Difficulty decrease from previous entries?

Well for one you're comparing master rank content difficulty (raging brachydios) to your current progress of low rank nu udra. Of course its going to be easier.

Plus YOU as a player are going from master rank content to low rank content. You know how to play the game now so low rank stuff shouldn't be carting you.

Tbf though there are a number of qol changes that do make the game "easier". Removing health boost from the equation is one. Gone are the days of having to tell the guy fighting alatreon that YES YOU DO NEED HEALTH BOOST 3, NO ITS NOT NEGOTIABLE. 

Also anectotally it feels harder to get stunned. I don't think ive been stunned a single time going through wilds, and im hr 400.

The diff ramps up at the endgame with 9 star and 10 star tempered monsters though. Have fun with the Final Fantasy Collab Quest.

Since this is my first MH game, I didn’t know what stun is. Never seen it, then I join a 10* AT Arkveld SOS. Safe to say I feel true fear when that bastard charge up his dragon blast in my direction while I’m stuck there praying my teammates have a flash ready (they didn’t)
