In *Monster Hunter Wilds*, simply forging new armor sets isn't always the best strategy. At times, upgrading your existing armor can be more beneficial to tackle the increasingly tough challenges. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to acquire and utilize Armor Spheres in *Monster Hunter Wilds*.
Getting Armor Spheres in Monster Hunter Wilds
Armor Spheres are primarily obtained as rewards for completing quests in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. This includes both main story quests and optional side quests. As you advance through the game's narrative, you'll start receiving Armor Spheres after defeating Uth Duna for the first time. From that point onward, nearly all quests following Uth Duna will offer Armor Spheres as part of their rewards.

To see what rewards you can earn, select a quest from your journal and press the R1 button to view the rewards list. Upon successfully completing a hunt, you'll receive your rewards on the results screen. This makes Armor Spheres quite farmable. You'll naturally accumulate a good number of them by progressing through the main story, and even more if you diligently complete all available optional quests.
How to Use Armor Spheres

Armor Spheres are crucial for upgrading your armor pieces. To do this, head to the base camp and speak with Gemma, the smithy. Choose the option to forge or upgrade your armor. Select a piece of gear you've already crafted, then press R1 to switch to the Upgrade tab. Choose the item you wish to upgrade, and you'll need to spend Armor Spheres along with some Zenny. Keep in mind that the cost to upgrade increases as the level of the armor piece gets higher.
