Hopefully slinger won't have the same softening mechanic as in Iceborn.

Speculatively, they seem to have replaced the mechanic with monster wounds and focus strikes, as shown in the focus video. I'm glad to have them keep some kind of mechanic to emphasize the importance of hitting certain parts of the monstet, because base world was far too forgiving with Weakness Exploit and ignore hitzone builds.
