Acquiring Armor Spheres

Armor Spheres are primarily awarded as quest rewards in Monster Hunter Wilds. Completing both main and optional quests yields these valuable resources.

Farming Armor Spheres is relatively straightforward. Progressing through the main story provides a steady supply, supplemented by diligently completing optional quests.

Utilizing Armor Spheres

Armor Spheres are essential for armor upgrades. At the base camp, interact with Gemma, the smithy. Select the "forge/upgrade" option, choose a crafted armor piece, and press R1 to access the upgrade menu.

Select the desired item and provide the necessary Armor Spheres and Zenny to upgrade. Note that upgrade costs increase with each subsequent level.
