Are you capturing monsters? Capturing not only shortens the fight (often they are most dangerous when close to death) but you get more rewards. Could get you those Anjanath pelts quicker.

Also a monster I hadn't seen before called a bazeljuice (not sure how you spell it) appeared during a quest I think I was hunting a jagras when an anjanath showed up followed by the bazeljuice that would have been something to see all 3 monsters fighting each other, I was going to let them fight it out then claim the rewards which didn't go as I'd hoped either the anjanath or the bazeljuice killed me I'm not sure which monster killed me it happened so fast. |

The good thing about this game is that things you think are really hard become relatively easy as you progress, and something else takes its place as the new "big pain in the butt", LOL! My most recent pain was Kushala Daora who I finally beat last night in a group of 4 players. She is VERY frustrating to fight.
Last night I got the achievement for 100 monster hunts, and the achievement for capturing 50 of them. I love nothing more than capturing them. It's very satisfying. Oh, and Bazelgeuse is a jerk. You'll find that he will hound your every step, constantly showing up wherever you're fighting something. He's the first monster to make me use poop as a weapon! |

Kushala Daora is one of Elder Dragons you fight towards the end of the story. There's a new area called "Elders Recess" which you may not have come to yet. That's where she is, along with a bunch of other new monsters. |

Speaking of Anjanath I've noticed something different about them when doing the proving quest I've noticed that they now spit fire I! I'm not sure if that's limited to that specific quest I'm going to fight one offline to see if the offline Anjanath's spit fire, if only it was blue fire like in the 2014 Godzilla movie that would be more impressive. I've noticed these little cat like creatures (not palicos) that throw bombs at me I forget what they are called but they are really annoying 2 of them alone nearly killed me those little pests are not worth fighting. |

Oh yeah, Gajalaka's... (I had to look up the spelling). They are a pain. Killing them seems to be the only way, at least that I've found, to get throwing knives which you can use to create poison knives and other types for your slinger. They are tough considering their small size. |

I'm on the final story mission now! After that I'll just be grinding out gear and facing tougher versions of existing monsters.

I'm going to fight Nergigante next I'm not going to try and fight him solo I started the mission just to see what he looked like, 20 seconds later I was dead, I've noticed that the anjanaths are becoming more and more aggressive while they were always aggressive since I started doing the proving quest their aggression levels seem to have gone through the roof.
