Ok the chum scarecrows (the 2nd upgrade from shaka scarecrows) is ridiculous. Just fought steel Uragaan with them and i didnt expect the paralysis to trigger that often and i completely destroyed him. Im starting to employ a one weapon per element system to mix it up so i dont get bored of using the same weapon over and over but jeez iv never really used the dual blades before to take on a high teir monster before but it took me like 15mins to kill him before with Dios axe and like 8mins to kill him with the chum scarecrows. Nice easy way to farm him now
