User blog comment:BannedLagiacrus/Monster Appreciation Week: Monoblos(4th Gen)/@comment-26421638-20151121132520

The Legendary Monoblos... A very old Monster that Appeared in the Original Monster Hunter Game... After a Very Long Absence in the 3rd gen Games, Monoblos Returns in MH4U... And Returns Greatly!

I've always Liked its Design... A Wyvern with some traits in Common with Styracosaurus (Especially the head, of course)... And then I like its color Pattern... However it's clearly Noticeable that was Entirely Redesigned in 4tg Gen, looking way more aggressive...

I Freedom Unite Was Just a Diablos with Less HP and Less Harmful... Except for that "attacks" who growls and Charge faster... Was the Only "Exclusive" Monoblos Attack back in Older Games...

Now Returns in 4U... With a couple of Exclusive attacks, the Double Horn Thrust I a New Great Signature Move... And Now is Different from Its Cousin... The Diablos... Unlike the Double Horned Blos, Mono prefers to be more balanced with its attacks and perform Less time the Charge and the Dig Attack... As Mentioned before, it's Hilarious when it runs for the Entire area before to reach you to do a random attack, this move is a great chance to Attract Mono where you want... In a Trap? Close to a ledge to do a Jumping Attack? In any case is good...

The Equipment is quite interesting, the Armor is a Good Mid-tier armor both in High Rank or G Rank... The Equipment is not the best one, but both in Freedom 2/Unite and 4 Ultimate, I've used temporary its LS (Crimson Scythe?)... However, much Like Diablos, I Don't Like too much the Design of the G Rank Armor... Looks too... Big...

I Like Both of the "Blos", but I way Prefer Monoblos... Not because is Easier... Because I prefer it's design and it's funnier than its Cousin IMO Before MH4U, I've almost ignored this Monster... But in MH4U Because one of my Favorite Monsters!

The Only thing that I Dislike of this Monster is that is Not Available In Low Rank (Due to absence of Dunes in MH4) and the Taunt Animation, because it's stupid that knocks you even if the Tail is Severed...

Overall: Monoblos Returns In An Excellent Shape in this Game, Once Was Just the Bad Copy of Diablos, but now turned in a True Different Monster and became a Fun Monster to Hunt... Glad to See It Again, and I truly Hope that Returns in MHX... The Dunes Area, the Mono's Skull on Daimyo and its Presence in MH4U makes me to Believe that will Return In Monster Hunter X...
