Top 5 Worst Monster Hunter Monsters 

fun fact, khezu has no theme because monster themes start once the monster has spotted you and khezu is blind.

oh man that metallic khezu cover

I didn't know Khezu has a death metal band.

Me when clicking the video: "This guy better have khezu or he loses all credibility." *sees khezu* "Good stuff this guys legit."

You definitely tagged some of my hated monsters. One you missed though, IMO, is the Congalala. I hate that thing -_-

Yian Garuga annoys me so much to fight! Great video Taco :)

Blangonga? where is blangonga?! EVERYWHERE ON THE MAP!

Man everybody hates Khezu. I always loved it because it was so gross and creepy. And I'm a sucker for anything that shoots lightning, even if it is annoying.

"Why not Plesioth"

i loved ceadeus

Diablos? wtf this video is fake news

Did you heard Monster Hunter Story is coming to the West? :)

I like the Diablos. It's a Triceratops Dragon after all! When I first battled it I had a fun time and didn't half to use a mega potion!

Gypceros, Gypceros and ... Gypceros

Unpopular opinion: I think khezu is cute.

Giadrome is still the best Drome, but Baggi is still the best Jaggi clone.

bruh I loved fighting jhen it was so relaxing

Hip check Chicken Fish

5. Diablos 4. Cephalos/Cephadrome 3. Blangonga 2. Kirin 1. Plesioth

So, my top 5 least favorite and annoying monsters is 5. Teostra. So, that a cool and hard to fight beast, but i hate his charges. Realy. That is deadliest thing even a charges of any other monsters... 4. Khezu. Hate him because of his deadly and annoying "combo" when he paralize you and do charged jump on you after all. 3. Plesioth. That legged shark has badly hitboxes in 2gen and greatly triggered me by that in FreedomUnite. So,now he has normal hitboxes but not least annoyingly hipchecks... 2. Rajang. PLEASE, NO, JUST PLEASE... 1. All small monsters that can trigger you at all hunts. Like rhenoploses or bulfangos, or vespoids and bnahabras. These little devils make all to interrupting and ruining your hunt, and they do it!

Gold Rathian are the worst of Wyvern of them all.

the khezu metal was hilarious

my list 1.plesioth 2.khezu 3.diablos 4.gravios 5.rathalos

where is gypceros.

I hate every single Rathalos and Rathian because they are annoying as hell to fight, Barioth because the damn thing will not stop moving, Gigginox because that constant poison pisses me off, Diablos and Black Diablos are the most unholy things I have ever had to fight and finally, any monster that had to be fought underwater for more than 5 minutes

Mine would go: 1) Dreadking Rathalos. Either you try and fight him normally where he is in the air constantly giving you no chance to attack, or you use flashbombs which is a rather unsatisfying way to hunt imo 2) Yian Garuga. Just nothing but insta charges and poison tail swipes. Lovely little piece of artifical difficulty 3) Agnaktor. Bounces my weapons at the start of the fight, and he constantly tunnels underground 4) Shogun Ceanataur. Always doing those really fast swipes with the claws which wouldn't be so bad if they didn't bleed. Also the gimmi-a-hug attack doesn't have any sort of wind up which is not much fun. 5) Cephalos. Loooooooooooooots of running after it as it just lazily swims around. Also its tail swipe is really annoying. At least you only need to fight it a few times during the game.

Fun tip: If you block or adept dodge a Khezu shock attack, you can run INTO it while it's still shocking. For some reason once the shock attack lands in anyway on a hunter, it doesn't deliver anymore damage to that hunter specifically.

ah man, I always get pumped to see your videos! this one was great! thank you for the bonus round too. Nice

Nice FalKKonE music.

My personal list : 5 - Gravios 4 - Gravios 3 -Double Gravios quests 2 - Black Gravios 1 - Double black Gravios quests (ofc talking about MHFU and before, Gravios got easy after these games) oh yeah, and forgot about these : 6 - Ceanataur Shogun terra 7 - Ceanataur shogun

Gypceros for taking my goddamn lifepowders! Also Caeadus is one of my favorite fights. The music is AMAZING!

I love your videos game Taco, you have helped me out so many times with your monster hunter videos which are really helpful and hilarious at the same time. I've watched lots of your videos, I love it how you hate Diablos, gigantic shark dragons that flop around when you knock them over, and how you still can't quite grasp the mechanics of the pink rathian backflip. And seeing game tacos replace any and all background textures is HILARIOUS. 😄

i hate diablos with a burning passion. good list. i would also add pink rathian because im currently struggling to complete the "in the pink" quest. it is just stupidly powerful.

How could you hate jhen Morgan ceadeus and black diablos. khezu on the other hand especisly khezu I get rid of him

Khezu is one of my fave monsters. I fought it so much in FU, it was the first monster I ever really learned. Its lack of music is your first hint towards the fact that its blind. It gave me my fave Hammer in 4U, a hammer that screams when you use it. And the best thing, is the way it bugs out when its critically injured and stands still for an extended period befor running away.

So if you dont mind me asking, was it hard to play 4u? For me its not hard its just I cant get use to the camera controls

If you think fighting Kirin with duel blades is hard,try it with a hammer.

I haven't watched this yet but my best guess is that Plesioth is number 1

What armor set where you using during the fight with the Khezu?

About the kirin, the gear in most games gives you a good luck skill, for item rewards; so if you think about that part, maybe that's the "good fortune" they were going for

every fucking monster with the ungodly hip attack

For me, it's the 2nd Gen Elders. Fighting those things is my favorite way to torture myself, as I end up wanting to take all of my dwindling love for the series, and crush it with a steamroller, DIO style. I don't care that they're 3(4 if you count lunastra) different monsters, they all have similar designs and hit boxes, and excluding Chameleos, even share goddamn attacks, some of their worst ones too.

What is the drop rate of Gore Magala tail? I need to upgrade my Lemmundsilst

Tbh I love khezus armor, the design is one of my favorites and it does have music, it’s very low tho, it sounds like wind blowing after it screams and then some deep horns

I appreciate the Studiopolis music in the bonus round

Tidal Najarala. Cancer. I hate it so much lmao

Khezu is the monster I hate the most. It’s easy to kill, but it’s health is just too beefy. It’s scream is annoying unless you bring ear plugs.It is definitely a monster that needs a very large rework.

What the hell was that music during Khezu's segment? I know it was made by Falkkone but... Why...

I really hate everything that resembles a Blangonga

Let's see...off the top of my head... 5: Plesioth. Since I'm a total n00b at this, I didn't have the chance to encounter him in any of the earlier games, but I knew him by reputation when I purchased Tri Ultimate. I figured "as bad as this guy is, he'd probably be worse underwater". Hell no. Turns out, he's actually _easier_ to fight underwater. And he knows it too, since he never stays in the water for long enough. The ridiculous animations, the stupid stance, and of course that hipcheck. 4 Ultimate was pure catharsis. 4: Rathalos. I actually don't hate this monster. It's a wicked looking wyvern dragon and I respect that. And once you get used to it, it isn't so bad to fight. But whoever made it so you had to get its rarest drop _three times_ to advance the story in Tri was the real monster here. I must have killed thirty of the things before I finally got my hands on enough Rath marrow, and I've been hating it ever since. 3: Diablos. There has only ever been one instance where I ran out of time fighting a monster. And that was the Diablos fight in Tri. I love its roar--it sounds loud at any volume--but that's about it. If you don't have sonic bombs, or use them at the wrong time, you will never see it out of the sand, and when it is out of the sand, when you first fight it, you're probably using a weapon that's going to bounce off of roughly 90% of its body. Also, like Taco said, its armor looks dumb as hell. 2: Any variation of the Tigrex-style monster (except Nargacuga): I can honestly say that before this point, I never had the pleasure of fighting fast-forwarded footage of a laffy-taffy T-Rex. It's like trying to fight a chain flail stuck in an open, running washing machine; it's spinning constantly, you have no idea when to approach it, and you're too damn scared to anyway because stepping in for a second will see you sprawled out on the ground. And then Barioth comes along and, on top of all the stuff you have to worry about with Tigrex, it starts spitting out tornadoes so often you'd think the Tundra was a trailer park. And damnit, if I hate anything that makes me type so many analogies! Nargacuga, you get a pass, I'm willing to put up with you because you're awesome. 1. Rhenoplos: It's not a "monster" per-se, but I hate these things. They charge you out of nowhere and send you flying across the map, focus entirely on you when they get so much as stared at too hard by the monster you're fighting with, are the source of what must be the dumbest armor variants in the series (_especially_ the female variants) and literally look like the kind of turds you see when you've been eating bubblegum for a week straight after Halloween. The above monsters were annoying, but Rhenoplos is just _worthless_ in every respect.

i must know what recording software you used

I love how you used the Falkkone metal cover for the Khezu part 😂😂😂😂😂

argh plesy hipcheck :-:

I actually love Kirin. I recommend using GS when fighting him

I came back to rewatch this and I forgot I'm actually in this video around the Kirin part, and I brought dual blades that were barely even sharp enough to make a dent

Fighting Rathalos pre 4U be like: GET THE FUCK DOWN! I CAN'T REACH THAT HIGH!

I can understand the hate for diablos. It was my first large monster kill and after fighting so many of them they have become effortless. They had a pretty bad weakness to poison in 4U ,but im not sure if that was the inflated damage values or not. A monster truly worthy of hate it Tigrex. Damn things can burn in hell.

Has game taco even done a video about the monster hunter mod for Ark Survival Evolved?

I'm actually surprised Yian Garuga didn't make the list. Don't get me wrong, I personally love the monster. But after fighting it hundreds of times I can say without a doubt he is the spammiest piece of shit out there. He has two damaging statuses, the most kickass scream, and doesn't stop hitting you. His only redeeming factor is his low flinch threshold. Also Rajang... fuck rajang.

hey game toco do you still play monster hunter frontier?

My #1-5: Khezu

Duramboros. Nuff said.

This was a good list. One thing that annoys me about the series is monsters that every little thing they do knocks you down and does damage like rathian trampling you under her feet when she just turns around.

How dare you put King Great Jaggi anywhere near this list! In all honesty though great video and also Great Jaggi is probably in my top 20 maybe top 10 favorite monsters because of the Nostalgia fighting him on my MH4U demo on my 3ds whenever I was bored

Kushala Daora, where you at

So glad to see the Khezu death metal making an appearance.

According to your list, I really encourage you to try some bowgunning. Most of the listed monsters can be totally destroyed with pierce shots (ceadeus and goldbeard ceadeus, known for being huge HP bags can be soloed in under 5 minutes for example), or on the other hand can be hunted away from cheap attacks like plesioth hipchecks, kezhu or diablos This is what actually makes MH games so good. the fact that when you have trouble with a quest you can always change your equipement or try different strategies in order to hunt better, and actually changing from one weapon playstyle to another sometimes feels like playing a totally different game. That's a ton of fun.

I feel like the good luck from the Kirin comes in the form of Protection +10 on the S set. It didn't say how it would present it, but it did say "Good luck and fortune."

Tips for annoying monsters: Gypceros - Watch it's horn. If it's playing dead the horn will flash like a timer, provided you didn't break the horn. Khezu - Keep to the sides. Khezu doesn't possess a real attack that hits from the sides except the electric barrier and electric charge. Plesioth - Stay at the head or the back, and if it does the hip check go to the opposite side. Reduces the coverage you have to deal with.

Khezu is actually one of my FAVORITE monsters precisely for the reasons mentioned above. Bear with me. Let me explain, I started on MH Freedom Unite. As time went on, I really got the hang of the "adventure" that was monster hunter. I carved my way through the preys and dromes, made armor of them all. I ran into my first bird wyvern in the form of the chicken-like Kut-ku, then wiped the floor with the goofy congalala. I was a gun lancer and a long swordsman, and Up until this point, the game felt like an exhilarating adventure. Like I was an armored knight slaying fantastical beasts. Then came the Khezu. This was different. It's leech-like, slimy form, with a mouth riddled with disturbing fangs and a neck and tail that elongated to fit it's needs. The horrific way it just lay upside down menacingly, or crawled on the walls. This was not a beast. This was a monster. The sonic and flash bombs I had used to success before were useless. It's eyeless gaze holding you, making you wonder "is it looking at me?" Particularly, I LOVE that it has no music. It adds to the eerie atmosphere of the fight. You hear nothing but it's lumbered movements and ear shattering screams. Not roars, screams. Without the *privilege* of being seen meant that I didn't have invincible dodges I could depend on. This fight was when the tone of the game changed from an adventure, to a horror. I loved the Khezu because everything about it stayed true to its design and its purpose. To be a freak of nature. You're supposed to be uncomfortable. You're supposed to despise this creature. Fighting it was not heroic, it was a necessary extermination.... Also, I thought the assassin's creed-esque khezu armor was kinda cool :P

"Hip-check-chicken-fish" I will forever call it that.

Thank you for adding khezu in the list, I don't know why is that a "fan favorite"?.

I love that when khezu was bought up that someone mixed the khezu sounds with death metal making a death metal song 🤘🏻

Diablos wasn't so fun in FU, but in Tri he was my favorite monster to hunt. I was a lance user, and it felt like a real challenge soloing a duel Diablos quest. Was a lot of fun.

The last two I resonate with on a spiritual level. But if I may, Gigginox is just a non shocky Khezu, Yian Garuga is a chore to fight, Basarios is just a pain, and Shogun Ceanataur and Damyo Hermitaur are extremely painful (especially SC) throwaways that are required to advance in some cases.

See Diablos is actually one of my favourite monsters because I fought it in GRank in 4U A LOT to get its armour for my hammer. I got so adept at fighting it that now in World using a Charge Blade the entire fight is just "Lol, guard point". So satisfying.

I like khezu, although i understand the lack of music is frustrating and he could have more detail, but if you look at mho khezu it looks pretty rad when remade with more detail, like a decapitated dragon zombie lol.

First off, I enjoyed this list. You actually gave reasons why instead of saying "Stupid Design Bro!" and leaving at that. However I was dismayed at the site of Diablos on the list, as he is actually my all time favorite monster in the series. I love his look (mostly undisputed) his moves I find interesting and he is one tough SOB that hits hard, I like that. One other thing people say is that they hate his Scream! Again, shocked! His scream sends chills down my spin and gives me the biggest grin on my face I LOVE IT! It's actually the only scream/roar in the game that I like. So I guess to each their own... My list of most hated 5 - Gammoth - Simply boring fight, he is slow and barely moves. He easily predictable and I often win the fight with out taking a single hit. He also has a massive HP Bar which just drags the fight on. 4 - Blangonga - I don't the like the general speed and movement of him and his cousin Rajang. They are always flying around the map, the entire battle is just spend running from one side to the other over and over. Rajang at least goes Super Sayian I can give him a break. 3 - Congalala - I hate monkeys, this one throws poo and farts... Ok.... I'm breaking my own rule... "Stupid Design Bro"! 2 - Plesioth - Spends half the battle submerged in water where it can't be attacked (other than gunner? I'm not actually even sure) Fishing him out is cool, but only works when he doesn't see you so you need to finish him in one combat. HE IS SO FREAKEN TALL, with out areal style you're swinging past the knees. 1 - All Elder Dragon Battles - Any battle that uses Cannons / Dragonator / Harpoons are automatically my least favorite battle in the game. I avoid these like the plague, they are so boring! On top of that, they can be some of the longest battle in the game if you don't have a party that knows what they are doing. Simple put "Tedious"

I think you missed the point of Khezu not having a sound track. It was meant in my opinion to give you a sense of dread. A sense of a silent and unfeeling monster that can get you from any given Angel(within a cave of course). A monster reminiscent of the silent blind warrior. And come on that design is creepy more so then fear infusing . That scream is of almost pure horror. I agree the move set is pretty derpy but good for a first real challenge.

The problem with Khezu I had or rather the thing I hated about it was how they handled the lack of vision in regards to dodging since you could only superman-dive away when the Monster saw you and since Khezu is basically blind and you didn't get the icon indicating the monster is able to see you the only thing you could do is roll which wasn't as effective (experience comes from MHFU) That was so bs back then

Dalamadur for me. Friggin' eternal damage sponge that just stands there taking hits until he finally decides to attack, then he does one of his two 1-hit-ko moves that are not necessarily hard to avoid, but for some reason there's always SOMEONE who gets stomped. If you avoid it, then it's back to hitting him for a few minutes again until he decides to attack again. Comes packed with RNG meteor annoyance and an absolute nightmare of a camera. I also lost the count of the times I got my ass up that pillar and jumped on top of his head only to have SOMEBODY make him flinch right at the very last moment. He's the most un-fun monster for me BY FAR, and the only one I actively avoid fighting because of providing nothing but frustration. Pre-MH3 Plesioth is a fair contender though.

@Game Taco props to use using the metal version of kehzu xD

Wow, I never knew I was a rebel. Khezu is my favorite. I like his attacks, his armor and I really enjoy what they did to him in the future games. I remember in the original MH there was some gimmick to get him, so never got to fight him there.

I find Khezu incredible easy once you understand the following: - You must stay close to it for it to not trigger it's ranged crap - You must not over commit and learn the aoe lighting telegraph He is a pain to fight as a gunner or if you have a gunner on your group. I remember having trouble with Hyper Khezu, but now I can solo it without it touching me. I'm nothing special at the game, you just need to find out about this. I found all the other entries much worse than poor Khezu,

Oh god it's been like 4 years since I last played Monte hunter and I almost cri a little with this.

Awesome video and it was a blast hunting.

little note: I don't like the fight, not the monster in general. Personally: 5- Malfestio... because confusion. 4- Rajang... because to break its horn you need a lot of patience to wait the window to attack its face 3- Monoblos... I found its charges very frustating ... more than Diablos. 2-Bulldrome... because it is the only "big" monster to not have any breakable parts + its damned changes while you are fighting a deviant. 1- Brachydios ... because of its dammed tail

Came in the series only in MHW, so Bazelgeuse. It's a giant cockroach on wings, it comes to disturb your fights with other monsters (my highest count is 5 times for the same monster), it poops bombs, and when you actually fight it, it's a no brainer.

Although many people hate the underwater sections. I loved them, it added a much needed mixup at the time and was my favorite thing to do.

the khezu is like. why is it a thing?

I hadn't fought Khezu until Generations, but idk. I kinda like him. He's a very chill monster to fight for me, so he's really relaxing to farm.

Caedeus easily has one of the best themes throughout all of monster Hunter. Too bad his fight was kinda Garbo.

I quite like most of the monsters you don't lol. The ones I dislike are mainly congalala, cause it's just unnecessarily gross, though I like that he can buff himself by eating things. Apart from that, I just don't like it. I also don't like the various raptor-like dromes. There are just too many of them, and i would rather have other monsters. Chicken fish is also pretty horrible lol.

Odd, the Blos Family are all my favorite monsters. To each their own :D

Hey GameTaco thanks for your contribution to the community on Monster Hunter Amino

Kirin is also a yokai of the same name that breaths holy fire. it technically is a dragon but it, like the more western parts of Asia's legend is supposed to look like a giraffe.

What mh is at the kezu part???

Nice that you used Khezu' theme metal cover.

Nice vid. I've always hated Lagiacrus. I love his design and everything, but after all of MH3U, he felt like a huge let-down. Too easy to kill for me. Water combat wasn't even that bad to me.
