How to Start Turf Wars

Lure Monsters to Each Other

Turf Wars start when large monsters encounter each other in the open field. You can trigger monster fights yourself by luring one monster to another using the Luring Pod. When you hit a monster with a Luring Pod, you will see a red line between you and the monster, signifying that you're currently being targeted and that the monster will start to follow you.

Other than using the Luring Pod, Turf Wars typically happen every now and then, as monsters have a route they follow and travel through. Monster routes can merge, causing them to come into contact with each other.

Do note though that not every monster can initiate a Turf War with another. Although you can usually expect this mechanic to activate from more aggressive monsters in the game.

What are Turf Wars?

Monster Fights for Territory

Turf War is a mechanic that will trigger once two different monsters come into contact with each other. These monsters will fight, and by the end, one or both of them will receive considerable damage with a good chance to drop loot.

Small Monsters can Attack Large Monsters

Aside from large monsters clashing with each other, other small monsters in Monster Hunter Wilds can also actively attack large monsters from different species. Take advantage of these small interactions, as this could deal a good amount of damage to the monster you're hunting!
