In Monster Hunter Wilds, most crafting supplies will generally point you in the right direction for where to find them, but this isn’t the case with Monster Fluid. To make matters worse, you might not encounter this resource at all due to the limited information available about it.
Despite its scarcity, there are specific locations that can help increase your chances of finding it. If you’re looking to gather Monster Fluid quickly and consistently, this guide will provide you with some useful insights.
How To Acquire Monster Fluid
Only certain creatures drop Monster Fluid, similar to Guardian Secret Feathers. The monsters you target can influence the likelihood of obtaining this resource.
Monsters that are more likely to yield Monster Fluid include Nerscylla Hatchlings. These can typically be found in the Iceshard Cliffs, making them relatively easy to locate.
Keep in mind that Monster Fluid is categorized as a Low Rank resource, which means you might not find it while in High Rank. If you need it while in High Rank, you can return to Alma’s Quest Counter and take on an Optional Quest in the Iceshard Cliffs.
Once you’re in the Iceshard Cliffs, check Areas 2 and 4. These spots have a good number of Nerscylla Hatchlings. There are also some that may appear in other areas, such as Area 3, so explore around this region thoroughly.
Additionally, you can place a waypoint on the hatchling as they’ll appear on your map.
While Nerscylla Hatchlings are the most reliable source, other monsters can drop Monster Fluid too, albeit with a lower chance. These include:
- Lala Barina found in the Scarlet Forest.
- Bulaqchi in the Windward Plains.
- Comaqchi in the Iceshard Cliffs.
- Vespoid which can appear in the Scarlet Forest, Oilwell Basin, and Iceshard Cliffs.
How To Farm Monster Fluid
Even though you can defeat Nerscylla Hatchlings and the other monsters without much problem, you’ll still need to wait for them to respawn if you’re collecting materials.
Keep in mind that there’s a chance these monsters might not drop Monster Fluid despite a high drop rate.
If your goal is to stockpile Monster Fluid in a short period, consider tackling some Optional Quests. There are several quests available that may be a more efficient way to gather Monster Fluid.
When you go to Alma’s Quest Counter, navigate to the Optional Quest tab and look for these quests:
- Buggin’ in the Desert
- Buggin’ in the Scarlet Forest
- Every Rose…
- Buggin’ in the Cliffs
Most of these quests should already be available to you as they are located in the starting areas of Monster Hunter Wilds.
In the quest Buggin’ in the Desert, you can potentially acquire more Monster Fluid in addition to what is given as a reward.
Your task is to eliminate 12 Bulaqchi. However, avoid killing all of them; leave some alive since they will respawn if not all are defeated.
By not exterminating all the Bulaqchi, they eventually turn into Rotten Carcasses after a short wait. When you return and carve them, each one should provide one Monster Fluid.
Typically, the wait time is just a few minutes. You need to remain in the same area as the monsters during this time, ensuring that not all of them are dead.
You can apply this technique with other monsters found in different quests to achieve similar results. So, when you find yourself short on Monster Fluid, feel free to return and repeat the steps outlined above.
