The Base Wars secret quest in The Hunt 20 is one of the more complicated challenges you can find during the event. Unlike a normal badge quest, this one requires you to prepare a specific loadout, enter a special area, work with a full team, and solve several puzzles before reaching the final fight.
The quest has also received updates, so some parts of the process can change over time. In particular, the required loadout is now tied to the statue found inside the cave. Make sure to follow what the statue shows instead of relying only on an older loadout list.
Match the Statue’s Exact Loadout
Before starting the secret quest, head to the Arsenal menu in the top-left corner after spawning into Base Wars. Go to the Infantry Weapons section and prepare your equipment based on the statue inside the cave.
The important part is that your loadout needs to match the setup shown by the statue. This can include your primary weapon, secondary weapon, and suit. Since the quest has received changes, check the statue carefully before deploying. The general process is:
- Open Arsenal.
- Go to Infantry Weapons.
- Check the classic weapon options.
- Equip the weapons shown by the statue.
- Open the Suit section.
- Select the matching classic suit.
- Double-check the complete loadout.
- Reset your character if needed so the equipment properly applies.
- Deploy after everything matches.
Do not assume that an older guide’s exact weapon combination will still work. The statue is the better reference for the current version of the quest.
Find the Secret Cave Area
After preparing your character, deploy into the main Base Wars map and take one of the available vehicles. The specific vehicle does not matter, so simply choose one that helps you travel quickly.
Make your way toward the mountain located beside the cave. There is a statue in this area connected to the Hunt secret. If you have the correct setup, the statue should open the way to the special quest area.
Once the entrance activates, you will be taken to a separate loading area where you can enter the special Base Wars Hunt challenge.
How to Enter the Hunt Quest
The special quest area uses its own lobby system. Joining can sometimes be unreliable, so you may need to try several times before successfully entering a match.
If the lobby browser is available, joining an existing lobby may work better than creating your own. Scroll through the available lobbies and try joining one until you successfully load into the quest.
The exact lobby behavior can change after updates, so do not be surprised if the process is different from older versions of the event.
You Need a Full Team
Once you successfully enter the quest, you need enough players to complete the different mechanics. The challenge is designed around multiple players taking different responsibilities throughout the puzzle sections.
The roles can include abilities such as:
- Moving or pushing blocks.
- Blocking fire hazards.
- Using a shield to protect teammates.
- Handling specific puzzle mechanics.
- Completing objectives that require another player’s ability.
Some versions of the quest may allow players to select their role directly inside the challenge. If that option is available in your current version, use it to coordinate the abilities your team needs.
Because the event has been updated, the exact role-selection system can change. Check the quest interface when you enter instead of assuming every player receives the same role automatically.
Communicate With Your Team
Communication is one of the biggest parts of this Base Wars secret quest. Each player may have a different ability, meaning one person often cannot complete a puzzle without help from another teammate.
If you are playing with random players, use the in-game chat to explain what needs to happen. Keep your instructions short and clear so everyone understands their part.
For example, you can tell a teammate when to:
- Push a block.
- Activate a switch.
- Stand in a specific location.
- Use the shield.
- Block a fire hazard.
- Move to another puzzle area.
- Wait for another player before activating something.
Playing with friends can make coordination easier, but depending on the current Base Wars server system, joining the same private or custom lobby may not always work as expected.
Complete the Puzzle Sections
After your team enters the main challenge area, you will need to work through several puzzle sections. These challenges use the different abilities assigned to the players, so you need to cooperate instead of simply rushing through the map.
The puzzles can involve moving objects, surviving hazards, activating mechanisms, and positioning players correctly. Some sections may require two or more players to work together at the same time.
There is no single shortcut that works for every puzzle. Pay attention to what each area is asking you to do, then use the appropriate player’s ability to progress.
If something does not work on the first attempt, try changing the order of your actions. Trial and error can be part of the process, especially when playing with people you have never met before.
Reach the Final Boss
After completing the required puzzle areas, your team will eventually reach the final boss encounter. This is the last major obstacle before you can finish the Hunt secret.
Work together and focus on defeating the boss rather than splitting up. The abilities used during the puzzle sections can also be important for surviving or progressing through the final encounter, depending on the current version of the quest.
Once the boss has been defeated and the quest is successfully completed, the Hunt challenge should register as finished.
How to Get the Base Wars Secret Badge
The badge is awarded after successfully completing the secret quest. This means you need to go through the entire process rather than simply finding the statue or entering the hidden area.
The basic progression is:
- Match your equipment to the statue’s current loadout.
- Enter the secret area near the cave.
- Join a suitable quest lobby.
- Get enough players for the challenge.
- Select or receive the required roles.
- Use each player’s abilities correctly.
- Complete the puzzle sections.
- Defeat the final boss.
- Finish the quest.
- Receive the Base Wars Hunt badge.
After obtaining the badge, check your Roblox badges or the relevant Hunt 20 progress screen to make sure the completion has registered.
Base Wars Secret Quest Tips
This challenge can take significantly longer than the simpler Hunt 20 quests, especially if you are playing with random teammates. Do not worry if your first attempt fails because understanding the puzzles and roles makes later runs much easier.
A few things can make the process smoother:
- Always check the statue for the current required loadout.
- Do not blindly follow old weapon or suit lists.
- Check whether role selection is available when entering the quest.
- Make sure your team has the abilities needed for the current puzzles.
- Use chat to give teammates clear instructions.
- Do not rush puzzle mechanisms.
- If a puzzle fails, change the order of your actions.
- Stay with the team when a section requires multiple players.
- Be prepared for the quest mechanics to change after future updates.
The Base Wars secret item quest in The Hunt 20 is built around teamwork rather than simply defeating enemies. The most important preparation step is making sure your equipment matches the statue’s current loadout, since the quest has been updated and older guides may no longer show the correct setup.
Once inside, coordinate the available roles, work through the puzzles, and defeat the final boss to complete the challenge and earn the badge. Since Roblox and Base Wars can continue changing the Hunt quest, always check the statue and the current quest interface before starting your run.
