| Appeared in | MHF2, MHFU, MH3, MHP3, MH3G, MHFO | |
| Description | ||
| A common status effect that causes a gradual loss of health over a period of time. Once the poison has worn off, the red portion of your health bar will recover slowly. Depending on the monster and the difficulty of the quest, the poison can drain the health bar at a faster rate than normal and last longer. The duration of a poison can be increased, decreased, or negated altogether with an appropriate skill. Poison is indicated visually by purple bubbles emitting from the victim. | ||

| Description | ||
| A status effect that completely immobilizes you for a certain amount of time. Upon being paralyzed, a hunter will fall down on their face (or remain motionless in an arched position underwater) and yellow sparks of lightning will be seen passing through their body. The duration of paralysis can be increased, decreased, or negated altogether with an appropriate skill. There is nothing a hunter can do but to wait for the paralysis to wear off or for certain attacks to send them flying. This status effect had been previously known as "Stun" in the early Monster Hunter games, but has recently been referred to as "Paralysis" to better differentiate it from the ailment caused by Flash Bombs and hammer attacks. | ||

| Appeared in | MHF2, MHFU, MH3, MHP3, MH3G, MHFO | |
| Description | ||
| Some monsters have the potential to put hunters to sleep. It is similar to paralysis in that it leaves the player unable to do anything. However, damage taken when asleep is greatly increased and will end the status after one hit. The duration of sleep can be increased, decreased, or negated altogether with an appropriate skill. In MH3, P3rd and 3G, you do not immediately fall asleep when sleep is inflicted. Instead, the hunter will become drowsy allowing an Energy Drink to be used if the player is fast enough, negating the effect before passing out. | ||

| Occurs when a player takes many hits in a short period of time. When stunned/knocked out, you will become unable to move and swirling stars are seen above the character's head. All monsters can inflict stun by means of repeated physical attacks, but some monsters can inflict it immediately by emitting an extremely bright flash of light or another special technique. When a monster is inflicted with it by use of a Flash Bomb, it attacks randomly until the effect wears off and if inflicted by repeated hammer attacks, the monster stays down for some time. The duration of the stun can be increased, decreased, or negated altogether with an appropriate skill. By rotating the analog stick used for movement in a circular motion and tapping the evasion button, the player can snap out of it much faster. | ||

Movement isn't hindered, but hunters affected by slime suffer a damaging explosion if struck by a monster, or if the slime isn't rid of quickly by rolling a few times. Even blocked attacks can inflict this status. When affected, all blocking attempts will also fail so it is advised to pay attention to the status icons next to the hunter's name.
The Bombardier skill grants a 1.2 multiplier to the status' potency. This isn't seen on the weapon's profile itself, but can be seen on the Status screen under the Hunter's raw attack power. | ||

Elemental Effects
Edit
In Monster Hunter 3, Monster Hunter Portable 3rd and Monster Hunter 3 G certain monster attacks can inflict status conditions known collectively as blights. The higher the Element Resistance on your armor against the corresponding element, the less likely the blight will be inflicted upon being hit. But the lower the Element Resistance on your armor against the corresponding element, the element attack used on you will always be severe. They can all be negated with the skill Blightproof.
