Monster Hunter Wilds introduces the Seikret - an avian mount that is your primary transportation across the Forbidden Lands. While the Seikret's exceptional mobility and automatic navigation make it an essential hunting companion, you might want to personalize its appearance to make it truly your own. This guide covers everything you need to know about customizing your Seikret in Monster Hunter Wilds.
How to Unlock Seikret Customization
You won't have access to Seikret customization immediately when you get your mount. You'll need to progress through the story to unlock full customization options. First, complete the main quest "Pursuit of Solitude" where you defeat the Alpha Doshaguma and save Kunafa, Windsong Village.
After that, speak with Nona in Kunafa (the little girl who was chased by Balahara in the intro) and select the dialogue option "I'd like to customize my Seikret." Once you've spoken with Nona, you'll permanently unlock Seikret customization at any base camp or tent through the Appearance Menu.
Where to Customize Your Seikret
You can customize your Seikret in two locations. The first option is at any Base Camp. Simply enter your tent at any base camp, pop-up camp, or campsite, then navigate to the Appearance Menu (the rightmost icon that looks like a head) and select "Seikret Customization."
Alternatively, you can visit Nona in Kunafa Village during daytime (she's unavailable at night as she's sleeping) and select "I'd like to customize my Seikret."
Available Customization Options
The Seikret customization system offers various options to personalize your mount:
Physical Appearance:
- Skin Color: Adjust the base color of your Seikret's skin
- Inner Feather Color: Change the color of the inner feathers
- Outer Feather Color: Modify the color of the outer feathers
- Pattern Thickness: Adjust how pronounced the feather patterns appear
- Pattern Color: Change the color of the feather patterns
- Pattern Transparency: Control how visible the patterns are
- Eye Color: Change your Seikret's eye color
- Edit Right Eye: Toggle to customize each eye independently
- Right Eye Color: Set a different color for the right eye if desired
Equipment and Accessories:
- Decoration Type: Change the saddle, reins, and armor style
- Pendant Type: Add decorative pendants that hang from the saddle
- Name: Give your Seikret a custom name
How to Get More Decorations and Pendants
You'll unlock additional customization options as you progress through the game through various methods. By completing chapter three of the main story and talking to Nata, you'll unlock additional pendants. Completing side missions in Kunafa once you reach High Rank (missions like "High-Quality Materials" or "A Leviathan's Temper") will reward you with more decoration options.
Special editions and DLC also provide exclusive customization items. The Deluxe Edition includes the "Soldier's Caparison" decoration, while the Premium Deluxe Edition includes both the "Soldier's Caparison" and "General's Caparison" decorations. If you played the beta and claimed rewards, you can equip the Stuffed Felyne Teddy as a pendant. Additional Seikret cosmetics are expected to be released as part of upcoming DLC packs, including Cosmetic DLC Pack 1 (Spring 2025) and Cosmetic DLC Pack 2 (Summer 2025).
That's everything you need to know about customizing your Seikret in Monster Hunter Wilds. Now you can make your new avian companion look exactly how you want as you journey across the Forbidden Lands together.
