Mine Mining Outcrops in the Oilwell Basin to get Firestone. In low rank, focus on areas 13–16; in high rank, add areas 4, 6, and 7 to your route. Firestone is a random ore yield, so check several outcrops rather than relying on one.

Where to find Firestone

Firestone comes from Mining Outcrops in the Oilwell Basin. You do not need a mining tool or pickaxe to gather from them. Outcrops can yield different regional ores depending on rank, and Firestone is not guaranteed at every node. [Shacknews; Prima Games; Game8]

To make the nodes easier to locate, open the detailed map and use its icon filters to show Mining Outcrops. [Prima Games]

Which areas to mine

Low rank

Prioritize areas 13 through 16. Shacknews identifies these lower-level Oilwell Basin outcrops as the low-rank Firestone route. [Shacknews]

Monster Hunter Wilds Steelbook
  • Wild New Adventure – Monster Hunter Wilds follows the story of a special Research Commission investigating the Forbidden Lands. Fully voiced for the first time in the series, the hunter is joined in their journey by a colorful cast of characters, including a Palico partner, Guild-appointed Handler Alma, trusty smithy Gemma, and the mysterious child Nata. Together, the team ventures into an unexplored new frontier where surprises await around every corner.
  • A Living World – The Forbidden Lands spans multiple biomes with dynamic identities, such as the Windward Plains and Scarlet Forest, where the ecosystems shift between vibrant seasons brimming with life, and unforgiving climates where monsters fight over limited resources. Changes in the landscape will impact the creatures that live there and push hunters to adapt as well.
  • New Monsters and Wildlife – Monster Hunter Wilds features a variety of new creatures, ranging from herds of small species to large monsters – some of which roam the Forbidden Lands in packs. Every creature hunters encounter in the wild has carved out a special place in its habitat and possesses unique attacks and behaviors.
  • Players can also now ride atop the Seikret, an agile new mount enabling hunters to traverse difficult terrain, perform actions like sharpening weapons on the move, and switch between two weapons while out on hunts!
  • Evolved Hunting Action – The series’ acclaimed action-packed gameplay is back and more exciting than ever! Hunters can look forward to tracking down monsters with an array of new moves, special abilities, equipment, and more. The action also now flows seamlessly from cutscenes to gameplay, resulting in a new level of immersion.

High rank

Include areas 4, 6, and 7 as well as the lower-level route. Game8’s route visits areas 7, 6, and 4, then continues through areas 14 and 16 near Mining Cave and areas 13 and 17 near Limestone Cavern. [Game8]

How to farm Firestone efficiently

  1. Filter the detailed map for Mining Outcrops. This makes the gathering nodes easier to spot while moving through the basin. [Prima Games]
  2. Follow the route for your rank. In low rank, cover areas 13–16. In high rank, start at area 7 from Base Camp, visit areas 6 and 4 near Dilapidated Roadway camp, then gather in areas 14 and 16 near Mining Cave and 13 and 17 near Limestone Cavern. [Game8]
  3. Gather from multiple outcrops. Since the ore result is random, checking several nodes is more dependable than waiting at one for Firestone. [Game8]
  4. Return after the nodes refresh. Game8 reports a 15-minute Mining Outcrop cooldown. It also describes a way to refresh by starting an Oilwell Basin Optional Quest, gathering, and selecting “Return from Quest.” The timer and reset behavior are guide-reported mechanics, not confirmed by an official Capcom source, so check that the method still works in your current game build before depending on it. [Game8]

Other ways to obtain Firestone

Game8 also reports that Yabran at Azuz may offer Firestone through a trader inventory that rotates daily. Treat this as a secondary option: availability depends on the changing stock, and the information comes from a third-party guide. [Game8]

What Firestone is used for

Firestone is a crafting material for weapons and armor. Shacknews names Quematrice weapon upgrades and several high-rank armor pieces among its uses. The in-game item description, reproduced by MHWildsBuild, reads: “Ore that is scorching even at room temperature. Its heat can be used to fuse materials.” [Shacknews; MHWildsBuild]
