Why mount from Rathalos EX??

[Sigma-Astra]

I was hype for Monster Hunter World come in ffxiv.

Enjoyed new mount. When see in-game and very disappointed.

Scales+ from extreme for Rathalos mount.

Since I don't person for extreme. I alwasy wanted this mount so bad....
I'm very scary in extreme.... Thank you SE for bad idea.

First off, why on earth would you think it would drop from Normal? That would actually decrease the mounts overall value if everyone could just stroll into the normal mode and walk off with it afterwards. If you want something unique and special, then put in the same amount of time and effort like the rest of us please.

Secondly, where have you been for the entirety of EX trial rewards? The mounts have ALWAYS dropped from their EX versions and not the normal versions. Why should Rath EX be any different? It's an incentive to do the harder trial, it's like the doorbusters you see in department stores to snag customers through their doors right away. Furthermore, have you made previous threads where you state that the dog dropping from Tsuki EX was unfair? If not and if you say that you're perfectly okay with the standards that SE set for those, then you're being an entitled hypocrite.

This reminds me of those players who would complain that Ixion is so hard to get, as of now, when I was farming/camping him upon Stormblood's release with the Tommy Lee Jones look of "Guys...please".

I want to live in whatever world you live in. People get kicked or someone votes to disband after one wipe even in easy content. If all people were really that nice no one would be afraid to play with strangers.

But I was also disappointed that the mount is only from doing the EX version. My ilevel isn't anywhere near high enough because I deliberately don't play all the time and try to get the highest ilevel, so I can't even get in to begin with. I was looking forward to the event because I like Monster Hunter, but I was extremely disappointed that the mount is locked behind EX and there's no other way to get it.

Also: if it's supposed to be based off the way MH fights are, why are 8 and 4 people needed to do it? I solo'd all monsters up to the end of the story in MHWorld. Why can't I do that here too?

....Just get a higher ilvl then...? I mean, it's not exactly hard nor is it the game's fault that you can't give yourself the motivation or ambition to pursue a higher ilvl to get something you want. They'd never make an EX fight solo and even when we do have "solo" instances, we have NPC's to heal/help us. Aside from the NPC's, the health chunks and mechanics would have to be centered around you and NPC's and be somewhat less challenging to do simply because of the AI's limitations of being smart. A solo Rath EX would be not only pointless with the set ilvl that it is right now, but utterly devoid of challenge and substance. So, that's why it's not a solo.

Do the work and you'll get the mount.
