Until you can cultivate enough in the City you will need to grab some quick locations, for the example I’ll use Ancient forest, but there are different spots good for farming (Wildspire waste is great for Sleep Herb+Para shroom). Now some of these items can be bought from the vendor near the entrance to the camp, trap kits costs like 200z a piece, some you will get from daily log in rewards or quest rewards. Note: it is worth buying this than crafting in my opinion, it costs 45z at the Vendor Here is where things get a bit annoying, especially since you start out you might not have the needed materials to do this right away. Even with those you also need to have Tranq bombs, normally 2 is needed for a capture but if the monster is especially low on HP the trap can be enough by itself (use at the head of the monster)Īlternatively if you are using a Heavy Bow Gun or a Light Bow Gun than you can shoot the head of the monster with Tranq Ammo while it is entrapped. Simply because you can only have 1 in your inventory at a time.

You want to preferably keep one of each in your inventory in case you make a mistake during the capture process. Pitfall trap (green trap), immobilizes the monster, but unlike the shock trap some monsters are able to still cause trouble (Deviljho) Shock trap (yellow trap), this is pretty normal, will incapacitate the monster for a short time. The equipmentīefore you could start capturing you need a few essential things, capturing monsters can be a drain on your resources (be it money or craft materials). In general you will get a few more materials by capturing the monster due to the payout in general and the second reason is it saves time at the expense of extra resources.Ī monster is capture able on certain HP %, after which you can do it and after such there is a 20 second timer before you are sent back to the HQ (Versus not only depleting the HP of the monster for the kill but also a 60 second timer after). The purpose of capture, what is the benefit?
