Fireblight Status Ailment Explained
Burns the Hunter's HP Over Time
Fireblight is a Status Ailment that is inflicted by monsters that can deal Fire Damage. Once in effect, the hunter is burned and loses their HP continuously while aflame.
The Ailment Will Wear Off Over Time
Fireblight will wear off naturally over time, however allowing it to do so means taking all of the damage it inflicts while in effect, which is not advisable.
Use a Nulberry to Heal the Status
Nulberry

|||
| Type | Hunting Item | Rarity | 2 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sell Price | 120 | Hold Limit | 10 |
| Description | |||
| A mysterious berry that cures various blights. | |||
A Nulberry will cure hunters of the status instantly when used, so be sure to carry some on hunts where you feel like Fireblight may become an issue.
Nulberry Location: How to Get and Uses
Dodge Roll to Reduce its Duration by 10 Seconds
Alternatively, players can spam the roll input to put the fire out. This may take a few rolls, but it will eventually dispel the status. Note that rolling in a wet area removes the status after one roll.
Sidesteps Can Reduce it by 5 Seconds Per Use
Sidestepping is a different evasive move than rolling and while it reduces fireblight per sidestep, it only reduces it by 5 seconds per use making it less effective than rolling. But it's a move you can use if you don't want to sheathe your weapon.
Interact with Purewasps
Purewasps are endemic life similar to Vigorwasps but instead of restoring HP, it will remove blights and status effects similar to a Nulberry. Be sure to interact with these endemic lives when you have a status effect ailing you.
Purewasp Location and How to Catch
Can Be Delivered to You By Palicoes
Palicoes can also deliver Purewasps to the hunter when they are suffering from status ailments. Be sure to listen to your palico's support actions to know if a Purewasp delivery is on the way.
How to Resist Fireblight
Have a Fire Resist of More Than 20
If your current Fire Res is higher than 20, you'll be immune to Fire Blight. This is effective when fighting against monsters that can dish out fire blight continuously so consider gearing up and increasing your Fire Res against these monsters.
Resistance Between 10 to 19 Reduces Affliction Rate
While not completely immune, having a Fire Res between 10 to 19 will reduce the rate of getting afflicted by Fire Blight. You'll still get afflicted if you get hit by Fireblight-inflicting attacks so caution is advised.
Blight Resistance Can Nullify Blights
 Blight Resistance
|
Grants protection against all elemental blights. |
The Blight Resistance skill can reduce the affliction rate of all blight attacks and can even nullify it at max level. Consider Blight Resistance if you're fighting monsters capable of inflicting these blights on you.
Can You Fireblight Monsters?
You Cannot Directly Inflict Fireblight
Hunters cannot inflict Blights on monsters, even with Elemental Weapons. Using a Fire-Element Weapon does not allow players to inflict the blight of the corresponding element.
