Acquire Sharp Fangs in Monster Hunter Wilds: A Comprehensive Guide

Early access to Sharp Fangs is possible by exploring the Windward Plains, accessible through optional quests like "Beware the Chatacabra" or "The Desert is Demanding." These quests provide a generous 50-minute time limit. Consider consuming a meal for enhanced stamina and health before embarking.

Focus your efforts on Area 8 of the Windward Plains, a large area teeming with smaller monsters. While several creatures can drop Sharp Fangs, Gaijos are the most reliable source.

Targeting Gaijos for Maximum Efficiency

Gaijos, crocodile-like leviathans, are typically found near or in riverbeds. Their location is easily identified on the map via purple diamond markers near water sources. They possess low health, making them quick and easy targets. Each defeated Gaijo guarantees a single Sharp Fang upon carving.

With several Gaijos spawning in Area 8, repeatedly completing Windward Plains optional quests offers a highly effective farming method.

Talioth: An Alternative Source

Talioth, bipedal creatures found in packs in Area 8 and sometimes Area 13, offer a chance for Sharp Fang drops, though not guaranteed. They present a slightly greater challenge than Gaijos but remain manageable with starting equipment. Hunting Talioths also provides progress towards the "The Desert is Demanding" quest.
