User blog comment:Lord Loss/Discussion of the Week: More Elder Dragons/@comment-4009941-20140707164259

Jhen Mohran: I enjoyed my first Jhen fight, was like a faster Lao though thats kinda all he is to me by final part of the fight. Riding his back was cool and mining his back for ore I want then failing on purpose was kinda funny back in tri. Hes aggressive enough for me to say its a way better fight than Lao. Never faced his subspecies but from what I seen its quite a improvement making more of a challenge.

Ceadeus: Enjoyed every moment of this fight even the underwater part. Was something new and the music was incredible. Final fight theme was the best and a complete shock to hear. In fact him actually giving you full attention and being that size was a shocker to me and scared me at first. I never faced Gold Beard as I don't have 3U but I also heard 3U removed his Dragon Element attacks. I just have to say "Why?".

Alatreon: I used to be scared of you... MHP3rd and 3U made you softer I hear from everyone that played Tri though I hear the G one in 3U is still hard which is good!. I played the MHP3rd one so I know he was weaker trust me. As for how I judge him I actually think Dhisufiroa replaces his role of "Monster The Gods Fear" title and "Element Control Master" because Dhisu is more scary and even does weather control mid battle and has actually "Control" over his powers instead of being unstable so yeah even if Dhisu is a walking freak show isn't that what Alatreon should be also just by his descriptions?.(Will continue this when I get to Dhisu I guess)

Dire Miralis: Another Fatalis, this time in the water. To me its just another variation of Crimson Fatalis like the G Lava variation on Frontier. Though I guess thats not all true since he has a unique regeneration ability. Being able to be immortal from a heart that grows a whole new body is cool.

Daren Mohran: Jhen had a little bro? and I didn't get invited to his birthday?(Never faced him so.... NEXT!)

Dara Amadyura: Everything about him seems cool and decent except EVERY MH4 player tells me his fight sucks... as a frontier player I got told Ravi fight was more interesting like over and over but I can't really judge never facing Dara my self.

Shangaru Magaru: Finally after so long Elder Dragon that looks so interesting I just get excited for the fight just by looking at his unique 3rd pair of limbs(Wings)(And honestly I am also excited for Inagami on sight also but thats more recent). I wanna see this guy in action so badly just because he actually uses his 3rd pair of limbs to actually fight like hands though frontier has been doing some wing action(Kusha and Teo using wings to stab/slice/smash players) it can't compare to this guys arms!. This Virus he uses causes such a great impact on the land you just can't help but be interested in this guy and he seems based on the Myo Galuna the Elder Dragon who starts in a young form of darkness and then sheds into its adult form glowing with light just like Gore > Shangaru. Which made his cool levels just go up that much more for me if it having a zombie like virus wasn't cool enough if you seen those Ioprey go nuts and eat their own leader.

Kirin Subspecies: What? Ice? Kirin adapted VS Rajang? I don't know but Ice was a unexpected and good enough change up. Never faced him before my self but that color is awesome. I actually dunno his moveset but Kirin on MH4 gained frontier HC kirin improvements as I seen from normal MH4 Kirin so thats all I have to go by on moves but I seen a few scenes of ice action.

Rukodiora: Ugh why does everyone need this guy so much? You guuys that don't have frontier have no idea how much Ruko is hunted just for his LV3 Quality Gou Elder wings assuming you even know what that is... but still I hunted more than 400 Rukodiora most just from helping new guys now. Anyway onto the monster, even though I hunted so many he has managed to not even get old! his unique music and desighn has made him hard to get old along with his unique attacks though honestly I am so glad G-Rank Ruko = Rebidiora they are actually not even really separate monsters other than a mutation. He is a Thunder Element monster but instead of direct thunder he focuses thunder into powering electromagnetism which honestly is cool! he can push and pull you into his attacks or push you away when he flinches and make debree and rocks levitate.

Rebidiora: Hello G-Rank Ruko but with lots of more powerful improvements. From what I hear people who don't have frontier can barely tell the difference, but for someone that actually faced Ruko you know instant that as soon as you walk in that room hes in and you see metal and wood floating around him just from walking for the first time. You are in some deep trouble withouth maybe 1400+ def. Instant you see a blue light hover over your head and got low defense I know your dead just from watching you because that means he singled you out. His new attacks can actually be kill a entire group if they don't know whats coming in a single hit with range 3 times as wide as the monster not to mention free roaming thunder magnetic balls of doom that pick up and throw objects while Rebi is doing something else. Rebi is still just a Ruko but with more overall Thunder Element to the point he must release it or harm himself.

Shanthien: I don't know why people keep calling this guy OTT. Hes not even that high on the danger meter in my opinion until like LV250+. Yeah yeah he summons a storm and he uses 3 elements and flys but so does Alatreon isn't he a bit OTT then?. Anyway Shanthien performs his attacks with more style than complete danger to someone that had to face HC stuff to reach him hes not that bad. I honestly get sick of people calling something OTT without even facing it them selves and it kinda makes some of them just look bad or badly informed in some cases in fact I had more problem with my first Alatreon than my first Shanthien Repel. Anyway monster time, Shanthien without a doubt is one of the most stylish Elder Dragons there is even performing his attacks with uneeded dancing like movements even making Kirins cool walk(HC move only) look bad. People can say what they want but as someone that ACTUALLY faced him and knows him hes not OTT and hes not high on the danger meter to me either and thats that. As for his control of 3 elements honestly he barely has any control over fire other than his combo attack which is his highest form of fire control I can think of.

Dhuisufiroa/Disfiroa*Cough*: So anyway hello Dis the one monster who I actually can't stand to hunt more than any other but at the same time don't hate. And then comes the flood of "OTT" people I can't stand sometimes even though Disfiroa does the same thing as Alatreon except actually pulls off everything Alatreon was meant to do then gets hated for it....(*FacePalm*) make up your mind people. You asked for a better Alatreon that matchs his story well you got one!. Anyway his fight is actually so action packed and hard even in full groups sometimes that you can be on the edge of your seat from beggining to end because the start of the fight can 1 hit kill a lot of players! instantly making a quest fail! in less than 20 seconds if everyone falls for it. The fight I actually gives 2 thumbs up as the affects are not just for looks but to scare the mess out of you because they can actually ALL hit you and maybe kill you making this fight a horror show as you spamm the mess out of the guts skill barely making it past as your group if they had no guts likely died 23 times in the same fight but lived by guts skill as you panick running surround by ice spikes sprouting around you from him targeting someone else. The music as crazy as the monster him self, knowing there is nowere to run thats safe but farcaster back to camp, Dhisu being able to hit you form the complete other side of the area just by roaring a cammand for a homing fireball to hit you from the sky by blowing its breath into the air. This flying freak show may be a freak show but he is no joke and he is OTT and he is gonna throw it in your face because the people did ask for a better Alatreon and he is here to serve that wish with a burning chin and a frozen forehead. Anyway Monster wise he looks weird but that because of how he controls his powers as you see his back is white from controling ice but his belly is burning red sometimes with fire on it and this must be given attention when fighting him using these elements if your trying to element him out.

Favorite(s): In this list its hard. Ceadues, Shanthien, Rebi and maybe Shangura(Never faced him).

Least Favorite: Dire Miralis. Sorry but not only have I not faced you, but you don't interest me on top of that to fight. He just seems to be another type of Crimson Fatalis with weird wings that make meteor summoning more physical than mystical like Crimsons unexplained summoning.

Back in Future: All except Daren(Why are you here?) and Alatreon(Sorry I fell Dhisu replaced Alatreon in more ways than 1)

Improve Lest Favorite: Dire Miralis maybe if you was a bit more unique than you are now like maybe faster and had more advanced moves or just less Fatalis like, add some volcanic digging attacks, wings able to fold a bit to change positions and actually swimming more with swimming attacks fast enough to make Lagiacrus look bad would be good. You just are not matching up to your titles as a island sinker unless you like take your time over 20 years which is kinda lame. Show me some destruction! your Black Fatalis bro destroyed a entire capital city with no survivers or people left to even tell what happened it just went off the map. Show me some Island sinking power!.
