Eww... Dear Amatsu... Why this Monster exists? I Hate Najarala and I usually hate Water Element Monsters... And what we have there? A Najarala who Uses Water Element? I'm forced to hate this Monster... Anyways... Let's proceed with the MAW. (S**tstorm incoming!)

The only thing that I Really like of Najarala is the Design, and Tidal is only Better! Honestly, This Blue Najarala looks really good! And that's the end of the good sided of this Monster...

The Fight is Probably one of the Most Annoying Monster that I've faced in all of my MH Carrer... It continues to harm and trip you by simply moving... And that's Ridiculous... It's weird that a Monster like Gogmazios doesn't harm you with its steps while Naja/Tidal Naja destroy you only with its movements. But now let's focus on Tidal Najarala's main feature... The Bouncing Water Spit Attack... It could be worse... I admit... Even if you have -20 of Water Res this attack doesn't make a Great Damage to you... And... Since the Bouncing Water is Aimed, could be easier but also more difficult to evade it depending on the situation. Since is aimed you already now that sooner or later, the Water Ball will bounce trough the scales and going straight exactly on your "spine", which makes this attack, surprisingly, quite predictable... Unless if you're accidentally close at one of the scales who Naja have thrown before, in this situation isn't easy at all to evade it. But the real problem of the Bouncing Water Ball is that Tidal Najarala Spams this attack, you must to be ready not only to Evade the Scales and its devastating "Movements", but you must keep an Eye to the Bouncing Water Ball too! Always... Always... And... Always... This makes the Battle with this Monster Really Stressful! Otherwise is Just a Bigger Najarala... And that's all... Yeah, unlike Regular Najarala, Tidal Naja have a soft Tail tip making easier to break it and a new safe spot where to strike your attacks.

Once I taught that couldn't existing something worse of this Monster, and then... While I was doing some G3 Level Quest... It appears the one of the worst quest that I've ever seen... "Hunt 1 (Apex) Tidal Najarala"... Ok... Let's Recap the Situation... This is Pretty much Self-Explanatory...
 * I Hate Najarala
 * I (usually) Hate Water Element
 * I (usually) Hate most of the Subspecies
 * I Hate Apex Status

The Equipment is... Meh... The Weapons looks good, but I think that we have better water elements Weapons... Same For the Armor, it looks Good except for the Male Gunner Armor... But in terms of Skill is almost useless...

Overall: I Cannot like a Water-Based Subspecies based on a Monster who I already Hate for itself... Yeah, I love the Design, but this doesn't change my, bad, opinion on this Monster... While the Water Ball attack isn't a big problem for itself, the Constant spam of this attack made by an Irritating Monster makes this Monster one of the Most stressful experiences for me... And then this Monster can also be encountered with the Apex Status! That's a big NO for me! At least it's Italian Name (Abyssal Najarala, if translated) it's really great!
