Changing the main weapon
Use the equipment-management options available at camp or the relevant hub. Save matching armor, item, radial, and ammunition choices together when the weapon changes the whole loadout.
Carrying a second weapon
A Seikret-carried secondary can change range, damage type, element, or familiarity without abandoning the hunt. It is optional, not a required rotation.
Swap for a reason
Create distance and identify the problem before switching.
- Range or elevation is denying contact.
- A material goal needs another damage type.
- The secondary has a better matchup plan.
- The main weapon needs a deliberate reset.
Avoid loadout errors
After every weapon change, verify armor skills, items, coatings or ammo, and radial shortcuts. The weapon icon alone does not prove the set is ready.
