How To Get the A Prize Held High Trophy/Achievement in Monster Hunter Wilds

by Finn Mar 18,2025

Hunting behemoths isn't the only way to stay busy in Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak. For those seeking the "A Prize Held High" trophy/achievement, the key isn't a dragon, but the surprisingly elusive Curioshell Crab. This crustacean can be snagged using your trusty Capture Net.

While Curioshell Crabs can appear across various maps, the Scarlet Forest proves a reliable hunting ground. Head to Area 6: Flowering Rocks (located between Areas 2 and 6). Near the pop-up camp, check the nearby puddle—it's a prime spawning spot. If you're having trouble spotting it, Alma might offer a clue, mentioning a creature carrying something.

Equip your Capture Net, aim for the orange reticle, and fire! A successful capture nets you both the Curioshell Crab and an Ancient Wyvern Coin. Remember, these crabs are quick, so anticipate their movements for a clean catch. Area 13 of the Windward Plains and Area 8 of the Scarlet Forest also offer increased chances of finding them, though they can appear elsewhere.

That’s all you need to know about securing the "A Prize Held High" trophy/achievement in Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak. For more hunting tips and tricks, check out The Escapist.

Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
