Third DOTW in a row about something that I really hate... Well, let's start... But I cannot say nice things about it...

Also, No Royal Ludroth or Dire Miralis in the list? And don't forget Epioth!

1) I Don't only hate Underwater, I hate Water in general in every single videogame and even IRL! (I'm a little bit Hydrophobic) the reasons why I hate Underwater in MH are:
 * Terrible Camera, it was annoying more than 2nd Gen Camera.
 * Low Mobility, your movements were too slow compared with UW Monsters.
 * No Panic Dive, it was necessary to evade some of Lagiacrus or Ceadeus Attacks.
 * Unbalanced Weapons, some of them works fine and others don't.
 * UW Monsters were boring, most of them shares a lot of attacks with each other give the feeling to play with MH1 instead.
 * Unhelpful hitboxes, not that terrible TBH, but were worse than the others.
 * Other reasona than ATM I cannot remember.

2) Absolutely not, seeing what they did with Lao-Shan, I'm afraid that if returns, will be not fixed too much... Also they need to improve other things first...

3) Once I had a good experience with Lance against Royal Ludroth, but nothing else.

4) Everything that cannot Guard, because Guard was nearly a must for UW.

5) Mounting! And everything releated with Mounting like IG or Aerial just for fun...

6) Plesioth, it was the less boring Monster to hunt UW and way better than in Land, but far Away to be considered "Good".

7) CEAAAADEUSSSS!! Let's say that it tried to end my MH Carrer and it almost made it. I hate its design, I hate it moves, its area, its music... Everything except for its bow...

8) The best way to improve it is to keep it away from the series ;) JK JK. There are a Lot of things that should be changed, but the most important is to improve the mobility in general.

9) Even with UW Deserted Island still remains one on my favorite Areas, even if is quite simple. Tained Sea looks great too!

10) Under... Water... Ruins... The names includes exactly the thing that I hate and Ceadeus Home is not my Home.
