Monster Hunter Wilds - Barrel Bowling Guide

Barrel Bowling is a new minigame that is available with the release of Title Update 1 in Monster Hunter Wilds. Read on to learn more about this upcoming bowling minigame and the rewards you can get!

Barrel Bowling Overview

Throw Barrels and Score Points

Barrel Bowling

Barrel Bowling allows you to play bowling with the use of barrels. During the minigame, you will be throwing a barrel bomb and aim to hit targets which are placed across a downward slope.

There are three types of targets to hit during the game, with each one giving different points. You will have two attempts per game, and your score will be added up at the end with a corresponding ranking depending on your score.

Use Barrel Bowling Vouchers

To play Barrel Bowling, you need to use Barrel Bowling Vouchers, which you can get via the daily Login Bonus.

Barrel Bowling Tips

Practice Before Participating

Practice the Barrel Bowling event by picking up the barrels straight away, and not talking to any of the palicos! This way, you can throw as many barrels as you want to get a feel of the event!

Aim for the Center

Barrel Bombing Point System

Try to aim for the center when you throw the barrel in order to get as many points! This method ensure that even if your barrel strays from original path, its explosion will hit the other targets.

Do note that the course changes daily, which means that your course may look entirely different compared to photo above.

Need to Hit the +200 for A Rank

If you are aiming for the highest possible rank, you must hit the farthest target in the event as it gives +200 points when hit!

Getting A rank should be your goal as it gives you eight rewards.

Throw From the 3rd Arrow

Third Arrow
You'll have a higher chance of getting more points if you throw the barrel from either the 3rd arrow from the left or the 3rd arrow from the right and aim it straight!

This is due to the fact that the path beyond the middle arrrow is rough and rocky, which could potentially make your barrel highly unstable.

Barrel Bowling Course Variations

All Course Variations

The Barrel Bowling's course changes daily. Below are all of the known variations so far!

B 300- 499 5 pcs
C 300 or less 3 pcs
All Possible Rewards

While the items you'll get are random, the amount you'll get will depend on your rank. With this in mind be sure to keep aiming for the A rank, which needs atleast 500 pts, to get as many rewards as possible!

Barrel Bowling Pendant and Strap

When you play Barrel Bowling for the first time, you will be rewarded with the Barrel Bowling Strap. You will get another reward once you get your very first A rank, which is the Barrel Bowling Trophy Pendant!

Be sure to talk to Rolie at the reception desk to claim them. Once you do, feel free to equip them to your weapon or Seikret.
