Yes it is! Please treat Arena and Challenge quests the same as others.

Because there are 3 of us verifying runs right now. Verifier applications will open soon. Reminder this is a volunteer role we fill. Many of us have fulltime jobs and other commitments that come first. I ask for your patience as we get the resources and staff needed.

FYI I've discovered the News tab. I'll be adding all Leaderboard changes and updates there. Additionally, all site leaderboard rules and the guidelines doc will be updated alongside the News tab.

We usually try to uodate it within a day or two. The new quests should be uo today at some point.

MHSR Leaderboard Ruleset Change

• The rule regarding Piping-Hot Meal has been updated to the following: Activation of the Food Skill Piping-Hot Meal is prohibited. The submission is valid if the Food Skill Piping-Hot Meal does not activate during the quest.

New changes are highlighted yellow in the text of the rules. Changes are captured in the Changelog at the bottom of the document.

Additionally, the IL Quest Names are being updated to include the name of the Target Monster for each quest to assist in identification when viewing and submitting speedruns. Thank you to Kibo for this recommendation! IL Quest Names will now read as the following:

• A Futile Fight (Chatacabra)

Given the random nature of Investigations, they will not be tracked on the leaderboard. Investigations ate too variable to moderate in any fashion that could be comparable between individual runners.

Right now, Optional and Event quests are listed on the leaderboard. Arena and Challenge quests will be added when released in TU1. To view the other quest lists, click the drop down menu that begins with "Event Quests."

Yes its supposed to be, I forgot to include it lol. I'll add it when I have the chance. But if you don't know what it is, then trust me you won't accidentally do it lol

MHSR Leaderboard Ruleset Change

• 2025-Mar 28: Use of Support Hunters in Fullgame Categories is now permitted.

New changes are highlighted yellow in the text of the rules. Changes are captured in the Changelog at the bottom of the document.

We had this conversation last night! Those quests you're allowed to have the support hunter. I'll be updating the rules for Fullgame to start "Calling Support Hunters is prohibited." We'll clarify that section of the rules.

EMBARGO LIFTED! GO VIEW THE NEW LEADERBOARD RULES FORUM POST!

Wilds Submissions are now OPEN!

Both Fullgame and IL leaderboards have been updated to include the new rules, restrictions, and verifications methods. All the rules have been compiled in the MHSR Monster Hunter Wilds Leaderboard Rulesets & Submission Guidelines document (click the link to view). This will be a one-stop document for the MHSR Wilds Leaderboards. As changes are made, they'll be updated here!

For now, here's a little summary on the leaderboards and categories!

Fullgame Categories! • Any% - New Game to Zoh Shia! • HR Arkveld - New Game to HR40 Arkveld (in testing)

IL Rulesets! • Freestyle - aka FS, unrestricted speedrunning • Restricted Rules - aka RR, our version of TAwiki rules, Hunter vs Monster while allowing new mechanics and tools! (Huge thank you to TalonLumini for drafting these!)

All the rules are included on the leaderboards too! Just click "Show Rules" to view all rules applicable to the category you're viewing!

Make sure to review all the rules before submitting runs! Thank you all again for your patience and understanding during this time! I'm looking forward to seeing what you all achieve in this game! You can ask any questions on this thread or in the MHSR Discord server (link at top of webpage).

We do have some items in progress as well! Please take a look!

• Fullgame Multiplayer Categories
• IL Gauntlets - Series of ILs done in succession in a RTA-style completion

Hey Glitsxo! Definitely a topic I can help out with, but reach out to me on Discord DMs. Would be much easier to talk about it there.

@JalBagel on Discord

You cab also find me in the MHSR Discord.

Scroll up to the top of the website. There's a link that sayd "Discord".

We will be creating IL rulesets including Freestyle and a "TA Wiki rules-like" ruleset. Though it wont be called the same on SRC, it will be the same ruleset.

Please read my post above.

That likely wont be fixed. It was the case in World and Rise. But we will make an attempt to set restrictions to framerate the best we can.

Can you provide a recording of your testing?

It's not "against PC players" but we're providing tools for PC players so everyone can play at the same level. Real Time comparison on PC creates a distinct advantage for runners with better PCs. Some loads are faster than others. Compound those few seconds multiple times over a run and the difference is minutes. As a PC player myself, we need some sort of standardization on PC since there is no standardization on the system running the game.

Because PC runs will default to IGT. Console will remain RTA until we design an autospliter for it.

Its worth noting too that the split is entirely for Fullgame runs. IL leaderboards should be able to be hosted together since the timing method is the same. We're still working on layouts for the leaderboards.

Luckily this is my fourth MH release (Iceborne, Rise, Sunbreak before this) so we kinda expect the game to... not work on release lol Plus it gives us time to enjoy the game instead of immediately speedrun it to make rules.

Thanks for the insight. The Chain double hitbox I JUST experienced myself (GP then got hit anyways :) ) We'll see if this stuff gets fixed in the coming weeks.

Hello PeachTea! The leaderboards are presently under an embargo until March 28th. Any changes that release then will be taken into consideration. I appreciate your desire to keep the leaderboard fair and we take that into consideration. For the exploits/bugs you mentioned, can you please provide proof or evidence of them? I'm doing research on my side but can only do so much. So please provide anything and everything you've discovered or research.

FYI, PC and Console will experience a split leaderboard. At this time, we've been testing an autosplitter and load remover thats available for all runners to test right now. However, it's only available for PC runs. This coupled with the performance differences between PC and Console was enough to separate the leaderboards. But your concerns are still valid and noted. We just need the help researching this more.

Hey there! If you saw the other post on the discussion board, there is a 1 month embargo on the leaderboard to allow the moderation team time to enjoy and play the game as well as test speedrun category rule sets and verification methods, and populate the leaderboard with all RTA and IL information (which includes a list of all quests in the game).

The embargo will lift on March 28th; at that time the leaderboard will be updated and open for submission! We're a small team (currently 4 strong) with other commitments, so this process does take time! We appreciate your patience.

In the meantime, RTA and IL rulesets have not been established yet. Feel free to join the discord and join the conversation! We would love new input on the new speedrun categories.
