Calling all completionists and trophy hunters! *Monster Hunter Wilds* offers some challenging hidden achievements that can test your skills and dedication. Let’s dive into how you can unlock all these secret achievements to become a true master of the hunt.
All Hidden and Secret Achievements in Monster Hunter Wilds
In *Monster Hunter Wilds*, you'll find 12 secret achievements. Seven of these will unlock naturally as you progress through the main story. The remaining five are linked to optional objectives, which we'll detail below:
I Caught a Shooting Star!
To catch this shining creature, head to Zone 11 of the Windward Plains at night. Equip some screamer pods and keep an eye out for a Baunos near the gathering spots. Once you spot it, shoot it with the screamer pods and then use your Capture Net to nab this celestial critter.
A Prize Held High
You can find the creature bearing the Ancient Wyvern Coin in Zone 6 of the Scarlet Forest. Look for the small puddle of water and use your Capture Net to catch the golden crab lurking there. Alma might give you a hint by commenting on the creature’s mysterious possession.
A Legacy Restored
To obtain an Artian Weapon of Rarity 8, you'll need to dive into High Rank missions. Equip Rarity 7 gear and hunt Tempered monsters, which will provide the necessary materials to craft this high-level weapon.
Seasoned Hunter
To become a Seasoned Hunter, you need to hunt 50 Tempered monsters. Remember, these are the ones marked in purple on the minimap, not the Frenzied monsters highlighted in red. You'll start encountering Tempered monsters from Chapter 4 onwards in the High Rank content.
Top of the Food Chain
To reach the top of the food chain, hunt 50 Apex Predators. The monsters counted as Apex Predators include Rey Dau, Uth Duna, Nu Udra, and Jin Dahaad. Focus your efforts on these formidable foes to claim this achievement.
