How to use smokebombs?

[!?!]

I tried throwing it down as soon as beetlejuice came to ♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥ up so the 2 monsters would focus on each other instead of me but it doesn't seem to do anything.
They still run after me for 10 years.

Am I supposed to smoke the monsters face?
Those things are supposedly so good, they had to be limited to 3 as if they were flashpods but I don't see why.

it can be variable, you stand in it to hide briefly and attempt to make the monster lose track of you.

depending on what the monster is doing this can happen anywhere between instantly or until the end of its current action. it also depends if your the intended target, if hes targeting your cat or another player, it wont take effect until he come looking for you.

so its a bit of a gamble to get em working right but they can lead to some hillarious tactics. i use smoke on kirin all the time as his natural instinct is to hop to the smoke bomb and sniff looking for the player, as a greatsword... free face smack! i usually use the sporepuffs though, they are free and last longer.

Personally, I use smoke bomb to sharpen weapons. Run a little, drop one and start shaprening.

That's actually pretty clever! Intelligent thinking always helps the hunt.

yeah i figured that one out on my own when trying to solo tempered kirin on console i clipped a sporepuff, dodged a lightning bolt and then he jsut kinda, derped over to me and started sniffing. so naturally i abused the hell out of that area of the coral highlands. made the hunt hella easy.
