Herbivore carapaces are an equipment material in Monster Hunter Wilds. You’ll get them from hunting certain small monsters or as rewards for certain hunts once you reach High Rank. The Low Rank version is called an herbivore shell.

How to get herbivore carapaces in Monster Hunter Wilds
Herbivore carapaces come from High Rank Ceratonoths. And that’s it. You’ve got a 70% chance of getting an herbivore carapace each time you carve a slain Ceratonoth.
Ceratonoths are only found in the Windward Plains. They’re pretty abundant, though. Head to your map and open the icon filter to find some — male or female, it doesn’t matter — and set a waypoint for your Seikret.
There aren’t any hunts that reward herbivore carapaces and no large monster drops them.
To also help you understand Monster Hunter Wilds, we explain how to capture monsters, how to change weapons, provide some Seikret tips, and teach you how layered armor works.
