To swap weapons, first summon your Seikret. While mounted, press right on the directional pad (or X on PC). This instantly equips your secondary weapon. Recall your Seikret at any time by pressing up on the directional pad.

Alternatively, manage your weapon loadout at Base Camp. Speak with Gemma, access your weapon inventory, and designate your preferred weapons as primary or secondary. Your primary weapon is readily available, while the secondary is stored on the Seikret. This arrangement is fully customizable.

The ability to utilize two weapon types provides a considerable advantage. While mastering a single weapon is advisable, versatility is key. Proficiency with multiple weapons allows you to adapt to diverse threats and unexpected monster encounters during quests. Consider carrying weapons with varying elemental properties for optimal effectiveness.
