What are Quests?

Quests Lets You Hunt Monsters and Give Rewards

Talk to Alma Monster Hunter Wilds
In Monster Hunter Wilds, quests determine what monster you will hunt and the rewards you will get upon successfully completing certain objectives.

There are two ways to start a quest; you can either talk to Alma, the Quest Handler, or attack monsters out in the open, which will automatically trigger a hunt quest. You can opt to take on these quest solo or with other hunters through the multiplayer lobbies or firing an SOS Flare.

How to Start Quests

There are 4 Different Quest Objectives




Hunting

Monster Hunter Wilds - Hunting
Hunting quests require the hunter to kill one or more targets in order to complete the quest. Other targets may appear in the quest, but they can be safely ignored as only the designated target is needed to complete the quest.

Hunters are often tasked with hunting large monsters, but they may also be tasked with hunting multiple smaller monsters. Monsters in Hunting quests can either be killed or captured.

List of Monsters

Slaying

Monster Hunter Wilds - Slaying

In this type of optional quest, targets must be eliminated to fulfill the quest conditions. Capturing the target will result in mission failure, so Hunters should strictly stick to killing the target.

Monsters that normally cannot be captured are assigned as Slaying Quests, such as Zoh Shia or Uth Duna.

Capturing

Monster Hunter Wilds - Capturing
Monster targets must only be captured to fulfill the quest condition. Killing targets does not count, so make sure you have enough traps and tranq bombs to successfully capture the designated monster target.

How to Capture Monsters

Repelling

Monster Hunter Wilds - Repelling

Hunters must do enough damage to the target monster to complete this type of quest. It's not necessary to kill the monster outright, and the quest condition is considered fulfilled once the monster reaches the required damage threshold.

Repel missions are currently tied to Assignment Quests as part of the main storyline.
