Tigerstripe Zamtrios.......In other words another monster who has a defense mechanism that makes very little since ecologically.

How can a creature so big and heavy be able to constantly jump and jump and jump without passing out is beyond me and a follow up question if tigerstripe zamtrios actually are light how does thier beachball bellyslam hurt so much?

In my opinion if i dropped a big water balloon on any person (let alone a hunter) it wouldn't hurt at all, not nearly as much as the game makes out. Heck what if a Tigerstripe had to fend off a kill from a lets say a Rthian or other dune predator. Outside of ingame gameplay logic, that Zamtrios couldn't just jump up like that in the first place, and if anyone could factually prove me otherwise it still will have to deal with gravity and it's weight. So once it falls on that Rathian it would end up doing more damage to itself.

From now on i will do fact checks on each monster starting week after next to see how plausible their defense mechanisms and their behavior along with thier size are in the actual Monster Hunter World not in-game to see if it's possible to do what they do the way they do it.
