This is a guide for Hope of the Ancients, a 10-star event quest featuring Zoh Shia in Monster Hunter Wilds. See how to unlock Hope of the Ancients, how to beat 10-star Zoh Shia, and the rewards for completing the quest here.
Hope of the Ancients is a permanent event that started on March 3, 2026. This is a 10-star quest where players need to hunt a Zoh Shia.
This quest is accessible to hunters who have reached at least HR 100.

From the Quest Counter, select the Event Quests Tab and select Hope of the Ancients to accept this quest. You can do this by speaking to Alma or opening the Quest Counter from the Tent.
The 10-star version of Zoh Shia has the same attack patterns as the regular version with no new attacks. The only differences are that it deals significantly more damage, it is more aggressive, and it has a higher health pool.
The fire attacks from 10-star Zoh Shia are quite deadly, so make sure you have high Fire Resistance. Having 20 Fire Resistance is recommended as it grants immunity to Fireblight.

The Specialty Meal Buffs at the Grand Hub grant +10 to all Elemental Resistances and other useful bonuses, including the Insurance Meal skill.
The Sild specialty meal is not recommended as it provides bonuses for capturing, and Zoh Shia cannot be captured.
Use slinger ammo to destroy the Wylk Crystals and create a safe area. The attack can also be avoided by fast traveling to camp or hugging the southern edge of the arena.
After the main explosion, Zoh Shia can randomly use a smaller version of the attack for the remainder of the hunt. You can stay safe from this smaller blast by positioning yourself right behind its tail.
Pull back immediately when you see Zoh Shia standing up, as it will start to wind up for its flamethrower attack.
Look out for Zoh Shia's fireballs as they have a deceptively large AoE, deal incredibly high damage, and hit surprisingly fast.
These are quite dangerous especially if they are used as a follow-up after you get knocked down. Make sure to wait for a while before standing up after being blown away
Remember to use the shrine fragments hanging above the arena to knock down Zoh Shia and create an opening to attack safely.
