==={{DQ7}}===

In the [[Nintendo 3DS]] version, it can also be learned at rank 6 as a [[Sage]], rank 5 as a [[Pirate]], rank 2 as a [[Druid]], and rank 5 as a [[Hero (vocation)|Hero]]. However, it is an advanced spell and can only be learned permanently by mastering the [[Draguar (vocation) |Draguar]] vocation.

===[[Dragon Quest IX]]===
==={{DQ8}}===
Kaswoosh is available to [[Minstrel]]s at level 36 and [[Luminary|Luminaries]] at level 45. It costs 26 MP to cast.
Kaswoosh is learned by [[Angelo]] at level 32. It possesses a base damage of 64~144 for 8 {{MP}}, and will steadily grow towards a cap of 120~200 damage once Angelo's {{Wisdom}} surpasses 450.
*As with other third-tier spells, Kaswoosh was modified in the {{3DS}} port. The base range is now 112~152, and the cap is 164~224 at 520 {{Wisdom}}.
 
The enemies [[Dark minister]], [[Statue of Angelo]], and [[Wight king]] also use it.
It can be cast by the Infamous Monsters [[Barry Wight]], [[Harry (Recruit)]], [[Lumpy]], and [[Priestley]].
 
==={{DQ9}}===
Kaswoosh is learned by [[Minstrel]]s at level 36 and {{Luminaries V}} at level 45, requiring 26 {{MP}} to cast.
Rips through a group of enemies with a ferocious whirlwind, dealing 80~180 base damage. The spell will begin to reach it's cap of 155~255 once the caster's {{Magical Might}} surpasses 200.
 
Kaswoosh will deal 30~130 damage when cast by an enemy.
 
==={{DQ10}}===
[[Minstrel]]s will learn the spell upon reaching level 51, {{Luminaries V}} at level 50, and [[Pirate]]s at level 65. All vocations can cast it for 12 {{MP}} as of the 2.1 update. The spell's formula is ''({{Magical Might}} - 79) x 0.54 + 57~87'', leading to a base range of 57~87 and max range of 177~207. The calculation alters when the caster's might exceeds 300, becoming ''({{Magical Might}} - 300) / 20 + 177~207'' for a new cap of 211~241.
The tornadoes conjured by the incantation radiate out from the caster for 15 meters in a counter-clockwise patter, striking enemies within the range multiple times.
*In the ''[[Dragon Quest X Offline|Offline]]'' version of the game, the {{Hero 10}} can learn Kaswoosh at level 51 as a [[Minstrel]] and 51 as a {{Luminary V}}, while [[Raguas]] learns it at level 45 and [[Fuura]] learns it at level 46. As the game has changed back to a traditional turn-based battle system, Kaswoosh deals wind damage to a group of enemies for 10 {{MP}}. The damage range is 72~245 dependent on the caster's {{Magical Might}}.
 
==={{DQ11}}===
{{Serena 11}} will learn Kaswoosh during a story event, and can cast it for 20 {{MP}}. Kaswoosh's base range is 124~252 and the maximum range is 162~290. Because {{Serena 11}} never develops '''any''' {{Magical Might}} save for equipment bonuses and seeds, the growth range for the spell is 1~250 magical might.
*On the enemy side, it can be cast by [[Hyperanemon]] and [[Grey gordon|Malicious grey gordon]].
 
==={{DQM}}===
Known as '''Infermost''' in this game, it is an upgraded form of [[Swoosh|Infermore]]. [[Swoosh|Infermore]] grows into Infermost when the {{MFamilies}} reaches level 27 with 104 max {{MP}} and 134 {{INT}}.

Kaswoosh is the third tier spell of [[Isla]] and can be learned by investing 16 skill points. After charging her [[Swoosh]] spell for a short time, she can cast Kaswoosh, which creates four whirlwinds in front of her for 26 {{MP}}. The whirlwinds last for 5 seconds, allowing [[Isla]] to rack up lots of hits and damage in conjunction with her other attacks.

Kaswoosh can be learned by [[Vis mager (Dragon Quest IV)|Vis mager]] at level 52, [[Wight king]] at level 54, and [[Teeny sanguini]] and [[Wrecktor (Dragon Quest V)|Wrecktor]] through [[Talent Blossoming]]. It costs 108 {{MP}} to cast, has a range of three squares in front of the caster, and inflicts major [[Woosh]]-type spell damage to all enemies in a range of three squares horizontally.

==Trivia==
Prior to the debut of animated spells in {{V}}, Kaswoosh was depicted as being two powerful blades of wind striking enemies in a Greek cross pattern. This is still reflected in the spell's Japanese name of Bagi''cross''. When it was decided that the spell would be animated as a twister, the idea of striking enemies with a burst of holy wind would be retained and manifest in {{VI}} as [[Pearly Gates]] (Grand ''Cross'' in Japanese).
