Combining these two ingredients will give you a Deodorant you can use to remove the Blastblight debuff during a fight. If you are effected with the status effect, you will get a 15 second window to remove it else you will suffer the effects. Make sure you use a Deodorant in this time frame.
How to prevent Blastblight status effect in Monster Hunter Wilds
You can prevent the status effect by using the following items:
- Antiblast Jewel (Level 3 Decoration)
- Blight Resistance Charm (Level 3)
Antiblast Jewel can be obtained randomly as a drop while fighting monsters. Keep in mind that only the Level 3 version of this item can negate the Blastblight debuff, while the lower leveled versions can delay the timer of the blast and reduces its damage. Given there is no confirmed way to obtain the Antiblast Jewel, you will need to keep farming till you obtain it.
The Blight Resistance Charm can be crafted and will require these items:
- Blangonga Pelt+ x 4
- Guardian Fulgur Pelt+ x 4
- Balahara Scale+ x 2
- Hirabami Scale+ x 2
As is the case with the Antiblast Jewel, only a Level 3 Blight Resistance Charm can fully neutralize the Blastblight debuff.
