User blog comment:BannedLagiacrus/Monster Appreciation Week: Fatalis (4th Gen)/@comment-16331478-20160220133702

4th gen Fatalis are cool. I don't really feel like they're anything special and they aren't even that difficult but they're good monsters. Armors are meh, some weapons are among the best in the category, but other weapons can also be pretty bad. Now, let's tackle each one singularly.

Fatalis

A really generic-looking dragon, but the fight itself isn't that bad. In high rank it was sure harder than Crimson, but that changes in G rank due to the massive buff Crimson gets. The body slams sure are terrifying when you realize you're gonna get hit though. I like this guy's GS and CB are pretty good, everything else kinda gets outdone by Shagaru if you ask me.

Crimson Fatalis

This guy was really underwhelming in High rank, all it did was sit still and spam meteors, making it super easy to level 3 charge it to death with a GS. When it gets to the G rank variant though, this guy takes the cake as the hardest of the trio. Mostly because of the fact it doesn't sit still spamming meteors anymore, so it can use the shitty Ingle Isle area to its advantage. This guy has one of the few Wide lv5 GLs in the game, but it's unfortunately plagued by pretty bad sharpness. I do love the Hammer though, and the GX armor set has some nice skills.

White Fatalis

The easiest, but also most fun of them all. This guy benefits from having hitboxes miles above the other Fatalis. Getting hit by a hind leg finally doesn't deal the full Snap 'n' Drag damage. Armor mode gets kind of annoying, but that's nothing a mountstick or a GS lv3 charge can't solve. This guy has an ok armor with good skills and shitty design, and the best LBG in the game. And the music theme is pretty kick-ass too, can't forget that.

Dire Miralis (?)

I like this guy, I love its theme, and the underwater fighting was put to extremely good use in its fight. A way better final urgent than Gogmazios in my opinion. I just wanted to say that it's a really well-made monster for something that was just a prototype of the 4th gen Fatalis.
