Monster Hunter Wilds

Doshaguma of the Hollow Quest and Rewards

Add to Watchlist

This is a complete guide on the Doshaguma of the Hollow Challenge Quest for Monster Hunter: Wilds. Read on to see the full guide on how to beat Doshaguma in the Arena, how to get A Rank, armor and weapon loadouts, and so much more!

How to Get A Rank

Tips to Get A Rank


Use the Heavy Bowgun as Primary

Best Weapon Set for Solo
Bone Shooter III IconBone Shooter III
▼Set A: Heavy Bowgun▼

If you're aiming for an easy A Rank against the Doshaguma, we recommend using the Heavy Bowgun. This weapon allows you to safely maintain distance while dishing out high damage using Flaming Ammo and Special Ammo in Ignition Mode, making it especially effective against Doshaguma’s mostly short-range attacks.

Heavy Bowgun Weapon Guide

Apply Damage Buffs With Demon Ammo

Before the fight officially begins, shoot Demon Ammo into the the ground, and pass through the powder that disperses to get an Attack Power buff. This will give you enough of an Attack Power boost that lasts for 3 minutes which will be crucial during the early phases of the battle.

Build Up Ignition Mode

The best strategy is to start with Flaming Ammo to charge your Ignition Gauge. Once it's filled, switch to Ignition Mode and unleash Wyvernheart Ignition aimed at its head and forelegs to continuously apply pressure where it's most vulnerable.

Use Spread Ammo in the Second Half

During the latter half of the battle, once your Fire Ammo is depleted, switch to Spread Ammo to keep up the pressure. Since Spread shots are short-ranged and come with significant recoil, avoid firing them in rapid succession.

Instead, position yourself strategically to maintain mobility and ensure you can still guard against incoming attacks when necessary.

Use Evasion Mantle During the Early Stages

The Set A preset includes an Evasion Mantle, which can be used during the early stages of the fight to boost your offensive potential. When activated, it allows you to perform a Perfect Dodge.

If timed correctly, this grants a 1.2x increase to Attack Power for 10 seconds, giving you a strong edge in combat.

Focus Strike During Ground Break Attack

When Doshaguma rears up on its hind legs and slowly advances toward the Hunter, it's a clear sign that it's about to unleash a Ground Break Attack.

During this motion, a wound will appear around its belly allowing you to land a Focus Strike. Hitting this vulnerable point can knock the Monster down, giving you a valuable opening to capitalize on.

How to Use Focus Mode and Focus Strike

Exploit Wounds When Enraged

Exploiting wounds with Focus Strikes is especially effective when Doshaguma becomes enraged, as it can cause the Monster to flinch and interrupt its relentless assault.

Hi! The pendant rewards for this quest were changed last April 15, as detailed on Twitter/X. The Mark of Bravery is now a participation reward, and all hunters who have attained an A rank can now get the Mark of Mastery. We hope this clears it up! https://x.com/monsterhunter/status/1912105873326882924

The quest says Rank A is required for the Bravery Reward, yet your guide is posting that it is available to anyone as long as they participate.
