How To Get the A Prize Held High Trophy/Achievement in Monster Hunter Wilds

In *Monster Hunter Wilds*, there's a wealth of activities beyond just hunting the largest beasts. If you're aiming to unlock the A Prize Held High trophy or achievement, here's a detailed guide on how to achieve it.

How to Unlock the A Prize Held High Trophy/Achievement in Monster Hunter Wilds

Contrary to what the trophy's name might suggest, it's not about dragons or wyverns. Your target is actually the elusive Curioshell Crab, which you can capture using the Capture Net.

Finding the best spots for this creature can be tricky, as they appear across various maps. However, the most reliable location we've found is in the Scarlet Forest. Start from the base camp and head towards Area 6: Flowering Rocks pop-up camp, located between Areas 2 and 6.

Once you reach the Flowering Rocks area, keep an eye on the nearby puddle of water, a prime spawning spot for the Curioshell Crab. If you can't spot it, Alma can help; she'll mention if a creature is holding something, indicating a Curioshell Crab is nearby.

To capture it, equip your Capture Net, aim carefully until the reticle turns orange, and then shoot. A successful capture will net you not only the Curioshell Crab but also an Ancient Wyvern Coin.

Be mindful that the Curioshell Crab moves quickly, so anticipate its path and aim ahead to secure your capture. Other locations where you might find this creature include Area 13 of the Windward Plains or Area 8 of the Scarlet Forest. Remember, they can also spawn in other areas of the maps, but these are the spots we've tested and confirmed.

That covers everything you need to know about unlocking the A Prize Held High trophy or achievement in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. For more tips and guides, be sure to check out The Escapist.

*Monster Hunter Wilds is now available on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.*
