Welcome to the Monster Hunter Wilds Platinum Trophy Guide!
This game’s trophy system is very similar to its predecessor, with several user-friendly designs that significantly lower the difficulty of earning the platinum trophy. For instance, all materials will be marked on the map from the start; players can observe monster alerts (big/small crowns) using binoculars; and after discovering the big/small crown monsters, players can save them as investigation quests, supporting online multiplayer collaboration that allows all teammates to obtain the crown. Solo players can call for three AI hunters to team up with in the lobby using a rescue signal. With these design improvements, players can gather big and small crowns together with friends or other online players, tracking different monsters with binoculars to quickly form teams for hunting, thus reducing the time spent on farming crowns repeatedly. Additionally, the platinum trophy still requires reaching hunter level 100, capturing 50 monsters, completing 100 multiplayer missions, and finishing 100 missions while in follower deployment status (with a maximum of 2 players forming a team or single mode with rescue disabled). Moreover, the game features several optimizations like faster loading times, the ability to skip post-hunt timers, a mount that automatically finds monsters (no need to search for tracks), portable grills for cooking anywhere, and the ability to check the exact respawn times of each monster on the map.

Step 1: Completing the Main Storyline
First, focus on completing the main storyline as this will unlock all monsters and areas, allowing you to efficiently earn all trophies. The main storyline consists of 6 chapters, and you need to reach Hunter Level 40 to finish it completely. Starting from Chapter 4, new main quests can only be accessed by leveling up your hunter (which can be achieved by defeating monsters or completing side quests). You need to complete 30 side quests regardless, so it’s advisable to tackle some side quests later on when you lack the levels to push the main storyline. Some side quests also unlock useful items and features, providing dual benefits. For trophies, the most effective way is to team up with another player online, simultaneously advancing through 100 multiplayer quests and 100 quests while in companion mode. If too many players join the team, it might push out the companion slot. Solo players can summon 3 AI hunters using a distress signal to assist in the hunts, and even after completing the game, this method can be used to hunt the easier monsters to finish the 100 online/companion mode quests.
Step 2: Farming Gold and Resources
To build up your resources effectively, consider focusing on high-value quests and targeting specific monsters known for dropping valuable loot. Farming these monsters will ensure that you accumulate enough gold to upgrade your equipment and purchase essential items needed for higher-level hunts.
Current Version Overview
The current version of the game features a total of 29 large monsters, among which 26 can yield size crowns, totaling 52 gold crowns. For more detailed information, please refer to the large monster guide. Unlike previous installments, this game introduces improvements that significantly reduce the time needed to hunt for size crowns.
Strategies for Confirming Size Crowns
1. Use Binoculars to Verify Size Crowns: Carry binoculars and approach the monster (approximately 50 meters away) to observe its size. If the monster meets the requirements for a gold crown, a crown icon will appear beneath its name. This method allows players to pre-determine whether the monster is likely to have a size crown.

Saving Gold Crown Monsters for Investigation Tasks
When you discover a monster with a gold crown, you can press Touchpad → Square to open the monster list. Select the target gold crown monster and press X to save it as an investigation task (up to 50 can be saved). After completing area investigations, you can also check recent encounter records via Alma and re-save tasks. This mechanism allows players to repeatedly challenge three monsters of the same size and supports sharing with a maximum of nine players (one player initiates the initial hunt and can invite up to three for investigation tasks). Since the Great Gold Crown is guaranteed to drop, theoretically, you simply need to save 50 out of the other 51 gold crown monsters as investigation tasks to help others quickly earn related trophies, shortening the originally complex and lengthy collection process to just a few hours.
Quickly Refreshing Map Monsters
At the portable grill, select "Rest" to adjust the weather and time of day on the map, which will reset the distribution of monsters across the entire map. If the target monster still does not appear, you can repeat this action until it spawns.
SL Farming for Gold Crown Monsters
To farm large sums of money while offline, manually save your game approximately 30 seconds before the quest refresh timer expires, which is indicated on the map. If the monster spawned doesn’t have the gold crown, do not save your game; simply return to the main menu and load your previous save. Repeat this process (you can try once every minute). Ensure that there is always a 30-second interval between your saving time and the refresh time; otherwise, the same size of the monster may be locked. Remember to stay offline while using this method.
Switching Online Lobbies
Continuously switch online lobbies in search of rooms containing quests for the desired gold crown monsters to hunt them effectively.
Step 3: Clearing Miscellaneous Trophies
Complete the remaining quests, such as side missions, unique trophies, reaching Hunter Rank 100, completing 100 multiplayer quests, finishing 100 quests while companions are in action, capturing 50 monsters, and hunting 50 large monsters that are apex predators in their ecosystems.

General Trophy Tips
To unlock a trophy, you only need to complete any 50 key missions (main quests), optional missions (side quests), field investigations, or investigation tasks. Each task completed counts towards the trophy. You can accept missions from Alma (the mission counter) or hunt any monster in the open world until a hunting mission is triggered. During the six chapters of the main storyline, the trophy will generally unlock automatically. You can check the current number of completed tasks in the menu under "Hunter Data."
Beginning Investigations
Proof of completing an investigation mission for the first time: In the open world area, press the touchpad and then press the □ button to display all trackable monsters on the map. Select any monster and press the × button to bring up the options of immediate hunting or saving as an investigation task. Choose "Save as Investigation Task," then interact with Alma to accept this mission from the investigation task list. Completing any one investigation task will unlock the trophy.
Field Hunting
Proof of completing a field investigation mission for the first time:
Starting Your Field Investigation
Press the touchpad and then press the square button to select a monster, then choose to start the field investigation to engage in combat. Alternatively, you can attack the monster until the field investigation is automatically triggered, and then defeat the monster. The field investigation is one of the most time-consuming tasks in this game, and completing any one of them will earn you a trophy.
Understanding Each Other: A First Step
This is proof of completing a minor mission for the first time. Please refer to the explanation below for the trophy "Running Around".
Running Around
This is proof of completing 30 minor missions. There are far more than 30 minor missions in the game; simply completing any 30 of them will earn you the trophy. These missions can be unlocked by advancing the main storyline, reaching specific hunter levels, or completing prerequisite side missions. As long as you see NPCs with yellow exclamation marks above their heads, it indicates that there are missions available for you to accept. Missions to hunt specific types of monsters are generally easier to complete; after accepting them, you can interact with Alma directly. More complex missions could involve capturing specific environmental creatures or fishing for rare fish, which tend to be more time-consuming.
First Fishing Experience
This is proof of your first successful fishing attempt.
Unlocking Fishing in Monster Hunter Wilds
After completing the side mission "Fishing is Life" by talking to Kania at the base in the Crimson Forest, you will unlock the fishing feature.
Grilled to Perfection!
Proof of Grilling your First Cooked Meat
Equip and use the Portable Campfire, and select Grilling Meat (you must have raw meat in your item pouch to grill; raw meat can be obtained by hunting small monsters). After starting to grill, wait for your hunter to flip the meat, and then wait a few more seconds until the meat changes to a grilled color. Press the X button, then follow a specific rhythm to press the X button at the precise moment to slice the meat, which will result in extra steaks.
Does it Smell Good?
Proof of Cooking at the Campfire for the First Time
Enter your personal tent at any main camp, switch to the Campfire Menu, and click on Campfire Cooking. Then, cook any dish to unlock the trophy. You can also use the Portable Campfire to cook.
The Fallen Giant
Proof of Successfully Riding a Monster for the First Time
To ride a large monster, you need to jump onto its back. The easiest method is to ride your mount and then press the X button to jump down onto the monster. Once on the large monster's back, you can attack using a dagger. After you dismount, you can immediately trigger a jump cup. Essentially, this will occur automatically in the early game, meaning you won’t need to spend additional time grinding.
Assassin Hunter
Proof of successfully performing a surprise attack for the first time. Sneak up on an unsuspecting monster (press the X key while standing still to crouch) or use a stealth suit. When close to the monster, you'll see a button prompt; press the O key to initiate a surprise attack.
Precision Sniping
Proof of successfully attacking a weak point or wound 50 times in focused mode. When the monster has a wound, a red dot will appear (some monsters have blue wounds). Enter focused mode by pressing L1 and attack the wound until it bursts. Repeat this process on different monsters until you trigger the jump cup. Over time, you will likely obtain this trophy automatically.

Proof of Capturing Creatures Holding Old Dragon Coins
To capture the small crab-like creatures that glow with a golden light, you need to use a capture net. These creatures can appear on the surface, with a chance to respawn across all maps. When the character approaches, Alma will trigger a dialogue hinting "Is that creature hiding something?". It is recommended to head to the connection between area 2 and area 6 in the Crimson Forest region, where there is a small puddle just before area 6's Flower Cliff. There is a chance that this creature will respawn there. Please note that it’s only a chance, and while there might be fixed respawn points, it is not guaranteed to appear 100%. If you do not encounter it, you can quickly teleport to another map to refresh the moss, or you can set up a tent in the Flower Cliff area for faster back-and-forth refreshing.
Proof of Capturing Shooting Star-like Glowing Creatures in the Desert
Catching Glowing Blue Rodents in the Desert at Night
In the Desert Area 13 at night, you'll need to ride your mount and use a capture net to quickly catch the small, glowing blue rodent-like creatures. They move incredibly fast and have a very erratic movement pattern, making the chase potentially last several minutes. You can use the Portable Campfire to rest and change the time to night, setting the environmental state to the Bountiful Period. Note that their appearance is probabilistic; there may be fixed spawn points, but they will not appear 100% of the time. If you don't encounter them, you can quickly teleport to other maps to refresh the moss or set up a tent at the Oasis Camp in Area 13 for quick back-and-forth refreshing.
Proof of Catching Giant Squid
In your adventure, capturing a giant squid serves as a significant milestone. This challenge not only tests your hunting skills but also enhances your understanding of the aquatic ecosystem in Monster Hunter Wilds.
Getting Started with Fishing in Monster Hunter Wilds
To begin your fishing adventure in Monster Hunter Wilds, you first need to complete Kania's fishing quest series to obtain bait. Kania is located in the Crimson Forest Base Camp, and she will have a yellow quest marker when you can take her quests. Start by finishing the series of fishing quests she offers, beginning with the initial quest titled "Fishing is Life." At the conclusion of her fishing quest line, you will receive a special bait. Equip your fishing rod and switch to this bait to prepare for catching the giant squid.
Tips for Catching the Giant Squid
Once you're ready with the special bait, head to the designated fishing spots known for giant squid appearances. Ensure you have the right timing and patience, as these creatures can be elusive. Pay attention to the water ripples to increase your chances of a successful catch.
Conclusion
Fishing can be a relaxing and rewarding activity in Monster Hunter Wilds. With Kania's guidance, you'll soon master the art of fishing and enjoy the fruits of your labor.
How to Catch the Giant Squid in Monster Hunter Wilds
The giant squid emits a faint blue glow and can be found in the enormous amber located in region 17 of the Crimson Forest. The weather must be extreme (requires heavy rain). You can rest in a Portable Campfire or tent to change the environment to extreme weather and wait for heavy rain. During the fishing process for the giant squid, a mini-game is triggered, where you need to win a tug-of-war against the squid. Move the left joystick in the direction the squid swims and wait until it gets tired. Alternate pressing the left joystick up and down to reel it in. It is recommended to complete the reeling step 3-4 times during the squid's fatigue to pull it closer to the shore until you successfully catch it. Be aware that environmental creatures only have a chance to refresh; there may be fixed spawn points, but they do not always appear. If you haven't encountered it, you can quickly teleport to other maps to refresh moss or simply set up a tent at the temporary camp in area 17 to quickly cycle back to refresh.
