How to start Mizutsune quest in Monster Hunter Wilds
Mizutsune is the one monster that turns the battlefield into a soap-covered slip-and-slide of doom inMonster Hunter Wilds.
You’re here because you want to take down this bubbly menace, but let’s be real – Mizutsune isn’t your average punching bag. It dances, it dodges, and if you’re not careful, it will humiliate you in front of your entire hunting party.

But don’t worry – I’m here to make sure that doesn’t happen. Not because I’m particularly great, but because I’ve already danced with this monster and made a fool of myself just so you don’t have to.
How to unlock Mizutsune quest
First things first: you need to unlock the quest. Mizutsune was added in Title Update 1, so make sure you’ve installed that before heading out. Once you’re good to go, here’s what you need to do:
If Kanya won’t give you the quest, you might need to complete “Life, In Microcosm” first. Just catch a fish at her location to clear this up.

If you’re feeling brave (or reckless), you can take on an even harder version at Hunter Rank 41. This time, you’ll need to talk to Alma instead.
Mizutsune weaknesses & strategy
Mizutsune is weak toThunder, Dragon, and Ice. She’s highly resistant to water and fire, so avoid those two.
Herweak spot is her head, where she’ll particularly take damage againstblundering and slashingweapons, like the Hammer and the Sword. My Insect Glaive never stood a chance here.
