How to Farm Bonepiles

Wait for Upsurges

Monster Hunter Wilds - Look Out for Upsurges

It best to farm bones during Bonepile Upsurges. These random events can occur on each locale which causes more Bonepile nodes to spawn and have higher chances of having rare bones.

Check the weather Map Overview for each location to check for current and upcoming events such as Bonepile Upsurges.

Use the Filter Icons to Highlight Bonepiles

Monster Hunter Wilds - Use Filter Icons to Highlight Bonepiles

You can use the map's Filter Icons feature to highlight each Bonepile node in your map and help you all the nodes faster. Press the directional keys while having the map open to access the Filter Icons and select Bonepiles to highlight them.

Alternatively, you can also use this to go through all the Bonepile nodes and set them as waypoints one a time to have your Seikret take you there automatically.

Equip the Geologist Skill

Monster Hunter Wilds - Equip the Geologist Skill

The Geologist skill is the most important Skill when farming Bonepiles as it increases the number of items you receive from each Bonepile node. Only one level of Geologist is required to farm Bonepiles efficiently.
