In *Monster Hunter Wilds*, finding resources like Sharp Fangs can be essential for crafting and progressing in the game. These fangs are crucial for forging beginner-tier gear sets, such as Chatacabra and Talioth armor, and can be found early on in the Windward Plains as you begin your adventure.
How To Get Sharp Fang in Monster Hunter Wilds
To start your hunt for Sharp Fangs, engage in one of the initial optional quests like "Beware the Chatacabra" or "The Desert is Demanding." These quests will guide you to the Windward Plains and give you a generous 50-minute window to explore. Before setting out, consider boosting your stats by cooking and eating a meal.
Head east to Area 8, a vast region teeming with smaller monsters. While various creatures here might drop Sharp Fangs, your prime target should be the Gaijos.
Gaijos
Gaijos are small leviathan monsters resembling crocodiles, often found near or in riverbeds. You can locate them by scanning for purple diamonds on the interactive map near water sources. These creatures are relatively easy to defeat due to their low health. After taking down a Gaijos, carve its carcass to obtain 1 x Sharp Fang. Gaijos are a guaranteed source of Sharp Fangs, making them a priority for farming. With four to five Gaijos typically available in the Windward Plains, you can repeatedly enter through optional quests to gather more fangs as needed.
Talioth
Another potential source of Sharp Fangs, though not guaranteed, is the Talioth. These bipedal monsters roam in packs in Area 8 and occasionally Area 13. While they are tougher than Gaijos, they're still manageable with starter weapons. Carving Talioth carcasses might yield Sharp Fangs along with other items like Talioth Scales. Additionally, hunting Talioths helps you complete the "The Desert is Demanding" quest, which requires you to kill 8 Talioths.
By focusing on these strategies, you can efficiently farm Sharp Fangs in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. For more tips and tricks, be sure to check out our other guides, including how to master the Great Sword with all its moves and combos.
