I hate when people treat regular and rusted kusha like they are different monsters, but they're not, the rusted one is just a regular one after its scales have rusted (when you're always surrounded by storms, it's a part of life).

And if you don't like the wind barrier, you can do a lot of things about it: Cut the tail, break the head, poison it, use jump attacks, use a weapon with super armour, get an armour set with wind res, and so on.
