When going up against strong monsters, having various items at your disposal is just as important as having knowledge and skills. Here's a list of a few of the items that will be available to you.

Useful Items
Potion
Restores some of your hunter's Health. Potions are essential items when hunting, so make sure you're always fully-stocked when going out on a Quest.
Cool Drink
Provides relief from extreme heat and stops Health from dropping. Bring some of these before venturing into hot areas.
Hot Drink
Provides relief from extreme cold and stops Stamina loss. Bring some of these before venturing into cold areas.
Whetstone
Restores Sharpness to melee weapons. Repeatedly using melee weapons will dull their Sharpness, so sharpen them regularly.
Paintball
A monster's location will be displayed on the map for a set time if they are hit by this. Paint Shots have the same effect.
Shock Trap/Pitfall Trap
Traps that are used to temporarily immobilize monsters. These traps don't always work, however. They cannot be used on certain terrain, and their efficacy varies depending on the type of monster that enters the trap and the monster's condition at the time.
Barrel Bomb S/Barrel Bomb L
You can do lots of damage to monsters by using Barrel Bombs. But be careful where you set them; your fellow hunters can take damage if they're caught in the blast radius. There are two types of barrel bombs: a smaller time-detonated type and a larger type that is detonated upon impact.
Flash Bomb
Throw this at a monster's face to temporarily blind it. However, depending on the monster, Flash Bombs might have the reverse effect and cause it to grow more violent.
Sonic Bomb
Throw this to send out a high-frequency sound that renders certain monsters defenseless. It can also be used to lure out monsters that lurk beneath the ground.
Nulberry
A berry that can cure various Blights. When infected with the Frenzy, a Nulberry can be used to slow its effects.
Well-done Steak
Restores some of your hunter's Stamina. You can also recover from Bleeding if you eat one of these.
