User blog comment:BannedLagiacrus/Monster Appreciation Week: Kushala Daora(4th Gen)/@comment-5020152-20151002220100/@comment-5167887-20151004152351

I'm pretty much with Cotton for this, there are much more badass and intimidating Eldies than Kush.

The base idea for Kush deserves some good points, we don't see that much wind-controlling dragons in games. However, i find it rather... soft, for a metal-plated dragon. AND THAT BARRIER.

Well, since i get to HBG that thing down with pierce ammo, barrier isn't a problem anymore, an what is left is the design of the creature, which i find pretty meh. That must be bad experience, but hunting a Kush has always turned out to be a chore. Fast-moving, fast charging, uneven tornado trajectories for 4th gen... And all of this doesn't help to love it. No seriously i can't find anything badass or imposing when thinking about Kush.

Out of all Eldies, this one is the lowest in my classment, down with Teostra which i just find odd, with a pretty hypnotic BGM. My fav Eldies must be the most recent: Shagaru, Gogma and Dala, with Amatsu being not too far below.
