Man last night I had my first capture quest and had no idea how to do it. Failed it once (accidentally killed the monster), wasted 7 pit fall traps and about 40 tranq bombs. Then after a long time on my second try I notice my palico saying that the monster was ripe for capture and I succeded then.

Capture quests always threw a wrench into progression for new hunters, as they break a bit the flow. You have to look for signs the monster is weakening. In Rise it is easy as never before, because - as you noted - your Palico tells you it is ripe and also the monster icon on the top right gets a small blue icon below it to indicate it can be captured. If you go for the kill this indicates also you are close to killing.

BTW: There is a capturing training quest.

I’m completley to those indicators you are talking about :P

And I multiple times tried to look for signs that the monster was tiring either undershooting or overshooting until my palico said it was time :P
