Eh, I can see why this fight is hard for some people, and server ticks don't help. Plenty of times I know I've dodged the charge or poison claw and hitboxes betray me, but that happens all the time in MHW. In MHW though, a claw swoop doesn't chunk me for 90% of my health (not to mention I can block it...) Even G-rank Raths don't do that in the older games, so I think he does hit a wee too hard on non-tanks.

On the other hand, maybe this illustrates how broken tanks are in this game. Doing 80% the damage of a dps in exchange for being able to take 3-4 of those hits in a row on a fight with a lenient midpoint enrage and no actual enrage? I'd like to see 4 healers do it at min ilvl.

The fight will only get easier as people get gear and bigger health pools though, and he's not going anywhere at least.
