Random Elements in Fights

Actually, all of Rath's attacks in phase 1 & 2 sans fireballs can be dodged by just force hugging his left side.

I don't know why you bothered typing up all that, because I never said sitting by his side didn't work. That person phrased it in a way that made it seem like they were saying being off to the side was what worked.

I've done the fight before. I've done the EX version before. You really don't need to 'splain to me how the fight works when I wasn't showing lack of knowledge. You're basing your entire point of even replying to me on misinformation.

I mean, you did basically the same thing, instead of clarifying you just said I was wrong.

Well, I suppose two wrong don't make a right, huh? You said "Sit on side the entire fight" so I assumed you meant the side, not Rathalos's side. Notice how once you said you meant his side and not the side, I didn't continue arguing with you about it. Because there was nothing left to argue because it was a misunderstanding. Get it? Also I don't know how you expect me to clarify for you.

I also didn't type up a whole guide for the fight, I went off the information I had. I didn't make a long post telling you how to do it. They could've just left it at what you said when you clarified, instead of acting like I knew literally nothing about it and needed an explanation about the entirety of the mechanics.

There's clearly nothing to discuss here, so I don't know what the point is anymore. It could've literally just been "oh I thought you meant this, sorry", but I guess it's fine to gang up on someone because you weren't clear in what you meant and that's somehow my fault.

I went off the information I had.

And so did I; since I recognized what Valkyrie was referring to by 'side' and you were disagreeing, it was only natural to elaborate since it appeared you were misunderstanding; that's all, no need to get hostile over it. Regardless of how it was worded, standing off to the side of the arena -would- work anyway till phase 2 fireball. When you're far from him, literally the only physical attack he can hit you with is a charge, and that's insanely telegraphed and can be easily dodged by anyone who is paying attention in the slightest. Regardless if you're far or close, he still takes 2 seconds to wind up that charge; it's a great strategy for ranged & casters since it literally nullifies all attacks but the charge. I do it quite often when I'm playing caster in the fight.

Besides, I was also addressing your other point on that post of why people complained despite the simplicity of the fight. Not because of difficulty, but because of perceived difficulty when it actuality, the fight was ultra simple from day 1.
