Useful Tips for Hunting Horn (HH):
----------------------------------
Written by CoJoe (Sinclair).
-=How to Apply Buffs
There are three "notes" you can play:
* Light Attack = LA
* Heavy Attack = HA
* Light / Heavy Attack Together = LHA
Pressing these in specific orders will add 'Melodies' to the music bar in the
top left. Pressing Weapon Special will 'Perform', playing whatever melodies
you have queued, in the order that you queued them, and applying the related
effect after each is played.
If you're interrupted in the middle it will simply cut the performance where
it was with whichever melodies had played than the remaining ones still in queue.
You can resume it again to continue where you left off.
-=Hope Horn Melodies (changes with weapon)=-
* LA+LA 'Self-Improvement'
Buff: A movement speed and non-deflect.
* LA+HA+LA 'Attack Up (S)'
Buff: Damage boost.
* LHA+HA+LA 'Fire Resist (S)'
Buff: Fire Resist.
* LHA+LHA+LHA 'Sonic Waves'
Effect: Forces monsters to the surface and similar such things.
* LA+HA+HA 'Echo Wave (Blunt)'
Spammable. High damage, blunt. SPAM THIS.
* LHA+HA+LHA+LA 'Offset Melody'
This Melody needs more explaining since it functions different from the others.
You don't have to 'Perform' to use it — it's ready as soon as you tap out the
sequence. You must play it again after every use.
Hold Weapon Special + LHA to prime, release to fire.
-=There Are Two "Tiers" of Buffs=-
Yellow buff text means tier 1, purple means tier 2. To get them to tier 2 you
can do two different things:
* Play the buff twice (bad)
* Play the buff, and press LHA 'Encore' as it ends. (good)
You can press 'Encore' after after one melody, to end the performance early and
buff it to Tier 2, or do so at the very end to buff all of them. With this you
can apply multiple Tier 2 buffs with one performance.
If you press LHA, you can can apply multiple tier 2 buffs with only one performance.
-=There Are Several Ways to Chain Notes
* Melodies chain together. I.E. the last note from the previous can be the first note
for the next. LA+LA followed by HA+LA will queue both 'Self-Improvement' and 'Attack
Up (S)', with one less input.
* Multi-note hits. Holding a directional Key (W, A, S, D) when pressing either HA or
LHA gives the attack an extra swing, during which you can input an additional note
to the music bar for free.
* Hilt jabs. While an attack animation is ending, press 'Move Backward' + LA / HA /
LHA to perform a quick hilt jab and queue that note to the music bar.
-=You Can Apply Buffs While Riding Your Seikret=-
Pull your horn out by pressing light attack while riding, then as you swing, press
whichever note you want to play.
Keep tapping whichever following note you want until you've got all the notes you need,
then press Special to perform to apply them all.
-=When Starting a Fight=-
On your Seikret, play this:
* LHA+HA+LHA+LA+LA+HA+LA and LHA 'Encore' as it ends.
This will give you three separate things:
* LHA+HA+LHA+LA 'Offset Melody'
This isn't a buff; it's HH's parry move. You have to replay this sequence each
time you want to use it again.
* LA+LA 'Self-Improvement'
Movement speed and no-deflect buff.
* LA+HA+LA 'Attack Up'
Damage buff.
-=Echo Bubbles=-
Dodge + Weapon Special to place. Yes, they stack. Yes, they're strong. They'll do
different things depending on which horn you're using bug generally speaking they apply
a buff of some kind to allies inside it, and/or a debuff to monsters inside it.
Huge: When you attack a monster that is inside your echo bubble (s), your attacks will
deal bonus damage, even if you miss. Try to position these on the monsters sides and face.
-=Blunt Damage Stunts Monsters Easier=-
If you can, go for the head. You deal blunt damage which means it's easier for you to
stun monsters than it is for most weapon types.
-=The Easiest Way to Get Your Offset Attack=-
The easiest way to get your offset attack is either playing notes during your echo bubble
(you can input three) or during your wound attack (you can input five).
If neither are available, you can do this:
* LHA (Hit HA as your extra note on the downswing, cheating notes is a very important mechanic),
LHA, and then hold BACK on your joystick while pressing LA. This gets you all four notes without
having to use bubble/wound in less inputs than just playing each note individually.
* You can cheat notes on both the directional HA attack (press the second note of your choice
when the horn swings around) and on the directional LHA attack (press the second note of your
choice when the horn swings downwards).
* You can play three notes when you drop an echo bubble with NO timing, so if you want all
white notes, just spam LA as your guy does the little dance. Wound attacks are the same thing,
but there IS a timing, and it's 5 notes total.
* The best source of damage after you have applied buffs is spamming LA+HA+HA over and over
again while dropping echo bubbles on/near the monster. Be sure to encore for extra damage!
