Slaying monsters in *Monster Hunter Wilds* is thrilling, but to gather every monster part for crafting top-notch armor, you'll also need to master the art of trapping. To do this effectively, you'll need Trap Tools. Here’s your guide on how to acquire and utilize them in the game.

Where to Get Trap Tools in Monster Hunter Wilds

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

To obtain Trap Tools, head to your Base Camp and visit the Provisions Stockpiler NPC. Browse through his inventory to find Trap Tools, priced at 200 Zenny each. It's wise to stock up, especially if you're aiming to farm specific monsters or capture a variety of creatures. Keep in mind, Trap Tools are exclusively available for purchase at Base Camp and cannot be found in the wild like other resources.

How to Use Trap Tools

With your Trap Tools in hand, it's time to deploy them effectively. Combine a Trap Tool with a Net, using Spiderweb or Ivy, to craft a Pitfall Trap. Alternatively, combine it with a Thunderbug Capacitor to create a Shock Trap.

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

Also, you can only carry one Trap item at a time, so strategize their use for when the monster is weakened.

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