Thunderblight Status Ailment Explained

Increases Likelihood of Being Stunned

When the hunter is inflicted with Thunderblight, they are highly likely to get stunned easily. Make sure to consume a Nulberry to get rid of the Thunderblight quickly before heading back to the fight.

List of Status Effects

Getting Stunned is More Frequent on High Rank

When doing High Ranked Quests and facing tougher monsters, hunters get stunned more instead of getting Thunderblight!

Consume a Nulberry and heal up when getting hit by blights on higher ranked quests to avoid getting incapacitated during battles.

Status Ailments Wear Off Over Time

Status ailments like Thunderblight will wear off naturally over time, however allowing it to do so means taking all of the damage it inflicts while in effect, so make sure to always have a Nulberry in your inventory!

Cure Thunderblight by Using Nulberries

To cure Thunderblight, hunters simply need to use a Nulberry.

If you don't have Nulberries, you can still get rid of Thunderblight by rolling on the ground, similar to how you get rid of Fireblight.

List of All Items and Materials

Can You Thunderblight Monsters?

You Cannot Directly Inflict Thunderblight

Hunters cannot inflict Blights on monsters, even with Elemental Weapons. Using a Thunder-Element Weapon does not allow players to inflict the blight of the corresponding element.

Previous Games had Ways to Inflict Thunderblight

In the previous game, Monster Hunter: Rise and Sunbreak had Endemic Life that allowed players to inflict Blights, as well as the Wyvern Ride mechanic that allowed players to use monster attacks to inflict blight.
