Monster Hunter Wilds thrives on its dynamic combat and high-stakes battles, and nothing highlights that more than its rotating event quests. These time-limited challenges often feature fierce encounters and offer access to unique materials and stylish gear that can’t be earned anywhere else. One such unmissable quest is “An Inferno Laid Bare”, an endgame encounter set deep in the burning caverns of the Oilwell Basin.

If you’re looking to tackle this infernal showdown and unlock the coveted Pinion Necklace and Felyne Bell Collar armor pieces, this guide has everything you need to know—from how to start the quest to crafting your exclusive gear before the July 22, 2025 deadline.

How to Unlock “An Inferno Laid Bare”

Before you can dive into the heat of this quest, there are a few prerequisites:

• Hunter Rank (HR) 31 or higher is required.

• You must have completed “A World Turned Upside” in Chapter 5-2 of the story.

This same milestone also unlocks Lagiacrus, so if you’re progressing through Chapter 5, this event will slot in naturally as part of your post-story High Rank exploration.

Once eligible, “An Inferno Laid Bare” is automatically added to your list of event quests. Head to Alma at Base Camp or Lotte at the Grand Hub to access and launch the mission.

Quest Objective: Slay Nu Udra in Firespring

The central challenge of “An Inferno Laid Bare” is taking down the Nu Udra, a powerful fire-element monster found in the Firespring zone of the Oilwell Basin. This fight is as brutal as it is beautiful—expect molten terrain, intense heat damage, and high-impact attacks.

Preparation Tips:

• Elemental Advantage: Nu Udra is highly susceptible to Water. If you haven’t yet crafted an Artian Water-element weapon, now is the time.

• Armor Skills: Fire Resistance and Heat Resistance are both incredibly valuable. Consider augmenting your gear with decorations or charms that boost these stats.

• Essential Items:

  • Cool Drinks to prevent heat-based health drain.

  • Mega Potions, Max Potions, and Ancient Potions for survivability.

  • Nullberries to remove potential fireblight effects.

• Support Hunters: If you’re hunting solo, recruit Support Hunters for added offense or healing. NPCs like Alma and Lotte can assist with this.

• Eat Before Battle: Use either the Grand Hub’s canteen or your camp’s meal prep system to boost your stats before heading out.

How to Defeat Nu Udra

Nu Udra is not a monster to take lightly. With its sprawling, tentacle-covered body and massive AoE fire attacks, the key is maintaining mobility and distance when needed.

Key Combat Tips:

• Target the Tentacles: Breaking Nu Udra’s appendages reduces its attack range and grants better part rewards.

• Attack During Oil Phases: Nu Udra sometimes becomes coated in flammable oil. This is your window to stagger it with elemental attacks before it ignites the battlefield.

• Watch for Combos: Nu Udra can combo swipe, slam, and erupt fire in a single flurry. Always be ready to roll cancel or use your wirebug (or equivalent traversal mechanic).

Defeating Nu Udra will reward you with standard monster materials, and more importantly, the event-exclusive Necklace Tickets, required for crafting the limited-time gear.

Pro Tip: Use Lucky Vouchers before starting the quest to increase your odds of receiving more Necklace Tickets per completion.

Crafting the Pinion Necklace (Hunter Armor)

Once you’ve claimed enough Necklace Tickets, head over to Gemma’s Forge to create the Pinion Necklace Alpha set.

Crafting Requirements:

• 3 × Necklace Tickets

• 5 × Nu Udra Hide+

• 2 × Nu Udra Tentacle+

• 3 × Nu Udra Oilmucus+

• 6000 × Zenny

Though its armor stats are moderate, the real value of the Pinion Necklace lies in its layered armor design—a sleek addition to any fashion hunter’s wardrobe. Equip it purely for aesthetic flair while keeping your top-tier armor stats underneath.

Crafting the Felyne Bell Collar (Palico Armor)

Don’t forget your trusty Palico! You can also craft a themed chest piece for your companion.

Crafting Requirements:

• 1 × Necklace Ticket

• 2 × Nu Udra Spike+

Like the Pinion Necklace, the Felyne Bell Collar is usable as both functional gear and a layered cosmetic, giving your Palico a fiery look to match the high-stakes battle.

Limited-Time Availability

“An Inferno Laid Bare” is only available until July 22, 2025, so time your farming accordingly. The exclusive gear won’t return for a long time, if ever—so if you’re a collector or just like turning heads in the Grand Hub, this is the event to grind.
