Monster Hunter Wilds keeps the series' tradition alive by offering players a vast array of armor styles, including designs inspired by beloved NPCs. One of the most sought-after cosmetic items in the game is the
Hawkheart Jacket, modeled after Gemma’s iconic outfit. This guide will walk you through how to obtain this unique armor piece and its layered version, along with tips on how to incorporate it into your builds.
How to Obtain the Hawkheart Jacket in Monster Hunter Wilds
To unlock the Hawkheart Jacket, you’ll need to complete the
"New Fashion, Old Feelings" side quest, which becomes available after installing
Title Update 2. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown:
1. Starting the Quest
- Speak to Gemma in the hub area after updating the game.
- She will explain her new fashion concept and ask you to model a custom armor set for a guild showcase.
2. Crafting the Required Armor Pieces
Gemma will request that you craft (or already own) the following armor pieces:
- Bulaqchi Specs a/B (Head)
- Hope Mail a (Chest)
- Clerk Vambraces a (Arms)
- Chatacabra Coil a/B (Waist)
- Piragill Greaves a/B (Legs)
Important Note: Some pieces have gender-specific variants. Look for the
orange diamond (female) or
green circle (male) icon when crafting to ensure you select the correct version.
3. Equipping the Armor as Layered Gear
Once you’ve crafted the set:
- Apply the pieces as layered armor (cosmetic-only gear).
- Return to Gemma to trigger a fashion show cutscene, where your hunter models her design.
4. Receiving the Hawkheart Jacket Reward
After the showcase, Gemma rewards you with the Hawkheart Jacket in both male and female versions. Since it’s given as a fully crafted piece, it’s immediately available as layered armor, allowing you to wear its stylish look over any functional armor set.
Hawkheart Jacket Stats & Build Potential
The Hawkheart Jacket comes with the following skills:
- Quick Sheathe Lv2
- Constitution Lv4
- 1x Level 1 Decoration Slot
Is It Worth Using?
While the armor piece has solid base skills for builds focusing on stamina management and faster weapon sheathing, its limited decoration slot may restrict high-level optimization. However, it’s a great choice for:
- Bow users (benefiting from Constitution)
- Long Sword or Great Sword builds (Quick Sheathe helps with fluid combat)
- Fashion hunters who prioritize style without sacrificing utility
