Wich palico gadget do you bring?

[Lycon]

Is the hunting horn gadget worth it? Are the buffs the same as the player hunting horn? Wich ones do you bring? And why?

[Chompski]

Depends for what tho, if you are fighting tempered elder the buff is nice. Sometimes they gave you earplug buff if you havent already have it, wind, etc.
But mostly i brought the plarang since sometimes they can get you a gem/ruby

[Saber]

Plunderblade.
Nothing is better than getting materials for your gear faster.

[Nicovahkiin]

Plunderblade.

[Kyukyu]

I either go Plunderblade if I want materials, Meowlotov Cocktail if I want the run to be done faster or Coral Orchestra if I want to play it safe. I feel Coral Orchestra is the most useful gadget but you can definitely play without it once you get the hang of a monster.

The Coral Orchestra is quite useful, it gives several buffs: attack, defense (these two, attack and defense up, are quite large iirc, defense up gives like 30 defense or so?), stun immunity, blight resistance, paralysis immunity, increased max health, stamina use reduction, affinity up, divine protection, earplugs, tremor resistance, antidote, and I might be missing some more.

I personally use Meowlotov Cocktail, because combined with my gunlance shelling w/ blast damage on thrusts, and his blast weapon, they deal some nasty damage, especially if your palico decides to use the Rath o' Meow. He also places bombs when you place bombs on a monster that's asleep.

Plunderblade or Meowlotov, although I rarely solo anymore, I soloed right up to Kirin, got bored of it.

[Azure Fang]

Currently, shield to level. Once I get cocktail, same. Will main Cheerhorn once all others are maxed.

[Takao]

if you want to do ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ while killing the monster try meowlotov cocktail + palico rally

[Bike Knight]

I don't use any but Meowlotov. Plunderblade is alright but kept dropping slinger ammo with the palarang which confused me as to when the monster hit 30/20/10% HP. I only ever got a gem once in 60 runs or so using PB so it wasn't the loot fountain I was expecting anyway.

[Fredo]

Guess I'm the only one enjoying bug cage.

[Franz]

If I'm hunting for rare materials, Plunderblade. If I want the run to be brief Meowlotov. If I'm in a group and/or want to play safe, Coral Orchestra.

zapper kitty is best kitty.

shield is also nice for slow/setup or ranged users.

take the plunder blade if you just want more RNjesus loot.

buffs are debatable depending on which ones they give you, feels like roulette to me so i opt not to play.

but its agreed upon that health/molotov are just bad, not bad, but the others actually bring something useful to the table.

[MayMayNaenae]

I run meowlotov + Sleep weapon on the kitty, it always procs at least once, giving me a free 1200 damge wake up hit so it works pretty nice. He even puts down extra explosives while sleep bombing.

[Ordaeli]

Horn, mostly.
