Eager to capitalize on its current strongest monster, Monster Hunter Wilds<\/strong> just released its first Free Challenge Quest, \u201cThe Shining Storm Rages.\u201d.<\/s> As with the \u201cA Silent Flash\u201d Event Quest<\/a> (which is still live until May 13 at 11:59 pm UTC), players need to be at least Hunter Rank (HR) 50 to fight an Arch-Tempered Rey Dau in the Windward Plains. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Monster<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Much like Time-Based Competition Quests<\/a>, Free Challenge Quests reward lower hunt times (the time it takes to kill or capture a monster). You\u2019ll get an \u201cA\u201d rank for finishing The Shining Storm Rages within 13 minutes, a \u201cB\u201d rank for 20 minutes, and a \u201cC\u201d rank for 50 minutes. Based on the \u201cThe Shining Storm Rages\u201d quest description, players will get an equippable pendant based on their best recorded time after the event ends and the times are tallied.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The \u201cfree\u201d part of \u201cFree Challenge Quest\u201d means that players will be allowed to use their own equipment to complete the hunt, unlike some Challenge Quests that impose specific loadouts. Now that Capcom is punishing players<\/a> who use fraudulent means to shorten their hunt times, perhaps Monster Hunter Wilds\u2019 first Free Challenge Quest will go smoothly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Shining Storm Rages\u201d Free Challenge Quest runs until May 20 at 11:59 pm UTC. Monster Hunter Wilds is out now on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (Steam). <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
