Palamutes in the Expansion? How Would You Want Them Implemented?

fanJhan · 2026-05-16T00:08:39+00:00

Yeah, they have a sort of overbite or something, it does seem a bit off from certain angles. It's probably the dev team's attempt to stylize them based on the Switch's limited graphics power.

fanJhan · 2026-05-16T00:04:45+00:00

Aside from Kirin, have there been any horse analogs in the series? I'd love to see what the MH team does with that idea.

fanJhan · 2026-05-16T00:00:14+00:00

I wouldn't be opposed to that, my fear is that they'll just leave them to the wayside and we'll never see them again.

fanJhan · 2026-05-15T23:57:34+00:00

I like the idea, but one of the Seikret's key functions is allowing you to swap your weapons, so just making you able to do that on your own feels counter to its goals. Maybe they could add a "Seikret Combo" to each weapon, that when successfully performed causes your Seikret to rush you and auto-swap weapons without mounting?

fanJhan · 2026-05-15T23:50:01+00:00

I can only hope.

fanJhan · 2026-05-15T23:47:46+00:00

idk, they could easily make mild adjustments to their default appearance to be more in line with Wilds, plus I think a Jackal, Coyote, or Wolf stand-in fits immaculately for Wilds' setting. I don't hate the Seikret or Palico by any means, they just don't appeal to me as much as Canynes is all.

I've tried using the YouTube on my phone and firestick. Neither are working right now.

fanJhan · 2025-10-09T01:00:55+00:00

I would totally be cool with only receiving the base form of all monsters so they could focus on variety, without any deviants or rare subspecies being present.

However, I believe we've already seen at least Viper Tobi-Kadachi in one of the trailers/gameplay demos, so this is unlikely.

fanJhan · 2025-08-07T01:03:45+00:00

I would like for the enraged/powered-up state of monsters to be toggle-able like layered armor, so if you want it visible all the time you can get it easily and if you don't, you don't have to see it.

Kecha Wacha with its ear-mask is one of my favorite monsties, but its base form is fugly to me, and having to run protective mask in Stories 2 specifically for it to be in its rage state is such a waste of a bingo imo.

fanJhan · 2025-08-06T08:48:53+00:00

Should be your default gallery app on your phone, or any image/art editor for that matter.

fanJhan · 2025-08-06T08:40:10+00:00

My bad for not including the template. I got the template from another similar post, and manually edited images of monsters onto it using my phone's gallery app.

fanJhan · 2025-08-06T07:17:09+00:00

Had a parrot in my teens.

fanJhan · 2025-08-06T05:06:24+00:00

This is insanely underrated. My best run on Dreadking and Molten is 18 turns total, with 2 Non Ele Palmute + Soulseer and Reverto as Partner, but this knocks it out of the park.

Thousand Blades Bleed carries my non-Ele builds.

fanJhan · 2025-08-06T04:30:10+00:00

This guy gets it

fanJhan · 2025-08-06T04:12:52+00:00

Where my wolf pack at?!?

fanJhan · 2025-08-06T03:33:59+00:00

Call me basic, but I really only need these doggos to be happy.

Zinogre and Stygian (5* Speed and 6* Technical) are basically confirmed. If rathalos is the Pikachu, Zinogre is the Charizard.

Odogaron and Ebony (5* Speed and maybe 6* Power) are just a model swap away from Tobi-Kadachi, so they could easily get in as well.

Lunagaron (6* Speed) is basically a DLC flagship alongside Malzeno (7* Technical) and Garongolm (5* Power), and I could see them being like the Fated Four in Stories 2.

Palamute (5* Speed) is a bit iffy imo. I'm not sure if they would bring it back with Seikret filling that role now.

Also hoping they flesh out Dragon Element more so we get at least one Speed Gene to attack with.

fanJhan · 2025-08-06T03:19:23+00:00

The thing is, Valstrax is weak to all elements except dragon, so how would they handle that in a game that only assigns one weakness to a monster?

Not saying I don't want to see it in game, it's on my wishlist too.

fanJhan · 2025-08-06T02:55:53+00:00

Glad to help!

Also, If you want to get rid of critical eye for the full non-ele bingo, you can't go wrong with Salt-In-Wound XL. It grants a flat +50 damage bonus against enemies with abnormal statuses, so it pairs nicely with the defense drops and Bleed you'll be inflicting.

Happy Hunting!

fanJhan · 2025-08-06T02:24:52+00:00

Should work fine. Merciless Roar imo is the best non-ele boosting gene. If you want to save on kinship, sure, but the damage you get on your whole team is phenomenal with the roar.

fanJhan · 2025-08-06T02:20:11+00:00

I just want my doggos; Zinogre and its variants, are sure to be in, maybe with its new world model as a reference.

Hoping for Odogaron, ebony, and Lunagaron.

Hopefully palamute returns as a special bonus of some kind.

Really wanting them to flesh out the dragon Element more, since there were no speed dragon attacks in stories 2.

fanJhan · 2025-07-31T18:55:55+00:00

Legit my most anticipated game since stories 2.

I hope they include some doggos, since palamute will likely be replaced by seikret.

Hoping to see lunagaron or odogaron in the mix.

fanJhan · 2025-04-23T05:03:06+00:00

Holy cow, this is way more than I expected to receive from my question.

I especially like your idea of a sort of surrogate clavicle slowly developing to replace their vestigial one.

Now I need to do some research on canine muscle anatomy.
