🏆 Key Takeaways: The Completionist’s Shortcut
- ➤The 1% Nightmare: “Miniature” and “Giant” crowns have a miserable 1-3% spawn rate. Legit farming takes 300+ hours.
- ➤Solution A (Natural): Use the “Force Gold Crown” script to guarantee the next monster you fight is maximum size.
- ➤Solution B (Instant): Use the “Guild Card Editor” to manually check off the achievements without fighting.
- ➤Winter Update Monsters: Our trainer is already updated for the new Tundra monsters (Fenrir Wolf, Glacial Agnaktor).
You have defeated the final boss. You have crafted the best armor. You are ready to uninstall… but wait. You check your Steam/PS5 achievements and see it:
“Giant Crown Master: Obtain a gold crown for almost every monster in your hunting log.”
This is the “Platinum Killer.” In Monster Hunter Wilds, finding a monster of a specific size is pure RNG (Random Number Generation). Some players measure pixels on their screen, enter a quest, measure, and reset… for weeks. Stop measuring pixels. There is a better way with XmodHub.
Why “Crown Hunting” is Broken
In previous games, certain Event Quests gave guaranteed crowns. In MH Wilds, Capcom has been stingy. Most crowns must be found in “Investigation” type quests with strict conditions.
The Nightmare List: Hardest Crowns in 2025
Not all monsters are created equal. Based on Reddit and Steam Community data, these are the top 5 monsters players are currently quitting the game over:
Only spawns in blizzards. Visual size is obscured by snow, making manual measurement nearly impossible.
Kushala Daora and Teostra investigations are rare. Wasting a 15-minute investigation on a small monster hurts.
Bazelgeuse variants that interrupt fights. It’s hard to measure a monster that is constantly bombing you.
The Old Way: “The Shock Trap Method”
Before mods, hunters used the “Shock Trap Method.” This involves:
- 1. Put the monster to sleep or trap it.
- 2. Stand next to its leg.
- 3. Check if your character’s head reaches a specific spike on the monster’s knee.
- 4. If it looks 1% off? Abandon Quest. Reload. Repeat 200 times.
Is this gameplay? No. It’s madness. XmodHub lets you bypass this entire loop and just fight the “King Size” monster immediately.
How to Unlock Winter Update Monsters (The Hard Way)
Before you can even farm for crowns, you need to unlock the new monsters. Players asking “Where is Fenrir Wolf?” The official requirements are brutal:
Don’t have 200 hours to grind generic mobs just to fight the new boss? Use the Hunter Rank Editor to hit MR 200 in seconds and access the content you paid for.
The “Frost King” Armor: Is it Worth the Grind?
Everyone is talking about the new “Frost King Gamma” armor set. It is currently the Meta for Long Sword and Bow users due to the new skill “Absolute Zero” (freezes monster stamina).
🛡️ Crafting Requirements (Per Piece):
- • 1x Azure Dragon Mantle (1% Drop)
- • 3x Glacial Crowns (Break Head Only)
- • 50,000 Zenny
Meta Score
Must-have for DPS
Solution 1: “Force Spawn” (The Legit Feel)
If you still want to fight the monsters but just hate the RNG, use the Monster Size Modifier included in our trainer.
How it works:
- Open the XmodHub Menu.
- Select “Next Monster Size: Giant Crown” (or Mini Crown).
- Start any quest.
- The monster will spawn at 125% size. Kill it, and the achievement pops naturally.
*Note: This is safe for online play, though your teammates might be surprised by how huge the Rathalos is!
Solution 2: “Guild Card Editor” (The Instant Fix)
Don’t want to fight the same monster again? We get it. For the ultimate time-saver, use the Guild Card Editor.
This tool directly modifies your save file’s internal log. You can simply toggle “Gold Crown Obtained” for every monster in the game, including the new Winter Update beasts.
