Akantor.. Have you ever found yourself wondering, "Gee Wizz, I really LOVE fighting Tigrex so much.. but it's just too small. And he doesn't hit hard enough when enraged. Oh, and the roar should be concentrated, inflict dragonblight (cuz logic) and should 1HKO almost everybody". Well, if you're that crazy son of a Jaggia, then Akantor is the monster for you!

I do enjoy Akantor fights to some degree, but lose tends to come down to either a really stupid mistake or a really bullshit combo on Akantor's part. The monster itself is cool. Giant, spikey Tigrex in essence. Moves slower, but the hitbox is through the roof and the power of each strike is practically on the moon. The armor is pretty good. Decent design and decent skills. The weapons are interesting. A lot of power, but I think the highest natural sharpness is green, and not much of it. Sharpness +1 or Minds Eye are a must. And don't even get me started on that conquest sphere.
