Welcome to NGB and our Monster Hunter Stories guide on the I Want to Paint subquest. In this guide, we’ll go over all of the subquest details along with how you can complete the subquest. Happy subquesting Rider!
I Want to Paint Subquest Details
The I Want to Paint subquest can be started by interacting with the Quest Board in Hakum Village, choosing Normal, and then selecting it from the list. The client for this request is asking the Rider to collect a trio of Paintberries for him as he has a bad hip and can’t do it himself!
How to Complete the I Want to Paint Subquest
To collect the Paintberries needed for the subquest, exit the village to reach the Pondry Hills. Once you’re there, explore the area in search of the red apple-like fruit in the image below. That is the Paintberry that you are in search of.
When you find one, you will simply need to interact with it to collect the berry. Once you have 3 in your possession, head back to the village and interact with the Quest Board to turn in the subquest and receive your reward!
A quick and easy way to collect the Paintberries you need would be to head to the Pondry Caves northwest of the lake in the northern part of the Pondry Hills. Along the path leading up to the lake will be a Paintberry. Collect it then head up and enter the cave. If you exit the cave, that Paintberry will respawn allowing you to collect it again. Do this one more time to get all three that you need.
Rewards
Upon completing the I Want to Paint subquest, you’ll be rewarded with a pair of Herbs and 100 Zenny.
