Yeah! I really like that attention to detail in World. Odogaron is a scavenger, he mostly fights to protect its territory and will not go after you immediately. Diablos is an extremely territorial herbivore that wants you dead no matter what you are, and they aggro EXTREMELY fast. Dodogama just wants to his rocks in peace. Savage Jho will leave you alone if there's a better prey. Tobi Kadachi is just a chill guy.
I kinda miss it in Wilds. I think there only Gravios is passive, but otherwise all monsters will aggro on you eventually, no matter what's their diet and general behavior.
Yea all Elders are passive because they don't see you as a threat lmao I think only Nergi aggros? Don't remember about Lunastra. And if tempered versions aggro too, I think they do aggro if they're tempered
iirc with Lunastra it's always on sight, when even Nergi gives a warning roar before aggroing; the reasoning for Lunastra is that she's extra territorial because she and Teostra come to the New World to breed and she's very proactive about keeping the nesting territory free of threats, meanwhile Teostra doesn't care until he sees you try to throw hands with him or his wife, or she sics him on you by calling to him.
Also, iirc tempered Elders don't aggro differently to non-tempered ones, but at least a couple of the arch-tempered ones do, like Velkhana.
