Quest Name: The Festival of Fear

Client: Guild Master

Objective: Repel Jhen Mohran

Quote: Our city comes under attack from a huge dragon every few years, and the folks are getting fed up! So we’re throwing a festival to lure hunters to kill the thing. You only need to wager your life to eater.

Quest Name: Rumble in the Great Desert

Client:Guildmaster

Objective: Slay or repel the Jhen Mohran

Quote: It comes! Loc Lac’s infamous “great drake of the peaks” is upon us! Hunters: team with the Dragonship fleet to attempt the slaying. Those confident of their skills are invited to this hunt of hunts!

Alright, you got your Jhen Mohran parts, you bought your loads of items from the shops… But there’s still lots to do for other Event Quests. Most of which give you awesome rewards, like tickets to build exclusive weapons, armors, and more.

Egg runs… Oh, how we all love egg runs. So, if you’re planning on doing this quest, do it for the money. Make sure you have the transport skill, make sure to get the Felyne Lander skill from eating, and be aware that mommy does not like it when you steal her eggs. There’s a Rathian, and she will NOT be happy when you take her eggs. In fact, she will hunt you and your friends down, turning the tables.

Quest: Poached Wyvern Eggs

Client: The Lady Gourmet

Objective: Deliver 9 Wyvern Eggs

Quote: Why, hellooo! I mean to hold a dinner party, but I’ve discovered that the most dreadful news — I don’t have enough eggs for my recipe! I simply mustn’t disappoint my guests, so please save this supper!

Hot Deal! This quest is worth all the heat, since you get tickets to create a one of a kind weapon, the Sinister Saints switch axe. Kill two high rank Agnaktors, and you’ll be good to go. Well, you may have to do this quest a couple of times, since you need five total tickets to build the weapon.

Quest: Hot Deal

Client: Shady Merchant

Objective: Hunt 2 Agnaktor

Quote: A couple of Agnaktor are meltin’ my profits on the Volcano, see? Deal with em’ and I’ll give you a weapon recipe I… acquired. They say this armament can bring wealth, or a mysterious death…

Diablos. Uragaan. Tiny arena. Bring flash bombs. You’re going to need ’em. Now, the good news is that the rewards let you build one heck of a fire lance. You’ll need 11 tickets total to build and then upgrade the weapon, so stock up on them flashbugs.
