User blog comment:Lord Loss/Discussion of the Week: Elder Dragons/@comment-4009941-20140617051816

Lao-Shan Lung: Originally very annoying and a pain to fight. Frontier made some improvements to make the fight more fast paced and deadly by allowing it to actualy be able to die in walking area instead of being forced to wait in final area. Also his appearance in the Polar Sea was pretty awesome as you fight the monsters there.

Fatalis: 1st-2nd Gen Fatalis was not cool.... death by push ups and toe punches made for a really undramatic fight but atleast music is decent. MHFG Fatalis is awesome new moves no more push ups of doom actual attacks and powers that 1st gen claimed it had but never showed any proof. MHFG Fatalis is without a doubt the best of the Origin Dragons to me. Atomic bombs that explode a entire half of scrade castle, SETTING SELF ON FIRE!, Orbs of pure darkness on teh field, red balls of burning darkness falling from the sky by voice cammand, swallowing ones self in darkness then hovering over targets in a orb of darkness, tail attacks of Dragon Element, Litterally ripping the ground apart by his bare hands, unique hand lasers of blue fire, setting the ground and the castle on fire!, and NO PUSH-UPS!.

Kirin: 1st-2nd Gen Kirin seemed pretty fun to me. Was a nice challenge with his paralysis but eventually he got kinda easy to predict. Frontier HC Kirin is a monster that summons thunder on top of all 4 people at once without range limits, and I like it. He has a more horse muscle build body and thunder pulsing on his body which is cool and just the way he changes ares by jumping strait into the sky was enough to make me like him. MH4 Kirin based some of their attacks on Frontiers but I like Frontiers HC Kirin's behavior better from video I seen.

Kushala Daora: 2nd Gen Kusha I enjoyed a lot it was like fighting a living statue since his skin is covered in actual metal. I thought his wind gimmick was awesome though for some reason they changed his behavior as a flying monster to a more land based monster from MH2-MHF2/MHFU which kinda dissapoints me since he is wind based. Frontier HC Kusha is incredible, its my favorite Elder Dragon. He turns into a ice monster that leaves ice all over the place and even freezes over water with spiky ice. He can make frea roaming twisters and at the same time make twisters appear from under all 4 players at once and a few random location stationary ones all at the SAME TIME while using his wings with the tips going in trirls like he is spinning the wind with his hands. HC Rusted Kusha is so different taht its not even just a recolor. Its wings have more claws, its tail has spikes and it just looks older in general with huge black horns and even more new moves and drops rust to make you lose charpness on top of the ice spikes and both HC Kusha give def down status when too close entering rage making for a intense fight. MH4 Kusha uses Tornados like Frontiers and is airborn again making him more of a challenge again.

Chameleos: 2nd Gen Chameleos is incredible a actually invisable Elder Dragon and people complain about it on MHF2/MHFU yet thats actually a nerfed version when MH2 and Frontiers stays invisable even while tripped unable to move. He was my first Elder Dragon to hunt and I enjoyed every moment of it with the surprise he may be behind me or actually directly in my face. Frontiers HC Chameleos is strange and more litteral to its title "Mist Dragon" as it makes bigger poison smoke screen and acid blobs that on frontier give Vocal Cord Poisoning making one unable to open chat bar as their vocal cords are poisoned which is very cool. He gains tail spin attacks, invisible jump tongue attacks without range limit since he bassicly hover flys to a person while invisible and even gains a combo attack of throwing person in the air to be poison smoked mid air. Also not to forget he make bubble come out of the ground all around him giving him this mysterious vibe as the bubbles if the yhit you makes your stamina run out instantly.

Teostra: 2nd Gen Teostra is still fun as his agression seems to be very unrelenting at first. Though his control over fire seemed quite limited but his more recent revamps improve this. Frontier Supremacy Teostra..... http://monsterhunter.wikia.com/wiki/File:Supremecy_teostra_P4.jpg and http://monsterhunter.wikia.com/wiki/File:Supremecy_Teostra_P5.jpg Need I say more?. His fight is insanely hard and his power alone scares the mess out of me! his roar when he SETS HIMSELF ON FIRE chills me everytime and his flame breath allways at full range, explosions just from him charging, Flying fire breath creates explosions and sets the ground on fire more than 5 times the monsters length, every claw swipe makes explosions, he dances with 3 stylish jumps and flaming explosions surround him, he uses Super Nova attack MH4 took from him, He does a sneezing attack and he sets the area around him aflame in pure fire not explosions bigger than himself, He just spits and he makes fire tornado big enough to stuff a Rathian inside, people are scared to even hunt him just from his attack power alone, he can instantly jump back leaving powder and then use his wings to clip you with his wings in a actual wing attack followed by a explosion!. I crown you a monster truly worth giving the title "Emporer Of The Elder Dragons".

Yama Tsukami: Sorry Yama but even Lao gets more credit from me than you... wasted potential... Frontiers revamped one they mentioned better come out soon because Yama is really getting... unwanted and left behind...

Crimson Fatalis: 2nd Gen Crimson seemed like a attempt to make Fatalis harder with less push-ups it sorta worked till you get tired of him... though unatral power to summon rocks from space is very cool!. MHFG Crimson Fatalis has a incredible soundtrack, a fight that actually is dramatic, and does something no other monster ever done, Sink entire CHUNKS of the area into lava and if you don't climb out YOU with it!. Crawling on walls was awesome and upside down flying. Being able to actually control fire and magma(*Cough* 2nd gen Teo tried) just by using your voice is awesome and insane!. That 2 part soundtrack makes me wanna fight him over and over.

White Fatalis: 2nd Gen White Fatalis was the best of the Fatalis a fight I enjoyed through the pain and fear even in my best armor on MHFU G(Download quest) White Fatalis would 1 hit me with thunder making him a true test of skill and patience as if you got too greedy you could fail whole quest. Breaking his wings.... thats another even harder story to do solo....

Favorite: HC Kusha(Only HC) from being a true ice monster and actually controling the wind to the point of using his wings like hands that twirl the air. And 2nd place is Supremacy Teostra http://monsterhunter.wikia.com/wiki/File:Supremecy_Teostra_P1.jpg (Tell me how you could not like something that cool? its cool even when it kicks your butt!).

Least Favorite: Yama sorry but you need improvements badly... even Lao got better improvements than you...

Add Into MH4U: Chameleos! really capcom? make a wall climbing game but not add the one elder dragon with wall crawling special charistics?(Bad enough no crabs for underwater...). Lunastra I don't even have to say why. White Fatalis and Dire Miralis should atleast be mentioned in 4U(And MHFG better be adding a G White Fatalis) to complete the famed quartet.

Improvements(This better not be locked into 4th gen only): Chameleos if added to 4U should be able to retain its vocal cord poison from Frontier, should be able to invade quests without giving a eye icon while in area until he hits you or you hit it, be able to be watched eating insects and unique animations of tongue catching small(Kelbi) herbivores, Obviously be crawling on walls, and can be able release a field of mist like Frontiers(His title is "Mist Dragon" afterall...).

White Fatalis in 4U should be able to use some of the powers Capcom claims it has to summon monsters liek Remobras to its aid, Be able to make a thunder shield so touching him will cause damage like Khezu does, be able to summon thunder on top of players directly, and be able to shock hunters who mount his head with insect staff to instantly get them off in rage, also his armor mode should be stay in 4U to maintain the challenge. As for MHFG to be able to compete with the other 2 Fatalis a G White Fatalis will need pinpoint aim of thunder on all hunters, that thunder shielding I said for 4U, the power to weaken weapons sharpness and kill bow coatings like some monsters, atomic thunder bomb without anywhere for players to hide and be forced to panick dive with timing should work most high rnak frontier players roll strait through atomic bombs like Orange Espinas so need to force panick dive just to kill these guys, thunder from hands and thunder beam from mouth at same time should work, and power to cover the area inclouds much like Ravi smoke screen.

Yama in MHFG Capcom all I ask is a new fighting area and a action packed fight where he actually uses his tentacles on his face and his arms to do more than spend 70% of the fight floating doing nothing. Please do not ruin this revamp you showed us a preview of!.

Lao: Well if Yama and White Fatalis gets a revamp, good old poor Lao is gonna get left behind as the least changing Elder Dragon in the series and that will be very sad. I hope for a Lao that actually targets hunters and stomps them to their doom and causes AOE attacks by stomping  and maybe even a player targeting horn attack and some tail attacks. I don't want much just a better fight.
