Both the Armorcharm and the Powercharm are powerful key items in Monster Hunter Wilds. You’ll get both of them as rewards for High Rank quests. You only get them as rewards the first time you complete each quest.
The Armorcharm raises your defense by 12. The Powercharm raises your attack by 6.
Our Monster Hunter Wilds guide will tell you how to get the Armorcharm and Powercharm and how to use them.
How to get the Armorcharm in Monster Hunter Wilds
The Armorcharm is a reward you’ll get from the “Secure Wounded Hollow” quest. You get this quest from Cobb in Suja, Peaks of Accord.
For “Secure Wounded Hollow,” you’ll head into the High Rank area of Wounded Hollow. In that region’s arena, you’ll have to take on a pair of Hirabami.
Once it’s completed, you’ll need to talk to Cobb again to get the Armorcharm. You’ll only see a brief message about it on the right side of your screen and then it just kind of disappears in your item box.
When you’re done, head over to Rex to get another quest, “As Gatekeeper,” that you’ll need for…
How to get the Powercharm in Monster Hunter Wilds
Like the Armorcharm, the Powercharm is a reward from an optional quest, “As Gatekeeper.” This one is from Rex (who is wearing the same armor as Cobb) in Wounded Hollow. “As Gatekeeper” has you head back into the Wounded Hollow arena to take on a pair of Ajarakan.
When you’re done, talk to Rex again to get the Powercharm.
How to use the Armorcharm and Powercharm in Monster Hunter Wilds
When you get them as rewards, both the Armorcharm and the Powercharm will get dropped into your item box. For them to help you, though, you’ll need to move them to your item pouch.
You don’t actually use the Armorcharm or Powercharm as items. You get the benefits just by having them in your item pouch. They’ll take up a slot, but they do not get added to your item bar.
