Monster Hunter Wilds

Diversion Skill Effects

Add to Watchlist

Diversion is the Group Skill of the Alluring Pelt group in Monster Hunter Wilds (MH Wilds), that causes monsters to target the player more often in combat. See the effects of Diversion and armor sets with Diversion in this guide.

Diversion Skill Effect

Alluring Pelt 3-Piece Skill

Increases the attention drawn to you when attacking a monster.
Group Alluring Pelt
Armor Pieces Required 3

Diversion causes monsters to focus on attacking the Hunter with the skill in combat. Avoid using 3 pieces from the Alluring Pelt group if you do not want the monster to focus on you when there are multiple targets for it.

Monsters Are More Likely to Attack You

Diversion will make monsters target you more when in combat. This is mostly useful for Multiplayer scenarios or with Support Hunters, as during solo play, monsters only have you to target by default.

The skill can be used in tandem with weapons that rely on parrying or countering monster attacks, to draw monsters away from allied Hunters and onto you to enable such weapons.

Diversion isnt a good aggro skill, the increase in aggro is minimal and very subtle. Lure Pods does it job better.
