User blog comment:BannedLagiacrus/Monster Appreciation Week: Dreadking Rathalos/@comment-5167887-20170127103923

Dreadking must be one of my favorite deviants in Gens, at least that's how it is on paper. It knows how to become annoying, but overall, the fight is much more enjoyable than 4U's Azure or Silver (Or Gen's Hyper Silver... Ugh.)

I had a hard time learning it, but once it's done, Dreadking passes like a breeze. I know it gives a hard time to blademasters, but with Bow or Prowler, it's a really nice battle. And when I say Bow, I mean that I use Striker Bow, so Adept users might find it even easier.

Overall, its design is cool, sure, but the armor is the OPest thing in both design and skills we've seen in the series since 4U's Star Knight set. I don't like the helmet that much, but having a +3 Dreadking charm, i was allowed to swap it for something lighter and still have a full-fledged DK set. The weapons are okay i guess... I mean they're focused on fire element, so not sure if anything is better than its LBG for Fire Shots, but they're cool overall (At least they look so, given they're reskinned Rathalos stuff.)

My third favorite deviant, right after DQ Rathian and next week's MAW. (that's for Gen, because XX has Mizu deviant :p)
