World Rajang gave me PTSD. When i first loaded into rise, I didn't think id encounter him so early. during one of my hunts, I saw a question mark monster on my map, so I went to see if it was a new monster I have never seen before, it was rajang, napping at the base of the pyramid. i didn't see him at first, and started roaming around trying to find the new monster, then I spotted the dark haired bump on the corner of my screen. i turned to see a rajang mouth and I literally squealed so that the other discord members started laughing. since then, when I see a rajang in rise, my first thought is, "Oh free mats"

Iceborne Rajang has to be my favorite, those turf wars he has are the BEST and seeing the tremors move towards you was amazing.

Something that happened, and that I measured by looking at one quest in each game in Kiranico, was that Rajang got smaller in 5th gen. MHGU rajang is about 850-1200 cm (in the middle is 1025) World Rajang is about 730 to 1000 cm, (in the middle is 865) and Rise rajang is about 750 to 1060 cm. (in the middle is 905) so if GU rajang is 100% of his original length (having this be 100 percent assumes that he hasn't shrunk since Dos), then World is about 84%, and Rise 88%; and square cube law means about half to 60 percent of the weight/size.

My first encounter with Rajang was in Rise and then later got to see how different he was in 4U/GU... and this is the very first time seeing how he was in World and *Holy God* at 8:52 there's no mistaking that monkey REALLY wants you dead when in Rampage mode... Were it not for the "T" rating, I can imagine Capcom would've had Rajang easily tear off your arms and bite your head off

I'll never forget Iceborne Rajang, I fought him alongside a friend who basically had to carry/help me through most of the expansion content, and not even that stopped me from carting 3 times, multiple times, forcing us to retry the mission a few times until we got it. I remember getting absolutely frustrated with it to the point I told my friend "Imagine if you weren't here to help me, then how the fuck am I supposed to solo this?". World was my first MH game, and I was so bad at it back then XD good memories And good video as always Heavy!

We still have to see what Sunbreak does to Rajang, we for sure are getting Furious, but they can add a twitst to make him harder

Rajang is by far and away my favorite fight in the Monster Hunter series, with my favorite version of him being Iceborne. He's such a hard fight to learn when you first encounter him, but its so rewarding to have it click and finally feel confident against him. And somehow, the fight feels completely fair. Every single time I've carted to him I know with absolute certainty that it was my fault and I just need to get good. He doesn't have any stupid gimmicks or arbitrarily annoying mechanics. He's just a really angry monkey trying his hardest to make you dead, and I love it.

I loved Iceborne Rajang, and Furious even more so. I know some people hated him for his relentlessness, but I never really felt it was unfair. I'm really hoping Furious makes it in Sunbreak or that at least Rajang gets his Iceborne mojo back. With the abilities of our hunters in Sunbreak we need more aggressive monsters. Fighting Iceborne's Furious with Rise's combat would be a pure adrenaline fueled thrill ride. I want it.

Glad that you covered my favorite monster in the series. The coolest thing about Rise's Rajang, despite the reversions made because he was HR, is that when you encounter him early on he'll just be a question mark on the map that doesn't move the entire time. I had this curious reaction when I played for the first time and when I went to investigate it was sleeping. I can imagine how many players go and say something like "ha ha, I'm gonna wake up the funny monkey" only to get destroyed by something they shouldn't be fighting at that point in time. It's making me more hyped to see how tuned up Rajang will be in Sunbreak once I get a high enough MR to fight him or even see him invade maps.

God, iceborne furious rajang is truly the beast he was always meant to be. I've seen some videos where peoples biggest critiques of iceborne rajang is that he lacked the patterns (and to an extent, the predictability) of 4u and the older games. I can see the problem with that, as learning to fight extensively still doesn't guarantee you the same results every time in iceborne. However, having fought him so much in iceborne, as he's always been my favorite monster, I thought he was finally done a good service as a tough fight because he can't be approached the same way every time (furious, regular rajang is still a bit predictable imo) and it's what makes him a unique monster to me. Great video and I'm glad you touched on furious rajang in this because I think that's an example of a good fight (that could probably be improved with better hit zones).

This got uploaded as I was watching your other monster retrospectives

You forgot to add Bullfango and Bulldrome as part of the fanged beast but other than that good video

Haven't seen the video yet, but I love all rajangs! :D these ''history'' videos are great

Awesome video as always Heavy Wings 💙😁.

Furious is an optional quest too, not only event

Evolution of MONKEY

Rise being my first monster hunter game i had no clue what a rajang was. So when i discovered it asleep while hunting a different monster, i did what ive done before and threw a kunai as i rode past it. Little did i know that it had a laser beam which took 3/4 of my health and left me panicking. Luckily i eacaped but that left me scared of rajangs for a while. Definitely a memorable moment for me. Another memorable moment was when i was grinding for a full set of its armor. At this point i was already comfortable with fighting rajangs. During one fight all my wire bugs were on cooldown and i ended up getting grabbed. At this point i have never been grabbed and thought ive seen all of his animations so i was really surprised. His combo left me at slightly below half health. At this point i was stuck on the ground believing that my defense was strong enough to leave me a sliver of health. Boy was i wrong. He instantly carted me with his combo finisher. I was left flabberghasted. Although rajang did leave me slightly tramatized, he is definitely one of my favorite monsters.

i love this series, pls do more videos :)

One of my favorite monsters! His World theme is a banger!

I really like Rajangs pin move in world where after throwing you on the ground he winds up for a finishing punch 🤜 when it happened to a friend of mine on our first hunt against him I was like “ok he is my favorite monster”. Still a tough fight sometimes.

Great video! This is for the algorithm.

Rajang is my absolute favourite monster. It's supposed to be both a tough challenge and a very cool concept; I really liked Iceborne's iteration as well, so here's hoping that they speed him up in Sunbreak, although highly unlikely. But I still have a glimmer of hope

when he first observes you at a distance and he does that gorilla style OOH ha OOH ha OOH? i love dat

I love this monkey, my favorite since MH4. Rajang and Deviljho are my favs to conquer and love. Sad Raj was nerfed on Rise and Devil is nowhere to be found. Love ur vids!

Nothing will beat his introduction on 4U

lol the way he just lasers you while holding.

Furious rajang constantly doing the punching tumble to try and kick my ass while I just dodge them all while taunting his enraged ass.

I really like the Rise Rajang, but I feel like they could have retained some of Iceborne's speed and agression increases with him. Sure, he is only high rank in Rise so they had to tone him down someway, but with the increased speed and mobility for hunters in Rise countering some of Rajang's greatest strengths I really feel like he didn't need that much of an adjustment. I hope Sunbreak gives us a faster Rajang again and brings back Furious Rajang. I really used to hate Rajang in FU though. Back in those days the controls were clunkier and you were so much slower than in the later gen games, and it was just a pain to avoid the damage from all of those little hops Rajang does.

As a fifth fleet hunter my opinion is heavily lacking information but I love ice born regime I hope they make him better in Sunbreak

Worlds rajang was straight super Saiyan. Rises... Well he's there.

I love Rajang he's one of my favourites and iceborne rajang is the best he's ever been, I only have 2 issues with him in iceborne, 1 I wish he kept his rock throw from 4th gen that was awesome, 2 furious felt very pigeon held in his place in the game only available with event quests, if it was me I would have made him the level 6 secret monster for the Volcanic zone in the guiding lands and could go anywhere in investigations.

Iceborne Furious is by far my favorite.

i like the freedom unite furious rajang a lot

My favorite Monster since MH2Dos :D

So furious rajhang starts as a super saiyan and when enraged, becomes super saiyan 2

Pretty sure in sunbreak the problems with rise rajang will be barely there and god knows how furious rajang will be

It's sad you don't mention the roars, we could have a roar comparison between classic vs world roar.

The Legendary Super Saiyan, his kinship attack is literally named the same as Broly's attack!

Going from iceborne to rise I was confused at how I didn't have a hard time against rajang and wondered if he was easier or if I was more used to it. In iceborne I played mostly DB but didn't dare fight rajang with them so I went with a sticky lightbowgun, which was still pretty fun because I either dodged or a single normal attack would take 90% of my health and in rise I mained the swaxe and was able to beat him after a good fight. But what really told me he was easier in Rise was his belly slam, In Iceborne if I didn't superman dive it it was a guaranteed cart while in rise a simple dodge would do, I really surprised me that one.

Rajang is the man!

I completely agree with you on the final opinion, but I really wish they'd focus a little more on making him smarter. Make a primate that is dangerous not just because he's strong, but also smart

I hope they add his iceborne movesets in sunbreak g-rank

Monke Gang

Only mistake I noticed is you mentioning that furious rajang is event quest exclusive however after his special assignment both him and raging brachydios unlock optional quests, otherwise perfect

I liked rajang in iceborne but basically quit mhw for a while because of furious rajang. Great vid.

Base rise rajang: *nerfed* Meanwhile furious Rajang: *laughs in pure unrelenting terror*

am kinda excited and hope they will add furious rajang in sunbreak....as rajang in high rank is kinda predictable the least nargacuga was more unpredictable for me

Not sure if it was Rise or was added in Sunbreak, but he can also grab wire bugs out of the air

I like normal rajang in iceborne, he's just better than in any other game and even tho furious has some cooler moves I felt like the fight took too long. Wish the hitzones were the same in Iceborne like other games however.

I'd like an updated opinion now that we have G Rank Rajang and Furious Rajang with Sunbreak!

Funny thing is that Furious Rajang is actually easier than the normal one because he has a lot more openings, while the normal one is just a hit and run fight. Sure, you need to learn the fight first, but once you‘ve seen other people abuse his attacks and be patient enough he gets much easier. The normal one is just on crack and abuses some of its attack better once you are too close while also being harder to dodge (the attack where he digs up a lot of ground in front of him especially, which is exclusive to the normal one)

I miss the giant rock throw

Rise did rajang so dirty.

Can't believe you censored a perfectly inoccuous tail.

6:59 i dunno man i prefer to call this state "hot hands"

Only fast Rajang was in Base rise was fast asleep xD

A small detail that was missed in the iceborne version is the doubling in size of the thing. Iceborne rajang is _huge_

unfortunately this video does not include frontier where they got super saiyan 3 and super saiyan 4 rajang... would love to hear description on them

I’m fairly confident they will speed him up in master rank, a lot of people get overly jumpy at the prospect that he’s so much easier but most people are comparing post game master rank content from MHWI to high rank, base game content, it was inevitable he would be easier, even if they had changed literally nothing from MHWI because he’s not currently a master rank monster. The reason I’m confident, is because in my experience with older games, high rank raj has almost never given me a challenge once I learned his moves, but master rank has always been really hard even with full knowledge of his kit, so I think it’s fair to say he’ll probably get fixed in MHRS.

I still remember being extremley underwhelmed with rajang in 4u and gu everybody acted like he was some iconic legendary hard fight and i clapped him with eaze Then icebourne came around and i was the one getting clapped

we got a new gorilla in Sunbreak with garangolm so i'm desperately praying that we get a new crab too. both gorillas and crabs were introdused in gen 2 but garangolm is the first totally new monster of this type since. third gen gave us bears, 4th gen gave us a chimp/subspecies and an elephant, 5th gen gave us a monkey (bishaten) and, with sunbreak, a new gorilla (garangolm) finally after 16 years. i love garangolm's design, and how he's the rathalos tier ape i've been asking for. we've been waiting on a new crab for the same amount of time and may have to wait longer. capcom, please, end the second gen curse. it would be very anticlimactic/unfair to finally get a new gorilla but not a new crab to join him. the crab can be any threat level, i just want it to have a unique fight that's more different from shogun ceanatour and daimyo hermitour. the monster design has come a long way since gen 2, i believe in you capcom. i love MHW rajang, Rise raang was fun but not the same impact. this isn't too fair a comparison though, as much as people like to make it, because in Rise he was in the base game where in MHWI it was a post launch/post story update to the G/Master rank expansion. it's apples and oranges, still fruit/still rajang but not the same. i also love the grab from being clutched onto with his primate arm flexibility being on full display or how if he is knocked down close to a wall he catches himself and follows up with a hand spring. the finisher is the only truly "fuck lance" attack in MHW, it does 2 hits with massive chip damage that is way more than even elder dragon super moves. in Rise they opted for "nah guard up don't block this cause fuck you", i hope this goes away in sunbreak or they edit the skill to have 2 tiers of unblockable where guard up 1 lets you block tier 1 and guard up 2 lets you block tier 2 penetrating attacks along with the chip damage reduction the levels normally give you in Rise. a more creative solution to blocking was shara's beam where most of the time the like 12 hits would use all your stamina and hit you, if you face it head on, but if you turn to the side the knockback moves you out of its hit box in 2 or 3 ticks. for valstrax ambush, apex zinogre lightning, and all-mother dragonators they just bull shit you. easier to fix is apex zinogre, just have them aim for behind you so you have to turn but worry about a follow up so needing good reflexes to turn away and back towards him to block any combos. i love how in IB furious rajang's moveset is more unique, focussing more on his thunder attacks than his physical ones. the 2 new pins are also nice but a bit less dangerous, if the move itself doesn't kill you, as follow ups are slower. he truly has no tail this time so you have to hit his face to power him down which is a lot more dangerous than sticking to his butt with the old games having ok back leg hit zones. furious also changes his not getting knocked down near a wall where he will, instead of a hand spring, he'll do a sweeping beam. the funniest thing by far about furious rajang in MHWI is if he does the beam/areal thorw pin and you are hit by the hunter flying to the ground you take massive damage too. so he can get a lucky throw using your parner as a weapon against you. there are probably some glorious clips of this killing both the thrown hunter and the one they fly into simultaneously.

bruh they combined iceborne rajang and mh4u apex rajang in sunbreak ffs

Iceborn furious wins for me just because of the grab n' laser attack.

A video about monke

I want a Rajang Deviant

Furious rajang is ssj2 and armor mode is armormint haki

MH World was my first MH game, so when i heared about Rajang and hes lore i was exited and wasent disapointed when he came out, hes fight is so mutch fun because he was the only monster that could keep up to the hunters mobility and speed while hitting like 10 trucks so it was a even match between you and the monster, hes moves where also easy to dodge away from so if you where at your A-game with your dodging you could defeat him, then furious came out and said "i dont want you A-game, i want your S-game" which made hes fight even more exiting and hypet, persnoly i enjoyed normal rajang more then furious but both fights are my faves in the game, Rise rajang was a let down where they nerfed hes speed and had more openings which really was disaponting but still a fun fight overall but could have been better

It might just be me but I think that Iceborne Rajang is harder than Sunbreak Furious Rajang

I was thinking of playing iceborne but i think its best if i dont

Can we just talk about the fact that Iceborne Rajang wins literally every turf war that he is a part of?

With time, Rajang just became stronger. Not because of anything the devs did, but because he gained more and more feared among hunters.

MHW Rajang is by far the most enjoyable because the Game is the best in the Series when it comes to combat.

Rajang have the same difficulty in Mhrise when you dont use the wirebug at all. The wirebug offer mobility and recovery so good that people ask since before for the annoying janky movement since ps2 era.

I love Rajang in Rise. I like him in other iterations although I haven't fought him in FU or 4U yet.

In Rise, once Rajang is enraged he remains in the state until he's knocked out of it. I've yet to face him in Iceborne, so I don't know if it applies to him there as well.

My favorite rajang is probably mhfu or rise... I love the older games' difficulty, but wyvern riding a rajang to demolish a kushala daora has been soooo cathartic, I hated kushala's hurricanes in recent games, but absolutrly humiliated him in rise. Rise beeing easy isn't all that bad haha

I don't know why, but for some reason, I feel like the thumbnail is missing something

As a Hammer player, IB Rajang is really annoying; if he spams the punches there’s not much you can do except run away. F Rajang actually fixed the fight for me by adding better punish windows on his new moves. SB mostly took away a lot of the sluggishness of HR Rajang which was a joke in Rise, but I still prefer F Rajang for the same reasons in MR as I did in IB (although base definitely has more openings in SB, or maybe I’m just better).

I think iceborne rajang would work well in rise

I was wondering why Rajang looked so subtly ugly in Rise, I didn't even notice how much they changed his face in the 5th gen, tbh I much prefer his older design

His Spirit Bomb attack Frontier exclusive?

Rajang just annoys me. What I'll do when I want to fight him, I just blast him with sticky ammo so that he'll be rolling on the floor and never get up

This video desperately needs the update after sunbreak

monke gang

Nah his rampage mode is SSJ and for furious it's SSJ2. Also furious is not exclusive to event quest there is a special assignment and optional quest to hunt him

Just wait until MHR SunBreak, i guarantee you Rajang from Iceborne will be reborn.

My fav Rajang is a dead Rajang

I was never good at fighting this thing

Rajang, or how I usually call him: Goku

Not showing the Gigantic Rock is a Crime. Gens Rajang has a mayor Change from 4. Gen. His Topple Treshhold has heavily increased. In 4U, you could easily chain Topples but thats no longer possible.

I hate how they changed a lot of classic monster mechanics and roars in the 5th gen.

Thumbnail feels off, like its missing something.

ya, rajang in rise is a lot easier than in world

Correct me if I'm wrong on this. Iceborne Rajang is Master Rank. So, isn't it possible his speed could be increase and he could get some more Iceborne moves in Sunbreak? Even know Rise is my first MH game I do agree Rajang is easy. I was actually disappointed the first time I fought him.

“Rampage mode” we all known its fap hands mode

the actual name for armor arms is called rampage mode, but i just call them asshole arms

apex rajang lv140 still best rajang

HR Rajang was never hard (unless he was a Hyper Version). The G-Rank/Masterrank Version is always the real fight so i at least dont think Rise ruined Rajang until i see what Sunbreak does to him. Also for me personally Iceborn Rajang is far easier then MH4U or GenU Rajang. It feels glacialy slow to me.. kinda fun that different people percieve this fight so different. Furios Rajang however is a whole different Story in Iceborn.. man they went all out with him and that fight was insane. I had 0 issues with him in MH4U or GenU but in iceborn he kicked my teeth in more times then i liked.

Maybe we'll see Voljang come to the series
