User blog comment:BannedLagiacrus/Monster Appreciation Week: Kushala Daora (5th Gen)/@comment-4899131-20180804123910

4th gen Kushala was easily one of my favourite elders. In this gen, the design & sounds really bring out the metallic qualities very well, BUT.............

The fight is both awfully frustrating & frustratingly awful, even with Kush's set bonus & rocksteady mantle for the nest areas, and especially in the tight confines of the area in which it starts in Ancient Forest.

Tempered Kushala? Tried it once, somehow won & not touched it since.

Arch Tempered Kushala? Yeah right, like I'm going anywhere near that!

Thankfully, Kushala gave me both crowns in 37 hunts, so I never have to go near this travesty of a metal windbag ever again!
