How to unlock Murtabak as a material gatherer – Monster Hunter Wilds

Murtabak is one of the four Material Retrieval vendors in Monster Hunter Wilds. While you might have access to the other three early on, it can take a bit of time to unlock Murtabak (or even find him on the map).

How to unlock Murtabak as a gatherer

In the Windward Plains, you’ll gain access to collecting Murtabak as a resource after finishing the Kunafa, Windsong Village series of quests. It seems there are at least three tasks given by the residents of Kunafa that need to be completed first.

  • Continuing Conflict (HR5 Optional Quest)
  • A Leviathan’s Temper (HR5 Optional Quest)
  • Beware the Gypceros (Side Mission)

It wasn’t until I completed all three quests (finishing with Beware the Gypceros) that Murtabak unlocked as a vendor for me. However, I had also completed all other Optional Quests and reached Hunter Rank 66.

Once you do manage to get Murtabak as a Material Retrieval vendor, you can ask him to go out and collect a variety of different supplies for you:

  • Herb
  • Honey
  • Thunderbug Capacitor
  • Blue Mushroom
  • Sleep Herb
  • Fire Herb
  • Dragonfell Berry
  • Adamant Seed
  • Nitroshroom
  • Blastnut

There are also reports that Murtabak can return with Sinister Cloth. However, I have yet to receive any from him so I can’t personally confirm this as a viable method to acquire the material.

Where to fund Murtabak

Murtabak is found in Kunafa, Windsong Village in the Windward Plains. Sometimes you will need to travel to the village to find him even if his quest marker does not appear on the map. When you get to the village, if you cannot find him or locate his marker, you should travel to another locale (like the Scarlet Forest) and then travel back.

After you complete all of the Kunafa quests and Murtabak unlocks as a vendor, you’ll be able to request some important crafting items. Remember to use Nata to save time going from vendor to vendor to collect your stuff. Find more helpful information over on our Monster Hunter Wilds page.
