I don’t think protecting yourself with a rock is considered meshing unless your entire body is shoved inside the rock so it’s inaccessible. But using it so you only have to protect from one side. It’s smart imo. Makes it extremely hard for y’all so I understand that frustration lol, but you guys played very smart and in sync. Good hunt. No friendly fire from what I saw which is a bonus!
I do agree with your first point, that was one of my friends speaking at that time. It took a bit of learning on my end to figure out just how far the tail swing can go, never fought a bars on anything besides giga so I'm quite happy with how this hunt went considering one of our members wasn't in VC!
It takes learning both the cooldowns of your opponent and their playstyle while you're fighting them, bait their attacks and go in just as they're on cooldown. Or, for something like lamb, avoid their back as much as possible and bait their kick attacks as they have a longer cooldown or aim for the sides as best as possible.

You guys got lucky with not getting tail slammed to death
