Waterblight is one of the status effects in Monster Hunter Wilds. Monsters that have this type of elemental damage produce aqueous attacks that put this status effect on your character.
Whereas Fireblight affects your health, Waterblight affects Stamina recovery. When your character is inflicted by Waterblight, you will get reduced Stamina Recovery.
Stamina will recover at at one third the normal rate. This effect lasts one minute which means you can end up losing the fights. The fastest you fix Waterblight the easier time you will have against enemies.
How to Cure Waterblight in MH Wilds
A Nulberry completely cures Waterblight and other elemental blights immediately. Nulberries have many uses, and should be saved for dire moments, when there is no other options but to use consumables to cure Waterblight or even Fireblight.
Waterblight will eventually fade, its time left will appear as a water droplet on your status bar. This process is less efficient though requires no resources.
You can fully circumvent this status effect by reaching level 3 Water Resistance, activating the Blight Resistance Skill, use the either the Blight Res Up or Blight Negated effects granted by the Hunting Horn, or equip the Waterproof Mantle.
Or, this can be offset by increasing your Stamina recharge via the Stamina Surge Skill.
