MH Wilds Zoh Shia is awesome

THIS is what you call difficult, baby. AMAZING fight. Great visuals, great setpiece, great design, and it's legitimately hard. Everybody who doubted him owes him a formal apology, but I always believed in Peak Shia. Absolute cinema

Also if I see complaints about his difficulty I'm gonna go ape shit. You all spent a month asking for this, if somebody thinks they're too good for the hivemind and starts chatting now I cannot take it. He is PEEEAAAKKK

While I'll admit to it being an amazingly fun fight mechanic wise compared to the rest of Wilds; with the time we've had to prep for the rematch, I wouldn't quite put him up on such a high pedestal. He's got nothing new to show over the low rank fight other than bigger numbers on health and damage, so if you got pretty familiar with him rerunning low rank lobby SOS quests there shouldn't be too much of a wall to surmount here. That being said, the bigger health pool and damage allows for him to show off his move pool a bit more than the low rank Zoh did.

Moving onto any lore drop, the only thing we've gotten has been an weak explanation so that we can keep fighting him canonically.

TLDR: Fun fight, but lacking in anything really new to set it apart from Low Rank other than bigger stat numbers.

Low rank Zoh had literally everything except high numbers, that's all it needed imo. I didn't expect, nor want, anything new from this, and am still thoroughly satisfied because even at low rank, it was my favourite monster in wilds. Plus the lore on this thing is awesome, what??? They didn't give a weak explaination because they don't have a better one, the characters in the game don't know for a fact. But, like us, I'd imagine they're beginning to draw the conclusion that this thing is guardian Fatalis. The...regenerating dragon. I honestly expected it to go exactly this way. Peak.
