Welcome to NGB and our Monster Hunter Stories guide on the Mellow Mushroom subquest. In this guide, we’ll go over all of the subquest details along with how you can complete the subquest. Happy subquesting Rider!
Mellow Mushroom Subquest Details
The Mellow Mushroom subquest can be started by speaking with the Quiet Lad to the left of your house in Hakum Village. He’ll ask you about Unique Mushrooms that only grow in Pondry Hills mentioning their special fragrance and the request that you bring him one because his aunt really likes them. In order for this subquest to appear, you’ll need to have completed the A Spoon Full of Sugar subquest.
How to Complete the Mellow Mushroom Subquest
To track down the Unique Mushroom, exit the village to reach Pondry Hills. You’ll then want to scour the area looking for blue and orange mushrooms to collect. They are RNG-based, so eventually you should get a random Unique Mushroom. It is worth noting that we consistently found them from gathering blue mushrooms.
If you are having trouble finding one, you can travel to Mt. Pondry Caves on the northwest side of the Pondry Hills. Across from the entrance to the cave is a rock with monster footprints on it. You can use that in tandem with a Monstie that has the Jump monster skill to jump across the gap to an island. On it, you’ll find a blue mushroom. You can then enter and exit the cave causing the mushroom to respawn. Do this to quickly farm for the Unique Mushroom. Once you have the item, return to the Quiet Lad and deliver the mushroom to complete the subquest.
Rewards
Upon completing the Mellow Mushroom subquest, you’ll be rewarded with a Vital Essence and 200 Zenny.
