What is the Elderseal level of a Kinsect?
Every dragon-element weapon has an Elderseal level, the strength of weakening an elder dragon's power.
Well, except kinsects. Even Switch Axes' Dragon Phial has an Elderseal level, but I have yet to see a kinsect's Elderseal level.
How strong are they? Do Kinsects have low, medium or high Elderseal level? Or not? Or do they depend on a kinsect lineage?
Best Answer
With an addon called HunterPie (PC only, use at your own risk), you can actually see the Elderseal 'value' (like an ailment value e.g., paralysis value) of a monster.
Striking a Dragon element Kinsect yielded 2~3 Elderseal, which was the same value as striking with Alatreon Star, which has a low Elderseal. Striking with weapons with higher Elderseal levels yielded higher Elderseal values. Also, this value did not change as I change the weapon. Thus, we can safely assume Kinsects' Elderseal plays at the same level as low Elderseal weapons.

Elderseal will also reduce the wind aura for Kushala Daora. Its wind aura, which works like a barrier, can get strong enough to push hunters away and is particularly frustrating for melee users. The aura will also prevent long-range weapon damage.Monster Hunter World | Elderseal Explained
