It's become an epidemic. In every situation (excluding a gun party, speed-kill) everyone is flashing monsters for the simple hell of it.
More often than not people flash every monster, then they rush in and just get knocked down or thrown back. It's funny to watch if you know what I'm talking about.
So why do people keep doing it? Is it because they fear fighting it? Or because they feel like they have control thereby convinced the monster is harmless?
In most situations flashing monsters just hinders the fight and closes monster vulnerabilities like Tigrex when it roars and Espinas when it exposes it's face.
Sound off. Do you flash spam? Do you dislike flash spammers?

I dont use flashes alot, since i dont want to waste materials for combining it [and cuz im not EX] but if needed i will use. Either in solo runs or either for quick runs since i dont like really wasting time :s But i will use flashes also when someone is in trouble :3
but i guess the reason people use flashes mostly is cuz it gives you a good opening to deal the most damage.

And then they run out of flash bombs and die because they never learnt to kill the monster normally.
Like people doing "flute glitch" HR31 espinas. HR31?! LOL WUT. Why would need to flute that?

Must of the time I just use it when fighting kusha.. I hate that thing wind aura.
Sometimes with los or ian as well, its just funny how easy they get (unless they spam the tail attack). Other than that theres really no need to use them, unless you are doing a speed run with bowguns as someone mentioned above.

Use it on Kusha when he's flying... but Los and Ian? LOL they are so easy, you don't need to flash bomb them unless you farming for a long time and want to do speed run.

They're a godsend for preventing monsters from leaving the zone. Azure in FnH anyone?

There's no need to flash Ian, because she has several moves that are heavily punishable. Los, despite being just as easy, wastes way too much time with its flying moves.

I dunno about Los, when he lands from flying is a brilliant opportunity window. Triple pound, greatsword charge, etc, flashing just drops him out the sky. If I'm hammer or GS I hate it when people flash, especially when I've gotten positioned and have started my attack.
Flashes are great for getting things out of the air, so often I'm the only one that takes Flashes to Kusha and once I've run out everyone just runs around and can't do anything when its in the air. And like coathangerabortion said, if somethings leaving the area, the person without lag just throws a flash as it's flying.
Also, I facepalm hard when people flash Blangonga, or especially Rajang. Rajang is twice as hard when he's flash bombed because you cannot predict him since he's not aiming for anyone, which means you can't bait him or counter him.

Why Yukii hasn't been the godess of my nubless world years sooner is beyond me.
As it stands I am contemplating whether I should continue with my plan to one day single handedly eliminate the Yakuza bosses and take my place at the top, or moving to wherever Yukii is at that particular moment.
Both of those will likely cause my death, but the adventure will be well worth it.
Also, go for hr100 silver dragon. Can't flash him out of the sky and he does instant jump and rape or 90^o fireballs on the top of your face. He's basically god while in the air cause you can't do shit to him and he smites you regularly while you can only cry in disgust.
