New buff/debuff

[bold needle]

We already have statuses that increase/decrease damage from weapons (Fury/Weaken), and direct damage overall (Protect/Expose). But we don’t have this for Dot effects (Poison/Acid/Fire)

Would it be possible to have those statuses?

Buff on yourself to decrease Dot damage on you.
Debuff on your opponent to increase Dot damage on them.

So, an in-fight feature that replaces the current charms for those „effects“?
Would this be something that you want the knight or heroes to be able to use? 🤔

It doesn’t really replace, it adds to it. Like Expose increases the damage you deal to the enemy but you can also increase your hero damage with charms.

I don’t understand the second question. If it’s a status, it could be applied either with a weapon, or with a hero.

But we also have the increased dmg for fire, acid and poison through charms.
That’s why I wanted to understand what you meant by your proposal.

So, instead of a basic dmg multiplier through charms, you want to have an additional option throughout the fight to deal more e. g. poison dmg?
If your opponent has 1 poison dot stacked, then you want to be able to deal e.g 1,5 x dmg through poison, or am I understanding it wrong?

[bold needle]

Yes exactly. Same calculation as for Expose with hero charms.

I’d love the possibility to mitigate an enemy’s Acid damage with some fighting tactics such as using a specific hero or weapon to trigger that buff at the right moment
