The Rath fight was literally an event fight and they did a better job taking the FFXIV monster and transplanting that into MHW than Rath into FFXIV simply because of the mechanics issues. FFXIV doesn't have the dodge-roll and that makes Rath a MESS. Point blank. So people found a way round it in CHEESING him with four tanks. Healers are almost useless outside of being around to cleanse. Outside of that, everyone else is just asking for cart-bait.

So no, Rath was not 'giving us what we asked for'... it was trading monsters in an event.
So people didn't ask for 4 man extremes? People didn't ask for random mechs in things? I seem to remember those things being asked.. so yes they actually did. And like I said it was a start. People cheesed it because they couldn't do it normally cause of a lack of skill. I ran into so many people who couldn't understand simple things like moving out the way. It was a mess. That fight showed just how bad the playerbase is at this game. It's pretty bad. I'm not saying it was perfect.. but it did give people things they wanted.
