Poison is probably the most famous status effect, and with a reason! I think that it's a really good status effect. While poison weapons usually have lower attack than other ones, they're still able to stand on their own (unlike those horrible paralyisis weapons). My favorite would be the L. Narga Gunlance (why wasn't it in this DotW again?) because of the sheer brutality of that weapon. High sharpness, affinity and poison that doesn't even need awakening to be used. Truly a force to be reckoned with.

As for monsters, Gigginox is my absolute nightmare, even more so than Lucent Narga or any of the raptors. It simply destroys you with yur poison, and it's the monster that made me fear the Tundra harvest tour in Low Rank. Great Wroggi is actually adorable to me, I dunno, I just find it so cute :3
