Slaying monsters in *Monster Hunter Wilds* is thrilling, but to gather every monster part needed for armor forging, you'll also need to master the art of trapping. This requires specific materials, namely Trap Tools. Let's dive into how you can acquire and utilize these essential items.

Where to Get Trap Tools in Monster Hunter Wilds

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

To get Trap Tools, head over to the Provisions Stockpiler NPC at your Base Camp. Engage with him and browse his inventory until you find the Trap Tools, priced at 200 Zenny each. It's wise to stock up on these, particularly if you're focused on farming specific monsters or aiming to capture every monster in the game.

Remember, Trap Tools can only be purchased at Base Camp and are not available out in the wild like other resources.

How to Use Trap Tools

With your Trap Tools in hand, it's time to make them work for you. You can combine them with a Net (using Spiderweb or Ivy) to create a Pitfall Trap, or pair them with a Thunderbug Capacitor to fashion a Shock Trap.

Both types of traps are effective, but keep in mind that some monsters have specific immunities. For example, Shock Traps are ineffective against Rey Dau, the lightning dragon, making Pitfall Traps the better choice in such cases.

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

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