Unlock All Secret Achievements in Monster Hunter Wilds

For all you completionists and trophy hunters out there, *Monster Hunter Wilds* offers a thrilling challenge with its hidden achievements. We're here to guide you through unlocking every one of them, ensuring your journey to 100% completion is as smooth as possible.

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, while the other five require you to complete specific optional objectives. Here's the rundown on those five:

  • I Caught a Shooting Star! - Caught a creature in the desert that shines like a shooting star.
  • A Prize Held High - Caught a creature that bears an Ancient Wyvern Coin.
  • A Legacy Restored - Obtained an Artian Weapon of Rarity 8.
  • Seasoned Hunter - Hunted 50 Tempered monsters.
  • Top of the Food Chain - Hunted 50 Apex Predators.

Let's dive into the specifics of unlocking each of these achievements:

I Caught a Shooting Star!

To catch this celestial creature, head to Zone 11 of the Windward Plains at night. Equip yourself with some screamer pods. Keep an eye out for a Baunos flying near the gathering spots. Once you spot it, shoot it with the screamer pods and quickly follow up by capturing it with your Capture Net.

A Prize Held High

This achievement can be achieved in any map, but Zone 6 of the Scarlet Forest is a prime location. Look for a small puddle of water and use your Capture Net to catch the small golden crab lurking there. Alma will often comment when you're near a creature with the Ancient Wyvern Coin, hinting at its presence.

A Legacy Restored

Once you reach High Rank missions, you can start crafting Artian gear. To get your hands on Rarity 8 weapons and materials, you'll need to hunt Tempered monsters while equipped with Rarity 7 gear.

Seasoned Hunter

Don't mix up Tempered monsters with Frenzied ones; the former are marked in purple on your minimap, while the latter are outlined in red. Start hunting or capturing these Tempered monsters from Chapter 4 onwards, as you delve into High Rank content, to work towards this achievement.

Top of the Food Chain

This achievement is straightforward but requires dedication. Only the following monsters count as Apex Predators: Rey, Dau, Uth, Duna, Nu, Udra, and Jin Dahaad. Hunt 50 of these to claim your spot at the top.

With these tips, you're well on your way to unlocking all the hidden achievements in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. For more tips and information on the game, including the best gathering set to use, be sure to check out The Escapist.
