Hunting Horn tips

[Paradoxical]

I recently acquired MHW on PC, and I decided to go back to my old main weapon, Hunting Horn. I started using Hunting Horn after I'd already beaten the main story on my PS4, so I'm not sure what early-mid game Hunting Horns I should use until i can get something like Deep Vero or something from the Nergigante or Xeno tree. I do not have access to any elder dragons yet (except a low rank Kirin). Im currently using the Glacial Bagpipe II

i did this for story as well, i found the vesipoid and the pukie horns pretty useful. as well as the default iron horn. all simple to make and maintain, potent at their jobs in terms of going through story. and the nergi horn at the end of the iron tree is fairly useful.

but yeah you know the end game horns deep vero and such :p

I just used the bagpipes until I could get Nergi's horn. Gama horn isn't bad, but not worth the effort to go out of your way and make IMO.

i beat the story with heavy bone horn II

than go for the lunastra horns, the sleep horn from kulve, and maybe the deep vero.

I personally use Bazel's line of horns. Attack up large with recovery will carry you. Pop an immunizer with the recovery large and you'll regenerate like Wolverine, but you don't sacrifice any damage for it

Go with the regular bone horn, it never stops being great and can even compete with deep vero because it is elementless, easy to get to 100% crit with and it has 3 augment slots.
It's the only one that has attack up L and minor earplugs too and you will like that for nergi because his divebomb announcement roar is a small one so you have tons of time to chain flash him out of the air.

Negating environmental damage is a bonus so you have 0 cares in the rotten vale, frolick in the acid puddles and never have to touch a cold drink again.

I used gama horn 1 while grinding nergi and jiiva for groove/overture, and then went for deep vero. Prior to that i just used the bone horn tree since that upgrades into gama. Once i got deep vero, i used that to grind out the rest of the elder dragon horns (orphee, manasheena, roar styx, etc) since those horns all have useful songs.

A good easy to build HH would be Fortissimo II. It has the same song list as Deep Veero, but if you have Free Element it has a rather potent Paralysis status. I like using it to help players in Low Rank with a full support build.
