For the hydra damage check it's worth remembering that the game attributes all damage done from hex debuffs to the champ that placed the hex. So when Rathalos hits those 1-2 M smacks cupidus will also get credited for 30~40 k. It's not a ton but it inflates his numbers slightly when comparing the two champs.
@@majo3488still venomages damage as it's her poisons, regardless of who extended them Since cupidus is placing the hex, any damage done thru the hex, the game gives it to the placer
Much more than that even, if rathalos does 1-2 mil with his a1 or single target a2, which he does often enough, 30% of that dmg goes to cupidus. That is a lot.
Really excited about this new champ! I did want to mention that cycle of violence mastery does proc on decapitated heads, and is a unique 30% chance alongside reflex/merciless. That is, you can potentially get 2 cooldown reductions on 1 hit. While relentless does get his 5th turn passive up more often, I feel it has a giant drawback of outrunning buffs (even with 1 extender) and it just feels bad when you do your big hit with no buffs up. I'm 100% putting him in my best merciless 4 piece, with a retaliation, and crossing my fingers to get 2 accessories.
Long time monster hunter fan here sir. Its Rath-a-los. One of the flagship Wyverns from the Monster hunter series. A mean bugger that dominate you early game. The Armor in Raid is armor and weapons made from the Wyvern's remains. Love your stuff!
I got him today as well I’m trying him out with killstroke,cruel and righteous and a HP ring with substats atk % def % and hp % he seems to be doing well but I think he can be even better great video and informational
I just *finally* pulled Whisper, which I was already really excited about because I had a 6* Awaken waiting for her for ages. It's only a hunch, but I think these two are going to synergise sooo sweetly! Just have to make sure Rathalos is 2 or 3 points faster then Whisper, and the two should be rocking. Not sure either will reach Acrizia levels of awesomeness, but I'm hopeful.
Currently testing him WITH Acrizia, it might be me but if you also pair with an HP Burner, like say Geomancer, he damn near hits like a enemy max hp nuker. Gonna next test in an unkillable team today
i literally just put the gear from my old genbo on him and he already smacks so hard for the crap gear i have on him, he's amazing, i got visix from daily login, pulled lady of ireth (i think) from a sacred shard
I just got him yesterday and I am so Happy for this champion. Can't wait to have him build and he's going to be so badass in a lot of areas within Raid 🙌🏻🔥💯.
I'm trying to hold off on claiming until champ chase, but can't wait to paly around with him some. One comment I will say, cycling the turns with stuff like counter attack, relentless, etc. may sound like a good idea, but I feel like it might be a bit of a trap compared to getting a speed tune that can make those stars align consistently. Love that the free champ seems like a really good early carry for some areas and will help a lot of new players thanks to the steam release.
Hey random question lol if I gave you a list of my legendaries could you help me out on who I should focus on? I'm lvl like 56 highest dungeon I get to on average across them all is like 15 if that helps understand where I'm at in the game so speak Edit: I have rathalos also came here on an idea on how to build him Edit 2: not looking for how toos on them btw just a general direction on who i should build fast an who to worry about last
As excited as I was about getting this champion, I summoned geomancer 3 days ago so he just used all my extra 5 star food and energy to get him doing amazing lol. Definitely going to be my next 6 star though.
The counter atts counting towards the countdown for his 200% dmg is nice but it would really suck to lose that dmg to a counterattack so there is a trade off
Hey man, sad you couldn't be in the competition (I know you wouldn't have the time due to your schedule). Anyway, love the videos and they are helping me a lot on the challenge. Learned a lot from you and other creators.
Came here after getting day seven and get shown gear I don't have yet. Would rather have seen a gear setup with stuff I can have at day seven. I only just opened the forge and have none of the lethal or savage items yet. Is there actually a beginner guide out there that doesn't just skip to top tier?
I’m playing whilst watching and an offer just popped up for the Monster Hunter Deal (not going to get it), with the most adorable art of a sweet Palico! They’re the cat people who act as aids/sidekicks to your Hunter. Makes me really want Plarium to make some Epic Palicoes to go with the Legendary Blademasters!
As someone relativley new to the game and not much good gear to equip him with, am i best just putting the whole cruel set that you get in the days before getting him on?
Depends on the sub stats. I believe they're always random so you might want to check all of your gear first. Cruel also won't do anything(other than the attack bonus) when he's ignoring 100% def so keep that in mind.
oh yeah! YEAH BABY! he will definitely skyrocket my account in a couple of years when i'll be able to get the gear and manage to roll the correct subskills!!!
Hi Ash could you face teams with the same power (stats)just so we can how they really fair most teams are 200.000 thousand under power doesn’t really gauge the the hits on same power lvl thanks nice content by the way 😊
Hey Ash, i would like to get into posting content on youtube as well. Could you give me any tips? Like what program do you use to make the youtube videos and things like that? Thanks.
I'm guessing because his a1 does more damage hitting all the heads. Also he puts an increase attack buff on him himself which opens up the chance to have all of his buffs stolen if his res is low. I was thinking the same thing btw.
I think a 6 piece set of Merciless would be good. Ignore 35% defense, 25% to attack, 30% chance to decrease random skill cooldown. I'm happy with how he's performing in it.
Great video again 🔥 question.... I have Big Un' in all my best gear, as I only have like 10 legos in total. His set up as my main nuker with 6.3k attack, 100/130% crit rate/dam, and 200acc. Do you think Rathalos would be a better option as my main nuker than Big Un? As I have limited gear. Thanks...
Great vid Ash!!! Also do you think maybe a remove all gear button would be nice QoL feature?! Im a mid game player and have been loving the free gear removal but its so tedious and also maybe a swap gear with other characters?
So something about his kit has me a tad confused. His A2 states "Attacks 1 enemy. Every second use of this skill in a ROUND will attack all enemies instead." The way you were speaking was every second time it is used it will attack all enemies but clearly it states in a round. Watching your hydra fight it was every second use it seemed. Who's round are they referring to? If it were actually a round then retaliation would be hugely beneficial I would think.
I built artak curse set with your video and now I have sword master build. I also have magnarr built with your guide so thank you soooooo much for helping my team☺️☺️☺️
I’ve seen him doing 17M damage throughout the 4 heads with his a2 when everything is aligned (second turn, fifth overall turn, decrease attack, increase defence, HP burn)
He could smack on the arena too not bad. Unfortunately i dont have that much decent gear for so many champs. Will have him with 5.7 k attack and 260 crit dmg and that's it. Saving gear for zinogre and potentially if the buff for fortus is good. I guess i need to farm dungeons harder. Tbh neglected them for some time since i was lacking good nukers but all of a sudden i got 4 massive ones in September and October.
I figured out how to nerf stone skin. Make it so that ignore defense also ignores stone skin. It could bring some issues with not having certain champions, however, everyone would be able to benefit.
As a F2P, I have little hope.of unlocking anything, anytime soon. The only thing I got was Xena and that's cause I grew up with her. I have a level 2 lvl 60s, so I'm getting there
Hey Ash,he's super jacked,love the samurai feel.spend most of the night leveling him up & trying on different gear,100% free removal saves the day.only one complaint,why Raid didn't give him burn?🔥
Would the Ocational AOE be in the A1 it would be broken really. My first impression was a disapointment. My ronda Outdamaged him in my clan boss unkillable which means i still have a way to go midmaxing him to his full potencial, and add a burner to the team which i dont have
I have a question I was looking at the armor sets and I come across hex and I was thinking with this champion I might be overthinking but if I remember correctly a champion under hex gets damaged if another champion on their team is hit what if he attacks them all and they're all under hex does the damage just keep going over and over???
(Last paragraph is the most important) Ok, almost 1am after getting Blades at 7pm. Just now hitting about 650 Red Skulls( uh, no, wrong franchise again - probably need a few more strokes then mixing it up will be ok) red scrolls not Skulls) dancing with the mini-tar. Should get the other 250 after sleeping. Ok, Mr Ash, will see how best to equip him after a bit of sleep. My full grown puppy sends love to your son and asked me to tell you lick your son’s face chin to eye brow for him. (puppy dog is a shetland sheepdog 20lbs,tri color and kids LOVE him and best of all? His AKC registered name is ASH!. Thats why he prefers your channel. His bi black brother is Mando, short for Mandlorian.

That is intressting. I wondered as a new player who gets the damage called for when my Aox increases Venomages poisons in clan boss.
@@majo3488still venomages damage as it's her poisons, regardless of who extended them
Since cupidus is placing the hex, any damage done thru the hex, the game gives it to the placer
@@InvictusKR I've also been wondering about this, thanks for the explanation!
@@InvictusKR Thank you
Much more than that even, if rathalos does 1-2 mil with his a1 or single target a2, which he does often enough, 30% of that dmg goes to cupidus. That is a lot.
A visual thing like his lantern glowing or his sword being more on fire when his passive activates would have helped us so much :D

@23:19 Ash looking at the 587k dmg and not seeing the 1.1M pop-up w/o Weaken or HP burn. Rath is pretty nice.
thx a lot for the positive vibes and the guide to Rathalos :-)

Great vid Ash!
Thanks man! Glad you like it ;)
Just what I’ve been saving my savage set for! Been waiting for this video so pumped
Thanks for watching ;)
I'm trying to be a good teammate and wait til CvC to biuld him but man it's tough
It is 😂
Why do you wanna wait till CvC to do a build? I'm confused
I'm waiting for cvc to get him lol, went my 1st day in 1 month without paying the game lol
FACTS
If you fill your inventory with champs and pull him it puts him in your mail box and can pull him whenever you want
Ash what do you think about his armor and accessories that can be picked up from cvc??
Very happy to get this dude, thanks for the vid Ash!
Thanks for watching ;)
I just got him yesterday and I am so Happy for this champion. Can't wait to have him build and he's going to be so badass in a lot of areas within Raid 🙌🏻🔥💯.

I have my Rathalos in Relentless and Retaliation sets… been getting extra turns on extra turns on extra turns. 💪🏼

Him and the archer look like solid combo for hydra.
Makes sense since they are monster hunters

great hydra , I do not do much damage there so hopefully he will help thank you for your advice
I pulled aletreaon blade master from a blue, I can't wait to see you're vids on him, as I think he's the best of the new champs
Thanks for watching ;)
Wow that looks really impressive! I am very happy with this dude, in spite if his stance (thanks USMC!)
Thanks for tuning in ;)
As excited as I was about getting this champion, I summoned geomancer 3 days ago so he just used all my extra 5 star food and energy to get him doing amazing lol. Definitely going to be my next 6 star though.

I have attak, and this guy is perfect. I haven't got him yet, but I know he's gonna be awesome.
Thanks for tuning in ;)

Hey Ash thank you for posting this video about the new Legendary to us, we appreciate it bro ❤️😎
he always does this
@@JameGoFast Yessir he does
Ash, I put him in Swift Parry to get extra crit damage. I have to level up the gear. What do you think?
oh yeah! YEAH BABY! he will definitely skyrocket my account in a couple of years when i'll be able to get the gear and manage to roll the correct subskills!!!
12:32 that reaction dude ROFL
Hi Ash could you face teams with the same power (stats)just so we can how they really fair most teams are 200.000 thousand under power doesn’t really gauge the the hits on same power lvl thanks nice content by the way 😊
How do you have him in 20,000 power already with mo gear on? I have him only at 6,000
great hall maxed out
@218Flows oh that make sense I didn't even think of that thank you
He was huge for my account. Took my hydra damage from 1.2m to 8.5m 😂
Hey Ash, i would like to get into posting content on youtube as well. Could you give me any tips? Like what program do you use to make the youtube videos and things like that? Thanks.
dropped the cyclone 2 days earlier.... can't wait to run these 2 together
Thank you for the build, im f2p and my level 50 unbooked in relentless and retaliation can hit 200k when the combo is going.
Thanks for tuning in ;)
Are we going to get a TARAS video? Soon😢
Just found it 😮 thanks!
Thanks for watching ;)
I also run Cupidus in hydra, curious why you didn't use his A3?
I'm guessing because his a1 does more damage hitting all the heads. Also he puts an increase attack buff on him himself which opens up the chance to have all of his buffs stolen if his res is low. I was thinking the same thing btw.
Thank you the content ... I need some help .. I just got a 6 star blessing for rathalos . What should I use ???
I think a 6 piece set of Merciless would be good. Ignore 35% defense, 25% to attack, 30% chance to decrease random skill cooldown. I'm happy with how he's performing in it.

Gear recommendations for new players? I’ve only had the game a lil over a week and don’t have this stuff lol
Great vid Ash!!! Also do you think maybe a remove all gear button would be nice QoL feature?! Im a mid game player and have been loving the free gear removal but its so tedious and also maybe a swap gear with other characters?

I'm just about to build a myth-fu cb team. Would he work in a reflex set with a3 turned off?
I just started playing again just so i can have him. Didn't think he'd be a top pick.
maybe try these hydra / clan boss fights with more mid / early game team comps, please?
Thanks for the suggestion ;)
Scarab with destroy set? Ignore his def and destroy its hp same time. Might help?
I built artak curse set with your video and now I have sword master build. I also have magnarr built with your guide so thank you soooooo much for helping my team☺️☺️☺️
Did that give you much more damage from Artak? I've stripped mine in order to put him in hex but haven't yet
@@JALOPPY yeah its very satisfying to see all those hex and burn stack up and do more and more burn damage
@@papillon_monmon5988 thanks for taking the time to reply. I'll definitely give this a go! Have fun

I’ve seen him doing 17M damage throughout the 4 heads with his a2 when everything is aligned (second turn, fifth overall turn, decrease attack, increase defence, HP burn)
Honestly love this champ. Hits super super hard and is a really good nuker he is gonna make his way into my CB and Hydra teams
Thanks for watching ;)
Thanks for showing your build bro❤

Ash crushing end works only for 1 round. You need the other awakening to have extra damage every turn

Should I build him for hydra? I don't have anyone for hydra but I can pair him with ninja
Heck with cvc points you hold them for champion chase fusion events
I put mine in relentless and perception and never regretted it
thanks man!! btw new code up!
Thanks man ;)
First🎉. Thanks for all the work you put in to help us Ash.
Thanks for watching ;)
Nice to have access to their server with all the 60 level Champions
For hydra if I don't have lethal gear should I use relentless instead?
Or savage or instinct?
As a F2P, I have little hope.of unlocking anything, anytime soon.
The only thing I got was Xena and that's cause I grew up with her.
I have a level 2 lvl 60s, so I'm getting there
Ash, does his HP burn built in strengthen stack with a strengthen buff? Could he really be taking 50% less damage?
Hey Ash,he's super jacked,love the samurai feel.spend most of the night leveling him up & trying on different gear,100% free removal saves the day.only one complaint,why Raid didn't give him burn?🔥
Thanks for watching, Clifton ;)
I cant find a video on it what artifacts does he come with?
Would the Ocational AOE be in the A1 it would be broken really. My first impression was a disapointment. My ronda Outdamaged him in my clan boss unkillable which means i still have a way to go midmaxing him to his full potencial, and add a burner to the team which i dont have
How about a pairing with teela? She has the burn and the hex without needing cursed gear.
I have a question I was looking at the armor sets and I come across hex and I was thinking with this champion I might be overthinking but if I remember correctly a champion under hex gets damaged if another champion on their team is hit what if he attacks them all and they're all under hex does the damage just keep going over and over???
@ about 23 min in you say nice dmg but did you see the 1.1 MILLION!!! on the far right head!!!!
Skratch made a video where he had all stars aligned and without empowerment or soul he dealt 18m dmg innone aoe
reminds me of baron and baron was the first lego i ever pulled like 5 years ago lol

Would he be good in Destroy for Borgoth?
How is your res plus 110 even without gear
I'd like to see him tested in Sand Devil with Riho and Iron Twins with Geo. What blessing do you think Ash? I'm thinking Soul Reap.
What exactly does speed do?
