I will never forget the time I hunted this thing. The atmosphere, design, theme, mechanics, *everything* For first time experiences, shara honestly surpasses Xeno for me
I saw the first phase why was just thinking "it's just a cute rock thingy" my friend was telling me to use an sos for his second phase, I saw the ground fall and thought that was it but then after a while his tentacle wing things bursted out and I legit yelled "WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON"
Ah yes, Xeno. The dragon that suddenly vanished while it was being studied before Iceborne... ...I...I think it might resurface fully mature. It apparently has the qualities to become a new Black Dragon. God I'm not ready for Black Dragon Xeno. I can't be the only one suspicious it's missing. It almost feels like they're saving it for sometime after the beautiful debut of Shara.
@@KnightOfTheFlames I think IB proved that some monsters can actually fake their deaths to recover from their wounds. Just like how SPOILERS Ruiner Nergigante did in the cutscene after beating Shara (you fight Ruiner Nergigante first and seemingly "kill" him), and same goes for Shara getting back up when everyone arrived.
Man, this was one of the best final bosses I've fought. He went from just a slow, lumbering typical final boss to a crazy-eyed Hindu god of destruction
i like the bits that sound like Kulve's theme. that's a nice touch. like this thing has always been around, and much like Xeno'jiva before it, it holds energy of _everything_ within.
I love the little bits of piano that comes in at 0:55. Also thank you for uploading the highest quality versions of these songs I can find on RUclips! Really appreciate it dude.
Given this thing's destructive power (the earthquakes it creates are said to be capable of destroying entire continents) and its ability to seemingly come back from death (even after being slain and carved), did we just stumble upon a new Black Dragon?
Black dragons are always like the name suggests black colored.. Shara Ishvalda is white and colorful and it wasn't reborn the way black dragons do but more of just not dead. So I don't think there's a connection there. A better theory would be that it's one of the five dragons of creation. Xeno'Jiiva being the Sapphire Star and Shara Ishvalda the dragon that became the land, being able to control earth like Shara can. On top of that (though it's probably irrelevant) Xeno and Shara share the same skeleton.
@@abyssalrayz9499 Well we do have lavasioth and that other bird monster I can't remember. But only the monsters that appear in the main series are Canon so unless Dhisfuria comes into the main series, I dont count it
This entire first phase is just a JPEG of DIO menacingly walking at Jotaro, except he doesn't stop walking and occasionally just fucking bellyflops on the ground 20m away from his actual target. Still looks cool tho
Shara is the reason why I wish mons like Nakarkos and Aktal-Ka where remade in MHW. For Nakarkos. you land in a pit of bones and in the darkness you can barely make out what could be a set of limbs. a pulse of energy flows up through those limbs giving enough lumination for you to see two skeletal heads. You have just disturbed the twin headed bone dragon. then as the fight continues well, I will leave it there :P
The design and the music reminded me a lot of Taikun Zamusa... I'm glad they're taking a little bit of inspirations from Frontier, while also giving it a touch of personality to make everything unique

@@KnightOfTheFlames that would be awesome!!

@@unknowna8056 i hope she will get a master rank version with original weapon and saffi'jiva type rng and not the shit show grind from based world
@@judygambel2801 Well... your wish kinda came true.
That one dislike is from Nergigante

@@yiangaruga4928 Disufiroa is a white black Dragon.
@@abyssalrayz9499 Yeah, but it is a frontier monster so I wouldn't take it as a Canon black dragon
@@donkilla1589 Frontier is canon

*Shadow of the Colossus intensifies*
The terror caused by those trumpets in the beginning

Still looks cool tho
this comment has the same energy as "Gen Z is so powerful"
Damn, the intro part is chilling...
i love the scale of the rock form, it takes up like half the arena
I love that, as the battle goes on, the area slowly changes!
1:39 Absolute chills 💙🌟
I can't believe Akiyuki Morimoto san composed this theme, it sounds really good!

Very fun fight
Phase 1: roblox monster
Phase 2 & 3: I think suicide is the only way to clear my head of this image
*chonky boye*
This thing took me three fucking tries to kill
The one Boulder that punched Chris back
I dont know why but i like phase 1 theme much more than phase 2 theme
I beated this thing first try in 4 minutes.

Cast off, change bettle
First time, song is great but the fight is lacking something...
A tree demon perhaps?
