Attack Style
Attack styles are the form of damage being dealt to the player or by the player.
Most weapons the player will use have an Attack style, some monsters will use a set attack style to which they are immune, but in turn will make them weak to another. This also goes in the same direction for the Player, as certain Armors will give you different strengths and weaknesses.
Types | Opposite Style | ||
---|---|---|---|
Impact | Impact | ||
Cryonae | Arborae | ||
Arborae | Infernae | ||
Tempestae | Tempestae | ||
Infernae | Tempestae | ||
Necromae | Cryonae |
Certain weapons have a % of how often they will hit with a specific style. In the example on the right, you can see Tempestae has a 34% chance of hitting with this weapon this means roughly 1/3 hits will be with Tempestae damage.
This is a great weapon vs Goblins who fight with Infernae, on the other side of the coin, it is practically useless against Hairbeast, of which are immune to Tempestae, this would cause 1/3 of your hits to be 0's.
Most weapon types have their own attack style. Use the below table to find the correct fit for your next grind:
Weapon and Style | |
---|---|
Sword | |
Halberd | |
Stone Mace | |
Kanabo | |
Plumbatae | |
Monster Weaknesses
You can find a monsters weakness by hovering over their photo during a fight, or by finding the monster under the 'Combat' profession in your Professions tab, the monsters weakness can only be found if you have killed one and 'discovered' it's weakness.
