Affinity is a statistic that helps determine how much chance a weapon has to deal additional damage in Monster Hunter World. It's really important to the meta of balance and has a larger impact on the tail end of the game and the high-end, high-rank hunts in particular. If you need more help with other complex bits of the game beyond Affinity we've got a full Monster Hunter World guide - check it out!
Affinity can be positive or negative - meaning that a weapon with negative affinity will actually be more likely to do 'weak' hits that have reduced damage. Meanwhile, a weapon with a high affinity stat will have a higher chance to do an extremely damaging critical hit - and in some instances and builds, crits can even be guaranteed in certain situations. Every weapon in the game has its own unique Affinity statistic - these can be a neutral value of zero or can be positive or negative.
Don't write off all weapons with a negative affinity value - for there's more to it than that. A major part of balancing out your Affinity comes in the form of Armor Skills.

It is worth noting that while a monster sleeps, it regains lost health. However, an added advantage of putting a monster to sleep is that the next attack dealt to it deals triple damage.
Placing and detonating bombs on a sleeping enemy will give it a devastating wake-up call. Attacks on a monster's head will cause a yellow shockwave, and when this is done enough times, the monsters will become stunned, much like a hunter would.
Monsters are helpless and vulnerable when KO'd, and most of them will fall over, allowing certain parts to be hit more easily. When hitting a monster with a Slime element weapon, the attack impact will light up with three different colors, starting from green to yellow to red. When it reaches red and a few more hits are made, the next hit will cause an explosion, dealing blast damage on the target monster.
