In Monster Hunter Wilds, the hunt extends beyond monstrous creatures; a vast world awaits exploration, brimming with diverse quests. This guide focuses on locating and capturing the elusive Rime Beetle.
Following Samin's clue, your search begins in the Iceshard Cliffs. Forget waypoints; keen observation is key. Rime Beetles are identifiable by their characteristic snowballs. Focus your search on snowy areas within Iceshard Cliffs, specifically Areas 2, 7, 8, 11, and 13. Snow tracks can also guide your hunt.
Capture, not collection, is the goal. Equip your Capture Net (accessible via L1/LB, then Square/X). Aim (L2/LT) at the Rime Beetle until the reticle turns orange, then fire. Success adds the Beetle to your collection, completing Samin's request. Direct collection yields Frost Pods for inflicting ice damage.
This concludes your guide to finding and capturing Rime Beetles in Monster Hunter Wilds. Explore The Escapist for further game insights.
Monster Hunter Wilds is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
