Challenge Quest MHW guide

For hunters looking to challenge themselves solo or with friends, Monster Hunter World offers challenge quests for those seeking competition and reward. These events change weekly and have requirements for the equipment you use and the time you take to complete them. Keep reading the Nerds and Scoundrels Challenge Quest MHW guide to get the scoop!

What is a Challenge Quest in MHW?

There are two types of event quests in Monster Hunter World: Arena Quests and Challenge Quests. Challenge quests are similar to Arena Quests, but they appear less frequently. The Challenge Quests available change each week; you can see the current and upcoming challenges below.

Each Challenge Quest has to be completed with one of the five pre-set equipment packs. Your record for completion time for a given weapon is recorded and ranked globally. The quests involve slaying a specific monster, and like Arena Quests the rewards involve rare coins. However, certain Challenge Quests can also reward you with items used to craft useful equipment like rare armor sets.

It’s important to note that both Arena Quests and Challenge Quests allow a maximum of two people. It’s a good idea to get cooperative help when possible, as each challenge is scaled as for multiple players. Some MHW Challenge Quests may be difficult for a single player to complete.
