While slaying monsters in *Monster Hunter Wilds* can be exhilarating, capturing them is essential for gathering all the parts you need for crafting armor. To successfully trap these creatures, you'll need Trap Tools. Here's a detailed guide on how to acquire and use them effectively.

Where to Get Trap Tools in Monster Hunter Wilds

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

To acquire Trap Tools, head to your Base Camp and visit the Provisions Stockpiler NPC. Engage in a conversation with him and navigate through his inventory until you find the Trap Tools. Each Trap Tool costs 200 Zenny. 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.

Keep in mind, Trap Tools are exclusively available for purchase at the Base Camp and cannot be found in the wild like other resources.

How to Use Trap Tools

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

Both types of traps are effective, but be aware that certain monsters have immunities. For example, Shock Traps are ineffective against Rey Dau, a lightning dragon, so in such cases, opt for the Pitfall Trap instead.

Also, remember that you can only carry one Trap item at a time, so strategically use them when the monster is in a weakened state.
