Slaying monsters in *Monster Hunter Wilds* is a thrilling experience, but sometimes you need to capture them to collect all their valuable parts. Here's a detailed guide on how to effectively capture monsters in the game.

Capturing Monsters in Monster Hunter Wilds

Capturing a monster in *Monster Hunter Wilds* is straightforward yet strategic. The key is to weaken the monster first. Once it's sufficiently damaged, your Palico will signal its weakened state. Additional indicators include a skull icon appearing over the monster on your minimap and the monster itself showing signs of exhaustion, such as limping or drooling.

With the monster weakened, it's time to set your trap. You can use either a Shock Trap or a Pitfall Trap. Place the trap on the ground and lure the monster into it. Once the monster is trapped, it will be momentarily incapacitated, giving you the perfect opportunity to use Tranq Bombs. Typically, one or two Tranq Bombs are enough to successfully capture the monster. Alternatively, you can use Tranq Ammo or Tranq Blades, depending on your weapon and play style.

Successfully capturing a monster will conclude your quest and transport you back to Base Camp.

How to Get Traps and Tranq Items

While your Palico may occasionally set traps for you, it's wise to carry your own into the field. There are two types of traps at your disposal: Pitfall Traps and Shock Traps. Crafting a Pitfall Trap requires a Trap Tool and either Spiderwebs or Ivy as a Net. For a Shock Trap, you'll need a Trap Tool and a Thunderbug Capacitor.

To craft Tranq Bombs, you'll need a Sleep Herb and a Parashroom. These Tranq Bombs can then be combined with Throwing Knives to create Tranq Blades or with Normal Ammo to make Tranq Ammo.
