Sleep has to be one of my favorites, as in Unite I'd use Sleep Coatings on my bow and a few bombs in the target's face to start off a fight.

Poison has to be one of my least favorites, though, as there have been too many times where an attack that also poisoned me brought my health down too low for me to drink a potion in time. I'd appreciate it if they changed Poison to stop when the person is a 1hp, but where's the challenge in that, I guess.

Blights are... interesting. They're a nuisance to deal with on your own, but in Tri, whenever I join an Alatreon fight, I love using my Qurupeco+ Armor with Wide Area +2 and just acting as support, curing everyone of their blights and using potions to heal them when they're in trouble. So yeah, they're annoying, but they add a layer of depth to gameplay that I've found great enjoyment from.
