Where to find Wingdrake Hide in Monster Hunter World
The Wingdrake Hide is an item essential to craft the Kadachi Mail which can be crafted after players fell the fearsome Toda Kadachi in the Ancient Forest region at Hunter Rank 4.
As said before this material is virtually right under the player's nose as these enemies can be found reasonably early on. This item can be acquired by slaying Noios at the Ancient Forest in location 5 or in the Wildspire Waste in location 8.
It is highly advised that players pick up the Light Bowgun, Heavy Bowgun, or Bow to fell these winged beasts. You can choose to try and hit them with melee weapons, but it might take a bit longer if you don't have any Flash Pods handy to knock them from the air.
So before you head out upgrade any of these ranged weapons to their Bone variants (the Hunter's Rifle, the Bone Shooter, and the Hunter's Bow) before heading out to farm this crafting material. These weapons are more than enough to take on these small monsters so farming them for materials shouldn't be difficulty at all, even for the earliest of aspiring hunters. Using basic ammunition will be enough if you decide to go the ranged route.
