All secret armor sets in Monster Hunter Wilds

Here's how to get every hidden armor set in MH Wilds.

1

Monster Hunter Wilds' secret armor sets offer you a boost you can't find anywhere else and sometimes more than one. These sets live up to their name, though. Even unlocking the option to craft them takes time and no small amount of luck when it comes to item trading.

Our Monster Hunter Wilds secret armor guide lists each secret armor set, what skills it grants you, and how to unlock it. We're not including Artian Armor in this list, as you unlock it by completing a side quest, What We Protect.

All Monster Hunter Wilds secret armor sets

Almost every secret armor set in Monster Hunter Wilds requires a rare item you can only obtain through Nata's material gathering services or from item traders who might not even have the item you need for several in-game days. Item trading and material gathering only unlock once you reach Wilds' high-rank missions after completing the main campaign. In other words, don't expect to unlock these secret sets any time soon if you're just getting started.

All secret armor sets are alpha variants, which means they have more built-in skills, but fewer decoration slots.
