Gaming Monster Hunter Tri : Traps

[Ritsuki]

Hi,

I want to capture a Great Jaggi, but I can't figure how to make shock traps and "tranquilizer bombs/grenades" (I don't know if the name's correct, I play in french)

Which items are needed and where can I find them ?

Thanks in advance

You want to yourself? Or you want to catch one in a quest? By yourself, you need trap sets and you need to combine that with other items (don't remember most) to create a trap.

Like trap set + net = pitfall trap

 

[Jiggah]

Thunderbug + Trap Tool = Shock Trap
Net + Trap Tool = Pitfall Trap
Tranquilizer + Bomb Casing = Tranq Bombs

Thanks

EDIT : Which trap is the most efficient ?

 

[Jiggah]

Personally, shock traps. However, certain traps don't work on certain monsters.

pitfall lasts longer but you cant hit tail, for capturing pitfall is better, but it cant be used underwater, so if your going to capture a lagriacus later on(which IS a mission) u need shock traps

Capturing is way to hard -.-V

i am on my 6th try for Quopecko or however that darn monsters name is -.-V ... soooooo annoying.

umm for capturing, you hit the monster till hes weak enough (sometimes the monster lipms to indicated hes ready for capture). its best to let the monster retreat and sleep when hes weak for easy capture.

you want to know when to capture monsters? to be exact you want to know if it is weaken? use the bone armor (complete set) it will indicate in the map if it is ready to be capture.

by the way early game, its hard to get a shock trap. thunder bug cannot be mass produce in your farm. what you can do is trade items to agrosy for shock traps.
