User blog comment:BannedLagiacrus/Monster Appreciation Week: Plum Daimyo Hermitaur (4th Gen)/@comment-26421638-20160521085716

Is... Is hard to believe that I've joined this Wiki exactly one year ago, is true... Time flies... Ugh! Never Mind... Time to talk about of Daimyo's Subpecies: Plum Daimyo Hermitaur (AKA Purple Daimyo Hermitaur)! I remember that once was a Nightmare in MHFU... Its returns in MH4U with an interesting Revamp... It's an OK Subspecies.

The Design is the Best part of this Monster, Purple Shell, Different color pattern but the Best thing is the Diablos Skull that Replaces the Monoblos' one from the Standard Counterpart... That's a nice touch... However I'm curious of what could be a Plum Daimyo Hermitaur with a White Monoblos Skull instead... As I mentioned in a different comment, The Frenzied Plum Daimyo look great, BTW...

I don't want to spend too much words about MHFU's Plum Daimyo... Was a Nightmare... That's all...

MH4U Daimyo have a couple of new tricks... Which are an interesting addition and making it a bit more original compared to the MHFU one... However, for some reason, I find Plum Daimyo easier from the Standard one, for others more difficult... In fact I don't know who is the most difficult amount the two Carapaceons... Even if is not the Most Original Subspecies, I enjoy fighting it.

The Equipment isn't exactly the best thing of this Monster... They aren't completely useless, but they are pretty much forgettable... The Weapons aren't exactly good looking and they aren't the Best water element Weapon available... And the Armor only offers Skills who I don't like or I'm not interested... And... I'm not a great fan of the Football Player-Like Armor.

Overall: An OK Subspecies... While isn't the most Original Subspecies, it works well both in terms of design and fight, while the Equipment, sadly, is a NO for me. However... If I want to be onest, I'm not really attached to Plum Daimyo, while I would like to see the standard Daimyo in every single MH Game, I wouldn't mind if its Subspecies won't appear in a future MH Game...
