Why mount from Rathalos EX??

[Doozer]

No ones gonna shout at you for dying.

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?

The fight will become trivial once the next set of gear raises everyone's HP well above 40k.

It's an interesting fight for sure, since the boss has no "tells" and you have to watch his movements -- like a real hunter taking down its larger prey.

Once again... I don't want ppl to be misinformed here.

Rathalos absolutely DOES have "tells" or telegraphs for his attacks, you have to pay attention to his posture and movements which clearly indicate what attack he is going to do next. What he lacks are AoE markers... which technically isn't a new a concept for this game either. The manticore/diresaur type monsters have attacks without markers which are instead telegraphed by posture (Ganderwa, Stone Vigil (Hard) 3rd Boss, Manticores in HoH, etc.) and the demon monkey things (Angada) as well.

You could always wait, and then do it very overgeared later and unsynched like Derio has said
As for only be from the Ex version, mounts have always come from that so why change it now.
I do not see why it should drop from the normal version

Come on...

I find mount and armor set from it very ugly. So there is no incentive for me to even run it. To me it just another waste of space that they could used to add more character options and better looking glamour items.

[Nihility]

he has very few attacks to remember and they are all very simple, just like monster hunter
if you don't want to put any effort into something that seems more like your bad job than the creators.
the fight is a blast imo, ill be a bit sad once i have no reason to do it anymore. Should get some more monster hunter fights...

That said we have the giant mess of Pagos to complain about, leave the poor rath alone

Don't see why you'd be scared or unwilling to enter in that fight. It's not like the scripted fights we have thus far, so most typical XIV people struggle with it, and those from MHW generally find it easy. Personally I've hated doing extreme, for reasons which I won't discuss but I can say as my 2nd extreme this expansion, you really are missing out by not dipping your toes in it at least. Worst case scenario you can do what everyone else does - Cheeses the fight with 3 Tanks, 1 Healer, or 4 Tanks.

And those complaining, either get hard at work, or simply go back to it at a later time. It isn't like this content will vanish. It's a permanent addition. Albeit I personally do think they should've had the mount available in Normal, or Extreme mode, with normal mode requiring many more scales than extreme. Just my input though.

The fight will become trivial once the next set of gear raises everyone's HP well above 40k.

He can hit and kill dps/healers with 45k+ Hp with some of his moves. Second phase rush, stuns you then poison, only a healer or maybe a dps that knows erase can help you. If it's the healer you're dead. Yet he hits tanks for maybe 20k or less. I'm doing multiple runs today, and the tank literally ignores his rushes until there's stunlocks. Meanwhile just one rush murders me and the dps.

It's like literally you cannot make a single mistake. I said in another thread I just plan on clearing it once and forgetting about it; doing it 50+ times is absurd.
