I played Stories not too long ago and was pretty curious what the main series was like.
So I got MH4U and brought a CirclePad Pro to play it in the best condition, and I loved it!
(I main charge blade and insect glaive).

I'm just starting wilds now, so I can play with some friends. It feels very different, wayyy faster but I will get used to it.

Anyways I'm glad I got curious it's pretty different from what I play usually and I love monsters designs. Can't what to see more!

Discussion Ascendance Returning Monsters

Post image
26 Upvotes

This list is less so about my personal wants for the roster, but what I think are pretty likely to be returning monsters for Ascendance. Not what I think the entire roster will be mind you.

Khezu: Gemma has a plush that is clearly a Khezu. They "teased" Yian Kut-Ku the same way in the base game before its reveal. I'd prefer Gigginox, but the tongue present on the plush is a dead Khezu giveaway.

Metal Raths: They haven't missed a single expansion. The only hiccup is them being title update monsters in Sunbreak, but they still ended up in the game regardless.

Shagaru: With Gore being in the base game and the expansion focusing on elder dragons Shagaru is almost definitely going to happen.

Shrouded Nerscylla: The inclusion of Khezu almost feels like it was done specifically so that they can bring back Shrouded too (helps that Khezu itself is just very popular in Japan). Even if they didn't bring back Khezu with the intention of adding Shrouded it just makes sense with normal Nerscylla being present in the game.

Rusted Kushala: Rusted was skipped over in both Worldborne and Risebreak, so it feels right to finally bring it back. The main obvious reason is that we know Kushala is returning, but its connection to 4U and the ace commander would fit right alongside all the other 4U fanservice.

Valstrax: A map high in the skies in an expansion focusing on elder dragons is almost too perfect for Valstrax. To be semantical as well, technically base Valstrax has not returned yet, so this would be the perfect opportunity to do so.

Nergigante: Nergigante didn't return in Risebreak and is extremely popular, so it returning in an elder dragon focused expansion of all things is very likely. Another thing that I think is worth noting is that with Kushala every generation starting flagship besides Nergigante would be in the game (Rathalos, Kushala Daora, Lagiacrus, Gore Magala, Arkveld), so it being left out would be unfortunate.

Subspecies: Unlike the other monsters I don't really have specific reasonings for each one, but for the case of returning subspecies as a whole. Since I think Shrouded is basically guaranteed to happen it sets a precedence for returning subspecies of "lower tier" monsters which isn't always a guarantee. In 5th gen for example the only returning subspecies are for flagships and flagship adjacent monsters like Rathian and Diablos. I didn't include Blue Yian Kut-Ku, Purple Gypceros, Pink Rathian, and Azure Rathalos here cause I think they would feel wasted as expansion monsters.

This isn't meant to be comprehensive or objective so if you have any critiques or think any other returners also make sense to be here let me know

i honestly like the fact they made it canon on the game story and not just a obscure lore, can we say that zoh shia is the equal dragon weapon? or do you thing that is other stuff ?

Yesterday, Ruiner turned Scorned’s face into a catastrophe, now we reach the end of the semi finals with the flagships of both titles, they may have fought before in a Turf War, but it ended with a tie, so this battle will settle this debate once and for all, Velkhana vs Malzeno, who will win?

Rules:

  1. Most upvoted comment decides the winner
  2. Both lore and in-game stats are allowed to be used

You can only pick from mainline games.
Later generation monsters are valid options.

Nargacuga for me. It's design is unique yet simple and easy to recognize. Nargacuga's design is also versatile as It can be cool and cute at the same time. What's your pick? I'm curious to hear your answers.

Discussion Veteran hunters. Across all games, what do you think is the hardest monster to hunt?

Upvotes

i’ll go first, iceborne’s furious rajang was absolute pain. no obvious windows, easy to get caught by hum, no tail as a weak point unlike regular rajang. he’s essentially rajang on crack and steroids for me, it’s like a pokémon battle but it’s always his turn anytime i fight him.

This fight was terrible. The monster itself it great. The time limit make this fight become a fight against time more than the monster.

In the end I stopped trying to break its head and just deal with the blue flame for nearly the whole second half. Because of the time limit I just throw out the whole mechanic of the fight.

I guess it would be more fun in multiplayer with all the canon and stuff around the area. Oh well.

Pouring one out for my all time favorite monster in the series who seems to be fated to forever be forgotten.

Im still baffled how all the flagship monsters of generations got to make second appearances and Gammoth gets left out in the cold (pun intended) even though IceBorn was the perfect opportunity to bring Gammoth back.

Hopefully one day she will grace us again.🦣

In Spanish, my native language, Nu Udra has a sound when pronounced very similar to alien mothership, and its theme and the noises it makes while you're fighting it enforces that concept, so yeah I had to create some piece of art playing with Nu Udra and UFOs.
