With it, players can make a Sound Wave Bomb, which fires a high-frequency wave that will allow gamers to fend off small monsters and other large ones.

For large beasts, "Monster Hunter XX" has the Renkin Earplug, which protects players from the roar of these gargantuan monsters once.

There is also the Speed Medicine, which gives players the ability to throw Great Renkin Barrels fast and increases speed in Renkin Style.
