Ama isn't really the hardest of them all in P3. He's basically a flying leviathan with flashy moves, not really that special. All monsters (save for a few) have been tuned down to be more suitable for solo play (most notably Barroth).

Also, Kehlven, you're wrong about that. Ballistas are near useless, only the binder occasionally comes in handy. If you have a bunch of gunners he will be extremely easy even without using binders/ballistas at all. Kills averagely take 4-6 mins with 4 guns.

Black Tigrex ain't much harder either, the only difference in combat with the noral one is that he has a deep-inhale-RAWRLAZ0R which he sometimes pairs up with a chasing attack (see vids). It's abit like HR500 Tigrex's roar, but still not as badass.
