This is my favourite Horn so far. It has a cool sound and actually looks like it could be a weapon.
People say HH's shouldn't be used as "Support" weapons, but I really enjoy playing the healing melodies. Pulling off 3 Health Recovery (L)'s with an Encore is nothing to sneeze at. I enjoy performing massive clutch heals or layering in some health recovery during the thick of a fight.
Earplugs are always a plus, especially large ones.
Scoutfly Power is fun when on expeditions, it's certainly not a selling point for this weapon but it's there.
