Unlock Conditions
Unlocks When You First Hunt a Monster

Large Monsters | Unlocked after hunts by progressing through Chapters |
---|---|
Small Monsters | Unlocked by hunting them in the field |
In Monster Hunter Wilds, Optional Quests are unlocked by hunting monsters in the field. However, large monsters are encountered for the first time through Chapter progression, so it's important to advance the Chapters first.
Full Story Walkthrough and GuideIf Optional Quests Don't Appear
Insufficient Story Progression

Some Optional Quests have story progression as a condition, such as being unlocked after Chapter 2. If they don't appear even after defeating monsters, try progressing the story.
Defeat Small Monsters in The Field
Small monsters are often not fought during chapter progression. Therefore, you need to accept other Optional Quests and specifically go hunt small monsters.
What Are Optional Quests?
Quests That Can Be Taken Anytime

Assignments can only be undertaken once, whereas Optional Quests are Quests that can be undertaken any number of times, regardless of success or failure. Therefore, they are suitable for farming to forge strong Equipment.
Can Go to Areas with Specific Weather

When you start an Optional Quest, the weather will switch to the one determined for each Quest. However, be aware that the weather can change over time, and it will revert to the original weather when you return.
