Description It’s been forever since another MH picture ;__;
Trying something different with a monster from Monster Hunter Frontier-- the Japanese MMO version of Monster Hunter, Kuarusepusu being a fire and lightning based leviathan-- think if Lagiacrus and Agnaktor fused into an unholy abomination.

I keep up with the release of new monsters even though I'll probably never get a chance to actually fight them-- I still enjoy seeing the new concepts they come up with and watching the fights online is fun.

Thanks for looking! Β

Mhm! I'd love to do more Frontier guys down the line, theres a good bunch of them that look like that could fit into any Monster Hunter. Some of the newer monsters made it into Frontier and I wish we could try out some of their guys, without all the laser beams though XD

frontier from what i've seen does seem to have the more fun and crazy designs and powers like that mercury dragon
(Harudomerugu accordingΒ to google)
would be neat as i hear those games are a lot of fun

Yeah, totally! It would be some effort though just because so many of those monsters have crazy lasers and huge map covering explosions XD I think it could be attempted though c:

Cool cool. I like some of the designs they make for Frontier but it gets a little too insane and crazy for me-- I don't think I could keep up XD I like guys like this where I feel like it could implemented into one of the more mainstream games. Happy you like'em!

I also like to look at frontier monsters. Some are overdesigned as hell (Varusaburosu) but some just look so fun to fight...

Maybe someday we'll get a chance.... in the very distant future.

Cosmopoliturtle In reply to ShrubbyNerb [2016-04-24 19:04:59 +0000 UTC]

Yeah there are some more from Frontier I wanna draw eventually. There's a good bunch that look really cool and look just as integrated into the world as the normal games that I wish I could get a chance to hunt. The bullet-hell, pseudo-final fantasy lookin' ones that just fire huge lasers I'm not as into, but a few of them still kinda work so I might think about doing some of them as well n_nΒ 

I know online I've seen a few people who trick the system to get in but it sounds way too complicated and way too skeevy to me XD

The only "BLARGH LASERS" monster I'm interested in is Unknown/Black Rathian. I like her themesong. xD
Akura Vashimu/Jebia have pretty nice looking armours, and so does Espinas. There's just SO much...

Yeah, I believe it also requires stealing Japanese SSN numbers? and on top of that, subscription fees. Sub fees are a big nono for me since the Canadian dollar is in the toilet at the moment. ~ .~

I believe MHOnline (the chinese MH mmo) has one of the Akura scorpions, but that also requires stealing SSN numbers to play, but it is F2P, so it has that going for it.

Cosmopoliturtle In reply to ShrubbyNerb [2016-04-27 02:28:24 +0000 UTC]

Fair enough, that one is pretty neat! The Blue/White Rathalos equivalent isn't too bad either design wise, if not a bit basic (dunno how I feel about the side-face tusk things and the light element though)
Disufiroa is probably my guilty pleasure, I really dig the colours and the overall design (face kinda reminds me of Gravios) even though it's probably the most lasery laser blaster out of all of them XD
Guys like Berukyurosu and Pariapuria are the ones I'm more into, cause I can imagine them living in the same world as the ones we're used to, even if their move pools are a little ridiculous, Espinas and the Scorpions are cool too! n.n

Yeah you got a get a hold of them somehow which isn't great. I know they ban Western players if they find them out so you'd have to be careful anyway -- I've heard most of the actual Japanese players don't care though.
I've been into the original monsters from MHOnline as well, and I'm excited to see how that develops.
Maybe with the next few Western releases they'll finally realize there's a market over here, even though I thought we proved that last time, but maaaybe one day~ XD

I just like their contrast. Evil Rathian and Angel Rathalos. I know they're not related to the main species, but meh. They just look real nice and I'd love to fight them someday. Disufiroa's amazing, though damn, his opening attack looks OP. xD

My friend loved Pariapuria's design, she thinks it's cute and I agree, aside from the vomiting. Berukyurosu reminds me of a phoenix, which is a pretty cool design. I also like Baruragaru 's design.

People complain that Frontier's monsters are overdesigned but really it's only a handfull that are over the top Final Fantasy style. The music's generally pretty good for the over the top looking ones anyway so I can forgive them!

I did try out MHO but... I had no idea what I was doing. lol. I just wish it would come over here if MH Frontier doesn't. F2p does better than sub based games in the west anyway. (WoW excluded)

Cosmopoliturtle In reply to ShrubbyNerb [2016-04-28 21:13:56 +0000 UTC]

Yeah it's a cool contrast for sure. I guess I just find the idea of a light element being strange, but it doesn't irk me that much. I'd imagine if they ever made a quest where you have to fight both at the same time, it would be impossible XD Yeah Disufiroa's attack can wipe the whole team immediately, which while hilarious, sounds kinda bullshit XD

Baruragaru is a cool one for sure! I love seeing how new games and designs take a try at leviathans and brute wyverns! I really hope we seem some new fanged wyverns to outside of Zinogre-- I dunno if that was ever the intention to just have it be a one-and-done, but I don't think it would hurt to try and make a cool family tree. n_n

Monster Hunter has always been good with music (especially recently, like, my god, so good XD) so that's understandable. A hype song in a video game can really put you in the moment! Also totally agree about MHO and F2p-- I really wish WoW would adopt the Guild Wars 2 idea of making the base game a little more expensive and then having a store of mainly superfluous stuff, but it probably wont happen.

There IS a quest where you fight both at the same time, and it's G Rank. ... -sobs-
It can't be any worse than G Rank Fatalis family's OHKO moves in MHFU. I still fail soloing G White Fatty sometimes because he randomly belly slams me while I'm still recovering from shooting him. Grrrrr! xD

Yeah, Zinogre's lonely, he needs more fanged wyvern buddies for sure. It's a bit sad that he's the only one.

Oh yes, though I have a nostalgia for the g1 and 2 music, Frontier and gen 3 have excellent music. I.. can't really say I'm fond of 4U's rendition of Dondruma Town or Tigrex's theme, though. Maybe they couldv'e kept normal Tigrex them for regular and Brute Tigrex and used the new one for Molten Tigrex?

I'm also not keen on how Capcom's been re-naming everything from gen 1 and 2. Seriously, changing Dondruma to Dundorma or Nekoht to Felcote when they were already established in the English PSP games? I'm not even gonna get started on the weapon/armour renaming. It's just a pet peeeeeve.

Cosmopoliturtle In reply to ShrubbyNerb [2016-04-29 03:05:13 +0000 UTC]

Oh jesus, that sounds like the worst thing ever XD
I thought it did just cause it's a huge explosion instant kill blast on the spot you spawn in from, so if you weren't ready immediately out the gate or had internet lag you wouldn't stand a chance, and if the whole party gets hit the quest is over in less then a couple of seconds XD
For us though White Fatais is probably the worst XD I had so much anti-fun fighting them in the PSP game, which is kind of a shame for the biggest final boss to be more annoying then actually challenging. In the new games I don't have too many problems with Crimson Fatalis, though the body slams and the feet drag are still annoying.

The monster themes for Cross are also really good! I don't have too much of an issue with redone music, but I get the preference. The renaming thing is also a bummer, mainly just annoying since they have others set up already in the canon that really didn't need retouching. Maybe they had different localizers but still they could of checked XD

Looks like it, lol!

Well, I think G Crimson started out with a belly flop or an OHKO nose dive, so same problem, just smaller area to dodge.

Oh lord, I hated having to solo grind White Fatty's armour so much.. thank goodness for Adrenaline+2 and clust/bombs... and it STILL took 3 or 4 quests just to break everything and KILL the bastard. I can do it online now, but nobody plays Unite anymore :'D..
I do wish they brought over the G-Rank White Fatty armour instead of shoving the G-Rank skills onto the HR armour in MH4U though. I like the HR armour but it doesn't feel right. >_>;

Yeah, Cross/Gen sounds like it has some great music, plus it brought back Forest and Hills (or "verdant hills" idk.. sticking with what I know) which is my favourite area. Now if only they'd bring back Yama Tsukami so we'd have an excuse to have Thunderbugs back and make the night look prettier. Haha

Aaah, I hate doing builds like that XD I get their use and there's some tactical stuff to it but I'd rather just fight the monsters head on - from experience anyway doing that stuff usually just gets me killed. I used to grind Lavasioth with my friend because the g-rank Gendrome sword and shield had an OP amount of paralysis damage and would paralyze him for days XD I used to play Unite still when the 3rd games were out just to experience the old monsters, but now that the majority of them have been revamped I mainly just stick with the new stuff, and it seems most of the ones they missed are going to show up in Generations c:

Β I wouldn't mind seeing Yama again, I think with the improved climbing mechanics it could be really neat, and I wouldn't mind seeing thunder bugs back-- I thought it was cool seeing something that was normally an item in a simple, but still physical form

Fatalis is literally the only monster I feel comfortable battling with 1HP besides Plesioth in Unite xD

Standing in their crotch is normally a safe zone from their meteors/lightning, you just need to know when to gtfo when they're about to belly flop/snap n' drag.

I still play MHFU if only because nostalgia, and I love testing myself against Golden Rajang. I STILL can't kill him in just 1 try. Someday, Rajang... Someday.

Ahah, I kind of wish they'd revamp Vespoid Queen to be a legit boss monster like Seltas Queen. That would be pretty cool, but you'd still have to kill a few drones to summon her just so the mechanic doesn't get lost.

Cosmopoliturtle In reply to ShrubbyNerb [2016-05-06 21:02:02 +0000 UTC]

I comfortable with none XD

Yeah I'm always bad at the gtfo part, but the rest I can handle okay XD I had more luck with Dire Miralis even though its basically the same-kinda-sorta thing XD 3rd gen is one I've been nostalgic the most for, just cause Tri was the first game in the series I played for real (I had rented the 1st game when I was a babby but I had no idea what it was or what I was doing) after getting to the middle of Tri I went back and got Unite on the PSP so my perceptions were warped but I was still really into it. c: I'm happy 3rd gen guys are coming back in Generations, and I hope one day everyone can be in every game (even though that's not currently possible XD)

Also yeah Vespoid Queen and Shakalaka King were interesting ideas for sure-- I'd like to see them revamped but I think they may have been forgotten along the way- a Shakalaka boss would shake things up for sure, but yeah Vespoid would be more likely to come back if they ever decided to XD

My first game was MHF2, I never had a ps2 so I never tried the first game, but attacking with the control stick sounded awful anyway... ><

Admittedly, I found 3rd gen kinda easy, except for Alatreon. FUUUUCK Alatreon. xD Soloing that thing is a nightmare. But I did love P3rd HD. Yukumo village was just as beautiful and relaxing as Pokke and Amatsu was a fun fight. (i also like that sony doesn't region lock) I can't wait to fight her again in Generations! This time with people!

Who knows, they might come back someday, and I really hope they make Vespoid Queen more than a joke. lol

I never got a grasp at how much it would throw at you right at the beginning with the first one XD It's kind of a miracle these games get localized but I'm happy that its becoming the norm.

Alatreon was a huge pain for me as well XD I found 3rd gen easy also! I kinda miss it because I liked doing g-rank by myself-- like whenever I didn't have friends available I kinda liked being able to progress with whatever goals I had set for myself by myself. I could kinda pull it off in Unite if I was lancing or gun lancing, but with 4 Ultimate I can't do XD Excited to fight Amatsu for the first time! n_n She looks like a fun one to draw.

Ooohh yeah soloing Unite was painful, I did it with Longsword, Hammer and LBG/HBG for the Fattys. For Chameleos I did fire dualswords. I never got into lancing until gen 3 where everything BUT lances sucked unterwater. ><

4 ultimate is easy to solo once you git gud with the glaive/greatsword. I was actually sad with how much easier they made the Fatalis trio what with removing armour mode and how easy they were to get mounts on.... xD I was looking forward to showing my friends how2clustspam White Fatalis but since his armour mode is a joke now we just glaive'd it to death.

Amatsu is fun to fight, too! I love her music and atmosphere. I think they should try out more flying leviathans like her. Watch out for that one hit kill move though. That is classic MH right there, haha!

Yeah in Unite I needed a block. In 3rd gen I could go with whatever weapon I wanted for the most part, underwater though I usually used a hammer or switch axe, something kinda fast, being slow underwater just felt awful to me XD

I haven't got gud so I can't yet XD I'm not totally opposed to a tweaked armor mode because originally it just felt like anti-fun and not even in a challenging to me, but I'd rather there be something then just having be a breeze c:

The celestial dragon look is really cool, can't wait to give it a spin!

I think White Fatty's armour mode should definitely still be a thing at a certain percentage of HP since they massively reduced his health pool. After all, fighting Apex monsters is essentially the same thing only twice as deadly. xD

Yes, Amatsu is fun, I think you'll enjoy grinding for her parts. The scenery is beautiful <3
