User blog comment:WolfQueen/Monster Appreciation Week: Stygian Zinogre/@comment-5172919-20151229214845

I like Styg, but not half as much as normal Zinogre. Both are total badasses but normal Zinogre is more of an upbeat fight. Styg always appears in this barren environment (taking the Tundra in 3U as an example) with darker colors and darker undertones (keyword: dark). No problem there and I can see why people aren't bothered by it, but, I prefer the more  fun  and  upbeat  fight of normal 'nogre than Mr. Hellhound.

In terms of difficulty, even in G Rank, Styg isn't much of a problem for me. He's just more... tedious. The depression quests that are his fights just make me want to stop playing for the day after I finish the task. Also, I never farm him for his mats, because none of his equipment really interests me, so I can't rate the grind. Normal 'nogre never takes me long and I can read him lie an ancient text, so his grind is usually really short.
