Khezu: Flying Wyverns

Learn how to take down the Khezu, a blind Flying Wyvern in Monster Hunter Generations. Discover its weaknesses, attacks, and how to avoid them.

Alright, let's talk about the Khezu. This guy is a real classic, and honestly, a bit of a weird one. It's a Flying Wyvern that lives in caves and relies on its super-sensitive smell to find you, since it's totally blind. Don't let its lack of eyes fool you though, it's surprisingly accurate! It can also stretch its neck out like crazy to chomp at you from a distance, which is pretty unsettling to watch. The absolute best thing you can do against this monster is hit it with **Fire** attacks – it absolutely hates fire.

Here's a quick rundown of where you might find it:

Khezu has some nasty tricks up its sleeve, so let's break down its moves:

• Forward Chomp: This comes in two flavors. Sometimes it's a quick bite right in front of it. Other times, it'll stretch its neck out in a long, looping pattern to catch you even if you're a bit to the side. Seriously, it looks super creepy.
• Side Chomp: A pretty basic bite to the side. It's not very strong and usually easy to dodge.
• Double 180 Tailswing: Khezu will swing its tail around twice, doing a full 360. Even though it's quick, its tail hangs pretty low, so if you're underneath it, you can still get smacked.
• Triple Electro Ball: This one's dangerous. Khezu will anchor itself with its tail and spit out three electric orbs that fly out in different directions, covering a lot of ground. Watch out, these can paralyze you!
• Body Shock: The Khezu will electrify its entire body, creating a small lightning storm around itself. It can do this up close or over a wider area.
• Pounce: It'll leap forward to try and slam into you. When it's enraged, it'll electrify itself before the pounce, meaning you get shocked *and* slammed. Double whammy!
• Cave Slam: If you're fighting it in a cave, it might climb up to the ceiling and then drop down on you. Keep an eye out above!
• Pin Attack: This is a unique one. Khezu can hang from the cave ceiling by its tail and swing its head around. If it catches you, you'll get pinned. You'll need to quickly wiggle the Circle Pad to break free or use a Dung Bomb to make it let go.

When you manage to break off parts of Khezu, you can get some decent rewards:

Remember, hitting Khezu with Fire is your best bet. Good luck out there!
