How to Unlock the Monster (Squid) Hunter Trophy/Achievement in Monster Hunter Wilds

While fishing might not be central to the main storyline, it offers a delightful diversion and its own unique questline. Completing these quests will equip you with the necessary tools to pursue this trophy and achievement.

To begin, you'll need to progress through Kanya's fishing questline. This involves completing the following side quests by gathering the required items:

• Seeking the Goldenfish: Head to the caves and find pools of water to catch the Goldenfish. The Scarlet Forest in Area 6 is a good spot, but make sure to use either the Golden Bughead or Common Wood Minnow baits. The Fallow weather state increases the likelihood of the fish spawning.
• Fishing for Favor: Next, catch the Gravid Bowfin at the Scarlet Forest base camp during the Plenty weather condition. Equip the Emerald Jitterbait and cast your line to secure this fish.
• The Catch of a Lifetime!: For this quest, you need to catch a Whopper, any large fish that triggers the reeling minigame. Tuna is a common choice, so go to the lake in Area 17 of the Scarlet Forest, hook a big fish, and reel it in patiently.

Once you've completed these quests, Kanya will introduce the Razzle Dazzle quest, which is your gateway to the Monster (Squid) Hunter trophy or achievement. Here's what you need to do:

• Travel to the Scarlet Forest, specifically Area 17. Ensure the weather is either Downpour in Inclemency. You can use the grill to wait or rest at your camp to change the conditions.
• Walk into the deep end of the lake until you can go no further. Look for squids swimming around. If none are present, fast travel to another location and return to see if they spawn.
• Equip the Tentacle Jig provided by Kanya and start fishing. While the quest requires you to catch the Grand Escunite, your goal for the trophy and achievement is the Goliath Squid. Look for shells glowing blue.
• If you hook a squid and the reeling minigame begins, you're on the right track. Keep fighting the creature and reel it in when it tires. Once it's close enough to the shore, you'll successfully pull it out and unlock the trophy or achievement.

That's all you need to know to secure the Monster (Squid) Hunter trophy or achievement in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. For more tips and guides, be sure to explore The Escapist.
