"Guide to Acquiring Trap Tools in Monster Hunter Wilds"

Slaying monsters is thrilling, but if you're aiming to collect every monster part for crafting top-notch armor in *Monster Hunter Wilds*, you'll need to master the art of trapping them. To do this, you'll require Trap Tools. Here's how you can acquire and effectively use them in the game.

Where to Get Trap Tools in Monster Hunter Wilds

While *Monster Hunter Wilds* might not explicitly guide you on trapping monsters or acquiring Trap Tools, if you're familiar with the series, the process should feel intuitive.

To obtain Trap Tools, visit the Provisions Stockpiler NPC at your Base Camp. Engage in conversation with him and navigate through his inventory until you spot the Trap Tools, available for 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 type of monster in the game.

Remember, Trap Tools are exclusively purchasable at Base Camp and cannot be discovered 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. Combine them with a Net (made from Spiderweb or Ivy) to craft a Pitfall Trap, or pair them with a Thunderbug Capacitor for a Shock Trap.

Both types of traps are effective, but be mindful that some monsters are resistant to certain traps. For example, using a Shock Trap on Rey Dau, a lightning dragon, would be futile as it's immune to electrical shocks. In such cases, opt for the Pitfall Trap.

Keep in mind, you can only carry one Trap item at a time, so deploy them strategically when the monster is weakened.
