Make Monster Hunter Wilds Combat Easier With This Focus Mode Change

by

You might be curious about why the Focus Mode in Monster Hunter Wilds can sometimes feel tricky to use. This feature helps you keep tabs on targets and deal massive damage when battling colossal beasts, but it can initially be difficult to master… until you customize the controls a bit. Our guide offers simple steps for streamlining combat and reducing tension during gameplay.

How to make combat easier with the Focus Mode toggle in Monster Hunter Wilds

The Focus Mode is a game feature designed to simplify combat encounters. To activate this mode, you need to continuously press a designated button such as L2/LT (on a gamepad), Left Alt (on a keyboard), or Mouse 4 (on a mouse). This allows you to lock onto and follow a target as it moves within the environment.

What stands out most is that it helps in distinguishing wounds more clearly. With each strike on a monster’s body, the wounds turn into prominent, bright red gashes when Focus Mode is turned on. This means that when you press the button for a Focus Strike, your character delivers a powerful, damaging blow.

As a gamer, I find the system in this game can be quite frustrating to navigate. It feels like I’m constantly holding down buttons during battles, trying to switch items, dodge attacks, and it all gets quite overwhelming. To make matters worse, some of the best weapons, such as the bow, become tricky due to the need to alternate between two ability sets or firing modes.

Luckily, solving the issue with Monster Hunter Wilds’ Focus Mode is straightforward. To get started, simply navigate to the menu, then select the Options screen. Inside the Controls section on the second page, you will find the solution for enabling or disabling the Focus Mode.

  • Aim/Focus Mode Controls
    • Melee Weapons
    • Ranged Weapons
  • The default setting is “Activate Mode,” but you should change it to “Toggle Mode.”
  • You can switch to Toggle Mode for either melee or ranged weapons, or both, depending on your control preference.

By making this adjustment, you can activate Focus Mode with a single press of the designated button or keybind. While your weapon is out, Focus Mode will stay on without requiring continuous button pressure. To turn it off, simply press the same button again or sheathe your weapon for quick deactivation.
