I beat stupid Kirin at hunter rank 8 or whatever because I’ve been doing optional poo poo. I thought it was gonna be like Ornstein and Smoug or something the way that the games thread talks about it. Even with gunlance you have like 3 seconds to awkwardly hop out of the way of the comically telegraphed lightning.

Tempered Kirin is high octane refined bullshit

kirin is a fun fight cause its different and unique but the tempered one basically one shots you with its attacks and too many of its attacks are randomly placed lightning bolts so it sucks rear end

thats one aspect of MH i dont like too much. the tempered monsters are basically just the normal ones but theirmoves do way more damage so all the elder dragosn ahve moves that one shot you. theyre all telegraphed ok (except kirin) but i much prefer if they did a little more damage but had more health too and were just more aggressive overall. basically i like the kind of step up in difficulty between normal diablos and black diablos versus the kind of step up in difficulty between nergigante and tempered nergigante

Fungah!

Slowly working my way through high rank missions and at 80 hours I notice for the first time my Palico mounting a small jagrass and riding him around in mounted combat. This game fuckin rules.

People chewed through the content super fast, I think. I'm only about 75 hours deep and am barely into HR quests. The majority of people I've seen on twitch finished the game in a week.

Im not using the same moth that everyone else uses, just so you know. And I wanted to use the Hammer and Switch Axe as side mains but to face facts Ill probabyl never retrain my muscle memory enough to do that.
