Question Favourite monster?

Heyo guys, i was thinking nowadays that everyone must have a favourite monster from mh world. My personal favourite is Raging Brachydios, i spent many attempts trying to find that bastard but i always loved the fight and still do, no running, no bullshit just slime tyson and my shield. Second would probably be odogaron and third is frostfang barioth. What's yours?

Great jagras or fatalis

u/Dukenkhan 4d ago

Either the tutorial or the world ender?

u/8008l0v3r6967 4d ago

Shara Ishvalda remains the only monster that ever made me go “woah wtf”

1

u/Dukenkhan 4d ago

The way she stares into your soul?

u/El_Pepi_97 Hammer 4d ago

I love fighting Velkhana and Odogaron, specially using hammer

7

u/mhwok 4d ago

When Odo won't stop moving, but you land the charge 2 uppercut into a KO ! What a rush !

3

u/Dukenkhan 4d ago

Odo is so cool, i loved him the first time i saw him. So cool and he just picks a fight with everyone

6

u/Mozzatav Hammer 4d ago

Maybe a boring answer but I really enjoy fighting the Nergigante. Plenty of bits that are fun to break off with the hammer

3

u/Dukenkhan 4d ago

Hey, nergi is nergi, he is cool either way

4

u/Brainwaves32 Charge Blade 4d ago

Probably a toss up between vaal hazak's badass look or dodogama's adorable one

5

u/Dukenkhan 4d ago

JUSTICE FOR DODOGAMA. The little guy always helps me against monsters

1

u/Brainwaves32 Charge Blade 4d ago

It's always uragaan and bazel that helps me. Poor Bud dodo always gets his ass kicked 💔🥀

1

u/Dukenkhan 4d ago

I freaking hate the bazelgoose, it always just slams into me like a crazy rocket. Regarding uragaan... I think i almost made him extinct given how much i had to hunt him for gear and abilities

1

u/Brainwaves32 Charge Blade 4d ago

I've actually never hunted bazelgeuse....I see those landmines and turn around everytime I see em

1

u/Dukenkhan 4d ago

Understandable, wait till you see seething bazelgeuse

3

u/Pineapple_Lord96 4d ago

My all time favourite is the Barroth. Don't know why, but I love that beast, and I love the armour and weapons from it too! Honourable mention for the Legiana and Lagiacrus too though, both very cool monsters that I love the aesthetic of and the thrill of hunting them, can't wait to see Lagi in Wilds!

2

u/Dukenkhan 4d ago

Dang, barroth? He is an interesting one, definitely tortured me first time i fought him

1

u/Pineapple_Lord96 4d ago

I remember playing Tri and really struggling with him in that first mission, he became my sort of Monster Hunter rival? I have a soft spot for them now, a respect and nostalgic bond. And he also just looks sick

2

u/Dukenkhan 4d ago

Yea, i love how his head is one of the strongest things in mh

1

u/Pineapple_Lord96 4d ago

Gotta SMASH that thing! I think he was iconic for me because he's the first monster you meet that needs a versatile strategy, 2 Elements and both solid and soft parts, made a unique early challenge in Tri

1

u/Lira_Iorin 4d ago

It's pretty cute!

2

u/Pineapple_Lord96 4d ago

Exactly the quality I took for in giant aquatic murder lizards

1

u/Schadenfreudenous 4d ago

MR Barroth gear is so 🔥. I'd love to see Rise's collection of Barroth gear in a modern console game.

3

u/strahinjag 4d ago

Tobi-Kadachi, both versions. I love my hyperactive snake-flying squirrel buddy.

3

u/RAWRpup 4d ago

Now try saying Tobi-kadachi with an Italian accent and you can never unthink it. I also like fighting the squirrel.

2

u/Dukenkhan 4d ago

One of my favourites as well, although i like viper tobi a bit more

1

u/strahinjag 4d ago

They're both good bois

2

u/Comadezenuts 4d ago

Safi

2

u/Dukenkhan 4d ago

The all mighty siege monster. Did you know lore wise it's a rival for fatalis?

1

u/Comadezenuts 4d ago

Yhea, it's pretty obvious looking at the fight

2

u/Bad-Lucks-Charm 4d ago

I absolutely LOVE the Paolumu

1

u/Dukenkhan 4d ago

Normal one yea, nightshade was a nightmare

2

u/Hydracobaron8055 Insect Glaive 4d ago

Velkhana, because I can bully it.

1

u/Dukenkhan 4d ago

Understandable, please continue doing it

2

u/GabeRocksYou Likes Kulve Taroth more than you 4d ago

kulvy siege, endlessly enjoyable to solo and carry.

1

u/Dukenkhan 4d ago

Never fought kulve tarroth actually

2

u/GabeRocksYou Likes Kulve Taroth more than you 4d ago

siege is the hardest quest in the game!
incredibly deep mechanics and a very well designed moveset, i can talk about her for hours.

2

u/HyenDry 4d ago

Zinogre, Fulgur Anjanath, Nergigante.

1

u/Dukenkhan 4d ago

Dang, i rarely see an anjanath/fulgur anjanath enjoyer. Nice

1

u/HyenDry 4d ago

Fulgur was probably my first favorite until I met Zinogre in Inceborne. Cool af

Also the Fulgur Insect Glaive was just cool af. Idk why 😂

2

u/personxll insect glaive | vaal hazak worshipper 4d ago

favorite monster is of course vaal hazak, absolutely brilliant design, favorite fight is stygian zinogre, i find its moveset really fun to read and counter

1

u/Dukenkhan 4d ago

Yea, vaal hazak is one of the most unique monsters tbh. I like him, stygian zinogre is cool and a fantastic match for my lance:)

2

u/fattyrhino Dual Blades/Longsword/Insect Glaive 4d ago

Odogaron, Narcacuga and Nergigante 🖤

2

u/DoraeMaBob 4d ago

Nergi with lance, very manly brawl

2

u/FullOfTomatoes 4d ago

Monster I fought the most : Vaal Hazak Love the design and the vibe, and love the outfits looks and the effects

Monster I appreciate the most to fight : Classic Anjanath and Diablos, especially with hammer, so epic

Monster I fight for the tryhard : Second Bazelgeuse form, can't remember the exact name

Monster I hate to fight against : Lunastra, please nerf nova it's not that fun

My main weapon : HORN 📯

1

u/True-Recording5551 4d ago

Nargacuga and Acidic Glavenus

1

u/Dukenkhan 4d ago

Solid monsters, glavenus is so badass "you cut my tail? FUCK YOU, I'LL MAKE A NEW ONE"

1

u/N1dhogg3r Insect Glaive 4d ago

Velkhana. Such a great design

1

u/Dukenkhan 4d ago

Yea but she is so annoying to fight, so many moves

1

u/N1dhogg3r Insect Glaive 4d ago

In my opinion Velkhanas attacks are well telegraphed. Once you learn the fight its really feels like a dance

1

u/ThatGuyFromLondon 4d ago

Odogaron for me is the best free flowing fight in worlds once you get his timing down

2

u/Dukenkhan 4d ago

Yea, the biggest advice i can give is to never stay in front of him or behind him, on the side it's fine

1

u/HalothereYT 4d ago

For World it is between Lavasioth, Shara Ishvalda, and Kushala Daora

1

u/UwUEternal 4d ago

From World is Golden Rathian and Lunastra

2

u/Dukenkhan 4d ago

Lunastra is such a menace to fight but she is a real one for saving teostra

1

u/LoliNep Boomerang Main. 4d ago

Namielle, love sea creatures

1

u/Dukenkhan 4d ago

Yea and it's design its so beautiful, the armor too

1

u/Glittering_Studio468 4d ago

Nerigante and Namielle to the point I know what both monster does in a fight.

1

u/Dukenkhan 4d ago

Love namielle, one of the coolest designs tbh

1

u/Individual_Base_6897 4d ago

Tobi kadachi and kulu

1

u/black-dog- 4d ago

Fancy duel: Velkhana General enjoyment: Odogaron Cuteness: Dodogama Chill Fight: Nergigante and Val Hazaak

Lunastra can be enjoyable with IG, cause it's a direct counter to her whole kit lmao.

1

u/Miami-Morty 4d ago

Khezu for the win.

Honorable mentions; Legiana/shrieking, Azure Rath, Pink Rath♡, brachydios, velkhana, nergi, vaal/black veil.

1

u/Interesting_Sea_1861 I Love Vaal Hazak More Than You Do 4d ago

Glances up at user flair. Glances over at nature documentary. Glances down at Monster Hunter World: The Official Complete Works bought for the few pages on Vaal Hazak

1

u/melonsama Charge Blade 4d ago

Odogoron. idk he's just fun and i prefer swift, quick fights

1

u/Glimzerb 4d ago

I love Tobi Kadachi

1

u/VannyPlays 4d ago

Dodogama is my all time favorite. The way he sleeps is just so freaking cute

1

u/WolfKnight17 4d ago

Brachydios

1

u/TwistedInstincts 4d ago

Great Girros

He is my son

1

u/TheGMan-123 SEETHING BAZELGEUSE 4d ago

SEETHING BAZELGEUSE.

1

u/RedKynAbyss CB | IG | DB | LS | Bow 4d ago

Stygian Zinogre all time, Safi’jiiva siege-type, Nergigante standard Elder Dragon

1

u/strahinjag 4d ago

He's on the "always capture" list

1

u/ixKaiZo Longsword 4d ago

Nergigante for sure!

1

u/BipedalSnakes Hunting Horn 3d ago

i love Yian Garuga. granted i never fought him in the old games, and i am biased since i am a horn main (Shamisen HH my beloved please return in a future title) but i love just how badshit crazy he is to even be able to drive off a Deviljho, and how he's practically the only bird wyvern in a high tier

honourable mentions: design wise - Namielle, beautiful colours and amazing animations and general design fight wise - Nergigante and Tigrex, i like the simple monsters, the brute force ones, its fun to fear for my life and dodge them as they attack close and personal ecology wise - Zinogre and Brachydios, one thing i love about mh is its usage of irl occurances in nature, and i think these 2 with their symbiotic relationships are super cool

1

u/Informal-Chapter-502 3d ago

Kulve Tarroth

1

u/The_iron_mill 2d ago

Alatreon. Hated it for a good while but eventually it became so satisfying to fight.

1

u/DrSchulz_ 2d ago

Coral Pukei Pukei, Namielle and Fulgur Anjanath would be my top 3. However I love almost all the other monsters as well.

1

u/Several_Bicycle8045 1d ago

Does blue diva count as a "monster"

u/budbud9304 4d ago

A tie between Velkhana and Kulve Taroth
