In Monster Hunter Wilds there is a true flood of endemic creatures. Some of them you will also need to catch as part of side quests. One of them is the Megawatt Snail. We will show you where to find it and how to catch it.
For which side quest do I need the Megawatt Snail?
The quest for which you need the Megawatt Snail is called “Dareel’s Special Research Report” and is part of a side quest series where you are supposed to find and catch several endemic creatures for the research unit.
In this quest, you are supposed to find a mutated variant of the Kilowatt Snail for Dareel at the Windy Base Camp – the Megawatt Snail (engl. Gillopod). We will show you where you can find it and how to distinguish it from the Kilowatt Snail.
Finding and Catching the Megawatt Snail – Here’s How
Where do I find and catch the Megawatt Snail? You will find the Megawatt Snail in Area 8 in Wyveria.
You can find it in this vicinity on the map:
It hangs like its relative, the Kilowatt Snail, on the wall and initially does not look like a classic snail:
In focus you see the Megawatt Snail, next to its non-mutated counterparts. The Megawatt Snail is larger and bluer, so you should be able to recognize it easily.
Once you have found it, simply equip your catching net, aim fairly accurately, and the sought-after creature will land in your net, allowing you to complete the quest with Dareel at the Windy Base.
