While I can see that point, multiplayer exclusive monsters aren't new either.

Jhen Mohran, Dalamadur, Gogmazios and Nakarkos were all introduced as multiplayer exclusives with only Jhen getting an offline scaled quest.

And I didn't have issues with Ancient when I fought it unlike Extremoth who I'm not even going to attempt anymore before I get some good Master rank gear cause I'm fed up with it.
