Monster Hunter 4: 8 Crucial Tips & Tricks The Game Doesn't Tell You

2. Roll To Get Rid Of Status Elements

There are numerous ways to combat the many status effects monsters will throw your way during a hunt. Nullberries and portable steam bombs will pretty much cure anything ailing you, but they're not exactly the most practical solution when a Gold Rathian is spamming fire attacks like something out of a pyromaniac's wet dream. The best thing to do is exactly what firemen say - stop, drop and roll.
