Torrent Sacs in Monster Hunter Wilds are crucial crafting materials for crafting strong weapons and armor. They are rare drops from two of the strongest monsters, Balahara and Uth Duna, and thus are much sought after by hunters who wish to improve their equipment. As these enemies are difficult to kill, careful fighting and proper utilization of traps and elemental vulnerabilities are the most important aspects of farming Torrent Sacs effectively. Whether you’re doing side quests or hunting these creatures in the wild, gathering sufficient Torrent Sacs will take patience and perseverance. This guide will take you through the optimal means of finding, farming, and utilizing Torrent Sacs in Monster Hunter Wilds.
Torrent Sacs in Monster Hunter Wilds
Torrent Sacs are valuable crafting materials in Monster Hunter Wilds that you can collect by hunting specific large monsters. These sacs have a decent drop rate, with an 18% chance from Balahara and a 16% chance from Uth Duna. Both of these creatures are formidable foes, requiring strategic combat to take down.
They are particularly weak to Thunder-based attacks and vulnerable to status effects like Sleep, Paralysis, Blastblight, and Exhaust. To get advantage in battle, you can use tools like Flash Pods, Shock Traps, and Pitfall Traps. If you’re facing Balahara, Sonic Bombs can also be effective.
Torrent Sac Location
You can’t search for Torrent Sacs directly on the map since they are dropped by Uth Duna and Balahara, but you can track these monsters instead. To do this, open the map and look for their moving icons in the region. While you can’t filter for large monsters in the menu, their icons are prominent and easy to spot. Once you have located your target, set a waypoint to head straight to it and begin the hunt for your Torrent Sacs.
To farm Torrent Sacs, you WIll need to hunt these monsters in their respective habitats. Balahara can be found roaming the Windward Plains, while Uth Duna resides in the Scarlet Forest. Since an optional quest is available, you can take on these monsters strategically to maximize your chances of collecting the Torrent Sacs you need.
You’ll encounter both Balahara and Uth Duna during Chapter 1 of the main story in Monster Hunter Wilds, but defeating them doesn’t guarantee that you’ll receive a Torrent Sac. If you’re specifically looking for this item, there are certain quests you can complete to increase your chances. These include The Desert Knows Not the Sea, A Leviathan’s Temper, Tide Overtaking Timber, and One Thick Veil. Some of these are optional quests, while Tide Overtaking Timber is an assignment.
Completing these quests not only gives you a chance to obtain Torrent Sacs but also rewards you with other valuable items. Also there is an element of RNG involved, you may not always get a Torrent Sac when carving Balahara or Uth Duna. You might need to hunt them multiple times before successfully collecting the item.
