"Guide to Obtaining Trap Tools in Monster Hunter Wilds"

Slaying monsters in *Monster Hunter Wilds* is thrilling, but to gather every monster part for armor forging, you'll also need to master the art of trapping. This requires specific materials, namely Trap Tools. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to acquire and utilize Trap Tools in *Monster Hunter Wilds*.

Where to Get Trap Tools in Monster Hunter Wilds

While *Monster Hunter Wilds* doesn't explicitly guide you on trapping monsters or obtaining Trap Tools, if you're familiar with previous games in the series, the process will feel intuitive.

To acquire Trap Tools, head to your Base Camp and speak with the Provisions Stockpiler NPC. Browse through his inventory to find Trap Tools, available for purchase at 200 Zenny each. It's wise to stock up on these, particularly if you're planning to farm specific monsters or aim to capture every monster in the game.

Note that Trap Tools can only be bought at Base Camp and are not available in the wild like other resources.

How to Use Trap Tools

Once you've secured your Trap Tools, it's time to deploy them effectively. You can combine them with a Net (crafted using Spiderweb or Ivy) to create a Pitfall Trap, or with a Thunderbug Capacitor to form a Shock Trap.

Both types of traps are effective, but be mindful that certain monsters have immunities. For example, Shock Traps won't affect Rey Dau, a lightning dragon, making Pitfall Traps the better choice in this case.

Remember, you can only carry one Trap item at a time, so use them strategically when the monster is weakened.

That's the complete guide on how to get and use Trap Tools in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. For more tips and detailed information on the game, be sure to check out The Escapist.
