The Monster Hunter Wilds Tongue-Tied Event Quest is now live in Capcom’s latest monster hunting adventure! This limited-time event requires players to go on a challenging hunt with valuable rewards. Hunters must find and defeat a Tempered Chatacabra until March 18, 2025 when the event quest ends. Here’s everything you need to know to complete this quest and maximize your rewards.
Quest Requirements, Availability, and Details

Are you looking for something challenging with huge rewards awaiting you? Unlike regular quests, the Monster Hunter Wilds Tongue-Tied Event Quest is a time-limited one, which adds another layer of difficulty to it. The quest began on March 11 and will end on March 18, so if you’re only about to start now, you better hurry!
Of course, as it’s a high-rank quest, you need to meet the following requirements first so you can access it:
- Reach Hunter Rank (HR) 21 or higher
- Complete the entire Low Rank storyline
- Finish the “Wyvern Sparks and Rose Thorns” main story quest
The Monster Hunter Wilds Tongue-Tied Event Quest takes place in an area already too familiar to experienced Hunters; the Windward Plains. To start the quest, speak with Alma and select the Event Quests tab, where you’ll find Tongue-Tied listed among the available events. Here, you’ll face a Tempered Chatacabra, which is different from other normal Chatacabras you have encountered.
Here’s what you should know before diving in:
- Time Limit: 50 minutes
- Difficulty: High Rank 5-star quest
- Reward: 14,760 Zenny and 198 Guild Points
- Failure Conditions: Time expires or faint 3 times
- Player Limit: Up to 4 players
Preparation Before Hunting and Strategy in Battle

Since you’ll be facing a Tempered monster, you must be properly equipped and prepared. Here are some tips for gears, weapons, and more:
- Gear Recommendation: at least Rarity 6 armor
- Exploit Weaknesses: Ice, Thunder, and Paralysis
- Recommended Weapons: Great Sword, Hammer, Switch Axe, Charge Blade, Hunting Horn, or Bow
- Target Areas: legs, head, and tongue
For the weapons, Artian Weapons excel against Chatacabra. Paralysis builds also work particularly well against Tempered monsters in general. There are also battle strategies that are useful to know when fighting the Tempered Chatacabra in the Monster Hunter Wilds Tongue-Tied Event Quest:
- Tempered monsters have special weak points called Tempered Scars. These are bluish-white wounds that glow blue when you attack them. Target them with Focus Mode to hit these areas consistently.
- When the Tempered Scar glows, use a Focus Strike to destroy it. This will topple the monster and create an opening for big damage.
- Chatacabra can be ambushed, so you should take opportunities to catch it off-guard and be on the advantage.. Also, tire out the Chatacabra with quick, successive hits, or elemental attacks to make it easier to deal with.
Monster Hunter Wilds Tongue-Tied Event Quest Rewards

Completing the Event Quest will give you the following rewards:
- Hard Armor Spheres (guaranteed)
- Advanced Armor Spheres (chance-based)
- Chatacabra materials (Carapace, Hide+, Jaw+, Scale+)
- Glowing Orb – Armor
- Glowing Orb – Sword
- Damaged Weapon Shard
The Armor Spheres are considered the star rewards in this event quest. They are somewhat rare but extremely valuable for endgame armor upgrading, so being able to farm multiple of them is quite a big deal.
Conclusion

If you meet all requirements, you absolutely shouldn’t miss the Monster Hunter Wilds Tongue-Tied Event Quest! Get ready to set out and face tougher monsters and put your hunting skills to the test. You might be taking on the challenge for loot, or simply for the sake of monster hunting itself. Either way, this adventure will be rewarding. MH Wilds event quests are a different kind of fun and thrill, so prioritize it before it ends on March 18!
