Optional 7 star missions not showing up

[ZhaeveTTV]

I'm trying to get the rainbow armor color so i did every optional from low to high rank but i notice that some of the missions are not showing up like the special arena missions for capturing some of the monsters. It would show the monsters i did capture and complete for but when i get done with another quest it would so a different monster arena i did already yet still say im missing some.

Special arena quests should pop up and stay up, when capturing the appropriate monsters, until you've run it at least once. After that, it randomly shows up.

If you're not seeing the quest, it means you either didn't capture the monster, or you did capture it, already did the mission, and it's currently on rotation.

Suggestion: cap EVERY monster, Low Rank to High Rank and do NOT complete the arena quests until you got all of them

Capturing a higher-rank monster also counts for unlocking lower-rank Special Arenas.
Technically best to avoid it entirely until MR, then capture everything once in MR (Bagel, Jho in HR) - can go by Guild Card's capture record then.

But there are monsters that simply don't have Special Arena quests, so...
Get a list, mark the ones you have available, and track which ones show up on rotation.
Or get the list and capture the highest-available-rank of every monster with a Special Arena.
Rainbow Pigment only needs LR and HR.

that's the thing is that i captured every monster low to high rank at least 5 to 9 times but the special arena show up then disappear

Yes, Special Arena quests you've already completed show up randomly.
After being unlocked by a capture, they are always available before you complete them the first time.

(Same thing, different wording)

Quests you have completed and can't see still count towards completion.
Ranks are marked silver if all currently-available quests are complete, and gold if all possible quests are complete.

Completing all Special Arena quests unlocks "The White Winds of the New World" quest, which finally rewards the pigment option.
Even if you complete it early by joining it in Multiplayer, you still need to finish the preceding Special Arena quests before receiving the pigment option.
