How to capture Yian Kut-Ku in Monster Hunter Wilds (New Ecosystems quest)
Although you'll spend quite a lot of time taking down monsters, you'll sometimes have to take the non-violent route by capturing them. One task, in particular, requires you to get the Yian Kut-Ku during the New Ecosystems quest. Here's how to complete this Monster Hunter Wilds quest. How to get Yian Kut-Ku in MHW New Ecosystems quest The Shock Trap and Tranq Bomb are the key items you need to capture the Yian Kut-Ku. You can prepare yourself beforehand by making the Shock Trap with a Trap Tool and Thunderbug Capacitor, as well as a Sleep Herb and Parashroom for the Tranq Bomb. If you've already set off on this quest or don't have the ingredients, don't worry. The items are sent to you via the Supply Items inventory, including some First Aid Meds and a Large Dung Pod. When you initially encounter the Yian Kut-Ku, other creatures will be nearby to stir up some trouble. Use a Large Dung Pod to scare them away, allowing you to keep your focus on the primary target. The goal is to inflict enough damage until the Yian Kut-Ku starts limping (you might need to hit it a few times more afterward). Veteran Monster Hunter players will likely know all about this strategy, mainly since a similar method is used in World.

Now, set up the Shock Trap and wait for the Yian Kut-Ku to get caught. Unleash two Tranq Bombs to make it fall asleep. If it doesn't work, you must inflict more damage on the monster to weaken it and repeat the process.

I found it best to attack the creature until Alma orders you to set up the trap. If you run out of materials, you can look around the Scarlet Forest or return to Base Camp to make more Shock Traps and Tranq Bombs. Once the Yian Kut-Ku falls asleep, the New Ecosystem quest will conclude, rewarding you with some new handy items.
