User blog comment:BannedLagiacrus/Monster Appreciation Week: Gravios(4th Gen)/@comment-4702773-20150727205701

Gravios has become much more enjoyable in 4U. I admit that less armor is kind of strange given the armor strength of Basarios, but I think it had to be done. Veterans of MHFU remember that the only good way to fight a Gravios was to bomb his chest and prey it exposed the weakspot. Otherwise it was just bashing your chipped weapon against his chestplate until it broke. Now, at least his feet have a bit less armor, which kinda makes sense. I really like the design. Many people mentioned the bone-like appearance, and I agree. The gas attacks keep you on your toes, and the lasers are lasers. Can't argue with lasers. Like any massive monster, he is very week to mounting. One cool thing is that he has two mounting places: his back and his chest. The flailing animation that happens when you mount his chest is really pitiful looking, the gigantic Gravios wiggling in futility until it goes limp, exhausted. I don't use the weapons.. And the only cool thing about the armor is that the G gunner's left side arm and shoulder make it look like a Gravios head. Other than that, he's just another quest reward. Nothing too difficult.. until you try a G rank Black Gravios....
