i need to rant about Kirin
why they thought it was a good idea to make her head the ONLY weak part ?? as if the cheap lightning wasn't enough you gave her just 1 weak part which is the hardest one to hit, and also your attacks will bounce off her body unless you have minds eye jewel:steamfacepalm:

this is too many bad design decisions into one monster this is the worst monster design in the game in my opinion

You think she sucks, wait until you meet Lunastra. Kirin is a cakewalk, and if you've got IB and the clutch claw, well, I don't know what's easier than a cakewalk (a cakesit?), but that's what she becomes.

Lunastra has at least 2 weak spots but Kirin only 1, and her entire body is like iron everything will bounce off or do next to no damage...this is the worst balanced monster in the game

Lunastra has garbage hitzones, literally broken hitboxes, complete long-term wide-area denial from her flames, and you bounce off of half her body at all times, not just when she's enraged.

Kirin's head is the main weakspot, but anyone can just mindlessly chop at the body and she'll still die in under 10 minutes, in a fight that is far, far easier to survive.

if you can beat T3 Kirin in under 10 minutes you should have no problem with Lunastra

just saying

I use hammer against Kirin, it’s almost too easy. I’ve also had very good success with lance and gunlance.

i don't main hammer i tried with the quick draw style GS thinking that's the safest bet to make this a comfortable fight but it's not... her head is too difficult to hit consistently , even when she's knocked down it's easy to miss her head

and with lance i imagine it's a nightmare since she's jumping around alot and i avoid long range weapons because i think they suck, one hit and you're nearly dead

crappy fight

Good thing shelling damage doesn’t give a ♥♥♥♥ about armor. Gunlance ftw.

Any range weapon pretty much trivialises kirin.

Quick weapons excel at Kirin.

Kirin is easy with the lance actually. While he is blasting lighting you just counter it. Easy.

Having horse problems? Sounds like you need our benevolent lord and saviour, the Hammer.
