User blog comment:Cottonmouth255/Discussion of the Week: Egg Quests/@comment-5043481-20140323145641

Egg quests have got to be the single most stressful thing in MH, but they are definately a good idea. They are very hard in a different way from the usual hunts.

Egg quests should definately be brought back in later games. They are an integral part of MH, making it what it is.

Change wise, I would make the parent take the egg back from the hunter, rather than run headfirst into the hunter breaking the egg. That would make more sense. Quite how a rathian would carry an egg I don't know. Another change I would make is to have G-rank ones. I don't know about 4th gen but in the other games egg quests have been mostly low rank. G rank ones would be especially hard. Maybe the egg would hatch out if you delivered it too slowly, and then the baby rath would bite your face off, resulting in an insta kill!
