Hunting Horn Mechanics Explained

Blunt Weapon That Uses Notes to Activate Songs and Buff Allies

Hunting Horn Battle

The Hunting Horn is a Blunt-type weapon that combines offensive attacks with supportive abilities through its Note and Melody system.

Each attack performed with the Hunting Horn generates a colored note, depending on the type of attack used. These notes are stored and can be arranged in specific combinations to activate powerful Melody skills.

Once the correct sequence of notes is played, Riders can perform special song attacks that provide effects such as party-wide buffs, healing, or powerful offensive attacks.

The Hunting Horn can store multiple notes at once, allowing players to plan their melody combinations before activating them during battle.

Hunting Horn Strengths

Hunting Horn Strengths



Provides Powerful Team Buffs

Hunting Horn Buff

The Hunting Horn can activate Melody skills that provide buffs to the entire party.

These buffs may increase attack power, improve survivability, or provide other helpful effects that benefit both the Rider and their allies.

Flexible Support and Damage

While the Hunting Horn is often used for support, it can still deal solid blunt damage during combat.

This allows Riders to contribute offensively while also providing valuable support effects.

Effective Blunt Damage

As a Blunt weapon, the Hunting Horn performs well against monster heads and other hard parts.

This allows players to break parts more easily while applying buffs to the team.

Unique Melody Skills

Hunting Horn Buff
Each Hunting Horn has its own set of Melody skills, which are activated by performing specific note combinations.

These melodies can create a variety of effects, allowing different Hunting Horns to support different team strategies.

Hunting Horn Weaknesses

Hunting Horn Weaknesses

Requires Note Setup

Hunting Horn Attack
To activate Melody skills, players must first generate specific note combinations through different attacks.

Because notes are produced by Speed, Power, and Technical attacks, Riders may need multiple turns to prepare the correct sequence before activating a melody.

This setup requirement can delay buffs compared to other weapons that can use their strongest abilities immediately.

More Complex Than Other Weapons

Compared to straightforward weapons like the Hammer, the Hunting Horn requires planning and proper note sequencing.

This additional complexity can make it more challenging for new players to use effectively.
