Where do Hedge funds add most value?

Complete newbie here when it comes to hedge funds..Just wondering where do Hedge funds add most value?

With so much coverage of large cap equities etc. Where exactly do hedge funds most typically find attractive valuations/mispricings to justify their high costs?
