How To Unlock and Obtain Decorations in Monster Hunter Wilds

After defeating the Black Flame during Chapter 2 – 4 ‘Long Forgotten Flame’ quest in the  Oilwell Basin region, you will receive a Mystery Orb, an appraisal item that later turns into a decoration. 

Then, Gemma will introduce the ‘Decorations’ as a new feature in her workshop at Windward Plains Base Camp. The orbs can be automatically appraised and converted into decorative items at the end of the hunt. Decorations come in three rarities—level one, two, and three.

You can obtain the decorative jewels randomly by completing High-Rank hunts. Additionally, you can craft and acquire decorations using the Melding Pot by interacting with Vio in Suja. 

How To Equip and Use Decorations in Monster Hunter Wilds

To equip decorations, your equipment must have available slots. You need at least a level 1 slot to assign decorations. You can check whether the equipment has a slot by viewing the Slots row in the Equipment Info section.

To equip a decoration, follow these steps:

• Interact with Gemma, the Blacksmithy, to access the Change Equipment option from the Equipment Menu.
• You can also access this option at your base camp or pop-up camp.
• On the Change Equipment screen, hit the Right D-pad on a controller or ‘D’ on PC.
• This will bring up the decoration menu with the available slots for your weapons and armor. 
• Click on a slot, then choose and assign your desired decoration from the Decoration Box section. 

After equipping a decoration, registering it in equipment loadout allows you to easily change your equipment and decorations when needed.
