Mastering the Hunt: Locating the Black Flame in Monster Hunter Wilds
Monster Hunter Wilds simplifies many series mechanics, minimizing the need for extensive monster tracking. However, one exception remains: the elusive Black Flame. This guide outlines how to find and defeat this formidable foe.
The Black Flame encounter occurs around Chapter 3, within the Oilwell Basin. After a brief appearance, it vanishes, requiring you to track its location.
Begin at Base Camp and proceed to Zone 9 of the Oilwell Basin, as shown in the map below.
Along the route, you'll discover tar tracks. Examining these will activate the trail, automatically notifying your scoutflies. Follow the illuminated green path to Zone 9, near the large flaming crater, to pinpoint the Black Flame's location.
The Black Flame (Nu Udra) is a multi-tentacled creature that utilizes fire-based attacks. Prioritize targeting its tentacles to simplify the battle and expose vulnerable areas for increased material acquisition.
Remember to carry Cool Drinks to mitigate the region's intense heat and prevent continuous health depletion.
