This is a comprehensive list of all sources of effects that directly affect and interact with melee {{sai|Unarmed Strike|Unarmed Strikes}}.

== General information ==
*A source can cause different effects as part of its mechanic, but this article lists only the unarmed strike related portion.
*Items listed in this article do not include mundane gear pieces of common quality and basic enchanted versions thereof.
*If a condition is incurred by a singular source (for ex. a class feature), this article lists that singular source. Otherwise only the condition is documented.
*For conditions caused by gear-exclusive passives and actions, the gear item takes precedence over the passive or action in the list.

== General effects ==
