How to Obtain Dragonite in Monster Hunter Wilds? A Simple and Easy Guide!

Dragonite is a valuable resource in Monster Hunter Wilds, essential for upgrading your weapons and crafting specific equipment. Here’s a simple guide to help you get this coveted resource.

You can primarily obtain Dragonite in two ways: mining deposits and quest rewards. Mining deposits are the most reliable method. You can find them in three main regions: the Oil Basin, the Ice Cliffs, and the Wyveria Ruins. Some main story missions and side quests also reward you with Dragonite.

Mining Deposits:

To extract Dragonite from mining deposits, look for large geode-like structures with sharp blue crystals. Approach them and press the button indicated on the screen (B on Xbox, Circle on PlayStation, F on PC). Each deposit can give you up to three items, sometimes more if your companions help.

The best areas for mining Dragonite are:

• Oil Basin: Zone 13 has three deposits just outside the camp, and zones 14 and 16 have three more in a circuit.

• Wyveria Ruins: Several deposits are near the camp in zone 9, especially in zones 8, 9, and 10.

• Ice Cliffs: Zone 8 offers three deposits close to each other on the upper level.

Tips for Optimizing Collection:

• Use the map to activate the "resources" filter to easily locate mining deposits.

• Once identified, use the Seikret taxi to get there quickly.

• Switch between different zones since deposits regenerate every 15 minutes.

• Even if you don’t need Dragonite immediately, gather it regularly during your expeditions.

• Completing side quests that reward you with Dragonite can also diversify your sources.

Dragonite can also be obtained by hunting Kranodaths in the Oil Basin. These small monsters have a chance to drop Dragonite when defeated.

Dragonite is mainly used to upgrade mineral-type weapons at the forge, craft specific armor sets, and create special talismans. If you're at expert rank and running low on Dragonite, hunting Kranodaths is a great alternative.
