Summary
- Monster Hunter Wilds players can use poison ammo to complete hunt quests in a few seconds, though the setup requires patience.
- The game has faced criticism for being too easy, prompting Capcom to add tougher monsters in future updates.
Monster Hunter Wilds players have figured out a way to complete hunt quests in mere seconds by exploiting one of the game's features. Since its launch, Monster Hunter Wilds has reached important milestones and gained huge popularity, despite receiving some criticism over its difficulty.
The latest entry in the Monster Hunter franchise has proven quite successful among fans. In its first three days, Monster Hunter Wilds sold eight million copies worldwide, becoming the fastest-selling game in Capcom's history. One big part of the fun in Monster Hunter Wilds is coming up with creative ways to beat hunt quests in the shortest time possible. These strategies usually involve carefully choosing the right armor and weapons, but some players have now deciphered a more unorthodox way to beat up monsters in record time.
Monster Hunter Wilds Players Want One Major Feature Added to Weapons
Monster Hunter Wilds fans express dissatisfaction with the current state of weapons in the popular action RPG and ask Capcom to add one major feature.
In Monster Hunter Wilds, monsters can take damage from other beings and things surrounding them, without players being involved. Fortunately, this type of damage doesn't trigger capture quests, and players aren't forced to start a quest while exploring the map. However, it also means that monsters can take damage over time from poison without starting a capture quest. With this feature in mind, players have discovered that using poison ammo in Monster Hunter Wilds lets them complete hunt quests in no time. As reported by VG247, MHW players can keep on shooting poison ammo at a monster until its HP is exceedingly low. Then, players can attack the creature with another weapon to trigger the hunt quest and end it with a few blows. As a result, the quest time completion is reduced to mere seconds. It is worth noting that the trick only works if players don't attack the monster with anything other than poison ammo, otherwise the hunt quest will be triggered.
Monster Hunter Wilds Players Use Poison Ammo to Complete Hunt Quests in Seconds
YouTube user Hozumi put the trick to the test and managed to complete a Chatacabra capture quest in 1.53 seconds. Their method involved poisoning the monster for around nine minutes before using a trap to trigger the capture quest. Because poison ammo takes a while to take effect, the trick requires patience, but players can have the satisfaction of breaking their own capture quest record time. Of course, fans might find this method amusing, but if enough players exploit it to their own benefit, developers might address it in future updates.
While this poison ammo trick is mostly for entertainment, Monster Hunter Wilds has received criticism over the difficulty of its quests. Some players have deemed the game to be too easy compared to previous entries. Capcom has confirmed that Monster Hunter Wilds will add a tougher monster in a free update in early April. Only time will tell if the challenge lives up to fans' expectations.
