Top 10 best Monster Hunter Wilds mods
Whenever a game drops on PC, you can bet the fandom won’t waste time whipping up mods. Monster Hunter Wilds players didn't miss a beat, crafting add-ons I hope to see in future updates. Here's a roundup of the best MH Wilds mods you need to download now. Increase Monster Hunter Wilds' Difficulty Image via Furiante/NexusMods If you've been perusing the Monster Hunter Wilds forums, there's usually a heated debate on whether the game is too easy compared to its predecessors. Those who lean more on it being too easy can try out Furiante's mod to increase monster HP and damage. It works slightly similarly to the High-Rank version of these monsters, but this time, you don't have to wait until the endgame stages to encounter them. Monster Health Bar Image via GreenComfyTea/NexusMods Among all the sought-after features, a monster health bar is undoubtedly at the top of the wish list. While I get the realism behind its absence, I still wouldn't mind having one present. Thankfully, GreenComfyTea's mod delivers—showing health bars for every monster and letting you track just how long it'll take to eliminate them. Buff Glow Removal Image via Peasly Wellbott/NexusMods Upon activating a buff from meals or Talismans, a glow will appear around your character's body to demonstrate its brute strength. It's a pretty cool visual, but it can get a tad annoying when it refuses to turn off. To get rid of it completely, use Peasly Wellbott's Persistent Buff Glow Removal mod. Your character will return to normal with it, which is perfect for Photo Mode opportunities. Enhance Performance Image via VANILLA/NexusMods Since Monster Hunter Wilds was released, many PC players have noted a downgrade in performance. There are a few ways to fix it, whether with setting adjustments or mods. For the add-on route, install Vanilla's mod for better visuals and stability, reducing CPU usage by 10 to 15% percent. You'll also receive a 10+ FPS upgrade to help with any lag issues. Skip the Intro Logos Image via lingsamuel/NexusMods Every time you start your Monster Hunter Wilds playthrough, you're stuck enduring a drawn-out introduction. But with lingsamuel's mod, you can completely bypass that hassle. Say goodbye to pressing endless buttons just to reach the start screen and dive straight into the action. Wilds Reshade Tool Image via ISpectre23/NexusMods Although the MH Wilds cutscenes are stunning to look at, sometimes the in-game content has a bit of a shading problem. You can fix this with ISpectre23's Wilds Rehydrated mod, which provides a clearer picture of monsters, characters, and the surrounding environment. It doesn't come at the cost of performance, so you'll have both advantages of user-friendly gameplay and breathtaking visuals. Auto Item Pouch Restock Image via archwizard1204/NexusMods In all the time I spent playing Monster Hunter Wilds for my review, the one thing I wish I had (apart from the monster health bar) is a restock option for pouches. That's where archwizard1204's mod comes in to save the day, replenishing items from your last loadout and ammo pouch. This includes your inventory in your camp and the Seikret's pouch. Skip Pouch Replace Prompt Image via Peasly Wellbott/NexusMods Another exceptional mod from Peasly Wellbott dismisses the 'Your item pouch is full' prompt. If you aren't familiar with this notification, it pops up every time you pick up an item while your inventory is full, forcing you to select 'Yes' a bunch of times. I've gone through this on multiple occasions, so having this add-on is a life-saver. Highlight Enemy Scars and Weak Points Screenshot by Destructoid NexusMod user lingsamuel comes in clutch once again with their Highlight Enemy Scars and Weak Points mod. Since it can be challenging to activate your Focus Mode at times, this add-on will automatically show you spots like Wounds without the press of a button. Note that the mod requires the Cat Lib add-on, providing necessary resource packs. Suppressed Scoutflies Image via Peasly Wellbott/NexusMods I know I've already placed two Peasly Wellbott creations on this best Monster Hunter Wilds mod list, but I just have to add one more. Using their Supressed Scoutflies mod reduces the glowing effects of these critters, which can sometimes take over the entire screen. Now, you don't have to constantly see the Scoutflies' tracks while on a hunt or scavenging mission. The post Top 10 best Monster Hunter Wilds mods appeared first on Destructoid.
