Monster Hunter Stories 3 – Regalfin Side Quest Overview

| Quest giver | Dressmaker |
| Location | Broadleaf Basin |
| Region | Azuria |
| Regalfin location | Inside a cave in the southwestern section of the map |
How to Start the Regalfin Side Quest
After completing the tutorial with Thea, head over to the Dressmaker NPC found on the western shoreline of Broadleaf Basin, just north of the Catavan Stand. Speaking to them will unlock the Finding the Regalfin side quests. Once accepted, you will find a new quest marker on your map. This will take you to an island in the southwestern section of Azuria’s Mirror Lake.
How to Find the Regalfin
The Regalfin is actually located inside a cave southwest of the Capital. For me, I found that the best way to get here is by using water monsties like the Plesioth. But you can also get here by air after fast traveling to the Ancient Battleground Catavan Stand.
From the Catavan Stand, head south, land on the island, then walk around to the northwest. Jump into the water to find the cave entrance. Once you find the cave, all you need to do is swim close to the Regalfin. It will notice you and retreat. Return to the Dressmaker to tell them about your findings and complete the quest.
