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 details its location.
Midway through Chapter 3, the Black Flame (Nu Udra) appears in the Oilwell Basin before disappearing. Your mission: find and defeat it.
Begin at Base Camp and proceed to Zone 9 of the Oilwell Basin, as shown in the map below.
Along the way, you'll encounter tar tracks. Examining them reveals the Black Flame's trail, automatically alerting your scoutflies. Follow the green scoutfly path to Zone 9, near the large flaming crater, to pinpoint the Black Flame's location.
The Black Flame, a tentacled beast wielding fire-based attacks, presents a challenging fight. Prioritize severing its tentacles to expose vulnerable areas, maximizing material acquisition after its defeat.
To mitigate the region's intense heat, carry several Cool Drinks to prevent continuous health loss.
This concludes the Black Flame hunting guide. For more Monster Hunter Wilds tips and tricks, including Palico language changes and monster capture techniques, explore The Escapist's comprehensive game coverage.
