The first Monster Hunter Wilds event quests let you wear an adorable forest creature as a helmet, which means my headgear is locked in for the next few months

A hunter grins and throws two peace/victory signs while wearing a Mimiphyta helm in Monster Hunter Wilds.

Event quests, limited time hunts that offer special rewards, are a mainstay of Monster Hunter replayability. They're usually available for a week at a time, and completing them can provide materials for event-exclusive armor sets, farmable upgrade materials, and more. Capcom just rolled out the first event quests for Monster Hunter Wilds, and as far as I'm concerned, one of the rewards is a definite must-get: materials for crafting a Mimiphyta helmet, which lets you run around with a precious woodland creature clinging to your scalp.

Mimiphyta are endemic life that you might've encountered in the Scarlet Forest, where—depending on the season—they'll be huddling near trees to hide from predators by imitating fungi or standing on their tails to mimic flowers with their big, floppy ears so they can lure prey insects. They're adorable. And now they're adorable headwear.
