Capcom announced on social media that it will change the Monster Hunter Wilds Challenge Quest reward requirements, which involved leaderboard ranking initially, to ensure everyone will be able to fairly and rightfully collect any items from Arena Quests. It announced investigations into current leaderboard placements for the āDoshaguma of the Hollowā quest available in the game until April 17, 2025. Said quest is also experiencing condition changes to ensure deserving people get the items even if there was cheating.
The announcement doesnāt mean Expedition Record Board leaderboards wonāt disappear, but that Monster Hunter Wilds Challenge Quests wonāt require you to get a ranking in a certain position to earn the reward. There will still be a time requirement tied to certain items. In the case of āDoshaguma of the Hollow,ā this change affects two rewards. Everyone gets the Doshaguma: Mark of Contest pendant just for participating. The Doshaguma: Mark of Bravery pendant is now also tied to participation, when previously it required a Rank A completion time. The major change involves the Doshaguma: Mark of Mastery pendant. That previously required someone to be in the top 10,000 players who completed the Challenge Quest. Now, you just need a Rank A time to get it.
Hereās the infographic that shows all the pendants.

As for the cheating investigation, Capcom confirmed it is investigating the rankings for this Monster Hunter Wilds Challenge Quest. It will spend one to two weeks reviewing the final ranking results. It will then send out rewards after that. People who exploited the system wonāt get the rewards. In addition, Capcom noted people who used glitches or cheated will be excluded from the ranking, and those who actually did cheat in some way could be either suspended or banned.
Monster Hunter Wilds is available on the PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC. The āDoshaguma of the Hollowā Challenge Quest runs until April 17, 2025.
