Welcome to NGB and our Monster Hunter Stories guide on the Honey Guard subquest. In this guide, we’ll go over all of the subquest details along with how you can complete the subquest. Happy subquesting Rider!
The Honey Guard Subquest Details
The Honey Guard 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 task talks about how much he loves freshly gathered natural honey, but every time he tries to go collect some, an Arzuros attacks him. Thus he’s submitted a subquest to have the bear dealt with! Please note that this subquest won’t become available until after you complete the Cheval and Lilia story quest.
How to Complete the Honey Guard Subquest
To pursue this subquest, exit the village to reach the Pondry Hills and follow the white road north through the area. As you get close to the lake, keep your eye on the right side of the path to spot an Arzuros wandering around. Run into the guardian of honey to engage it in battle.
For this fight, the Arzuros will use power attacks so make sure to counter that with some speed attacks of your own. Your starting Monstie the Velocidrome is a good pick here or any other speed Monsties you have have. Keep an eye out for when the bear starts eating honey. This will give it a buff that regenerates its health for the next few turns. Outside of that, it shouldn’t be too hard to take down. Once you defeat the monster, return to the Quest Board in the village to turn it in and receive your reward!
Rewards
Upon completing the Honey Guard subquest, you’ll be rewarded with 3 Honey and 600 Zenny.
