All ailments negated does apply to stun. Also, impact waves has huge KO and stun potential. If you play 3 impact wave songs at once and encore it, it can do 1100 damage on a wakeup attack
Oh good to know, iceborne just come to pc and i have no idea about max damge of 1100 raw build or elemental build and how the max damage encore for 3 dragon wave build
@@HandiTips horn is just the best, I've only gotten into it near the end of basegame, but I actually played up a new charakter with HH only, and it was sooo cool, and when I'm in a multiplayer lobby (I solo 80-90%) and you post a quest ppl have any reason to go on, they will :D
Perfectly put; being a good HH user makes you the catalyst for a lot of team surges. Between stunning the monsters and providing all kinda useful buffs, the HH seems to be much more useful in Iceborne than it did in the base game and I'm glad. I don't think I've earned the right to call myself a Hunting Horn main yet but I definitely enjoy how much more powerful they feel.
Agree 100% with every sentiment. It really did need the boost it's gotten in iceborne. The fact you've taken up the HH is right enough my friend! Welcome aboard!
Man, this video is really nice. I have i think 500+ hunts with the horn, and finding other horn users is a blessing. Although i am a sucker for the Attack up boost, if i find one of my friends using an attack up horn, i'd be wasting the song potential if i take another horn with attack up. With that said, i do have a couple of suggestions. The nightshade paolumu horn has the exact same song list as teo's horn, but you have the sleep ailment. I get reliably inflict 2 sleeps in a 4 player hunt. The master rank vespoid horn inflicts paralysis and the song set can get really defensive against ice monsters, The electric bass/guitar sounds so good. It's rather a shame that some of the sounds of the horns were downgraded, like the legiana or rathian horn, but i'm happy that this horn sounded great.
Thank you so much for the kind words! There really does need to be more HH users in the community! The amount power and effect you can have on a hunt is too great not to utilize!! Don't be hard on yourself for wanting that attack up! That's why we love monster hunter. You don't always have to be "meta" you can play your way guilt free!! I echo your sentiments on both of those horns! The Nyx (Nightshade) got me through some very tough hunts early on.
@@MrBlainev 2 pc grathian for divine blessing 5. Otherwise, you can basically put whatever you based on preference. Beginner (how I started) can start with earplugs, technically can encore anytime for buffs. As long as the recovery up and extended recovery buffs are in (together with blessing 5), you feel like you are immortal even while facing tempered elder.
@@imbanett0 nah im not a beginner. I misunderstood what ya were talking about. I thought it was something for HH. Since i am beginner at that lol. Im MR 220 lol. Usually run LS, GS or CB. Just started using gunlance and HH
@@MrBlainev So obviously there's safi horns now. But the horns i can recommend are the velkana horn for the basic atk and def up songs. My favorite is of the bazel valdi rooksearer (from bazelgeuse) with atk up but no def, instead it heals. Also a good one is teostra's horn, as it buffs speed and prevents non elemental status like effluvium. With its speed boost active its like you're springing while your horn is out
Thank you for the vid! I have been a Hunting Horn user since MH Freedom 2 on the PSP. It is such an amazing weapon. Whenever I meet other Hunting Horn players, we just completely get each other. I will be checking out your other videos! Take care!
I know it's over an year after this video release. But not that long ago I started playing Switch axe, few weeks ago I starter embracing Lance. Now? It's Hunting Horn. And O MY GOD how good it feels to just gracefully slam this behemoth of a weapon into monster face. Mobility is incredible, moveset is great, songs are amazing addition to team play. I played like 10 Safi sieges with one team just because we're annihilating red dragon. I was damage/healer build while others were pure dps. Giving them earplugs, hp recovery from songs and items... I can't stand how amazing this feels to contribute other players in destroying monsters :D Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that HH is clearly support. Pretty often I outdamaged my teammates and get natural aggro so they needed to take it because songs were running out 😅
I'm glad you mentioned the Stam buffs the HH can give. Ive seen what a party of 1 HH and 3 DB users can do with it. Combined with an Impact Mantle on HH, the fight turns into another JoJo meme of a specific someone getting kicked while down. I've also seen what those Stam buffs do for Bow users. Now those fights feel a speed run.
Man you are the absolute king of the Monster Hunter World ...i adore you and your videos you just gave me the passion to continue my lonly long and hard journey in the iceborne
I have just picked up the HH... I am about 2 weeks in and I love this thing so much. I am new to the franchise with World, but all last year I used LS the most, followed by Hammer and Bow. 600hrs all together. Always saw the HH just waving at me in the background lol. I totally planned on another 600hrs doing the same thing but kept seeing that damn horn and thought, why not? SUPER GLAD I DID!! Get off the fence and join the band friend
I just picked up hunting horn 3 days ago, thanks for this video, very enlightening, and my friend who started main duel blades missed that stamina max and recovery when I switched back to my main hammer, I will try to make more awesome builds with the horn (not all that great at attacking with it yet tho)
This video along with how the Jho HH looks got me like "gimme" to this weapon....oh look it's his end tree HH in my inventory after 1 Crook later. No fr GL, HBG, and now HH. You make this weapon class look legit. Along with Coaslayer, yall are my heros.
Great video im in!! Been playing MHW since the PS4 launch. 2nd day playing hunting horn. ITS MY FAVORITE WEAPON! Once i master this weapon i will have soooo many squad requests. i can see it now!
Actually it's the polar opposite. Being stunned is considered an ailment so yes it counts and divine protection just decreases your damage receive value not your stun value
I've actually been looking to get into HH and this video has proven very useful, in no small part due to the fact that I've been completly lost as to what horns I should be making and have largely been sticking with the MR Jho horn, which seems like a good all-rounder. But this video has given me some clue as to what horns I should be grabbing.
Depends what kind of build you're going for. Attack up L is a must in the competitive horn community. I like the Brute Tigrex horn but Valkhana, Jho, Shara are all pretty good. The sexiest is obviously Zinogres
I'm in the midst of getting footage for the review of that horn! I absolutely love it. From the look of it to the song selection, it's a 'blast'! Heh heh 😏
The combination of health rec L and extended health recovery pretty much eliminate the need for potions. Given you're not getting batted back and forth by the monster. Did a Savage a Jho last night and only used one mega potion the whole fight
3U was my 2nd MH game (3: Tri being my 1st) I played and I immediately fell in love with the HH. One of my friends mocked me initially until he started getting some awesome buffs. Fast forward to now, he prefers that I use HH vs any other weapon class (especially early on in a game) and has a respect for the weapon.
I swear I really want to try out the the hunting horn but it's hard for me to get out of my comfort zone (switch axe) like it's hard to want to master a new weapon when you haven't mastered your main one yet
Been a hunting horn main since 3, will always love my dooter, I did AT xeno a couple of days ago with negate environmental damage in an SOS, I got so much praise
I might be late but i never played mh before and i started world with the hh and instantly understanded how to played not at his fullest but not bad either and i love it
I'm mr 400 and just started usin hunting horn, and idk why i started using it before, it became one of my favourites weapons, it is so fun to play and great mechanics
Just got iceborne expansion didn't know what to pick as main weapon but chose HH I feel like a beast with that giant flute in my hands! I like the video with the different HH's gonna try mixing builds up now when I get higher MR.
fun fact post safi jiiva, all the safi horns have a level 4 deco slot and conveniently they made a sonorous jewel plus that gives you all 2 levels of the horn maestro skill. very convenient for jumping into hunting horn. at least thats what i did.
I love the hunting horn!!! The echo wave does some MASSIVE KO damage when tripled and encored. Right now I’m just starting off in iceborne, can’t get past barrioth...but I have full KO boost jewels and I’m constantly triggering that on the monsters.
I literally started playing HH for the first time 2 days ago after playing MH for like 3 years. Created a new character dedicated to HH and LBG (basically a support build), buffed up, did the L2 spin2win up until Anjanath and I gotta say - I deal smaller numbers than a hammer but end up with better DPS just because monster can't move for crap. If I knew I'd have better CC than any other weapon I'd fall in love with HH a long time ago. I basically feel like that oblivious dude in romcoms that chased multiple uninterested or unworthy women ignoring that girl in glasses he works with.
Hey! That's why you broaden your horizons! I play as many weapon classes I can because some monsters are just tough match ups for certain weapons. Sonorous really is one of my favorites too though!! 😁😁
Hunting horn is my third most used weapon. But it's so boring, I use it as a service to the hunters of the world. No one wants to play support so I bite the bullet. But I'm happy ppl like you exist who enjoy it, We need more of you
Just started dooting few days back. You know what, I just got an A for one of the arena quest which I couldnt with other weapon classes (okay, other options are not my main weapons but I definitely play them much more than HH). It is extremely satisfying, because of how powerful, yet supportive it is, potential KOs etc etc. Now my problem is struggling to get and awaken all safi HH.
I just got into hammer. Turns out I like blunt better. I played hh before and really liked it. Got tired of doing buffs, but I came back to it and love it. My favorite weapon. So cool how you can heal yourself, raise your attack, defense, your health recovery, etc. I feel like a mage with it! So many things it can do there other weapons just can't.
Thanks for the video. I used PC so the IB haven't come out yet but HH makes things becomes too easy sometimes that I do pick up other things here and there for fun. But when it gets serious? HH for the win!!!
I know this video is very old. But I just wanted to add that if you don't have horn maestro decos, you can make some by pouring some spare decos or ones that you don't use in the item melder.
mr kulu yaku hh is pretty underrated, I'm currently using 3 teostra armor pieces for master's touch while on max critical eye(40% affinity), add up lvl 4 attack boost (5% aff.) and max Weakness.ploit (30%-50% aff.), what makes it better is the horn itself, it has 25% aff. then add all those up makes it 100% aff. + Master's Touch = Infinite white Sharpness ...then you can also sneak in the health booster charm lul
For straight damage? Acidic Glavenus "The Rasping Ballad" One of my favorites to use that does great damage and looks beautiful, Velkhana "Sonorous Eisfyl" Shara Ishvalda's horn "Austere Paradise is great too if you wake up the dragon element Hope it helps! Enjoy and welcome to the fam!! 😁
if you want quality of life, though, you should go with the teo or nightshade paolumo horn. you won't get knocked out, you won't go to sleep, no poison, bleed or whatever. and there is a HH to counter almost every elder dragon. sometimes, i think it is OP as hell.
Give it a shot! In all honesty I really think you should give any weapon you have even the slightest interest a try. You never know what could come of it!
i switched from hammer to HH, too. i only miss the spin to win, but other than that, the HH is worth the effort to learn it. i would love to run into some more dooters.
I wanna start using the Hunting Horn but the sheer amount of songs there r and learning what each one does, and learning to play them on the fly. It honestly scares me and kinda discourages me from learning it
Solo HH main here. Not a pro but still I’m getting by in the cold lands haha so don’t be afraid to pick up that horn and play the song of our people.. doot.... doot..
i only play solo horn. its way easier to headsnipe when the monster isnt chasing 4 people around. not to mention ko threshholds are much higher in multiplayer
My god thank you! I was looking for some kind of video showing the new songs. Does "horn maestro" also affect the duration of the new bubbles? Would love to see two builds: 1. The super recovery: Vaal set bonus + recovery speed up + recovery up + immunizer + the songs: "recovery speed" & "extended health recovery" + the food skill "felyne medic" and maybe a health augment (loved my build before iceborne with the bazel-horn - would love to see how "extended health recovery works into it aswell. I´m a pc player and have to wait until iceborne drops for pc..) 2. the dodge set: Evade window + evade extender + the song "speed boost + evade window up" and maybe the evasion mantle aswell. Would be so nice if i could do some testing especially with the health regain build
Hey Andreas! To answer your question, yes it does! (You'll love your builds even more I promise!) I'll do my best to incorporate your builds into a vid! Evasion Mantle might be overkill on the second. You'll notice a huge difference with the speed boost + evade window alone! Happy to help a fellow HH user. Can't wait till Iceborne comes your way!
Yes, the bubbles are extended by Maestro. Extended Recovery is essentially the Vaal bonus but for free and with slightly better healing potential, so you most likely won't get any use out of it and the Vaal set together. I still have to test how skills affect the song and whether it interacts with Recovery Speed. From testing, the Speed+Evade song gives around Evade Window 2. May or may not stack with the skill itself.
@@HandiTips it's hard to say since other songs that give skills don't stack with the skill (Earplugs, Wind Res, etc). I'd probably guess it works the same way just based on patterns, but we'd probably have to test to be sure. New song, possible new rules
Horn main aswell, buddies play glaive and they are in the air almost the whole fight.. so funny to see. With attack and defence up plus max stamina and stamina drain reduced they murder everything from the sky while I smash them in the face on the ground while rocking out to tunes.
Although i'm too late to comment this... But Hunting Horn Does had Natural Stamina drain to monster too... so you could make some monster fainted faster than any other weapon.. so.. you have Natural KO damage + Stamina drain (similiar with Exhaust Phial in Switchaxe).. i've realized it since MHP3d (while i dont Play MHW or Iceborne)
So happy to see a fellow hunting horn player. Definitely my favorite I’m a hunting horn healer main an it is so much especially when fighting tempered monsters like gold rathian an silver rathalos those two hit like a truck poison ☠️ an fire damage also the dragon 🐉 breath they’re pools of fire after they fire there fireballs are savage. Also gold rath with her boosted up seething bazel like explosive 🧨 fireball with huge explosion 💥 an damage.
I always feel bad about HH because I like the concept as I love playing support. However, every time I play with the weapon I just end up fighting the weapon itself more than the monster. I just don't know how to play nice with the weapon past running to the corner and not fighting which I know is bad.
Just keep practicing!! Don't give up on it. Be patient with any of the weapon classes and I can promise you'll see growth the more you play with them. You got this! 😁
@@HandiTips I have tried and failed for multiple generations. I just have the same end results. I have concocted one last plan to learn it though. I ended up maining bowguns due to the diversity and prep in those two weapons. Hunting horn seems to have the same deal but difference is lots of experience on bowguns. Maybe going through a fresh account hunting horn only might fix the problem.
As a new player i have a question. I been using hunting horn ever since i started and while i am not far in the game yet it is my fav weapon. I do not understand however what exactly Sonicwaves do. I tried that song a couple of times , but i just didnt get what is the effect and googling didnt help. Maybe i should google harder
Welcome to the doot crew, friend! Sonic Waves is a bit niche. You know sonic bombs? Same effect. Getting monsters burrowed underground to come up. You won't be using it too much honestly. 😅
Sword and shield + the wide-range skill (SnS is the only class that can use items without sheathing), and certain bowguns (recovery ammo) will heal your team faster and more reliably, but not while concurrently damaging the monster. Hunting horn probably has some potential for healing, but not in emergencies -- the recovery is pretty small and the songs take precious time to load up and cast. I feel that hunting horns are better at passively maintaining health and preventing/enhancing damage than rescuing teammates. You should also know there are team healing items which are moderately potent and can be used quickly regardless of your build. Hunting horns that focus on raw damage should usually come with the Attack up L song (which slightly limits healing options), but elemental hunting horns do fine with anything else. The potential for recovering your own health is amazing, on the other hand.
Monster hunter world took away the only drawback of the weapon where you need to memorize you note combinations, but in generations ultimate or all the way back to Monster Hunter 2 (Dos (MHD)), you have to memorize, but it seems so much more powerful the farther back in history you go even though it technically gets better every game. But it has some really vibrant designs like a piano, a coffin, a flower, and of course a head on a stick. At least try all 14 weapons and see what you like before “maining” a weapon type for the next 2,000 or so hours.
@@HandiTips wait. I usually fight Vaal with teostra's orphe. I'm pretty sure my teammates still get stunned sometimes. I always incorporate a stun immunity in my HH builds so I personally don't suffer from that. I might be wrong, but is this new in iceborne ? I'm playing on pc. I'm going to test this.
@@theblackbaron4119 hmmm I'm not sure of the teammates part, mainly because I'm pretty much a solo player, but I can definitely confirm that ailments negated does for sure keep yourself from getting stunned. If anyone on console can confirm for teammates please speak up!
With Iceborne we get speed boost + evade window up - does anyone know how good the evade window is? I use evade window in literally all of my sets just because dodging out of everything is fun af
Ha! I should've just put that tag line at the beginning of the video and called it a day. "Knock out monsters and play some nice tunes." Glad to have you on board! Enjoy!
I call it sweet chin music. Answered a teo sos last night from another HH. He sat on the sidelines playing songs and healing with friendship while I did the same in teos face using velkhana HH. Teo HH is a must for vaal too, it eliminates miasma also.
teostra with the gama horn is an absolute joke, just as vaal with teo horn or kushala with all windpresure negated. atk + def up xl horns or the teo horn for general quality of life is my absolute go to.
Why one of my mains is hunting horn? You know how you get to a point in Monster Hunter where getting materials from monsters feels like a grind? One solution to that is too answer SOSs. Sure, I can take my longsword collection. But hunting horn is MADE for that kinda thing. So, when I am done slaying a monster by myself, I often go and get my HH out to hunt them again and again with others. Also on horn maestro, I don't think it's that important. You should be keeping up on the uptime for the songs anyways because they allow you to do big deeps
All ailments negated does apply to stun. Also, impact waves has huge KO and stun potential. If you play 3 impact wave songs at once and encore it, it can do 1100 damage on a wakeup attack
Hunting Horn community is so badass!! Thanks for sharing that tip with us!
I never thought to wake with a triple beat I've still been waking up with the second hit of super slam 😂
the ultimate alarm clock.
Oh good to know, iceborne just come to pc and i have no idea about max damge of 1100 raw build or elemental build and how the max damage encore for 3 dragon wave build

Just got iceborne expansion didn't know what to pick as main weapon but chose HH I feel like a beast with that giant flute in my hands! I like the video with the different HH's gonna try mixing builds up now when I get higher MR.
Glad to have you on board!! You'll really be thankful for the amount of effect you can have on the hunts once you get deeper into MR. Enjoy!!
the yian garuga horn is pretty underrated. It can reach 100% flat affinity without Any extra skills other than crit eye 7 and atk boost 4.
You got that right! I gushed over it in my review, don't worry! 😂
It's honestly refreshing to see someone not making a corner dooter video. Thanks mate
Great video!! People should use more this weapon!!
fun fact post safi jiiva, all the safi horns have a level 4 deco slot and conveniently they made a sonorous jewel plus that gives you all 2 levels of the horn maestro skill. very convenient for jumping into hunting horn. at least thats what i did.
I love the hunting horn!!! The echo wave does some MASSIVE KO damage when tripled and encored. Right now I’m just starting off in iceborne, can’t get past barrioth...but I have full KO boost jewels and I’m constantly triggering that on the monsters.
Yessssss this video I will use to convince my teammates to build this weapon
Haha best of luck to you!! Hope they give it a chance 🤞🏽
Went from hammer in world to hunting horn in MHGU and I'm liking it I'll probably try it out on world. I've never used it before
If you liked it before world, you're gonna love it in world!!
was thinking about what my next weapon should be. def down to try this. now gotta look for some build videos
I literally started playing HH for the first time 2 days ago after playing MH for like 3 years.
Created a new character dedicated to HH and LBG (basically a support build), buffed up, did the L2 spin2win up until Anjanath and I gotta say - I deal smaller numbers than a hammer but end up with better DPS just because monster can't move for crap.
If I knew I'd have better CC than any other weapon I'd fall in love with HH a long time ago.
I basically feel like that oblivious dude in romcoms that chased multiple uninterested or unworthy women ignoring that girl in glasses he works with.
Everybody gangsta till the hunting horn main plays BFG division
I am absolutely loving the sonorous eisfyl! I use it for every single monster in the guiding lands except silver rathalos he’s my hh kryptonite
Hey! That's why you broaden your horizons! I play as many weapon classes I can because some monsters are just tough match ups for certain weapons. Sonorous really is one of my favorites too though!! 😁😁
Hunting horn is my third most used weapon. But it's so boring, I use it as a service to the hunters of the world. No one wants to play support so I bite the bullet. But I'm happy ppl like you exist who enjoy it, We need more of you
Just started dooting few days back. You know what, I just got an A for one of the arena quest which I couldnt with other weapon classes (okay, other options are not my main weapons but I definitely play them much more than HH). It is extremely satisfying, because of how powerful, yet supportive it is, potential KOs etc etc. Now my problem is struggling to get and awaken all safi HH.
I just got into hammer. Turns out I like blunt better. I played hh before and really liked it. Got tired of doing buffs, but I came back to it and love it. My favorite weapon. So cool how you can heal yourself, raise your attack, defense, your health recovery, etc. I feel like a mage with it! So many things it can do there other weapons just can't.
Don't forget the stun potential this weapon has! You will be creating windows for MASSIVE damage more often than you think!
Oh I could never forget the stun! Especially after klutching onto the monsters head. Love getting the stun on that move! 😁
Thanks for the video. I used PC so the IB haven't come out yet but HH makes things becomes too easy sometimes that I do pick up other things here and there for fun. But when it gets serious? HH for the win!!!
Ive only played with one HH player so far for the safi seige, but we totally domimated that mission with all the buffs
I know this video is very old. But I just wanted to add that if you don't have horn maestro decos, you can make some by pouring some spare decos or ones that you don't use in the item melder.
because is awesome
Dammit I spent all that time on this video when I could've just put that! 😂 Thank you for the sub my man!
datura horn with val set bonus=never die set :) I use it for luna group fights with rocksteady mantle to play some health regen in lunas nova.
Every horn has their purpose! It's just such a flexible weapon class to play!!
@@HandiTips except forthe nargacuga HH that shit should burn in hell xD
mr kulu yaku hh is pretty underrated, I'm currently using 3 teostra armor pieces for master's touch while on max critical eye(40% affinity), add up lvl 4 attack boost (5% aff.) and max Weakness.ploit (30%-50% aff.), what makes it better is the horn itself, it has 25% aff. then add all those up makes it 100% aff. + Master's Touch = Infinite white Sharpness
...then you can also sneak in the health booster charm lul
VERY easy to augment in comparison to higher rarity horns too! Love the build. CRITS FOR DAYS 🔥🔥🔥
I'm in the 1% people that play HH too (As the ancient wyverian said) and F*** yea i LOVE IT !
I’m already in endgame and I’m thinking of giving hunting horn a go, which one should I go for first?
For straight damage? Acidic Glavenus "The Rasping Ballad"
One of my favorites to use that does great damage and looks beautiful, Velkhana "Sonorous Eisfyl"
Shara Ishvalda's horn "Austere Paradise is great too if you wake up the dragon element
Hope it helps! Enjoy and welcome to the fam!! 😁
if you want quality of life, though, you should go with the teo or nightshade paolumo horn. you won't get knocked out, you won't go to sleep, no poison, bleed or whatever. and there is a HH to counter almost every elder dragon. sometimes, i think it is OP as hell.
Im a horn user and tgis is completely accurate love the weapon and how helpful it is
There's few of us but we definitely steal the spotlight!
Never could play icebrone and world but now rise in horRISEzen and can finally play the new hunting horn.
I want to main this so bad as a hammer main now the difficulty really pays out
Give it a shot! In all honesty I really think you should give any weapon you have even the slightest interest a try. You never know what could come of it!
i switched from hammer to HH, too. i only miss the spin to win, but other than that, the HH is worth the effort to learn it. i would love to run into some more dooters.
I wanna start using the Hunting Horn but the sheer amount of songs there r and learning what each one does, and learning to play them on the fly. It honestly scares me and kinda discourages me from learning it
Thank you Horn boi
Nice video pal :) I’m going to give HH a try. I rarely see them in-game.
Heckie yeah, I'm convinced! :3
A boomstick? That's cute...
This... is my DOOTSTICK!!!
Hunting horn truly has benefits when you know how to use it, but it is REALLY hard to learn.
I would play HH but I don't have any friends :(
I play solo all the time! Don't let it stop you from trying out HH. You might end up really enjoying it!! And you still feel super powerful.
Solo HH main here. Not a pro but still I’m getting by in the cold lands haha so don’t be afraid to pick up that horn and play the song of our people.. doot.... doot..
@@notriyah that's the kind of energy we need, Rita!! 🤙🏽🤙🏽
Better, friends slow you down.
i only play solo horn. its way easier to headsnipe when the monster isnt chasing 4 people around. not to mention ko threshholds are much higher in multiplayer
My god thank you! I was looking for some kind of video showing the new songs.
Does "horn maestro" also affect the duration of the new bubbles?
Would love to see two builds:
1. The super recovery:
Vaal set bonus + recovery speed up + recovery up + immunizer + the songs: "recovery speed" & "extended health recovery" + the food skill "felyne medic" and maybe a health augment (loved my build before iceborne with the bazel-horn - would love to see how "extended health recovery works into it aswell. I´m a pc player and have to wait until iceborne drops for pc..)
2. the dodge set:
Evade window + evade extender + the song "speed boost + evade window up" and maybe the evasion mantle aswell.
Would be so nice if i could do some testing especially with the health regain build
Hey Andreas! To answer your question, yes it does! (You'll love your builds even more I promise!) I'll do my best to incorporate your builds into a vid! Evasion Mantle might be overkill on the second. You'll notice a huge difference with the speed boost + evade window alone! Happy to help a fellow HH user. Can't wait till Iceborne comes your way!
Yes, the bubbles are extended by Maestro.
Extended Recovery is essentially the Vaal bonus but for free and with slightly better healing potential, so you most likely won't get any use out of it and the Vaal set together. I still have to test how skills affect the song and whether it interacts with Recovery Speed.
From testing, the Speed+Evade song gives around Evade Window 2. May or may not stack with the skill itself.
@@KPlaysHere Evasion window should stack! Hard one to test obviously but I'd be willing to bet it does. 😅
@@HandiTips it's hard to say since other songs that give skills don't stack with the skill (Earplugs, Wind Res, etc). I'd probably guess it works the same way just based on patterns, but we'd probably have to test to be sure. New song, possible new rules
Horn main aswell, buddies play glaive and they are in the air almost the whole fight.. so funny to see. With attack and defence up plus max stamina and stamina drain reduced they murder everything from the sky while I smash them in the face on the ground while rocking out to tunes.
Would any of you be so kind as to list your top 5 HH's for me? Reasons for each one, would also be very much appreciated!
I tested one of the new hunting horns on PC against Banbaro. Managed to knock it down two times in less than ten seconds. Doot for life.
Electric guitar hunting horn?
Although i'm too late to comment this... But Hunting Horn Does had Natural Stamina drain to monster too... so you could make some monster fainted faster than any other weapon.. so.. you have Natural KO damage + Stamina drain (similiar with Exhaust Phial in Switchaxe)..
i've realized it since MHP3d (while i dont Play MHW or Iceborne)
Can you please leave a list of the monster to farm to build each individual horn and their songs.
So happy to see a fellow hunting horn player. Definitely my favorite I’m a hunting horn healer main an it is so much especially when fighting tempered monsters like gold rathian an silver rathalos those two hit like a truck poison ☠️ an fire damage also the dragon 🐉 breath they’re pools of fire after they fire there fireballs are savage. Also gold rath with her boosted up seething bazel like explosive 🧨 fireball with huge explosion 💥 an damage.
HH makes em look like baby Raths!! 😂
I love the Hunting Horn
Haha you and me both!
I have been a hammer main for many moons... however, it seems the time is nigh that I pick up the musical basher and add some toot toot to my bonk.
Stick with any horn that has attack up, without it it easily adds 1-3 minutes to every hunt
@@scatmanhi7837 thank you for the advice, brother. :)
@@Mr.Snickenpoof no problem, us bonk boys have to stick together
@@scatmanhi7837 may are paths cross in the guiding lands soon
Are you eventually going to release a build video?
Absolutely! A support build will be dropping today with more to come. What kind of build are you hoping to see?
Gonna be a slight delay on that support build! Tomorrow afternoon 👌🏾
I always feel bad about HH because I like the concept as I love playing support. However, every time I play with the weapon I just end up fighting the weapon itself more than the monster. I just don't know how to play nice with the weapon past running to the corner and not fighting which I know is bad.
Just keep practicing!! Don't give up on it. Be patient with any of the weapon classes and I can promise you'll see growth the more you play with them. You got this! 😁
@@HandiTips I have tried and failed for multiple generations. I just have the same end results.
I have concocted one last plan to learn it though. I ended up maining bowguns due to the diversity and prep in those two weapons. Hunting horn seems to have the same deal but difference is lots of experience on bowguns. Maybe going through a fresh account hunting horn only might fix the problem.
As a new player i have a question. I been using hunting horn ever since i started and while i am not far in the game yet it is my fav weapon. I do not understand however what exactly Sonicwaves do. I tried that song a couple of times , but i just didnt get what is the effect and googling didnt help. Maybe i should google harder
Welcome to the doot crew, friend! Sonic Waves is a bit niche. You know sonic bombs? Same effect. Getting monsters burrowed underground to come up. You won't be using it too much honestly. 😅
Hi I'm planing on getting mhw and like playing a healer like class would this be the for me?
Sword and shield + the wide-range skill (SnS is the only class that can use items without sheathing), and certain bowguns (recovery ammo) will heal your team faster and more reliably, but not while concurrently damaging the monster. Hunting horn probably has some potential for healing, but not in emergencies -- the recovery is pretty small and the songs take precious time to load up and cast. I feel that hunting horns are better at passively maintaining health and preventing/enhancing damage than rescuing teammates. You should also know there are team healing items which are moderately potent and can be used quickly regardless of your build. Hunting horns that focus on raw damage should usually come with the Attack up L song (which slightly limits healing options), but elemental hunting horns do fine with anything else. The potential for recovering your own health is amazing, on the other hand.
@@molluskscommawethe thx I like the look of sns reminds me of link thx
Monster hunter world took away the only drawback of the weapon where you need to memorize you note combinations, but in generations ultimate or all the way back to Monster Hunter 2 (Dos (MHD)), you have to memorize, but it seems so much more powerful the farther back in history you go even though it technically gets better every game. But it has some really vibrant designs like a piano, a coffin, a flower, and of course a head on a stick. At least try all 14 weapons and see what you like before “maining” a weapon type for the next 2,000 or so hours.
The floor is lava sounds like a new girl reference “true American” lol
Excellent video keep up the excellent new subscriber here
Glad to have you on board, friend!! Thank you!
Its a new day, yes it is
Purmp! pum pumpumpum!
I plan on spending the next couple of months mastering hunting horn. Could you give me a list of the horns in this video?
All ailments negated also works on efluvium~ a hard counter to Val Hazak
All ailments negated prevents effluvium buildup aswell. But doesn't negate stun.
It actually does negate stun! Stun is considered and ailment in MHW. Test it out! I was surprised too lol.
@@HandiTips wait. I usually fight Vaal with teostra's orphe. I'm pretty sure my teammates still get stunned sometimes. I always incorporate a stun immunity in my HH builds so I personally don't suffer from that. I might be wrong, but is this new in iceborne ? I'm playing on pc. I'm going to test this.
@@theblackbaron4119 hmmm I'm not sure of the teammates part, mainly because I'm pretty much a solo player, but I can definitely confirm that ailments negated does for sure keep yourself from getting stunned. If anyone on console can confirm for teammates please speak up!
I think most people just arent interested in the play style or looks of the weapon its easily a top tier weapon and capcom just keeps making it better
I just got the level 4 horn meistro deco. Im about to try the weapon out now.
With Iceborne we get speed boost + evade window up - does anyone know how good the evade window is?
I use evade window in literally all of my sets just because dodging out of everything is fun af
i tried it in iceborn and now i love it XD
Impact wave goes brrrrrrrr
I'm sold, been using the hammer in iceborne but now I'm bored. I wanna knock a monster out and also play some nice tunes.
Ha! I should've just put that tag line at the beginning of the video and called it a day. "Knock out monsters and play some nice tunes." Glad to have you on board! Enjoy!
I call it sweet chin music. Answered a teo sos last night from another HH. He sat on the sidelines playing songs and healing with friendship while I did the same in teos face using velkhana HH. Teo HH is a must for vaal too, it eliminates miasma also.
@@Citan005 flexing those HH muscles on Teo!! 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
What's the intro song?
wha's the track in intro???
I think i dont like hh just because i dont feel impact of the attacks. I love hammer for weight every attack have and hh just dont have it
Is there a horn with a song that can forgive you of the sin of hurting the best boy?
teostra with the gama horn is an absolute joke, just as vaal with teo horn or kushala with all windpresure negated. atk + def up xl horns or the teo horn for general quality of life is my absolute go to.
Why one of my mains is hunting horn?
You know how you get to a point in Monster Hunter where getting materials from monsters feels like a grind? One solution to that is too answer SOSs.
Sure, I can take my longsword collection.
But hunting horn is MADE for that kinda thing.
So, when I am done slaying a monster by myself, I often go and get my HH out to hunt them again and again with others.
Also on horn maestro, I don't think it's that important. You should be keeping up on the uptime for the songs anyways because they allow you to do big deeps
