If you've forgotten the hint provided by Samin, your journey to find the Rime Beetle leads you to the Iceshard Cliffs region. Unlike setting a simple waypoint, locating this creature requires keen observation and a bit of luck. The Rime Beetle is known for rolling up balls of packed snow, making it easier to spot in snowy areas.

In the Iceshard Cliffs, focus your search on Areas 2, 7, 8, 11, and 13. As you traverse these snow-covered zones, keep an eye out for the distinctive snowballs. Additionally, if you notice tracks in the snow, follow them—they might lead you straight to a Rime Beetle.

Capturing the Rime Beetle involves more than just picking it up. You'll need to use your Capture Net, which should already be part of your gear. To equip it, hold L1/LB and cycle through your options until you reach the Capture Net. Press Square/X to select it, then aim with L2/LT.

Once the Rime Beetle is in your crosshairs and the target turns orange, fire the net to capture it. Successfully doing so will add the Rime Beetle to your collection and fulfill Samin's request. If you choose to collect it manually, you'll obtain Frost Pods, useful for inflicting ice damage in Monster Hunter Wilds.

That's all you need to know about finding and capturing Rime Beetles in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. For more tips and detailed guides, be sure to check out The Escapist.
