Something to be added to the Gigginox and Baleful Gigginox pages.

I dunno if something like this really belongs, here, but in case it doesn't I'll keep this brief.

Something I think should be noted in the notes part of the page is the uncommon tendency for the Gigginox and Baleful Gigginox's A.I. to make the monster roar multiple times in a row, up to around 3 times (has happened before, in case it wasn't clear). It will do this mostly when enraged and will very rarely do so when not. No other monsters A.I. does this, making it a unique feature to the Gigginox family.

Do any of you think this is relevant enough to be added?

Tigrex, Brute Tigrex, Yian Garuga, Odibatorasu, Fatalis, HC Yian Garuga, HC Khezu, HC Red Khezu, HC Tigrex, HC Cephadrome, Rarely Monoblos or Diablos. They have all done 3 roars in a row to me before so that wouldn't be true note.

Well, I mean on a game by game basis. That, and in my experience the Gigginox and Baleful are the only monsters who consistently roar consecutively when enraged at least once or twice per fight or so.

Last night while hunting a Baleful in fact, it roared 4 times in a roar one after the other. It's the only instance I've seen it do that. So I think it's an AI feature rather than an AI quirk.

So accord to you, it's not worth noting even though it could be an annoyance to some newer players, and even though it shares this AI trait with a multitude of other monsters, most of whom are from completely different games in the series? Not to mention Locke completely omitts which games the monsters hail from.

What you say really doesn't hold up, all things considered. Why not note it? Multiple monsters may have it but you also fail to consider that the afforementioned monsters are the only monsters of the games they hail from to possess this trait. Which in the case of Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate (the version I play) is the Gigginox, Baleful, Diablos and B.Diablos. Also put that up there with the fact the wiki has noted before AI traits in monsters such as the Great Jaggi, among others. On top of that: the Gigginox, and Baleful unlike the Diablos (in my experience), perform this trait consistantly if given the opportunity.

In short, there really is no reason to deny noting this AI trait. It may not be unique, but it is worth noting since multiple monsters accross the games possess it.

Just stop.

If you're this passionate about it, edit it in and no one will particularly care. There's no need to make such a big deal over this.

Of course, since you have, it may be undone or changed because people do care now, but it's innocuous enough to go unchalleneged, at least in my opinion.

Since you gave a better explanation, I've decided to drop it.
