Kushala Daora is unique Elder Dragon capable of harnessing the power of wind. Its skin is plated with metal, which it has to shed occasionally, and it will defend itself fiercely from Hunters. It maintains a windy barrier around its body, capable of knocking Hunters to their feet and deflecting arrows or bullets. Kushala can be highly aggressive, attacking Towns, but defend themselves more directly with blasts of wind, which are capable of freezing Hunters solid in the Snowy Mountains.

A typical Kushala has silver-colored skin constructed of a unique metal grown naturally by the individual. The rarer Kushala is one whose metalic skin has rusted to form a dark brown/red crust covering the skin. This skin is (at a later date) shed in a similar fashion to that of snakes, to reveal a softer, shinier grey.

In-Game DescriptionEdit

Monster Hunter Freedom 2 / Monster Hunter Freedom Unite
MHFU-Kushala Daora Icon.png
A metal plated dragon known as the tempest of wind. Eyewitnesses report violent storms alongside the dragon, and its wide range means towns may be attacked.



NotesEdit

  • Damage accumulation will be separated into Elder quests, Guild 1-star to 5-stars (aka Guild Low Rank quests), Guild 6-stars to 8 stars (aka Guild High Rank quests) and Guild G-Lvl 3 Stars. So if a hunter fights Kushala in an Elder Quest, one must not expect the damage to carry into either the Guild Low or High Rank quests, and vice versa.
    • This principle applies to all Elder Dragon damage accumulation in the game.
  • A Kushala Daora skin is found on top of Area 8 in the Snowy Mountains, which can be mined for Khezu Whelps.
  • After shedding its old skin, Kushala Daora's new skin glows pure white before becoming metallic grey, as seen in the Kushala Daora Ecology Video.
  • Kushala Daora has two themes, although only one is heard in MHFU.
  • Destroying its horn or cutting its tail will completely nullify its ability to create a wind barrier.
  • The easiest way to attack the Kushala while it still has its wind aura up is to attack its head. However, attacking the head is very dangerous; if wind barrier strikes, you will be knocked down, and become completely vulnerable to any further attacks.
  • The rusted version of Kushala Daora is fought in the Town.
  • In the Elder Quests, in order to make the Kushala Daora flee, you must decrease his health by 30% within 25 minutes.
  • In Monster Hunter Frontier, Kushala Daora rests in Area 6 of the Jungle, when weakened enough.
