User blog comment:BannedLagiacrus/Discussion of the Week: Monster Revamps/@comment-15446856-20170502201809

1: Starting with 3U means I only ever got to see the revamped versions of the monsters mentioned here. So I'll just say that the Fatalis and Cephadrome got the best revamps, Fatalis actually has a moveset now and Cephadrome will attack hunters instead of swimming around for 30+ minutes. 2: 4th Gen managed to completely ruin Gold Rathian, who was a average or mediocre hunt before, with just one addition, the homing aerial backflip, undoubtedly one of the most cheapest attacks in the whole series. Pink had it, but at least she doesn't also get an armoured body and high damage. I still refuse to attempt to hunt Gens Hyper Gold Rathian. Nightmarish damage, and the cheap god of attacks is a one shot? Not a chance I'm fighting something that awful. Also, Blangonga is a pain in the ass thanks its new attack. 3: Have no idea. 4: The Great Jaggi! It simply cannot lose its title of the punching bag! 5: Kirin is forever doomed to be the worst of the Elder Dragons. It cannot be improved unless the change the very design and mechanics of it. 6: Honestly, I prefer the 3rd Gen Zinogre to the one in 4th. To me, the 4th Gen one can easily get annoying, especially if it starts spamming its headbutt attack only to it not leading into anymore attacks. Why did they make it so reliant on that attack now, it very rarely ever starts its claw slams without it doing the headbutt first. And don't get me started if it is placed with another monster in an arena area... 7: Its hard to think of, but I'd say Fatalis should get a more intimidating appearance in main series like it did in Frontier. 8: I'd see Seregios gaining more attacks than just flinging scales around and occasionally using its other parts. Zinogre however I feel definitely needs a change up after having pretty much the same moveset since it began. Its time for Japan Fanbase's worshipped monster to get actual new attacks, not charged up claw slams or having it fling fulgerbugs from every major attack in G-rank. 9: No, BUT if done poorly it can certainly ruin the overall fight as I mentioned with the Gold Rathian and Blangonga. 10: Yian Kut-Ku was originally supposed to be the monster that showed you and prepared you for the Raths as they had very similar attacks,, but ever since MH4 it is now nothing but a old relic of the past. If it should be revamped, it should at least get better A.I and change its attacks to resemble that of the revamped Raths so it regains its old purpose. 11: I wait for the day until they bring the Fated Four into Frontier, just so I can see what they will do with them. Also a Interceptors Base Gogmazios would be interesting.

On a side note I'm surprised Savage Deviljho isn't on here, considering how different it is compared to its battle in 3rd Gen.
