Acquiring Trap Tools in Monster Hunter Wilds: A Comprehensive Guide
While Monster Hunter Wilds doesn't explicitly guide players on acquiring Trap Tools, this essential crafting component is crucial for capturing monsters and obtaining valuable parts for armor creation. This guide details how to obtain and utilize these tools effectively.
Obtaining Trap Tools:
Unlike other resources found in the wild, Trap Tools are exclusively purchased from the Provisions Stockpiler NPC located at your Base Camp. Simply interact with him, browse his inventory, and purchase the Trap Tools for 200 Zenny each. It's recommended to purchase a substantial quantity, particularly when farming specific monsters or aiming for a complete monster collection.
Utilizing Trap Tools:
Once acquired, Trap Tools are used in crafting:
- Pitfall Trap: Combine Trap Tools with a Net (requiring Spiderweb or Ivy).
- Shock Trap: Combine Trap Tools with a Thunderbug Capacitor.
Remember that certain monsters exhibit immunity to specific traps. For example, Shock Traps are ineffective against Rey Dau, a lightning dragon. In such cases, utilize a Pitfall Trap instead. Also note that only one trap can be carried at a time; conserve their use for when the monster is vulnerable.
