All Hidden and Secret Achievements in Monster Hunter Wilds

Monster Hunter Wilds boasts twelve secret achievements. Seven are naturally unlocked through main story progression. The remaining five, detailed below, require completing specific optional objectives:

  • I Caught a Shooting Star!: Capture a uniquely glowing creature in the desert.
  • 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 achievements are straightforward, others require specific strategies. Let's break down each one:

I Caught a Shooting Star!

At night, venture to Zone 11 of the Windward Plains. Equip Screamer Pods and target a Baunos near the gathering spots. Use the pods, then capture it with your Capture Net.

A Prize Held High

This achievement can be completed in various locations. Focus on tight corners and dead ends. A reliable spot is Zone 6 of the Scarlet Forest, near a small puddle of water. Use your Capture Net on the small, golden crab. Alma will often comment when you're near a creature holding an Ancient Wyvern Coin.

A Legacy Restored

Crafting Artian gear becomes available in High Rank missions. However, crafting Rarity 8 weapons and materials necessitates hunting Tempered monsters while equipped with Rarity 7 gear.

Seasoned Hunter

Remember to differentiate between Tempered (purple minimap outline) and Frenzied (red outline) monsters. Only slaying or capturing Tempered monsters contributes to this achievement. Tempered monsters appear from Chapter 4 onwards, in High Rank content.

Top of the Food Chain

This achievement involves hunting Apex Predators. Only the following monsters count: Rey, Dau, Uth, Duna, Nu, Udra, Jin, Dahaad.
