hunting horn question

(Sorry for my english)

In this game you can get 2 weapons in the hunts and change it in the seikret, i play a lot monster hunter world and i dont really found an utility for this in end game with jewels builds focused on one weapon, but i got a question for those who play the beta and try it.

Can you get for example a long sword and for second weapon a hunting horn, start the hunt, buff yourself and team with the hunting horn and then swap to the long sword and keep that buffs?

Thankfully the buffs don't last very long if you do that. Ideally they would have the buffs drop off immediately after switching.

i dont know what video i watched but they said if you buff you and your team with hunting horn and then switch the weapon you have a shorter duration or something like that. but yes you will keep it.

it also worked with heavy bowgun in speedruns you could see it. they buffed with a attack up ammo and then go into the hunt

That would probably need testing, and I don't think it would be plausible given you can just use Items and charms to negate or emulate horn effects, so I'd file it under "doable, but not worth the effort".

A) as others have said, the buff is reduced if you swap off the horn that applied the buff.

B) skills work differently in Wilds with there being weapon and armor skills making the swap mechanic not as bad as it could be.

C) supposedly (no source provided), Capcom's design intent for the weapon swap was to be for two of the same weapon type (like two Greatswords) with different elements/statuses with the bonus of being able to bring two different weapon types (like Greatsword and Bow).

Personally, I see no use for the "bring two different weapons" as I decide the weapon for my hunt before my hunt starts. I can see a use case for a status+raw/element of one weapon though, like starting with Paralysis/Sleep SnS, once the resistance is built up after a paralysis/sleep or two, swap to a Raw/Element to finish the hunt.

Edit: and your English isn't bad. No need to apologize for knowing a second language.
