“I want to strengthen my equipment, but my zenny is decreasing…”
This is common in the Monster Hunter series, but especially in this work Monster Hunter Wilds, towards the end of the game, the money required for equipment and materials increases rapidly.
This time, we will introduce the latest (money-making) route that is actually reproducible.
Although “1 million Zeni in 1 hour” is not a guaranteed number, If you have the right strategy and conditions, it is an efficient money strategy method that allows you to aim for hundreds of thousands to around 1 million yen.
Basics of money strategy: What should I sell to make money?
The first thing you need to know is “items with high value that can be obtained by selling”.
- Platinum Fish/Golden Fish → Ideal for the main route to earn Zenny by selling scales.
Monster materials/rare materials → Sell materials obtained through quests and subjugation.
High-reward quest clear reward → Events and high-rank quests have a lot of Zenny. In particular, “white goldfish/goldfish scales” are expensive at 1,000 to 2,000 zeni each.
The strongest money strategy route: Scale earning in Scarlet Forest
🔥 The first target is “white goldfish/goldfish”
The most efficient and stable money strategy in this work is Catching and selling fish.
In particular, the spots near Area 8 of Scarlet Forest are popular, and the fish are densely packed, making it easy to earn a large amount in a short amount of time.
📍 Spot flow (emphasis on efficiency)
- Pop-up camp set up in Area 8 (Scarlet Forest)
→ Required to minimize travel time.
Enter the cave and catch platinum and goldfish
→ We recommend a trapping net. Difficult to escape and increase efficiency.
Once you have caught all the fish, move to another area → Return
→ You can loop as the fish keep reappearing as you move.
Selling
→ Just collect and sell fish scales. You can also make more money by selling materials.
⏱ Numerical guideline (realistic efficiency)
It is reported that if you do it well, you can earn around 300,000 to 650,000 Zeni in an hour using this fish route. Depending on the conditions, it is possible to further increase the amount with equipment, skills, and items, but the realistic line is that 1,000,000 zenny depends on the situation.
Earn more by selling materials
Not only the amount of fish you earn, but the following materials also make a difference in price.
🐾 Monster material
You can sell any unnecessary materials after defeating monsters.
Especially Rare materials for high-rank/durable monsters tend to be in the thousands to tens of thousands.
- Example: Guardian type rare gems and rubies (Rath type)
- Basically, sell “unused part materials”
Earn by completing quests
In addition to just fish and materials, it is also standard to go around specific quests (especially events and high reward quests).
Some event quests have high zenny rewards, and if you consider the circulation efficiency, you can earn money from both materials and quest rewards.
Tips to make it even easier to earn
The following tips will further improve your financial efficiency:
✔ Be conscious of zero missed fish/materials
Reliably catch platinum and goldfish with a capture net.
It is said that a trapping net has a greater benefit in reducing travel time than a fishing rod.
✔ Summarize the timing of sale
Selling items in bulk reduces the number of times you have to return to town.
What to check when selling:
- Prioritize high priced items
- Sell unused materials immediately without stocking them
With map: Main earning spots
Keep an eye on the following spots:
📍 Scarlet Forest Area 8
- Platinum and goldfish are crowded in a small cave
- Ideal as a feeding ground for capture nets
- High-speed loop possible with pop-up camp installation
📍 Windward Plains Area 14
- Fish also appear, improve efficiency while collecting materials
- Easy to rotate as a moving point
Incorporating these into small loops creates a
time-efficient money-making route.
Summary: Priority order of financial measures
- Mainly fish hunting loop (platinum fish/golden fish) (expensive/repeatable)
- Collect materials from hunting and sell them (additional earnings)
- Utilize events and high reward quests (collective zenny and rare materials)
Realistically, 300,000 to 650,000 Zeny/hour is the mainstream, but it can be extended further depending on the conditions and ingenuity. Get powerful equipment and make your hunting life more comfortable with efficient money management!
