Fainting during a hunt prompts Hunters with a choice to heal and continue or give up in Monster Hunter Now. Read on to learn all of the consequences of fainting during an encounter.

What Happens When You Faint?

Recover and Continue or Give Up

When a Hunter faints during a hunt, they can choose to continue hunting and recover using First-Aid Meds if available since these are always used first before Potions, or give up and get sent back to the overworld with 1 HP left. Always make sure to heal up whenever the health gauge is below 50% to avoid fainting during hunts.

How to Get Potion

Unable To Hunt With Low Health

Take note that Hunters with less than 30% Health are unable to hunt as a restriction, so make sure to have an ample supply of First-Aid Meds and Potions before heading out on hunts.

How to Recover Health

Use Healing Items

Make sure to stock up on Potions and First-Aid Meds to use during high rank encounters. Avoid fainting and failing a mission by healing up when the health gauge reaches below 50%, or when taking damage over time due to status ailments.

Passively Heal with Health Regen

Aside from using recovery items, there is a Health Regen Mechanic that lets Hunters heal passively for 1% of their maximum HP every 36 seconds. It also takes an hour to heal up fully from 0 to 100 HP, so avoid fainting during hunts as much as possible to save time.
