Hunting Horn in Monster Hunter Wilds: Which Skills To Get?
The following are some of the end-game weapon and armor skills that you need to unlock to have the greatest time playing as a wielder of the Hunting Horn.
Weapon Skills
- Critical Boost (Level 3): This is a simple skill that increases the amount of damage your critical hits deal. Although the effects are simple, they can have a major impact during your hunts.

- Horn Maestro (Level 2): This is a skill you’ll want to get if you are the primary support in your group. With the Horn Maestro skill, your melodies will go on for significantly longer periods. This would mean that you and your friends will receive more healing during the melodies. This can make all the difference in fights with late-game monsters. Weapons, such as the War Conga and the Dosha Farsounder II, have this skill attached to them.
- Stamina Thief (Level 3): With this skill equipped, your attacks will tire monsters out quicker, filling their exhaust meter.

- Weakness Exploit (Level 5): With this skill, you will gain a boost to your affinity every time you’re able to strike at weak points of monsters. The affinity increases even further when striking on open wounds. At Level 5, this skill is maxed out. It will offer +30% affinity when hitting weakened points. On striking wounds, the affinity increases by a further 20%.
