You won't get far in Monster Hunter Wilds without items. It is a basic tip to learn, but having easy access to your most needed items is just as important as mastering your weapons or calling in your friends to join in on the hunt. Your radial menu allows you to quickly select and use all your equipment on the fly, but may not be set up how you want it by default. Thankfully you can easily customize this menu so all the items you want are in the places that feel most natural.

How to customize the radial menu

The radial menu is your shortcut menu that you can pop open by holding L1 on consoles. Once open, you can easily select an item by pointing your stick in any of the four directions plus change categories with the D-pad.

Step 1: Once you have access to your base camp, visit your tent or pause the game and go under the Items & Equipment menu.

Step 2: Select the Customize Radial Menu option

Step 3: You will have 36 total loadouts you can customize. Choose any blank one to begin customizing it.

Step 4: You can now choose from all your items set them to one of 12 slots. If you place something in the wrong place and want to swap it, press Sort Radial Menus and you can swap the locations of two items without removing and readding them to the loadout.

Step 5: Once you have all your items set how you like, press the Manage Loadouts button.

Step 6: Choose an empty loadout slot and press Register Loadout to add your new radial menu to that slot.

Step 7: Once set, make sure to highlight and press Use Loadout to make it active.

You can also use the sub menu to rename a loadout, set an emblem, or delete it to make room for a new one.

You can also press the sub menu button to share your loadout with friends to let them easily use the same loadout you created.

The Assassin's Creed games have always been open-world titles that set you loose in a variety of historical locations. Assassin's Creed Shadows is no different, save for the introduction of the long-requested Japanese setting and dual protagonists. While you're earning XP and getting deeper into the game's story, it will become less and less viable to travel by foot or horse between objectives. That's where fast travel comes into play, but the system works slightly differently in this entry than usual. Here's how fast travel works inĀ Assassin's Creed Shadows.
How to use fast travel

The core of the fast travel system in Assassin's Creed Shadows should be familiar to anyone who has played the series before. You will unlock viewpoints at set locations by climbing up to high points and synchronizing to give yourself a fast travel point, but there is another map marker you can use to fast travel as well. A new building called Kakurega are featured in most major towns and villages in the game that need to be unlocked by purchasing them with Mon. Once you do, they provide you with another fast travel point.

How to farm Armor Spheres in Monster Hunter Wilds
The most lucrative method of farming Armor Spheres in Monster Hunter Wilds is to defeat High Rank monsters and smelt extra monster materials for Armor Spheres.

As you tackle the same monsters over and over again, you'll start to collect an overabundance of materials. When you don't need them anymore, take them to the Smelting Foundry so they can become Armor Spheres.
