    Oceaniz lore hunters: "this monster is/was incredibly strong and literally impossible to defeat without help from outside forces. It moved so fast we couldnt keep track of it, one attack turned a hunter into mush. I watched it burn, freeze, electrocute, and dragonify a man in the most gruesome death ive ever seen."

    the reason we have 50 minute limit on hunts is because 50 minutes is one day in game, so a hunt that took 5 minutes still took the better part of 2 hours plus there's the whole fact of the monsters really are That Dangerous, even with the armor, so healing is more like your character saying "oh shit that was close I'm gonna take a shot to calm my nerves after that one

    Got to say, that "Black Wolf" incident legit sounds like a horror story. Those young hunters were sent on what was suppose to be go on a a relatively easy/medium challenge hunt and gain valuable hunting experience, but instead they died a brutal and horrid death due to mistaking a Garuga for a Kut-ku.

  • @JanusHoW

    Kind of ironic that the most common threat to human settlements is not the terrifying King of the Sky that is Rathalos, the embodiment of absolute power that is Tigrex or even elder dragons, but the "lowly" Yian Kut-Ku. I also didn't know about their shrieks being so loud - it never seems to bother Hunters, as it doesn't make them flinch or produce the air-disrupting effect that louder roars do. I suspect those cries keep ordinary folk up at night during the Kut-Ku breeding season, though. Also, it's an interesting note that Kut-Ku Scales are the only carve-able monster part you can also get from gathering spots - in the Forest & Hills/Verdant Hills, that is.

    Kut Ku taught me how to actualy hunt way back when I first played Freedom Unite. It was brutal but nessessary. And even later in high rank, when you have way better gear, he can still beat you up for good, teaching that every monster must be handled carefully and with respect.

    I've always been a fan of Garuga, among other things because it feels like you're up against an actually intelligent fighter. For instance,most large monsters will use their roars merely as a threat display or emotional outlet, but Yian Garuga seem to know that their shrieks are capable of temporarily stunning hunters and put that knowledge to use. They scream in order to set up their opponent for a toxic tailflip.

    I see Garuga is the Honey Badger of Monster Hunter, something generally smaller then the rest of its competition but due to its sheer levels of aggression and ferocity, but personally I think in an open environment a Rathalos would be able to take downna Garuga, buuuuut change it to a more forested area where Rathalos doesnt have as much room to menuver and I say Garuga wins that

    A Yian Garuga is as if the spirit and attributes of a Mighty Rathalos was imbued upon a Yian kut-ku. Prolonged flight, venemous tail, Advanced Fire breath, Tough shell, all upon the base of a clever, clever bird wyvern, with an intense love for violence. However, despite its ferocity, I propose it be used similarly to the Kut Ku; as a training challenge. For experienced hunters looking to better themselves to reach greater hieghts, when Raths are too predictable and you need a challenge to grow, I suggest seeking out a Yian Garuga quest. While similar superficially to a Rathalos, the fight will teach you many things and keep you challenged throughout, forcing you to grow into a higher state of mind; anticipating moves, Learning on the fly, Focusing every single move you make to a perfect dance of scale and blade untill you have the openings you need to achieve victory. It will allow valuable growth for experienced hunters looking to become true experts.

    Fun fact, in Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, there was a Variant to be all metal or silver looking for a Metroid collaboration with Nintendo. MH is known for these types of collabs. You would hunt it so you could get the Samus Aran armor in her suit or in her jumpsuit. It was a reference to Ridley in his metal form. Fact check me in case I missed anything! I definitely remember this fight and it was so much fun. I think they even made custom metallic sounds when fighting it but that could be my false memory of it appearing that amazing at the time

    Yian Garuga, one of my favourite monsters... Iceborne gave it the overhaul it needed, 4 Ultimate gave me the best version of its armour (a coloured cloak and great skills) and GU put it in the habitat it first appeared in (Verdant Hills). as a monster - and likeseveral others, it has everything i'd want if *i* were a monster: fire breath, great protection, the right habitat and a good placement in the food chain. as a hunter, its armour - 4U's, specifically - has nearly everything i could want in an armour set: a good design - the cloak is an absolute bonus, great Fire Res (most monsters i hunt are fire-breathers), good skills and enough slots to jam the ones the set is missing. perhaps MH6 will feature Yian Garuga as a Master rank monster? perhaps give us the 4U armour set? (still don't like what Iceborne did with it) will it appear in the Verdant Hills - which i hope they return along with the Marshlands? i hope all 3 come to pass.
