Unlocking achievements in *Monster Hunter Rise* isn't always about slaying the biggest beasts. To snag the "A Prize Held High" trophy/achievement, you'll need to capture a specific creature: the Curioshell Crab. Forget dragons; this tiny crustacean holds the key!
Finding this elusive crab can be tricky, as it roams various maps. However, the Scarlet Forest offers a reliable hunting ground. Head to Area 6: Flowering Rocks pop-up camp (located between Areas 2 and 6). Near the water puddle in this area, the Curioshell Crab frequently spawns. If you're having trouble spotting it, keep an eye out for Alma's question about a creature holding something—that's your cue!
Equip your Capture Net, aim for the orange reticle, and capture the crab. A successful capture will reward you with both the Curioshell Crab and an Ancient Wyvern Coin. Remember, these crabs are speedy, so anticipate their movements for a clean catch. While other locations like Area 13 of the Windward Plains and Area 8 of the Scarlet Forest also offer potential spawning points, our testing shows Area 6 of the Scarlet Forest to be the most consistent.
That's all you need to know about obtaining the "A Prize Held High" trophy/achievement in *Monster Hunter Rise*. For more *Monster Hunter Rise* guides and information, check out The Escapist.
