Other Monster Hunter Wilds' Crafting Materials require you to do some crafting first. For instance, you'll need an Ivy and Spider Web to make a Net. It’ll probably take a bit of time to gather every item, and you’ll likely need to complete the main campaign to truly experience everything the game has to offer.

I'll update this guide if I discover any new resources in the Forbidden Lands.
