What is the Hardest Monster to Hunt in your Opinion ?

[Letros]

Just a research about the comunity, you can tell me about the "chosen one" and why he/she is the most hardest monster to hunt

rule of thumb : if monster is more annoying than X (X beeing the patience level of the hunter) apply sticky 3 cheese to remove annoying level.

Lame.

Bowguns are literal cancer.

Ancient Leshen obviously because you are only given chopsticks.

[Chimken]

Tempered Kushala, because it tests my patience too much being in the air 70% of the time.

[Bloodchief]

Extremoth, even with MR gear that thing is a pita to solo with the constant charybdis spam, and having only one comet to cover from the OHKO meteor. I'd say it's still the hardest monster in the game.

I found Extremoth with MR gear to be easier to solo than normal Behemoth with HR gear.

Extremoth for me is "ok", he is really strong, but you can avoid him very well and deal great damage in his area of damage. But got it, thanks for the comment !

Tempered Rajang, no contest. Tempered Lunastra and Tempered Kushala Daora may be annoying, but you can counter-build against them. There is no counter-building for the crazy monkey.

Mind's eye and maybe tremor res if it's an issue.

lol bounce is the smallest issue

capcom brought his hard arms but forgot to bring his good hitzones from past gen

He totally has small openings and whatnot but i feel super discouraged taking advantage of anything if i don't get a guaranteed headsnipe(furious specifically). Like "cool, here's an opening but since he has only 2 parts that will take good damage(1 for angry furious) i might as well wait for something better to come along." I am straight up only losing like 30 damage if I just save myself the effort and wait for a juicy zone, which is bad fight design.

And to make matters worse, due to his topple counter the player gets even less chances to capitalize on downs thanks to his very low tolerance rage meter. The only times you can really pull off hard hitters safely is from wallbangs(1) and traps(2) because at any given time a partbreak topple can just become a cart since the air was feeling a little solid to jang.

Furious is better and worse than regular MHW Jang because he gives more openings but also has less parts to hit, and his counter is worse. The worst part in total though is Furious Jang's fightzone. That specific Hoarfrost area he chooses to fight in brings out the absolute worst in the monster. The ice sheet area with water waves on heavy hits shows off how much random tremor he has because...he can. Why does his punch flurry have a tremor at the end? So people who have expert positioning can't use it as an opportunity to counterattack lol

The area with the breaking ice spikes and river gives him a lot of wall to topple cancel from which is so demoralizing, and the water gives iceblight if you stand in it too long so if you wallbang near any water...♥♥♥♥ you.

This became a rant but i'm just annoyed with some fights in this game. I can't call them "hard yet enjoyable" because MHW has so much random BS packed in in varying degrees. I could learn Rajang inside and out and would never feel good about beating him.

And while I'm at it, the two elder dragons that aren't "you vs monster" but "you vs aura", Kushala and Vaal Hazak. Vaal Hazak is easily worse because it gets to do damage to you from across the whole area without actually attacking. And once you get the blight taken care of with some decorations, the monster is piss easy and boring.

Namielle also kinda has this issue but I think is a better fight overall. if the player got more agency in aura control instead of it being super specific I would like the fight more. And AT namielle took more agency away from the player by being so sopping wet that you can play for element the entire fight

snip~

The point was that you can counter build to avoid Rajang's unique mechanics to the same effectiveness as you can for Lunastra or Kushala. Specifically for Luna, there's Wind Res and I guess fire res but she still has a massive amount of bs piled on top. Have fun running around like a moron while she covers the whole arena in blue flames that basically force you to superman dive every time she does anything, also her stupid face boops do a disproportionately large amount of damage and most of her animations feel sped up. Also she has terrible hitzones for cutting weapons, which claw kind of alleviates but it's still massively unfun.

Black Diablos. I would rather fight Rajang than have to deal with the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that is Black Diablos.

Ancient Leshen was the hardest for me at a time when there was no IB. It was abysmally tough and I did it with randoms, same as I do with any other hunts most of the time))) I had to kick everyone from the party who wasn't excellent enough to bear the fight. I didn't do this selection ever before Ancient Leshen

Kulve Taroth (HR). It's super hard to stay focused and not get drowsy.

Zorah, takes a minimum of 20 minutes.

LMFAO, DIABLOS IS SUCH A ♥♥♥♥♥ DAMM ( I NEED TO KILL HER IN THE GUIDING LANDS FOR UPGRADE MY AGITATOR CHARM AND DON'T HAVE ONE TO CALL :C), but really, i hate the hitbox of this monster, and the way she always run from us and strike back in a monstuous way
