In World's Elder Recess or Guiding Lands lava areas, Kushala's wind tornados will pick up the lava and produce fire tornados. Now under normal circumstances Kushala will NOT go into Elder Recess' lava zone unless you lead it there while it's enraged or with challenger mantle on, but you can encounter and summon Kushala to the Guiding Lands lava area where it will fling fire tornados.

kushala's dev history/impact on the series is both interesting nad hilarious. the funniest part of him was originally, when he was being made, he had the wind aura but it only had the wind preasure thing so gunners trivialized his fight. the dev mainly responsible for kushala wasn't happy so they made it so his wind nullifies ranged attacks unless you hit his head or tail. as for his mpact on the future, this is more so within 2nd gen, tigrex's entire existance was nothing more than a counter to kushala. kushala is over the top, for the series at the time, wind magic so they wanted to step back to prevent the series from losing its blend/middle ground between believable ish science fiction biology so it didn't go true fantasy as a whole. elders always blur the line a bit but their concern at the time made sense. as a consiquence of this, tigrex was playing it very safe, i still like him but this is a fact. he's physical power, screaming and relatively relentless agrees ion. tigrex works and to make him stand out from something like diablos they gave him a unique shape, with the sudo-wyvern skeleton he introduced. this continued for the rest of the 2nd gen, for flagships at least, with nargacuga being the same shape but a panther/bird with a rattle snake like tail and some ninja inspiration. Rise kushala is my favorite, though they kind of overdid it with making him more grounded so rusted likely won't happen because that was part of his shtick. i much prefer Rise giving him his MH4U attacks/making him use ice sometimes and his tornadoes being smaller mobile obstacles is much better than the large/stationary area denial moves. no mention of the MHW ultimate attack with the huge double wind bast? it is a long wind up i guess and is only massively impactful if you guard since you can't block it without a rare skill.

Another change made to Kushala's wind barrier in Rise is that now Pierce type shots can completely pass through it and won't be deflected and/or reflected. Although they did also change its hit zones for ranged attacks in Rise compared to W:I. It was maybe an attempt balance it. Only its front limbs are really weak to shot type damage and piercing doesn't work too well on that part.

I think a really fun sub/rare species for Kushala would be a Brass Kushala. It gets small fire attacks, like a quick and small fireball it does a decent amount. It leaves small spots of lingering flames on the ground which can deal damage. When the Kushala makes a tornado, if it starts or moves over one of those lingering bits of flames, the flames get swept up and the tornados turn into fire tornados. Maybe the tornados could also leave fire along the ground too, idk

Now thats one of my favorite monsters, i was waiting for his video and you did cover him very well but sadly he is hated by majority of the MH community because he flies too often and people don't like gimmicky fights. I can do nothing but accept the current version we have in Rise that flies less and doesn't have the wind barrier active all the time but, i will always prefer the old one that flies alot and has his gimmick on for the whole fight. Why because in older games Kushala teaches you many of the valuable lessons. He has a wind barrier and there are many ways to negate it either by using poison weapons, most hunters craft one weapon with the highest raw and don't try the other statuses but game rewards experimenting (he's very weak to thunder as well) or using an armor that has wind resistance, slot the said resistance decorations or either use a hunting horn that provides wind resistance melody. The game doesn't explain it how but you as a hunter learn from experiences, or by using the poison throwing knives the guild provides you in the supply box so you can experiment and learn by yourself, or if you are a hunter that pays attention to the old wyverian ramblings he also provides good information on him. Better yet you can buy a magazine in game that explains this as well. But here's my favorite way to negate the wind barrier, position your self strictly to either his head or tail and both are really sweet hitzones. The game rewards you for good positioning, if you stay one foot away from either of the sweet hitzones and attack from there you will not be affected by his wind barrier. Also his head has a threshold that other monsters have, that when you do certain amounts of damage, it will be knocked out. So if you position yourself good and do punish him on openings you can create a loop of knocking down a Kushala till it dies. As for his flying alot, that's not an issue either because the game teaches you two lessons here and rewards prepared hunters. Have a good stock of flash bombs or suffer the consequences, what's that? You forgot your flash bombs? Sad, well now you can choose to either cancel the hunt and loose the registration fee or... Stand your ground, watch his behavior while he flies, position your self accordingly to punish him and turn the hunt into your favor. Despite being a very old monster that in the current recent games, he is no longer a threat but i will always respect him. For making me the hunter that iam today lol.

I don't like the 5th gen Kushala in general that includes Rise and MHWI, with that said you can still easily dunk Iceborne Kushala out of the air like the old games by doing a charged slash or an amped elemental discharge. Beyblade him with dual blades from the ledge, do the jumping attack after charging with the lance, do hammer uppercut, play aerial sword and shield or better yet become a helicopter and defy gravity, mount him with IG 5 times in a single hunt. I don't know about you but Kushala's fight is one of my top favorite fights. Alongside all the flying wyverns, that includes Legiana and his Shrieking counterpart as well. Hope Legiana returns.

Honestly, fighting him in World as a HH main was actually... fun. Side note: last I played that game was before Iceborne was released on PC. Having wind pressure negated basically 100% of the time and him being relatively easy to hit on the head made him such a blast to hunt. So when I heard that people didn't like him, it took me a while to realize that my playstyle was probably the only enjoyable way to fight him. But in Rise, I stopped using the HH, and fighting him again was not only refreshing because he has a lot of new moves, it was also more fun that World. I can't imagine fighting him using any other weapon in World, but in Rise, I already beat him with 3 different without losing my mind. Huge props to the devs who made him so much more enjoyable to fight.

I hated Kushala in World the first time I fought him, and he can certainly be annoying when you get perpetually wind blasted, staggered and beat up. But Kushala actually grew on me over time, when I started using elderseal and greatsword the fight became a lot more fun for me and he doesn’t bother me nearly as much now, I actually kinda like Kushala. I can understand why some may find him annoying, but I don’t think it’s nearly as bad as some people believe he is. Rocksteady mantle plus greatsword is the antidote to Kushala. You can use negate all wind pressure but I don’t because I lose a lot of damage when using his armor and I don’t play hunting horn. He’s not a bad monster but the persistent tornados are annoying

Soloing MR Kushala in Iceborne is probably the worst experience I've ever had in all the monster hunter games I played. I'm cautiously hyped for Sunbreak Kushala, but I really want to be satisfied with it, and honestly with the direction Rise Kushala went, it can be a really good fight.
