User blog comment:BannedLagiacrus/Monster Appreciation Week: Rajang(4th Gen)/@comment-25119729-20151010203754

Rajang is pretty much a two-sided coin. You either love it or you hate it. And even if you one of these, there is still much about Rajang that makes you think that the other side is completly justified.

Rajangs damage output is pretty damn high, it is fast, and it has no problem getting accross the map over just snipe you from afar. Which brings me already to one of the most bs things about this monster: the laser beam. That shit hurts. ALOT. And the worst thing about this shit is, it has no clipping, so it goes through the entire map. Wtf Capcom. What masochist thought it would be a good idea to programm it that way? And since I'm already ranting, how about I tell you about the powered up arms? That thing is maybe not bs because the damage doesn't increase that much. But it is utter cheese. Rajangs arms cover like 90 % of the monster whenever it does something and you are not standing behind it. Really, only able to cut through them with purple sharpness on Highrank already? Have fun bouncing because you wanted to land one hit and get immedietly punsihed for it because it is Rajang you're hunting. And of course, the most famous example of Rajang not being any fun to hunt: farming for Rajang horns.

Rajang is not that bad of a monster and in a way I find it pretty cool actually. But when I'm fighting this thing appreciation turns intor hatred and butthurt because of how stupid the fight becomes because of these things. Whatever your opinion on Rajang is, one thing is undeniable: Rajang is a test of skill and those who best this beast are true hunters.
