In Monster Hunter Wilds, Seikrets are incredibly useful companions to have, both in and out of battle. Apart from getting the Hunter from point A to B, riding the Seikret in battle can allow you to quickly evade monster attacks. While traversing the land, you can pick a waypoint on the map, and the Seikret can take you there automatically. But what if you don’t select a waypoint? That’s the exact setting that you can change using the Seikret auto-explore option from the game’s menu.

Before understanding how to disable the setting, you need to understand what it does. When toggled on, this setting causes your Seikret to freely move around the map, even when you haven’t set a waypoint or destination. On the other hand, turning it off will mean that the Seikret will not explore on its own with you on its back until you have set a specific destination to reach.

  • Step 1: Open the Options Menu.
  • Step 2: Go to the Game Setting Menu under Options.
  • Step 3: Reach Page 3 in the Game Settings to find the Seikret Auto-explore option.
