How to Find the Black Flame in Monster Hunter Wilds

In *Monster Hunter Wilds*, the series has streamlined many of its systems, making tracking monsters less of a necessity. However, there's one notable exception: the Black Flame. Here’s a detailed guide on how to locate and confront the Black Flame in *Monster Hunter Wilds*.

Tracking the Black Flame in Monster Hunter Wilds

Around the midpoint of the main storyline, specifically in Chapter 3, the elusive Black Flame makes its appearance in the Oilwell Basin before swiftly disappearing. Your mission is to track it down and ultimately slay it.

Begin your quest by departing from the Base Camp and heading towards Zone 9 of the region, as shown in the map screenshot below.

As you make your way to Zone 9, keep an eye out for tar tracks on the ground. Interact with these tracks, and your Hunter will pick up the Black Flame's trail. This will automatically engage your scoutflies, making it easier to track the monster's precise location. Follow the green path illuminated by the scoutflies to reach Zone 9, where you'll find the giant flaming crater.

The Black Flame, also known as Nu Udra, is a formidable creature with tentacles and the ability to unleash fire-based attacks. To simplify the battle, start by severing a few of its tentacles. This tactic will allow you to get closer to its vulnerable inner points, enabling you to gather more materials after defeating it.

It's wise to carry Cool Drinks with you to combat the region's heat, as prolonged exposure can lead to continuous health depletion.

And that's the complete guide on how to find and defeat the Black Flame in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. For more tips and in-depth information on the game, including how to change your Palico's language and capture other monsters, be sure to visit The Escapist.
