Kushala Daora is an Elder Dragon in Monster Hunter World (MHW). クシャルダオラ (鋼龍) in Japanese. Kushala Daora, a majestic Elder Dragon, rules the skies with its metallic sheen and mastery over the wind. This elegant creature is adorned with steel-like scales, capable of generating powerful gusts that act as both its defense and offense. Encounters with Kushala Daora are marked by tumultuous winds and cyclones, making it a formidable adversary. Hunters must contend not only with its mighty breath attacks but also with the protective wind barrier that shields it from harm. 

 

An elder dragon that shields itself with fierce winds, preventing anyone from approaching it. Its skin consists of hard, metallic scales.

Kushala Daora Details & Locations

 

Kushala Daora Combat Info

  • Deals physical damage.
  • Weak to mhw thunder damage sThunder and mhw dragon damage sDragon.
  • Susceptible to mhw poison status effect sPoison and BlastblightBlast.
  • Weakest in the head, followed by the forelegs and tail. All of them can be broken.
  • Similarly to other entries in the series, can be locked into a state of repeated knockdowns by targeting the head with heavy dragon elemental damage.
  • Limps and then flies to highest point on Elder's Recess/Ancient Forest.
  • Can generate a Wind aura around itself that repels anyone that gets close.
  • Wind resistance skills have limited effects. Windproof III can negate the knockback from its normal wind attacks, but not its enraged state.
  • Can generate tornados of "presumed" air pressure that deal damage to players in the center, and knock players back in the surrounding area.
  • The Hunting Horn melody Wind Pressure Negated can be used to similar effect as described of Windproof III above. The melody All Wind Pressure Negated can be used to counter both normal air attacks and those of its enraged mode
  • After resting status it will summon numerous tornados.
  • Will shoot jets of air at players. Do not underestimate the hitbox, as a full charged is fairly wide.
  • Easiest way to defeat is to bring flash pods and 10 flash insects, wait until he flies and flash him, he will fall to the ground and be open.
  • Beware: Flash Pods shouldn't be used when the Dragon takes off to fly to its nest. Let it go to sleep and set up bombs! Flash pods also won't have any effect when the Dragon is in a tornado.
  • Combat in his sleeping area will eventually fill up with tornadoes that impede movement and makes combat much more difficult to position.  Either kill him quickly, or get him to leave the area (through damage or after about 5 minutes of combat).
  • Tempered Kushala Daora can only be flashed 4 times.

 

Master Rank Changes:

  • Flashpods are much less effective, only staggering Kushala instead of Stunning it
  • Kushala gains temporary Flash immunity after two Flashes in quick succession
  • If you notice that a Tornado has blue crystals inside it, be careful. That thing will move.
  • The small roving tornadoes from Kushala Daora's breath attacks will seek out and combine with its larger updraft tornadoes. This causes them to briefly expand and catch inattentive hunters with a heavy blow.

 

MHW Kushala Daora Attacks and Moveset

Kushala Daora performs the following attacks:

  • Wind Aura: Kushala Daora is surrounded by a protective wind aura, which provides it with defense against attacks. Hunters need to wait for opportune moments when the aura subsides to land effective hits.
  • Wind Gusts: Kushala Daora can generate powerful gusts of wind with its wings, pushing back hunters and hindering their movements. Staying vigilant and positioning strategically is crucial to avoid being knocked around by these gusts.
  • Tornadoes: Kushala Daora can summon tornadoes in its vicinity, creating hazardous zones that deal damage over time. Hunters must avoid these tornadoes to prevent taking continuous damage during the battle.
  • Breath Attacks: Kushala Daora breathes a stream of powerful wind in front of it. The breath attack has an extended range and can cover a wide area, making it essential for hunters to stay at a safe distance or find cover.
  • Charging Tackle: Kushala Daora charges at hunters with impressive speed, attempting to trample them. Evading or using terrain effectively is crucial to avoid getting hit by this charging attack.
  • Aerial Cyclone: Kushala Daora takes flight and creates a cyclone around itself, dealing damage to hunters caught in the vortex. Evading to the side or finding cover is necessary to avoid taking damage during this aerial assault.
  • Tail Swipe: Kushala Daora swings its tail in a sweeping motion, creating a wide arc of attack. Timing dodges to avoid the tail swipe is crucial to prevent being knocked back or taking damage.
  • Roar and Wind Barrier: Kushala Daora emits a powerful roar that can stun nearby hunters. Additionally, it can create a temporary wind barrier that deflects projectiles and melee attacks. Timing attacks when the barrier is down is crucial for dealing damage.
  • Flight Transitions: Kushala Daora transitions between ground and aerial phases during the battle. Hunters need to adapt their strategy accordingly, taking advantage of openings when the Elder Dragon is grounded.
  • Tempest Wing Flaps: Kushala Daora flaps its wings forcefully, creating a localized tempest. Hunters caught in this tempest may experience reduced visibility and movement speed, making it challenging to engage the Elder Dragon.

      I have beaten the hight rank version throu brute force I healed throu and tanked throu everything xD but I got him xD was frustrating a ton... Had Girros paralising Great sword used the vitality mantle and also alot of healing and dmg stack... had Divine blessing 3 that helped me with most oft he game thos xD since I wear legiana armor I dropped alot of high rank stuff rly fast like gems etc. but with going into master rank on HR 44 xD(about to fight Teostra + lunastra at once) I imagine the second fight I will need to use the buffs ppl say in here are a must have like windproof 3 and earplugs 5

      • Anonymous

        Can confirm what the hunter below me said, earplugs level 5 and windproof level 3 work wonders (windproof level 5 offers no extra protection over level 3 for this fight). Kushala is quite a pushover in a hand-to-claw fight because it has noodle legs. As long as its not enraged, the wind aura is harmless and you can go wild on its legs for staggers, and it can no longer combo you with roars. It will still toss you around if you're too reckless, but that's true for every monster. I used a Nergigante weapon for maximum staggering/disabling, but thunder weapons for more damage probably work fine as well.
        While it's enraged, you still have to be on the back foot, but it's a far cry from the default frustration.

        Gear for this that's relatively easy to get:
        Bazel Coil alpha/beta, Bazel Vembraces alpha, Earplugs Charm I, High Metal Helm alpha for earplugs level 5. If you have a Bazelgeuse gem, you can either make a level 2 charm or a Bazel Helm and free up the other slot.
        Vespoid Mail alpha, Ingot Greaves alpha for windproof level 3.

        • Anonymous

          Earplugs + wind res + flash + hammer worked for me. Basically it lets you attack him constantly. Flash keeps him on ground, ear plugs mean your combos continue through his screeches, wind res means you can stay close to him without dying, and the hammer provides lots of stunlock. Specifically:
          Brazenbreak I hammer
          High metal helm and mail alpha
          Rath heart braces and greaves alpha
          Rath soul coil beta
          Earplugs charm II

          Oh, and remember that elder dragons mostly ignore palico traps, so a trap-type palico probably isn't the best choice.

              If you like fighting this monster, you are masochist without realizing (even if you don't get hit once). Seriously though, who designed this thing and thought it was good idea?

                Took me a while to find him, I never got into Monster Hunter. But I have this one as a plushy. The plush version is much cuter. But I still appreciate learning what he is. =D

                  For the people struggling, I found dual blades very helpful as before I couldn't get it to the final stage most the time but once I tried using dual blades (one below the fire and ice because I was going for the horns) that it was a piece of cake. I had no food on and didn't die once so if your struggling try them out, make sure to definitely stock up on flash pods including each time you die, but if you don't have flash pods another easy way to deal with a flying daora is to just shoot them with a slinger ammo (preferably crystal burst) every single time they try to attack, it takes their stamina and they wont hit you. Make sure to bring mega barrel bombs as this will make its last stage bearable and it's the only reasonable way to get the horns off (it needs to be less than 20% hp as far as I know for them to break). And finally if its possible get the earplugs effect because for some reason it can roar and then true combo you into a stun from its running if your decently close, which if your by a wall can stun lock you until you die. Other than that try not to get too mad over losing to it because your just gonna be doing worse if you're upset, and you can retry as many times as you need.

                    Has one of the best monster designs, and one of the coolest looking armors of the franchise. That said, his fight is probably the worst in the game, it's the definition of no fun allowed

                      Hey guys I just thought I would give some tips on fighting him…even though I suck at it. So first:ALWAYS BRING FLASH PODS!!!!!! Yeah. When he goes in the air and you shoot a flash pod I think it knocks him out of the sky. Although when he is in a tornado he cannot be flash podded. For skills the most useful is probably wind proof. I always bring Health boost lvl3. But that’s just me. When it comes to elements thunder is a good choice. Blast and Poison also do well. You usually want to keep him softened because if you don’t your weapon will probably be bouncing off. I only ever beat him with either the bow or the gunlacne. Sometimes the Longsword or the Dual Blades. I think that is all I have to say. Have a good day and happy hunting!!

                        Makes a really satisfying "crunch" noise when you it with a hammer. Like a mix of broken glass and rubble.

                          One of the best things to do in the entire game is to just go on an expedition to wherever he is, and literally just vibe with him. Ask him how his day was, make a few jokes, ask him how the family's doing. Such a chill guy, I love him

                              Wind res with a elderseal weapon makes his fight far more bearable, Unless you are using a ranged weapon, then you are pretty much screwed.

                                Kushala is my favourite elder dragon his fights has the best music and last time when I fought him in guiding lands forest area first I was annoyed by his constant flying , but then I saw the majestic atmosphere it was dark and gloomy kushala hovering behind a massive tornado with a god like mysterious presence. It was the best environmental beauty I have seen in Iceborne ever. For his fights I always use velk 4 piece and furious rajang's gs so I can hit his head as hard as possible which suppose to be the only place melee weapons can reach. Please don't hate him☹️

                                  This easily takes the cake as the worst monster in all of MHW. By a damn mile, it's not even close.

                                  Not only does the constant windpressure lock you out of doing anything for most of the hunt, Kushala's tendency to fly for more than 70% of combat makes it impossible for most melee classes. His wind BS adds onto this. The fact that him taking off into the sky also wind pressures you adds onto this.
                                  And normally you'd use flash pods for this sort of nonsense, but in MR, NO MORE! Rightfully so, flashlocking a monster was kinda dumb, but with Kushala it bloody well deserved it, and it seems to fly even more in MR.

                                  To add insult to injury, wind resist 5 doesn't even do much against him, as one would sort of expect (the skill is called wind resist, why doesn't it help against the wind dragon?). To properly counter his wind BS, you need "wind pressure negated", which you can only get by having a HH, or by having HIS ARMOUR. WHAT SORT OF CATCH 22 IS THIS.

                                  You can't grapple onto him half of the time due to his wind shield, and whenever he walks past you, you get stunned for what seems like 7 hours.

                                  AND THE TORNADOES. OH THE DAMN TORNADOES. YEAH I JUST LOVE NOT BEING ABLE TO USE 3/4'S OF THE ****ING ARENA.

                                  I don't have any respect for anyone that worked on designing, testing and implementing Kushala, and honestly, they seem like a liability to the company.

                                    As if the wind aura, flying spam and tornadoes weren't enough, Kushala's roars also true combo into some attacks. Fun.

                                      Honestly I really love fighting him. In HR all you have to do is use flash pods and in MR you can do him fight him decently well with a GL or LS I mainly like him since he is very Challenging

                                        I've seen some other people conplaining about this fight, but personally I didn't struggle too much with it. The wind was annoying, yeah, but never that much of a bother. I was using the Kadachi Pillar III Insect Glaive, and whenever he was in the air, I would just use the aerial attacks of the glaive to try and mount him, to throw him back to the ground. Still haven't done Master Rank tho, as I don't have the DLC. Even then, it's probably the 2nd easiest of the four elder dragons (counting Nergi), Vaal Hazak being the easiest to me, with Nergigante as the hardest. So overall, I'd say the Insect Glaive is probably the best weapon for this guy, but not 100% sure. Would love to hear other suggestions.

They should be staggered by the slinger ammo they drop like any other monsters, that was always my strat with LS. It's still effective for wyverns but I love GL now. Not to mention I hate the flash pod strat it's cheesing.

                                              If hes going to his nest soon, make sure to save your temporal mantle there. There are a lot of crystal bursts on the lower level of elder's recess. When he goes down like, grab something you can use to hit the big crystals since hes just standing right below it, BUT IF HE SEES YOU then run since he just charges straight to you. Get the wind resistance or sth if you have space (free space, not sacrificing them). It'll help you on the wind aura near him but even that should be helpful if you need to go near him.

                                              Just keep beating up the normal kushala until you can perfectly read his moves. Once done, go beat up the T and AT versions of him, its just the same thing but takes more time.

                                                I used a bow and had no problem with the shoot n’ scoot tactic. The only problem I had with Kushala was his nest.
                                                Kushala : how dare you infiltrate my nest! Take a tornado!
                                                Me: Ha! It’ll take more than one tornado to stop me from skinning you alive!
                                                Kushala: You underestimate my power!
                                                And before I know it his nest is literally covered in tornados. I never took flash pods against him but I can see it would be very wise. Also I would not take a melee weapon against him but that’s just me. Thank you for taking your time to read this. Have a great day!

                                                  Crystalburst is quite effective against it. Not only it staggers Kushala as it diminishes its wind aura as well.

                                                      Takes some getting used to, flash pod spam for non iceborne hunts and he is no trouble. You wall slam him in mr repeatedly , just bring a rock steady or temporal. He can be wall slammed twice in a row, he won’t enrage right away as long as your damage isn’t too extreme and you minimize pressing circle( too much will enrage). He also derages faster and enters yellow more easily. If you want to fight him fairly, use elder seal or dragon pod to weaken his power. Use a ranged weapon or clutch spam his wings( unless he flies through his own whirl wind, you’ll be surprised how often you can successfully clutch him, most of his air attacks are safe)

Seriously, I dont get how a person could be so damaged. The fight is so badly designed that the only way they could make it 'more difficult' for master rank was to utterly gut the one reliable way of fighting it; flash bombing the ****er into the dirt. Because Crapcom screwed up so badly designing the fight, they decide to punish players for their own ineptitude and give us this attricity. And given how terrible literally all the Elder Dragon fights are, the fact that this one can stand out so much is a testament to how bad it is. So yeah; **** Kushala Daora, **** the guy who made it and **** Crapcom for bringing it back.

Of course, Master Rank monsters gain much faster resistance against it if used to often, but its still something that helped me through every Kushala hunt. Using it sparingly of course. I discovered this when I fought AT Kushala Daora back in High Rank. I’m not sure if this always does the trick (in fact; if you use it to much it won’t do anything anymore), but please let me know if this was helpful.

                                                                Kushala is piss easy with the Raging Brachydios Great sword... When I fought it i thought i was fighting HR Kushala but I was actually fight MR Kushala. XD

                                                                • Anonymous

                                                                  Kushala is a hard hitter for the most part, but if there is another elder dragon and he goes there he usually gets trashed. I took a bow and had little problems, but I suggest you hit and dodge regardless the weapon. Also he is insufferable when he fights in his nest. Hope this was helpful. Have a great day!

                                                                      • Anonymous

                                                                          • Anonymous

That being said, unless you are killing it to advance story or get parts for the "Fire and Ice" dual blades there is no point in ever fighting it. The armor you get is only useful for fighting it specifically and the ice element from its weapon trees is sub-par at best. You can literally get better gear from fights that are 100% gimmick based like this one is.

                                                                            • Anonymous

                                                                                        If you wanna solo him but suck at fighting him, take my advice, bring a bunch of mega bombs and materials to make more, bring ghillie, temporal, and/or rocksteady mantle and switching them up during cooldown, and use the bombs whenever possible. Personally when i have temporal mantle on, I place down mega barrel bombs near him when he is on the ground, and place it under him when he is hovering above me. When 2 mega barrel bombs go off underneath him, it usually knocks him down (assuming he is hovering). Also quick thing to note, if you are going to go for this build, the "Bomber" decoration is good to have on since it increases exploding item damage. Also, i usually manage to beat him within the 35-45 minute margin, when i solo Arch-tempered Kushala Daora using this method. Although you will probably be faster cause i ran most of the time due to the fact that he can 1-2 shot me and i refuse to change my gear loadout for some cockamaney reason.

Capcom needs to fix the hitbox for the head or fix the actual damage at which the part breaks. maybe they added another 0 by accident when programing the values so that it doesn't break until after the dmg totals more than the creature's health. its aggravating when you spend a whole 24 hours of game time farming him and NO HORNS!!!

If you have troubles finding a good team fight him alone with a gajalaka and use lots of bombs. Play carefuly and look out for him preparing tornados and that large deadly windblast. It's much easier that way as it would be with a random team and that gigantic healthpool. Good hunting!

Design and execution-wise obviously. Really*****ty and meaningless enemy design; sloppy hitboxes and stagger. This is how you literally ruin a mechanical game and turn it into a cheese/equipment fest.
