In *Monster Hunter Wilds*, there's a wealth of activities to dive into beyond just tackling the largest beasts. If you're aiming to secure the A Prize Held High trophy or achievement, here's your guide to success.
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 focus should be on the Curioshell Crab, which you can capture using the Capture Net.
Finding the Curioshell Crab can be a bit tricky since it's scattered across various maps. Our top recommendation is to head to the Scarlet Forest. Start from the base camp and navigate to Area 6, specifically to the Flowering Rocks pop-up camp, which is nestled between Areas 2 and 6.
Equip your Capture Net, align your reticle until it turns orange, and then take your shot to capture the creature. Successfully doing so will net you not only a Curioshell Crab but also an Ancient Wyvern Coin.
Keep in mind that the Curioshell Crab moves quickly, so anticipate its path and aim ahead to increase your chances of capturing it. Besides the Scarlet Forest, you can also find the Curioshell Crab in Area 13 of the Windward Plains or Area 8 of the Scarlet Forest. While it may appear in other map areas, these are the spots we've found most reliable.
