How to Break Monster Parts

How to Beat Kushala Daora

• Focus on Breaking Its Head
• Use Poison to Weaken Its Wind Strength
• Be Careful When Kushala Daora Is Half-Health

Focus on Breaking Its Head

Kushala Daora's main mechanic is its Wind Veil that protects its body from long range attacks and makes approaching it difficult. Focus on breaking its body parts to make this wind veil dissipate.

We highly recommend focusing on breaking Kushala Daora's head whenever you can. Successfully doing so prevents Kushala Daora from using this Wind Veil mechanic afterward.

Use Poison to Weaken Its Wind Strength

Alternatively, you can inflict poison to weaken Kushala Daora's wind strength and temporarily dissipate Kushala Daora's Wind Veil. We recommend equipping Rathian or Pink Rathian weapons when attempting this strategy.

Status Ailments and Effects

Be Careful When Kushala Daora Is Half-Health

Kushala Daora unleashes powerful whirlwinds when it only has half health remaining. Breaking Kushala Daora's parts is still your focus, but be cautious of its increased aggression.
