Design wise, is a really great monster, I love his almost holy appearance (that is really fitting because of the mythological creature he's based on, the Qilin/Kirin). But it's fight is the more annoying on the entire game, he stuns you way too easily (and stun is way too cheap and annoying in this game), and if he doesn't do that he paralyzes you. Also, when he's not busy spamming lightnings he moves all around the place really fast, forcing me to chase him around (and for a longsword user like me this means a spirit gauge waste), which pisses me off a little bit, I find this worse than the constant flying of certain monsters
