Monster Hunter Rise: Rime Beetle Hunting Guide

In Monster Hunter Wilds, the hunt extends beyond monstrous battles. A vast world awaits exploration, brimming with quests and discoveries. For those seeking the elusive Rime Beetle, this guide provides the necessary information.

How To Find the Rime Beetle in Monster Hunter Wilds

Following Samin's hint, your search begins in the Iceshard Cliffs region. Forget waypoints; this hunt relies on keen observation and a bit of luck. Rime Beetles are identifiable by their characteristic snowballs. Look for these in snowy areas within Iceshard Cliffs, specifically Areas 2, 7, 8, 11, and 13. Snow tracks can also serve as helpful clues.

How To Capture the Rime Beetle in Monster Hunter Wilds

Capture, not collection, is the goal. Equip your Capture Net (accessible via L1/LB, select with Square/X). Aim (L2/LT) until the reticle turns orange, then fire. Success adds the Rime Beetle to your collection, completing Samin's request. Manually collecting them yields Frost Pods, useful for inflicting ice damage.
