapon actions in the air.

Items Are Not Consumed

Items used in the training area are not consumed. You can also measure damage when using attack-increasing items such as the Demon drug.

You can return to Base Camp by going to the exit of the training area or by talking to Palico Meownager. Do this if you are returning to the Base Camp
