The default Seikret controls in Monster Hunter Wilds<\/strong> are not ideal. One minute you\u2019re trying to pick up an item close to you while on your trusty bird, the next you and your Seikret are falling off a nearby ledge. Here are some settings you might want to change to get a better grasp on your fine feathered friend: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Turn off Auto-Explore <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

From the Start menu, open \u201cOptions\u201d and go to the third page of the \u201cGame Settings\u201d tab. It is here where you\u2019ll find \u201cSeikret Auto-Explore,\u201d which automatically sets your Seikret to wander the map even when you haven\u2019t placed a waypoint. Turning this option off cuts down some of the Seikret\u2019s autopilot settings, but not all of them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Monster<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For precise movements, switch over to Type 2 Seikret Manual Controls <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To get to the heart of your Seikret control issues, you\u2019ll want to open the Start menu, choose \u201cOptions\u201d again, and go to the second page of the \u201cControls\u201d tab. It is here where you\u2019ll find \u201cSeikret Manual Controls,\u201d which is set to \u201cType 1\u201d by default. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The \u201cType 1\u201d controls function similarly to Auto-move controls, whereby the accelerate input increases your Seikret\u2019s speed, pressing the brake input slows it down, and holding the brake input stops itcompletely. It is important to know that pressing nothing while on \u201cType 1\u201d controls retains your current speed (which is why your Seikret never seems to stop). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Monster<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

To make your Seikret more responsive to your inputs, you\u2019ll want to switch over to \u201cType 2\u201d controls. \u201cType 2\u201d works similarly to how you control your hunter on foot, in that your Seikret will only move when you\u2019re pressing any of the directional inputs. The accelerate and brake inputs still work as they did in \u201cType 1,\u201d but pressing nothing will cause your Seikret to come to a halt. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Auto-move can still be turned on at any time by setting a waypoint and pressing the associated input on your system. Switching to Manual Movement mode is done similarly with its own input, only without the need to set a waypoint.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Monster<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The second page of the \u201cControls\u201d tab is where you\u2019ll find a handy list of options for adjusting your Seikret controls. You can manually set which inputs are needed to call your Seikret with \u201cCall Seikret Controls.\u201d Likewise, you can choose what movement mode your Seikret will be in when you call them using a Radial menu shortcut with \u201cCall Seikret Controls (Radial Menu).\u201d While you could spend hours fiddling with Monster Hunter Wilds\u2019 available options<\/a>, switching your manual control type to \u201cType 2\u201d should do a sufficient job of keeping your Seikret from going berserk.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
