While slaying monsters in *Monster Hunter Wilds* is a thrill, capturing them for their parts to forge armor is equally important. To do this effectively, you'll need to master the art of trapping, which requires Trap Tools. Here's how you can acquire and utilize these crucial items.

Where to Get Trap Tools in Monster Hunter Wilds

Although *Monster Hunter Wilds* doesn't provide explicit tutorials on trapping or obtaining Trap Tools, if you're familiar with previous titles in the series, you'll find the process intuitive.

To obtain Trap Tools, head to the Provisions Stockpiler NPC at your Base Camp. Engage in conversation with him and navigate through his inventory until you find the Trap Tools, available at 200 Zenny each. It's wise to stock up on several, especially if you're planning extensive monster farming or aiming to capture every monster in the game.

Note that Trap Tools can only be purchased at Base Camp and aren't available in the wild like other resources.

How to Use Trap Tools

With your Trap Tools in hand, it's time to deploy them effectively. You can combine them with a Net (crafted from Spiderweb or Ivy) to create a Pitfall Trap, or with a Thunderbug Capacitor to fashion a Shock Trap.

Both types of traps are effective, but remember that some monsters have immunities. For example, Shock Traps won't affect Rey Dau, a lightning dragon, so you'll need to opt for a Pitfall Trap in such cases.

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

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