armor visibility

Layered armor in Monster Hunter Wilds unlocks after reaching High Rank, which is achieved by defeating the Yian Kut-Ku in the Scarlet Forest. Players can access the Equipment Appearance menu from their tent to toggle armor visibility and use pre-order DLC cosmetics. Crafting High Rank armor automatically transforms it into layered armor, simplifying the process compared to previous titles. To equip layered armor or adjust visibility, players navigate to the Appearance Menu in their tent, where they can select layered armor, toggle display options, change colors, and add pendants to weapons.
