You forgot to mention one change: opening the menu and pressing R will show available songs, including which ones are active and which are running out.
Almost 2 years later I'm still hooked on Hunting Horn, and this is the video that started it. Now I main it in all MH games I play. I even went all the way back to MHFU (my first MH game) and started a HH only playthrough. Thank you for opening my eyes, Gaijin! Ps: I recently took the time to learn how to create the purrfect Prowler using your videos as well. I can't thank you enough for everything you do for this community.
@@sushirofl516 if you haven't played it before, I'd say guild style to learn the weapon's general moveset first. With that it should be easier to pick it up in other MH games as well. After that just try different styles and see what you like. I personally like valor stlye because you have access to all moves through valor stance plus you have a defensive option with the auto dodge. (You can use absolute evasion/readiness for that as well but they are not always available)
@@lightbrand_ yeah it's painful if you're used to the new versions ^^' and without horn maestro it feels like the songs only last for 10 seconds. I just tried to keep self improvement active at all times and use other songs only before entering the area the monster was in.
@@TheKampfmaschine yeah I guess that’s what you’re supposed to do, but I think it makes it lose its charm as playing music and hitting the monster at the same time is what makes HH cool to me
I have found something that has changed me as a Hunting Horn Main forever. To see your melodies activation, press the + button, then the R button. This will pop up a “secret menu” that shows ALL your melodies on that horn. To tell the difference, grey is not active, white is normal, and yellow is encored. I’ve been trying to find a menu like this forever and now I feel more confident to play Horn with or without other people. Please check out Horn if you ever feel like playing it, but don’t like the lack of sheet music… but I sorta feel like an idiot for not seeing this a few years back… also this might be a thing in all monster hunter games from 2 and beyond.
It seems some of the "new" hh moves in mh rise are coming from adept and valor style from mhgu so it's time to go back to these awesome guides as I want to use the hh in rise :-)
After seeing that MH Rise was coming to all platforms, I decided to head back to MHGU for a nostalgia trip... and veer off bow spamming lol. Love the guide quite a bit, and even though I absolutely suck with clunkiness of old MHGU HH (but love it in MHW:I and MH Rise), I still wanna doot away and get outta my comfort zone. It's also interesting to see some of these arts are incorporated into the base movesets of HHs in Rise, making the HH more of a joy to use in GU.
I think I'm the one guy who would play Striker HH just so I could use second gen moveset. A lot of people seem to hate it but I love it, and not having to go into Recital Mode is an added bonus.
Late, but holding R and mashing Y during an evade in Alchemy Style allows you to instantly pull out the Alchemy Barrel, skipping the sheathing animation (guns have to fire a shot 1st tho), just in case you haven't already covered this somewhere.
I finally got my hands on a switch and this game. I was wondering if the motion values for valor recital and encore were known. As a side note, I’ve loved your videos for years and appreciated all the heart that goes into them
Oh my god the Valor Recitals. I was actually attracted to Adept and Valor Hammer because of the stylish spinning slams, and I think this is grabbing me in the same way...
I use it almost exclusively in World, but never really tried it in the other games. Super keen to go back to Ultimate with the knowledge I have now :D!
been rewatching these guides because they are great content and im starting to get back into GU, ive got to say the screaming of that stone horn is ungodly
A friend of mine who mains support/healer in basically every other game got into MH with World. I told him I was a bit surprised to see him not playing Horn since it's everything he usually likes in a playstyle and he responded "I considered it but I want to actually do damage" Oh, that sweet summer child...
Keep em coming Gaijin Hunter! I am really hyped about playing this game on the Switch because it is going to be the first Monster Hunter game (other than World) that I would have played since Freedom Unite!
I love this moveset for the hh. I really dislike how they changed it in rise but i love how it is in world, so i'll probably go play GU instead of rise after seeing this
Haven't seen a comment for it yet, but Adept style has a really nice combo if you time it well. Evade, then do the 3 hit swing, then quickly press R for recital attack. Works like a charm especially if you can land all the hits on the head.
Oh my Lord I've never been so excited for my toot too hammer! I found the Arts for Horn so underwhelming in generations, and most styles removed the best stuff (like the backswing and double swing) but this art looks SO GOOD and the Valor perform seems amaziiiiiiiiing!!
i'm having a really hard time climbing out of low rank in MHGU i just can't decide what weapon to main, i keep switching from GS to CB to SNS to IG but i think after seeing this i'll main HH. it worked for me in World so i think it will work here. Look out G-rank here i come again! and the are no Apex's to slow me down this time!
Am I doing something wrong? My hh does over 300 units of raw damage, but I can't quite seem to kill any of the g rank monsters with it without timing out, can't even get them to limp, is the hunting horn really weak solo or something?
HH has always interested me, but I just couldn't get the feel for it. I made some really good HH in MHGen but never used them effectively enough. So I'm really excited to try HH again in MHGenU, especially with Valor and the new hunter art. Break Dancing Dodges FTW!
Dunno about 3rd and 4th gen, but Striker HH has the same moveset as the one in MHFU. I personally play it because it's the HH I'm accustomed to so it is kinda sad that the hunting arts are kinda lackluster
Really enjoyed HH so far ... But let me guess there is no way to see all possible song combinations on screen like you could on the 2nd screen of the 3ds right ?
Also, and I dont know if it was a change for Ultimate, you dont have to play Self Improvement as the first song: if you play a double notes song, it will play self improvement without having to set it up the first time
So I recently restarted mhgu so I could play as a female because I like the look of some of their armor better. So I figured playing as a hunting horn would give me a free attack up and bounce resistance early on one the game
i was really feeling adept ls, adept bow and valor db but now adept and valor hh looks so cool, i mained hh in monster hunter online... it calls for me SO MANY FUN WEAPONS HELP.
You forgot to mention one change: opening the menu and pressing R will show available songs, including which ones are active and which are running out.
Wow thank you
That is actually an incredible thing thank you for telling us
Yea it's so so useful. That way I know when to refresh the melodies and I can get a quick reminder for the songs
Wow thanks a lot!
Oh that's big thanks
"Once you are in Valor mode, the fun begins..." is a staple of this series at this point
valor hh sucks...
@@jake9854 literally how
The only style that truely sucks for HH is striker
@@DoodlesD yeah i used it i miss my comboes and leading it with a song.
That phrase sums up all of genU for me lol
Hunting styles are cool but I kind of miss MHGU sometimes. I really wish they’d port it to the Switch

Thank you!!
Thanks g 🙏
:-) thank bro
Valor mode seems an hilarious joint, seeing how every weapon begins to have fun as soon as they enter it
It seems some of the "new" hh moves in mh rise are coming from adept and valor style from mhgu so it's time to go back to these awesome guides as I want to use the hh in rise :-)
Hunting Horn mains represent!
Squaaaaaaa!
DOOT DOOT
here here
Not a main myself, but the weapon is my third favorite to use!
There are literally dozens of us!
I'm a Hunting Horn speedrunner and content creator, thanks for the video. Cheers
Your video "The HH support conundrum" is amazing :)
Aka how to use the worlds loudest hammer.
You mean all hammers are the world's quietest hunting horns.
This video inspired me to pick up hh as my secondary. Unfortunately I can't divorce my gunlance. Thanks Adam!
Same but with charge axe -^-
HH is hard a f to use

Been playing Horn exclusivley since Monster Hunter 3. So cool to see it being used more and more now.
You can smack dragons with a musical instrument, a bug stick or even with boomerangs as a cat - only in Monster Hunter
I finally got my hands on a switch and this game. I was wondering if the motion values for valor recital and encore were known.
As a side note, I’ve loved your videos for years and appreciated all the heart that goes into them
Yoooo this guide is exactly what I needed! After playing Rise for 600 hours I wanted to try the old games. Thank you 🥳👏👏👏🎉
Thank you for this. I realized I had to up my HH game in Generations so this helps.
Oh my god the Valor Recitals. I was actually attracted to Adept and Valor Hammer because of the stylish spinning slams, and I think this is grabbing me in the same way...
Finally, the best weapon no one uses.
I use it almost exclusively in World, but never really tried it in the other games. Super keen to go back to Ultimate with the knowledge I have now :D!
i think its overrated.
If it was the best weapon everyone would be using it, especially for speedruns
Now now Carl, it's just a saying on this channel. No need to be pedantic, we're all hunters here :)
Right, I was refering to every time Gaijin Hunter says it.
been rewatching these guides because they are great content and im starting to get back into GU, ive got to say the screaming of that stone horn is ungodly
I’m not a main in HH but I’ve recently started using it and oh my goodness it’s great, alchemy HH is my second favorite weapon now
Sound the horns,the buffs have arrived!
A friend of mine who mains support/healer in basically every other game got into MH with World. I told him I was a bit surprised to see him not playing Horn since it's everything he usually likes in a playstyle and he responded "I considered it but I want to actually do damage"
Oh, that sweet summer child...
Watched the video when you uploaded it and tried Valor style Hunting Horn in the demo for the last few days..and BOI IT IS AWESOME!!!
Hunting Horn + Alchemy Style Mains sound like literal gods to me. Now I seriously wanna give it a shot myself.
Thanks for making this guide! Buying a switch for rise and wanted to try out GenU while I’m waiting:)
Honestly I think I’d be down with Alchemy HH, that sounds neat.
That adept change got me shook holy crap
Doot doot, my bretheren.
Ah yes, enslaved noise
I set an alarm for this
Keep em coming Gaijin Hunter! I am really hyped about playing this game on the Switch because it is going to be the first Monster Hunter game (other than World) that I would have played since Freedom Unite!
I will play this when I stop blowing into an electric guitar
The Zinogre horn is so stylish.
That PLUS being able to transmog the deviant zinogre set with that hair oh my GOD
You could blow into a shamisen, or a set of bongo drums instead, if the guitar isn't doing it for you.
finally!!! the guide for the best weapon!!!
I love hunting horn so much. Can't wait to play this game someday!
let me play you the song of my people 'blows out speakers with static-y screams of the dammed'
Oh my God.. Those valor melodies and new art motions look incredible. That's some of the cleanest most fluid animations I've ever seen in MH.
the ultimate bardbarian weapon.
Great video. Looking forward to trying HH tonight on the demo.
wow most indepth guide for HH! thanks!❤
Where my stun boys at 👀? :)
Stun boys are fun boys
Kaileb Fun boys are horn boys
I love this moveset for the hh. I really dislike how they changed it in rise but i love how it is in world, so i'll probably go play GU instead of rise after seeing this
Watch all of these GU tutorials, and take a shot every time he says "the fun begins"
That's because Valor Mode is Party Mode!
Valor mode MVP!
Here because of Rise's HH.
I love using the hunting horn against the Raths. They spent almost the whole hunt flailing around on the ground like idiots lol
Haven't seen a comment for it yet, but Adept style has a really nice combo if you time it well.
Evade, then do the 3 hit swing, then quickly press R for recital attack. Works like a charm especially if you can land all the hits on the head.
Mmm I really love that adept change. I always felt akward when I evaded but I had a song queued up so I didn't want to attack
Underrated weapon ughhh i started using HH and fell in loveeeee with it
Like how striker style for most weapons is just the mhfu movesets
Hunting Horn for life! I used it in MH4U and MHW but not in MHGen, once MHGU comes out I''m definitely using it.
I am maining guild HH right now and I love it in mhgu
finally my beloved main weapon :) thank you Gaijin
Hunting horn needs more love, absolutely gonna try Valor out with the good ole Metal bagpipe line~
Just got invite back to MHGU . WOOHOOO GOTTA RELEARN AGAIN .
Your hunting horn tutorial help me a lot.
“A specific group” you mean one of us 4
I'm so excited to hunt again with so many different Horns :D
Oh my Lord I've never been so excited for my toot too hammer! I found the Arts for Horn so underwhelming in generations, and most styles removed the best stuff (like the backswing and double swing) but this art looks SO GOOD and the Valor perform seems amaziiiiiiiiing!!
"support"
proceeds to bash the unaware monster in the face.
12:07 So are these values known by now? How exactly did it work in Gen?
The complication of HH makes me cry cuz I'm not good enough to play it xD
The War Bard has come a drummin
Man I forgot they constantly were messing with the hunting horn to keep it up with the other weapons
I'm back here after Rise... Wait, so Rise's HH recital was actually that Valor mode recital all along :0
😝WOOOHOOO! GO HH MAINS!! #DOOT 🎷🎶👑🎶🎷
Doot
Striker style is freedom unite hunting horn.
So the striker style just puts you back into how you played in Mhfu, right?
@@valky_uniguri And you had to learn the songs off by heart or write them down somewhere because it didn't show the songs in the equipment details.
Same thoughts on the Phoenix breath man, that was a wacky animation hahaha
i'm having a really hard time climbing out of low rank in MHGU i just can't decide what weapon to main, i keep switching from GS to CB to SNS to IG but i think after seeing this i'll main HH. it worked for me in World so i think it will work here. Look out G-rank here i come again! and the are no Apex's to slow me down this time!
Damn. I wish those dope as Recitals /Encore were in World.
Am I doing something wrong? My hh does over 300 units of raw damage, but I can't quite seem to kill any of the g rank monsters with it without timing out, can't even get them to limp, is the hunting horn really weak solo or something?
Holy hell, the Valor looks sooooooo brutal!
I love useing the horn and i mostly do Arial style when i play
6:10 which looks like stringed together eight notes >u < *creeps back into the shadows of the comments*
HH has always interested me, but I just couldn't get the feel for it. I made some really good HH in MHGen but never used them effectively enough. So I'm really excited to try HH again in MHGenU, especially with Valor and the new hunter art.

Dunno about 3rd and 4th gen, but Striker HH has the same moveset as the one in MHFU. I personally play it because it's the HH I'm accustomed to so it is kinda sad that the hunting arts are kinda lackluster
Can’t wait to use brave thunderlord horn
I've been thinking a lot about making a full support HH set using alchemy style, afflictions, stuns and stuff like that
Really enjoyed HH so far ... But let me guess there is no way to see all possible song combinations on screen like you could on the 2nd screen of the 3ds right ?
if you press plus and then R the plus menu is replaced by your songs so you can look them up quickly and see if they're active
You picked a really annoying horn for this video lol. Thanks for the info
"my favourite hunter art the special vibe"
So what youre saying is.
You can vibe check the monsters.
great tutorial
Can't believe the hilt stab was stuck to be an A/O press and not any note
Hunting Horn is Support Hammer but awesome
Also, and I dont know if it was a change for Ultimate, you dont have to play Self Improvement as the first song: if you play a double notes song, it will play self improvement without having to set it up the first time
Jeesus that horn sounds evil
I love this weapon although it isn’t my main but gosh it’s super complicated for me
Great video!
Killer B would be a hunting horn main.
World had it right with orange and corn with the whole I can now store three songs thing
What armor set are you using during the Valor style examples? It's really cute.
So I recently restarted mhgu so I could play as a female because I like the look of some of their armor better. So I figured playing as a hunting horn would give me a free attack up and bounce resistance early on one the game
Thanks for the guide
i was really feeling adept ls, adept bow and valor db but now adept and valor hh looks so cool, i mained hh in monster hunter online... it calls for me SO MANY FUN WEAPONS HELP.
Hope he does gunlance next
ELLLLLL KABONG!
im starting whit the HH and the striker style feels way too... slow? im not sure if thats the word but i just dont felt confortable with it
It's like to this day, I don't understand what Im looking at.
