All Hidden and Secret Achievements in Monster Hunter Wilds

Monster Hunter Wilds boasts 12 secret achievements. Seven are earned through natural story progression. The remaining five, detailed below, require completing optional objectives:

I Caught a Shooting Star!: Capture a creature in the desert that glows like a shooting star. A Prize Held High: Capture a creature carrying an Ancient Wyvern Coin. A Legacy Restored: Obtain a Rarity 8 Artian Weapon. Seasoned Hunter: Hunt 50 Tempered monsters. Top of the Food Chain: Hunt 50 Apex Predators.

While some are straightforward, others demand more strategic effort. Let's explore each achievement:

I Caught a Shooting Star!

At night, in Zone 11 of the Windward Plains, prepare Screamer Pods. Locate a Baunos near gathering spots, use the pods, then capture it with your Capture Net.

A Prize Held High

This achievement is obtainable in various locations; focus on tight corners and dead ends. Specifically, in Zone 6 of the Scarlet Forest, near a small puddle, use your Capture Net on a small golden crab. Alma will often comment when you're near a creature holding an Ancient Wyvern Coin.

A Legacy Restored

High Rank missions unlock the crafting of Artian gear. Rarity 8 weapons and materials require hunting Tempered monsters using Rarity 7 gear.

Seasoned Hunter

Tempered monsters (purple outline on the minimap) are distinct from Frenzied monsters (red outline). Slaying or capturing them contributes to this achievement. They appear from Chapter 4 onwards, in High Rank content.

Top of the Food Chain

This achievement involves hunting Apex Predators. These include: Rey, Dau, Uth, Duna, Nu, Udra, Jin, and Dahaad.
