First of all, you should know that MH1 is generally the hardest of all MH games. Though it does not have high rank and all that stuff, the control system has flaws and the monsters seem to have more health. I've gotten to the end, having beaten all urgents with the exception of the Diablos and Powderstone missions at the end. PM me what monster you're having trouble with.

Also, I can beat the YKK quickly too with my Barbaroi Tusk. :D
