Monster Hunter Wilds simplifies many series mechanics, making monster tracking almost unnecessary. However, there's one exception: the Black Flame. Here's how to find it.
Tracking the Black Flame in Monster Hunter Wilds
Around the midpoint of Monster Hunter Wilds' main story, Chapter 3 introduces the Black Flame. After a brief appearance, it vanishes into the Oilwell Basin. Your task: find and defeat it.
Exit Base Camp and head towards Zone 9 of the Oilwell Basin (see map below).

Along the way, you'll discover tar tracks. Examining them reveals the Black Flame's trail, automatically leading your scoutflies. Follow the green path illuminated by the scoutflies in Zone 9, near the large flaming crater, to locate the Black Flame.
The Black Flame (also known as Nu Udra) is a tentacled monster wielding fire-based attacks. Prioritize severing its tentacles to simplify the fight and access its inner weak points for better material rewards.
To combat the region's intense heat, carry plenty of Cool Drinks to prevent continuous health depletion.
That's how to find the Black Flame in Monster Hunter Wilds. Check out The Escapist for more game tips, such as changing your Palico's language and mastering monster capture techniques.
