Monster Hunter Wilds

Are Mods Bannable?

Add to Watchlist

The usage of mods in Monster Hunter Wilds is bannable as stated by Capcom. Learn more about mods and if they are bannable here.

Are Mods Bannable?

Yes, Using Mods Can Lead to a Ban

Capcom has stated in a post on their official X account that players who are found cheating or engaging in unauthorized modifications will be subject to penalties, including account suspension.

Modded Quests Will be Filtered

In the same post on X mentioned above, Capcom will also improve the filtering of modded quests, ensuring they no longer appear at the Quest Counter. If such quests do show up at the Quest Counter, players will receive an error if they accept the quest.

Modded quests are illegitimate or tampered quests are that have been altered using third-party software to modify parameters such as rewards, targets, time limit, and the like.

Normal Quest Parameters

Parameters Normal Conditions
Target Monsters 1 ~ 2 monsters
(Quests cannot have 3 or more monsters.)
Reward Limits One Monster: Max of 5
Two Monsters: Max of 10
(Quests cannot have more than 6 bonus rewards for 1 target monster.)
Item Limit per Slot Max of 4
(Quests cannot have more than 5 bonus rewards per slot.)
Artian Materials Only obtainable through tempered monster quests or Zoh Shia quests.
Reward Money 11,160 ~ 67,320 Zenny
Time Limit 25 ~ 50 minutes
(in 5 minute intervals)
Failure Conditions Fainting a max of 3 times.

The table above shows the normal quest parameters. Quests that meet the conditions above are safe to accept.

Quest List

Use of Unreleased Content Can Result in a Ban

In a separate X post, Capcom also confirmed that using unreleased content by using mods is also considered cheating, and can result in a ban.

Players are encouraged to report cheating and other disruptive behavior through their Hunter Profile by selecting Report.

How to Report Players

Steps to Report a Player
1
