How to Mount / Climb a Monster:
- You must be higher than the monster to get on his back
- The easiest way to do that is to stand on a higher point and jump on the monster
- Jumping is an attack and you have the chance to hold onto the monster
- During the game, you can unlock a Master Mounter skill
Hint: With the weapon Insect Lure it is especially easy to mount a monster. You can use this weapon to make jump attacks.
How To Catch Pets in MHW - PS Controller Combinations
If you want to catch an animal as a pet, go into the wilderness and then do as follows:
- Hold down L1 and navigate with square and circle through the items in your item list.
- The net is here by default under the items and you can equip it with quad.
- The equipped net now takes the place of your slingshot and you can aim with the button L2 and shoot the net with R2.
- The net does not have as much reach as the slingshot but includes a larger area. The game also shows you whether an animal is within range for an orange discoloration of the capture area.
- Approach the animal that you want to catch carefully, as they are very scary and could run away. By pressing X you can switch to slow mode.
If you successfully capture a pet this way, return to Astera. Talk to the caretaker (a Palico) in your personal quarters. The Palico already knows about your catch and allows you to place pets in your quarters.
You can interact with pets, and your hunter will feed them as you rest in your home.
