This currency (the bottle caps) can be found in Everdens. These are fixed Monster Dens in particular locations. The locations are marked on the map, and you can find them easily.
These places have treasure chests which have bottle caps inside them. The number of bottle caps inside each treasure chest is not specific, it ranges from 6 to 10 or even more.
Everdens being bigger in size compared to other dens have a lot of resources and different types of monsters to defend said riches. It is advised to check your team before going out to find the treasure chests. Explore the area carefully so you do not miss any chest.
Quests for Bottle Caps
Another source to find bottle caps is through quests. You can find some quests on the Quest Board, or you will encounter some NPCs who offer you quests and give you bottle caps in exchange.
It is recommended to search the dens; this is a more efficient way to find bottle caps in MH Stories 2. A Monstie with Nest-Search ability will help you a lot to look for bottle caps.
The Monstie can mark every Den. And if you don’t have the ability to search the area in the best way possible, then you can always note down the location of these Everdens, as they don’t randomly spawn so the dens will be always in the same spot, and come back when you have the abilities for a proper search.
