Note; I mispoke about one thing; to get the Magnificent Trio to become available you do need to have 1 of each color not in the music staff, but you don't require it to be like that when you activate it. I guess I have only ever purposely went for a triple note combo so i never noticed! Sorry!
Additional info on the Infernal Melody as well: If the buff is in effect due to it already played by your teammates, you are not allowed to perform that mechanic, which meant you have to start queuing on when to play the infernal melody.
GaijinHunter what do u think about that the HH is now op? Because for me the weapon is now more fun and easier to play, but its feels like the buffs got nerfed. (in mhw u could do double buff if u play it again) - So MH RISE = ATK S (first song) = ATK S (second song) and in MHW = ATK S (first song) = ATK L (second song) i play HH since psp and mh since PS2. :3
@@kaninhunter50 hmm he had no bugs ready if mention a silkbind attack. .. if u mention a weponattak, this simple zr move then would it be possiblie ? would interessting me.
It was never really complicated. It had a small amount of attacks that created notes for buffing. The most complicated thing is remembering the songs on your horn.
@@muthafoca9409 yeah i remember when me and other horn users would take a moment before and in between fights to check our melodies lmao. especially since i try as many weapons as i can so i'd forget every other hunt.
@@mdrmdr944 ...My excuse is that I never got a chance to play it, and Hammerlord's might be too. The basic point still stands that this was a fiddly thing that only Gunners had anything close to an equivalent for until fairly recently.
When stringing into Crush, you can use it in any direction you input. This is part of what makes the ZR>A combo so safe. The Backslam is also easier to use because you can readjust your direction with a Crush incase you end up in an awkward position.
Crush and Double Swing both have this property, and it's no coincidence that these are the A and X+A moves that are used out of both Backwards Swing and Perform. Crush will read your directional input when you press A to determine which direction to face. Double Swing is a bit more complicated. The directional input when you press X+A determines which version of the attack you use: holding left will result in the attack hitting from right to left, whereas any other input or no input will result in the attack hitting from left to right. If you hold the same direction until the first swing, you will end up facing that direction at the end of the attack. If you initiated the attack holding one direction, but change direction or release the directional input before the first swing, you will end up facing forward at the end of the attack. If you initiated the attack not holding a direction and then hold a direction before the first swing, you will end up facing that direction at the end of the attack, but only if the direction is to the right of your hunter's original direction (you can turn up to 179 degrees to the right, though).
@@william_sun Yup, the Double Swing makes it a good follow up to correct your direction after a Backslam. You don't get the same safe precision of the Crush, but you do end up playing 2 green notes.
Brother, your tutorials are better than anybody else that is youtubing monster Hunter ever. I've been going to your tutorials probably all the way back to your first monster Hunter videos. Thanks for the great content man!
This weapon really is just about vibing. I went into the weapon blind and just hopped into a multiplayer hunt and pushed some buttons, and the game taught me the basics in about 5 minutes of vibing. This video was still great, it confirmed many suspicions I had and taught me some cool extra moves. Excellent as always! okay, back to vibing...
This video made me very emotional because of how nostalgic everything feels. I watched Gaijin's videos for 4U and Gen / GU so much, that this tutorial was like seeing a good friend after very long time. Thank you for this Gaijin.
Finally someone that makes a guide thats not an hour long and actually makes sense! Structured and spoken so well made it so easy to follow and understand! Thank you!
That intro brings me back to 4U when I was looking to get into a new weapon and I was told about Gaijin Hunters tutorials. His Charge Blade tutorial opened my world up to want to try new weapons more and more as each new release came. I started as a Gunlance main with Hunting Horn alt in Freedom Unite and it wasn't until I wanted a better solo Weapon to use in 4U that I decided to get into something other than Gunlance (which I was admittedly trash at due to not knowing what I was doing). Thank you Gaijin for being my Monster Hunter Guide.
I have just recently switched from a Weeb Blade player to a Hunting horn lover and I've got to say my quality of life have improved greatly thank you for this
listened to the third fleet podcast yesterday and heard him talk about how he wants to make tutorials easily understandable. He does not mess around, that's amazing stuff
Great tutorial, I really appreciate how you give advice for newcomers on how to begin and progress with learning the weapon, rather than just listing the combos and calling it a day.
Oh yeah, GH tutorials are back! I wish you had included switch skills in this one... but that means we'll have double tutorials and that's a very cool thing to look forward to.
I’m a longtime switch axe main but I’ve always been interested in this weapon. It just seemed to complicated back in the day but now that they simplified it, I’m going to occasionally bring this on hunts instead. I just made the Amatsu horn and I’ve got a couple other decent ones. Really fun and I like having that support role aspect as well. Thanks for the tips
Got my hh set pretty much done. Attack 7 Wex 3 Speed sharpen 3 Slugger 3 Crit boost 2 Stam theif 2 Horn maestro Unless I can get a better charm than slugger 3,stamina theif 2 with a 2 slot. Also a nice combo loop I use. X+a(pound)...a(kick)...X( 3 hit pound)...A looping kickback to X again to earth shaker. Not the biggest damage combo, but the loop does hold the player steadily in front of your target. No messing with any directional this and that. Fantastic on knock downs and focussing on parts. Love your content. Keep it coming.
Excellent guide, Gaijin! Also wanted to mention, I've been using your Felyne Dual Blade build and it is a lot of fun! Also deceiving in how powerful it can be.
Aaaah the Gaijin tutorials are back!!! Wohoooooo!! :D I missed them so much! Thank you for taking your time to create them. Even the presentations and intro are the same! This takes me back to the good ol' days of MH3G/U and MH4G/U
This type of tutorial is pretty neat. The MH GenU tutorials were often really long, because they included so much stuff about every weapon. Which made understanding everything in one go almost impossible and looking for specific things after trying out the weapon a chore. I don't know how many times I heard the "This is my Generations tutorial, but you can find the new Styles and Arts later in the video" intro while looking for the part I wanted to rewatch :D
Thanks for the very easy explanation of the basic kit for HH Gaijin. A lil addendum for your part at 6:43 about draw attacks. While yes, the normal X, A, and X+A inputs are a 2 step process for hunters to choose which note they want to start with, they can also initiate a draw attack by doing a perform (ZR) while the weapon is sheathed (in the event of a wirefall or a change of location) just a lil something that can also be done that might've been missed, I'm not too sure how many hunters actually engage the monsters with a perform but its there (prob more useful when your get the 1st switch skill so you can preload b4 fighting the monster, which wouldn't be mentioned this video)
I just wanna let you know that you really nailed the length and content of this tutorial. I heard in the third fleet podcast that providing the right amount of info compressed in a relatively short video is challenging but i think you hit the sweet spot.
I really missed you're tutorials and I'm more than glad that you are back to mh on UA-cam and doing all that stuff for us. Keep that amazing work on. Always great to watch a new video of yours
I've been enjoying the HH so much, it's the only weapon I've been using so far. I'm usually a SnS main but this generation has made HH flow so smoothly I can't resist the HH toot and bonk.
"Ok we need to make every weapon more popular and fun to play" "What if we made them broken as all hell and stylish" "John?" "Yes?" "Congratulations on your promotion"
I'm going to assume that this conversation happened circa Generations, because that was the obvious intent back then. Wirebugs have even been compared to Hunter Arts.
@@LJAndrews1986 yeah even regular moves are from gen/gu. The recital from rise is the adept recital/ invigoration hunter art from gu. The magnificent trio almost looks exactly like the valor recital. I understand that Rise borrowed a lot from gu, I just think weapons feel more stylish in general with new additions and overall improvements to the base moveset, as opposed to GU where hunter arts kinda felt like optional "super moves" in most cases.
Fantastic HH guide; it matches a lot of what I've seen while playing HH in Rise. I missed this style of tutorial too. Looking forward to more weapon tutorials!
Great guide Gaijin Hunter! I've been using HH since Tri and this helped me grow into the big changes they did to HH in Rise. I've been enjoying using the Echo mode Switch Skill since it's closer to the older playstyle that I enjoy. I'm looking forward to your guide on the Switch Skills!
My little nephew has been playing with me this time around and I was debating getting super powerful and carrying him or finally learning hunting horn so thank you very much for this guide.
For elemental damage or status effect, you'll want a similar combo to the one at 3:10, but replace the Left Swing with a Kick Up(A). It's the same number of hits in less time, so for fixed values like element and status, it's a bit better. The potentially infinite combo goes: Forward Smash->Kick Up->Multi-crush Forward X->A->X
So happy to see my HH tutorial up first! TYSM! I was hoping for some KO and Exhaust numbers xD but I'm guessing that's in a later video with songs etc xD
5:28 "You don't need to have all three music notes on the music staff, either" - not quite. The trigger for readying the Magnificent Trio is for all three colour notes to be on the music staff simultaneously at any one point. If the newest note pushes one of the other colours off the staff entirely, you don't ready the Magnificent Trio, even if you would have otherwise played every note colour. Not that this is a problem or makes it much harder to work with, granted. But it's worth noting. Once it is readied, however, you are free to do what you want as it will never be consumed without you executing the attack in full. Even if you get interrupted, you can try again, so that's nice, at least.
After playing a lot of hunting horn in world, using this weapon in rise felt really awkward but simultaneously soo great. Its so fluent now, i havent used any other weapon in rise by now:D i love my doot stick
thank you for the wonderful guide! I am a LS/GS user since previous iterations of monster hunter games and right now I wanna try something new and it will be hunting horn. :)
Amaizing video, short and to the point, very clear and well executed as always. Your videos were the ones that helped me to understand and play mh4u (my first one) so thanks for the thousands of hours of fun. The idea of separating the switch skills into another video seems great for new players but only time will tell. Meanwhile, only 2 notes (hehe). About the magnificent trio, the wording could be a little bit clearer about the need to play the 3 notes, it isn't clear that the 3 notes have to be in the "partiture", or whatever is called the 4 notes arrengement at the top, at the same time. Also, just as a personal preference I need to say that I liked better the cuts in your older videos, this style is more fluid but the cuts that you did in other guides helped a lot more to ilustrate what are you talking about in an specific moment, because when you don't know the weapon, some inputs aren't super clear (like the dual blades). The general timing you're using in this video seems ok but, again as a personal preference, I think it could be tighter. Other than that great video as always, and even if I know a lot more of this game, to this day your content is always helpful, enjoyable and a great inspiration. Thank you.
You also helped me to develop (for monsters hunter) and reinforce (to a lot of other games) the mentality of "play with the things that you have fun" that I have today. Thanks for that too.
@@KaiPerspective thanks for the feedback. The issue with the timing of stuff on screen vs what im saying ill try to improve. this was a result of doing the audio first. Good advice to split it up better though!
Thanks alot for another fantastic video and guide Gaijen. It's thanks to you years ago that I kept trying to learn old HH, until it eventually clicked, it's been one of my favourite weapons and adept HH in GU is my addiction. I've been so excited for the change but the hype died down after release. I kept looking at every guide to see if I'm missing something, or doing something wrong. I wanted to wait for your tutorial and here it is. I'm happy to say I'm no longer confused, but I'm really sad to realize that I absolutely do not like new HH. You yourself said that you could do whatever combos you like, and I really do not like that. if it all does similar damage with slightly different angles, I really don't see why I should care about doing the combos, which is something I loved about old horn. You have a few moves each with its own trajectory, but you have songs to guide which moves you plan to do next. And speaking of songs, the new song system is just sad to play with, I find myself doing one of each attack the perform, or magnificent trio, and violla all 4 songs! now what? it's so easy to keep the songs to the point where I don't see why they just don't become a permanent passive buff for you, that doesn't apply for active buffs like heals but they're also so easy it hardly matters. I really find myself finding no joy, challenge or satisfaction from mindless button mashing even after learning kick up and some other moves. no satisfaction from lining up songs and decking a wyvern in the face with a big recital hit, I miss strong perform attacks. by all means this is a success for the weapon, except for a few people like me. its great seeing this awesome weapon get the love it always deserved but I find myself not enjoying rise much as a whole because no weapon fills the void that HH once did. I've tried all weapons, I like most but none stand out. I waited for this guide to see one thing thay could change my mind but sadly no, this weapon is no longer for me. Hope everyone has an absolute blast dooting and booting. maybe a compromise with at least the singing system next game is enough for me, I'd hope but I'll be holding out for years.
I'm absolutely in love with the HH in Rise, it's more fun to use than ever! Honestly, when I first saw the reveal, I did not dig the Slide Beat move at all. I thought the trade-off from losing your health just to tank through attacks for some hits is just not worth it, it feels suicidal even. But I was so wrong and it's a move I cannot live without now. It's so useful to close in on the monsters, especially the fast ones like Magnamalo that hopscotch all over the place and likes to spray its hellfire dust around, which I could just quickly bypass with the Slide Beat while aiming for the head at the same time. Also great for going through roars, so I don't even needs Earplugs skill or song for that. I still don't use Slide Beat to tank through attacks that much, but since you can quickly heal yourself back from such minor injuries, I still do it from time to time. However, I just wish they would let you remove just the "notes" in the HUD settings, because it's blocking the view a little and can get annoying at times. I know you can remove the "weapon info" but that removes everything, including the Magnificent Trio and Infernal Melody icons, which I still need to see when they're ready to be used. I just don't need the notes because they're easy to remember. I really hope Capcom can make this minor adjustment that will vastly improve the HH's usage by miles at some point.
For new players to the series, I think they will really like hunting horn in rise. For me personally though (I'm a long time veteran and main of hunting horn) I really don't like hunting horn in rise, It's a bit to simplified for my liking. I think mhw and mhgu are the best versions of hunting horn. They're just as flashy and cool as rise but still complex. Just my opinion though, I'm not trying to spread hate. More hunting horn users, whether in rise or others, are always welcome.
"Hunting horn has had a revamp and many quality of life focused improvements!" Outstanding "... and is shaping up to become one of the most popular weapons in the game!" Unfortunate
I’d love to run with a squad of all horns with different buffs. But most of the time u end up having a bunch of attack boost songs being played on top of each other.
Not played rise yet since I didn’t own a switch, now it’s coming to Xbox I feel the need to watch these vids, it’s going to be weird not having to choose an opening to play your buffs, but think it might bring more players to HH as it’s such an underrated weapon
It’ll be interesting to see how this develops over the life of the game-what new songs will show up, will they add other switch skills outside of a major expansion, etc.
Note; I mispoke about one thing; to get the Magnificent Trio to become available you do need to have 1 of each color not in the music staff, but you don't require it to be like that when you activate it. I guess I have only ever purposely went for a triple note combo so i never noticed! Sorry!
regardless, this video is super in-depth and really shows the weapon in an amazing light. nice work!
Oh ok.
Additional info on the Infernal Melody as well:
If the buff is in effect due to it already played by your teammates, you are not allowed to perform that mechanic, which meant you have to start queuing on when to play the infernal melody.

Well, the HH has been changed in Rise so you might actually find this video very informative, sweetheart
I've been playing since freedom unite but I still learn lots of new things
The fact that you've played it since 2010 is pretty meaningless since it has changed so much in its last interactions.

i miss ur tutorials bro, welcome back
Perfect timing, I was just looking for a guide for hunting horn!
Finally, the thing that introduced me to gaijin, WEAPON TUTORIAL!! been watching your tutorial since 4u
What a magnificent video! Thank you for doing this, got a lot out of this than any tutorial out there!
IT'S STARTING!!! 💕
Something i really appreciate from Gaijin Hunter 's tutorial videos is the motion value listed , no other MH tubers bother to show that
he said that since rise will have updates, stating what the current MVs are on an attack may change, and become confusing down the line.
Weapon Tutorials! Woot! and starting with the Hunting Horn?! DOUBLE WOOT!
For elemental damage or status effect, you'll want a similar combo to the one at 3:10, but replace the Left Swing with a Kick Up(A). It's the same number of hits in less time, so for fixed values like element and status, it's a bit better. The potentially infinite combo goes:
Forward Smash->Kick Up->Multi-crush
Forward X->A->X
Fair warning, this will absolutely drain your sharpness bar.
So happy to see my HH tutorial up first! TYSM! I was hoping for some KO and Exhaust numbers xD but I'm guessing that's in a later video with songs etc xD
Man, i miss old hunting horn... hope you guys still have fun with it though.
The Return of the King
5:28 "You don't need to have all three music notes on the music staff, either" - not quite. The trigger for readying the Magnificent Trio is for all three colour notes to be on the music staff simultaneously at any one point. If the newest note pushes one of the other colours off the staff entirely, you don't ready the Magnificent Trio, even if you would have otherwise played every note colour. Not that this is a problem or makes it much harder to work with, granted. But it's worth noting.
Once it is readied, however, you are free to do what you want as it will never be consumed without you executing the attack in full. Even if you get interrupted, you can try again, so that's nice, at least.
Wow this takes me back to when I first sub to you, this video reminds me the days you make guides for 3U and 4U. Very Nice.
After playing a lot of hunting horn in world, using this weapon in rise felt really awkward but simultaneously soo great. Its so fluent now, i havent used any other weapon in rise by now:D i love my doot stick
thank you for the wonderful guide! I am a LS/GS user since previous iterations of monster hunter games and right now I wanna try something new and it will be hunting horn. :)
Yes!!! Love your weapon tutorials man!
As a HH main, this tutorial is very well done. Looking forward for more weapon tutorials from you, as I want to try more weapons!
Amaizing video, short and to the point, very clear and well executed as always.
Your videos were the ones that helped me to understand and play mh4u (my first one) so thanks for the thousands of hours of fun.
The idea of separating the switch skills into another video seems great for new players but only time will tell.
Meanwhile, only 2 notes (hehe). About the magnificent trio, the wording could be a little bit clearer about the need to play the 3 notes, it isn't clear that the 3 notes have to be in the "partiture", or whatever is called the 4 notes arrengement at the top, at the same time.
Also, just as a personal preference I need to say that I liked better the cuts in your older videos, this style is more fluid but the cuts that you did in other guides helped a lot more to ilustrate what are you talking about in an specific moment, because when you don't know the weapon, some inputs aren't super clear (like the dual blades).
The general timing you're using in this video seems ok but, again as a personal preference, I think it could be tighter.
Other than that great video as always, and even if I know a lot more of this game, to this day your content is always helpful, enjoyable and a great inspiration.
Thank you.
You also helped me to develop (for monsters hunter) and reinforce (to a lot of other games) the mentality of "play with the things that you have fun" that I have today. Thanks for that too.
@@KaiPerspective thanks for the feedback. The issue with the timing of stuff on screen vs what im saying ill try to improve. this was a result of doing the audio first. Good advice to split it up better though!
@@gaijinhunter Omg I know that it's only a yt response but seeing it made me very happy and nervous hahaha.
Can't wait to find out what I missed about all the weapons I thought I had all figured out!
Hell yeah! Nothing to say, just crazy happy to see a tutorial from you
Thanks alot for another fantastic video and guide Gaijen. It's thanks to you years ago that I kept trying to learn old HH, until it eventually clicked, it's been one of my favourite weapons and adept HH in GU is my addiction.
I've been so excited for the change but the hype died down after release. I kept looking at every guide to see if I'm missing something, or doing something wrong. I wanted to wait for your tutorial and here it is.
I'm happy to say I'm no longer confused, but I'm really sad to realize that I absolutely do not like new HH. You yourself said that you could do whatever combos you like, and I really do not like that. if it all does similar damage with slightly different angles, I really don't see why I should care about doing the combos, which is something I loved about old horn. You have a few moves each with its own trajectory, but you have songs to guide which moves you plan to do next.
And speaking of songs, the new song system is just sad to play with, I find myself doing one of each attack the perform, or magnificent trio, and violla all 4 songs! now what? it's so easy to keep the songs to the point where I don't see why they just don't become a permanent passive buff for you, that doesn't apply for active buffs like heals but they're also so easy it hardly matters.
I really find myself finding no joy, challenge or satisfaction from mindless button mashing even after learning kick up and some other moves. no satisfaction from lining up songs and decking a wyvern in the face with a big recital hit, I miss strong perform attacks.
by all means this is a success for the weapon, except for a few people like me. its great seeing this awesome weapon get the love it always deserved but I find myself not enjoying rise much as a whole because no weapon fills the void that HH once did. I've tried all weapons, I like most but none stand out. I waited for this guide to see one thing thay could change my mind but sadly no, this weapon is no longer for me. Hope everyone has an absolute blast dooting and booting.
maybe a compromise with at least the singing system next game is enough for me, I'd hope but I'll be holding out for years.
GUYS HE DID THE THING!
THE INTRO! HE ADDED THE INTRO AGAIN!
Long have we waited!
I'm absolutely in love with the HH in Rise, it's more fun to use than ever!
Honestly, when I first saw the reveal, I did not dig the Slide Beat move at all. I thought the trade-off from losing your health just to tank through attacks for some hits is just not worth it, it feels suicidal even. But I was so wrong and it's a move I cannot live without now. It's so useful to close in on the monsters, especially the fast ones like Magnamalo that hopscotch all over the place and likes to spray its hellfire dust around, which I could just quickly bypass with the Slide Beat while aiming for the head at the same time. Also great for going through roars, so I don't even needs Earplugs skill or song for that. I still don't use Slide Beat to tank through attacks that much, but since you can quickly heal yourself back from such minor injuries, I still do it from time to time.
However, I just wish they would let you remove just the "notes" in the HUD settings, because it's blocking the view a little and can get annoying at times. I know you can remove the "weapon info" but that removes everything, including the Magnificent Trio and Infernal Melody icons, which I still need to see when they're ready to be used. I just don't need the notes because they're easy to remember.
I really hope Capcom can make this minor adjustment that will vastly improve the HH's usage by miles at some point.
Love it! Tutorials are back! 😁
For new players to the series, I think they will really like hunting horn in rise. For me personally though (I'm a long time veteran and main of hunting horn) I really don't like hunting horn in rise, It's a bit to simplified for my liking. I think mhw and mhgu are the best versions of hunting horn. They're just as flashy and cool as rise but still complex. Just my opinion though, I'm not trying to spread hate. More hunting horn users, whether in rise or others, are always welcome.
Been waiting for this!! Looking forward to your other weapon tutorials 😁😁 Stay safe!!
Im desperately waiting for all the tutorial. Thank you sir!
"Hunting horn has had a revamp and many quality of life focused improvements!"
Outstanding
"... and is shaping up to become one of the most popular weapons in the game!"
Unfortunate
I’d love to run with a squad of all horns with different buffs. But most of the time u end up having a bunch of attack boost songs being played on top of each other.
Not played rise yet since I didn’t own a switch, now it’s coming to Xbox I feel the need to watch these vids, it’s going to be weird not having to choose an opening to play your buffs, but think it might bring more players to HH as it’s such an underrated weapon
I love your tutorial series.
It’ll be interesting to see how this develops over the life of the game-what new songs will show up, will they add other switch skills outside of a major expansion, etc.
Oh here weee gooo, Gaijin is OFFICIALLY back in business! The 2015 and onwards viewer in me is squealing with joy.
Thanks a lot. Tip top tutorial. Most fun weapon for me. Always loved it but never mained it until rise.
rise is making it hard to be a hipster while playing my old favorite weapon
