Attack Types are certain gameplay mechanics that determine the output of an attack's damage, targeting, or effect.
Damage Type[]
Damage is an attack type that refers to methods of reducing an enemy's health, each having specific ways of being reduced or ignored.
- Damage dealt that is able to interact with mechanics such as
DMG Focus, 
Damage Reflection, and 
Status not found is considered direct. - Damage dealt that CANNOT interact with the above mechanics is considered indirect.
| Name | Function | Description | Example(s) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Regular damage | Direct | Has no special interactions. DEF and DMG Resist reduces incoming damage. |  Brave Dash Don't Come Near!
|
| Critical damage | Direct | Amplifies regular damage due to CRIT%. CRIT Resist reduces critical damage. |  Cheap Shot (guaranteed)
|
| Relative damage | Varies | Damage dealt is based on the target's maximum health. Can cause critical damage. |  Arrow of Resolution
|
| True damage | Varies | Otherwise known as fixed damage. Typically dealt based off the target's maximum health and is impossible to reduce. Cannot cause critical damage. |  Shark Splash Corruption
|
| Bypassing Damage | Varies | Damage that can ignore a certain portion of DMG Resist. Can still be reduced by DEF. Can cause critical damage. |  Duskgloom's Sovereign
|
| Periodic damage | Indirect | Deals damage as time passes. Can cause critical damage. Ignores  HP Shields. |
 Burn Poison Corruption
|
| Reflected damage | Indirect | Damage that is returned to the attacker after being received. Cannot cause critical damage. | Red Velvet Dragon (passive) |
| Linked damage | Indirect | Additional proportional damage that is dealt to linked targets after the main linked target takes damage. Cannot cause critical damage. |  Almond Handcuffs
|
Misconceptions[]
There is a common misunderstanding between relative damage and true damage, due to how their descriptions are worded. Both damage types have a cap of 300,000 DMG and is dealt based on the target's maximum health. However, relative damage can be mitigated by various sources of damage reduction and deal critical damage, whereas true damage cannot do either (with the exception of Corruption, which can cause critical damage).
Targeting[]
