This series misses Monty so badly its not even funny. And that's not me saying he was a great writer or anything, but he sure as shit would've been better with the powerscaling than this crap.
You can look at Dead Fantasy and absolutely see he would have. Even with RWBY Season 3, you legit see the differences between Qrow and Winter and everyone else... or Ozpin and Cinder.
Now it's literally everyone looks weak and pathetic and you wonder how they are anything like how they was in Season 1-3?
