the Chosen Few challenge

so because i hate you all MH3U is fairly easy i've decided to make a challenge to make it harder for us all

i've called it the chosen few challenge:

there are a few difficulties you can choose from the rules are the same for all except fo the amount of monsters you can create armour and weapons out of

these difficulties are:

Easy = 20 monsters
Normal = 10 monsters
Hard = 5 monsters
Very Hard = 2 monsters
Haru Hard = no monsters

The Rules

1. you are only allowed to create weapons and armour out of the specified amount of monsters e.g. if you have chosen easy you may make armour and weapons out of the materials of 20 monsters
   
2. you are allowed to hunt all monsters and collect their materials however you cannot make armour/weapons out of more than the difficulties set amount
   
3. Monster materials are a rare thing you know so you cannot sell any monster materials, strapped for cash? better start grinding for it!
   
4. You will notice there are some weapons that aren't affiliated with a monster for example rust weapons, these weapons do often have a specific monsters material to use for it therefore whichever monster material is used for it's upgrade is counted as one of the monsters you can use for armour and weapons.
   e.g. a rust weapon requires a rathian ruby therefore if created then high rank rathian is one of the monsters you can create weapons and armour from.
   
5. All ore weapons are allowed however you can only make one the entire playthrough. please note that you cannot upgrade this past it's rank e.g. low rank ore weps will stay low rank ore weps
   
6. All ore armours are allowed however you can only make one in the entire playthrough.
   
7. Low rank, High rank and Grank monsters count as seperate monsters
   e.g. if you created low rank rathalos gear and then create high ratholos gear that counts as two seperate monsters.
   
8. if a low rank weapon goes into high rank upgrades this does not count as another monster being used unless you wish it to be
   e.g. if a great jaggi weapon goes from low rank jaggi materials to high rank jaggi materials this does not count as using 2 monsters
   this rule is optional if you wish to truly test yourself then by all means count using high rank materials to upgrade a weapon into high rank as using two of your monsters
   
9. No slime weapons
   
10. No adrenaline/heroics use
    
11. You cannot upgrade armour into high rank you must make a high rank armour set
    
12. In the case of shared materials such as rath marrow the amount of monsters that give this item will be used, in the case of rath marrow all ian and los variants give rath marrow meaning that it is 6 monsters (possibly more if you count any variants within the ranks)
    the exceptions to this rule are:
    
    bird wyvern gems
    wyvern stones
    
13. Small monsters do not count as a monster only large monsters
    this rule is optional if you want to you can count small monsters such as kelbi and rhenos as monsters and therefore using their materials for weapons will count as a monster from the specified amount
    

if i have been unclear at all please ask any questions and i will try to be a bit more clear

if you have further restrictions you wish to be added then suggest them and i will see if it is fair or not

otherwise i hope you enjoy this challenge and i thank you for attempting it

well because of your bitching i have now added more rules and a new difficulty in your honour congrats

do kelby's/bulfango etc. count as monsters?

i have not decided yet but if you were planning on making the kelbi bow it is a slime weapon when awakened so it cannot be used awakened

otherwise i will not count them unless it makes the challenge too easy if you want you can count them to make it harder on yourself but it would make very hard a lot harder than it should be
