Capcom has already launched its first of many seasonal events forMonster Hunter Wilds, celebrating the game’s achievements with a variety of brand-new cosmetics to unlock during your regular hunts. From April 22 to May 6, you can access every event quest released so far on top of several exciting new additions to the roster during the Festival of Accord: Blossomdance celebration. AlthoughWildsisn’t offering any new monsters or optional quests in the new update, the real star of the show is the craftable gear and variety of cosmetic content available.
On top of the new additions that arrived with the Blossomdance update,Wildshas released the first wave of rewards for the limitedarena quests after the changeto leaderboard rewards, which can be claimed at the Support Desk. After launchingMonster Hunter Wilds, the first thing you’ll notice after visiting the gathering hub is the massive seasonal makeover, with pink cherry blossoms being the primary design choice. Alongside limited-time meals and an upbeat song for the Diva to sing,it won’t be hard to get into the spirit of celebration while you farm outWilds' new crafting vouchers.
Speeding Up The Process With Targeted Equipment
Unlike most of the standard event gear inMonster Hunter Wilds, you may’t simply obtain all the new limited equipment by farming any specific event quests. To obtain the various vouchers required to make each Blossomdance set,you have to complete daily logins, limited bounties, and farm certain event quests.With the amount offlower-themed gear arrivingand several new vouchers blending together, it can be hard to keep track of each material.
To speed up the process, I would highly recommend spending any Blossomdance tickets you earn to craft at least a four-piece set of Sakuratide armor at the smithee. While the armor looks great on its own,for every two pieces of Sakuratide armor equipped, you will receive additional event-themed rewards, ranging from Blossom Barrel Bombs to even more vouchers. It’s important to note, however, that this effect only applies during the event, with only the additional carving skill persisting in the future.
The Tempered Wu Xu in the “That Won’t Work On Me!” event quest is guaranteed to be a Gold Crown size, adding the benefit of filling out your hunting log on top of the standard crafting rewards.
The first of the other two new materials comes in the form of Blossom vouchers, which, despite the confusingly similar design and icon, are only obtained through the “Daughters of Carabosse” event quest. AS the quest involves slaying two High Rank Lala Barina at once,having some additional paralysis-resistant gear offers a significant advantage. The final voucher to farm is the Blossomdance Catalog, obtained from slaying the Tempered Wu Xu in the event quest “That Won’t Work On Me!”.
Every New Item From Monster Hunter Wilds' First Festival
Plenty Of Seasonal Armor To Satisfy Your Fashion Needs
The main draw ofMonster Hunter Wilds' limited event is undoubtedly its offerings of craftable armor sets, offering both style and useful skills of their own. In total,you may unlock and craft two full armor sets for your hunter and two full armor sets for your palico, alongside a butterfly-themed paralysis weapon. Similar to the standard gear inWilds, you do need to collect at least one of the required materials to see the recipes at the smithee.

While the number of additions and resources required might seem overwhelming at first,simply logging in and completing your limited bounties for a few days should easily let you obtain all the limited materials you’ll need for the event. Combined with the bonuses provided by the Sakuratide armor, farming shorter quests to complete your daily bounties of hunting in various regions or types of monsters can speed the process along considerably.
On top of the vouchers, each of the new gear also requires other materials like rare minerals or monster parts to craft, which is a great way to spend time farming in between your daily quests. While the armor skills don’t shake upMonster Hunter Wildsgear meta, the ability to use them as layered armor is incentive enough for me.
Every Paid Cosmetic Arriving With Wilds' Festival Update
Additional Cosmetics For Hunters With Zenny To Spare
On top of all the free content coming toMonster Hunter Wildswith its brand-new Blossomdance festival event,there are also several new paid cosmetics to go alongside your new spring-themed outfits.

WithMonster Hunter Wildsgathering hub being decorated from top to bottom with the new theme, you’re likely to see the cosmetics in-game from players thanks toWilds'100-player lobbies.
While you should already be checking intoMonster Hunter Wildsfor daily login bonuses at the very least,simply playing and claiming your daily at least once during the event will unlock several free items, as described on theMonster HunterX account. Although most of these items will be immediately available to you through their respective menus, the limited pendant is obtained through the in-game mail system.
