One of the PC's family was mauled by a pack of werewolves so has been hunting them.
They only have a silver holy symbol so I've been allowing them to use an action to run their sword/arrow on it to act like a kind of blade poison.
However, they've just been infected by lycanthropy, at what point do they gain the immunities? I.e if it's straight away then if the werewolf continues to attack then it wouldn't do any damage...
Hi,

What are people's thoughts.

In the MM, there is a sidebar in which it is specified what the PCs would gain from a lycanthropy. Yes, they would gain the damage immunities.
How long the curse needs for those benefits to happen is up to the DM.
