Slaying monsters is thrilling, but sometimes you need to capture them to collect all their parts. Here's your comprehensive guide on how to capture monsters in *Monster Hunter Wilds*.

Capturing Monsters in Monster Hunter Wilds

Capturing monsters in *Monster Hunter Wilds* is a straightforward process. First, you need to weaken the monster. Keep an eye on your Palico, as it will signal when the monster is vulnerable. Additional signs of a weakened monster include a skull icon appearing over its symbol on your minimap, and the monster itself may start limping or drooling, indicating low HP.

Once the monster is weakened, it's time to set a trap. You have two options: a Shock Trap or a Pitfall Trap. Place the trap on the ground and lure the monster into it. As soon as the monster is caught and incapacitated, quickly use one or two Tranq Bombs to sedate it. Alternatively, you can use Tranq Ammo or Tranq Blades, depending on your weapon and preferred play style. Successfully capturing a monster will complete the quest and return you to Base Camp.

How to Get Traps and Tranq Items

While your Palico might occasionally set traps for you, it's wise to come prepared with your own. There are two types of traps available: Pitfall Traps and Shock Traps. To craft a Pitfall Trap, you'll need a Trap Tool and a Net, which can be made from Spiderwebs or Ivy. For a Shock Trap, you'll require a Trap Tool and a Thunderbug Capacitor.

For tranquilizing items, you can create a Tranq Bomb using a Sleep Herb and a Parashroom. These Tranq Bombs can then be combined with Throwing Knives to make Tranq Blades, or with Normal Ammo to produce Tranq Ammo.
